[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 7154206, member: 20323"] Meanwhile, back at Blackreef's Tavern... [video=youtube;N9xqZLvlIEo]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9xqZLvlIEo[/video] There is faint accordion and horn music outside, growing louder so it's just audible above the din of drunken pirates. It seems that old Fulke "Mad Eyes" Smyth has at last gotten up the courage to confront the singing pirates down by the docks which the tavern overlooked. [b]"Hehehe, look it's Smyth! Gonna' try to shut them singing pirates up!"[/b] cackles a one-legged rapscallion with sunburnt Irish complexion. [b]"He better not get 'imself killed,"[/b] growls another over his mug, [b]"he owes me 10 shillings...or any reasonable tender with a privileged European in the center."[/b] Outside you can hear voices muffled by the evening surf, some kind of an exchange between Smyth and the Singing Pirates... [I][b]"A pirate i was meant to be! Trim the sails and roam the sea!"[/b] [/I] [b]"...see here, I'm willing to be reasonable...I've a wager riding on this, and if we can come to terms, I'm willing to go in half way with you lot, but you'll need to quit...the...singing..."[/b] [I][b]"We're a band of vicious pirates A-sailin' out to sea! When you hear our gentle singing... You'll be sure to turn and flee!"[/b][/I] [b]"Well, maybe you wouldn't be destitute if you tried more sailing and less singing?"[/b] [I][b]"When we defeat our wicked foe, his ship he will be bailing! If ye try ta fight us... ...you will get a nasty whackin'! If ya disrespect our singin'... ...we will feed ya to a kraken!"[/b][/I] [b]"This is ridiculous, lads. For the love of Saint Maria... Stop! Stop! Stop!"[/b] [I][b]"The brass is what we'll polish and the deck is what we'll mop."[/b][/I] [b]"Oh...uh...if it's got to be that way. Well then...
