*Captain Rose overhears Serenity's whispered conversation and laughs*
Do ye not know where ye be?
These here seas be known as th' Wing'ed Waters. Any man what drinks o' this 'ere water sprouts wings. We all have 'em, see?
*She whips off the gold-laced coat she had draped over her shoulders to reveal black, shiny, lacy insect-like wings. The other pirates all reveal their wings, too, hidden under cloaks or jackets or their long ponytails. Everyone has a different sort of wing; bat, beetle, moth.*
Well, we all 'ave 'em 'xcept 'im. *she says, gesturing at the drunken sailor.* 'E won't get in th' water. *She leans close, conspiratorily.* 'E can't swim!*
*She leans back and joins the other pirates in a hearty guffaw. The drunken pirate holds up his bottle of rum good-naturedly, taking a long swig and falling over backward onto a pile of ropes. This causes everyone to laugh the harder.*
But don't be worrin' none. *She says when the laughter dies away.* It ain't lastin'. Th' wings fall off after a coupla days. Which is why if ye wanna keep yer wings, ye need t' 'ave a steady supply o' th' water. Which is why we be pumpin' it into our hull as we speak. Which is why we don't take too kindly to strangers who fall outta th' sky and interrupt our clandestine operations.
Which is why I be needin' ye to tell me what ye be doin' 'ere.
Savvy?
Most Feared Piratess in 6 o' th' 7 seas!

/me rides his now-winged banana high above the lone ship, surveying the situation.

Mai, I have no idea what's going on. you disappeared, so we started a Mai-Quest.
No idea huh? Not exactly the answer I was hoping to hear. So I disappeared again? I guess that explains the major deja vu I was feeling. Basically, because of me you all nearly drowned or were eaten alive by sharks.

*sprouts pretty blue and purple fairy wings*
Now that was cool! Hmmm...maybe this day isn't so bad after all.
Excuse me, Miss Piratess, would you mind if we talk about some sort of trade for a nice store of your magical waters?
Rat, whatdya got we could trade her for, nice and legal like?

**jake7, still in fetal position, waiting for her sea sickness to pass, stares up at the wings. She thinks to herself**
Tzao Gao! I always wanted to fly! My ONE opportunity and I can't swim, so I protect myself with a force field...

*As KellyofLuthien feels a burning sensation near her shoulderblades, she says aloud:
"Hmm....the water does kinda taste like Red Bull..."
and sprouts jewel-colored butterfly wings.*

Of course. I knew that. 
The problem is I'm guessin' even a small supply of the magical winged waters pretty pricey. Can we afford it?

*comes to and staggers to his feet*
*holding a bottle of rum in one hand he grabs one end of the ropes and lifts it up with the other*
I can swim fine, just don't much see the point.
So, which of these landlubbers is first on the Rack Capt'n? They don't call me Rack'em for nuthin'. That one looks like he almost got eaten by a shark.
'Sides I had them bat wings once, Flew too high and fell too far when they *piffed*, like that Icarus guy. Yes, I've read a poem.
*drinks more rum*
So, who's first for some lashes?
ummmm....Marillion
