a devil to pay
"I owe you my life, darling!" the dread pirate captain of the Negotiator, Obi-Wan Kenobi, regains his precarious balance and shouts over his shoulder. Though his voice is lost to the wind, it isn't swept away so soon that his lovely husband doesn't hear him. Said husband, better known as imperial deserter and best shot over the nine seas, Cody Fett, rolls his eyes. "You owe me more than that!" he returns with equal volume. He fires off a series of shots from his beloved flintlock and watches as his targets from the imperial ship across the short sea fall one by one. He has a hand wrapped around the net of the crow's nest as he uses it to maneuver around incoming attacks, reloading his pistol in the process. Obi-Wan finds it quite hard to look away from the lovely distraction that's his thighs. "Stop talking and focus before you actually get yourself killed." Obi-Wan purses his lips and sidesteps a cannon ball as the hunk of metal hurtles through the air between them. "I have everything under control--" "Is that why you almost got shot?" Cody's eyes are wild. "Look out!" The man moves quickly and aims his flintlock. Knowing what's coming, Obi-Wan ducks as the bullet whizzes over his head and into the chest of the man audacious enough to try and approach Captain Obi-Wan Kenobi from behind. He doesn't even have to watch the body fall down to the main deck. He's sure his crew is paying enough attention to dodge the poor souls that think they have the skill to kill the most dashing and daring pirate on the continent. "Thank you again, darling." Obi-Wan's back on his feet in an instant, trying and failing to fight the smile that comes with watching his lovely husband in his element. "Thank me later," Cody says, raking his fingers through his sweat-slick hair, though one stubborn curl always finds a way to spring free. "Let's get rid of these fucking imps first." "Well said, love," Obi-Wan compliments as he slices his rapier through the air. "Now, I'm about to do something mental, so don't worry--"
