[om_nom_namur]

[Namur has the Dipper unlashed and anchored on its own, so he hops back up onto the deck with Shiki, Leanne, and Rose.]

Aerial support's good, yeah.

[He glances at Shiki's legs- which are sword blades from the knees down, with a look of mild surprise.]

A'ight, Rose an' Leanne, fly out over the fleet but don't get shot. Go high. Wanna know how many we're facin' an' how well manned their ships are, for now. I'mma swim out an' see 'bout muckin' up their steerin', maybe sinkin' one or two if their hulls ain't too thick. Meet back here an' hopefully Marco'll be up by then t' make a actual plan, but he'll need that info first. Uhhh... Shiki, weren't it? If y' wouldn't mind keepin' an eye out for shots that come too close an' catchin' everyone else up t' speed I'd 'preciate it.

[He turns to Rogue.]

Go for it sweetheart. Was hopin' someone'd want t' take her out for a spin. Anchor's set but otherwise she's ready t' go.

[song_princess]

[Oh hey, there is Rogue and ffff maybe she can offer some help.]

Rogue... Would you like some galdrars to help you out?

[And now she looks over to Namur.]

Alright, I can see what I can do... Please see that they don't get too close to Serenes in the meantime.

[FFFF Forever more worried about Serenes now.]

[originaldragoon]

[Rose nods and summons her Dragoon armor and takes off towards the ships. For the most part she will keep her distance, but if a bullet gets too close to her she will dive down towards their deck to sweep and take out a crewmember or two before flying back up and high. If these guys want to fight a monster she will provide.]

[om_nom_namur]

[Namur nods at Leanne.]

Do my best, sweetheart.

[He looks back at Shiki and Rogue for confirmation of what they'll be doing as he reaches for the nearest enchanted journal.]

Two a y's good, right? Rogue, take yer journal in case we gotta get 'hold a y' while yer out.

[strongworld]

Hm.

[He smirks.]

Don't tell me what to do.

[And with that, he floats up off of the deck and flies off, heading-first into the nearest battleship. He'll uh... take that one.]

[om_nom_namur]

[Ass.]

[Namur furrows his brow again, but really, it's for the best. He didn't really want to leave the ship under some stranger's watch anyway. He opens up the journal and makes a private entry to just the Spades, so it'll be annoying at them until they get their message.]

Oi, Marco, get outta the damn flowers, we got a fight goin' on! Thatch, get yer ass over here on the Nav, I need yer brain! Ikki, Sel, Crocker! Get up on deck y' li'l shits! Move!

[thatched]

[it doesn't take him long to pop out of the Sun's nav, cutlass' twirling to the ready and cutting two cannonballs in half that come careening toward the Sun's mast]

I'm here, Namur!

[hungover but present]

What the hell is going on?

[om_nom_namur]

[In perfect working condition to come up with brilliant battle tactics and manipulate some shithead who doesn't want to be told what to do into doing what needs to be done. Excellent.]

Well Brighteyes, as y' can see we're under attack an' Marco's off...

[He gestures vaguely towards the efflorescent island and crosses his eyes.]

Got the Strawhats on the run probly drawin' 'em out, since I saw a couple a 'em shootin' over t' the ships thats on their tails, but we got 'nuff still comin' at us. Rose an' Leanne's runnin' recon, hell knows what ol' Shiki's up t', an' Rogue's gonna be out on the Dipper with a journal, case y' need her. I'mma head down an' see 'bout their steerin'. Ikki, Sel, an' Crocker still ain't reported.

[He pauses, seeming to go through things in his head, counting them out on his fingers, then leaps into a backflip, kicking a new cannonball back off the ship and into the bay.]

Think that's everthin', yeah.

[strongworld]

[Keep an eye on the horizon, as the ship Shiki headed towards slowly begins to float into the sky, accompanied by the screams of navy men as they, along with their weapons and supplies, are torn from the deck and plummet into the sea.

The disabled ship is then tossed into another ship that had moved in close to assist. That'll teach you to save your drowning friends!]

Jihahaha!

[om_nom_namur]

[Namur watches dispassionately as battleships suddenly start flying and crashing into each other.]

Think he's tryin' t' impress somebody or jus' havin' fun?

[thatched]

I think he's an idiot. Impressive, though, I've gotta say.

[there could be valuable loot up there or information that he's just smashing about. Contemporary of Pops or not, a careless guy was a careless guy.

Thatch cut another cannonball coming his way but one of the cutlass' chipped at the weight of the attack. These were not swords meant for his]

Want to watch the ship, Nam-chan? Or board with Feather-brain? Fresh from this place it's going to be a blood bath.

[chirpy as Marco was in double spring, once the flipped was switched he went in the complete opposite direction]

[om_nom_namur]

Been needin' somethin' t' sink my teeth int' lately. Come with, we'll leave the ship t' Sel an' the others.

[He stomps on the floorboards as yet another reminder to people below to wake the hell up.]

[And also nevermind that Namur wanted Thatch back to take tactical command. It'd be more fun this other way.]

[booyaka_boom]

*Selphie doesn't really appreciate being called a 'l'il shit' but she knows by that at the tone of his voice that this isn't time to mess around. She's just been distracted lately, okay?? Anyway, she appears up on deck soon enough, nunchaku dangling over her shoulder*

Okay, okay. L'il shit reporting for duty.

*Though if need be she'd casually remind him that she is second mate...*

[thatched]

[hey, part of tactics is going where you're needed...or will cause the most damage]

Lil shit is Namurian for Nunchuck Princess of his heart. [kisses the top of Selphie's head]

We're counting on you, Sweet Selphie.

[and to Namur]

Shall we do a surprise attack, Fishface?

[song_princess]

[Ah! Rose is already leaving so soon! Leanne shoots Namur a smile before flying after Rose.]

Ah! Sister! Wait up for me please! Nam Nam says to go together.

[originaldragoon]

[Rose stops and turns towards Leanne.]

Sorry this armor makes me impatient when it comes to battles.

[song_princess]

That's okay.... Your armor enjoys battle a lot it seems.

[Okay, she finally catches up.]

Please don't be afraid to ask for aid from me. I will do what I can.

[originaldragoon]

[She gives a slight laugh.]

That is putting it mildly...

[It takes a lot for her not to go into a battle craze while wearing the armor.

[She turns back towards the ships.]

Come! Lets create a nice distraction until the others can get into the fight!

[song_princess]

[Wow, that was a rare sound but Leanne giggles a little.]

I will have to trust you on that.

[A small nod as she just moves only slightly ahead.]

Alright, we can do that. Serenes has given me a few seeds to try and hold them off with.

[originaldragoon]

Then lets do this, Little Sister.

I do not know what those seeds can do, but I assume they can allow you to attack and defend from a distance?

[She knows how direct fighting can be quite harmful to Leanne and wants to make sure the other girl is safe.]

[song_princess]

Yes, lets older sister.

Well with the proper galdrars I can make them do different things but I haven't been in Serenes long enough to fully master the galdrars quite yet.

[FFFFFF You know that matters to her? If not watched she will fly into the middle of the fray.]

[originaldragoon]

[Oh boy, looks like Rose is going to have to watch both of their backs to make sure Leanne doesn't get hurt.

[As they get closer to the ships, the men below take notice of them and start firing up towards them. Some of the bullets coming quite close.]

Looks like they are really spoiling for a fight.

[With a smirk, Rose dives down towards the deck, sword drawn and ready to cut down anyone firing at them.]

[song_princess]

[Leanne lets out a small yelp as one came to close to her.]

It seems like they are.

[She was about to call out to her but stops instead to sing a Galdrar on Rose. It was just a nice strength boost for the older woman. She lets out another squeak as another bullet flies too close to her. She pouts a little and holds out one of the seeds to kiss.]

Please goddess.... Let this work. [She focuses on the seed.] Thank you for what you are about to do and I am sorry.

[She drops the seed to aim for the middle of the ship, singing a slightly different galdrar. Hopefully no one will the seed long enough for it to take root and grow rapidly, roots growing downward through the hull of the ship.]

[originaldragoon]

[Rose feels stronger as dives closer to the ship. She knew that somehow that Leanne had something to do with it, and makes a mental note to thank the girl after the battle.

[Once close enough to the ship she levels out her flying and comes in low to the deck, slashing her sword to cut down a few of their gunmen before pulling back up to fly back to Leanne.

[She hears several cries from the men, some because of her attack but others because of something else. She looks down to see the ship starting to be covered in vines and root, the men running around in panic.]

Well that is certainly a useful attack.

[song_princess]

[Green eyes blinks at the sight and she goes to look towards Rose when she comes back.]

Yes, it seems so but still not able to control it fully though.

[Okay, going to look Rose over, ignoring the screams below as root and vines continues to take over the ship.]

Are you hurt anywhere, sister? [Wincing though a little as the screams doesn't stop.]

.... Should we move to another ship to prevent from nearing Serenes?
