Hotaru's gone. Meng's gone.

And I can't drive the boat.

... A seaman who can't pilot a boat?

Boy, you've got a lot to learn. Nobody should set foot on a boat if they can't at least bring it into port in a storm.

Tsk, tell you what. I'll see if I can't get a few of my crew to come and help you bring that boat of yours in to dock somewhere. Anything else will cost you, though.

All I got taught on the Juliet was the grunt work! I'm good at manning the sails and all that; I just never learned how to steer.

That would be appreciated. God, what the hell am I going to do with a pirate ship...

Hey, don't knock the grunt work. The sails are always important, so are the ropes, so is most everything on the ship. Grunts keep a ship running, and every grunt NEEDS to learn how to run the ship. Bad things happen to pirates, after all.

As for what you can do... Either devote yourself to a life as a neer-do-well, or convert her into a pleasure liner.

You can get plenty of action either way.

I think Pidmon never bothered to teach me because I was just onboard temporarily, there were loads of us, and she had remarkable luck with pirates. Plus I think he only let me on because Shar told him to. With Hotaru, we didn't leave port all that often.

...Huh, didn't think about it like that.
