*Looks about and gets closer to Mr. John so as the conversation would be private.*
"Mark Mr. Cubby off on the List. I know he's in town, that's good enough."

*as cubby walked the streets of the small town he reminiced of home and the stores he used to visit... rather ill reputed store they were but he was young so give us a break... anyway, as he strolled flirting with everythin with two legs and a skirt he realized that being in uniform doesn't help at all in port confused *
stupid british royals and unattractive uniforms, but at least we don't get the floggings and picklings as much as them.
*cubby suddenly felt a strange ringing in his ears like a high bosuns pipe and a burnign sensation as if people were talking about him and decided that if it wasn't crew then he had already outstayed the welcome and maybe had been recognized, so it was best to return to the ship and see when provisions were needed for the ordering*
I wonder if we could put this on the royal account as we are nav... ohh hello miss lovely day isn't it? yes yes but, oh come on marriage is such a petty thing... oh THAt is your husband... umm, nice to meet you sir you have a lovely wife, i was just saying hello...?_? no no not at all, a drink, well i should be heading back to the sh... well that is a good point, free mead is hard to come by, i'll come jus for a minute.
*cubby then had cold mead! and was fast freinds with this unlikely stranger, after fifteen minutes it became clear this man was not a good one to be speaking to at moment and cubby decided to get back and check in*
well i really must be going, yes yes TONIGHT if i see you again we shall sing and dance and be merry, but until then keep your sister free, aye! just a joke 3nodding
*then cubby got quickly from the pub and quickly made way for the ship so as to not go on another typing rant like this one... once back he reported to captain and john in the military style. on hands and knees whining for forgiveness and beggings of not flogging him.*
well i thought i should be authentic if i was to wear this awful uniform, it is bleeding hot and smelly though i do like the red.
oh yes and mr.John have you need of me?

"Aye, Mr. Cubby. Though, don't bother with the finance side of things unless you are swamped with Purchases. So far, the only finances you seem to have on hand are Ms. Destiny's Food Stores, Officer Ares's Munition Supplies. I will be dealing with the Lady's Wood & Water Stores myself.
Infact, I've a small announcement to make:
As of today, I uphold my previous agreement with Ms. Sparrow over her playing Captain for a week. So hereforth, I am no longer Captain unless it is a matter of utmost importance. If you have anything that needs to be taken up with me, please come find me tomorrow. I'll not be available for the rest of the day. I am to attend Court. If you need to inquire about me, I will be going by the name Captain William Suckling.
So, for the rest of the week, Ms. Sparrow will be addressed as Captain. If you fail to do so, you will be seen flogged."
*Looks to Sparrow*
"Ms. Sparrow, the ship is yours."
*With that, he leaps aboard ship, returns to his Quarters (which Sparrow now has rights to) and dresses in his Royal Naval Attire. He reminises as he puts the outift on. It fits perfectly as it always did, and he looked pretty sharp if he did say so himself. As he returns on deck, he looks ata the Crew.*
"How do I look? I hope well enough. If you need me, I'll be taking up residence at the Local Inn. I'll have no visitors until tomorrow. Gooday to ye, Mates."

*Walking deep within the heart of the port, he comes to the great gates of the Naval Admiralty Outpost. Saluting superior officers as they pass, he enters onto the grounds posing as the Quartermaster of His Majestys Ship Lady Washington, that has "recently been taken aprize and reclaimed under British Comission". Nodding at the Guards at the Main Hall's door, he approaches the Secretary's desk.*
"Good'ay to you Miss. Pardon my asking, but would the Comissioner's Yard Keeper be engaged within? If he's available, I must see him immediately. I have paperwork that he must tend to so as to supply fresh stores and supplys to the Washington. Please inform him that the Washington's Quartermaster is here to report to him. Thank you Miss."
*With a flirtatious smile, he bows and retreats to take a seat on the near wall.*

-Seeing that they had reached port, a small smile grew on her face. Quickly gathering up a few small things, Sparrow raced down and onto the deck. She looked at everyone as they went about, ready to do what they wanted. Spottign the Capn', she rushed over and tugged at his arm slightly.-
"Err..umm..Sir, how long shall we be in port for? Or is that up to me to decide?"

*Having already reached the Admiralty office, he whispers in her ear*
"Sparrow, remember, as long as my alias is Quartermaster Mr. William Suckling, you are not to address me as Captain. If they knew I was here, I'd be hanged.
Now, to answer your question... I originally planned on being in port for a week. Though, now that you've brought it up... Yes, I do believe it is in your decision that your answer lies. Now, be off with ye'. I'll be back by nightfall, Captain Sparrow."
*With a wink and a smile, he pats her on the shoulder and pushes her towards the door.*
"Good Luck, Captain."

Destiny walked around the port town fondly rubbing the hilt of her new blade. Along with purchasing the blade, she had bought a whetstone and some oil, for her daggers and the new sword.
Finally, as night neared, she sauntered into the Local inn, and engaged a room for 1 for the week. She signed her name in the register, and then went up to the room. Locking the door behind her, she slept soundly, with her daggers under her pillow.
Early the next morning, she went down to the dining room, had breakfast, and then went for a stroll down the beach. Finding a piece of driftwood, she sat down and placed the longsword in her lap, and watched the sunrise.
The sun was just begining to peek over the horizon, a soft glow amid the velvety shades of night. Slowly, the blazing sun crested over the sea, filling the sky with brilliant shade of vermillion, crimson, orange, and yellows. The purple clouds became tinged with highlights of gold, reflecting back the sun's rays.
Destiny marveled at the sunrise, with the smell of the sea breeze, she was perfectly content. As the morning went along, she spent the time sharpening up her daggers and her silver blade.
As midmorning passes, she began to wonder if the Captain, alias Suckling, would come to begin her blade training.. after all, he said that they would train on a beach......
