P-P-Pirates?! I scoff at the very idea! Surely we are not so gullible as to be bought in by their ilk!

Tis a trap, I'll presume. No good can come from trusting a Pirate Queen.

Anything better than quiet. And if the pirates get too rowdy we beat 'em down. We're pretty strong here.

It's at least somethin' different!

[ofnovalue]

If you'll forgive my boldness, m'lady, but this seems naive. I'd prefer the quiet to this.

[fionna_time]

Not me...its been quiet enough. I want something to do that isn't about romance or eggs and junk.

[ofnovalue]

Surely it need not involve pirates.

[fionna_time]

I dunno, something different where we all band together to fight pirates? Sounds kinda awesome!

[ofnovalue]

I do not find putting myself and others in danger to be fun.

[fionna_time]

But we get into plenty of danger anyway, even if there are't pirates. Heck, I've been attacked by people who LIVE here too.

[ofnovalue]

Then why add more?

[fionna_time]

Because there's just been WORSE. This letter doesn't even sound so bad anyway: maybe they aren't the bad kind of pirates.

[ofnovalue]

All pirates are the bad sort.

[fionna_time]

Well that's a pretty closed way of thinkin'. Do you know all pirates?

[ofnovalue]

Pirates are thieves and murderers by nature. A "good" pirate is not a pirate at all.

[fionna_time]

That's ridiculous. Just because someone does a certain job doesn't make them a murderer or a thief, like, all the time! I could not be a pirate, but that's not stopping me from doing those things!

Why don't you just wait and see what happens before you decide anything?

[ofnovalue]

A job that requires thievery and murder. You will not convince me they are anything but.

[fionna_time]

...

Yeah well. We'll see what happens.

[ofnovalue]

You will. I will remain here with Agrias.

[fionna_time]

Agrias?

[ofnovalue]

My Knight.

[fionna_time]

You have knight?

What does he do for you?

[ofnovalue]

She is my companion and guardian. I trust my life to her, and she trusts her blade to me. That is what a knight and their lady are meant to be.

[fionna_time]

OH.

I guess...I don't even...what's her name?

[ofnovalue]

Agrias. Agrias Oaks.

[fionna_time]

You...have a good Knight then.

What is it you guys did, in your world?

[ofnovalue]

... Have you met her?

[fionna_time]

No. If she's here, I'd like to though.
