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?

I handle his paperwork and keep an eye on the estate in many manner of ways.

I buttle.
[That sounds so undignified though.]

But I do enjoy it, and despite how aggravating my employer can be, he is an appreciated friend.
[............... He does miss Howard.
It's funny to think, with all the stress he causes him.]

[He can hear the first-mateness in your voice, Jarvis. First mates have a sort of tone to them.]

First mate is accurate enough, as far as parallels go.
STOMACH FLU KILLED ME SORRY I AM BACK NOW

... With all due respect, your beard is hardly typical, either.
[What a pot you are to the kettle.]

Yes, very — unique indeed.
[you're worse than howard hate to say
i hate your beardy thing]
It's certainly important for a pirate's uniform, is it not? A beard of sorts.

Might he have a masculine and enviable chin, then?

[are you teasing me, sir]

Aye. Razor in one hand, axe in the other. His mate standing by with a boat hook in case the beard got frisky or obstreperous.
Now that's a true friend.

I've had to help Mr. Stark judge his own mustache, on more than one occasion.
