[ a small nod, and soysauce cheerfully trots alongside heather -- giving a small laugh at 'could do without pirates.' ]

I think a lot of people here could do without the pirates, yes? Especially these ones. After all -- they're not exactly the type of pirate one thinks of when hearing the word 'pirates,' yes? Where's the gallant swashbuckling, the sense of thrill, the possibility of an honorable duel? Aah, it could have been so grand!

[ soysauce is clearly joking though, his airy words punctuated with wide sweeps of his arm, and he laughs before pattering one, two paces ahead of heather. walking backward before her as he grins. ]

I suppose we'll just have to make do with these poor imitations for now, yes?
