Second Mate's Log: Day 3
++++++++++++++++++++

We have been sailing on this ocean for what may have been months. I do not know, for I only just arrived in this body three days ago. Of all the people to project my consciousness into, apparently the only one suitable was a middle aged, inexperienced but competent second mate. And to think that I abandoned my wizard's tower for this! Fortunately, I suspect that none of the other passengers have caught on to my real identity, although there have been a few close calls. Just last night Pinterest Mom asked me where the mop was, and gave me a funny look when I told him it was "on the left side." With some quick thinking I blamed my inexperience, and then gave some competent orders in my middle-aged voice. Crisis averted.

That reminds me. I have yet to tell the crew of my premonition of disaster that brought me here in the first place. I debated long and hard about whether to attempt an astral projection simply for the sake of a boat. But I also had some heavy intense dreams about a boat sinking, over and over again, followed by a smoky, mushroom-shaped plume of ash. After several years of debating whether I should do something about it, I eventually flipped my staff. It came up heads, which is an unusual way for a staff to land, and I'm beginning to suspect that my apprentice Rufus may have secretly been loving with me in the process. But who am I to deny the tellings of a staff flip?

Some of the crew are giving me funny looks. But it is my penchant to scribe in my diary upon the deck, in full view of the open ocean. It calms my nerves, yes, ancient and mystical nerves that have been tempered in the fire of dragons and the blood of, uhm, dragons. One time I was in the middle of fighting a dragon, and I felt I had to fart really badly. My magical training and expertise reminded me that to pass gas while being assaulted by the burning demons of hell would be a fatal error. But a smart tactician defies convention. Just as the mighty beast swooped in for a chomp at my rump, I let rip a mighty gust that would have felled even the most deadly of ogres. A giant explosion furled out, engulfing and dare I say vaporizing my hated foe. It was a sight as impressive as its smell was rancid.

I close this entry with a few personal notes. One: be sure to tell the crew at some point about my premonitions of disaster befalling this ship. Two: stop eating so many beans, lest I spur the wrath of the attractive shipwrecked woman. Three: work on writing without speaking out loud.

I believe that you're not going to do it either.

P. Mom why would you shoot Inf, and would you do so immediately or would you let things develop?

The only person I know who has beef with the kid is Ecco, unreasonable as it may be.

Johan, I have 3 ideas in regards to this. A) We bury the man in the ocean. B) We investigate and suss out the murderous wretches amongst his accusers. C) We claim it a red herring and set off searching for a fresher fish.

You're going to have to explain what you mean by set-up. I'll take you for a walk while you explain.

I imagine there's 2 or 3 scum in there but not more, that would be too many.
