SHSL PIRATE

Floating here, along the ocean waves looking for treasure.

Deep Blue Se-bath house? (OPEN)

Mary wandered along to the bath house, towel thrown over her shoulder. She wasn't a hundred percent sure she was in the right place, but not like that had ever stopped her confidence. So, bursting through the nearest door opening onto a changing room, she yelled "Oi! Do anyone be here already?" and poked her head around. Seemed clear for now at any rate.

She quickly ditched the old clothes and gave herself an experimental sniff. Much as she missed the smell of the ocean, this was starting to become one smell she WOULDN'T miss. Making her way into the bath house proper, she eased herself into the water and leaned back with a contented sigh. She had her eyes closed as she heard someone else approach. Not bothering to look around at the sound of slapping feet she said "Be takin' a seat whoever ye' be, don't be gettin' shy on me."

  Matthew breathed a heavy sigh of relief when Mary gave him his patch back. He readjusted it back and looked relieved. He didnt know what to say to her. She had been right about everything. He thought "What is with her…jeez" he said to her straightforwardly "Oh well then, I guess it will have to break me then…" he rolled his eyes, was he too prideful, he didnt know, he just acted on impulse. He shrugged her statement off.

He walked with a faster pace to catch up to her "If we ever get out of here, yeah sure, I wouldnt mind getting the hell outta this place. Ive got nothing tying me back to this place, I wouldnt mind a different lifestyle anyways. Thank you." for once he smiled at her for her statement. Was she being nice to him? He continued to walk with her "Where are we headed?" He looked to her for her direction, he really didnt care where they went.

[shslbloodymary]

Mary shrugged, already having lost interest. "Break ye' or not, it'll likely be entertainin' in some way or other." Not really caring how he took the words.

When he offered to take her up on the job, she laughed. "Good, I do be needed a new lad to be swabbin' decks or be doin' the laundry." Clapping him on the arm, she winked up at him. "How about ye' be buyin' me that drink sailor, or ye' could be escortin' me to me room..." letting it hang in the air she finished it by smirking and adding "Though me lettin' ye' in with all that feelin' sorry for yerself is a pretty grim an' small prospect. Ye' be more likely to catch me wearin' a dress"

[amaneama]

What a pickle...(OPEN)

[amaneama]

  Ama struggled to understand her but continued to do his best, rolling his eyes at what he assumed was some sass. “I was tied up by Matthew and Shizuka, the two felt it best to keep me from public eye…I supposed they just fail to understand me." He let out a smile, he wasn’t upset with them for that; but was concerned that they might remain that way for a while.

"And what about you?" He inquired, “Do you understand?"

[shslbloodymary]

Mary scoffed, "Hidin' yer' problem ain't fixin' it that much I do understand. But whatever they be thinkin' will work for them is up to them." She grinned then, a rather mischievous and somewhat sinister looking grin in the low light. 

Pushing Ama over she said "So boy-oh, what be if I do understand? What if I leave ye' tied somewhere else no one can find you an' be leavin' ye to starve? Would that be fittin' with yer' view that us killin' each other would be for the best?" Leaning over him, pinning him to the floor, she spread her grin wide and tooth, inches from his face. "I could be doin' exactly what ye want but to you laddy, and no one would hear you. Still be thinkin' yer idea's a good-un'?"

[yuzukishimizu-deactivated201407]

At least she tried - open

There was a long list of things that disturbed Yuzuki, one of them being about how there was almost no vestige Koneko and most likely Ken had ever been there. She doubted Ken and Koneko had been properly buried and it wasn’t like she could do anything about it, except maybe, memorials. Only she didn’t have anything to make one: no pictures, no incense, no rocks to make a memorial outside nor anything.

Placing flowers somewhere would be an option. Except with no proper sun nor fertilizer, it’d take a while for the flowers to grow. Then she remembered her skill and how she had made flowers out of brenches and pieces of fabric before. While fake were nowhere as nice as real ones, they’d  would be doing the trick, at least for the time being.

She didn’t want to bother Ritsuka again and that’d be the last time she ever stepped into that strange courtroom, so she settled for placing the flowers next to the merry go round. It made some sense in Yuzuki’s head, as everything had began there.

She stood in front of the flowers and prayed Koneko and Ken were happy, somewhere. 

She noticed someone aproaching her and then realized maybe they didn’t understand what she was doing. It was a bit weird, after all, but then again, she… No, Ken and Koneko would have to make do with that, "It’s… I couldn’t find the things for a proper…" 

[shslbloodymary]

"Ack, no need to be explainin’ lassy. Thar be some things ye just be needin to do. This be one if you feel it to be so." Mary kicked around at the ground. Just because this didn’t bother her, she realized it did other people. She reached out to pat the other girls shoulder. “If’n thar be anythin’ I can do, ye jus’ give the Cap’n a holler." She said with a slight grin she hoped was reassuring.

[yuzukishimizu-deactivated201407]

Ah… I guess," Yuzuki smiled back  the other girl.  That was cruel, just… Too cruel. Lives were being trown away just like that… And to think someone had pushed Koneko into murder. Being so angry at someone scared her. Were the others that angry? How did they cope with that anger? Thinking about Ama made her shake in anger, how could she make that stop? Maybe taking a deep breath?

"Thanks… "Mary’s words calmed her own, for some reason. They were reassuring…  

[shslbloodymary]

Mary shrugged. "Well, much as it be sad an' all, that be life. Folk die, ye' survive, ye move on." In Marys mind, there was little else to be sad over now. It had happened, so may as well just move on, right? "All we can really be doin' is rememberin' the crew mates lost on the way." Slapping Yuzuki on the shoulder she thumbed over her shoulder towards the door. "Come on lass, stayin' here mopin' will do ye' no good. Lets get some air."

A Plank Walking

[shslalligatortamer]

  Matthew thought "This little person really is a force to be reckoned with." He shrugged his shoulders, and sighed loudly. He knew what he must do, even though he didn’t want to, someone was going to have to budge first. He stepped back away from the little one a few steps when she yelled at him, cautious of what she could do.

Then she snatched his eyepatch from him. He felt like she was being a bully to him. He snarled childishly "You cheeky bastard…give that back!" He started to reach for it, but didnt want to touch her.He was used to being antagonized, but not by a female. He became flustered, he couldnt understand why she was antagonizing him, calling him names and stealing his stuff.

Was he truly a wuss? He scratched the back of his head, and submissively said with his shoulders slumped "If I call you captain, can you give me my patch back, I don’t like to freak people out okay, and its special to me.." he felt like a kicked dog. He couldnt understand how this girl put him in line so quickly. He then squared his shoulders some, and then looked her square in the eyes and said "Please captain, I’d appreciate it."

[shslbloodymary]

Mary grinned and nodded, finally satisfied...for now. Reaching up she patted Matthew on the head, almost like she would a dog. "There ye' go lad, wasn't so hard now was it?" As she reached up and slipped the eye patch around his head. It was skewed and didn't actually cover anything, but she didn't particularly care.

"Bloody hell though lad, ye' be a proud one. That thar' pride's gonna break ye' one day, ye' mark me..." she trailed off before shrugging again, and walking off a few paces ahead of him. Rubbing at her short hair, she glanced back over her shoulder at him. "Still, some do be findin' a quality like that admirable. If ye ever be lookin' for work, I could always use a good deck hand." 

[shslbloodymary]

[shslalligatortamer]

  He lifted his eyebrow unimpressed, crossed his arms, and slightly annoyed he said "You keep calling me that name and we will both continue to have a problem. And if you are a pirate as you say you are, I am not part of your crew, therefore, I am not required to call you captain!" He scowled his eyes at her and scoffed. "Ya know, I did read a book or two in my days about pirates…so…thats how I guessed that you were one. Its not that hard to figure out with the way your acting and speaking. You look so out of your element…"

He took off his eyepatch, challenging her notions of his looks, and her apparent sense of authority shes trying to have over him "You know, you can’t mess up my appearance more than its currently messed up. I am blind in my right eye and my whole entire right side was melted in a fire, so go ahead, do your worst!"  He rolled his eyes at her, obviously not pleased at how things were going with this new person he just met.

[shslbloodymary]

Mary shrugged. If he wasn't going to show her a little respect first then why should she? At least as captain, that's how it worked in her mind. "Matters little if ye be me crew BOY, I still do be a Cap'n an' ye should be showin' the proper respect. I got nothin' to be hidin' anyway." Grinning she yelled out in a voice surprisingly loud for her smaller frame "I DO BE CAP'N MARY, FEARED PIRATE AND FREEBOOTER, AN' I DO BE PROUD OF IT!" letting out a hearty, if slightly forced laugh.

Hopping down she snatched the eyepatch from Matthew and put it over her own eye, giving him a wink. "Oh don't be gettin' yer' britches in a knot there laddy, ye think yer any less easy on the eyes for a bit o' woundin' like that? I got news for ye' princess, I laid eyes on prettier lads than ye with a lot worse in me line of work. Missin' limbs, both eyes, tongues an' all sorts." 

Flicking him in the chest she finished with "So man up tinkerbell, hell ye be playin' yer cards right maybe i'll get bored and show ye me scars too. Or may be bein' I won't. Yer pretty an all lad, but yer a bit o' a wuss for me I do be thinkin' now if somethin' like that be gettin' ye down."

Escort the Escort (OPEN)

[sugarbabyneaux-blog]

  Stephanie gave a short, shrill little laugh. “Wenching? Honey, I ain’t no wench." She puffed out her chest a bit, placing a dainty hand to her bosom. “I’m a high-class escort. You won’t find me walkin’ any pier unless its off a yacht!"

She liked the sound of this chick. Had that brash sorta attitude she loved to see in a lady. With a small smirk, she hooked her arm with hers. “Stephanie, Stephanie Babineaux." 

"And believe me, miss captain, the pleasure is all mine. I can honestly say I’ve never met a pirate before. Well, off the Vegas strip, that is." She laughed, airily."Tell me, are the sailors as salty as they say?"

[shslbloodymary]

Mary raised an eyebrow before laughing, as she grabbed Steph roughly round the shoulder companionably, she wiped her eye with her other hand. "I do be likin' the cut of ye jib Steph, Ain't no shame in the work but why be settlin' for any less than the best right?" She said with a grin. 

As they walked she waved her hand "No needin' for the 'miss' part poppet, though I didn't think there were pirates an' freebooters that far inland, but yup, I do be a pirate and a cap'n to boot." At Stephs question Mary pulled a face. Salty? "Not all of em' are bad tempered ye know, an' not all be livin' long enough to be considered salty. O'course, them that don't be burnin' out or bleedin' out tend to figure out life's too short to spend worryin' an' bein' a grouchy ol' fart. Bit of an odd question lass, unless I be mistakin' ye'?" As she pulled a face.

"What about ye'? Ye' seem to be a high class lassy, what ye be doin' with the life? Shouldn' ye' be off gettin' pampered somewhere or drinkin' high tea instead o' knockin' boots to get by? Not that that ain't fun, but can't rightly see it as my kinda life. What be the appeal?"

[amaneama]

What a pickle...(OPEN)

[amaneama]

  Ama turned to face her and stood up, leaning against the door behind him and gave her a smile. It took him a moment to really process what she said, but fortunately he managed to muster up a basic understanding. That said, his face went slightly red at her implication and he furrowed his brow.

"I don’t enjoy that like /that/, but rather I enjoy it knowing that it brings forth the greatness inside you all!" Ama explained, a big grin on his face, “You have to understand that there is a great deal of potential in all of you, but it seems as if you all can not reach it without facing the right hurdles.

His face turned to terrifying cold sweat smile, “And it appears the best way to bring it out is to murder and go through the trials, so I will do y part to bring forth the necessary hurdles to let you all grow!!"

[shslbloodymary]

Mary gave him a funny look, unsure if he was joking or what. Then she simply shrugged and dropping him, took a seat on the floor next to him. "Well if ye do be insistin', ye be a creepy one laddy, but ye got guts. I'll be givin' ye that." She picked at her ear with her pinky, looking out to the darkness of the tunnel of love. 

"Well, I ain't sure of what this 'potential' crap ye seem to think we all have is, but yer' at least honest, gotta be givin' ye points for that." Shrugging again she looked at him from the corner of her eye. "So who done trussed ye up anyway? Not that i'm fixin' to be lettin' ye go mind, yer obviously someones booty and ain't my place to be freein' another freebooters captive. I just be curious is all." Apparently accepting of the boys reasoning. After all as captain, she had to do things that may not always make sense for the good of her own crew too before.

A Plank Walking

[shslalligatortamer]

  Feeling as though she touched a nerve in him with her grimmace and namecalling, he said with a slight aggravated tone "My names Matthew, not ‘big boy! I don’t like nicknames at all!" He was one to never like nicknames. Growing up his parents and the kids in school would always bully and abuse him with their hurtful namecallings. He didnt mind her playful nature, but he felt she needed to get a few things right about him. "To me your Mary." He crossed his arms chidlishly and then looked puzzled as a thought occurred to him "Wait, what….your a pirate?!" He took a few steps back and said shocked "I thought those were of story books? I had no idea pirates were real…!" He scratched the back of his head confused. He asked curiously "Where you want to walk to? Im looking for killing time as well."

[shslbloodymary]

Mary grinned and winked "Sure thing big boy. You keep callin' me Mary like ye be knowin' me though and we won't be gettin' off to smooth sailin' though ye hear?"

She laughed, hopping up onto a nearby crate with ease and arms on her hips looked down on Matthew. "Yo-ho-ho and all that rot, I do be a pirate. Good guess big boy. Ye be some kinda detective?..." She cringed then and looked at him through a squinted scowl. "Ye not the fed's are ye? Ye be a easy on the eyes laddy, and i'd rather not be havin' to mess that up for ye'..." As expected, a pirate even in the modern times doesn't exactly have the greatest of histories with the authorities. 

[amaneama]

What a pickle...(OPEN)

[shslbloodymary]

Mary had taken a peak in the tunnel of love. She had never really been in one of these, but chose to walk along the service embankment instead. The dark was nice, but the place seemed rather….boring to her. Ah well, too late to turn back now.

As she rounded one of the bends though, she saw something behind the fake cutout foliage. A person? Kicking her way through she grinned. “Ye be that scallywag who did got a bit over excited ain’t ya?" She said with a grin. Walking over she toepoked him in the side of his rib, “Ye should really stand when ye be conversin’ with a Cap’n ye know. Cap’n Mary’s the name."

As she loomed over him (in as much as anyone under 5 and a half feet in height CAN loom) with her arms crossed and a haughty grin splashed over her face, she said “So what be yer deal lad, ye one of ‘that sort’ that do be gettin’ a bit funny of the violence? I do swear I only be seein’ the sorta’ reaction you gave on me crew on their shore leave when they do be off wenchin’."

[amaneama]

Ama was a bit dumbfounded, when it came to speech pirate talk wasn’t something he was very familiar with. He furrowed his brow and did the best he could to understand, but to no avail. It was far too difficult to understand her pirate talk. He turned his head away and tried to get back to sleep. Maybe with a little more rest he could figure out what she was getting at.

[shslbloodymary]

Her grin dropped. This jerk was ignoring her? She'd show him. She aimed a swift kick, or rather a "love tap" in kick form at his stomach  to get his attention, before getting down on her haunches, grabbing him by the collar and dragging him up to eye level with her. Scowling she said "It ain't wise to be ignorin' a cap'n laddy, so I do be askin' again. What be yer deal. Ye some kinda deviant who be gettin' off on the killin's, or there some other game ye be playin'?"

[amaneama]

What a pickle...(OPEN)

It seems Ama’s peers were less than pleased with his behavior during the trial, as the implication that he was what fueled Koneko into the unbridled paranoia and fear that led her to murder a fellow classmate was quite frightening; and frighteningly true. He hasn’t meant for her to kill, but rather he had believed that by forcing her to the brink she would either break like any normal teen would or hopefully overcome it like the student she truly had the potential to be. Yet it mattered not, as his classmates Shizuka and Matthew saw fit to tie him up and place him in such an obscure location.

The Tunnel of Love, how quaint

His legs were bound at his ankles, and his arms bound behind his back at his wrists. It minimized any movement he could perform, and a small length of rope remained to chain him to a door handle for a room that was locked.

Despite all this Ama has a somewhat hopeful look on his face, but he was certainly a little unsure of his situation. The bags under his eyes were certainly apparent and his hair was in quite the bit of disarray, even his bow tie was at an angle.

Ama laid down on his side and rested in order to keep his strength and wits about him, it wasn’t good for him to panic over his situation; after all in due time his peers would come to understand his reasons and perhaps even agree that the death of another is merely a small step to reach a great level of being.

But right before Ama could fall asleep completely, he heard the sound of foot steps draw near. He turned his head to take a look and opened his eyes a bit. “Yes?"

A Plank Walking

Mary tried her hardest to suppress a giggle during the trial. She had to admit, the carnies had a sense of irony, or at least humor. The lions were a nice touch, shame the little would be killer had died too early. Ah well, thems the the breaks. 

She quickly calmed her face, laughing at this kind of thing didn’t exactly earn her much in the way of good graces from most folk and she knew that. Her finding violence like that fun scared her a little but whatever, this wasn’t anything to do with her so why feel guilty for finding it funny? 

As she made her way outside, she couldn’t help it much longer and barked out a laugh. It wasn’t even harsh or cruel sounding, to anyone else it would sound like someone had told her a funny joke. And in a way, the carnies had…

"Bloody ‘ell I do be needin’ a drink. Doubtin’ they be havin’ much in the way o’ rum around here, but whatever. Oh, hey there. Care to join me landlubber?"  as she noticed someone standing behind her…

[shslalligatortamer]

Matthew literally just finished walking Nanaho back to the room. He had to go take a breather he was exhausted and spent. The days activities had tired him out to the brink, but he just couldn’t sleep. His sleeping patterns have been quite irregular and haphazard. He wasn’t sleeping much, and like anyone this made him more cranky and aggravated at most people who didn’t know him very well.

He ended up walking the hall until he approached a very short female in front of him who was taking up most of the walking space in the hallway. Taken off guard when she noticed his presence, he said tiredly as he made a motion with his hand to move her out of the way "Would you mind sharing the hallway please?" With his shoulders slightly slumped over, scratching the back of his head he said tiredly "I don’t drink milady, I rightly despise alcohol for my own reasons…but, I can walk with you to help you find one. Im not much in the way of being tired and wouldnt mind walking for a bit to help you find what your looking for…which reminds me, I haven’t met you before, my names Matthew…whats yours?" 

[shslbloodymary]

Mary grinned, not an unfriendly one, but there was a worrying amount of teeth shown. "Sure thing big boy, ye be lookin' for a walkin' pardner' ye found yourself one." As she punched him lightly in the shoulder, already friendly and inserting herself.

"I do be Cap'n Mary to the likes o' you big boy, ye can be callin' me Cap'n or Cap'n Mary. Pleasure to be meetin' ya." As she flourished a small bow. As she settled into walking at his side she added "I don't rightly be lookin' for much, other than to be killin' time. Though if'n the carnies be deciding to be givin' me an open bar tab, I don't rightly intend to be sayin' no."

Escort the Escort (OPEN)

Steph fanned herself, ducking outta the court faster than a sinner from confessional. Ugh, she was just glad it was over… That trial was just so dreadful! So nasty! And oh so boring!

Anyone could’ve seen little Koneko darling was the culprit. She would’ve said something of course, but Steph just didn’t think it was her business to meddle in the affairs of other Maneaters, (there WAS a code of conduct after all.) And Koneko had proven herself an exemplary little widow.

She never would’ve guessed she had it in her! Steph always thought she was a little high strung, but first degree man slaughter? Y’need more than a little neurosis to pull that.

And Ken of all people, falling for ANOTHER femme fatale? Silly boy. She could almost hear herself chiding him, Y’know the saying better than any, Mister Grifter. Fool me once, shame on me, right?

Oh well, no skin off her little, pixie nose. She smoothed out the hem of her a-line and threw back her hair. She waved her ascot toward the shuffling crowd, trilling out, “Yoohoo~? Does anybody wanna escort little ol’ me back to my dormitory?"

She gave a coy quirk of her lips to the first to approach her. “Ah, thank you sugar. Don’t feel very safe going all by myself, you understand." 

[shslbloodymary]

Mary barked a laugh, "Yar, I be gettin' ya lass. Little cupcake like ye' scare shitless cannae be expected to walk alone. Us lassies gotta' be stickin' together I be supposin'." Mary grinned, she had seen this sort of girl before, or so she thought on many a port. "Much as I don't be over approvin' of wenchin' at yer age, I do be bettin' it sure is fun." She said with a wink. 

"Be beggin' yer pardon though. The names Cap'n Mary. Me roomie did me a boon and gave me the lowdown on the faces I hadn't met yet. Be a pleasure to make yer acquaintance." As she offered the crook of her arm.

[monohorde]

Mary, Mary, quite contrary - Mary

The carnies had said something about rooms, Haruna decided to look for hers. Why’d they even had rooms? For how long would they be here? Well, more like, why’d their captors were so sure it’d take so long for the police to find them? For a few seconds, she doubted she and the others would ever leave the place in safety.

Haruna had never slept in such a small room… Except for that one, but that one didn’t count, anyway.  But that was all right, she didn’t need a huge bedroom, anyway. Well, maybe she did need a huge bedroom, for all her books, but most of her books were nowhere in sight.

Haruna was delighted to find out there were two beds. She never had a roomate before! How’d that be? She couldn’t help but wonder who her roomate would be, but she knew they’d probably get along well, eventually. Or at least not kill each other… Not literally, she didn’t think anyone’d die.

She knew how to care for her clothes and her room because she had helped the maids and the butler do it sometimes. Sometimes she was bored, but even when she wasn’t, she felt a bit bad they had to do everything, even if they were paid for that.

She stopped unpacking and excitedly ran for the door when she realized her roomate had arrived.  Mary looked nice enough, and pirates in this day and age, how interesting!

[shslbloodymary]

Mary grumbled as she kicked her way along the corridors. She wasn't used to the lack of attention. Not that she was a spotlight hog, but when you had a crew snapping to their attention when you passed, getting blank looks was a strange feeling. So to were these carnies, SHE was used to being the biggest trouble around. 

When she had found about the rooms, she shrugged. She had shared quarters before she became captain, so this was no new feeling to her. Plus she'd spent enough time in cramped safe houses that something like this didn't really bother her.

Opening the door, she grinned. Speaking loudly, she clapped Haruna on the back. "Hey thar girly! How be ya? Looks to be like we be bunk mates, could be worse so long as ye don't be snoring or sleepin' on yer watch." She laughed to show she was joking, before hopping onto one of the beds, claiming it and reclining back.

[monohorde]

Down the rabbit hole

[monohorde]

  Well, Captain was right, of course. While that fact bothered her beyound belief, it wasn’t like Captain was lying. Her parents didn’t let her leave home on her her own often, so… “No offense taken, you’re right, after all," she said, nodding a bit.

Yeah, those people were definetely doing it for anything other than money, but the concept of people killing for the sake of killing… It used to be a thing only from her parents’ books, “Killing for fun…" she repeated to herself. 

Haruna smiled at Mary and grinned back, “Heh, so I won’t!" She looked like an ok person, right? And she was pretty determined to go against… Well, whoever did that.
