The sky is cool, grey, and occasionally misting, but that just means when you are working hard you can keep warm enough.
And there is certainly plenty of work to be done. The deck of the Black Pearl has been cleared off, with debris and pieces that are large enough to reuse stacked carefully. All over is the gleam of cut and exposed wood, the splintered edges cut and smoothed in preparation for patching sections. One mast has been cleared of charred and torn sails and rigging, the canvas and rope set in one area to work on before it can be sent back up.
One of the current priorities, however, is fixing the stern section of the ship, the back wall of the captain's cabin, that took some of the worse damage from the kraken-
Scottish autumn nights can start to get chilly, afterall.
Party thread style, slowtimes more than welcome.

He grins again.
"He is a pirate, after all."
Which means that Wellard may need to run interfearance once or twice.

Archie's method of dealing with that sort of poking has always been to simply grin and not deny any of it. It takes the wind out of the teaser's sails. Of course, there have been the times where he just turns red and sputters. That happens just as often as the other.
As for Jack, he can tell a hawk from a handsaw.
