This is the Conversation Forum for Wind force twelve abaft the Beam << The Bridge The Generator Room >> Subject: The Pelican's Nest Posted Nov 15, 2011 by paulh. I'm a fool, but please think of me as a jester This is a reply to this Posting   Posting 4961 Is Flint territorial? This is a pelican's nest. If Pele were here, and Flint came along, would they fight over this place? Just wondering. Does Flint have a place of his own? If not, would it help to try to set something up for him? Read the First Reply to this Posting Subject: The Pelican's Nest Posted Nov 15, 2011 by shagbark This is a reply to this Posting   Posting 4962 Flint does have a place, and if you look there you will see mari-rae was there trying to poison the birdseed. F70774?thread=130403&latest=1 Pele is one of the few inhabitants of this ship who never fights with flint. Flint accepts that this is Pele's place.

It all started when flint destroyed Mari-Raes hat. Returns to find a chick in her trap.* Hahahahahaha! good. Now I can use one of Flint's babies to try to catch him. *Pockets the chick and leaves a note for the parrot. To wit: I have one of your chick s. If you want it back you can find him/her up in the Crow's Nest with me. You owe me one straw hat. * There. That should do it. cross Reply :: flint hires peacedove to negotiate with the kidnapper :: Subject: Flints Cage Posted Jun 1, 2002 by Anonymouse This is a reply to this Posting.

Subject: The Pelican's Nest Posted Nov 17, 2011 by shagbark This is a reply to this Posting   Posting 4971 I was just looking at the backlog and in Sept. 2002 "one flew over the pelican's nest." That one was the Captain's parrot Flint. I have lost track of how many times since he has shown up there and how mari-rae has reacted <chuckle> The interaction between those two is kind of amusing actually.
