[Pick your poison.]

1. Hey, this is Archer. How are you doing? [A pause.] Great, glad to hear it! Also glad to hear you're talking to an automated message. HAHA, SUCKER! Leave one!

--------------------------------------------

2. Holy shit, did you just see that?! [Paaaaaaaause.] That was you falling for the answering machine trick again! God, when you are going to learn?

--------------------------------------------

3. Welcome to Ask Archer, where you can ask me what you want and I'll answer your question in public and embarrass you in front of everyone. Maybe you'll learn something. Leave it.

[While Hiro's off messing around with the Dullahan, he's also taken the time to coordinate a delivery of a few scrolls of paper to Archer. Three sets of blueprints for the Sterling Bullet.

The basic idea in all three prints is the same. The boat's still following the same basic layout of the prints Archer sent him a week ago but he's drawn out where he can cut down on the boat's construction to make it more sleek and easier to navigate through water. The first of the plans just shows an upscaled version of the original prints along with indications for more rooms below deck and reinforcements in the masts. The second set of plans builds on the first but also includes a separated portion of the deck in which Hiro's written out "CATAPULTS FOR MAGIC/SPELL BOMBS. I'm working on how to develop a cannon." And the third set of plans builds on the first two but there's another blocked off section below deck and the indication that there's a compartment in the side of the ship that will open, along with a note that simply says "FLIGHT DECK FOR CLEGS."

With these plans is a note in his scratchy handwriting.]

I hate the Drabwurld and its limitations. Utilize runic magic to protect the ship itself so that it doesn't go down in its first hit. There are plenty of protection runes out there. With the catapults you can write most of the runes on them and when you need to fire them just draw the final brush stroke. Talk to Clarke Griffin, she's been teaching some of us how to use runic magic. Or you can pay her/me to do it for you. Cleg-wise, you need an escape route. Stables located very, very far away from the rest of your rooms for weaponry, kitchens, and uh, "entertainment." -HH

[...eh, he tried. What do you want from him Archer he's 15 and the Drabwurld won't let him really customize things yet. Sorry man.]

Already set on the runes. Even got one from a god. Holy shit, yes I'm awesome.

Anyway, it's a rune that will make wind always be in the ship's favor. Had to make a few compromises for it but it was worth it. Buying up some other things from a certain someone.

Also get me the recipe for Greek Fire. We're going to wreck some shit.

A god? The Outsider? Or one of the other gods running around here? Whatever it doesn't matter, I guess that's good enough. Greek Fire. Seriously? ...I'll see if I can find anything out.

Yeah, the whale guy. He's pretty cool.

Yeah, you do realize that Greek Fire pretty much was the weapon that ruled the waves for a few hundred years? People will never know what hit them.

I know what Greek Fire is, dude. With certain limitations in this place we're gonna have to do some improvising. But okay. I'll see what I can figure out. I'll let you know if I get any leads soon.
