"Wonderful" thread topic!
So...who could be my victim on this thread, lol??? I think I will pick on LEO for the moment (sorry mate, lol).

MAY 20, 2017.
The day was quite. Too quite &...the sea was calm ~
*This 16th day of May in the year of our Lord 2017 - Leo has spent the majority of this day planning yet another SVS/privateering event (this one being SVS event #1716). However, Leo had finally had enough. Avast! He was calling it quits.
Something particular strange that day was going to frustrate Leo which not even he himself could have anticipated.
*It was...well...It was something within the sea.
The Kraken ye say? Hmmm....How about sea turtles? The Lochness Monster? Giant lobster perhaps?
WHO KNOWS...
A few months earlier...Disney had planned to launch a specific type of sea creature on POTCO. "Everyone" was clueless & unaware. Aye. Even Leo. (The 'Grog Blog' even failed to heed a warning to pirates playing test & inadvertently instead launched this sea creature onto the 'live' version of POTCO).
Anyway...
...After about 30 minutes into this SVS event ...Leo's infamous ship, GOLDEN LION, made a tactical manuever towards the east & kept both it's port & starboard side parallel between Isla de Avaricia & Ile D'Etable De Porc. As Captain, a decision was made to drop anchor & make haste for both ammo & ship repairs.
Suddenly, a tremendous, ''THUMP" was both felt & heard! It was coming from underneath the hull of the ship...
As Leo looked to investigate with his better eye, a roaring crosswind swooped down upon the ship & as well as the crew causing Leo's trusted hat to fall away from his hat & into the abyss of the sea.
Leo fearlessly peered over the edge of the railing...leaned forward & stretched his body as far as he could until the upper markings of the hull of his ship were sighted. Leo could see nothing abnormally wrong & was just about to pull himself back up from the railing when, "SMACK!!!" - a mermaid had swooped herself high out of the water & KISSED Leo on his cheek.
Needless to say...Leo was so embarrassed by this particular moment that he vowed to never do another SVS event again &...became a "land lubber" & a mute
.
