Skateboards and teeth? No, we spoke. ( kano had spoke, clarke had lost her cool and yelled at him. ) I actually met him on his first day on board; I told him about the bridge, but never expected he'd actually get an audience if he were to know... And now that I'm thinking about it, I didn't get name either.

But as for getting him to come out, somehow, for some reason, he's considered a part of Stede Bonnet's crew. ( ugh. ) He goes to their meetings. I have no idea what the hell Stede is doing about that, or why he's welcome, or why he bothers to play along with that entire charade but. That's an option.

The one who keeps putting up flyers? I never talked to him, but from reading these it seems like he's into playing pretend. [Pirate, matchmaker, therapist...] So small wonder the captain's into that.

Sounds like a chance, though. If the captain plays along and there are people around, maybe it will be less of a risk.

[Not completely risk free, though. Never that. Honestly, just a chance to approach when he's already out is enough.]

( oh man, her first real opportunity to shit talk stede bonnet and there's literally nothing that can stop clarke from furiously typing — )

He's a fucking idiot.

I told him, I tried to tell him. Forcing friendships and romantic feelings that can just be turned around to hurt us later is probably the worst thing anyone could do here. And it's like he doesn't hear a thing I say. He told me I needed to relax and I just

( UGH. )

I thought joining his stupid little group would have something, anything to do with waging a seafaring mutiny, but it's just been a waste of time. I'd quit, if it weren't for Darcy. And Diana. And all the people Bonnet might get hurt peddling his flawed ideals.

...And the Captain, I guess.

( chill, clarke. not calm down, but chill. )

So far it seems like he plays along. I even tried to start a fight last time, and he more or less waved me off. So, yeah, that's a starting point.

Relax?. He really IS an idiot.
Let me know when this group is meeting? I want to hear what the captain has to say.

( ah, a +1, as it were. someone to point and laugh at stede with, but also stare and envision killing the captain in silent, reserved concert... )

Yeah, of course.

But brace yourself to be forced into some ridiculous talent show spectatorship, or expected to do an arts and craft activity.

[neverleave]

They can expect all they want.

[Being an uncooperative buzzkill? Now THAT is his talent.]

( it's a selfish sort of preemptive delight, but she wants to see stede bonnet try to persuade natsuno yuuki to relax and live a little. like how people stop and stare at a car crash, or find a weird sort of satisfaction watching others trip. maybe she's not so vindictive as to seek to see stede humbled by holding someone important to him while they bled out, but she's very much here for watching the showdown between one man's fantasy and the immovable stubbornness of too-serious teenagers. )

That's our plan then. Read books, figure out Highlander, talk to Skulduggery, and corner the Captain at the next pirate gathering and just... See what we can figure out.
