Meeting of the Minds

Who: Everyone who chooses to participate
Where: Breakneck Cay
When: December 5th
What: A summit to get down to business and get this situation sorted out, L-Elf-style
Warnings: Possible violence?
Style: Any
Status: Open

Upon arriving on Breakneck Cay, if you can navigate the shoals safely and find safe mooring, you'll notice that the beach is more or less abandoned unless you count the countless shipwrecks an snarled piles of debris strewn across the shore. If you approach the jungle, you'll notice a makeshift sign pointing towards a path leading into the trees. There's a lengthy note tacked to it with a detailed map, an exhaustive list of rules and etiquette for participating in a military summit, and probably more if anyone actually got past the part with the map.

The meeting is to be held in a strangely silent clearing. Upon arriving, you'll find L-Elf sitting on the huge stone in the center, fast asleep. It's immediately obvious that this is not a social occasion or it at least wasn't planned by someone with any idea how to make guests feel comfortable. There's nowhere to sit except on the ground and definitely no refreshments. It might be a good idea to send someone back to the ship to pick something up if you want to make it through this thing.

[How he manages to deliver such lines without a hint of awkwardness is beyond her -- she feels a little embarrassed just listening.

He makes a distinct first impression, that's for sure.]


Xun Yu.

[She offers politely, though unembellished. She doesn't want to give his silliness encouragement nor be unduly harsh. Her tone therefore is reasonably mild, but nonetheless critical.]

How many women are you at the service of? You shouldn't overcommit yourself.

You alone, for so long as you should need me.

[And then every other woman in the world after that, of course. There is only one person he'd truly put all else aside for if she asked, but she'll never ask and she's not here to keep him in line, so he's free to be as ridiculous as he likes.]

I am nothing if not hopelessly devoted. Should you need anything, no matter how small, for as long as we have together in this place, you need but call.

[She's speechless, and also slightly mystified by his choice of target -- just a glance around indentifies a handful of women who seem on the surface a better choice for this kind of pursuit. Then again, it could be that he's engaged them already. It's sport more than real sentiment, she thinks.

Eventually she finds her voice again.]


Shouldn't you finish seeing to your captain's needs? That hauling isn't going to do itself.
