*Eric couldnt help but smile a little bit as she said he always had been a softie. He lowered his eyes at her next comment and he nodded gently. He wouldn't leave either if he felt he didn't have to. He wanted to be with her more than anything in the world. He didn't feel empty when he was with Evelyn but on a ship, living life as a pirate, he just knew he would never fit in. As she handed him the braclet he smiled brightly and took it, looking it over with tender eyes. It was a simple gift, but it had touched him deeply.* Don't be so modest. It's a great gift, perfect example of yourself. *He stated, wrapping his fist about it tightly. He lingered a moment then tossed it back to her and grinned.* Well are you gonna help me put it on or not? *He asked, bending down to make it easier for her. Then he chuckled.* You and your damn height. *He winked. In all honesty he was lingering a bit. Trying to slip in just one last moment with her before he left, probably forever.*[/color]

Apollo only nodded and gave Will and Elizabeth and nod. Somethings needed not to be said outloud. He had his love now. he was content.
but of course Hermes would tease him forever and a lifetime. He rolled his eyes, gave his brother a good natured swat over the head and teasingly dismissed him from his sight. "Go watch your chrages. The gods only know what they could do up here."
and he laughed. laughed so joyfully the sky shone from it. The stars seemed to sparkle that much brighter.
It was Linea he looked at next. "Will you be happy? here? Forever is a long time. and mind you my dear Brother will live just as long. an eternity of him teasing you to the edge of sanity."
He smiled at her. "but then again. We dont need to live here forever. we still have the Black Pearl." then he grew serious.
"You know. We will live on. and they will fade. Your friends and family. I can not change that."

::Jack had the grace to look nervous. He blinked at Tobbs and took a gulp of wine.:: "Well...to adventure and the horizon then, luv."
::he was aboutto take another drink, when someone caught his sharp eyes. A plesantly merry looking god, sitting on a throne that had quite a few empty glasses nearby. Jack grinned and wadded over to him through the crowd.
"Ah! Jack Sparrow." The god greeted him. Jack grinned.
"Dionysus? Wine god?"
"That I am."
"Good. I've been wanting to challenge you mate." The god's golden eyes flickered and a sly grin grew on his face.
"Indeed. Well....." The gods lifted his glass of wine and Jack his. nearby celebrating gods looked their way, gave a indulgent smile and shook their heads.
"First to pass out is the loser?" Jack questioned. Dionysus nodded. Both began drinking top speed.
::Glasses were refilled. Wine. Mead. Rum. Ale. Whatever. If it could make you tipsy it was poured into Jack's and Dionysus's glasses.::
::Somewhere along the way Jack began a slurred happy version of his song. Dionysus was having problems with the lyrics....::
"No no...its yo ho yo ho....a pirates life for me...no parrot you great stupid prat......"
"Oh. Sorry. beautiful birds. bit loud. Well then...yo ho yo ho..a ....a....urm...what's that again...?"
"PIRATES!"
"Right then pirates life for me......we extort we plunder.....umm....?"
"forget it. another round...."
"right you are....."
::This could go on for some time......:::#nosmileys

Post by Rose Glassman/Hawk Aureye on Jul 18, 2004 13:34:54 GMT -5
Rose gave Evelyn an offended look, then spared Eric a grin and a wink before grabbing, filling, and downing her own goblet of wine. Then she saw Jack talking to...oh, who was that? Then she saw his staff, with a grapevine, and realized that whatever-his-name-was was the god of wine.
Rose suddenly realized what would happen. "Oh dear..." she said quickly, and grabbed one of the wine pitchers, hiding under the table with it. "Now 've got somethin', and I can watch...GO DAD!" she called brightly, taking another drink.
Hawk followed Rose under the table. "Rose, what're you doin'?" he asked with a groan. In reply, his sister pointed to Jack and Dionysus...Hawk grinned and nodded. "Oh." Taking a drink of wine himself, he settled down and cheered Jack along with Rose.
Hermes grinned broadly at his brother, then glanced over to see his only younger brother, Dionysus, engaged in a drinking contest with Jack. Another look - he saw his charges under the table cheering their father on. Hermes flew over, hovering a few feet away,, and smiled. This would be epic...

:Linea weighed what he said carefully.:
I know what you are saying about seeing those I love fading before my eyes, but I know that those who know me wish me to follow my heart and live out my life in happiness. Yes, forever is a long time, but I shall be happy, this I know.
:Thinking over what he had said about Hermes, she giggled.:
Well, after being around Jack, who's as much of a nutter as anyone. I believe I retained most of my sanity so I am sure I can deal with Hermes. And if a time comes, we'll find something to tease him about for a long while to come and he'll let us be.
:Turning to him she hugged him tightly and smiled up at him.:
Don't worry Roux, it will be alright. Is it not better to live the life that is given to us with the one we love or live life denying the part of us we truly desire? All will be well, I'm sure of it.

He listend to Linea, smiling. Well he couldn't argue with that idea. he was too happy to do that. "So what should we make you goddess of then?" He asked with a light grin. Then he heard cheering. shouts of "go dad!" and he turned his head. And rolled his eyes.
Apollo only shook his head. Smirking at Jack and his younger brother. of course th two would meet. it was Fate. the two drunkards.
He watched for a few minutes then turned back to linea with a smile. "I feel bad for Dionysus." He laughed. "I think jack's going for rum god or something of the sort."#nosmileys

"and really bad eggs....." Jack's slurred voice came. But he was really, considering the amount he'd drunk very sober. Dionysus was not all that far gone. But he was reaching it.
Jack grinned a wildly happy grin. "GO DAD!" Jack blinked and peered around then down. He spotted Rose and Hawk. He grinned. "alright then, for you two."
::and so it continued. The songs coming from the Captain and the god were becoming steadily louder......happy...then broken...as the two forgot words. Jack's face looked pretty confused. So did Dionysus. almost equalled out. Jack paused in his drinking and set his glass down to consider.::
::how many glasses had they passed? how many shots? The shots had to be well into a dozen. The mugs about three......glasses and goblets? four maybe......this last one would probably do it. Jack smiled. his head was spinning but he'd keep going if he could just beat the god..:

:Linea was astonished at the decision before her. She didn't know what to say as her voice caught in her throat a little bit. Then she smiled and realized what would truly suit her.:
I have always enjoyed a good sunset and love watching them. To be apart of it would be beyond all words. That is what I shall choose, if it is alright by you and your family. It would not do too choose something that wouldn't be suitable.
:She smiled and looked at everyone and smiled. They were all happy and she could see Jack had made a new friend.:
Do you think we should let him stay with Dionysus much longer? You never know how much more drink that nutter can drink. Jack is good with his rum, but Dionysus's wine? :She heard Jack start to sing and giggled while clapping her hands over her ears.: Oh my...this can't be good, he's singing...

Apollo nodded. "paint the sky for me each evening and I'll come home to you. it seems fitting."
He looked over at Jack and Dionysus. "Well that's a sound i've never heard before." He agreed. "I'm betting on Jack for now. He looks a bit better then my young brother does. Then again. It may be a bluff."

Sarah laughed as Jack became involved in a drinking contest with some man who was obviously a god. She tried to clap along with Jack's singing, which was hard because he kept slurring and correcting himself. Sarah then turned to Maria. You don't think you would belong, but I think you would. You'd love it marvelously there, but let's not worry about this now. We'll worry on the way 'home'. Come on now, I would like to see how Rose is doing. Sarah walked over to Rose and sat down next to her and Hawk. 'ello Rose! How are you? You seem very content...Sarah nodded to the bottle Rose was hiding under the table. She then turned to Hawk. Is this your brother Rose? I don't believe we've met. 'ello, I'm Sarah, Sarah Fleming. Sarah stuck out her hand to shake.

((I'm sorta using this account as the unoffical "god" account. for now savvy. Will this one's for you. so enjoy))
:::Hephaestus, the blacksmith to the gods, made his way over towards Will and Elizabeth. anyCraftsman could spot another by looking at him. He clapped a huge hand on Will's shoulder, and smiled. "Another blacksmith are you?" He said in a booming voice and a laugh like thunder.:::
"Mr. Turner." He added by confirming this to himself. "A fine swordsman as well. You put your heart into your work. Makes a big difference that does...." The god was smiling as if he'd just met a old friend and he peered at Will a long time. "Ah yes...there it is. You've got a spark from my forge in your eyes. You'll be a great blacksmith someday. you are now. But greater still in time my friend."
((BTW. anyone wants to meet a certain god or goddessor something. Tell me. I'll be happy to play along. just send a pm to me))#nosmileys

Yes, fitting indeed. Would be an honour to welcome you home.
:Looking over at Jack again, she cringed.:
Aye, a nasty sound, but something I've somewhat grown used to. I cannot wait to see how this contest ends, will be interesting, and I'm sure the hangovers will be very real and pounding.
:She laughed lightly at the very thought.:
Poor dears, in for a real treat in the morning.

* Maria rose a brow at Sarah's comment. She couldn't fit in, they'd hang her for sure. She follwed as Sarah walked over to Rose and Hawk. Sarah hadn't been introduced to him yet and wanted to get acquianted. Soon after her hello she nodded to Hawk, acknowledging that they had already met. She turned to glance over at Jack then turned to Rose..* " That man can sing..." * She said laughing*

Rose grinned broadly at Sarah and Maria. "'m very content, mate," she informed Sarah sweetly, and offered her the bottle (which was half gone by now - clearly, she'd inherited her father's tolerance of alcohol). "Yep, this'n's me brother Hawk..." She then smirked proudly at Maria. "Doesn' 'e? GO DAD!" she yelled again, cheering him on.
Hawk gave his best charming Sparrow grin to Sarah, taking her hand and shaking it. "Pleasure, Sarah. 'm Hawk, Hawk Aureye..."
"Hawk Sparrow!" Rose chimed in brightly.
Hawk rolled his eyes. "Hawk Aureye-Sparrow," he compromised, grinning again at Sarah.

* Maria cheered Jack on.* " Yeah, 'e's something...." * She shifted her weight and leaned against the table. Taking an empty mug she started to tap it against the table, creating a rythm that flowed nicely with their singing and cheering.* " So Hawk.." * She said still keeping the rythm and her stare straight ahead.* " Now tha' you've found tha' you 'ave family aboard the Pearl." * She turned to face him* " Will you be joining us on our journeys from now on?"
