Okay but consider: Andy getting a sea shanty stuck in her head so she starts grumbling the words under her breath and then Joe then Nicky then Booker join in and you just have these immortal warriors absolutely belting Wellerman in perfect harmony and Nile just sits there like ?????????

#tog #im absolutely convinced andy and quynh were The Best pirates #and honestly joe and nicky too #apparently i need a pirate fic now #booker came up in the rise of the pirate age right? *goes to check notes*#no ok it was about a hundred years too early for him give or take #so he probably just learned them bc andy and joe were absolutely insatiable when it came to sea shanties for at least a century later #like whenever theyre walking/riding a long distance or have to do manual labor or are just bored #and Booker thinks for a second that nicky might be normal but then they have to take a ship somewhere and Oh Boy #Nicky climbs to the bow of this perfectly normal trading vessel in say 1850 #and just looks out into the water solemnly and booker walks up and is like ça va nicky whats wrong #and nickys like 'have i ever told you of my time at sea?' and bookers like non so nicky goes #'hm si i was on a ship called the Billy of Tea. once on a journey we were hit with terrible winds the bow dipped down and the gales did blow #and bookers like 'weird phrasing but ur italian so ill let it slide'#nicky: and our captain; a famous whaler; said to us out of nowhere 'blow them bully boys blow'#booker: what. what does that even mea-#joe and andy and every fucking sailor on that goddamn ship (bc sailors know the shanties i know that for a fact): SOON MAY THE WELLERMAN #COME TO BRING US SUGAR AND TEA AND RUM #and then nicky starts leading the verses in his dolce voice and booker just looks over into the roiling sea like #'yea i could probably survive that jump.'#then andy shoots him and drags him to the quarters so he Doesnt Do That #but yea #i need a pirate fic STAT #if you have a rec PLEASE send it along ill love you forever
