theshabbiestofmen | IC Contact;

if you're in a tight spot, anything at all, you can text me with just a "3" and i'll know it's a secret code i invented with a friend who used to be on the ship you can tell Sirius, and James too ( who i still have to meet but the offer still stands ) 3 is serious business 3 means i'll drop everything and find you it means you don't have time to explain or- i dunno. anything. i know i should have told you about this ages ago but i guess i got a little conceited and didn't think we'd ever need it but you never know, right? maybe this'll all be fine and there's no reason to bring it up now but just for my own peace of mind

That's a brilliant idea. I'll tell Sirius and James, thank you-- and the same goes for you, obviously. If you need me, I'll come.

good. be safe, love.

[He grins at that one word-- love-- for far too long a time.]

I'll see you on the other end of this mess.

also! remind me later to write a privacy encryption for you three. i'm not the *best* at them, but any encryption is better than no encryption, which you boys tend to forget, meaning anyone and everyone can read your conversations...

[ aka: i scrolled right by them all because it's really none of my business but honestly how was I supposed to ignore my own name coming up in your conversations, i'm only hu- i'm only mutant! ]

[a beat.]

I've said nothing but flattering things about you, you know.

i'll take your word for it. c: though my point still stands! people snoop around for information on these things, so.

True. Well, I would be quite indebted to you if you'd do us that favor.

[A pause.]

Although you realize this means I'm rather hesitant to flirt with you over the device now.

but i *like* flirting with you over the comms device plus i encrypt most of our stuff anyway

So long as it's encrypted. I'd rather not have the entire ship know our business.

[HE GETS FLUSTERED EASILY OKAY.]

so you're saying i should cancel that public transmission i planned on posting after this whole pirate invasion thing, declaring my love for that thing you do with your tongue? well that would be the first transmission, it was going to be a whole series..

Raven!

remus! are you blushing tell me tell me i wish we were on video

No I am not.

[He totally is.]

are you sure no wait don't tell me don't don't don't you're not allowed to do cute things when i'm not around to appreciate them

You are being ridiculous and I am not blushing because I'm a man and we don't do things like that.

you're getting all huffy now, aren't you!

I-- no. I don't get huffy. Huffy implies I act like an old woman.

but you get all sour-puss face and huffy it's a fun thing, not an old lady thing! fun for me, right

>:( you are infuriating

i like that i infuriate you gives me a reason to make it up to you

Which I assume you will after this pirate business is over with.

i'll certainly try my best!
