[Video] The recruiting process
[A spunky tween-age raccoon holding a tiny "Marine" flag waves at you through the screen.]
G'day, you lot! To the uninitiated, I am Captain Marine, captain of the foundered S. S. Super Marine and upcoming S. S. Ultra Marine! Yes, the ship that brought me 'ere might not have 'eld up, but the S. S. Ultra Marine will not only be able to take you to other dimensions but take you back 'ere too! It's going to be ripper!
[She waves the flag excitedly. Go her!]
Now, I just need some blokes to 'elp me man it. It'll take some work but it'll surely be worth it! I'll even discount your first voyage to 'alf price! Rip snorter of a deal, yeah?
Who's first? Don't all send me a response at once; I'm only one sheila!
[To Tails]
Oi, Tails! You're appointed my official second First Mate! I've already recruited Blaze, but since you'll be 'elping me build it, you get a nice proper rank to go with it! No need to thank me. I know you know it'll be worth it!

Oh my gosh look at you, wow! I totally like the cut of your enthusiasm. It's like, almost infectious in a way. I mean, just look at me here! You've got me in all smiles.
[To prove her point in fact, she points a finger in the direction of her lips. Clearly there is a smile there for all to see.]
[Video]
Aw, glad to 'ear it, mate! You'd be perky too if you were going to captain the BEST SHIP IN THE UNIVERSE! It's going to cross dimensions and everything! You can be a member of my crew if you fancy it! Assuming the positions aren't full, of course.
[She scratched her chin and beamed a cocky smile back at her screen. This would go so much faster if she could get some real help!]
Re: [Video]
Oh my gosh, you don't have to ask me twice, I would so love to be part of the crew and travel to exotic destinations!
[A beat before she slides closer to the camera to ask the all important question.]
Quick question. You'd pay me for this line of work...right?
[What answer comes next will either make or break the deal.]
Re: [Video]
Eh, um... Yeah! We'll be rolling in funds when we get 'er off the ground! Watch the money pour in! ... It'll just be on a little delay, is all!
Re: [Video]
I gotcha. I'm a business woman myself and I know from experience fund don't immediately come right off the bat on startup. As long as you say we'll be rolling in dough later on, that suits me perfectly.
[She salutes with a smile]
I'm all yours Captain! If you need my credentials I can send you the list. You certainly won't be disappointed in my performance.
[It is a large list, almost a huge list of past, previous, and present jobs she's handled. You need a cook? She can cook. You need a navigator? She can read maps. And if you need music, why, she's got a guitar to play and the power to learn a sea shanty or two.]

[What a funny little Raccoon kid. And man, where was that accent from?
An Echidna should know this.]And a friend of Tails' too, huh? He should definitely sign on to be in your crew. Probably toughen him up a bit!

BLIMEY! NEVER BEEN ON A SHIP?! Mate, you don't know what you're missing! Ships can take you away from your droll, monotonous island 'ome!! There's no better feeling in the world!
[Aaand she has no idea Knuckles hails from an island. She just knows hers is sucktacular.]
no subject
Hey, my Island isn't either of those things. It's filled with ancient ruins and treasure and... uh... You should definitely never go there.
[Last thing he needed was kids running around touching all his stuff and maybe falling into death traps!]
Besides, it floats in the sky, so, you'd need a real light ship to get there.

[She does know there are ways back already, right?]
[Video]
Oi! G'day, Sonic! I'm building a RIPPER ship that'll not only take people across dimensions, but do it with STYLE!
Well... Tails doesn't know he's a member of my crew yet. This is my way of breaking it to 'im. But who wouldn't be wrapped to be a part of the most versatile and luxurious modes of transportation to ever exist? I know I would!

[He's finding this a little too amusing. Poor Tails.]
Some people here'll appreciate it. Me, I think I'll keep my feet on the ground for now, but good luck.
