Heroism, Humanism & Hijinks: Literature in Action, Week 11, Period 5 (Danger Shop)

[OOC: Summary for Treasure Island.]

When the students entered the Danger Shop, they would have found themselves on the deck of a large sailing ship. There was only a slight rolling of the ship, but people with sensitive stomachs might have felt a little bit queasy.

"Welcome to the Hispaniola. Captain Flint couldn't make it, but this is an approximation of his ship. We're going treasure hunting, but in order to understand what our protagonists had to do before they could get on with the story, we'll be planning our own venture. Then you can play pirates."

Molly brandished her hook. "Ye' dare to doubt the word of Mad Dog Molly? I'll use yer guts fer garters!"

Dawn made an unpiratical ewwww face. "Mad Dog, is it now? Ye couldn't sail this brig in a bathtub!"

Molly barely stifled a laugh before putting on a confused face. "Bathtub? What's that?"

"It's the place where yer ripe stench goes ta' die!" Dawn snickered.

Molly made a show of sniffing herself. "Why would I be wanting to get rid of my 'ripe stench'? I been cultivatin' it fer years!"

"It be scarin' the crew," Dawn shot a look around at the rest of the assembled class and nodded triumphantly. "Not t' mention the complaints from th' dolphins."

"Pah!" Molly waved a hand. "If they be not man enough to handle me aroma, they be not man enough to be on Mad Dog Molly's crew!"

Dawn snickered again and adjusted her bandana. "Yer daft. O'course th' dolphins ain't men."

"Pfff. What de I care fer a bunch of fish?"

"Dolphins is good luck. Ye'd know that if'n ye weren't a babe on the seas!"

"They's good luck, but I don't go sniffin' 'em. They should do me the same courtesy," 'Mad Dog' Molly said with an offended sniff.
