[Yeah, logical arguments definitely always work on pirates.]

Your friend never taught you anything? I suppose I could offer up some pointers. The Jolly Roger's not exactly like other ships.

[hawkeing]

[ "logical," like don't do that, we're friends with the guard captain and she wouldn't want to have to throw you in prison. even if you two have a very tentative friendship. ]

We didn't exactly have a lot of choice. We were all sort of stuck. In a large city. Without a boat. Hers got shipwrecked. She was very disappointed.

[unhand]

And she never stole another? [A beat.] I mean… purchased.

[He didn't mean purchased.]

[hawkeing]

[ oh she knows exactly what he meant and she's not about to say anything. she knows how this goes and really? after everything she's been accomplice to, she has no room to talk. ]

She was stranded and you don't want one of those dingy little things one of the Kirkwall sailors dreamed out of his ass. You want a real ship and that's impossible to find in Kirkwall.

[ there were... other circumstances, too, but hawke has no real idea what those actually... were... ]

[unhand]

[A sorry excuse for a ship will still get you out of being stranded, and can let you go somewhere with better ships. The logic seems shaky for Hook. But he doesn't argue. He doesn't know the lass in question, and perhaps she had other reasons for sticking around.]

She wouldn't have found the likes of my ship anyway. The Jolly Roger's made of enchanted wood.

[hawkeing]

[ there's more to it, of course, but all hawke remembers is the end of the whole thing and the fight with the arishok. sadly. so she may or may not be bullshitting her way through. who knows. ]

Enchanted wood? Is it magic? Does it charm and confuse everyone who tries to steal it?

[unhand]

No, I do that well enough on my own. [He flashes her a smile (diplomacy 37).] Mostly it makes her faster and allows her to travel between worlds, given a proper portal.

[hawkeing]

So I see that. [ she is oddly charmed (will save 24)! ] 'Between worlds?' I don't suppose that has any special significance?

[unhand]

[He is a very charming pirate.]

Hardly see how it could not be significant, that sort of power.

[hawkeing]

[ maker's breath, he is. ]

Do you mean worlds like... the places a lot of us are from? Or something else?

[unhand]

Just so. Though if I've been to the Shadow Realm most speak of I have no memory of it.

[hawkeing]

Ah, right. The elusive memories. It's almost a shame that the Veil here seems to pull so much from us. Though I suppose they wouldn't call it a veil if it didn't hide something, would they?
