Christmas on the Pearl

[pirate_gibbs]

The Captain's quarters are set. The large desk has been cleared of Jack's personal goods. The rest of the room is neat and orderly, as it tends to be (much to Gibbs' constant surprise). Whatever chairs can be found belowdecks have been dragged up by the first mate, creating a cozy feel.

The desk and the larger chests are covered with oilcloth, which serve as crude tablecloths. The ship's hodgepodge of dishes, cups and silverware, plundered from many ports and ships, sit near a selection of traditional holiday treats, from ham to mincepie. At the center of the desk, there is a crystal decanter with a gold nameplate saying "Captain Jack Sparrow", filled with red wine, surrounded by matching glasses.

And there is a small, sparsely decorated tree in a corner near the hammock.

It's Christmas on the Black Pearl. Welcome.

"That's why we put a time limit on it" she laughed, a sound like summer across the ice.

"We could weigh pounds of food out and set you at it..." then post the record in Bar and see if anyone else could beat it...

"You could, perhaps."

Raven grins.

"But I cheat."

Sometimes.

"That's okay, so do I" she waved a hand dismissively.

"I just think it'd be hilarious to see who'd try to beat your record"

And now Raven looks thoughtful, indeed.

"Now that, I think, would make it very much worth the effort, yes?"

Maybe not today, because eating all the Pearl's supplies would be bad, but--

"And there's plenty of doctors in the Bar, in case some of the challengers don't have your handy knack of not choking" she agreed.

Then she sighed, glancing over her shoulder at the dinner spread "True. We don't want Jack to make us walk the plank or something..." Though that could be amusing too.
