Ye can start on me legs.

Arrrr, I be another of them music playin' folk, unless I be getting something better to spend me time on. Me legs, they make good drum sticks until Mac or Annu be sewing 'em back on.

(How was that? I did it myself, so feel free to make fun.

)

(Oh, and I may change, but I wanted to make the joke about the legs)

Oops... I overlooked that we already had a surgeon... sign me up as cooper, then.

Nice? I wouldn't shout that. Powder Monkeys be said to have th' worst ship 'o th' crew 'n not treated much better than slaves. But avast, thar, all th' better fer me when a scallywag actually volunteers fer such an undesirable ship. Harrharr.

Arrr, then should I even dare ask how ye came to be malformed? I woe ye have jolly aim; I don't want no misfired cannons on me ship, ye hear?

Sounds to me ye need a carpenter, not a surgeon. We be havin' none yet, but surely thar's some scallywag who can make ye some fine peglegs.

Yarrr, indeed we do. One surgeon be quite that all I can take, if even that. 'Cuz ye be knowin' a carpenter or cook can just as easily saw off a pegleg any day, if need be. Cooper ye shall be.

Now if ye hold on a wee longer, I shall update th' crew list shortly.

Read that thar word as cobbler, me hearty!

PS. It's more fun not to use a translator.

Rikae · 06-09-2009, 03:35 PM

Arr.

If you still be in need o' a cabin boy, and don't partikilarly mind if he be neither male nor young, sign me up, cap'n. Garrr. Arrrgh. *cough* *sputter*

Nogrod · 06-09-2009, 06:49 PM

Hey ya cap'n, we really need this young chap! He's... erm... she's even more fashionably late than I was...

Does it mean she's truly avant-garde to be even later or just outfashioned?

Brinniel · 06-09-2009, 07:07 PM

Our crew has gotten large enough that we have need fer a second cook. Jolly thin' we have Short Ruth Mith comin' on aboard our ship. I hear she be known to make a mean salmagundi.

Thar be still room fer more hands on th' Grey Gaurhoth. We cannot set sail 'til thar be at least one carpenter enlisted (though a pair or more would be even better). After all, carpenter be one 'o th' most important 'o occupations. I cannot let me ship fall into disrepair. I could also still use more strikers. Wee use be a pair 'o cooks if thar be only one scurvy dog doin' th' huntin'.

Thar be spaces left fer more gunners 'n powder monkeys as well, though I prefer to have some hands sign up fer carpenter 'n striker first. We have plenty 'o musicians, so I gunna take no more fer th' time bein', unless someone can impress me wit' a jolly audition.

satansaloser2005 · 06-09-2009, 07:18 PM

Cap'n Brinn, if ye be needin' a carp'nt'r I could always use to be makin' meself a pair of legs!

Inziladun · 06-10-2009, 03:27 PM

A question about the ghosts: Will posts by them after they've passed on be somehow specially marked or notated, or is it just up to the living to try and remember who's dead?

Salma Gundy? Isn't that the actress who played Frieda Kahlo?

I was thinking more of rat yesterday, rat today and it looks like rat tomorrow

lots of grog though

Isabellkya · 06-10-2009, 02:31 PM

Whups. Didn't see that.

I'm all for hunting and gathering. Striker please. xD

satansaloser2005 · 06-14-2009, 10:12 PM

Thought it only right to point this out. I had to edit my more or less last post (the longer one where I listed everyone) to add in formatting and such and I realized that somehow there was nothing under Mac's name, so I put my thoughts in, or back in, or whatever the case was. I wanted to make sure to mention it because I edited the post and wanted to make sure everyone knew that was now there, just to be fair in case you missed it. Just an FYI.

K, shutting up now. G'night, folks!

satansaloser2005 · 06-17-2009, 09:09 PM

Hey there's a big storm brewing here so if I'm not here for the beginning of the Day it's because of that. Just to let you all know.
