Across Universes

Xavier: W-well yeah. Uh...

He grabs a piece of paper and writes that the guards of the plantation aren't heavily armored and could probably be incapacitated with some projectile weaponry, but there are also vicious guard dogs there to make sure none of the slaves escape.

Beat: Thanks for the info.

But still... How dumb are you? Did you really agree to join a pirate crew without knowing that they hang pirates? Did you not realise that any other pirate would have gone through with thier threats? That your were lucky to find a crew that wouldn't just kill you and take your treasure? And yet this is exactly why I can't kick you out.

The breeze was blowing from within the room. If I don't get this under control I'm going to pass out. Lucky my voice isn's strong enough to carry far.

Xavier: Well... honestly, Captain, I figured you'd kill me if I didn't join... heh.

Beat: Once again I brought this on myself. Excuse me while I apply self-flaggation.

Atleast Beat was still intimidating. "Interesting assumption there, kid."

Raidou: Uh, I don't think that's necessary, Captain...

Beat: (stops) Darn you convent and your unhealthy attitude toward sin. And did you know what you were getting into Rai?

He wasn't that familiar with English culture obviously

Raidou: Uh, I heard tales about pirates, but never really seen many of them myself...and, well, I never really saw people getting their necks snapped too...it sounds...really painful...

Beat: I apologize. I thought that everyone on the seas knew the punishment for piracy...

Xavier: Before I met the Mercury crew, my only interactions with pirates consisted of narrowly escaping their ships and almost getting sliced up with cutlasses.

"...Apparently not." 'Nix sighed. This could be a serious problem for those two...

Beat: And you didn't see why that would usually warrant the death penalty?

Xavier: Good point...

Raidou: Uh, s'okay. I wasn't a pirate before, so I didn't know. Just helped on a fishing ship for my village.

Beat: So I dragged you onto something that would help you get killed? Great.

"It's too late to have regrets now, though. You're both competent enough to be on the team, after all." Well, Raidou is, anyway.

Beat: Curse me and my need for companionship...

Not really seeing anything here to latch onto anything more with my character, except generic info gathering, so going to bed FOR REALS now.

Raidou: Eh, I've got no prob with it. Take life as it goes. An' least I got my book an' compass to help guide me.

-Grins-

Beat: Well at least your content in you position...

"Agreed." C'mon captain, shrug it off...

Raidou: Don't see why I shouldn't be.

Beat: So we finally have something that can grant us a bit of progress. I guess that's good news.

She tried to look as upbeat as was physically possible.

Beat: Becuase... Some people just can't be happy in that lifestyle.

She tried to say that without dropping her charade.

"Quite... true." ...I feel horrible for this.

Raidou: Well, guess we're not like most people then.

-Yawns a bit and covers his mouth-

Er, sorry fer yawnin'...heard it was rude to do that in the presence of a lady. I'll be getting some shuteye, Captain, if that's alright with you. Thanks for takin' me to the opera!

-Waves goodnight to Beat and goes to bed-
