"I don't like the sound of this."
Capsize, from beside me voices her words quietly in my ear while we all face the large and imposing nether portal in the Priests front garden. The usual evil, and intense feeling of dread seems to pulse out of it, along with the purple tendrils that swirl around and out of it.
"Don't worry about it," I whisper back, before taking her hand and squeezing it reassuringly, "we'll be back in no time and you can teach me how to bloody dance."
This sets a smile on Capsizes face once more, before she recites to me in an extremely posh and bored tone, "Dancing is much like fighting, two people locked in an series of steps and poses. The only difference is the fact the cost of a wrong step is bruised toes and more then a bit of battered pride."
I raise an eyebrow and quirk my lips, but look on questioningly even so.
"A local man in Ianarea considered himself... what do ye call it...." Capsize hums for a moment, "a higher class then the rest of the sailors and pirates. He deemed the only way to teach us dancing was to make a reference to fighting." She snorts, "As if that helped making the likes of me brother interested."
I laugh and from behind me I can hear Redbeard snort disdainfully.
"Creepy bastard he was if ye ask me."
"The only reason you never liked him was because he tried to stop you fighting." Capsize throws at her brother, "Young Mr.Delaney could you kindly leave that awful instrument at my front door from now on and I request you shave that awful stubble before the dance next weekend. You will never tempt a woman with such attire."
I laugh but a thought springs to mind.
"Young Mr.Delaney?" I comment as Sonja starts nattering down her earpiece to try get Tom to hurry the hell up, or else she would come and drag him by the ear to the nether portal herself.
"Ye didn't think his name was actually Redbeard....Did ye?" Capsize laughs but seeing me force a smile makes her laugh more.
"We did actually." Tucker throws over his shoulder and he mines at an obsidian block on the outer edge of portal. He had mentioned something about "quick escape" before starting.
"Nah, nah. I figured it better other ships didn't realize straight off that we were in the family business. Makes you a high value target." Redbeard explains, shrugging and scratching his chin thoughtfully, "Never figured out why though."
