I figured it out 👀 🍿

6 down, 9 to go, but I must to bed. Thank you for patience! Queueing all responses!

The retort forming on her lips sails away unfinished on the crest of an unexpectedly tall wave. It takes her a surprised moment to realize she’s being dragged deeper into the wake—she laughs and slaps Jan’s chest lightly, more of a tap, as she regains her footing. The salt water’s chilled him: his hand’s cold despite his smiling warmth. She’s versed enough in Dutch to catch the endearment but not its meaning—and then too distracted by his dazzling display of either idiocy or audacity. It’s hard to decide which.

“Ye’d ask an Irish lass wanted by their crown asides to sail with the English? Think again, chum! It wouldn’t be better to sail with the English, ‘less ye mean to say ye’ve grown tired of my company.” Political cannibalism and the unmistakable stench of a peat bog aside—some of it familiar with lessons of her own national history—the Dutch were more level with women by far than any other European power in these waters. She’d take her chances with the Dutch sooner than anyone else. “In which case, of course, fuck you.”

But there’s no malice in her tone, stating it almost as fact.

He’s a handful, Jan, but somehow he’s proven to be a handful Anne doesn’t mind. He’s like the sea breeze: light, playful, whimsical. A breath of fresh air, he fills sails and lungs and joyful songs, flitting to and fro in his fancy. What is must be like to live so light of heart, Anne can’t even begin to guess.

Talk of chains and walls and worser fates bring to mind an spook story that she damned near tells—a rarity, especially away from the quiet of a sleeping ship—when he takes possession of her wrist and pulls her into the sea beside him as if she weren’t trying to keep her good boots dry, the prick! She lets out a disbelieving laugh (could’ve passed for a scoff if that ghost of a smile weren’t haunting her face) and shoves him to land arse-first in the water.

“Speak for yerself! The world could do with fewer menaces like you.” There’s no steel in her words, no venom, not even so much as a barb: the curse of her self-imposed contrarian streak rears its head most often as contradictions between word and fact. She would miss him if he were to go. More people could stand to follow in his way.

A world without Jan would be a poorer world indeed—but that’s a thing she can’t say. (It reeks of the exact sort of wanton fuckery she’s only just convinced the crew is outside of her nature. The kind of frivolous idiot shite steeped in sentimentality that they claim women are solely so prone to. A reason to cast Anne out of their company.) She settles for a smile and leans towards him, offering him a hand up. She has to hope it’s sufficient, being very nearly as rare as a compliment from her.

“I only meant—t’ain’t so bad, to go a-pirating again. Even if it is with some dick-shit gang of Dutchmen.” A frequent term of almost-endearment Anne liked to use. She’s hardly a woman famous for love of any flag that wasn’t black and boned, after all. “At least we’re none of us fucking English, hey?”

The person I reblogged this from is awesome as fuck.

I thought so many things & never said a single one aloud. I choked on such longing I couldn’t spit out. Yes, desire is so different when God bore you hungry. I could have devoured anything and still have been starving.

Very stubborn ladies

Some shipwrights believed, and probably still do, that a ship has an idiosyncrasy that becomes apparent when she is assembled. Working on her day after day, the shipwrights can tell whether the ship will be good-natured and obedient to her crew, or whether she will have to fight them and have to be tamed. The most complicated ships can consist of several hundred individual parts, all of which must fit together and work together. A ship that rejects parts could prove stubborn or even vicious. Of course, it may also be that the shipwrights are just passing the buck for their own shoddy work. But as late as the 20th century, ships that left the shipyard with a bad reputation were burned rather than launched.  Their reputation preceded them, and the crew refused to sail with them.  

Oh, and one more little thing: while a ship is being built, never mention her name within earshot. Wait until the official christening. She knows her name before her owner does. If she hears it, she might wake up before she is really ready. And then God have mercy on all involved…. no one wants to sail on a lady like that.

"OOPS... I HAVE A CRUSH ON YOU" PROMPTS *  assorted dialogue, adjust as necessary

maybe i've developed feelings.

did you just expect me to keep my distance?

i'm afraid you'll break my heart.

i've had feelings for you all this time.

consider it a crush. just a crush.

i've been meaning to tell you the truth about my feelings.

i can't really help how i feel, now can i?

have you noticed the way i stare at you?

i can't keep lying to myself about my feelings.

it's all right if you don't feel the same.

it's difficult to be around you and not feel this way.

you make it easy to catch feelings.

you showed me kindness when no one else would.

how long have you felt this way about me?

i'm not very good at concealing a crush.

would you consider it a crush, or would you consider it... more?

i knew you had feelings for me.

why did you lie about how you felt?

you make me dizzy just by looking at me.

i can't keep myself together when you're near me.

i didn't think you'd ever feel the same way about me.

it's only a crush. it's harmless. it'll go away.

we're not supposed to feel this way.

from the moment we met, i knew.

you're rather cute, you know.

i can't exactly control my heart!

this isn't some thing i can just turn on and off at whim!

these are feelings! real feelings!

do you feel the same or not?

do i even have a chance with you?

could you ever see me as more than a friend?

do you feel anything when you look at me?

i've had a crush on you ever since i can remember.

i'm not blushing!

that was really sweet of you.

no wonder everyone gets so flustered around you.

i don't blame them for staring. i mean, look at you!

you're a very beautiful person.

anyone would be lucky to have you in their life.

was that kiss too much?

maybe i never should have told you how i feel.

forget i said anything to you at all.

you're not like the others. you're special.

you just made my heart skip a beat.

am i blushing?

you have a tendency to make things more difficult... yet more fun.

i'm at quite a loss for words.

you really don't know your effect on people, do you?

i think of you very fondly.

if it were possible, yes. i'd be with you.

if only we could make this work between us.

i'm afraid to feel more than just an innocent crush.

who told you i had a crush?

you're still trying to make me blush.

i'm really infatuated with you.
