Yo ho yo ho, a pirate's life for me...

[gottalovetheboots]

Zarina was at the helm again, which was always a curious sight to watch a six inch fairy man and steer a vessel when she had issues with full sized doors. But it was one of those things pixie dust allowed was to make things move, and she was very good at these things. That's why she was captain, also she had acquired the boat from the previous crew rather forcefully so most didn't bring up the idea of mutiny. Plus, she was very kind... unless you crossed her.

She let one of the crew take over for a bit to flit about and make sure that everything was as it should be, before she retired to her quarters to work on her 'experiments.' This was the reason she took the ship out again, she wanted to see what other pixie dust results she could get, from materials beyond Neverland and into the mainland. And her crew was... accepting of her small size and didn't make a fuss about it.

Come talk to the captain, she doesn't bite.

Margot had never thought she'd run into anyone tinier than her, but then she met Zarina. The two had sailing in common, so even though her captain was an itty bitty fairy, Margot was more than willing to sign up for the crew. It wasn't unusual for her to take contracts -- her magic made her useful on a ship, able to calm storms and put wind in the sails.

It was almost a pity that everything had been smooth so far, Margot left without much to do.

Bored, she made her way to Zarina's quarters, a deck of cards in one hand and a flask of whiskey in her coat pocket. She's got to do something to pass the time and playing poker with a fairy seemed amusing enough.

She leaned against the doorframe, knocking. "Hello?~ Anyone home?"

The Captain's quarters had two doors to it, the larger door for the crew, and a smaller door cut into the wood around the height of a doorknocker or peephole. That smaller door flew open as the captain came to see who needed her. Fortunately, Margot's magic meant she was a human that actually understood fairy speech. Which not all the crew could do (but a few of them had the same ability as James).

"Oh, one second," Zarina flew back down and there was an audible click as she turned the key in the door. "It's unlocked now!"

The cabin was what one would expect of a Captain's cabin, except most of the lived in furniture was all over the captain's desk. Bed, table, some other odds and ends of personal living. Plus a long table of alchemic purpose, vials, bottles, tubes, ingredients... in sizes ranging from impossible for humans to use to bulky for a fairy, but tiny for a man. "Is there a storm on the horizon, something you sense out there?"

Roxas wasn't expecting to walk onto a pirate ship when he used the Dark Corridor to come to this world. The last time he had came to Neverland it was on the island with a pirate ship in the distance. And normally the place where they go into the world doesn't change.

So why did this one change? Maybe it's something that needed to be investigated. Why he was told to go to this world for a second recon mission in the first place.

The first thing Roxas does it try to take a look around the deck to see if there was anything. It wouldn't be good if there was anything such a heartless here on a ship like this. A ship doesn't give him much room to make sure he wasn't seen by anyone but he had to do his best.

Unfortunately for Roxas, the crew has certain expectations of the captain. She's fair, and kind, but she has to hold a line down or they might start getting... ideas. And she didn't really have the time to fight one of her crew with her sword.

Instead she'll just flutter down in front of Roxas's face, sword drawn and pointed at his nose. The sword looks remarkably like a sharpened hairpin, but don't let that fool you, the little fairy is deadly with the thing! "Why are you on my ship?"

Now... this is where it gets tricky, can Roxas understand fairy chime?

[meguriau]

The last thing Roxas expected was a tiny fairy in front of him with a sword pointed at his nose. Or well, a sharpened hairpin but that's not exactly the point.

"H-hey!"

He stepped back in surprise. Sadly, fairy chime doesn't seem to be a language that he's able to understand in this world. Maybe if everyone in the world spoke it but if that's not the case well...

Still, he'll try his best to see what the fairy is trying to convey.

"Is this your ship?"

[gottalovetheboots]

Well, she isn't stabbing you, so you said the right thing. ...But she isn't putting the sword away either. She just nods, since that look pretty much conveys how much he understands her. She still hasn't found a combination of ingredients to make a translation pixie dust. But it is still on her to do list.

She points the sword at him, not quite as menacingly, but it is still a pointy thing. "Why are you here? Did you bring the monsters with you!?"

[meguriau]

A nod is a good sign. It means that this is her ship and somehow he's landed on it. And it probably means that this pixie thinks he has trespassed. He has no idea what the pixie said next so he once again takes a shot in the dark and explains why he's there.

"I'm here to see if there are any monsters here. If there are I can take care of them."

[gottalovetheboots]

She narrows her eyes at him, because a monster hunter right now is a bit too convenient. Of course, if this was James trying to get one over on her, he'd have found a boy who could speak fairy. "Well... there are monsters, and I can use the help as most of my crew are cowards in the dark..."

Not that he understood her, but her tone said how annoyed she was to be down here... and she flew past Roxas to fend off a heartless that formed in the shadows behind the boy.
