I don't think you're alone in that, [he says, with a bit of a sympathetic expression. Most people probably haven't dealt with that sort of thing -- and he can't say he's an expert, either. But if the Midnight Channel had something like that behind it, then surely it's a possibility for this place, too.

It's definitely something he's going to have to think about, at any rate.]

A pirate ship? [Yu sort of blurts the question out with more surprise in his expression than he had intended. It's not totally unexpected, with how at-home she looks on the water, he guesses -- but she certainly doesn't look like any pirate he's ever seen.]

... You're right about that. If I'm traveling, I usually go by train or plane. [Some humor makes it into his expression as he adds,] Can't say I've met many pirates, either.
