When it came down to it, Vera realized she still had a LOT to learn for when it came to pirate lingo. She knew 'ahoy, matey, bouey and buried treasure' and other than that she was kind of at a loss. Like... Walk the plank was a common term, but what did that MEAN? Why was a piece of wood so SCARY? These are things she probably should have asked Sia, but she'd prefer to look it up because she didn't want to disappoint her friend by not being fully knowledgeable on something that was her THING!

Maybe the library would have some books to help? She made note to put that higher on her exploration list and ask Professor Eureka for assistance. With a name like that, she could definitely help her find it!

"There is quite the fleet to inspect." Even if all the boats looked pretty much the same. Did any of them have any holes or anything?

V turned towards the doors hearing her brother, and her face split into a grin that would have given the Cheshire cat a run for his money. Vasco? LOUD? That must have meant she was getting under his skin. Which if he wanted to complain, she would remind him he HAD challenged that she couldn't be as annoying from a separate house. She felt like she was doing quite well exceeding his expectations. She hoped there was an OWL exam later about how to best annoy people. She would DEFINITELY get an O on that. "They can let themselves in. He probably thinks we have some prank planned." Which sometimes, it was nice to not.

Always had to keep him on his toes for a surprise. "HI BIRDBRAIN! AND LOOGIE IF YOU'RE THERE. COME ON IN!" She called back, crossing her arms over her chest and watching the door.
