Scott, they're not pirates! Last time I checked, pirates didn't use words like "sagacious." ;) Which is why I'm amazed that so many people got taken in by that fake screenie where they're all talking like pirates (and pirates who don't even know how to properly talk like pirates, at that! ;)).

So they are stingy, boring, educated Oriental sailors... :cry: :cry:

Why, TNT, why?

Not so! Not so!
These sailors? Boring?
There's always Kou-Jong!
and THAT, I must say, is VERY exciting!

er...
Well, I guess it's not, really.
Entertaining, yes. Exciting... uhm. No.

edit: Although, after a while at sea, the simplest things that wouldn't normally be all that exciting sometimes end up that way by comparison...

There's no way these guys are pirates. Thay have a gourmet chef and a concubine on board. Only Imperial Chinese Navy ships carry concumbines.

Wait, can I say concubine on PPT? Someone erase that and put "smurf."

She's not a concubine! She's an experienced seafarer who just happens to be rather scantily clad and the only girl on a ship full of men and...

*shrugs*

She does know her way around a ship, though. She was up there helping to secure the rigging along with the rest of them. So was the chef, for that matter.

That is somewhat weird... you would not usually see the chef helping secure the riggings, I don't think...

Usually being the key word there; it would make sense for a small crew like theirs to all pitch in when there was an emergency.

I don't get why they wouldn't have just flown above the storm if they could fly in the first place...

The storm came upon them rather quickly...maybe it takes time to raise the wings or whatever and they just didn't have time before the storm hit...

I got the impression from the way the Captain retorted about the flying capability of the ship that it could take off and fly whenever it had the whim to. o_O

Hmm...*thinks* Well, I'd imagine it's pretty difficult to fly in inclement weather once it's already upon you.

Either way, it seems to me that the decision to make it a flying ship went something like this:

Donna: Where should we throw it next?
Adam: If we put it in Altador, they'd think they were getting prizes.
Donna: Ooh, bad idea.
Snarkie: It could go to Faerieland.
Adam: But it's a ship.
Snarkie: So we'll make it a flying ship.
Donna: Sounds good to me.
