Across Universes

"Well, people have to earn their way through life, right?" ...I didn't even realize that she was an orphan.

Ajay: First off, I'm an excellent swordfighter. Self-trained. And third...well, I just can't say no when a pretty girl is in need of help.

Beat: And thank you for giving me the enocuragement I needed to do that. The plan you came up with was simple enough. The Mercury was just a ship with the owner was a poor Spanish Sailor. Take the boat when he was gone... But he came back just in time to catch us....

Norma: Pretty girl? You make me sound like some kind of Distressed Damsel? If anything its the men in my life that need to be rescued...

"Yeah. Knocked him unconscious without much of a fight. No need to kill the guy if his idea wasn't to kill us, right?"

Beat: But his body was found by the docks the next day... Someone did kill him. And of course we as the thieves were the natural prime suspects.

"Quite unfortunate for the fellow. I mean, the guy didn't deserve that fate, after all, right?" Wow, we sound sappy. On the other hand, nobody said pirates were cold-hearted.

Beat: And it had to be that man....

Ajay: Why of course not! I was just offering any help I may be able to provide. Of course...you don't trust me, do you?

Norma: Its not that I don't trust you.. It's just that I'm suspicious you're not being completely honest with me. But if you can help me catch those murderers I certainly will work with you.

'Nix raised an eyebrow. "...Miss Grace?"

Ajay: I'll certainly let you know if I catch wind of them...*pulls out violin, and starts playing a tune*

Norma: I remember Miguel used to play that song...

Beat: Haven't you noticed that Bates is always there whenever we're spotted?

Ajay: *continues playing* Oh? who's Miguel?

Bates: He was my boyfriend...

Ajay: That's right, he died back then... Oh, I see...

(A messenger comes up, Ajay barely noticing him. Hands a note over to Norma before running away)

Lieutenant Bates:

I know you've been keeping busy chasing this so-called 'witch' for that murder three years ago, but recent developments have come to mind of a mysterious renegade that must be stopped at all costs. With your deductive skills, I'm sure you would be able to find and chase down this mysterious person faster than many others in our prestiged Navy. I expect this mission to be completed with much haste.

Sincerely,

Admiral B'Cool

Is this a fake? Because if it is give the guy a less obviously made up name than B'Cool. Like I said Norma isn't stupid.

It's made by the same guy, but he's really the admiral. And he's my Author Avatar, what last name would you suggest?

"...That has been wierd now that I think about it. You don't think one of the three new guys is a...?"

Norma: Admiral B'Cool is mailing me? A mysterious renegade. So no name... Great... Maybe Beat can wait for once.

Faceplam on self.

Beat: No, 'Nix. It's because she hates me. Personally, the original owner of the Mercury was her boyfriend or something.

Beat and Bates have encountered eachother several times before the timeframe of this RP. And I know I complained about how cliche this motive is but its less so when the offending party ddin't actually do it.

Ajay: Oh, so it seems like this dinner has to be cut short then? A shame, I wish it could have been longer. Good...she got the right note. Perhaps I'll enlist that messenger into her crew, he seems to have nearly as good an ear as I do.

Norma: I had a wonderful night if its any consolation.

Ajay: *smiles* It is. Well, I mustn't keep you from your important mission. *gets up and wipes mouth* See you again soon?

Norma: Yet another night ruined. But really how am I supposed to track down a "Renegade" that doesn't even have a name. I know what this is... He's trying to punish me for focusing too much on Beat.

Ajay: Would you like me to walk you home?

Norma: I have no idea how to start with this.... Fine. But thanks for ruining my night.

She didn't even know who she was talking to.
