Just shut up and get on with it. Capt Neal abdicated after a long
and profitable reign, MC in the end refused the crown, Bobsprit
took it by default, but lacked, er, substance, you've just
quietly slipped into the position. You're there now. Think of
the job as a maidenly embrace, with perhaps a touch of iron in
her.
