S.W.A.K.

[You hear a musical voice cut off from singing and mumble into the recorder.]

Dear Inspector Zenigata.

I... formally apol... apol... [A clearing of throat like saying the word will kill her] apologize for everything, you know, we've been through... and shit. Even though it completely wasn't my fault! That first arrest warrant was CRAP and you know it! And the whole Lupin thing--! [She clearly started to babble, cut herself off and rewound back to that point.] I know you're a pretty good guy... all things said and told, and you at least don't try to kill me or Lupin -- even though that fucking arrogant prick doesn't appreciate it for jack, letting himself get locked up all over -- [Again with the babble, rewind, continue over] and I'm sure you'll be very happy in the marines. [This may or may not sound sarcastic, it's hard to tell. It DOES sound bitter, however.] And they're very lucky to have you.

Oh yeah and that thing we talked about? Getting closer.


ANYWAYS! Someone get up to the control room. I'm taking out a mini-sub on work and only Gokudera, Miranda, Haru, and I know how to drive. Which does a fat lot of good now. So whoever's interested in crash course driving, get up here now. Tsuna, Reborn; don't try to stop me.

How many lollipops we got left anyway?
[Cuts off after some sounds of kicking and packing.]

Well then... I'm back to adult... sorry everyone. God. That was... not something I'm ever going to repeat. Gokudera... I'm sorry. I guess just try to enjoy it while you're stuck. I might be able to get an early cure or something. Orphe... you're... fucking insane. But... Thanks. I can't believe you did that. alksjdalkdsj Gah you're crazy. Jyabura... hum. You know where to find me. Sorry.

Oh and Matt, I have larger bras if you need them. Most of the pain you're feeling is probably from wearing the wrong size.

Lucci... we still on for training tomorrow? And Kalifa in a couple of hours if you have the time I could use some practice. Seems I've been slacking off.

Kaku I didn't really get to say much before and now it just doesn't seem important. I think you know what I was going to say anyway.

Calgara, thanks for fishing with me. ^_^

Usopp... hm... thanks.

The rest of you... Jeez I don't even know what to say so lay it on me. Yes, I talk a lot. Get re-used to it.

On another note my carrots worked. I'm selling them but not for a little while, I need to work on the prototype and others. SDC members, stay away from eating anything in the roped off section unless you want something crazy. Anyone attempting to prank me with my own stuff will be shot.

Yo! This is your co-captain and outwards leader (when dealing with marines) Fujiko Mine! And hello to the rest of you bums on the Grand Line. Welcome to our fleet. Hope you enjoy your stay yadda yadda, some more pleasantries previous captains wrote, whatever... Moving on.

We boast of being one of the most diverse and welcoming crews on the Grand Line. Technically there is a bylaw that we won't turn down anyone who asks to join provided they can give us a good reason AND do not create conflicts with pre-existing members. Yeah. And yes, that includes you Rudy. I can't technically kick you out so enjoy it but one wrong strike and I'm feeding you to a seaking. Swear to God if you're Lupin don't think I won't figure it out and let Jyabura deal with you.

If you see someone you think would be an asset to the ship and wants a crew and/or to be picked up, let the navigator (me until I teach someone else how to drive this) know and we'll head over to rescue and/or pick them up. No, I will not force anyone to join but you're welcome to kidnap/rescue people who are being stubborn. (Why yes Miss short-hair who hates Ranma with unbridled passion, that is you.)

( Note to crew members, others can read, I don't give a damn )

( Sub stuff )

( Vongola stuff )

If I forgot you, you have questions, or whatever, let me know. We're thinking of renovating some of the rooms and painting the sub yellow. So now is a good time to decide if you want to do something. We will also be going after illegal slavers soon. And around the 25th we'll be going to the Lavinrac Island. You don't HAVE to participate but if you want money, you probably should. Or if you find carnival events fun. Whatever.

Attention Vongola and SDC (and anyone else who gives a damn) I'm docking the sub at the nearest island. I've got some business to conduct. No one else needs to come (if you want to, you can ask but I might say no.) Killua, Gon, and Ipin still won't be back for awhile but head count of who's on the sub right now.

Silver
Toboe
Orphe
Jyabura
Rosette
Elphaba
Kiba

... Wait seriously. Is that it? Califa, Star-fish girl, Poland, you three still here? Who am I missing?

Continuing on that note, how many centipedes do we have here? I'd like to get them back to Lal as soon as possible. And no one shoot them. Lal, I'm going on the island, no one will hurt them (I think) but I'm not going to try to keep them from escaping to the island. Just a head's up.

Also. Is anyone interested in buying some security cameras for their ship? Reasonable prices I swear~


Jyabura if I'm not back by sundown, come find me.
