[Well this sure is a video post. It opens on Kidd, who's looking rather casually bored, dressed up in all the stolen finery one might expect of a pirate. His accent is vaguely British-y, and his tone is casually bored.]

I've heard tell this turtle of ours stops off at locations along the course of its journey. And these shores— would anyone say they at all resemble the Caribbean? Nassau, perhaps?

[He assumes otherwise, but it never hurts to ferret out little bits of information. If nothing else, mention of Nassau might weed out any who know the region and what it stands for. Stood for. He cocks his head to one side, there's maybe a hint of something predatory to his expression.]

I find it curious, aye, to be plain, that we can be so long at sea without fear of outside attack. Pirates, and the like. This place is grand enough, but hardly impregnable. Has anyone considered proper fortifications for it t'all? A blockade, perhaps, or cannons? Or something a sight more modern, I understand there's all manner of things not common to my era.

Thanks be to you, listeners.

[A casual salute, and cut feed.]

Yes, Mrs. Reyes.

[He opts for the polite response, to be on the safe side, although she totally lost all her authority by laughing. It was worth it for that.]

[Bart wins- this time. He's a good kid- even if his mouth sometimes goes faster than any filter it might have attached to it, and she needed the laugh anyways, after the last month.]

Just don't let anyone who takes statistics seriously hear you. I'm sure there has to be at least one who's ended up here. Your numbers might end up getting corrected.

Betcha the girl who finishes her chem labs early so she could do her homework calls me on it.

[Now who does that description remind her of....]

Sounds like one of Jaime's friends. I'm sure she's a nice girl.

[backinakidflash]

Uh.

[She struck him as too prim and perfect to be real.]

Sure.
