[Ah, but here, the morons do what she tells them!! And she can tell them to fuck off when she's tired of it!

Because what do you know, the guy goes off and not only gets himself a funny drink, but brings her another of what she's drinking! Which is a blue hawaii in a cocktail glass (not to be confused with the blue hawaiian that Nobuanga brought back), complete with a chunk of pineapple and another little umbrella.

This guy may be a moron, but it seems he's the rare moron who can be entertaining to have around.]

[April finishes off the last of their glass, puts it on the nearby countertop and turns their chair to face the guy actually kneeling in front of her. Their original intention was to have him sit beside them and drink and chat like a couple of Royal Caribbean Diamond Member fucks, and there's still a part of them that loves their own plans enough to want to demand the guy get up and take a proper seat.

The rest of April soundly vetos this, because hello? Look at this?? Kneeling and respect from a clueless moron asking questions!! This is truly the ideal vacation. April's going to have to send this captain guy an edible arrangement or something.

After they defuse this first speedbump.]


Relax, that happens when you eat or drink a lot of something icy real quick. Shove your tongue against the roof of your mouth, it should pass.

[And while they wait for him to take care of that, they lean back in their chair and cross their legs.] Anyway, polar bears are a little taller than a horse on all fours, but they can stand up on their hind legs if they want, that's about... I think that gets to be about three metres of bear looming over you if you're real unlucky?

The encounters are a mix of several factors, some of it is because of humans moving further north, but it's also scarcity caused by warming global temperature because they use the pack ice to hunt. So sometimes while scavenging they end up brushing up into human settlements. As giant goddamn bears, they're not too concerned with something your size.

[And if Nobuanga thought she didn't notice his reaction earlier:] You won't run into any on here, they wouldn't be able to get onto the ship and the waters are too warm for 'em out here anyway.

[It's not about the much more interesting parts of April's job and life, but the true facts about the polar bears are a good, if you'll pardon them, way to break the ice.]
