| [001] A (PUBLIC AND TERRIBLE) POETIC CALL TO SHIP(S) AFAR; [voice] |
[Nov. 7th, 2009|11:50 am] |
[Yukimura was growing restless waiting at port with no word. Something must have gone wrong while the Victoria was at sea, because he could have sworn he was due to meet with her before the turn of the month to join her crew. To vent his frustrations, after a long sparring session with some of the local drunks, Yukimura opened his communicator and spontaneously composed some poetry. His voice was rough but passionate, even if the things he was saying were sort of, well, laughable.]
OH NOBLE VESSEL, I await your arrival at port, now past due.
What has befallen you to delay our fated meeting on the docks?
I long for the scent of salt-winds and gunpowder and to serve this land.
My heart's desire is to fulfill my duty beneath honored sails.
Pride of Ivona, reverently they call you, Victoria II!
[There was a pause and a very serious-sounding sigh.] It would be my honor to assist you now. If you're on the battlefield, struggling to complete your missions... truly, that is the place where a soldier should be! |
