Ambient dialogue

Crafty Corsair (1): I smell something. Smells like gold.
Crafty Corsair (2): You can't smell gold! So...where is it?
Crafty Corsair (1): It's got to be hidden around here somewhere.
Crafty Corsair (2): Nothing glitters like gold. Except silver. And platinum...
Crafty Corsair (1): You keep dreamin'. I'll keep sniffin'.
Crafty Corsair (1): Finding treasure would be easier if we had a good map.
Crafty Corsair (2): X marks the spot!
Crafty Corsair (1): Wait! I got an idea! When we find our next treasure, we'll draw an X on it!
Crafty Corsair (2): What if it belongs to someone else?
Crafty Corsair (1): It'll have an X on it, so obviously, it'll be ours!
Crafty Corsair (2): Um—
Crafty Corsair (1): You just don't understand genius. X! Equals! Mine!
Crafty Corsair (2): I've drafted a pact for splitting loot.
Crafty Corsair (1): Bah! Another stupid contract? I need that like I need another tattoo.
Crafty Corsair (2): But you do need another tattoo!
Crafty Corsair (1): I'm still not giving you my treasure.
Crafty Corsair (1): Lion's Arch can't patrol the waves forever. Someday, Taidha Covington will return to the Captain's Council, and we'll all be heroes!
Crafty Corsair (2): Where'd you get that dumb idea? If you believe that, I've got a treasure map to sell you.
Crafty Corsair (1): I don't trust your fake treasure maps. I trust Taidha. I'd follow her through the depths of the Underworld!
Crafty Corsair (1): I need to steal something.
Crafty Corsair (2): Keep your hands off my loot.
Crafty Corsair (1): What kind of pirate do you take me for?
Crafty Corsair (1): I think I saw a Canthan dressed in black and sneakin' around. I hate those guys.
Crafty Corsair (2): That's just yer imagination again. No more grog for you!
Crafty Corsair Lackey: Cap'n, some of the men are conspiring against you. There's talk of mutiny!
Veteran Crafty Corsair Captain: Don't worry, lad. I've got another group secretly plotting against THEM! It's under control.
Crafty Corsair Lackey: But what if the crew attacks you?
Veteran Crafty Corsair Captain: I've got a countermove! It involves the cook, the crow's nest, and a crate of jalapeños.
Crafty Corsair Lackey: I don't un–I don't understand, sir.
Veteran Crafty Corsair Captain: No one does! No one but a genius like me! That's why it's insidious! And that's why I'm the captain.
Crafty Corsair Lackey: Cap'n! The men are getting restless. What's your plan?
Veteran Crafty Corsair Captain: Kidnapping, abduction, extortion. I can't decide. It's like multiple games of polymock, but with human lives.
Crafty Corsair Lackey: Awaiting your orders, sir.
Veteran Crafty Corsair Captain: Go swab a deck or something. I'm still scheming.
Crafty Corsair Lackey: Cap'n! The rigging on the mizzenmast is fouled! There's oakum on the fo'c'sle!
Veteran Crafty Corsair Captain: Yes, yes. Mizzenmast. Poop deck. Bilgewater. Whatever. I'm busy.
Crafty Corsair Lackey: But, sir! What should we do?
Veteran Crafty Corsair Captain: Fix it! I've got insidious schemes to develop.
Veteran Crafty Corsair Captain: He'll get the message. The governor will think it's a trap...and then–
Crafty Corsair Lackey: Sir? Sir! What's next?
Veteran Crafty Corsair Captain: ...and he'll think that WE know he knows! So we'll counter by–
Crafty Corsair Lackey: Awaiting your orders, sir!
Veteran Crafty Corsair Captain: You have your orders! I'm thinking of every complication, countermove, and variation!
Crafty Corsair Lackey: The courier is ready, sir. He needs to know the next part of your scheme.
Veteran Crafty Corsair Captain: The plan is simple. Seven more abductions, then a series of letters carried by four different messengers.
Crafty Corsair Lackey: Where am I sending him?
Veteran Crafty Corsair Captain: Ah, yes. Carry out segment seventeen of the Omega Initiative! And swab the deck, while you’re at it!
Crafty Corsair Lackey: Aye aye, sir. Segment seventeen engaged!
Veteran Crafty Corsair Captain: Harr. I love it when a plan comes together.
Crafty Corsair Lackey: Cap'n! What would you have me do next?
Veteran Crafty Corsair Captain: Take care of that boat-sailing thingamajib the first mate's blathering about. I've got another caper to mastermind!
