Well guys, if anyone needs a passenger, Archie's your guy.
As far as backstory goes... I've no idea. sweatdrop Gotta take a peak at those profiles again.
Brief overview on Archie's character: *Presently, a butler/majordomo; formerly, an operative of a covert operations unit. *Hard working, focused, determined; growing up, he was always the best without meaning to (noncompetitive nature). *Loves order, perfection, and purpose. *Can be stubborn, insensitive, and demanding. *Still strong and nimble for his age (57); skilled in Bartitsu and Krav Maga. *No special/magical abilities as of now. *Vegan.
Let me know if he's someone your character would be interested in interacting with. smile

Hester would love to Archie aboard her ship. She would treat him more like an adviser than a butler though since he has the experience and knowledge. Plus she loves having order and planning out everything.

Fleur is a member of his crew, and appreciates (even trusts) his instincts about the ship. She understands he doesn't trust her much, as is the way with most pirates, so she doesn't seek his companionship. Years ago she harbored something of a crush on him but she's grown past that now. Of course she has.
I love it ! That sounds totally perfect . William will trust her to do her job and not lie to him about what she hears on the airwaves , but also expect that she may not be telling the truth . Because he's like that >< Oh , also , I love the song you picked !
Thanks! I'm a huge fan of Pentatonix (never heard of Daft Punk before but it fits). And yes, Tesunie, 5 years between her and Gerald (math is more her strong suit than mine, sorry), not unbridgeable but unlikely. On the other hand, as the tale progresses, who knows? Definitely liked the kitchen scene. lol

I actually listened and liked the sounds of the song you had for your profile. It's interesting.
So, you think there would be a kitchen sink left to throw before we would be capture, or someone else came to help? ninja
By the way, just to say it, as I was reading your profile (as I figured I'd get accustomed to my shipmates), Gerald inside my head I think was Crushing hard... Hard to describe, but I thought it was funny and worth noting. (However, I can see him not taking any action on his part.) We'll have to play it out and see what happens. They may end up arguing more than anything else too, being so similar and all. emotion_dealwithit (Because it's a funny emote).

On the topic of relationships, here is a quote from Fyodor Dostoyevsky that I recently read that I think will sum up Skipjack's attitude toward others fairly well: “The more I love humanity in general the less I love man in particular. In my dreams, I often make plans for the service of humanity, and perhaps I might actually face crucifixion if it were suddenly necessary. Yet I am incapable of living in the same room with anyone for two days together. I know from experience. As soon as anyone is near me, his personality disturbs me and restricts my freedom. In twenty-four hours I begin to hate the best of men: one because he’s too long over his dinner, another because he has a cold and keeps on blowing his nose. I become hostile to people the moment they come close to me. But it has always happened that the more I hate men individually the more I love humanity.”

I love the fact that everything you hear on their tracks is 100% made by them, no instruments! Your music fits Gerald well, too!

Clearly Reim would have close contact with two. Charles and Hester

Charles would be close and I do believe Reim has a spark of interest in her that he keps within. Well maybe hint on it form time to time.
Hester as his superior officer would know him and possible knew of his Mother and depending on age his father.
Negative Then Rob (hah Trance again) Clearly one who I can see slamming glas with under tense air. Or atleast laugh quite loud at Hester making Rob bend the knee in proper way.
Neutral
Maybe not seeing eye to eye with Archie seeing how his ability can make him a loose cannon and not as in line with order. I doubt Reim would dislike Archie but as I can see the order against unpredicability. Even if Reim likes to know and plan ahead his plans may not be what other think is proper or ...sane
Thornwick
That's what I got right now. But then again I'm at work and should not be doing this as much right now maybe ^__^

Well Trance and I agreed that Captain is a good enough title for her. And I doubt she would know Reim's parents, she grew up in Port Au Prince and a pirate ship lol before pretending to be a guy with no family to get into the military and climb up the ranks.

Well then no, it would not be likely. I was still on the fact that Admirals often now each other I was following. Well know of each other might be more, I'm rambling. Well then as a fellow pirate hunting cap then I can believe a competetive relation between the two. Counting bounties collected in the lobby.
Reim: Well fine, you got more, but my dicipline and navigator is sexier then yours. That has to be worth 3 bounties giving us a tie.
Seeing how he has his mother high the army he'd find her a worthy opponent to compete with. and Laugh at Rob Roy if he gets his balls kicked

I did notice, and liked, that part of the song. I also liked the girls make-up. It was strange, but she pulled it off perfectly. (The bright blue eye trick was... freaky though...)
Gerald is going to be fun. He's not "normal", so it's going to be interesting to play. My brother, as I was describing my character to him, called him "eccentric"...
Unless I get a veto, here's some concepts I was thinking for back story relevant to the role play: - Gerald has been on the ship for just under a year. He joined up when he was still 17, so his birthday is coming up soon (probably a months time in the role play). (He probably hasn't told anyone his date of birth, unless someone has asked him.) - His first three words to Fleur I can see being, as he's taking the 'tour' with the Captain, is, "She's Cute." And the walks away like nothing happened. - He has a tendency, if he isn't cleaning/cooking or doing something else, to watch people work. He will literally just stare at them. (And this would include Fleur. Probably has some creep factor to it, but he means nothing of it. With Fleur, I'm thinking she's the only one where he will try to press some knob or something while he watches...) - Warning: If it wasn't for his usefulness, and the type of social level I believe/feel this world to have, you'd probably be sending Gerald to an asylum and see if he could get his head screwed on straight. However, he's interactive and very useful. (He isn't crazy or anything, he just isn't... normal. Probably all the past trauma he's suffered. To avoid farther pain, he's closed himself off, and stopped trying to care too much about things around him.) - I can see Gerald obtaining one of his jackets in the following manner. *While preforming a raid* "Hey Captain. I like this guy's jacket. Can I get one?" Captain "Sure, Gerald." *Looks to man* "Looks about the right size. Hand the jacket over." Gerald "Thanks Captain!" *Walks off with his new jacket not even caring it use to be someone else's a few moments ago.*
(And no. I don't role play with the *s. That's just me doing quick scenes.)

Not just one part, the whole video is that way, no instruments at all in any part of it!
Gerald walked away, so he didn't see the slight blush flash across Fleur's cheeks. Genuine compliments are rare in her life, and even more rare are favorable remarks on anything other than her skills with the radios.
That's probably why she didn't actually hit him when he started to fiddle with her controls. She just blocked his access with a quiet "no." She met his eyes to make sure he understood she was very serious about that. Fiddling with the wrong knob at the wrong time could cost them precious information at just the wrong moment.
