have you ever had a random thought come to your head when you least expect it and you just don’t know what the answer to it would be? but you just can’t stop thinking about it? and you’ve gotta say it to somebody?

stuff like…

I don't know. That might explain the parrots here, then. Have you ever seen or heard them on Elah? They know every swear word in the book.

[They're little shits (literally) that also call you a little bitch.]

[verboaten]

So do most sailors. Good chance they picked up their extended vocabulary by listening to some more loud-mouthed seadogs.

[Granted, Eizen hasn't actually run into these parrots himself, so this is purely a guess. It'd make sense though: sailors have parrots, parrot picks up some particularly foul language from one, parrot makes more parrots, parrot passes down language.]

Probably picked up on their attitudes on top of that.

[Zack laughs.]

That sure would make sense, yeah.

You're not the loud-mouthed kind of seadog, Eizen? Come on, man. Give me a swear word or two. What do pirates in your world say?

[verboaten]

[That gets a grin out of Eizen.]

I just like to let my fists do that sort of talking instead of my mouth.

[Fuck doesn't have the same level of oomph as a punch to the throat, just saying.]

It's not all that different from here. Gratuitous swearing, lewd commentary and particular phrases like 'scurvy beard-splitting bastard', 'by Amenoch's barnacled balls' and such.

[activatingcombatmode]

Okay, okay. I can't argue with that.

[That's so valid. A good punch to the face is much louder than words.]

Straight out of the pirate handbook, then? That's too good.

[verboaten]

Aye, straight out of the handbook. The biggest difference here has just been some of the vernacular.

[Other than that? A pirate's a pirate no matter the world, it looks like.]

[activatingcombatmode]

Too fun. Well, teach me your favourite pirate insult, I need to brush up.

[verboaten]

I suppose I can pass along a couple. You want phrases or whole sentences or both?
