Nov 07, 2011 19:15

This is Mr. Kennedy. The Britannia, Luceti's new sloop of war under command of Captain Hornblower, is finished and for all purposes ready to sail. Unfortunately, as she cannot sail herself, Captain Hornblower is in need of a crew.

Not many are required simply to sail her. A half dozen at least, although we should prefer more. We do not expect ( Read more... )

...A sloop of war?

voice noprevaricating November 8 2011, 01:18:23 UTC

A ship.

I know the term. [ B( He's just raging at the thought of England having a ship when he isn't even here.]

Is the British Empire expanding into this territory?

voice noprevaricating November 8 2011, 01:40:39 UTC

No. She's only a ship.

A ship is the beginning of a fleet, is the beginning of a war. I knew I should not let my guard down.

Is something the matter?

voice noprevaricating November 10 2011, 23:54:48 UTC

Nothing at all.

voice 4000excuses November 11 2011, 00:04:04 UTC

Then I trust we shall have no problems in the future?

voice noprevaricating November 11 2011, 00:19:51 UTC

Is there a reason why we would?

voice 4000excuses November 11 2011, 00:26:33 UTC

I hold no illusions about how hard the British will fight when faced with the threat of being conquered. Even if England-san is not here, you are one of his people, are you not?

voice noprevaricating November 11 2011, 23:59:52 UTC

...England's a country, sir, not a man.
