Mesabi Posted July 8, 2017 The WTC Beacon Rocked Heavily as it sailed towards Argentia. Heavily laden with goods taken from Nova Malto, the ship was low in the water. En route by North White, on Flickr "Ship Ahoy!" Yelled a WTC Marine En route by North White, on Flickr "Oy! Man the guns! I don't care what flag she's flying, we'll blow them to the bottom if they get to close!" Yelled Captain Mesabi from his cabin "You sure sir? She's flying our colours! It's the WTC Icarus Returning!"" The Marine hollared back "Oh." The two ships pulled along side each other En route by North White, on Flickr Captain Mesabi got over to the other ship, so he could talk to the crew personally En route by North White, on Flickr "Agnes?" Captain Mesabi asked "Well if it isn't my befated husband, Captain Mesabi, out on another one of his follies." Lady Mesabi said Shrilly. "Daddy!" the Mesabi children exclaimed. "Hello children. How are you?" Captain Mesabi asked "Did you bring us something?" They exclaimed En route by North White, on Flickr "What? No, your mother didn't tell me me you were coming!" Captain Mesabi said earnestly "Aw, you're a terrible daddy." Said Their Daughter "Yeah! I'm going to break something!" Said their Son "No, don't, uh, you can each have something we stole from Nova Malto." Captain Mesabi said "Yay!" They Exclaimed "Nova Malto was it? Do you know how I heard that you were on some Eslandolan Isle, doing gods know what? A royal messenger came to our house in Belson, and told us you were being made a Count for your actions there. Was Arlinsport not good enough for you? Just like Belson was?" Lady Mesabi asked angrily "Um..." "And do you know what it's like being the newest countess in Belson? It's awful, all the other nobility treat you like your a mega blok. So I said enough! I'm tired of raising these kids with tons of servants in Belson, and I'm coming out here to make you deal with it." Continued Lady Mesabi, "Uh, wait, I'm a count?" Asked Count Mesabi, confused "And it's the first half decent thing you've done for this family. Quitting your job as a queen's guard just to flee to Arlinsport wasn't great for our finances! Just because I have family money doesn't mean you can leave this family to the wolves." "Can we at least acknowledge We're now royalty?" Asked Count Mesabi "Once you understand just how mad I am at you." Said Lady Mesabi. Their was a certain fire in her eyes that led Count Mesabi to believe that this lecture would last a while And as the ships continued their voyage to Argentia, he found he was right. FIN Thanks for reading my story build for Captain Mesabi becoming a Count. I thought I'd introduce the Mesabi family while I'm at it. Everything is reused, and I really need to work on getting a bigger background, so I can fit more stuff in. Oh! and here's a video summing up my situation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czqhyVGdYiE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt Wolf Posted July 8, 2017 Excellent story. I'm cracking up at the Mesabi family. I'm beginning to understand why the captain is always searching for a farther-away island. Fun way to introduce more about your character and being made a count! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stig Posted July 9, 2017 (edited) Will you still use Captain Mesabi, after getting... counted? I dig(ress) your humor. Captain Mesabis straightforwardness, or should I say complete lack of impulse control? You sure livened up the the Nova Malto affair (when he ate the horse still cracks me up whenever I think about it). I have noticed that I start to laugh even before I open your new posts. Nice family. Reminds me of home. Edited July 9, 2017 by Sir Stig Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ayrlego Posted July 9, 2017 Perhaps Lady Mesabi can keep her husband under control... Although I feel she'll probably encourage him to further excess! A very humorous story, keep it up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bodi Posted July 9, 2017 Fun to read as usual, great family, and I like your style, Count Mesabi, shoot first and then ask for names. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Professor Thaum Posted July 10, 2017 You better had the Icarus fired and sunk... whatever the flag, whatever the name !

I'll probably use Count Mesabi as long as Corrington doesn't hang him for treason On 7/9/2017 at 5:30 PM, Ayrlego said: Perhaps Lady Mesabi can keep her husband under control...

If anything she'll probably make things worse. On 7/9/2017 at 6:57 PM, Bodi said: Fun to read as usual, great family, and I like your style, Count Mesabi, shoot first and then ask for names.
