Malik only chuckled lightly, but when thier ships crashed, he took defensive measure. and all of the sudden crews of both sides sprang into being nad began fighting amid ships, while Malik was throwing this guys overboard and slaying those that dared challenge him.
"Ye'll never take me! or me treasure!"

He blinked. Hey they had a crew all of a sudden! That was nifty wasn't it? "The Wings of the Sea always win!" Pointing his own sword then hopping over from one ship to the other, weaving his way through what he didn't know to be illusions, Zykariel ever at his side, as they instantly made thier way to Malik. Heh, two on one, this would be easy. "Arrh...let the swords do the talking, no one can trust the word of a captain such as yourself. That treasure will be ours!"
And Piper's attention turned to Keely and she raised hands that were tied together a the wrists. "Little help?" Waiting for Keely to indeed untie the loose, but rather intricate and effective little knot and rope job the boys had done. Wasn't this all very very cute? Indeed it was. Then a look to Mailk and a mental poke to him. "No killing dear."
"Yes, surface elves fall in love, they lavish affection...you have been watching Piper right?" Because Gods knew that woman was overly affectionate to various things when she felt the urge. Or at least Sevilin thought so. "Though they more of bond before they proclaim such things, and bonds form without knowledge really. It's all a complicated mess really."

Where had the crew come from? Watching as his orders were followed by elves that hadn't been there before. But he was right behind Malikhai, boarding the other ship and pointing his sword at Malik as well. Two against one, fair odds in his opinion.
"Arr! Ye'll eat your words, ye evil excuse for a pirate, now fight!" Besides it was their treasure first and first is what mattered. He wasn't going to strike Malik first though, let Malikhai do that, Malik still intimidated him even though he was deeply rooted in the game now and would no doubt be in the fray in a few more moments.
"Yes, yes I have." And she'd seen quite a few things from her in the time before the wedding, during and even after. It was all so very messed up indeed. Surface elves loved, drow didn't. it was just that simple. "Bond?" that was even worse. "What am I going to do?" she wailed shaking her head. "I can't have a surface elf bonded to me..."

"ye'll find me sword is sharper than me tongue, naive!"
and he crossed swords with his son, moving slow enough so they coudl keep up, but quick enough to get into the spirit and keep them on thier toes, fending them both off.
a slight grin at Piper.
"and it seems yer oracle is gettin away from you, laddies!"

Indeed, boys taking to crossing swords with Malikhai's father, though there were subtle hand gestures being given between the two that got them to work in coordination to make things go in thier advantage. Though they were using height to thier advantage, Malikhai ducking his under father's legs to pop up around the back of him. Ha, one at the back, one at the front. It was a good strategy in his opinion. Though he must of been getting better at seeing becuse he could follow Malik's moves this time, and daddy didn't play down for anyone, he was always at his best.
Though yes, mentioning of mother or more pointedly the oracle escaping got his attention and he got that whiny tone. "Keeeellly! You know you're not 'sposed to let that happen! That's an order!" Back to his father and sword slinging...hmm..how to knock his boots out from under him...and steal them at that too.
And Piper merely gave a chuckle as Keely merely picked up a 'sword' or rather an object mimicked as one and pointed it at her. "Oh so you're on thier side are you. Very well then." Grabbing her own sword of sorts. "Have at me!" Might as well get into the spirit, thus taking to crossing swords with Keely.
"Why are you worrying about this?" Idly putting an arm around her, fingers lightly playing with her hair as they usually did. Either played with her hair or traced various nondescript patterns on her skin. He was all about structure wasn't he? Yes, yes he was.
"Bonds work on receptive levels. Non recptive bonds merely die out over time or they more or less just irritate the other." He had studied them a lot in fact, having to be able to break them should he find the need to. "Constant mental negativity never lasts long."

He did indeed cross swords with Malik, working with Malikhai to attack from both sides. Zykariel was quick on his feet and blocked and parried. He saw an opening on Malik's side and went to go for it then stopped himself, bringing his sword back and knocking it against Malik's. "Arr going to have to do better than that scalawag! That treasure be ours."
The announcement that the oracle was escaping caught his attention as well but he knew better than to turn around. Malikhai had that well in hand. "Don't let her go Keely! Or it's the plank for ye wortheless wench."
"Because I've never had to deal with this before? I don't know what to do and it worries me. Love and touchy feely emotions always have..." She sighed and tried to relax though it was much easier with his fingers convincing her body it was a good idea. "So it will just die out if I don't do anything to further it." A brief pause. "I can do that." Then seh smiled sheepishly. "I guess I am overreacting a bit. It just worried me when I heard the word 'love' and knwoing that Arthur was calling me that in another language..." But Sevilin had calmd her fears with his knowledge of bonds. She would be just fine. "So for now I'll just pretend I don't know what it means and see if he says anything. If he does, I'll figure out what to do when that time comes. No sense stressing over it now right?"

It didn't take much to hold Rusty down and force the needle into his bicep. He was week, and Moonstone and his brother were still fresh in the day, not that they woudl have had much to tire them out physically anyway.
"There. You'll find strength again in a few hours. And if you hadn't comeplained.." he got a look from Meilikki. "Then maybe it wouldn't have been so difficult."
Aella watched as Onyx left to hit the shower. She was curious why he seemed to take so many lately. But at the moment, she let it drop and shrugged, helping the others to clean up.
Warren simply smiled with the whole greeting and being pulled inside. He looked at Eliot. "Well, it looks like we caught them when they were busy." He looked around the entrance hall and placed his hand on his hip. "Well, it feels lighter in here than it used to. Kids do that I guess."

"I'll be sendin both ye to Davy Jones!"

Hm, he was putting up a rather good fight. And they weren't going to win this way, daddy was just too big and too good at this. Hm, plan be then. Hey it wasn't a cheap shot if you were clearly at a disadvantage. Thus his plan? Well that little wooden sword would get drawn back and all the force his little body could muster would go into a whack against the back of daddy's knees. He was old enough to know what happened when you whacked the back of somebody's knees at least.
Where the boys were ardantly going at each other, Keely and her were more of just taking casual swings and giggling, watching the boys. Oh it was so cute really. And when Malik played with the boys he usually did take strides to make the game as fun as possible too. Yes he was a good father indeed, indulging the games and making them better, but not overdoing them. Hm...she'd never be able to get those boys down to reverie tonight after them being all excited.
"Right." He was smart enough to know not to give that that conversation anymore leeway than it had alredy. Hell, he didn't want to be involved with any of her personal relationships outside of the ones that they shared. And that all pretty much came down to Zykariel, occassional sex, and being a comfort source from negativity from time to time. And she didn't even really want anything to do with it all, it was obligation. Though he didn't fault her on that nor use it against her. "Is that all that was on your mind from earlier or is there more?" Because he had his own worries about things too.

"Bite your tongue before I be ridding you of it with my sword, knave!" Usual response when taunting in a fight such as this. He and Malikhai taunted each other often after all, being that they switched off being the evil pirate. Unless they had someone else to be it like Mr. Malik or Mr. Arthur.
His purple eyes widened and he quickly sidestepped just in case as the sword came down hard against the back of Malik's knees. Had Khai really just hit his father? Zykariel wasn't sure what to do. What if Malik got upset? What if Khai got into trouble? Maybe he should go over there and pretend like he had done it... He tried to think for a moment. Would daddy be upset if he got hit? Maybe not in a game though...
Thus watching Malik for a moment before looking back at Keely and Piper. "Keeellyyy! You're s'posed to trap her again. Tie her back up. Quickly so we can get the treasure!" A shake of his head in disgust. Girls, did they know how to play pirates? Obviously wenches knew only about cards and rum.
Well her mind was appeased now and as a result she laid back down, conforming to Sevilin's side with her own much smaller form. "No, I think that's all that's bothering me just now. Why? Would you like me to solicit more advice from you?" What was he asking that question for? Did he not want to listen to her problems or maybe he just found them too trivial to bother with. And then again maybe she was reading too much into his question. "Would you prefer I left you be to get some reverie?" she asked softly, attempting to understand the motive behind that particular question.

Malik's knees buckled, and he fell down too his knees and one hand. that stung a bit. but he just puched his son back with his sword to sword.
"Argh! ye'll pay for that!"
And leaned back on his knees, and kept at them, now being more at thier own height and giving himself a mobility handicap.
"I will not see that treasure go to yer rum drinking crew to be flitted away on drink and cards!"

Whoo! That was a satisfying feeling now wasn't it? Yes, yes it was indeed a very fine feeling, a nice little ego boost for the boy. Of course he had never thought of himself getting in trouble, because hey it was part of the game. Though then he fell back himself at the unexpected pressue and push on his sword from his father's. Hm, had to think one step ahead.
"That's wench stuff." Getting himself back up as he was halfway fending off sword blows from his father. And he looked to Zykariel. "We're not winning! Plan B! Which meant of course that the sword was dropped and it was time to jump dad to bring him down. Hey a good old fashioned dog pile and what not.
Piper looked to Keely who was only trying not to burst into laughs. "You're going to betray me? Oh but I thought you were on my side?" Though she did sideglance the second servant who was standing in the doorway of the nursery looking half amused and half confused. A hand on Keely's shoulder then. "Go see dear?" Then 'pushing her off the side of the ship and into the water'. Thusly holding her sword up in triumph for a moment. "Ha! Oracle I may be, but no fragile lass am I. Ye underestimated me, by dashing captians."
Okay, she was definately defensive about that question wasn't she? He bit his tongue a moment to perhaps think of he right thing and not give the wrong answer and upset her on some level. "Just...thought you may of needed to get some other things off your chest and needed someone to vent to..." Was that the answer he wanted? Not really but he was going with it. It worked. Besides, if she didn't mention anything in the area of his own thinking, then there was no need to worry, right? Right.
"You're always pleasant after a rant." Giving her somewhat of a smirky lopsided grin. Then a shake of his head. "No, I'm fine. You know me, I like to deprive myself of things on various levels."

Zykariel stuck out his tongue in disgust. That was wench stuff. "That's our loot to do with what we will and it be none of yer concern." But the moment Malikhai went down, Zykariel went into action. His first impulse was to protect his friend and irritate his captor. So not even dropping his sword, he too leaped on Malik, about the same time Malikhai did.
Piper's words called his attention and he held tightly to Malik's tunic and called out to Khai who was somehwere in the massive pile of squrming bodies. "Arr the oracle be escaping!" Get 'er men!" Where was his invisible crew when he needed them anyway?
She tilted her head up a bit to glance up at him and then chuckled and snuggled deeper against him. "Nope, I think that's it." A long winded sigh and she suddenly lifted up on her elbow, slanting him a look as a sudden thought occurred to her. Deprive himself...of certain things like comfort and confiding. "Is there a reason you're trying to get me to spill all Sevilin?" Her eyes narrowed an she poked his chest. "Like to keep from spilling your own? Hmm?" She sat up fully and holding the sheet to her chest, crossed her arms, scrutinizing him closely. The proof was always in his eyes and sure enough the guilty glint that meant she'd hit the nail on the head. "I knew there was something going on with you, your eyes give you away every time. What is it?"

Malik got buried under both kids, and Zykariel's sword wacked him none too few times. but hey, all in good fun for the kiddies, so malik fought nad pushed them off and got tackled back on and then squirmed out and back down and such for a good ten minutes.
"Alright, alright! I give, I give!"
hey, they were the good guys, they can't lose. nto to mention he did catch Piper's look and wondered what was going on with that one as well.

Good old physical squirming and pushing and pulling to get whomever was bigger than you. If you kept it up long enough you would win. Or at least that's what his childish logic told him. But then it seemed that they were going to win as Malik settled down and proclaimed surrender. By this time, Malikhai was sitting on his father's back as he was on the floor, or ship deck rather, and quite convinced that he had Zykariel had the upper hand in all aspects. "You give? Say we win and the treasure is ours."
She merely giggled slightly at Zykariel's little given directions...but she was the oracle and could make up her own rules couldn't she. "As the orcale, I would just like you to know that each time you try to confine me, I'm just going to escape." Giving a little nod at that. Watching fondly as Malik went to fighting for the boys a bit before giving in to them and letting them get to have thier victory. Wasn't that adorable. "Oh how sweet..." Saying it just because she could.
Very well then, and it looked like she was going to let things lie as they were. But he wasn't so lucky now was he? Nope. A shake of his head. "No, no reason. Maybe I just don't want to face a screaming session of yours after you bottle it up for a few hours and then need to take it out on someone." It was no strange behavior for her after all.
Ah crap he had crossed some line or something as she went about sitting up and getting that tone with him. He blinked once at her and one hand came up to rub over his eyes in someone subconcious manner of her mentioning as if trying to erase whatever she had precieved in them. He sat up, brushing a hand through his hair. "It's nothing really...just been thinking about Zykariel a bit and what not." Leaning back against the headboard of the bed. "I'm allowed to do that without reason to it..."
