Captain Nguyen. [crosses his arms] It's been years.

          And your lack of change since then is absolutely baffling- you’re still chasing people over a docking spot at the port like a loiterer, I’m assuming?

Even so. The bad hygeine may not be a crime in and of itself, but… the murdering, the plundering, the stealing… that all is. And I know you’ve no way to plead the belly.

……… [bitch u lucky copy machines don’t exist rn] [sighs as he puts the warrant down on the table] It is a royal warrant. Signed by Her Majesty. So in that sense, it is “good.” But… [another sigh] Don’t make me admit it…

          So she has everyone else’s crimes expunged but holds a silly little grudge on the few of us who have the balls to stand against her. She doesn’t have any plans after arrest, I’m certain.

          It could be made of her blood for all anyone cares, and it’s still useless if it’s shredded. [Swipes it, tearing it apart before flinging the pieces in his face] What, scared of being made fun of?

[swaggers in with a grin that’s clearly up to no good] The rum can’t be that bad. [slides in a spot next to her, looking around the tavern] What, too many rats got into the bread or something?

          The rum isn’t, but the mediocracy isn’t good enough to redeem the rest of it. [She whispers, as if these complaints haven’t been said before] Rats and dogs- the queen has her little pets crawling around all over the place.

You knew what you wanted years ago. You chased it. You failed. And now you’re here. And give that back. [grabs it back] You are under arrest for…

Murder, plundering, scavenging, bad hygeine, loitering, soliciting, and overall piracy. I don’t make the warrants. She does.

          Petty. [Frowns, now annoyed] No shit she does, she’s grabbing at literally any crime she can think of- bad hygiene- just to make me look bad.

          [Grabs the corner, ripping it off] If this was any good, you would’ve done something by now instead of waiting like a coward. But you haven’t.

Pirates rule, navy drools >:((((

Name: Lien Nguyen  (Lady Luck)

Age: 29

Role: Ex-pirate captain

Appearance: Despite her rather short stature, she's built securely and looks commanding from her life as captain with various scars and trophies from fights across her arms and face. She wears khakis. 

Backstory: Having lived as a noble for most of her early life, Lien had always wished for one full of more adventure, so she decided to do just that when she felt ready for it. Through various odd jobs and connections as well as people drawn to her drive, she became a captain of her own ship and crew even at the very beginning. However, as the course of life would take it, that very crew deemed her unfit to lead with her various injuries and attatchments to a few docking sites, thus leaving her there forcing her into retirement. Now she has a repair store.

I would dare argue that you’re much the same. Still preferring chicken nuggets and fries, or have you graduated to chicken tenders instead? [he sighs and runs a hand through his hair] No. I’m on hire for Her Majesty. And… [pulls out a warrant] You’re under arrest.

[lightenthisworld]

          Oh don't patronize me, I know what I want and I'm not afraid to get it, chicken nuggets or otherwise. [Sputters, snatching the warrant from his hand] Under arrest for what, talking shit? She can't handle a little dirt now? What a joke.

[lightenthisworld]

          [As soon as she spots him, she raises a hand like an officer] It's because I'm fond of you that I'm telling you to turn back: this whole place is awful.

          "I don't know why it ended up being so much more complicated than it needed to be,”   She grumbles as fingers tug at her fourth bandaid now, no doubt more being needed in the near future both for herself and her company. The plaster is shoved against his cheek, brows furrowed before she heaves another sigh to speak again, thumb fiddling to peel off the backing of another.   "You really ought to learn more about being discreet.”

Nah, it won’t explode. Just smell bad. [Once the gloves are off, she presses her hands in, letting out a small sigh as the creature begins to turn to gold.]

          [Watches her, preemptively pinching her nose] So do you ever do this sort of thing on accident?

[lightenthisworld]

Ludblitz

I suppose so. That only means that at some point, we’ll end up wiping out the entire facility. I am shocked it is still allowed to stand with such terrible security protocols.

… [tosses her the keys] You know the way better than I.

          I won’t complain if they make it shorter than we anticipated. Even with those precautions, I’m sure we’d get the same results if we really went for it.

          [Victory] [There’s a sort of triumphant smile as she snatches it mid-air] Good choice. Alright, let’s get going if we want to be back before dark.

[lightenthisworld]

Virtuousopulence

I”ll just transform it, I guess? [Puffs] It’s going to reek when the gold gets into the organs, I’ve tried this and it always sucks. [And a pause] Here, help me get my gloves off, will you? Just, roll them up and don’t touch my palms or fingers. They’re too gross to use my teeth.

          Wait, transform it? It isn’t going to go everywhere, is it? [Regardless, she fumbles with the requested garments, pulling them out of the way for her to work her magic]

[lightenthisworld]

Ludblitz

I suppose I will be. I worry more about you. You’re the one that must actually infiltrate and retrieve the item. I’m merely here to… “take out the goons.”

It is not my fault the GPS was wrong the entire way. [spins the keys around one finger, expression thoughtful] Though I suppose if you wish to drive… [jingles them above her head]

          I’ve done this countless times before; I’m surprised they haven’t tried to make security a bit tighter, but that makes things easier for us.

          Don’t treat me like a child. [She swats at it but when they don't reach, her features pale momentarily] .. Fine, if you want to drive so much then hurry up- you’re just wasting time!

[lightenthisworld]

Virtuousopulence

Was someone hunting from their window or some shit? This thing has a bullet in it. [She’s trying to yank a bullet out that she’s found. Ugh everything is making noises.]

Thanks though. I can’t move this whole.

          I’m not too sure myself, I just got a complaint about it from one of the legionnaires who either saw it or smelled it out in this heat. [Tugs at a pair of gloves, rolling up her sleeves as she shifts over to help] Wonderful...

          I don’t think this’ll stay in garbage bags to throw in the bin out back.

[lightenthisworld]

@ludblitz

I’ll not laugh too much if I were you. I’ve died twice already and am perfectly capable of dying once more… and not coming back. [now the knives are going into his boots and up his sleeves - click, click, click]

If you insist. I’ve managed to pull some favors with contacts of mine. We have an actual car this time around. [pause] …. I’m driving.

          They were under different circumstances- when you’re caged in a building just waiting to be plucked away, of course your chances are slimmer than wide open. You’ll be fine I promise.

          [Her nose scrunches] What, it’s my turn to drive- you did it last time and take too long to get to the destination

[lightenthisworld]

Virtuousopulence

Oh, uh, hey. Phone’s over there. [She points to a goopy looking phone, her own hands dirty from working.]

You have a knife? The blade on this is shit.

          [Just plucks it from the mess before wiping the screen with her shirt] Blood and guts are really opaque and streaky, huh? Especially since this has been here for a few hours..

          Yeah, uh, [She fumbles around before handing one to her] Here, this should be good since I sharpened it a few days ago.
