Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum! (plot participants)

[esmeralda]

((Let's get this plot started, shall we? ))

Esmeralda smiled and looked over at the sailors. Then she shouted out an order that she had heard Captain Teague Sparrow use many times.

"HOIST THE ANCHOR!!!"

The anchor was hoisted, and all ropes pulled in, as "The Misty Lady" went out on her journey, in memory of her Captain Teague Sparrow. Esmeralda went over to the steering wheel and held it, and with steady course towards the open waters, she steered a ship for the first time of her life. She turned to Poca and Elisa and gave them an eager smile.

"The trick is only to get started," She said. "You'll soon get the hang on it. Do any of you want to try to steer. It's fun!!!"

She eyed the Crow's Nest eagerly.

"I would love to climb up there and see if I can see any ships!!!"

[Penny]

((Sorry I'm late on posting. Just checked my pms a few minutes ago *slaps self on head*))

Penny's eyes opened as she awoke from falling asleep in the kitchen, holding an apple in her hand, at the sound of Jim playing the guitar. She blinked a few times before stretching and yawning. "I really shouldn't fall asleep here, should I?" she murmured to herself before stumbling up on deck.

Her eyes landed on the figure at the wheel of the ship. Eagerly, Penny giggled and waved, soon after adjusting the bottom of her shirt.

[esmeralda]

((I am glad you could join us *hugs* ))

Esmeralda noticed Captain Teague's "Wee Princess," and left the steering wheel to Red Billy for a while so she could walk over to Penny and say hello. She wrapped her arms around the girl and pulled her into a motherly hug.

"Hello, Penny. Good to see you again. I came to deliver some presents from your Papa. He wanted to give you something to remember him by, until he returns. I doubt he is gone forever."

She offered Penny a gift-wrapped box.

"This is for you."

She smiled and looked around at the ship.

"We were thinking of going on an adventure trip, in your Papa's honor. Would you like to join us?"
