✨ you only get one chance...

[liltuna]

THE FIRST IMPRESSION MEME   You only get once chance to put your best foot forward. Screw that up, and you'll be forever seared in someone's mind as the person who had spinach in their teeth, or worse! ✨HOW TO PLAY 1. Drop a top-level! 2. If you have previous CR with someone, you'll have to let them know what your first-impression of them was. If this is your first time meeting, you'll be compelled to share what kind of vibe they give off. It's okay to be honest! Are they gross? Do they seem approachable? Do you find them incredibly hot?  3. Find out if your first impression was correct! Maybe that strange loner actually has a heart of gold? You'll never know unless you talk to them!

No... I thought... AAAH, WHY THIS MAN IS SO TALL? But... also... I wanted to be your friend. [ He was confused by the height at first but Wee John is just as tall, just a lot bigger all around. So he is used to the height! ]

[bit_awkward]

Makes sense. I think that's most peoples knee jerk response.

[Yeah, it's kinda hard to miss! Its funny how it usually goes both ways like with Wee John, but not for this loser. Gabriel lives with everything being somehow too large or small all at the same time. Big and tall does not work for him. There's no happy middle ground.]

Well I'm glad you thought we could be friends, as we are.

It is just sad... that we can't share clothes. [ The Swede is a little more muscular but he's still pretty skinny so it would fit! But... but not length-wise... ]

Ja... I want to be friends. You are like my crewmates. [ He feels comfortable around him. Gabriel isn't one of those scary, rich people... though Swede honestly likes them as well because they could maybe give him some treats. The only people he really doesn't like is those English people that like to hang you. B... because hanging looks like it hurts. ]

Well you still fit. At least in tops and sweatpants. Though sweatpants are a truly universal size. Normally. [But he is probably walking on that backs of those pants he gave him. Something tells Gabe it would only be a matter of time before they're ruined anyway.]

Well I'm glad I remind you of your crewmates, I suppose. Though I still can't tell if that's bad or god.[You have to admit Swede there is a lot of back and forth! Thankfully as bad as this day and age is he's probably unlikely to get hanged. At least, Gabe certainly hopes so!]

[ Oh... it's... bad and good. It means Swede feels comfortable around him but probably that Gabe is a little weird! After all, this isn't the most normal pirate crew and pirates in general are pretty strange. But coming from Swede, it is meant as a compliment. ]

Ja... the pants are a little big but I loff big pants. [ His original ones were also three sizes too big. ] Do you want my old pants?

[ They're burlap... ]

[bit_awkward]

[Thats very true. He’s almost scared to meet any of the others. Hopefully they don’t all start showing up at Gabes flat. Like stray cats…]

Naw, I think I’m alright. I’ve got plenty of pants my friend.

[He can only imagine the state of those pants. He’ll leave it for now.]

[ourlittlenordicangel]

[ Ja, it is a very good thing the Swede has a few clean things to wear now! The others are a mixed group, you can get very sweet guys or you can get someone who'll randomly stab you or cuss you out. This is the low maintenance one but Gabe decided to NOT neglect him so now he has some work babysitting the Swede... but he could technically just plop him in a corner with a broom for six hours. ]

You have a lot of nice clothes... and things... I am happy you are sharing them all with- with me.

[bit_awkward]

I do what I can with what I have.

[No stabbing!

And he knew he dug that hole when he started but here he is. Crushing the Swede with TLC. He wont be a shoeless wanderer on Gabe's watch. Even if it does mean giving him endless tasks.

I mean there always dust shields to put on records. He hates that task and something tells him the other would somehow love it.]

[ourlittlenordicangel]

[ Oh... he'd do that for days. He loves to polish canonballs and swab the deck. Repetitive, simple work is a favorite for Swede. He'd probably love to vacuum as well, or he'd be scared of the noise, that can go both ways. ] If... my crewmates show up, they live here as well?

[ ... ...no Swede. ]
