Chapter Five (w00t!)

Linae is now telling us HER side of the story. Fun, ya?

Linae: Hmm, let me think for a moment. Ahh, yes... We were at the table...

Hoban: -crosses arms-

Me: -sigh- Hoban...

Hoban: -shakes head- No.

Me: Say your lines, Hoban.

Hoban: Nope.

Me: Say your lines.

Hoban: Uh-uh.

Me: Say your--

Hoban: Nope.

Me: Say--

Hoban: No!

Me: Just say--

Hoban: NO.

Me: SAY YOUR DAMN LINES, HOBAN! SAY YOUR DAMN FUCKING LINES!

Hoban: FINE! Let'ssseeyoulaughwhenIsailyouintoastorm. THERE! -walks off angrily-

So then, after Hoban uttered his faithful hex-

Me: FOR GOD'S SAKE I KNOW! You ate, and ate, and--

King Skarl: FOOOD! WHERE? -sniffs air-

Tormund: -throws a brick at Skarl-

Well, I left the gallery and went back to my cabin...

Me: Did you speak to anyone before that?

Did I?

Me: Did you?

Oh yes, that's right... I did. Anshu and I were discussing how awful the food's been lately--

Bonju: WHAT? My food is WONDERFUL! MY MOMMY SAID SO!

Linae: Uh-huh, and das' why yo mama DEAD.

Bonju: But...but... -runs off crying like a girl-

Anyway...that anchovy casserole really did a number on my--

Me: Whoa! More than enough information...

Linae: -fart-

Me: (sarcastic) Yeah, that's nice...

Linae: -continues farting-

Me: Can we just--

Linae: -FAAARRRRT-

Me: Ugh...-sprays Lysol- Can we PLEASE just--

Linae: I just sharted! D:

Me: You what?

Linae: I sharted.

Me: Aw, HELL no... That is just...is just NASTY. Period! -walks out spraying Lysol-

Linae: o.o... -toot-

Me: Moving on...

Anyhow, after briefly speaking with Anshu, I settled in for a relaxing game of Kou-Jong. While setting up, though, I noticed that my "Lost Desert Sunset" tile was missing. I couldn't find it in my cabin, so I went on deck...

Me: -snores-

I found my tile lying under a crate, but as I tried to retrieve it...I overheard Anshu and Hoban arguing. I couldn't tell what they were saying, exactly, but I'm certain it was them.

Me: -head falls into bucket of rainwater- ASDFGHJKOLK! O.O -cough- Huh?

Linae: -still rambling on- That's when the captain yelled for all hands on deck, and I...

Me: -drifts back off to sleep-

That left no time for arguing. Hoban went up to the wheel and Anshu headed below deck, presumably to set up the medical supplies in case anyone got hurt.

Me: -twitch- -fights monster aliens in my dreams-

I spent most of the storm helping out. Even though Hoban had gotten us into that mess, we'd only get out of it by working together as a team. Then, just before the storm ended, I went below deck to help Anshu repair a leak.

Anshu: -misses nail and hammers his hand-

-CRACK-

Anshu: O.O...

Linae: Anshu...?

Anshu: OH GOD HOLY SH& MOTHER F-(violent swearing)

Me: -stirrs- -rubs eyes- Eh...? Oh, erm, finished?

Linae: -nod-

Me: Do you recall seeing Hoban at all during the storm?

I sure do. There were two occasions when I had to work side-by-side with him during the storm. Hopefully his rotten luck didn't rub off on me too much...

Hoban: -rubs his hand all over her face- RUB RUB RUB! HAHAHAHA! YOU'RE SCREWED NOW, BITCH! -runs off-

Me: I...see... That should be all, then. Thank you for your cooperation... if you're even listening.

Linae: HOBAN, YOU LITTLE PIECE OF--(sailor cussing) -runs after him-

...o.o Le End of chapter four.
