[This voiced bit is made after this hapadash intro here. Getting to be around sunset now]

So, is this Slayer part two here, show up in some "other world?" Gotta say, this is totally toy if it is.

But hey, girl's gotta do, right? So any lurks out there, here I am. Come find me, I dare you.

[To be honest, she's not sure if she believes this is the case or not. She's just restless - to be out of Versi, to not be near Gates or Erin or her new flat with all the heritage she was just beginning to discover. To assume - or perhaps more accurately, pretend - that showing up in this weird wing-world is an extension of that whole deal.

If anyone wants an action portion instead, she's wishing she had her scythe or blaster hanging out around central plaza, on one of the shop roofs, watching people. At least she has on her own set of clothes by now]

What's a pirate?

...

Pirates, darling, are just splendid bright cheerful lovely fellows what don't mean a lick of harm to anyone ever. They're lovely to have about, really. And devilishly handsome, mostly.

[voice]

[makeitquick]

[....Pfft. Okay, she snickers at that.]

Right, and I'm a cred-pushing Uppers gal. Don't spin me, "Captain," or your lurk-story sounds less reliable.

[voice]

[all7seas]

Right. Pirates are marauding cheating rapscallions. Myself, I've put off the marauding for a bit to honor...well, a slayer, if you must know. Aaaaand a doctor. Made a promise, me, but I'm a dishonest man and, well...

[A pirate will out, eventually.]

Also, it is rather extraordinary---how you talk.

[voice]

[makeitquick]

[What the hell is a "rapscallion" ? But she gets what it means, and all at once she feels a sort of kinship to this guy. Wow, weird. She almost comments on that promise, but no, let's drop that for now]

Is it? Lotta people in Versi talk this

[voice]

[all7seas]

Sounds a bit Creole to my ears. Not so much like Tia, and yet everything like Tia. Poetical. I like it.

[voice]

[makeitquick]

[Poetic?]

Thanks?

[Wow, put at a loss for words so much by one man. In one conversation]

[voice]

[all7seas]

You're very welcome, darling. Remember what I said, eh? Angel. Vampire. Vampires need staking.

[voice]

[makeitquick]

Yeah, keeping it in mind, Captain. Though, also good for you to to fig in that I'm not "Slayer for hire" here.

[Since the soul bit, she can't help but wonder if this is personal... but she'll still check it out anyway]

...Not for less than a sil, at least.

[voice]

[all7seas]

Hmm? Oh! Ho! No, darling. I'd never dream of paying you to do something you're born and bred and destined for! It rather cheapens the whole ordeal, if you ask myself.

[voice]

[makeitquick]

[...Pfft]

And from what I hear, nothing costs a coi here.

[voice]

[all7seas]

That's right! All free for the taking! Doesn't mean there isn't treasure to be had, here.

[voice]

[makeitquick]

Gonna tell me there's bonds to be found, or you found other things?

[voice]

[all7seas]

Other things. Beautiful, lovely things. Just got to know how and where to look, I suppose. Pirates are good at that sort of thing.

[voice]

[makeitquick]

If I ever find myself needing things like that, I'll ring you.

[voice]

[all7seas]

Feel free, eh? Anytime, love.

[voice]

[makeitquick]

I'll count on you, Captain.
