The Captain is collecting seashells and examining them carefully. The manner by which he preforms this task indicates there’s some purpose beyond mere hoarding.
she waves and says "doing anything important?"
“Sort of. I use these shells to appease the Kuo Toa who occasionally show up in this region. They call the whole place their “territory,” and I find it’s easier to massage their egos than fight my way through each colony we come across.”
"that's actually really smart"
He smiles, pleased. “I’ve always thought so.” *sorry for my slowness, I was cooking up a PBP character*
"I personally would've hired them"
“Heh. We have enough of those around already. Not that they’ve caused the Barnacle much trouble, mind you, but Kuo Toa are hardly ideal soldiers. They are, to say the least, easily distractable.”
"they are good at capturing people though"
“No doubt about it. Have you met our resident Kuo Toa community yet? They’ve been following the boat for a while now, alongside this odd-looking beast they call a “god larva.” Not that I mind — it seems perfectly harmless, and I doubt it has any evil intentions whatsoever, especially those that involve the gradual downfall of human society.”

"hmm. remember that time we fished one out of the water?"
“How could I forget? I didn’t touch a fishing rod for weeks after that!” Cairn chuckles to himself as he examines a sand dollar.

“I’m just about done here, unless you see any more interesting shells?” The Captain stands.
"shells are part of the natural world. therefore they all are interesting"
“I hope the Kuo Toa will agree, or we might have a little problem.” The Captain turns and heads back to the ship, where he deposits the shells in a barrel filled with briny water.
“You mean this Barnacle and the Assurance? Aye, I think that’d be for the best. It’d be a shame to ruin a galleon as nice as this one to those brutal arctic storms.”

"do you have any spare deckhands?"
“I’m sure a few folks here will be happy to pitch in once this abyssal business is resolved.” *ooc I’m wondering how we should handle this. Maybe it’s time for another companion thread like the Athene Crusader.*

*good idea*
*If so it’ll probably be a PBP thread — no sense in cluttering up this subforum any more than it already is (we have six chat-room type threads on the first two pages alone), and the Barnacle is practically a full-scale campaign anyways.*
*This’ll be so fun.I’m already planning the bossfights and arctic encounters!*
