12 Fathoms Down ☠ [accidentally-on-purpose video]

[lists_to_port]

[When the video feed clicks on, it reveals--by the soft glow of candlelight--Jack Sparrow sitting across from a slender woman with long, flowing auburn hair wearing a tight leather dress. She can only be seen from the back. In fact, that beautiful hair is definitely a feature of this video. The pirate's arms are firmly around her as he leans in for

[...Really? Really?

So this is more than Amelia needed to see ever. Especially given that she's friends with the real Jilly. She's not making any effort to hide her disgust.]

You're broadcasting.

[voice]

[lists_to_port]

Oh! So we are! How embarrassing! Jilly? We've been---aye, love. Sorry. Erm---I'll just close the journal, shall I?

Re: [voice]

[thedicearecast]

Yes!

Why would you even have it open in the first place?! Doing something--something like that!

[This is Amelia, shuddering at the thought. And possibly scratching her neck. Bad experience.]

[voice]

[lists_to_port]

[There are more mumblings over the journal, as though Jack is speaking to someone else in the room. Then:]

Apologies indeed! It would seem that the journal turned on accidentally, darling. It does happen.

Re: [voice]

[thedicearecast]

...You're still calling me darling. Right now.

[Wow, Jack. How low can you get?]

You should be more careful. There's someone else in Luceti named Jilly. Someone who wasn't paying attention might get the wrong idea about her.

[Because obviously the reputation of a robber doesn't matter at all.]

[voice]

[lists_to_port]

OH! Aye! No, no---this isn't that Jilly. That other one. I'll clear it up, no worries!

[Thank you Amelia. You have given him a chance to voice that.]

[voice]

[thedicearecast]

[...Huh. Well that's strangely cooperative of him.]

Good.

[But she's not done just yet. Sorry Jack. Amelia's just of a mindset that being with a robber leads to nothing but suffering and pain and eventual death. So she's speaking loudly enough to make sure the other "person" hears.]

Does this Jilly know that you're a robber?

[voice]

[lists_to_port]

Aye, she does---but not the abandoning sort of robber you'll recall. I'll always keep her with me.

[In the background, there is a higher-pitched feminine-sounding voice gushing "awwwwww Jacky luv!"]

Re: [voice]

[thedicearecast]

Of course you will. Right until it's time for your next big job.

[There's something off about that voice, but Amelia's not too concerned about it just yet.]

Give her the journal. I'll tell her myself just what robbers are like.

[voice]

[lists_to_port]

Ah! Can't do it, Mistress Amelia. So sorry. She's just gone off to powder...something. Might I take a message for you?

Re: [voice]

[thedicearecast]

I can wait for her to get back.

[This is Amelia, not giving a damn about your date.]

[voice]

[lists_to_port]

.....Looks like she's gone off to powder everything, actually. Can you not make a date with her later-like to have your warning-of-robbers discussion?

Re: [voice]

[thedicearecast]

Later might be too late.

[Especially with that kiss. Which Amelia is not thinking about.]

No. I'll talk to her now, so stop stalling.

[voice]

[lists_to_port]

.......She's.......drunk. So drunk right now. Won't remember a THING you say, Amelia dearest.

[voice]

[thedicearecast]

[...So not the right thing to say.]

She's drunk? You mean that you're planning on taking advantage of a drunk woman?!

Where are you? If she won't remember then at least someone should be there who can protect her from you until she's sober. Typical man, getting a woman drunk and thinking he can do whatever he wants to her.

[voice]

[lists_to_port]

[oh BUGGER she is not going to let it drop!]

I'm ALSO drunk! And I've no pants on!
