That's the thing.

They won't know it's you that's done it.

So you can sing all you want.

Oh ja, can I sing right now?

... You don't need to ask me.

[He himself does not have a voice for singing. Far too nasally. So he not going to judge.

Much.]

No... I am too shy. Maybe other time? [ He nervously twirls his hair. ]

Uh.

Yeah. Sure?

[Why ask if you're not going to...

Then again, he's slowly starting to study and learn the Swede's behavior. It's bizarre but strangely fascinating.

Which is why he keeps tormenting himself by talking with him.]

I could just look away if... that makes you feel less shy.

[ He is odd, though not the strangest pirate on his ship! They also have Mr. Buttons, a nudist cannibal who talks to sea gulls. This little guy is mostly just dumb. ]

I will sing... [ There he goes. https://www.tiktok.com/@skeewee90/video/7122877076511706373?is_from_webapp=v1&item_id=7122877076511706373&web_id=6952927221162591750 Swede's singing is... a lot. It was considered so good Blackbeard himself complimented him but to a non-17th century pirate it is a lot. ]

[Considering Marik's only been able to enjoy outside music the past 4 years, it doesn't seem... all that terrible? Mind you, it's a little rough at first but he seems to get the hang of it once he's more comfortable?

Having no music talent himself, the Egyptian finds it impressive that the Swede's range seems to be of a falsetto tone. His voice would absolutely crack if he attempted it. He makes sure not to look directly at the man while he's singing, not wanting to disturb him.

And of course, Marik waits until Swede's finished before he speaks.]

You know, you're pretty good. I'm honestly impressed.

[ He is a falsetto, which is... kind of different, for a pirate? He instantly starts to blush. ] Oh... you are teasing me... [ He giggles. ]

Me, are you sure? [ He does, despite the usual shyness that follows after, show more confidence while singing. It is the only thing he can do without messing up. His entire brain is used for memorizing opera. All of it. ]

[It is but Marik's interacted with all sorts of weirdos in his universe. He offers a smile and nods.]

I'm sure. I wouldn't tease about something like that. If you weren't good, I'd tell you.

[He is not nice. ~~Even sounds a bit like him too.~~]

But you are. That's... opera, right? I'm not all that familiar with the genre myself but your voice fits it very well.

Thank youu.... singing makes me happy... [ It is a mystery how an illiterate pirate learned opera but... but he just does. For some reason he can sing Mozart. ]

[ He does think Marik is nice! But he's used to pirates, generally awful people. ]

[He's nicer than he used to be. No more crazy split personality. Still not great but he's working on it. Kind of.]

You're welcome. I certainly won't turn down the offer to hear more, especially if you enjoy doing it.

[What an odd pair these two are. Blondies got to stick together though!]

[ The Swede would try anyone's patience but he's so sweet it's hard to be very angry with him... even Marik probably can't keep it up. ]

Oh... I will try... I am shy though... [ He's a rare shy dumb blonde. It's a lot to be a dumb blonde and then also be painfully shy. Really inventing a new thing! ]

[Nope. He can't. Heck, Marik's already warmed up to him. Swede's shown him he's competent enough in other areas rather than smarts so it balances out. Not everyone can be evil geniuses and successful syndicate leaders.

(At least being shy adds to the charm when dealing with dumb blondes.)

Marik gives him a gentle pat on the shoulder.]

That's fine. Don't feel pressured to do it. Just whenever you want, okay?

J... ja... I will remember that... [ Standing up for himself is not a talent he has, he is so agreeable that he is always the pirate being singled out for 'target practice' or any other unsafe games they come up with. ]

Okej... [ He smiles toothily at him. ]

You are my friend?

Good.

[Maybe Marik can teach him a thing or two about subtle revenge.

... It's still weird hearing the term "friend" even if meant casually.]

Ah... Yeah. I guess so?
