(Well, I figure it's time Vergil finally makes his appearance. So....here goes.)
A beam of sunlight pierced the open space between the curtains, slipping delicately into the cabin to rest on the face of the young mink on the bed. A small groan eminated from the sleeping form as he pulled the covers over his face.
"Uuugh....doesn't the sun EVER sleep in?" Vergil mumbled, his eyes starting to drift shut again, before darting back open with a sudden realization.
That's right....today's the day we're supposed to arrive.
Slipping quickly into a pair of slacks and hastily buttoning a shirt, he all but flew to the stairway leading to the upper deck. As he entered the sunlight, he raised a hand to shield his eyes.
Casting his gaze to the south, he could see the bright colored roofs slowly approaching, and the shimmer of Castle Delight's minuets. He smiled warmly, taking a deep breath of satisfaction, which abrubtly turned into a cough.
Blech. Definately won't miss that sea air.
He paused for a moment to think. Today would be a big day; he wondered for a moment whether he would unpack straightaway, or whether he would go sightseeing.
Eh, unpacking could wait. It had been so long since he'd last seen BonBon... better to revel in it and leave the business end for later.
Nearby, Vergil could hear and see several of the ship's crew, laughing and joking lewdly about the pleasures they'd indulge in during their shore leave.
Vergil ignored it, though. Their business was theirs, after all, sex or otherwise. And yet...he was somehow bothered by his apathy towards the subject. He WAS a virgin, after all, and at 23. Maybe there was something wrong with him? Maybe...
He was jarred from his ponderings as a hand clapped him on the shoulder. He turned his head and found himself eye to eye with the captain, a large, heavy set walrus.
"Ah, so you're awake, are ye? Excited, eh?"
Vergil chuckled. "Morning Captain Jules. Yep. More than you know."
"Been to BonBon before, have ye?"
"Once, just for a brief vacation."
"Aye, you know, I can't rightly blame ye for wantin' to move out here. Nice 'n private, and all the pretty lasses a lad like ye could ask for."
"Maybe so, but it's not just that. It's hard to describe, but it's like...the moment I arrived there, it felt like home. You know how that is?"
"Aye, that I do. Bon Bon's a right lovely place, it is. If I weren't such a man o' the sea, I'd prolly settle down there myself. S'truth."
"Well," the captain continued, "I better get on down and get things ship-shape for landing."
"Wait." Vergil called to the retreating walrus. The captain turned to face him.
Vergil pulled out a handful of coins, which he had calculated to be enough for any of the working girls' fees in Bonbon, and a slip of paper with an address scribbled on it.
"Do me a favor and find any of your men who'd be willing to spend a little extra time on shore leave to get my bags to my house at this address. Then give him the money and tell him his lady for tonight is on me. And this-" he paused, producing a small pouch of coins, "is for your trouble."
The captain grinned. "Consider it done, lad. And thank ye proper. Ah, if only I had more customers as generous as ye, I could keep myself in enough ale and women to make a king green with envy!"
The two shared a chuckle, before the captain went on his way, leaving Vergil to gaze over the rails at the approaching town, pausing only once to look down at the notebook he held.
It's time to write my own story, for a change....
(Note: This is an open RP. Any are welcome. This first post is kind of just to "Set the scene", as it were, so feel free to add to it and describe what's going on with your own character at this time. Also, this is the first real attempt at RP I've done in a loooong time, so please, do feel free to offer constructive criticsm.<3) _________________ http://www.furaffinity.net/user/vergil - Home of Vergil's ranting and of would-be fantasy epic, Insontis Somnium.

((First time trying to get in so tell me of any errors))
As vergil was looking over the rails a slight poke came upon his shoulder. Looking over his shoulder he saw a raccon male standing before him in a pirate getup.
"Ei sar the captain sent me over to help with your luggage if you be needing any. They call me Jokaru, what be the name of who ill be helping?" _________________ Fursona Info.

(Actually, the 'help with the luggage' thing was supposed to be a plot device so Vergil could just get straight into the actual town without having to move his stuff, but that's cool. I can roll with this.)
Vergil whirled to face the raccoon addressing him, smiling slightly. "Ah, yeah. Just needed some help getting the rest of my bag to my house. Sorry about the short notice; I fear I tend to be forgetful about such things." He extended a hand to Jokaru. "The name's Vergil. Pleasure to meet you. Is the fee I provided enough, I hope?" _________________ http://www.furaffinity.net/user/vergil - Home of Vergil's ranting and of would-be fantasy epic, Insontis Somnium. Go there, NOW.:E |

(I think we have a small scene displacement, but if you don't mind, I'll give this a shot at making a new entrance).
A dark maned lion was standing near the docks, watching the ship as the crew disembarked, some displeasure on his face as he noted that, at least, some of the crew fancied themselves pirate. Still, he couldn't resist the call of the sea, and watching the ship hold in the water gave him some measure of satisfaction.
He, himself, was dressed in tidy casual clothes, his mane loose in the sea breeze, though he couldn't lose the formal stance that carried him through his job.
A young mink came down the gangplank, his bags carried by one of the somewhat obvious crew, a raccoon, and this caught his eye. He watched, quietly observing, until noticing a large snake-like character approach them, picking up the mink and apparently asking him a question. He chose to intervene.
"Here now," he called, stepping forward, "I hope you're just greeting a dear friend of yours, sir." _________________ http://harmlesslion.com |

Standing in abit of confusion himself the racoon replied.

Whatever welcome Vergil was expecting from the locals, this certainly wasn't it; he let out a loud cry of protest as he was hoisted off the ground. He scurries a bit to wiggle free, and turns his gaze towards the lion. "Greeting!? It'd be the first time I've seen someone being hauled off their goddamn feet considered a proper greeting!" _________________ http://www.furaffinity.net/user/vergil - Home of Vergil's ranting and of would-be fantasy epic, Insontis Somnium.

The lion halted his strides near the group, but couldn't help a curious expression at the reptile's apparent .. friendliness? He wasn't sure. As the raccoon addresses the snake, he nods, "Yes, that seems to be enough, he appears to be quite well greeted."
"I don't believe I met you when I came into town myself," he continues. "I'm Captain Michael Merriwether." The introduction is aimed at all three of them, though he extends a paw towards Henk. "And this is how we greet furs in MY homeland." _________________ http://harmlesslion.com |

"Yeah, that's much better. The name's Ve-HURK!!"
His sentence, of course, is cut off as he's hoisted from the ground and caught in a bear hug. After a couple of moments, he nods vigorously in response to Jokuro's expression. "Yes.....air, please...." he croaks.
As he's released, he coughs, breathes deep, and readjusts the grey vest and blue tie underneath, before taking the offered hand and giving it a firm shake. "Yeah... As friendly as you are, sir," he says, nodding to the cobra, "I think I prefer this way. Much less painful."
"As I was saying, I'm Vergil. Vergil Skylark. This is Jokuro. Pleased to meet you, Captain Merriweather, Mister...." he strokes his chin thoughtfully, looking over at the cobra. "I don't think you've told us your name." _________________ http://www.furaffinity.net/user/vergil - Home of Vergil's ranting and of would-be fantasy epic, Insontis Somnium. Go there, NOW.:E |

"My appologies but ill have to pass, im needed on the ship soon as im done with Vergils packa-"
Before finishing his sentence though Jokaru suddenly gets a mischievous look on his face.
"unless a certain commando wouldnt mind oh say..."
Whispering to henk

Captain Meriwether shook each hand in turn, "A pleasure, Vergil Skylark, and Henk Cobra." He eyes the raccoon, "And you sir, as well, should you wish to join us. If our Commando friend is fine with you, I should have no cause to judge otherwise, certainly not in this town."
He lifts his head at the reptile's offer of a drink, and turns his head towards the town. Before he can reply, Jokaru is whispering to Henk, and the lion's ears catch enough of the suggestion to decide to intervene.
"There is some distance to go to whereever Mr Skylark is staying, and if you are carrying his affairs, I'm sure your Captain would not begrudge you a single drink. Your ship is clearly not departing immediately. Other than that, it sounds like a fine plan to me." _________________ http://harmlesslion.com |

Vergil takes a moment to consider, stroking his chin thoughtfully. "You know, that doesn't sound like a bad idea. Haven't had a proper glass of wine since I left the estate."
He nods at Michael's suggestion. "Yeah, I don't see why not; Captain Jules is a pretty good natured fella. I'm sure he wouldn't mind if you indulge yourself in a quick drink. Hell, I'm sure that he can appreciate the need for a drink everynow and then more than ANYONE could." _________________ http://www.furaffinity.net/user/vergil - Home of Vergil's ranting and of would-be fantasy epic, Insontis Somnium.

"Last time I try to whisper with a lion nearby"
Jokaru said rolling his eyes. @_@
"Guess one drink will suffice then, so where to?" _________________ Fursona Info.

(sorry but i had to skip a little or i might not have got to join.)
Drodel was in town in his suit and had just started some shopping for some food for his house when he noticed Henk with some others tha looked new, except for the Lion that he has seen around town before but was never introduced. I got all day. Why not might be fun. Drodel thought as he walked to intercept Henk and the group. Drodel was just infront of Henk. "Hey Henk, Looks like you made some new friends." Drodel said with a smile. _________________ yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. that's why it is called the present.

((understood then that we've skipped the dropping off of bags and checking into a room, and we're down to the bar area - works fine for me! Are we preferring present or past tense here?))
Captain Merriwether followed the snake somewhat absently, not quite sure what to make of him just yet, although Henk clearly knew his way around town. At the same time his curiousity towards another sea-farer kept coming up, and he found himself talking to Jokaru. "So where are you sailing from? How are the waters?"
He looked up as Drodel stopped Henk, and smiled at the friendly intervention from the well-dressed creature. "Henk Cobra, seems you have another friend to buy a round for," he teased. _________________ http://harmlesslion.com |

(Fair enough; not much action in dropping some luggage off, anyway. Though I think we're supposed to be 'en route' to the bar at the moment.)
Vergil follows at a steady pace, trying to keep an interest (slightly detatched as it may be) in the conversation at hand as his eyes wander in observance of the town, the people going about their business, men walking the streets with their selected ladies of the evening. The afternoon light bounces brilliantly off the rooftops, and even the grey stone composing the street below him.
"Just as beautiful as I remember..." he mutters quietly to himself, flipping his notebook open to write down an idea that occurs to him as he observes a young rabbit and her vulpine beau, sharing her parasol to shield themselves from the sun.
He looks up from his scribbling as he notices Drodel, offering a nod of greeting. "I concur with the Captain; looks like you'll be building a rather large tab." _________________ http://www.furaffinity.net/user/vergil - Home of Vergil's ranting and of would-be fantasy epic, Insontis Somnium.

(Thank you. Since I wasn't part of the beginning group, I'll start off in the background. Just tell me when/if I mess up.)
Upon paying his wages to the captain and cautiously waiting for the rather exuberant snake to begin leading his party onward, the green fox finally makes his descent from the ship; his single bag of luggage tossed over his shoulder. After walking the docks a short distance away from the ship, he is once again reminded that he has never before been to Bon Bon. He still doesn't know quite where he's going.
Remembering the group that just left, he thinks to himself He may be a bit... energetic, but he seems to know his way around. I might as well head that direction myself. At the least, I may be able to find a bite to eat on the way.
Making up his mind and readjusting the bag over his shoulder, Fuse heads off in the direction the snake lead the other group. |
