'''Doog''': Ketler, what did you do to the keel?

'''Ketler''': Hmm? Oh, John? I awakened him about a week ago.

'''Doog''': No, I know that, but what did you do to him recently?

'''Ketler''': Nothing, *looks as innocent as possible*

'''Doog''': Ketler, if you don't tell me, I'll drop a hint to the captain about your illicit Jaela doll collection.

'''Ketler''': I... uh... gave him a few enhancements.

'''Doog''': What kind of enhancements?

'''Ketler''': Well... Detect Evil for one, Shocking grasp and a few other things. Why are you so, ah... tetchy about this?

'''Doog''': Cuz I had to talk the keel out of nuking the ship. You should remove some of those enhancements.

'''Ketler''': Mmm... the shocking grasp probably was a bit excessive.

----
'''John''': HEY! Don't come any closer man! I'll do it!

'''Michael''': Do what?

'''John''': I can do it! I'll nuke the ship, you evil person!

'''Michael''': Whoa there, buckshot, why would you do that?

'''John''': The ship is full of evil! Lisa says that all corruption should be smote.

'''Michael''': Yeah, well, Lisa is a bit of an extremist. 

'''John''': What do you mean?

'''Michael''': She was thrown out of her order for being too militant and violent.

'''John''': She was?

'''Michael''': Don't listen to her too seriously. Remember there are other ways to deal with evil. 

'''John''': There are?

'''Michael''': Yeah, more peaceful ways, like lecturing people on how to change their evil habits. 

'''John''': I'll have to think on that.

'''Michael''': Okay.

----
'''Doog''': Michael, did you actually believe any of that?

'''Michael''': Nope, but I still did an evil thing.

'''Doog''': Are you kidding me? You turned the keel into Gandhi!

'''Michael''': Yeah, but do you want to be lectured by him while you're hanging there?

'''Doog''': Point taken.

----
'''Random Redshirt''': NOOoooo!! Not the keel!!!!

'''John''': You know, you really should think of changing your outlook. If you had a more positive view on the world...

'''Redshirt''': GAH! THE SPIKES AUGH!!!

'''John''': ... and Cool Cthulhu told me that by sharing your feelings with those you are opposed to...

'''Jarlot''': We are headed over mountains now! Why don’t I fly a little lower 

'''Redshirt''': GAHALRLBLELBLE

'''John''':  ...if we just learn to work together Eberron can be a utopia for all...

'''Redshirt''': HURK! BLURKABL!

'''Michael''': A keelhauling with a lecture. Wow, this is the evilest thing I have done that I can remember. This calls for a victory drink!

----
'''Michael''': The... hell?

'''White-wearing Captain Jarlot''': We've all decided to convert to goodness and purity because of the light of our holy keel's teachings.

'''Ketler''' covered in flowers: Groovy, man! Peace out.

'''Pholly''': I am overwhelmed with joy to my fellow man.

'''V''': *has converted his grinning death mask to general good cheer* I no longer will engage in vengeance or violence.

'''Stupid''': I like plow shears.

'''Michael''': NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(Runs into the wall and leaves a Michael traced hole in it)

'''Ketler''': Wow, that worked better than I thought.

'''Jarlot''': I was hoping he'd jump overboard.

'''Ketler''': That will teach him to go beyond our crew charter.

'''Jarlot''': Kill, maim, and plunder but NEVER do you lecture a fellow pirate.

----
'''Cool Cthulhu''': Hey John!

'''John''' : Yes, brother?

'''Cool Cthulhu''': Have you reached enlightenment yet?

'''John''': No, brother, I have not, nor ever will. What is enlightenment?

'''Cool Cthulhu''': I don't know. I think there's a dictionary somewhere around here...

'''John''': I sincerely doubt that would help you find Enlightenment.

'''Cool Cthulhu''': Well damn, that's pretty enlightened of you! You know how to find enlightenment, so you must be enlightened! I'm going to name you Buddhasiddharthatheresagandhi. 

'''John''': My thanks. But my curiosity is aroused; what does it mean? 

'''Cool Cthulhu''': It means "Enlightened one"

'''John''': You are far too kind... Honestly, though, it is a bit hard on the tongue.

'''Cool Cthulhu''': Mmm... well it is in Xoriat, I suppose it could be shortened to "Buddha" without losing too much meaning...
