Uh huh! Sure is. I dunno if it's the best spiced rum in the world, but that's what it is.

*She lifts the bottle and reads the label again*

Least, that's what it is says it is.

[bigbadrose]

Mind if I have some too?

I'll pay you back, but it might take awhile, yeah.

[booyaka_boom]

Sure! Be my guest!

*She moves along the bench, patting the space beside her*

Just bring a glass!

[bigbadrose]

Can do! Thank you very much Selphie.

[FETCHES GLASSES and comes over to join her.]

[And arches an eyebrow as she pours some. Underage drinking or not, it seems like the pirate-y thing to do.] You trying to get warm with this stuff? [TAKES A DRINK! Wow. That's some strong stuff...]

[booyaka_boom]

You're more than welcome! It's nice to have another girl to drink with!

*Selphie nods, happily accepting some more rum. No underage drinking here, though that would be super piratey! ((And here this mun realises that in her part of the world this isn't underage but in other parts it is? And cultural differences amuse her! ^^))*

Whaddaya think? Getting ya warm yet?

[bigbadrose]

Yeah likewise! [Although she's still kind of jealous, but shhh, no reason to even point that out now.]

[And she shakes her head, still covered in goosebumps.] Not yet, not really. How about you?

[ooc: actually Britain's drinking age is 18 I just forgot Selphie's age :T]

[booyaka_boom]

*Uh oh. Jealousy isn't good, but yeah, let's not mention that now. Selphie just smiles, oblivious to any of this. She scoots over a little closer to Rose*

Nah. Not really. I was pretty sure the rum would work - it normally makes me feel pretty warm, ya know?

((ooc: that's okies! ^^))

[bigbadrose]

I think it just numbs people to the cold usually. Or something.

Maybe we should all get out a bunch of blankets and make a sort of camping on deck thing. We can stick the Captain in the middle for his fire. [She is actually half serious about this.]

[booyaka_boom]

Oh... Then that's probably not such an awesome idea.

*Rose's suggestion does make her laugh though*

Ya know, I did think about that too! There's a whole lot of fire going on on this ship - we really shouldn't be cold!

[bigbadrose]

[Laughs right back.] Bit strange that it is so cold then, yeah? I always thought salt water was supposed to warm it up or something. [Waves a hand vaguely at the ocean.]

[booyaka_boom]

*Selphie glances in the direction that Rose points, then shudders gently* Urgh, I know for sure I wouldn't wanna be stuck in the sea right now, though!

[bigbadrose]

Yeah....

Just a bit too Titanic-y for my tastes. No Leo DiCaprio around to make it interesting either.

replying to this one because lol

[booyaka_boom]

*Selphie is just going to stare at this comment. What is Titanicy? Who was this Leo guy? Yes, her expression is all obvious kinds of confused. Maybe she's been drinking too much...*

I HAD TO XDDD

[bigbadrose]

[Waves her hand.]

Never mind... It's a... movie reference. Kind of a dated one too.

[Just gonna drink quietly for now.] The heroine gets spared drowning in iceberg waters. Somehow. True love basically.

XD

[booyaka_boom]

O-oh...

*Selphie smiles and nods, like this makes sense now, and she knows at least that she wasn't going crazy*

Well, that's good that she doesn't drown in the end.
