Great. Thanks for the faith, Captain. Roxas will probably enjoy it, at least.

[Since he's going to be doing Lea's work, too.]

[hiken]

Oh, you'll like it, too.

[He smiled, waving his hand nonchalantly.]

We don't do our roles? We don't eat.

[by_heart]

[Yeah, that would be a problem at sea, wouldn't it?]

Whatever gets the work done, huh?

[Great.]

[hiken]

If even the captain has to obey this rule, it's a serious one.

[Despite the fact that Ace's primary role was to give directions and be constantly power-hungry and predatory.]

That and you'll get fat, otherwise. It's tough runnin' around a lot on deck without flying off the sides.

[by_heart]

Is that a problem you have often? I didn't think gravity worked that way.

[He doesn't even say anything about the fat remark. Somehow, he doesn't think he's in any danger of having that happen any time soon.]

[hiken]

You'll see once we hit rough waters. It ain't really irregular for you to catch yourself swingin' sideways from time to time out there, actually.

[by_heart]

[He makes a face.]

Sounds like fun. Now why didn't I sign up to be a pirate earlier? All these things I was missing out on this whole time...

[hiken]

If this ain't your lifestyle, don't worry. We're gonna be lookin' for those jewel shards to help get you back, Lea.

[by_heart]

Yeah, Riku told me about the big fetch quest. How's that going, anyway? That sort of thing is Sora's specialty, so you must be almost done by now.

[hiken]

Eh? Crappy, I guess. There's only been one shard found and some no-name crew snatched it while our crew did the heavy liftin'!

[by_heart]

So shouldn't you go snatch it back from them? That's what pirates do, right?

[hiken]

If and when we see 'em. You do know how big oceans can be, right?

[by_heart]

Do they write much in that magic journal? Should be able to pin them down from there. Oceans are big, yeah, but boats have to stop and restock, right?

[Piracy isn't exactly his strongsuit, but being a sneaky bastard is.]

[hiken]

Entirely unlikely. I can't imagine many pirates often like dishin' out their wares in public for everybody to see.

We're a lot more paranoid than that.

[by_heart]

Whatever you say, Captain.

[He hasn't had a journal for long, but he's already seen plenty of people writing about whatever catches their fancy. And not a whole lot of pirates.]

I'm sure we'll find all the shards in no time.

[Since they're apparently looking oh so hard for them.]
