26th Transformation [video/action for travelmates | Backdated to 11/24]

[exeggutorhead]

[This 'Gear feet is a video, but it's so dark you wouldn't be able to tell. It's clearly an accident, so maybe it's just that the device is in Envy's coat pocket. Or it could just be that dark where he is. Either way, viewers will be able to hear the sounds of scuffling and Envy exclaiming quietly.]

--quit stepping on my feet!

Oh, that was you. Sorry, I thought it was some rope! [This voice is low and seems genuinely apologetic, and some might recognize it as belonging to Miguel.]

[Someone else speaks up now, voice hissing. This one is easily recognizable as Tulio.] Be quiet!

What're you so worried about, nobody's going to hear us.

Well they will if you keep up with all that-- that cacaphony.

Sshh sshh sshh! I hear something!

[All three of them go quiet now, so anyone listening to this feed will now be able to hear the sound of…waves? It sounds like these three are on a boat. There's also the sound of creaking footsteps walking by wherever they are, and it's not until a minute or two after the footsteps passed by that they finally exhale.]

I hate boats.

[There's a few moment's pause.]

…how long will this trip be?

…a few days, I think.

Oh, great.

We have to hide in here for days?

At least it's not a month…

[There's some more sounds of shifting before the 'Gear feed gets knocked off again.]

[ooc: Green for Envy, red for Miguel, and blue for Tulio! As this is a joint post, all three of them will be replying to tags.]

...you have a boat?

[This is totally not the point, but England is making it the point because damn it! He wants a boat!]

[Video]

[exeggutorhead]

Well it's not...ours, it's the ferry to that island town. Cianwood.

[That's okay England, Envy is definitely okay with talking about boats and not how they aren't on this particular one intentionally.]

[Video]

[somanytosofew]

Oh. Pity really. ...you're stowing away, I take it? I used to keelhaul people who stowed away on my ships.

[Video]

[exeggutorhead]

...Guess we're lucky this isn't your ship, then. [Because that certainly sounds unpleasant.]

And it's not like we stowed away on purpose.

[Video]

[somanytosofew]

Most likely. I rather miss it all; attacking other ships to steal their treasure... ah, those were the days.

...how do you stow away not on purpose?

[Video 1/2]

[exeggutorhead]

So you were some kind of pirate, then? [Envy looks both amused and interested to hear more. Amestris hasn't ever had pirates for obvious reasons, unless there were somehow lake pirates. All they've got is train hijackers.]

[Video 1/2]

[somanytosofew]

I was a pirate, yes. Sailing the seas in search Spain's ships so I could thoroughly bugger them up. That was always satisfying.]

[Video 2/2]

[exeggutorhead]

[And then that questions. Envy frowns, looking the tiniest bit sheepish, but mostly has that 'not our fault in the slightest' look to him.] We were hiding in one of the lifeboats while it was docked and it left before we could get out. It's not our fault they didn't check before leaving.

[Video 2/2]

[somanytosofew]

[England just regards him for a long moment and can't quite hide the small smile.]

Ah, I see. I still suggest mutiny and taking over the ship.

[Video]

[exeggutorhead]

Spain, huh? [Envy looks...pretty amused at this. He may not know much about what Spain is like, but he does know that's where Miguel and Tulio are from.]

[But huh. Mutiny. Envy looks like he is totally considering this, a smirk spreading across his face.]

You know, that might not be a bad idea. Beats sitting in a lifeboat for three days.

[Video]

[greatbigrock]

-- no? Do you really think we'd be hiding on our own boat?

_{[Hi, excuse the snarky interruption. :I]}

[Video]

[somanytosofew]

Why not? It's a good way to hide. Change the flags you're flying and everyone thinks you're from a different country.

...and it makes it very easy to attack them.

[Video]

[greatbigrock]

_{[Riiight... gonna just quietly eye you for a moment.]}

... and you know a lot about that kind of thing?

[Video]

[somanytosofew]

...I perhaps have some experience in that area.

[Video]

[greatbigrock]

So are you a boatsman or something?

[Video]

[somanytosofew]

I have been in the past, of one kind or another. Depended on my mood.

[Video]

[somanytosofew]

Something like that. From time to time.

[Video]

[greatbigrock]

_{[So then he'll try to steer the conversation away from boats.]}

You don't sound all that attached, pal. What else do you do?

[Video]

[thattrail.livejournal.com]

Well, uh, no. I wouldn't call this little boat ours, not just yet and.. not the big boat either actually.

[Video]

[somanytosofew]

I see... it's really much more fun if its your own boat.

[Video]

[thattrail.livejournal.com]

A lot more comfortable too, but we'll have to do with what we can get.

[Video]

[somanytosofew]

Mutiny. That's what I suggest.

[Video]

[thattrail.livejournal.com]

That would make us three people against an entire crew on a pretty large ship. And they're probably paid too, sooo.. I think I'd rather not.

[Video]

[somanytosofew]

Bah, no sense of adventure. I'm sure it's doable. And then you can go wherever you like.

<sub>[No sense of adventure? No sense of adventure?? England do you know who you are speaking to]

We're in the process of hatching a plan, actually, which I am sure will, if successful - and I know it will be - let us go wherever we like.</sub>
