Meanwhile on Boros, in a dimension far far away…

"Flechette, we'll need to borrow your backroom. Amy, I may need to trouble you for some umm, suitable, attire for my... acquaintances."
Citizen eyed Jack and Safe. “And nothing to flashy, ya know what I’m sayin’”

Citizen leads the group to the back of the shop and pulls open a heavy looking door. The back room was a reasonably sized but dark room, lit only by a small dingy over head lamp. In the centre was something that looked like a professional Tall card gaming table, surrounded by chairs.

Citizen pulled out a chair and let Bride6 sit down before taking a chair for himself. He waited for everyone else to take up positions around the table before speaking.
“I want to know who you two are, where you’re from, what you’re doing here, and why half the planets being blown up and the other half is being overrun with feds?” He leaned back in his chair. “And I want to know what you’re doing here on Boros, and I want to know now.”

More insane ramblings by the people who brought you beeeer milkshakes!
The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four persons is suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best friends -- if they're okay, then it's you.

"You just imagined it," Ath tells himself. "She just gave you a smile to say thank you. You don't honestly think someone like her would be interested in you, do you? I mean, did you see her eyes? And the way she moved?"

*Ath sighs inwardly, then politely excuses himself and jumps through TRM's portal, not noticing KOL's disappointed look as he leaves.

Once back on the Sereni-Tree, Ath heads to his room to rest. However, try as he might, he can't get the lovely red-haired woman out of his mind. He can't help but remember the feel of her in his arms as he carried her, her touch as she held onto him for support, or the determined look on her face when she used her ring of fire. But most of all it's her eyes that he keeps coming back to, that keep him from falling asleep.

Also, it's hard to get comfortable with the wings still on his back.*

TheRealMe concentrates, and causes the dimensional portal to the Sereni-Tree to move from near the plank to over the main deck of the pirate ship. Then he strengthens it and opens it a bit wider.

"There! Anybody who wants to join us is welcome. Any friend of Mad Anne Rackam...."

Is someone to be watched, he wonders....

"Is a friend to us!"

Holy….uh, so, Jack, I, um, sorta forgot a few things…um, oh cào!

Her past. Her forgotten past….my sweet Son, we need to find your father*

Aye Ann....um, TWG, I'd be honored to meet your new crew. I......just ummm need to collect a few things from ummmm below decks.

*turns towards the stairs leading below, mind still reeling from the impact of seeing the woman he thought was lost.*

Capt'n, permission to....

*is already stumbling down the stairs as his voice trails off.*

*twg hears the crash down the stairs..she runs to the bottom, finding jack unconscious and sporting a broken arm. *

PsychicRiver! PR! I need you.

*Her son is at her side in a heartbeat*

Help me get him back onboard the Tree. He needs the Doctor. *still shaky and a bit unsure of himself, he doesn’t use his powers, PR and twg carry him up the stairs and to the portal…once through the glowing doorway, twg spies the doc*

Simon, we need your help. He’s hit his head and I think his arm is broken and he may be drunk...

*Simon smiles at twg and PR, quickly coming to their aide, he kneels over Jack and begins to check his vitals* Who is he?

*How can she explain this? She only just remembered. What must they think of me, man to man to man...and now him. She thinks to herself, 'I'm sorry.' PR tilts his head and crinkles his forehead as if he heard her words. she pauses, takes a deep breath and locks eyes with the doc*

Hesmyhusband.

*his draw drops…and so does Jack’s head when both PR and Simon let go of him at her words*

*she grabs their hands* Before you get upset, let me explain…

While searching the cargo bay Jazaf reveals his thoughts on Deuce.
'She's a good girl. Sharp as a tack and getting better with the sword everytime we spar. The only thing I've noticed so far is that she's trying too hard to impress me.'

'Is that such a bad thing?'
'It might lead to a mistake further down the line. I should know.....'

While they were talking Trey and Jazaf come across a broken crate.

'Now what would?' Jazaf started.
'Hold on Mystery Man, look.' Trey points to a few feet in front of them.
'Blue? how'd you get in that crate? Come on let's get you back to the common room.'

HUSBAND?

*ignores the sharp cracking sound eminating from beside his feet*

You're married? To... a pirate? You're married to a drunk pirate?

Oh. Well...

Um.

* Jake7 and TheRealMe are the last crew members of the Sereni-Tree to stay in the world of Pirate Seas. *

Just a little higher, Jake7!

* The two of them, flapping their newly formed wings, fly up to the top of the highest mast of the pirate ship. As they near the top, TheRealMe pulls off one of his protective black ribbons and slaps it onto the pirate flag. The ribbon seems to sink into the black cloth, becoming one with it. *

There! Now I have something that will let me find this place again. I can home in on that ribbon when I want to make a portal to bring our newfound pirate friends back here!

* Jake7 and TheRealMe engage in a few more aerial acrobatics, then land and walk back through the portal to the Sereni-Tree. *
