The man that approached me today was like something out of a nightmare. I don't want to believe this is happening. Not now.

Twelve assassins, each with half of a coin...

It must be true. Only he would come up with a sick game like this.

I need to plan my next move. If his messenger found me, then so can the rest.

We can't leave Kropmork soon

I got a few nice flowers this year, they're very pretty!

But this... I don't understand this. All this candy...

[sounds of pages flipping] There's snowball flower in here, along with quince, and strawberry and wheat... but then there's yellow carnation, petunias, snapdragon and licorice, and... white rosebud ( Read more... )

I am not taking that quiz. Don't even ask. Who even thought that was a good idea?!

[FILTERED to everyone on the Way over 20 (including Wolfwood), and the doctors (including Ness)]Okay, so... you've all seen the... quiz by now. You should know that we'll be having an in-person, uh, lecture about sex with the crew. Anyone that wants to help with ( Read more... )

Listen up, crew! We'll be landing at Kropmork in about fifteen minutes ( Read more... )

How could something like this have happened again...?

IT'S REAL!

It's not a mirage! It didn't disappear! In case anyone hasn't taken a look outside, we've now landed at the base of Candy Mountain!

[sounds of shuffled papers and some lightweight objects being knocked over]Okay crew, listen up! Even though we've landed on an island made up of delicious candy, we have to stay alert! There must be other ( Read more... )

I don't know what that gift-giving demon was thinking. I'm not going to use these diet pills!

[FILTERED to the Winding Way]
At any rate, the Long Night is over with, so it's back to work. If you don't have anything else to do, you can go report in to a quartermaster and see about helping to pick up supplies. We need to restock before we get going

I have some important news for everyone.

After talking it over... I've decided to step down. Ryuzaki will be your new captain, and I'll be serving as the first mate under him.

I know this is sudden, but I think he'll do a great job with running the ship. He's a smart guy, and I trust him to work to the best of his ability. I'd like for everyone ( Read more... )

So many people are getting sick... I hope you're all getting lots of rest! Don't forget to drink plenty of orange juice! And try not to cough on me if you can help it.For those of you that aren't feeling under the weather, now that we're docked, we have some cleaning to do! I thought it might be nice to get all the Long Night cleaning out of the ( Read more... )

[taking a deep breath]

It's about time I did this, isn't it?

As you all know by now, Kurt has stepped down, to make sure his health improves. I know we... all wish him the best.

So, that means... he's left me with the ship. I've named Ryuzaki as my first mate. I'll do my best... we'll both do our best to keep the Winding Way running as smoothly ( Read more... )
