Norrington looked at the bible and at Aramis in amazement. He really was beyond knowing what to think. He wasn't sure which to be more surprised about. The fact that Aramis was talking to him face to face, could play the violen flawlessly, or simply, the fact that he'd found the violen in all this mess. "I'm honored, but, I can't take this. I ..." He looked away awkwardly. "...I don't feel the same way about you. I'm sorry. Today when we were trapped by that monster..." He was twiddling his thumbs over his crossed legs. "...I should really go...I'm sure...someone will be waiting."

'What?! What about earlier?' He looked at Norrington in confusion. 'Oooh, that! James my dear, earlier it was all in the heat of the moment. There is something that I've been wanting to tell you. I love your coat. If you get a new on, or something unspeakable happens, can I have it? I sorry, but I just don't swing that way... well maybe a little depending on the rum and how pretty they are...' He grinned and thrust the bible into Norringtons' hands. 'Now take that and bugger off. We're trying to have a party in here, and you're just not in a jovial mood.'
He pushed Norrington towards the door, which took an awful lot of maneuvering. 'Remember James, the word of God is, er, I forget, but it's something. Go and pester someone else, me, Jose and the doll have a full night ahead, and it may get a little wild.'

He looked at Aramis' serious face and laughed. "...something...'a little wild' huh? haha you git." He hugged him. " my coat? of course it was my coat!? and here I thought I was trapped here with a bunch of lunatics! take the bloody thing!" he proceeded to rip his coat off and hand it to him, then grabbed his flask from his pocket and took a large swig. "What the?...never mind. Thanks for the bible ducky!"
He stormed out of the cabin in his disheveled undershirt. Captain Dusk smiled. "Ah there you are! And you even got ready!"

Aramis slammed the door shut, and tried on his new coat. 'Fits like a glove! What do think Jose? what do you mean it makes me look fat! Who asked you any way...' He sulked back to his hammock and took another swig from his bottle of juice, and began to go through his new pockets. 'Oooh, look Jose, it's a diary! I wonder what's in it...'
Aramis spent the rest of the night reading poor Norringtons' diary, about his deprived childhood, his love affair with pancakes, and his hat fetish. He couldn't stop himself from laughing, and forgot all about Jose and that voodoo doll, although he did keep getting some strange feelings... What was Jose getting up to with that doll.... and why did it look like Aramis? Ooh, that's right, he'd made himself one bored wet Sunday afternoon on that little island.

Randomman: hmmm I'm getting hungry. (Starts to nibble on the peaces of Mongo Kong.) Big Gun: Did you get any of the treasure? Randomman: just enough to get some grub at Tortuga. (Randomman starts searching around in his cake pockets.) Randomman smiles:these are for you. (Randomman hands over a velvet bag.) Big Gun:thank you (searching inside the bags contents she found a whale bone brush, a pearl necklace, and some bright boysenberry's,raspberry's,blackberry's.) Big Gun : thank you very much. (Randomman smiles) Randomman:no problem (Big Gun takes out some fish wrapped up in a leaf. Randomman and Big Gun have a nice picnic as the sun sets over the island.)

Norrington woke to see the Captain seated with her back to him at her desk. She was wearing a coat he hadn't seen before with a high collar and wearing his usual hat that she'd swapped for her own. She was either writing or drawing something very intently with what looked like a small paintbrush. The cabinboy, who had turned out to be more of a student, was seated in the corner reading a massive book backward-turning the pages from left to right. He was sure he must have been dreaming, and turned around to fall back asleep when he heard the cabinboy say something to the Captain in a strange language, and heard her reply in the same tung. They're all mad, he thought.

Aramis spent the morning busy slaving away in the galley, chasing away anything foolish enough to try and get inside. Ocasionally the sound of manic giggling could be heard throughout the ship, making the few remaining members of the crew wonder what he was doing in there. At long last he emerged carrying a cover plater searching for Norrington.
It only took a short walk to bump into him. 'Ah, dearest James! Just the man I was looking for. I have something here for you!' He tried to suppress yet more maniacal giggling as he uncovered the plater, but failed miserably. Beneath there was a pile of steaming pancakes, expertly made and stacked. He placed it into Norringtons hands, turned and began skipping away, giggling uncontrollably all the time.

Norrington looked at Aramis' retreating back in total confusion. What on earth had gotten in to that loony today? He cautiously sniffed the pancakes. They smelled divine, he decided that even if they were poisoned he might as well go ahead and eat them. He figured a vampire couldn't be poisoned too easily...and...free pancakes! He happily took a bite, not yet questioning why Aramis had creepily delivered them to him. Perhaps hours of strip chess last night had left his head a little sleepy.

(Once the picnic was over. Big Gun started her patrol around the waters and Randomman started patrolling/watching the sky for cake invaders.) Randomman: I know you're there... (the stars shine bright) Randomman:..somewhere out there (Big Gun stops and sees a wishing star. she makes a wish.) Big Gun: what did you wish for? Randomman: hmm I don't know what to what to wish for. Wishing is pointless because I will make my dreams a reality! Big Gun:.... Randomman: what did you wish for? Big Gun: oh um nothing. (Big Gun goes back to patrolling.) Randomman:wonder what that was about?

Aramis, taking his duty's as first mate seriously for a change, was manning the wheel. Well, he LOOKED like he was, but he was still reading Norrington's diary, using the wheel as something to lean on whilst laughing, making the odd turn on the wheel. How many hats was it possible for one man to own? Needing a whole wardrobe just to store them all in seemed somewhat excessive.
Steve meanwhile was busy snacking on a seaweed salad, his personal favourite since coming aboard the ship. Jose and the voodoo doll were nowhere to be seen, maybe they had stayed below deck to spend some quality time together... Aramis WAS feeling a little funny still.
He didn't notice as Captain Dusk walked up behind him, snatching the diary from his hands, and seemed shocked to see it vanish suddenly from infront of him.

"Hm...what's so funny?" Captain Dusk came up and snatched the book that Aramis had been reading. She glanced at it and turned a couple pages. "Were you even paying attentin to where you were going Aramis? And what is........" She let out a little snort. "Where did you get this? Is this -" She laughed out loud. "Now Aramis, it's very-giggle-rude to be reading this with out permission, I'd best give it back." She made an attempt to close the book.
Norrington, on the other side of the ship, was checking their heading to make sure that they actually were still heading to Tortuga.

Randomman: Stay away you cake invaders! (Randommanstarts to run across the ship, making sure the invaders will not invade.) Randomman: you shall never beat us! (runs across the ship a few moor times) Randomman: never!!!!!!! (Randomman falls asleep upside down. while only being supported by his head)

'But Captain, he gave it to me last night! Well, he gave me his coat and it was inside it, but same thing. Plus, I think that there's some poetry in here somewhere....' He snatched the diary back and began flicking through it looking for some examples. 'Ah, here we go!' He shoved the diary back into the captains hands, waiting for the laughter to start.
'And Captain, I always know where I'm going. Have I ever got us lost? Wait, there was that one time when we ended up of the coast of Wales, but anyone could have made that mistake... We're headed for Toruga my friend, unless I read the compass wrong, and the stars, the charts, the... hmm that is a lot to misread. Maybe we should get Norrington to check where we're heading.'

Captain Dusk couldn't answer because she was busy trying to read through tears of laughter. "Ahahaha Norri. 'Hats'," She laughed. " ' I like hats. Puny hats, dirty hats, ugly hats, disposable hats. Any kind of hat. A hat on my head.' What on earth?" She tried in vain to suppress her laughter, soon joined in by Aramis.
Norrington tucked away the telescope he'd been using and turned to go find the Captain and inform her that they still had the correct heading. She was easy enough to spot, laughing or whatever with the useless first mate. He wondered vaguelly why he hadn't been made first mate instead, but he didn't really want to be first mate to such a lousy captain. A pity this life debt thing.
The Captain wiped her eyes with the back of her sleeve. "'A hat in some mud.-ahahah!- A hat on a rack. A hat in a house. I like hats. ..."
