A very Pirate-Ninja baby shower. And, er, Happy Hour!

Feb 25, 2010 17:21

Elizabeth doesn't know what to expect from her first baby shower and is, in fact, rather apprehensive when she arrives in the bar this evening. Not that she would let reticence keep her away however, and once the door is shut and she's had a chance to look around she is too busy taking in the decorations to concern herself with how strange the ( Read more... )

There is suddenly one less bottle of sake than before.

:O!

"Put. It. Back."

There's a lot of wood in the decorations of this party. We're just saying because something is pressing into Harth's back.

She's no fun!

"If you get caught, you shame the lot of us," Mel says.

See, it's his fault. He needs to be better than Mel.

Some of those sammiches are made of grog loaf.

All of the grog loaf sammiches belong to Mia.

Dare to disagree and a woman due to deliver tomorrow will bite your hand.

Unless you wish to bring a smoothie for negotiations.

Baking is good for the soul so Demeter has with her a basket full of cookies in various shapes most of them babylike so baskets, there might be a turtle or two, also two beautiful loaves of bread that are braided and have red dyed Easter eggs in them for Liz and MikePr

There's a gamut of drinks beyond rum? That is news to Gibbs.

He takes a tankard of rum and studies the food. And feels homesick for the Pearl. And wonders if Jack will show his face. And ponders if it's bad luck to be at a baby shower. And wonders why Mike is so out of shape, as if pregnant. Which is impossible.

Rum is good for pirates with questions. It makes them forget. And relax and enjoy themselves.

Of all people, Gibbs should know that the impossible can often be... not as impossible as originally assumed.

Watching him, Elizabeth has to quirk a smile. Their situation has much improved lately, thanks to Raph, and it's nice to see Gibbs relax a bit.

Even if she isn't quite there yet.

If he glances her way, she'll raise her fruit drink in acknowledgment.

He raises his drink back. "Captain. It's a very sumptuous feast they throw in your honor."

"Not just in mine, Mr. Gibbs. There are others here in my condition. It is not as," and she has to smile, "unexpected as it is aboard a ship."

Beat.

"Except for Mike, of course."

"Beg your pardon?" The captain must be joking.

Only she has no sense of humor. At least compared to Jack.

She's not.

Elizabeth is quite certain such a joke would never even occur to her.

"He's pregnant, though the baby is actually Bar's, I hear. Magic" Beat. "The father is a pirate."

A sidelong look suggests Gibbs had best prepare himself.

"A pirate..."

Everything here is impossible. A crime against man and God and nature.

"Dear lord. No."

Yes. Who else?

The look she gives him is damn near sympathetic.

"It wasn't Mike. It was Bar."

Beat.

"Jack has always had a fondness for her."

It's a lot to take in. Elizabeth isn't the sort to clap her boatswain on the shoulder, so she looks around and grabs another bottle of rum for the old sailor instead, putting it near his hand.

What bottle of rum? You mean that suddenly empty bottle of rum? The one that Gibbs gulped down faster than he would have ever guessed possible?

In point of fact, it would have been easier at some level to deal with Jack and Mike. Gibbs knows about that side of Jack Sparrow. He doesn't get it, but it's hardly unique among pirates, or navy men. But Jack and...magic. You would think the captain would know better...

No. No, you wouldn't.

"I suppose it's far too much to hope the captain...the other captain, Captain...might not get himself into such impossibilities."

The rum dulls his senses and he feels so much better.
