Suzumiya Haruhi. Since I was captured, I have been attempting to negotiate my release, but you've now forced me to use my trump card. As I'm sure you suspected, I have secret knowledge that you would value greatly. The pretense of Lunar Fever has only been a ruse intended to hide that. While I'm now willing to give up some of my secrets, I won't do it as long as I'm in this cell. If you want to know the answers to the unanswered questions which brought you to sea, you'll have to sneak me out of here first.

WHO: Arthur Kirkland/England & Aisling
WHAT: Arthur is unaffected by the current peculiar turn of events and is rather wishing he was out on one of the ships when Aisling comes across him
WHEN: Some time on the 22nd of September
WHERE: The beach
WARNINGS: None

( Drink up, me hearties, yo ho. )

Noble sailors, I've an offer
A bargain you'll find fair and fair,
It concerns a piece of  silver
And the course which drew us here.

A dead man's labors scattered widely
Hold the secrets which we seek
Already many of us slyly
Have stumbled on at least one piece.

But this puzzle that we ponder
Holds another trouble; see--
For we each would tear asunder
Any man who grasps this key.<

No one ship could bear the weight of
All here who sail 'neath the black
Nor could any of us make off
From all the others' fierce attack.

Brothers hear then my solution
We must call all hands on deck
Our captains must through conspiration
Divine the sextant’s secret bed.

As for the last leg of our voyage
I suspect there’s room for all
After we clear the battle’s carnage
From out the Conquest’s spacious hull.

On the far side of this island
Gather Captains, Masters, Mates
Chart a course and then in silence
We shall o’erthrow our fate.

Yeah, okay, that was a real riot. [Sarcasm.]

Has anyone heard from Richard Castle since, uh, the pirate thing? Sheska, you haven't seen him come by the apartment, right?

THAT WAS SO COOL. Sailing on the seas with my Captain and my crew and having adventures again... it was almost like being home for a little while, to tell you the truth, even if'n I didn't remember it.

Oh, my fair Commodore Shepard, are we on the same side again? ♥

I trust the island has righted itself?

Hey, anyone seen Derek? The angry-looking dude who's always in leather?

I need to talk to him, and I can't find him anywhere.

Like. Anywhere.
