Francis Drake
Still on a non-functioning flying bote
'I want to ride one of them, damn it.'
"Much as I've enjoyed the time you've spent here, we should probably get a move on, before they decide to be more friendly than they already are,"
"Normally, I'd argue that we could probably take 'em but..." Drake knew the cannons on her Golden Hind, once properly invoked, were classified as an
anti-army attack. However, that required the proper invocation of her Noble Phantasm. As they were now, they were just regular cannons... and she knew that it was
probably overkill to use the Golden Wild Hunt on these overgrown snakes. Probably.
She was Francis Drake, she didn't do things by half measures!
... And she wasn't exactly sure she had the mana necessary to even survive using her Noble Phantasm. Safety concerns.
Drake eyed the serpents thrashing in the water thoughtfully "... Aye, I agree. For once, I'd say it's a good idea to turn tail and run."
Then I remember that Francis' ship is a sailing ship. "Can your ship move without the winds? If she can't I'm sure we could find some rope and tie our ships together."
"While she is a sailing ship, the Golden Hind isn't limited by the lack of wind. She can move whenever she damn pleases!" Drake boasted with a grin, planting her hands on her hips and looking somewhat smug at her ship's capabilities.
While the Golden Hind was now a physical object instead of just being her Noble Phantasm which was some kind of magical magicy thing she was unaware of, she knew instinctively that it had retained some of those mystical abilities.
But... ah...
"... She's not exactly as fast as your baby though." Drake admitted after a moment of self-indulgence. "Your rope idea has some merit but ah, we'd probably need to find something heavier."
She turned to face the railing, towards her own ship and sucked in a deep breath...
"OI! YE LAZY SCALLYWAGS, GET YOUR SORRY REARS UP TOP!" Drake bellowed towards the Golden Hind.
Silence reigned for a moment, punctuated by the sound of the waves and the slight breeze upon the sea. The moment passed, however, when a shimmery figure walked up from below deck on the Golden Hind. The figure was... a human, dressed like an ordinary sailor from the 16th century complete with a cutlass and a flintlock pistol. They would've passed for any ordinary human were it not for the slight shimmery effect surrounding the sailor.
Drake didn't hesitate, instead continuing to shout at the man on the Golden Hind's deck. "GO WAKE THE REST OF THE CREW. I KNOW YOU SORRY DOGS ARE SLEEPING IN BUT NOW'S THE TIME FOR ACTION! GO FIND ME SOMETHING LIKE... I DON'T KNOW... A CHAIN, LONG ENOUGH TO CONNECT OUR SHIPS."
The man didn't audibly respond but instead vanished below deck. Drake nodded with satisfaction.
"Hopefully, the crew will find something... if not, maybe your ship might have something onboard." She turned to face Setzer again, the usual laid-back grin upon her face once more.
"Ahhh... This is going to be the start of something great, I can feel it in my bones. If only we had some sort of rum to seal the deal." Drake laughed and clapped a hand on Setzer's shoulder.
