An Inglorious Return [video]

[shivvymetimbers]

Gah! I'm soaked to the bone!

[Are yimos waterproof? Hopefully. It would suck if Bastien already broke his. Then again, this pesky pirate always been a tad reckless. It's simply how he is. The accused pirate is back in town and today he looks like a drowned rat or rather...a drowned fish considering the blue scales and fins.]

Ahoy, mateys!

[He grins goofily into the camera looking all bright eyed and bushy-tailed. It seems the pirate is in a good mood despite the slight bruising around his nose. Someone socked him good, very good.]

Didya miss me? Of course ya did! I'm Captain Bastien Courbis, after all.

[The haughty laugh that follows is indeed quite haughty. Bastien is being a pompous arse but he's having fun. Let him have fun, folks.]

Now where's my gang of merry troublemakers? Where's my pretty fern, Trahearne?

[He peers into the screen curiously as if waiting for a reply. This usually soulful brown eyes look amber in the sunlight like a cat's eye. Bastien is hanging out by the pier it seems.]

Also, who made off with me squid?! Little Oswald is nowhere to be found, you thieven landlubbers!

I don't remember anything really. [He mutters quietly as he tries to recall what happened.] I just remember floating in an endless sea of blue.

My fins...were useless. Everything hurt too.

[Most likely because of the explosion upon the ship.]

Ah, Trahearne...where are you? [His voice quivers.] I want to see you.

I'm sorry, Bastien. I didn't mean to dredge up uncomfortable memories.

[His tone's softened quite a bit in response. He doesn't like hearing Bastien be that melancholy, but there's an easy way to fix it.]

I'm in my room at the Bridge. I'd be delighted if you wanted to stop by.

Fear not, turnip-head. I love you all the same.

[He forces the cheer back within his tone. There's no need for such doom and gloom.]

I'll meet up with you bearing gifts! I hope you haven't ate.

[Now he's gently teasing,] I had no idea you were quite so fond of turnips.

If you'd like to bring food, I wouldn't turn that down. This is the perfect time for you to meet Duibhe.

Dui-who?

You'll see once you get here. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
