is it better that he didn't get this memory when he was 9, who can say

[belowaverage]

Who else remembers historical figures in their past lives, except they're weird?

I'm not talking 'oh I met Lincoln once and he was a little more casual than history books make him out to be' or whatever. I'm talking about 'Francis Drake was a woman with gigantic breasts' kind of weird.

That's not a hypothetical example.

You're not wrong, but past me thought she was embarrassing as hell.

[me_matey]

Embarrassing how? It's not like you were the one with boobs.

[belowaverage]

She kept scruffing my hair like she was my weird drunk aunt or something.

[me_matey]

She sounds cooler the more you describe her.

[belowaverage]

Not that you're biased towards pirates or anything.

[me_matey]

Guilty as charged, but also unashamed. Pirates are the best. I don't make the rules.

[belowaverage]

I can't even argue with that.

[me_matey]

See, you know better. That's why you're my favorite cabin boy.

[belowaverage]

I'm your only cabin boy.

[me_matey]

Also the only boy on the crew.

[belowaverage]

It's an honor, I guess?

[me_matey]

Considering the other me was way more stern about that rule? Yeah. You should be.

[belowaverage]

Thank you for your mercy, captain.
