Smoker grunted, taking the long strides Tashigi usually had to almost jog to keep up with. "They think the repairs will take until December so unfortunately we'll be here a while." Smoker gestured off into the distance slightly towards the train station. "I'll be taking the train in about a week or so over to St. Poplar for a day or two. You're more than welcome to come but you don't have to. Any pirates I find there," yes it was definitely so he could go beat up pirates. And ride the train. "I can deal with alone but Karen, my ensign, Allen, Nataku and a few others will be joining." He rubbed his temples, "I'll have to check on Lavi."
He paused then suddenly remembering, "Lavi is the red-haired guy with an eyepatch. He's my intelligence officer, a bookman in his world -- I have no idea if they have those in yours or not, and you'll want to check in with him. He was around while Lupin stole the marine ship and any information he can get he can use to help you. Of my crew he knows the most about the other country people and is in charge of their histories so he could help you with that too."
They walked over one of the arched bridges and Smoker mentally ticked off a checklist in his head. "Near the end of November around the 28th we'll be dealing with promotions. There probably won't be too many but there's a formal, I don't make anyone not getting promoted come but again, you're welcome to. Aside from that, not much is scheduled while we're here but every day there will be exercise and training drills at 9 am and 3 pm. No sailing training right now so just rifles, swords, and calisthenics, I'm sure you've been through it all before."
ooc: wow sorry for long tag @_@
