texts from last night's deeply regretted rum venture




DON'T PIRATE AND DRIVE

o1. Nothing settles the Crossing jitters like a bit of liquid courage — and with pirates, sharing is caring. Maybe you took it willing, under duress or subterfuge, or you completely underestimated the potency of what your esteemed sailor companions style the 'Mother's milk — but you are hereby sloshed. Inebriated. Tipsy. Under the weather. Toasting the gods.

o2. Top level with one or more of your character's most philosophical, amorous, or otherwise deeply wrong drunken thoughts or observation. Don't leave an empty comment, that makes the wine gods sad.

o3. Comment aroundkeep incriminating evidence.

o4. Feel free to make any of your threads game canon, just check with your partner too!

I do not wish a death of a hundred agonies.
bravelyrunsaway: (hm; yeah not sure that makes sense)

[personal profile] bravelyrunsaway 2022-07-11 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Praise the sense you retain! Still, don't run. Puts every predatory instinct on high.
downswing: (tres tacky)

4/4

[personal profile] downswing 2022-07-11 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
She will not be incited.
bravelyrunsaway: (hah; glance down and away)

[personal profile] bravelyrunsaway 2022-07-11 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
I look forward to your continued lovely presence in companionable spaces with the equally lovely Wen Qing.
downswing: (trade)

You set gaze on the aunt of my son?
bravelyrunsaway: (consider; there's something off here)

[personal profile] bravelyrunsaway 2022-07-11 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Love, my eyes are open, and I welcome all but the undead.
downswing: (tepid)

[personal profile] downswing 2022-07-11 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
She bears honour, discernment and dignity.
bravelyrunsaway: (smile; no really tell me more)

Which any potential lover should bring to and respect in the one they seek, don't you agree?
downswing: (uhmmmm)

[personal profile] downswing 2022-07-11 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Before and after wedding rites.
bravelyrunsaway: (hm; yeah not sure that makes sense)

[personal profile] bravelyrunsaway 2022-07-11 11:44 pm (UTC)(link)
To those with that inclination, certainly. To others, not necessary.
downswing: (say what now)

[personal profile] downswing 2022-07-11 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
She is no plaything.
bravelyrunsaway: (watch; what's happening now)

[personal profile] bravelyrunsaway 2022-07-12 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
It's telling that your understanding of my words is so far from their intention, love. What brings such a fear with you?
downswing: (magnolia)

[personal profile] downswing 2022-07-12 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
Seek another 'love.'
bravelyrunsaway: (amused; genuinely)

[personal profile] bravelyrunsaway 2022-07-12 02:17 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I always do.
downswing: (accounts settled)

[personal profile] downswing 2022-07-12 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
( NOT AS PLANNED. )


A ship only so large.
bravelyrunsaway: (hm; yeah not sure that makes sense)

[personal profile] bravelyrunsaway 2022-07-12 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
A voyage only so long.
downswing: (welcome one & all)

[personal profile] downswing 2022-07-12 09:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Not a challenge.
bravelyrunsaway: (smile; no really tell me more)

[personal profile] bravelyrunsaway 2022-07-13 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
Pleasure is its own reward. Mutually desired, mutually provided, mutually claimed.
downswing: (leonine)

[personal profile] downswing 2022-07-13 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Respectfully declined.
bravelyrunsaway: (disheveled; as it says)

[personal profile] bravelyrunsaway 2022-07-15 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
Of course, love, and a person doesn't presume otherwise, but if you and your husband ever change your minds, I'm available. Until then!
