Ragtag: Steampunk treasure hunting.

Tally ho! And Deth isn't Dariq going to share? D:

Now that we will soon all be off the ship it is time to kick things up again! Mwuahaehahahehehahhaha! *Thunder booms in the background* *Women and children scream* *Other sounds and events that will foreshadow what is to come *

Ragtag: Steampunk treasure hunting.

*Nudges the thread*
Have been away for the last two days, didn't think to say anything, sorry.
Also, as you have probably seen by now Simina will not be walking the plank. :p

or will she...... hehehehehhe.... probably not.

Ragtag: Steampunk treasure hunting.

Maithien saw Miss Katewyn emerge from the stairs in the corner of his eye. She had that animal with her still. He was still perplexed as to where it had come from. And frankly he was offended a bit at the thought that his ship could be infested with an army of unknown animals. But oh well, he supposed the thing wasn't too bad. As long as it didn't bite. Maithien gave a small nod to Katewyn. And then-

"WAIT A SCREECHIN' MINUTE!!"

Maithein jumped noticeably and quirked his head behind him to see Simina marching towards him with a look on her face that, dare he say, would have made his father pause out of fear. Was she that offended over him messing up a simple pat on that back? He hoped not, he frankly needed an engineer. "What's wro-" Maithien tried to say. However he was cut off when the angry little woman started shouting at him more. She didn't have to yell, he really wasn't that much taller than her.

Simina launched into a tirade of twenty questions about the journey, The ship, the men that attacked everyone at the docks, the treasure, and even about leaving the ship. The working part of Maithien's brain thought that all of her questions were completely fair to ask, in fact he was actually very surprised and even kind of worried that no one else had bothered to inquire about such things minus a few very small times. But unfortunately the nonworking part of his brain was currently in charge. So at the moment he just had a very surprised look on his face and was stuttering and occasionally pushing out some half formed words. "Dar..Dariq flew?"

Luckily Arturous jumped into the conversation and calmed things down. Which also helped Maithien get his thoughts in order to speak. "Uhm, Right." Maithien nodded dumbly. "Fair enough?"

"So, Let's see.." Maithien tried to recall all the questions he had to answer. "We'll start with the treasure I guess, root of all this. Back before the war, you know, the war. There was some rich ground dweller that got killed or captured. As far as I can tell their inheritance is still up for grabs. I think they had a far lesser known holding where they kept most of their wealth. Of course the documents stating where this holding is found have been obscured by a war, along with a few centuries added on to that. The package is some information that should help us find it."

"The idiots that tried to shoot us.. Dariq and I had had a few previous run ins with them. They were possible candidates for shipmates. But they did a few things to make me nervous so I told them they weren't welcome. I didn't see them again until our lovely battle." Maithien said with a frown.

"Most of you can stay on the ship if you have too.. I just thought it would be good for everyone to get to stretch their limbs while they still can I guess. Like I said we need to get that one fellow a doctor so someone will have to take him.. And I'm not sure how that lady who hurt her ear is doing now that I think about it also. Though I guess I can make Dariq take em." Now that Maithien was thinking about his first mate he would have thought Dariq would have shown up on deck by now, where was he?

"I wanted people to travel together so no one would be late coming back to the ship. In case someone got drunk or something. Plus, I didn't really want to do the deal alone I guess.. Sounds boring. But now I admit I didn't think someone may just want to rest on the ship." He said. Namely that someone at the moment being Simina. Now that he focused for a moment he realized that it was possible she was tired from, as he had put it, the excellent work on the engines. Plus he hadn't really bothered to check on how the rest of his crew was faring either. Perhaps a bad call on his part. "Sorry." He said in a somewhat quieter voice.

As incredibly amazing as that would be it sadly cannot. :p I've talked with Deth and since his character is the first mate and he hasn't written anything about what he did during the flight I am going to be saying that he was flying the ship. Thus covering up my poor GMing! :D

Expect a post pretty soon.

Ragtag: Steampunk treasure hunting.

Tis' fine Oni. Haven't been great at the moment either.

Will get a post out soon.. Also...

*Hits Mokley upside the head.* You weren't supposed to point out the glaring plot whole of who was piloting the ship! D: Now I gotta come up with a plausible answer! :p

Ragtag: Steampunk treasure hunting.

All good!

Ragtag: Steampunk treasure hunting.

Sorry for taking so long. And sorry you have no patience Deth :P

Mokley, for the record I was going to just pat Simina on the back but then I remembered she was a dwarf, and the height difference, and the awkwardness... I just couldn't help it :D

Ragtag: Steampunk treasure hunting.

"Good evening Simina." Maithien greeted with a smile on his face on her heels up the stairs. "I don't believe I ever said before. But excellent job on the engines." And indeed so. If it hadn't been for her it would have added days on their flight. Maithien felt sick at the thought of losing time. He went to give Simina a pat on the back for her good work, but he had forgotten how much shorter she was than him. So his hand merely whiffed above her head. Maithien coughed awkwardly and then stayed silent. Hoping she didn't notice that had happened.

"Ah my friends all is well!" Oh! An excuse to leave this conversation!

Turning around quickly Maithien realized that it was Arthur. Where in the world had he been all this time!? One of the few fellows that bothered to show up before the rest of this... feminine lot. For what little Maithien knew of Arthur, which was he had a nice hat and he had bothered to both sign and turn in the papers Maithien had given out. He liked him. Bactracking to the papers Maithien recalled that most of the contracts and papers, signed or otherwise, were left at the docks. Which made him frown for a moment.

"Hello Arthur!" He said. Quickly pacing his way towards the excited man. And away from the dwarf he may or may not have offended.

"I believe we're in Braelv"

Believe? Did no one on this ship listen to him? Or bother to look at a sign? "Indeed, Braelv! Interesting place. But we hopefully won't have to spend too much time here. Mainly need to get something. Though we will of course need to get a Doctor for our birdman I suppose." At this he jutted his thumb behind him. Though to be honest he didn't really have a clue where that psychopath was. "With luck we we'll be out of here and will have found the treasure before you all start greying."

Maithien abruptly stomped on the deck and shouted once more. "Everyone out!"

Ragtag: Steampunk treasure hunting.

People may be a bit busy at the moment. Holiday and all that.

Ragtag: Steampunk treasure hunting.

No worries Oni!

FuzzyFly and I have decided that Arthur will be starting on the ship for convenience sake. In the first post I had said that Maithien had let on a few people already so.. Yeah..
