Awww, thank you yet again! (the 'and what did you steal line was written by kaiyabeck!)

[kaiyabeck]

Just <3. Forever.

I think my favorite part was Roxas's babbling. You can really feel the fear (and how could you not, when he's being stared down by a scary pirate captain?)

Although the interaction between Roxas and the Carrion crew is always awesome. ^^

Can't wait until he starts interacting with the Wheel of Fortune crew this is gonna be great~ *bounces*

[ts_soliloquy]

N'awwwwww Kaiya. ♥ ♥ ♥

xD That part was definitely my favourite too! That huge sentence. And the Carrion crew are a total blast to write, what can I say?

Yessss I'll go start Chapter 4 right now~

[sparkism]

I am still really loving the fail!pirate crew. xD

Pirates have middle names? Oh God, he used her middle name. I am dead I am dead I am so very dead.
AHAHAHA ♥ LUXORD DEFENDING NAMINE'S VIRTUE. poor, poor Roxas.
I love Lux and Nam's word battle and Tifa coming up and reprimanding them. xD and Roxas's p.o.v. was pretty much perfect here, haha~

CAN'T WAIT FOR MORE YAY. ♥

And Xigbar has no sexy face scar? d'aww, bummer.

[ts_soliloquy]

They won't be reappearing for a couple of chapters, unfortunately. I'm gonna miss writing them. ♥

I loved writing panicky!Roxas! He was so cute and hilarious and innocent. Haha, thank you!

I'LL HAVE TO GET CRACKING THEN. ♥

At least he didn't get his face torn open by Heartless this time? D:

[sparkism]

And I'm gonna miss reading about them. D: Oh well~

♥

*encourages you*

I suppose that's a plus. xD

[littlecatlost]

OMG, AWESOME SAUCE!

It's real hard to find the words to express how much I loved this, since it's already been said by others.

I think it's impossible for me to narrow down just one part that I liked the best. It was just so chock full of fun and amazing lines to read! Of course, I loved Roxas's panicky one, big sentence ramble and Xigbar's response was just perfect! LOL! And Tifa just continues to kick ass.

I would expect Xigbar to be a more competent pirate, if not a captain himself, but it's still all good.

Very amusing, and exciting chapter to read!

[ts_soliloquy]

Hee, THANK YOU! :D :D :D

Roxas's ramble was definitely my favourite. That and his 'He knew exactly what that meant'. And of course Tifa kicks ass!

Xigbar's actually a very competent pirate, even if he doesn't seem to be one right now. He just doesn't like doing storage duty because he finds it boring, so it's pretty much the only duty he'll shirk. He wasn't quick on the draw for advice like Tifa was at the end because he (and the rest of the crew) are not used to Luxord's temper, but he's actually a very reliable first mate, as we'll come to see. ;)

I imagine he'd probably be too laid-back a captain, but even so, there's a reason he doesn't want to be a captain. But that's to do with his ~mysterious past~ that we'll find out about eventually. xD

Thank you~~! (whoa this reply got really long)

[littlecatlost]

Ah, I gotcha. I hope ya didn't take that as a real negative. It was just something I found a little curious.

Thanks for explaining it to me. I guess we just haven't seen the more typical pirate!Xigbar at his best yet. :) That actually goes along with my own image of Xigbar. He's certainly capable of being a leader (whether in canon with Org13 or whatever), but he doesn't want that burden. He's a free spirit, in my eyes.

Anyway, yeah. I agree with ya. Keep on being awesome! :D

[ts_soliloquy]

Nah, I didn't take it as negative at all! Xigbar did sorta drop the ball this chapter, but he was meant to. xD We just haven't had the opportunity to see the crew in full action yet.

[at_splickenfic]

I’ll have to hide you in my room
XD XD The second I read that, I just burst into laughter. XD Roxas, man, you're hiding in the scary pirate captain's daughter's room. When he inevitably catches you, what the heck do you expect him to think? XD

XD And the line about middle names, Tuna, this story makes me so happy. XD

[ts_soliloquy]

At least Naminé was prepared for it! xD Too bad there's no lock on her door...

xD Thank you! Writing this makes me happy some I'm just glad it rubs off! ♥
