[Last time...]
“Do as I say if you want your companion to live!” Ripper replied in a desperate tone.
Ironshield turned towards Trayan and nodded as they both laid their muskets on the deck... (See: @joshuaslane/silver-adventures-captain-joshua-slane-20my25-drop-your-weapons )

[On La Serpent…bridge deck…]
As Lieutenant Ironshield and Able Seaman Trayan slowly laid their muskets down, Ripper pulled the musket out of Standing Officer-Carpenter Lupega’s left hand and tossed it over to Stank.
“Hold it on the bossman here and if he makes a move…put a ball in his head!” Ripper ordered glaring at Ironshield, “Fard, grab these muskets and get sliding down that grappling line!”
At this, Ironshield spoke up, “Hoo far dae ye think ye will git afair we gin ye doon oan th' open water?!”
Ripper spat on the deck and pulled the blade of his dagger a little tighter against Lupega’s neck, “As far as I need to dobber, cuz your friend here is comin’ with us!”
“Yoo’ll hang for thes when Keptin Slane catches you!”
Ripper chuckled, “The key word there dobber is- ‘catch’! Now step aside, both of you!”
Ironshield and Trayan stepped near the starboard bridge rail as Ripper walked Lupega over to the grappling line…
“Get climbin' boy!” He ordered and then called down to Fard in the dinghy, “If he tries to jump, shoot him in the back!”
Down below, Fard nodded as he held up a musket and cocked the hammer.
“We swatch forward tae celebratin' wi' ye tomorrow!” Lupega said sarcastically as he swung a leg over the rear rail and grabbed hold of the grappling line.
“Shut-up boy!” Ripper snapped as he shoved him down hard on the top of the head!
[On the Silverton...bridge deck...]
The captain squinted down hard on his longscope and his forehead wrinkled…
”Bludy heel! th' dinghy’s shovin' aff! 'Att makes nae fockin' sense!” He said angrily as he slapped the scope shut and turned to Standing Officer-Boatswain Bitcoinman, “Gang doon an' git me Groober! Ahh wants tae ken what’s happenin' ower thaur!”
“Ahh’m oan fire recently!” Bitcoinman said as he saluted.
“Aye, well… see 'att ye don’t burn-up afair gettin' 'att spyug up haur!” The captain replied with a raised eyebrow.
