[video] -- 2 things: Trick or Treating and 8 more commander drawings

First order of business, the trolls don't have Halloween in their world. Thus I'm inviting any of you who would find it fun to come trick or treating. That said, I suggest everyone try to find treats for them unless you want to experience the full weight of troll tricks. Eridan, Karkat, Tavros, Sabo, Vriska, Gamzee, and anyone else under 18 who wants to go trick or treating; you need a costume. If you want ideas, ask me or ask around for suggestions.

Also these are the remaining commander drawings I promised Hong Kong a while ago.

[ He'll take a seat now, looking back and forth between Marco and Japan. ] Hey, you never know, right?

[ It was just his way of saying he was glad Japan's here. Augh, England's tsundere rubbed off on him!! ]

Hah. If you say so, eh? [Gestures for them to take a seat and gets ready to pour tea.]

[And that is why Japan chuckled. Oh Hong Kong. He watches Marco a bit fondly though and then decides to speak.]

Marco and Hong Kong-kun seem to speak quite often...

[ He does kinda break his own trope though, because he doesn't get flustered when he's called on this kind of stuff. Well, not all the time. ~~Ask Marco.~~ ]

Yeah, I'd say we do. I bug him about stuff sometimes.

Really? I thought I was the one bugging you about things.

...The "bugging" is not over too strange of a topic, is it? [EYES BOTH OF THEM if any embarrassed stories involving him are exchanged he will flick you people]

No way. Totally normal stuff. [ Straight face. ] Right, Marco?

[Nods.] Completely normal. Why, is there something interesting I should be asking about?

[EYES YOU BOTH SUSPICIOUSLY]

...Nothing at all.

Oh, there's plenty of stuff. But there's etiquette to follow if we're gonna talk about those topics.

[ Lineface til the end of time. ]

I'll wait until it becomes relevant.

...

[LMFAO YOU TWO TOGETHER IS LIKE. crazy. sideglance and sips tea.]

I'm sure it won't be long. [ Also sips his tea. ] With how things are going and all.

[ Come on, Japan. This is the best combo ever! :D ]

You think so? How exciting.

Hah, what is that supposed to mean? [stares at Hong Kong]

Hong Kong-kun had things to say, didn't he? Please go on.

It's a secret between brother-in-laws. [ Again, lineface eternity. ]

But yeah, I was gonna talk about pirates.

[Grins in return and nods.]

I'm very curious about pirates, aye.

[:T brother in laws... gkjdsdkfgj

he'll just lean back in his seat on the couch and wait]

Can't imagine why.

[ To Japan: ] I told him a little about your pirates. But I don't think I did a good job, so you should tell it better. [ He leans back, contemplating his tea for a second. ]

Eh, I liked that story, but I'm still curious as to Hong Kong's pirates.

Please do not try to avoid the attention in such a way, Hong Kong-kun. I would like to hear as well. [amused over here]

Hey, I'm not dodging. [ That's your job, bro!! ] Anyway, my pirates. Okay, well, I guess Jēung Bóu Jái's a good story. His father was one of the Tanka, who're called "boat people" sometimes. They mostly make their living by fishing and live in boats off-shore by some of my islands. In China, too, but this is my story, so we're in Hong Kong now.

[ He pauses a second. ] When Jēung was 15, he was kidnapped by pirates. Jihng Yāt was their captain and he ran his outfit with his wife, Jihng Sih. She's a whole other story, because once Jihng Yāt died, she took over for him. At one point she had 1800 ships and 80,000 pirates following her. She even went after England and Portugal, not to mention the Qing.

She and her husband adopted Jēung, although later on when her husband died, Jihng Sih married Jēung. [ Hey, don't ask him. ] She ended up living way longer than he did, but they both eventually capitulated to the government and he got a job as a colonel in Penghu. That's like, off the coast of Taiwan. She did the same thing, kept all her loot, and opened a gambling house.

"And then they lived happily ever after."

1800 ships?! Seriously?? And people thought my Pops had a giant crew...

So she married her own son? [He's heard weirder. Maybe. But yes, he approves of this awesome story.]

Hahhh. I remember mention of this pirate at some point, surely... Cheung Po Tsai... [Which is Jēung Bóu Jái right oh god chinese, can I just say チョン・ポーチャイ...]

Yeah, that's right, Cheung Po Tsai. [ He looks to Marco again. ] Some smaller groups kinda banded together until they had an organization that big.

[ He shrugs a little. ] I'm kinda infamous for pirates. [ Kinda mostly pretty much... in bad ways, yeah. But shh. ]
