You’ll start with some soft balls, then build up from there. A good pace is always important!

“I have a question.” You stroke your chin like you’re about to say something stupid. “Sally, why are you a pirate?” A strangely reasonable question from you! A lot of people in the room were wondering the same thing.

“Blimey whammy! It’s a type of tale you don’t hear often…” Sally tries to give mystique to her narration. “I was a sea captain! I brought shipments from one side of the globe to another. Takes a rare gem to travel the seas in these monster-infested waters. If you have the skill, your talents are highly sought after by all shipping companies.” Sally pumps her chest, proud of her abilities. “But in one instance, my cargo was full of smuggled goods. Even if the investigation cleared me of being involved, I was vetoed from acting as captain. I lost my license...”

“You were framed?” Vera believes in her massager.

“Yes! Argh! I wasn’t careful! I have a hunch it was the cargo company that did me in. Not that it changed anything. My heart turned dark… and I decided that since I can’t be no sailor, I should become a pirate, matey!” Sally sounds more silly than evil. You’re starting to appreciate Vortexia’s act.

“What a rebel.” Beth finds the pirate very cute.

“Then you started smuggling goods on purpose?” Zyra asks.

“No, I was hired by an international company, and got different qualifications.” Sally shakes her head.

“O-Oh…” Zyra expected something different.

“You told me you got detained at a checkpoint here, delivering goods for the N.U., right?” Beth asks.

“Aye!” Sally smiles. “I never knew why…” Sally laments. That’s why Judith must be willing to help her out.

“I’m sorry you had to go through all that, Sally. I’m glad we could help you out.” You smile.

“I don’t regret it at all...” Vera is too into the massage.

“Ooh! Unmasked buccaneer, and friendly Vera! I love you so much!” Sally will pamper you both as long as she can! “Just ask me for anything and I’ll do it!” The pirate eyes you on the lips with a certain look...

“You two broke them out of jail… Because they’re innocent…?” Vortexia is awestruck by this realization.

“An unthought-of spin.” Kushi isn’t harsh with criminals, but she expects them to be!

“Glad you realize it!” Crossbill smirks.

“Don’t forget that we’re only one type of innocent…” Beth coyly giggles…
