Trousers, boots to the knee if I'm not mistaken, and I can't imagine the reasoning behind the belts other than they [ are entirely for the drama of it all ] serve some utility which I have yet to require myself. Anne Bonny belts her coat closed, but luckily for you she doesn't use an overly elaborate item to do so.

[As if writing all of this down, which she absolutely is—]

Trousers, knee boots, belted coat... How long is the coat, would you say?

[hornswoggle]

Calf-length, or so. You'll want something with large cuffs. Perhaps the Seneschal has something in you can borrow.

[ just drag salvio into this, why not ]

Ah! A brilliant suggestion, Captain. I'll review the records directly; there must be something that can be borrowed. Now, as a last question - as we're all meant to be wearing some kind of mask or paint for the holiday, is there a particular design you think the lady might prefer? Is a skull too obvious, do you think?

A bandanna. Draw it up over your nose and mouth.

[ honestly easier than the face paint he'd seen vane wear and assumed anne must have imitated. ]

[A moment's pause. Presumably this too is being recorded.]

I must thank you for your time, Captain Silver. This has been incredibly productive.

I'm looking forward to seeing the finished version.

[ surprise, anne. ]
