It was nine in the morning on some regular Skull Island Sunday a few weeks ago. I was still trying to wake up, having been greeted by nothing more than the squawk of island birds and the soft tone of the coastal breeze. Deciding to go for a quick sail, I teleported to the life fountain. The loading screen opened up to somewhere...different. Rats indeed, for under me were pirates. My boot-clad legs dangled, as did my entire self, standing comfortably on nothing. Behind me, my personal bubble had gauged some of the cliff out; I had been standing on the same one just seconds before.
"Hey!" I looked down towards the docks. Had someone just said hello...to me? Well, obviously not. Another pirate lumbered forward atop a crokogator, catching up to the speaking pirate.
"Yeah, I'm here."
Skies forbid actually reacting.
"Stop following me."
I read through the chat as this conversation played out.
"No."
"Well, okay. Want to run a dungeon?"
"Sure!"
I smirked and clicked back to Twitter, then to my e-mail.
"Thanks for all the help!"
I spied a level 65 pirate below running from a ship. A lower-level pirate stopped with his chat bubble.
"Yeah, no problem!"
Keep Traveling
The chat content is aligned to the right as the Pirate101 whisper messages come in from that side; it's also to separate my broken commentary from the dialogue in order to maintain fluency.
