Jovloff's Gold - OOC: 1

[KaskaChee]

Woo! I'm aboard too, although I can't claim that my post is as entertaining as Fu's .

[Ylva Rasmussan]

Bah just as good! Sometimes I just feel that I'll forget to post cause I'm too busy reading everyone elses good posts. 

[Fu Luft]

Yes, a great adventure post, Kaska. Noisy-breath indeed! it certainly doesn't get boring for poor Fu. Take that, thief! 
(And thanks, everyone!) 

[Yurie Yileen]

Yep, don't worry about your opening post being too long, Fu; it's great to see such enthusiasm!  And a great post from Kaska, too!  Actually, great posts from everyone, I'm glad that things are moving along nicely.   

Fu was right with the timing of the two threads.  Chapter Two is currently happening on the same evening as the party.  So, whilst we're all having some top nosh and getting nicely drunk, Kaska and Fu are stuck in a dark storeroom together!  (Hmm, if the loving ain't gonna happen between Koka and Jarrox... )

I'll get a reply done with Jorn soon, which will address the animal and arrow issues.  Then I think we should wrap it up and get to bed!

[KaskaChee]

Me thinks someone needs to get it on with one of Yurie's characters.....he's obviously yearning for some romance hehehe 

@Fu: I'm sure she will think of some worse names for other members of the crew....

[Eric Kattaisson]

Hey!  I'm a married man now!  If my wife found out I was having a virtual romance she'd kill me!  lol

So, like Simonne, my characters' are 'romance free'!  And besides, who in their right minds would want to get it on with Eric the paranoid pirate?   

[KaskaChee]

Oh, that explains why it's on your mind then, I'd forgotten already 

Congrats Yurie, think I missed saying it the first time!

[Serpentfang]

I can't imagine an 8 foot tall lizard doing it with anyone.

... On second thought, Jorn is a very wealthy man, right? *Rawr*

[KaskaChee]

Thankyou Jannox for that mental image 

[Yurie Yileen]

Thanks, Kaska!  And Jarrox, I suppose a seven foot lizardess might be interested...maybe there are some in the jungle!  But, erm, I think you'll have somebody else to keep you company...   (Starts an evil laugh  )

[Serpentfang]

Is that lady lizard a rich reptile? I know Jornie is! *tickles the merchant's triple chin while cuddling*

[KaskaChee]

Mallorix hun, I'm confused.  The way I saw things happening went:

Daytime - Men are loading ship.  Shortly after lunch, Kaska slips aboard.  Because the men are still loading, she carries on hiding until Fu gets there.

Evening - Crew are now resting, Captain goes to sleeping quarters.  About nowish Fu is being chased by some men, and gets onto the ship and hides in the storeroom.

Kaska waits until he falls asleep and then creeps up to try and steal his locket.


So I'm not sure which morning Mallorix is entering - if it's the morning they're loading the cargo, then it would have been the morning of this day described above, at which time neither Fu nor Kaska are there!  And we haven't got to next morning yet, when all the others will be arriving .

The star-crossed tale of a serpent and a merchant!!   

[Yurie Yileen]

Okay, maybe I can sort out the confusion with the time.

The Southern Arrow uses a watch system to regulate who works and when.  Basically, the crew are split into two watches, namely the starboard watch and the larboard, (port), watch.  Each watch lasts for four hours and is measured out by a bell.  When a watch changes the bell rings eight times, in pairs; ding-ding, ding-ding, ding-ding, ding-ding...

So, the watch that had been resting gets to work, and the watch that had been working go to rest.  The bell is then rung once for every half-hour.  Assuming that a new watch begins at midnight, then at 00:30 the bell will ring once.  At 01:00 it will ring twice.  At 01:30 it will ring three times, ding-ding, ding...  After four hours, at 04:00 in the morning, the bell will ring eight times, and the watch will change over.  The bell then resets, 04:30 being marked by one bell.

Phew!

With this in mind, it would be possible for Mallorix to start work at midnight on the evening of the party, or four in the early morning.

Does that make sense?  Or am I writing 中文? 

[Rookie Brownbark]

It does make sense Yurie, thankyou!

Not sure where he got the crate from, but I can write something now (when the timeline in my head goes wonky it's very difficult )

Edit: this is Kaska btw, I just forgot to change accounts.
