Who: Jack Sparrow and ANYONE
Broadcast: Fleetwide - Unfiltered
Action: Cargo Bay of the Bishop
When: Soon after appearing on the ship in a shower of brilliant confetti and chocolate
[The pirate's got the general idea of things after the rather sterile initiation aboard the Marsiva with all of the Metal Men serving him plates of mushy foodstuffs. All told, it hadn't been unlike the time he'd disguised himself as a eunuch to infiltrate the Moroccan sultan's choicest harem, but ended up assigned to polish the sultan's prized marble gazing ball collection instead. You were low eunuch on the totem, you didn't guard virgins; you rubbed balls day and night until they gleamed like a thousand dying suns.
But you can't let that get you down. You find a way to profit.
Which brings us back to the Metal Men aboard the Marsiva. Jack's first taste of futuristic robotics, they were rather like eunuchs, but were hard and shiny, like marble gazing balls. There were no virgins anywhere to behold. That was where all the similarities between the Marsiva and the sultan's palace stopped.]
Just like rubbing the sultan's damnable balls again. [Alert listeners will hear him mutter that whilst musing over his adventures and trying to figure out use of the coms.
[The Bishop, though, had possibilities. Its cargo hold was empty save for a bicycle that didn't move and moving pathway to nowhere, but it had plenty of smuggling potential. Maybe, too, a place to hide the rum.
Later, louder, with video:] Captain Jack Sparrow, here, aboard the bloody metal box, Bishop.
[He doesn't care that Cersei is the "official" captain.]
I've got a keg of ale and a lovely bottle of rum [no he doesn't] to give to the gentleman -- or lady -- [no, he won't] what knows the prime trade routes in this quadrant of the universe. Savvy?

So, found anyone to bribe yet who believes you have a keg of ale and a bottle of rum?

What's a rating?

video
So what's our rating s'posed to be?
video
Yours and mine? Probably just got bumped up to parental guidance for kids 13 or younger since I made the orgy comment. The whole reality show? I'd say restricted. [Or NC-17?]
video
Makes my skin crawl, actually. Perhaps ratings is a good thing.
[Babies. Terrifying.]

[Isn't that what so-called reality is? A show everyone agrees on, except for the mad ones who are watching a different channel?]
P'raps no one's watching at all.

[There's always that.]

[You may not be hearing it in his voice, but Jack is super-interested in people who are dead, people who used to be dead, and people who have figured out how to prolong not being dead.]
Sorry to hear that, lovely. For your sake, I hope this isn't said afterlife. Have you pinched yourself?
video
Isn't that more for dreams? [She smiles.] I've been hurt while I've been here, so close enough?
STOMACH FLU KILLED ME SORRY I AM BACK NOW
Death can be like a dream, I've heard. But sorry to hear that, lass -- bein' hurt and all.
That's the worst! Hope you feel better!
How is your deal making going for trade routes? [She's pretty confident it's badly.]
TY!

How do you keep busy here, if you don't mind my asking, darling?
no subject
Well, I'm the captain of a ship which has a couple of responsibilities anyway. I started a dance studio and offer lessons. I agreed to teach self defense for the school. And then training, projects, reading, skimming the network, seeing friends, and spending time with my boyfriend. [At least she does back in this thread!]
