First Tide Turning ☠ [action + marauding + voice]

Seems there's types about who'd make the village safe. Police; a village watch. They'll want prisons, next. A gallows.

Rather funny, that, considering the nature of the place, eh?

There's rogues about. Mind that; and if you can't, lock your doors.

Cut for action )

climbing in your windows, saqueador, a bit of piracy at last, snatching your people up

... a gallows.

[ ... ]

That seems a little macabre, right? Who needs a gallows? This place is just full of upstanding men and women who want to do good, right? What do we need a gallows for anyway? It'd go to waste, nobody using it and all.

[ ... ah ... ahah ... ]

Rogues shmogues. This place is totally safe! [ No it's not Flynn. ]

Exactly! Fully macabre! Fully and unrighteously macabre! We don't need 'em, says I! The pillory were bad enough! Well spoke, sir!

Right you are! Why, if we're going to have some sort of law around here, then I say we propose a law against gallows! Totally unnecessary. And prisons, for that matter! Who needs 'em, right? I'd've thought the civilized folks around here could do without resorting to such brutal tactics.

I MISS HER. SHE WAS SO AWESOME. <3 lists_to_port July 24 2011, 02:17:12 UTC
I'm.....not certain I want laws against laws. [Because a law is a law is a law, or so says the Bob Loblaw Law Blog.]

But I'd not be against burning a gallows in effigy. Make a statement, like.

I KIND OF MISS HER TOO. she was such a cutie. and I replace her with this idiot. gasconadead July 24 2011, 03:35:27 UTC
O ... kay, point taken. That was dumb, ignore it. For get all the laws! Who needs laws.

[ Conscience, stop chewing at him. He is a thief! A vagabond! A rogue, even! Such an unprincipled man should not feel slightly bad about saying such things. ]

Oh, hey, I like that. Send a message to all these law enforcement types! No gallows, ever!

... we'd probably just make them mad, wouldn't we. [ To do it anyway or not to do it anyway. ]

She was so cute. ;; lists_to_port July 24 2011, 11:50:05 UTC
A loose-fitting, comfortable code should be enough. If it's good enough for pirates? It's good enough for anyone, really!

And aye......we'll be winding them up, though perhaps they wouldn't care so much about what we say on the matter.

maybe if I can handle-- gdit enter key. maybe if I can handle flynn, I'll bring her back. >> maybe! gasconadead July 25 2011, 00:25:58 UTC
... pirates. So I guess that makes you one of those, right? Pirates. A pirate code. .... well, it can't be much different from the usual fare. [ That being thugs with hooks. ] Count me in. Pirates' code works for me, uh, mate.

Proooooobably not. What say we do it anyway?

NO PRESSURE. DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO. lists_to_port July 25 2011, 01:12:43 UTC
You truly wish to adhere to the pirate's code, what are in fact guidelines which most of us ignore but we like havin' them anyway?

[Not once has anyone here offered to turn pirate in quite this way.]

WOW THIS IS SO LATE, HI gasconadead July 31 2011, 03:54:50 UTC
...... sssssure, why not. Or, uh, why don't you tell me what this code is all about, first?

One of the first Rules of the Code, lad, is do unto yourself as you would have you do unto you. Never forget that.

[ Opens mouth .... shuts it. IS THAT THE WORST RULE EVER OR IS IT JUST HIM? Did that even make sense? ] Rrrrr .... iiiiiight. Do unto myself as I would, uh, do unto me. Great. What's the second rule?

Take what you can; give nothing back.

[These rules keep getting better and better, right?]

Now that one I can get on board with! [ NOW they're getting somewhere. ]

And one of the more important rules for survival? The man who falls behind is left behind. No going back for the weak, lad.

[ He's about to protest, unable to help but think of what happens if HE'S left behind ... then realizes that's a preposterous idea. He's Flynn Rider. That would NEVER happen to him! So he just grins like he's got it aaaall figured out. ]

Works for me. Who needs weaklings anyway? Not us. We're real men.

Erm......right. Real men! Pirates! Pirates the lot of us.
