Y'speak Sinn?

weifengyiyu April 12 2009, 05:40:13 UTC

Laa. Al-Hebb only.

[She sounds surprised.]

Y'do?

shenghuanzhe April 12 2009, 05:48:10 UTC

Yeah. Spent some time in Sinna, learned how t'speak it.

[He grins.]

Lotsa Sinn in Barneo and New Pointe City, too, not so many in Iquailut.

weifengyiyu April 12 2009, 06:02:08 UTC

Y'surprise me. What else did'ya learn?

[She pauses to stretch, it's her first break since she started working as crew.]

So does th'great man ever give y'time off?

shenghuanzhe April 12 2009, 06:04:03 UTC

Plenty.

[Kage looks over at the crates he's been doing an inventory check on.]

Laa. We work, kital, we ain't here t'play.

weifengyiyu April 12 2009, 06:08:47 UTC

[Meifeng snorts and switches to Al-Hebb.]

You work a shift on my ship and tell me that. It's nice to sit down and have a few minutes to eat.

shenghuanzhe April 12 2009, 06:15:36 UTC

[Al-Hebb]

Fuckin' truth, kital. Here I usually get at least-- fuckin' six hours'a sleep a night? My own chamber? Shit, I can have new clothes whenever th'fuck I want, too.

[Audio // Al-Hebb] weifengyiyu April 12 2009, 06:20:38 UTC

[Meifeng laughs a little.]

Even got me a new arm.

[Audio // Al-Hebb] shenghuanzhe April 12 2009, 06:21:32 UTC

How's it workin' out? Mechanic's somethin' else, eh?

[Audio // Al-Hebb] weifengyiyu April 12 2009, 06:30:45 UTC

A little strange, I'm gettin' used to it. He told me it was better than the old one.

It took him no time, m'impressed.

[Audio // Al-Hebb] shenghuanzhe April 12 2009, 06:34:54 UTC

He's got some good shit down there. Some'a his tech is better than The Beautiful World's. They don't got holos, though. Fuckin' miss goin' to the holos.

[Audio // Al-Hebb] weifengyiyu April 12 2009, 06:46:13 UTC

Atch-ch-ch-ch don't remind me. Y'remember th' one with th' ... pool slave, was it? And th' tiger?

[She grins.]

[Audio // Al-Hebb] shenghuanzhe April 12 2009, 06:48:26 UTC

[He snerks.]

Pool slave comes outta th'baths and holds up this fuckoff big towel and says--

[Audio // Al-Hebb] weifengyiyu April 12 2009, 06:58:12 UTC

[She says it at the same time as him.]

"Towel, mistress?"

[Audio // Al-Hebb] shenghuanzhe April 12 2009, 07:00:36 UTC

[Kage bursts out laughing, smacking the arm of his chair as he cackles. Humour, in Al-Hebb, had always been about play on language and subversion of social classes. For a population that lived cheek by jowl with war every day, slapstick 'comedic' violence was anything but.

Kage snickers.]

How th'fuck did they get that past th'censors?

[Audio // Al-Hebb] weifengyiyu April 12 2009, 07:03:51 UTC

[Meifeng laughs with the first mate, wiping her eyes. Ah, she'd missed joking with someone who understood the hilarity of Al-Hebb humor.]

They almost didn't!

And you ... y'remember the part with th' oil lamp?
