Flag Lovin [Ara]

Photobucket

I don't know what was going on in the following picture, or who this is. Maybe Falbard? Apparently I went on a voyage with some flag mates, but I'm writting this two months later and can't remember.

Fun With Alts

I was having an alt parade, and Phae was the only one on in the crew at the time, so every alt said exactly the same thing to her.

Happy Thanksgiving! [Ara]

Thanksgiving time! . . . somewhere not in Viridian. Even so I don’t pass up a chance for a party, or in this case a chance to go to a party. Diamond and her crew threw the party.
mates at the party

Faytel came out of hiding and went to the party too, but she doesn’t know anyone else in the flag really so I suggested they all give her a kiss and a few of them did. She was also welcomed into the flag, but she’s been here for about a year, she just hides most the time.

The Christmas tree kept throwing me off though, why is a Christmas tree at a Thanksgiving party?
Christmas tree already?

I made out with Floody behind the tournement board even thoguh Lawson has forbidden flirting with him.

I also flirted with Seia, but it was a little hard not to when she was running around naked in circles. Hmm, seems like a few days ago another pirate was doing the same thing? I declared that I am Seia and that she is me. She of course played along and confirmed the declaration, restating it herself. I pointed out how similar we are and that we were even going after the same man and therefore we had to be the same person.
Seia is Ara and Ara is Seia.

Fire Makes Me Hot [Ara]

Again something of mine dusted. I must have mites in my stuff cause it keeps dusting. Today I lost a rag shirt and a labor badge.

The boys were talking in fo chat and I was bored, but couldn’t join in on the conversation they were having cause it was over Atlantis charts and I don’t buy or hunt those. I just stand by to XO if someone has one. I suggested instead that they stop talking and start rolling in honey. Falbard seemed all for it. Floody was still playing hard to get. It’s so cute how he thinks that’ll save him.

Then I just flirted with my crew before going to bed, because it was really late when all this was happing.

Ms Solange is Honest [Ara]

First thing I did was send tells to a couple of mates telling them they were all set for the forums. Then I bought my SO badge to replace the one that had just dusted. The next thing I did was greet everyone and let them know I missed anything they might have said to me and sure enough Ms Solange was trying to flirt with me over flag officer chat but I missed it. I really should tell Rads to get a tighter leash on her.

I learned that Ms Solange is too honest to be a true blooded pirate. If someone accidently sends her 10,000 pieces of eight she sends it back. This wasn’t me that was giving away that much money but she told a story of how it happened in the past and she stopped the pirate from giving it to her. I wonder if she’s a ninja spy?

No Port, Only Rum [Ara]

Well I didn’t start out too well. I was an hour late for a pillage I was all set up to XO on. Turns out the night before when Lawson told me what time to show up I was too busy flirting with Floody to pay close attention and when Lawson said 6:30 I heard 7:30. Well it wasn’t Lawson that was battle navigating anyway, it was Rastamon. He told me to bring some hearties so I asked what they were and he told me they were little cookies in the shape of hearts. I guess he wanted a snack.
looked back over chat logs to see why I didn’t remember the right time

I promptly introduced myself, “Ahoy and welcome aboard, I be your Plank Master for this voyage. All hands follow me rules and do right by me or feel me boot as I shove ye overboard.” A pirate called Anjinha thought that was very funny, but I allowed said pirate to remain onboard even after laughing.

I asked why they call the Plank Master the XO and Tikao said it was cause PM was too close to PMS, but I thought it was still fitting, cause you know every guy I plank thinks I just have PMS anyway. Couldn’t have been cause he was doing wrong, had to be that crazy chick XO.

The pillage went relatively smooth. We won all battles. But Rasta kept saying he was a little rusty so Tik and I oiled him down nice and good, or well I did, Tik wanted to help but I threatened to tell Lawson on her. Rasta is my piece of chocolate man, she can find her own.
Rasta and Ara

Rasta wasn’t the only one I flirted with of course, but I’m not tied down to any one pirate I can flirt with as many mates as I want. But it’s not entirely my fault, the ship was called Wicked Seadevil which just makes me want to go into the cabin and do naughty things.
Wicked Seadevil

I was cracking my whip at Firefly who was on carp, but Rasta told me to stop distracting her so I apologized for flirting and said I’d wait until she had the carp down. Then I secretly snuck on carp myself. Sometimes if the jobbers are behaving I help out on an empty duty station.

A pirate called Xmas joined us and said something about being full of present so I wanted to whack her like a piñata and let the presents fall out. She said she was going to get out her naughty list, but Rasta pointed out I’m already on the top of that. Only my kind of naughty gets me extra presents.

I didn’t have much troubles with the jobbers. They mostly worked and stayed on station. There was one little pirate who booched more than once and lazed a little longer after battle than he should or switched stations a lot. I warned him that I’d plank him if he booched again so he went ahead and jumped overboard which I found really funny. You know I don’t really take the time to use the plank anyway, I just toss pirates over whatever side is closest.
random blood from the day

Someone said something about port and I said I only drink the fine rum and only grog or swill if I absolutely must. Rhoaleper said he only uses grog and I commented that I’d never pillage with him cause he can’t provide me with proper drinking accommodations. I of course didn’t mean it, I’m always there for a mate, but I have a reputation to uphold of being a little harsher than that.

After the pillage I was too tired to do too much of anything else. I stabbed at Reficuldrol a few times but then I had to go to bed.

Corset Strings [Ara]

Got the night off to a good start with a little crew fun. Our crew loves each other a lot, but then that’s why we have things like pits of honey.
Ara is drunk. . . or is she?

I then went and helped Lawson and Tikao move a very large ship. We kept getting attacked which completely sucked, so we ported and Law told us to all go help Floody who was already out.

So being the good girl I am, I went to go help Floody. By the time I got there however he was porting.
some mates

I stalked Floody around the deck a few times and he challenged me to rumble. I had a chain and he had a rope, so you know what kind of rumbling we were doing. I won the first round, but then he promptly beat me with little effort twice after that.

Floody is Cheap [Ara]

I entered a rumble tournament, but didn’t get past the first round. Zippy had also entered it and faired as well as I did, we both went up against people that were ult in the first round.
a flower for first place

After my defeat in the rumble tournament I noticed Dunkhan was complaining that he always misses love showers, so I threw one just for him.
Love Shower

I commented about how sometimes I end up with more poe after the shower than I did before, which is odd cause as you all know a love shower is when I give all flag mates and hearties online and the OM on duty one piece of eight. There was speculation on why that occurs and then Seia seemed to think she might try a love shower in the future and see if it works for her as well.
Where’s the other 66, Floody?

Right after the love shower I decided to stalk Arrgy. She was surrounded by animals so I couldn’t get right up on her, but that might be a good things since she said she was feeling a little ill. Everyone should send her a get well card.
Arrgy and animalsArachne and Arrgaretha

Later in the day I went to the sword fighting table to practice my skill. I think it’s a little odd I can stand alone in my house and sword fight people from all over the ocean. The magics of Viridian never cease to amaze me.

Lord Luci came to join me, well stalked me rather. My door is always open to my mates, and normally the rest of the ocean as well.

October Party

The party was a little late. It was supposed to be on the first of the month, but dodging hurricanes and picking up after them had not only caused me to miss giving a September party, but had also thrown me off a little for the October party.

This is the invitation I posted on the flag forums for Brink of Dawn and on the Viridian Event forums. I forgot to also post it here like I normally do for these things.
Intent to Party

Let the party begin!

The room started to fill a lot quicker than the last time. I guess people had so much fun at previous parties and didn’t want to miss out.
mates in the room

As we waiting for mates to pile in we got the kissing booth set up, this isn’t really a booth since I need to walk around from coffers to tournament boards and such. Some pirates wanted to get violent when they didn’t feel their kiss was coming quick enough.
received 69 poe from ReplicaRep wants her kiss now!

Other mates paid me to kiss someone other than their self, which also resulted in the only kiss back of the night.

The first few tourneys were for smaller gold prizes. I started out with no object in the prize box, just about 2,000 piece of eight instead, but as the night went on cash and prizes got bigger.

Some of the other fun party events including what might have looked like a rumble between myself and another pirate, but I had chains and he had a rope. . . you know what we were really doing.
Ara gets tied up

Other mates kept trying to take the drinks I was handing to others, so I handed her one of her own and pretending to be handing it to someone else to fool her into taking it. She was too drunk already to know the difference. I think she started in on the rum before the party. Probably couldn’t have found the house without a wisk.

lots of mates

After a couple of small tourneys and after we had a room full of mates I decided to do a game of I-Spy. I’d never done one at a party before but thought it could be some fun and indeed it was. It was more fun then expected and will probably be at the next party as well. My rules were I’d spy a color of something and the first person to say it and be the most accurate would win that round. For example if I were spying a certain piece of clothing on a pirate, that piece of clothing would be named. Though if it was the only thing of it’s kind, like the paint can under the portrait easel, then pointing out it’s location wasn’t really needed. One of the tricky things about having this game at a party is everyone must remain still or they might hide the object you’re spying when they move. The first person to win three rounds was declared the winner, and that person was Mellificent. She won an unstocked sloop docked at Carmine. The second place winner with two rounds won was Elliebug who received 1,000 poe.

After giving away the first sloop of the night, I thought it was time to party with Dawn. She was supposed to have left me at a previous party but mates left before I got around to giving her away. I learned then to keep the prizes and the money flowing as much as the rum or mates stumble out, so as soon as one game ended another started. Our own flag mate, Rhoaleper won Dawn. I’m sad to see her go, but at least she stays in the flag. I also trained her to hump everything and anything in sight, so he’s sure to have fun with her when he takes her on a voyage or has guests over.

I gained a friend, I gained two actually, Mellificent and Sir Lance. Mell had to leave, but Sir Lance made the mistake of falling asleep at me party. . . needless to say he woke up sore, and covered in honey.
Mellificent has been added to yer hearty list

When it came time to give away the second sloop of the night, which was stocked with 100 balls and 100 rum, I kinda messed up. Mates had asked for a rumble and I forgot and made it sword fight, and I also didn’t put it on local. I did remember to make it unrated however. All future tourneys will be unrated, our goal is fun and prizes, not standings at these parties. My own dropped a couple of times. Trukker rushed over to the ship and took the stock off of it though, which we’ll put on a ship for the next party. Though the party is open to all pirates on the ocean, ye kinda need to be present for the big prizes.

As the night dwindled down and it was nothing but flag mates and Sir Lance left we got into a philosophical conversation about flag mentality.
Rads is disturbed. . . too late mate

We had one more tourney in which I gave away a tree tapestry as first prize and a green flag tapestry as second prize. That green one looks really good in a game room by the way, goes nice with the poker table. I can’t remember who won the green one, but Floody got the tree tapestry. I’m sure it’ll look real nice and out of place in his bungalow.
Floody wins!

Tikao thinks Floody just misses the mark sometimes when it comes to innuendos and such. But it was late, the party had been going on for three hours, maybe he was just drunk?
Floody misses the mark

After a long night and a fun party mates left one by one to go hit their racks or whatever it was they needed to do. Funny thing is, Sir Lance was still sleeping in the middle of the floor when I went to bed. I guess I should have covered him, but I’d had too much rum to think of that at the time.
Rhoal thanks Ara for the party and the dog.
