Then I woke up again in the morning, and I saw that Bun was already awake; and then once Bun noticed that I was awake he said, “Hey, Shell!…

  Wanna head over to the meal room for some breakfast?…” and then I yawned and then said, “Sounds good to me!…” and so then Bun and I headed over to the meal room, and then we had soon picked out some food and drinks and were enjoying them in the meal room…; and then a capybara went over to us with her food, and then she said, “Hey, newbies!…

  I’m Bara!, and I hope that you’re enjoying life on the big blue sea so far!…” and then I said, “Hey, Bara!…

  Nice to meet you!…

  And I’m Shell, and this is Bun, and I think that we’re both enjoying life on the sea pretty well so far!…” and then Bun said, “We sure are!…

  I mean, being able to be on this ship just by doing a few chores is pretty sweet!; and we’ve gotta get to our destination somehow, and so this ship is an awesome way to get there!…” and then Bara said, “It’s nice to meet you 2 also!, and this ship certainly is an excellent one for reaching destinations!; though I don’t really have a destination in mind, and so I just sort of call this ship home without having a goal of this ship taking me to any specific place…” and then I said, “Well, I can certainly see why you’d want to just call this ship home, based on how nice it’s been on this ship for the 2 of us so far!…” and then Bun said, “Absolutely!…

  I mean, those pirates who Dasha was telling us about sound scary, but it sounds like this ship is so well defended that the pirates aren’t really much of a threat to any of us…” and then Bara said, “Oh yeah, those pirates are scary, for sure!; though it is indeed true that our defenses are too good for the pirates to get past!…

  For example, the last time that a bunch of pirates came sailing towards us they began shooting cannonballs at us!; and they probably thought that we’d be doomed! because of their heavy weaponry!…

  But then Dasha just activated the nearly indestructible net that this ship has so that it covered the ship completely!; and so that caused the cannonballs to just hit the nearly indestructible net, which meant that none of the cannonballs did any damage to us!…

  But the pirates weren’t very smart, and so they then began firing guns and arrows-that-had-fire-on-them towards the ship!; but, of course, the net just caused all of those attacks to fail too!…

  Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

  And so then the pirates brought their ship close to our ship, and they tried to board our ship; but they couldn’t get past the nearly indestructible net, and so they just kind of uselessly climbed around the net while looking for a way to get past it…; but then Dasha warned them that she would destroy their ship if they didn’t leave right away, and so then they all gave up and then got back into their ship and sailed away…

  But what the pirates were unaware of as they sailed away was that one of our crewmates named Crick (who’s a cricket) had boarded their ship while they’d been trying to board our ship, and Crick’s goal was to gather evidence in regards to the evil crimes that those pirates had committed so that he could turn that evidence over to law enforcement at some point and cause the pirates to be arrested and locked up in some dungeons!…; and it did indeed end up turning out that Crick was able to successfully expose the evil crimes of those pirates to some law enforcement officers, and the law enforcement officers were then able to arrest those pirates and lock them up in some dungeons!; and there were then trials for all of those pirates, and all of the juries in those trials determined that those pirates were guilty beyond a reasonable doubt!; and so that means that none of those pirates will be firing cannonballs at anybody anymore!…” and then Bun said, “Whoa!…

  What an epic triumph by Dasha and Crick and the others who were involved in bringing those pirates to justice!…” and then I said, “For sure!…

  Bravo! to Crick and Dasha and the others!…

  Though I am curious about why you described this ship’s defensive net as being nearly indestructible instead of describing it as being indestructible…

  I mean, using the word ‘nearly’ seems to suggest that the net wouldn’t necessarily be able to stop every attack that there is…” and then Bara said, “Well…

  As far as I know the net might actually be completely indestructible (since no attacks against it have ever succeeded); but it’s a big big multiverse that we live in, and it seems like it would be naive to assume that it’s completely indestructible; and so I call it nearly indestructible because I figure that in such a big big multiverse there’s probably some way that it could be damaged, though the odds that it’ll ever actually be damaged are probably like 0.00000000001% or something, ya know?…” and then Bun said, “Well…; I guess I wish that the net could definitely be completely indestructible, but if the odds are actually that low that it’ll ever be damaged then that’s pretty comforting!…” and then I said, “For sure!…

  I mean, we’re probably safer on this ship than we’d be on most places that are on the land!…” and then Bara said, “Absolutely!…” and then the 3 of us continued talking and eating and drinking for a while, and then once we were done eating and drinking and talking Bara said farewell to Bun and I (and then Bun and I said farewell to Bara); and then Bara went off to do whatever she was planning on doing, and then Bun and I headed off to go and do some chores like mopping and sweeping and doing dishes and whatnot…
