[This event had been....tiresome for Bush. But that went without saying when the three people you spent the most time either looking after or talking with turned into little imps.

Not literally but....might as well have. Bush prayed that this might be over soon, because he did not feel he was particularly cut out for this.

Minding a crew? Yes, no doubt he was equal to the task. But watching after little children? Particularly when two of them he had known for a long while now? It was maddening. He felt it strange to call Kennedy and Hornblower by their rank as he typically would, but he had plenty of slip ups as the days went by.

Little Jilly wasn't too much trouble to watch on her own but the three combined?

Bush would be sent to an early grave, he swore.

But at this moment, he thought he was alone. He thought he could have some peace and quiet.

How wrong he was.]

what in the --

[Give him a moment. He just figured out how to use this monstrosity.]



I'm -- ah -- not sure if anybody is listening to this. This is a message to Luceti. [He pronounced it wrong. Whichever way you pronounce it, Lucetians, he did it wrong. Judge him and his lack of talent with foreign words.]

There is a ship in port, The Britannia. Quite a beauty, I have to commend Mr Kennedy for the design of her. Unfortunately she's come to be rather understaffed, so if there are any men who are interesting in crewing her....I'm sure her captain would appreciate it greatly.

That is all...back to your business.

[If William Bush could have it his way, he'd start a press-gang right here, right now. But that required a navy and men to help. So asking nicely would have to do.]
