Did you ride the bears? [Let's clear this up, first.]

[english_dignity]

Once or twice, maybe? With her. They were her familiars after all, not mine. Got carried in their teeth more often. I was just a tot then.

[all7seas]

So the bear would pluck you up in its great toothy jowls and carry you about whilst your mum rode upon its back?

[DIGESTING. THIS. CAREFULLY.]

[english_dignity]

Or fetch me home while she was cooking. It didn't happen that often. They wandered off after she faded.

[Shrugs, has experienced so many much odder things.]

Better a bear than a dragon. They weren't going to hurt me, not after Mum named me for them. Arthur.

[all7seas]

Right.




You are without doubt the most English person I have ever met, lad. And I've met some very English types.

[Norrington, for one.]

[english_dignity]

[Blinks before laughing. Oh Jack, you have no idea.]

I should bloody hope so!

STOMACH FLU KILLED ME SORRY I AM BACK NOW

[all7seas]

There! Right there! Oozing with Britishness, you are!

[It's kind of awesome.] I'm not always in favor with the Crown, myself.

Awww, glad you feel better!

[english_dignity]

[That just made Arthur laugh harder.]

Lad, even I haven't always been on their good lists, and I've been tied to them since there was an English crown.

TY!!!

[all7seas]

[Jack hopes that at this point you have forgotten that he tried to pickpocket you, Arthur.] Sounds bloody awful. Now, where to go for a drink around here?

[english_dignity]

[Nope, but he's made friends with people who've done worse to him. Including the old 'cannonball to the boots' treatment.]

Wasn't always. It's had its perks from time to time. Though I could have done without the powdered wig fad.

There's a reason I spent as much of that time at sea as I could.

And that depends. Are you paying?

[all7seas]

I've got some credits here!

[That doesn't mean he's paying, though.]

[english_dignity]

Hopefully not ones that originated from my wallet?

[Raises an eyebrow, smirking just a little before he nods his head towards the street.]

Saw a promising looking one down a ways.
