So, as a captain, can Jack perform weddings?

>>39631312
Why Anon? are you trying to suggest he start pairing people off?

>>39631312
I thought about it and There's no reason he can't because it would just be his word vs whoevers word anyway

writing continues!

It's a common misconception that ship captains could and would do this without credentials that allowed them to, though in those cases they don't officiate marriages in the capacity of the vessel's captain.

That said, I would be greatly amused by the ensuing chaos if the girls ever heard of this.

>>39631555
The only real choice is for the captain to marry his ship.

>>39631555

Actually, while you're right in most cases, Japan allows captains to officiate marriage

>>39631416

Didn't the two girls still have to marry, since the priest was just a crazy guy disguised as an old man?

Yargh, you don't have the time to think about these things. These are things that are best left to the lackies.
"Y'know what, I'll let someone else handle it."
"Figures." Cody tosses his cig over the side of the ship.
"I think we should ask Charlotte, we found them in her country." Yuuki crosses her arms.
"Sounds like a fine idea." You slowly bank the ship to make a landing near the caravan. You need to check in with them before they get worried.
--
"WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!?"
The blonde-haired foxgirl holds onto one of your arms, while a chestnut-haired princess holds on to your other.
"Seriously!" She yells, "You JUMPED from one ship onto another in mid-air!"
"And you were on a ship surrounded by soldiers, what would you have done if they captured you!?"

"Lasses.." You sigh, "It's just boarding another vessel, it's fine."
This makes them look even more shocked.
"You've DONE THIS BEFORE!?"
"So often that you have a NAME for it!?"

Yargh.
"Charlotte! Aye need a question from yars!"
She walks over while keeping a bemused smile on her face from the two that are clinging to your appendages.
"Charlotte, We have soldiers-turned-balls in the hold of the ship. They're in yer country after all."
She sighs, "Tuile, go fetch your knights. Have them escort the prisoners to our castle. I think the caravan is going to head there to stay the night anyway."
"Okay but.." Tuile hesitates, "That depends on what Jack wants to do."
Yeah, what are you going to do now?

>Not going with the caravan, Now that all the civilians are offloaded, and you have a war-ready ship,you can take a team and go investigate that kingdom more thoroughly.
>Not going with them, you're going back to your own home with your own crew and catland can go to hell.
>Not going with them, there's something funny about all this that you need to spend time investigating.
>Go with them, you think you've done enough for one day.
>Keep an eye on them until they get to Gallete, you'll decide there.
>Other?

And now I drive home, see you in an hour or so!

They seem to not realise what being a pirate entails do they?

>>39631555
Poor, poor Cody is his princess hears about this.

So should we change the name of our ship, to something more fitting?

>Keep an eye on them until they get to Gallete, you'll decide there.

Writing!

If you want to name this light craft you've acquired, you can think of some names.

>>39633775
Hm, something related to dreams or freedom seems appropriate...
How about Aspiration?

>>39633775
How about "Took yar Shit" or alternatively "Fuck the Bears"

>>39634020
It's our first ship!
Surely it should have a good name?

>>39633775
The Invincible.
Blue Rose.
Skyfish. Or maybe The Snail
The Red Fox.

>>39634205
Alright how bout this then "Pedicabo Omnes Ursines"

>>39634347
Why care so much about the bears?
We've got what we wanted from them, the hero is safe.

Name the ship after one of the girls.

The Flintlock

>>39634702
Eh, bad idea.
That's bound to lead to shipping war.

"Get everyone packed up, I'm following ye to Gallete before I decide to go darting across the countryside."
"Ah- Good point." Charlotte nods. "We'll start to head out immediately. Where are you going to ride?"

"Ride, lass? Har!"
It feels good being able to say that.

The castle is only an hour away from the caravan, fortunately. You rather the caravan safely make it to its destination than risk flying off somewhere and something happening to the big expedition filled with princesses and knights.

Now that you think about it, this entire tour has been one giant bullseye for anyone who really wanted to cause destruction and mayhem for the land. That is, if anyone realizes that princesses and nobility were traveling with you. Most people seem to really be buying the impoverished hobo look your caravan was putting on.

The only one that you think may have been exposed is Tuile, and even then she isn't exactly-
You hold that thought, remembering that she's standing just in front of the helm. She's enjoying the wind as it blows through her long hair.

>Say something to Tuile
>Ask if she thinks you really got married
>Stay quiet, let her enjoy this moment
>Other?

>>39634832
>Ask if she thinks you really got married

>>39634832

Can't break the girl's heart now can we? Also glad I caught this. Was distracted by titty ninjas for a while

>Stay quiet, let her enjoy this moment

You know, I like Tuile.
She's really been growing on me since we had that talk.

>>39634638
You don't know the depths of my hate for the bears, but alas, I feel I am being rather biased to the these bears as they are not a representative of all bears.

Nah, you know your place. You're just going to sit back and let her enjoy the breeze.

It is very strong at this altitude, you're only a couple hundred feet above the caravan but it's still enough to put a good wind against your face. Tuile's beautiful hair wildly sways in the wind.
You find yourself sighing. You got a crew, you got a ship, and you have a beautiful princess.

By the captain's standards, that's all a man needs to enjoy life.

The afternoon sun is slowly starting to make its way below the horizon. Tuile seems to bathe in it, radiating an orange glow that reflects off of her dress. You can tell that she really enjoys this, or at least enjoys being taken somewhere that's not a bar.

You're just happy that she's found a way to keep herself safe. You're not sure what you would do if any of your crew were to get-

"HEY JACK!" A loud, harsh voice gets you out of your thoughts. You look to the port side to see Cody perched precariously on the edge of his Princesses' airship as it flies next to yours.

"Jack, something ain't right ahead. Mind if I get aboard and we go check it out?"
"Aye."

He hops on board as you break out of formation from the other Airship. Tuile and Cody find secure places on the ship as you slowly increase speed to outpace the Caravan.

- -

"Whar make you think sumthin' isn't right, Cody?"
"Charlotte says none of the patrols that are supposed to be out here are around. It's like everyone took off for the day."
Oh, that's never good.

The castle comes into sight just as you start to notice something else that's strange.
It's like EVERYONE took off for the day. The guards aren't standing in front of the gate, the merchants and traders aren't traveling the roads. The nearby town doesn't have any patrons mulling from store to store.

It's like a ghost town.


>Land and have a look.
>Nope, Jump off with Cody and leave Tuile up here.
>Go back to the Caravan and report your findings.
>Do some more scouting
>Other?

>>39636347
>Nope, Jump off with Cody and leave Tuile up here.
fuck.

>>39636347
>Do some more scouting
Look for burns and markings that look like those teleport runes. We might have to jump down ourself to check

>>39636347
>Do some more scouting
Shit

So anyone have some idea of what's going on?
It can't be that bear kingdom invading or anything, right?

>>39637107
I'm betting on crazy awesome bear guy rampaging through a wall.

>>39636347
>>Go back to the Caravan and report your findings.
>>Do some more scouting

>>39637107
Remember what we had been doing a while ago? Investigating disappearing villagers?

Yeah.

>Do some more scouting

Writing!

>>39637319
Shit.
Uh, Tuile's good at this sort of thing, right?

>>39637496
I think this is Aligot's forte actually

>>39637886
Well we're proper ruined then aren't we.

>>39637977
Hey come on give the guy a ch-nah never mind you're probably right

That's not good, not good at all.
Or as Cody very aptly puts it:
"Well shit."

"Where is everyone!?"
"This is that disappearing village thing again, Tuile. Only now it seems they managed to hit a much larger target this time."

"Hold on, Cody. Don't jump to conclusions just yet. They may have saw the airship comin' and thought they were bein' invaded. Let's just take a pass around the castle and see if anythin' is up."

Cody and Tuile peer over the side as you increase speed around the castle. Taking a good loop around, you can clearly see the balconies and the buttresses that adorn the stone fortress.

Yet again, nothing seems to be standing on any of them.
It's completely empty.

"Jack! The training courtyard!" Tuile seems to see something.

There is something in the training courtyard, a blonde girl with cat ears sits crumpled in the center of one of the fields. She's wearing full-plate, and looks like she belongs there.

"Hold on, I'm settin' er down."

- -

The tiny, blonde figure doesn't even notice when your ship lands with a thump. She's still crumpled up in the center of the training field.
"Hey!" Cody yells to her, still no response.

You both cautiously approach her. It seems kind of strange that of all the people that would disappear, she would be the only one left.
That's strange, you seem to hear her talking to herself.
Is she.. crying?

Cody quickens his pace as he hears the sobbing. You follow right along behind him.

Hey, you know this girl.
"Odelle?" She's a knight from Gallete, but she usually works with her brother.
"Hey, little girl, what happened?" This is probably Cody's first time meeting her.

"They're gone.." She sobs once again.
"Gone, Lass? Speak up! What happened!?"
"They're gone, and it's all my fault!" She chokes out, before erupting into tears.

Oh no! Catland has been stolen! There's one homecoming completely ruined! Will Jack find the missing kingdom? Will he be able to replenish his booze supply? Will announcer make a thread longer than five posts? Find out next time on Dog Ball Z

Thanks for playing

>>39638268
thanks for running

>>39638268
Well shit, got here just in time to miss the thread. Thanks for running announcer, at least it was the cats that got stolen.

Right, this can't possibly have been easy to pull off, there must be some hints on who it was so we can go and kick their asses.

>>39638268
thanks for running

>>39638268
>Catland has been stolen!
And nothing of value has been lost.

Thanks for the thread.

Damn. Every time I see this, I think "Man, I should really catch up on this quest so I might be able to drop in sometime," but, like all other quests I say that for, I promptly forget about it in favor of catching up on some other quest.

Such is the toil of an archivebro.
