Miss Fortune glanced up, a coy smile creeping across her expression. Humph. Not even a 'please' or 'it would be my honor.' Well, what did you expect from a man like Gangplank?'Of course.' she called back.
The Bounty Hunter scooted her chair back and threw on her hat. No doubt the Saltwater Scourge wanted her to cave in, but her instincts told her to hold firm. If this deal went through, the Bilgewater a month from now could possibly be unrecognizable. And Sarah Fortune wasn't about to let that happen.
With her jaw set firm, Miss Fortune followed Gangplank out the door.

Huh, so those two wanna have a secret lil' talk huh? Maybe someone should go keep watch so they don't end up shootin' each other, huh guys?
Fizz quickly lifts his trident up and climbs out of a nearby window. As much fun as the rest of then folks in the room were, he wanted to know what was going on between Fortune and Gangplank. They were the "bigshots" of Bilgewater, and he didn't want exactly for them to kill each other for a disagreement. Activating the enchantment in his trident, he sticks it into the side of the ship, climbing up towards the deck into hearing range of the two champions, while staying away from view unless they were to take a look at the hull itself of the ship.

The cool night air was a relief for the stuffy cabin that he had been in. The pirate stretched his body and greeted the night. He reached into his pocket, pulling out a cigar that he lit and took a drag on.
He heard Fortunes foot steps behind him, signalling that she had followed him. He turned to face her, smoke billowing from his nose.
'Ere we be' again." he said with a chuckle. He leaned against the deck rail, staring out into the city. " Ye' know I be' against ta' Institute, sayin' me way of life not' be right. But I be makin' this deal fer' her" he said, motioning to Bilgewater.
"We ain't high on thar' list of priorities, and we will be high n' dry when ta' sharks come fer' us.

The Bounty Hunter looked around the deck; there seemed to be no living soul besides herself and Gangplank. She strutted to the rail and leaned her back against it, looking at Gangplank next to her. She shook her head, the wind blowing her fiery hair into a frenzy.
'I understand that.' Miss Fortune replied curtly, disregarding Gangplank's first comment; it would not be good of her to get distracted from the urgent task at hand.
'Fortune doesn't favor fools, however.' the Bounty Hunter sighed, tapping a finger on the rail. 'And if we're going to abide and accept the offer--the joke's surely on us. Don't jump ship until you're sure the waters are a safer bet.' she cautioned.

He remained silent for a moment watching the city while puffing on his cigar.
"I not be' above doin' dirty things fer' me own good. It comes with bein' a pirate. But I never be sellin' out me home fer' it.
He turned back to Fortune. Her silhouette illuminated by the light of the moon, though her red locks were still visible. "We both be wantin' what's best fer Bilgewater, so tell me this Fortune. Do you disagree cause you think I be wrong, or because ye' be wantin' to spite me?"

Fizz hangs off from the Trident, sticking out from the side of the ship as he listens to the conversation upon the deck. They sure were talking in an oddly tender fashion for sworn enemies. If this went on, he'd have to go and interrupt them before they go any further. Landdwellers and their odd ways.
Looking down at the water, he notices Chomper, grinning at the shark. He makes a couple of odd motions with his hands, giving a silent note to the shark to go hunting for some food. The shark leaps out of the water suddenly, in clear view of those on the deck, before crashing into the water again to go and hunt.
Bloody showoff. Fizz thinks to himself, turning his attention up towards the deck again.
Post by The Bounty Hunter on Mar 9, 2014 16:32:21 GMT -5
Miss Fortune swerved around as Chomper made his brief appearance. She frowned. It must be impatient, waiting for his trickster of an owner to come back. Her eyes wandered across the deck before she settled them back on Gangplank.
'Please,' she simpered, brushing her hair to the side so they would catch the dying light. 'I can spite you in much better ways. Have you seen the look in Swain's eyes? Even off the field, he is calculating...calculating. Noxians are bred for supremacy. I've never turned in a friendly, peaceful Noxian before...hell, I had to shoot down a lot more than I arrested when it came to them.'
The Bounty Hunter paused, looking for Gangplank's reaction. 'I don't....trust them.' she managed. 'Some may laugh at that, but I trust my intuition more than some elegant words on parchment.'

Gangplank gave a hearty laugh as the shark dove past him on the deck. It was followed by an exhausted sigh as he turned back to face the city. The embers of his cigar floated into the night sky, glowing red before fluttering away on the wind. He mulled over her words, weighing the options of his decisions.
His cigar eventually burned down to its end. He threw the end off the dock, a faint hiss escaping from it as it hit the water. "Alright Fortune, I be callin' this deal off, but only if ye agree to this." He turned back to the bounty hunter. "You and me, we be havin' a talk about this city. Bilgewater be left in tah' dust when it comes to the other cities fer' to long. And I be sure ye be wantin' to change that as much as I be wantin' to."
He extended a hand towards her. "We still be havin' our animosity, but I be puttin' that aside fer me' home. Let us be tah' ones to make this place great again."

Fizz scoffs, shaking his head. Weren't they being just plain adorable, for Bilgewaterians at least. He grabs hold of the edge of the deck and pulls the trident from the side of the ship. Hopefully, Gangplank wouldn't notice the slight damage it had left behind. He then deftly climbs up to the deck and a bit more carefully positions the Trident to stand on it's own without cutting into anything, and balances atop it.
Ya know, if I didn't know how much ya two don't like each other, I'd swear you two were gonna kiss or somethin'.
He grins his usual playful grin, looking at the two from a safe distance.
Then again, who knows if that weren't gonna be the case. You humans are so weird, it's hard to tell if ye're gonna "kiss and make up", as some say, or stab each other.
He then looks straight at Fortune.
Well, you gonna shake his hand or not o' Bounty Hunter?

Miss Fortune whirled around, momentarily taken aback. But as Fizz spoke, she regained her composure, glaring at the Tidal Trickster. She tossed her hair back as Fizz finished. 'I was, before you so rudely interrupted.' she lied, huffing.
Quickly, the Bounty Hunter extended her hand and shook Gangplank's calloused hand firmly, giving him a quick wink.
'I'm fine with the suggestion to talk about the city's future, you scurvy dog. Let's just hope you're still alive after Noxus finds out you're rejecting their offer.'
She let out a wild laugh before letting go of his hand. 'But really, you made the right choice. Fizz can vouch for that.'

Gangplank gave a sarcastic laugh at Fizz. "Kissin' Fortune? Har! Ye take me fer' teh other morons that be thinkin' with thar rodgers? I be havin' some standards."
He shook her hand with a strong grip. Just because he was agreeing with her didn't mean he was going to let her think she had one. This city was his and he would never give it up.
"Ye not be worryin' yer red locks off about Noxus. This be just an idea, nothin' official er concrete. Sides, I doubt we' be top on thar' list of plans"
Post by The Tidal Trickster on Apr 4, 2014 13:11:19 GMT -5
'Ey, you never know with you landdwellers. You guys ain't exactly... normal. Always sayin' one thing, doin' another.
Fizz laughs at the two, sitting balanced atop the trident. He glances at Gangplank quickly, before turning back to Fortune, looking a bit quizzical, showing a sharp, toothy grin.
Now why would I vouch for that? I never took a side in this matter, just told what I saw. The deal coulda been good, or coulda been bad. It didn't sound like the kinda thing Bilgewater does though.
He then hops off the trident and grabs it, spinning it around a couple of rounds before holding it against his shoulder.
And if Noxus were to come a-knockin', we always got Chomper. You guys do remember what he does to ships, don't ya?

'Hush, you slimy barnacle.' Miss Fortune mock snapped at Fizz, grimacing at her half-arsed insult. Inside, however, the Bounty Hunter was relieved. She had steered Bilgewater in what was hopefully the right decision
Now it was time to get the other landlubbers to follow suit and agree with their choice. Miss Fortune cocked her head at the door.
'I suppose we better break the news to those chumps,' she simpered, giving Gangplank a coy look. 'Nautlius won't be happy. I can't wait to see the look on his face when he. .oh..behind the helmet anyway.'
Sarah Fortune let out another wild laugh. 'Step to,' she cried and headed back indoors.

"Slimy barnacle"? I guess ol' Fortune's insults are runnin' dryer than the bottom of the rum barrel of the nearest tavern. Or this ship at that matter... since we left yer crew down there without supervision, eh Planky?
Fizz shakes his head at Fortune's laughter, his ears swinging around along with the movement. The Bounty Hunter's laughter was such a shrill on his aquatic hearing. Maybe she'd be a good target for the next trick he had in mind? Maybe.
He quickly leaps on his trident again, using it to vault himself over the railing and into the water. Moving so much easier in water, though air had it's own little tricks. He quickly motions over to Chomper, who launches him up into the air again high enough for the small Trickster to grab onto the edge of the window leading back to the room where he had left the crew and Nautilus. That big bulk was such a hassle, always serious and apathetic, looking for those who hurt him. Bah, no fun.

The pirate king laughed. "Yar' I doubt even me' seadogs coulda' drink dis' ship dry! Come me boyo! let's get back to tah celebration!" he said to Fizz, following Miss Fortune back below deck.
