[Worse bodies to be trapped in. Though Angel would much prefer his human body given the choice. Still, it's hard to deny Angel's body seems almost crafted for sex appeal, the legs, the curves, his heart marking on his chest...

He snickers softly in acknowledgement.]

There was that.

[His lips curl, head tilting coyly.]

An' how would ya like that get to know me? I can think of a few ways...

[divingdeep]

As can I. But I'm enough of a gentleman I'd like to start with a conversation and a few drinks before we get to any more intimate introductions. [The wink he flashes Angel is one meant to be sharing a joke: he's a pirate, not a gentleman.

But he does, in fact, prefer getting to know people. When the exchange of money for services is not involved.

Even when it is, it's just good sense to get a read on anyone he'll be vulnerable near.]

So... whereabouts are you from? I'm a London boy myself, although being sensible I escaped for warmer climes as soon as the option was made available to me.

[harderdaddy]

Heh, shit, real gettin' to know each other. Yeah, I guess I can handle that.

[Angel laughs, but he has been a lot more of a gentleman than most of the populace of hell. Speaking of which-]

Hell. But before that, New York. Never got to travel much up top. How far'd ya get?

[divingdeep]

One advantage of a sailing profession is how much of the world it allows you to see. I've been all over the West Indies, down to Rio and up to Boston. Made port a few times in Spain, too, though nowhere east of her shores.

And I confess I did not make it all the way north to New York, either.

[harderdaddy]

[Fuck, that sounds like a hell of a life all on it's own, never mind the piracy.]

Never even seen the ocean in person. It live up to all the hype? Always meant ta see Italy at least once before I went but the war pretty much fucked that plan.

[He laughs and shrugs a shoulder.]

Eh, ya ever wanna see the worst parts a it, I can always bring it up in the enclosure.

[divingdeep]

It's a hell of a thing to see, though I confess I am about done with the less glamorous aspects of sailing. [He chuckles, waving a hand.] Bad food and never enough of it, storms, leaks, watches at all hours, and that's before one gets to the life-or-death battles....

I'd like to see your New York. Could trade you for Nassau, and see which one of us has the worse parts.

[He tips Angel an amused wink.]

[harderdaddy]

Heh, I think I'd be happy just to see it from the shore. Nice beach...that sounds okay. Less life or death.

[He grins and nods his head.] It's a deal. Though without all the people ya really only get half the picture.

[divingdeep]

There is that. A city's not a city empty. Though a beach on an island in the tropics is a nice place to spend some time without a crowd around.

[He flashes Angel a grin.]

When my old ship's crew had to careen her, they'd set up a tent on the beach, invite attractive company and hold a barbecue for the occasion. First one I was responsible for, I confess I didn't pay proper attention to the barbecue.

It turned out to cause some small problem, as I was the ship's cook at the time.

[harderdaddy]

Mmm, it does sound nice. Too bad I can' work on my tan no more.

[He snickers at the story, thinking it wasn't surprise at all that he'd found himself distracted.]

Ya seem to have had quite the excitin' life.

[divingdeep]

[For very different reasons than he's implying, but still.]

Not being the sort to live a safe and quiet life, I wanted to ensure I fit in as much living as possible on the off chance I caught a dagger in the back before becoming obscenely rich and retiring to a private island off the shores of sunny Spain.

[He grins at Angel, and, quite deliberately, stretches out his good leg to press the toe of his boot against Angel's ankle.]

[harderdaddy]

It sounds like the right way to go about livin'. Fittin' as much in while ya can.

[Angel does wish he'd been a little better about that instead of spending so much time trying to get high enough to forget the life he was leading.

His lips quirk at that press, casually returning the touch with those long legs of his.]

That still how you're livin' life?~

[divingdeep]

At this point, I think it's more how I'm living death. But it might as well be the same thing, considering.

A man's got to go after what he wants when he has the opportunity, or never get it.
