Sushie: Still seems like a finfull that one.

Sashimie: Oh really, I couldn't tell. It's pretty exhausting between me and my husband, but I wouldn't trade it for the world.

Sushie: That's what I like ta hear.

Sashimie: Honestly I'm kind of jealous. You had to raise me all on your own, I bet I was just as bad as my own child right?

Sushie: No no, you and her were nothin alike. You were much worse than her at her age right now.

Sashimie: It's times like this I wish I got to meet my father. He died before I was born so I never got to know him.

Shiver: Ay. Your father was an incredible fish he was. The greatest Cheep Cheep a woman could dream of havin. He wasn't the handsomest, but he had the wealth, charm, and prowess ta back it up. The luxuries of bein' a pirate I tell ye. 

Sashimie: pondering Tell me more.

Sushie: What?

Sashimie: Throughout my life you've told me my father was a pirate, just like you were, but you've never told me more than that. I want to know how you two met, why you became a pirate, how great my father was when you met him.

Sushie: sighs Had yee told me that years ago, I'd have givin you the cold shoulder. But after the adventure I went on with those others to save the Mushroom Kingdom, I think ye've earned the right to hear it. Please. Have a seat.

Sashimie: I've got a couple of hours to kill before Shiver starts crying again. I'm all ears. sits down

Sushie: Good. sits down So then, let me tell you about a tale 40 years in the makin. The legend of the Great Captain Sushie, and her adventures on the high seas.
