Hey, anyone want to go out drinking or something?

Hey, how are things going on your end?

Incoming barrage from the Victoria II!

They're about to fire!

I guess most of you probably wouldn't care, but what the hell.

Hey guys, I found out why the Victoria II and that other ship are here.

Turns out that fancy Erelian ship's ferrying one of the Erelian royal princes. Dunno which one, but he's on his way to Ivona for some negotiation or another. And err..he doesn't have much loot with him, or so I heard.

Oh and in the now very very tiny chance we actually board the Victoria II, there's a guy with long silver hair you should avoid at all cost. Just saying. You know.

[Private]
Well shit. What the hell am I supposed to do about... Damnit.

[Filtered Private to Sephiroth]
Um...well. Isn't this a coincidence!

[Filtered to the 4223]
I've left gifts at every door! Happy Lunasa everyone!

[Filtered to self]
Huh. I guess it was a good thing I met up with him after all.

[Filtered to Sephiroth.]
Thanks for the picture. You should have kept it for yourself. He..he looked happy.

ooc: A list of presents he's giving to people can be found here.

[Zack's kinda talking to himself right now, and is fiddling absentmindedly with the settings of his journal. Luckily, he's got it on private, since what he's saying isn't really what he wants others to hear. But because he isn't really trying, the security on the privacy filter is crap, and is easily hackable to anyone nosy enough to do so. And it's not like he was ever really all that good at it either in the first place.]

So all this talk and action about dreams and stuff got me thinking. Hah! That's a laugh. Me, thinking. HE always told me that I need to think and plan more before jumping into something. And he'd also add a swat to my head just to emphasize it.

When I was a kid, me and the other neighbourhood guys would run around playing stuff like the hero versus the evil dragon, soldiers versus the band of robbers. And I loved playing the hero. Loved it so much I ran off and joined the Ivona military. Kinda regret it now. Not everything, but the fact I didn't say anything to ma and the old man before running off...They probably got a letter saying I died in battle and stuff... It was my dream then. To be a hero. And he said it was good that I had an honourable dream to work for. And honour was a really big thing to him.

So I did my best to be a hero, even after he was gone. And it was okay, for a while. I worked hard, trying to live up to his memory even if the others told me it was impossible.

Until everything went to hell.

And now, years later, instead of being a hero, I'm one of those murdering pirates people curse in the taverns when they're drunk. And when they're not drunk, to tell the truth. Except that the 'murdering pirates' haven't really done any real pirating since I joined up. And some of them a really nice guys.

So who the hell am I now? And what would he he think of me if he saw me now?

ooc: the small text is just him mumbling...^^;

The 500 dubloons is nice and all...but...

What's the catch? No one ever gives out that much money for free...game show or not...

Woohoo! Congrats to your win Kensei! I knew you could do it!

And Reno! How could you LOSE!!!

*Here a sigh could be heard*

At least I came out even in the betting. Better than losing much.

So yeah...Cloud's gone.

I guess I should have expected it, he's always had a bit of a wanderer's soul in him. And he's alright now, and doesn't really need me watching his back all the time.

Still... I wish he could have stayed.

Ahahahahaahahaha

ooc: ^^; Guess who saw Reno and Anko dressed up in the market?

A plane race sounds like real fun! It's too bad I never learned how to fly, though a plane certainly isn't as portable as my sword.

Huh. Didn't like the president or most of the Ivonian councilmen too much, but I do feel sorry for their families.

[private to self]
Well shit. Now that someone's managed to off the prez and his cohorts, I've got a bad feeling about what's coming up next. War most likely. Better start doing some prep of my own.
[/end private]

Ow ow ow ow ow. Stupid cactuars. Stupid needles.


...


Okay, so who pissed them off and led them here?

ooc: ^^; I'm kinda back? I'm still away from home, but I've got pretty steady internet access, but a busy schedule, so I'll be slow tagging and stuff. Oh, and this is backdated to when the 4223 finished up with the lightning business and right after they landed at Byden.

[Filtered to the 4223]
Well, that lightning stuff was interesting. I wouldn't mind doing it again~ But I think I need a new pair of gloves; mine's got this odd smell coming from it now.

Oh by the way, Cloud, this a good time to come see you? You're not too busy fixing stuff, right?

[Filtered Private]
I can't believe I finally found him. I've been looking all over, and the first ship I join as a long term job he pops up. I wonder if I'm unlucky or lucky?

It looks like he doesn't remember a thing...well shit, that's gonna be one awkward conversation....
[/End private filter]

[ In which Zack the puppy sounds way too excited about this.]

Woohoo~ This is going to be really fun!

ooc: backdated to before the storm

[Public]

Uh...this guy wants to do WHAT? Nice idea, but I don't really think it's possible with the way things currently are.

More power to him if he actually succeeds...and make it last more than a couple of months.

Hi, I'm Zack, the new Radio Ops. Nice to meet all of you, and hopefully we'll all get along.

Um...I hear there's a Miss Wolfina that's also working in the Radio room. If you've got time, can you show me where everything is and how it all works so that I don't blow anything up after the ship leaves Trewe?

[/End 4223 filter]

Hi, my name's Zack. I'm in Trewe right now, and I heard you guys were hiring?

I'm handy with just about anything.

Now that Amicus is over, it's time to leave Kropmork I think. It'll be good to go to a place where ninety percent of the residents are NOT going to try to steal my wallet.

Hmm...Maybe they'll be ships or merchants hiring at Trewe? I can afford a ticket there.

[public]
A happy Amicus to everyone! I hope everyone's enjoying the chocolates and other fine things available everywhere with a loved one!

[/end public]

[private]
Huh, so the 4223 is heading for Ivornia. I guess that's to be expected. No job from that quarter then for now, if ever.

[/end private]

[A loud yawn was heard]

There and back in Kropmork again. That merchant sure was in a hurry to get to Bydan and back. At least I was paid well for it and got some cash on hand for the next little while. Haven't really heard any new news on the tragedy in Doma either...

I wonder what's available for breakfast around here?
