well this is a depressing excuse for a party
[Mid-day on Sunday, Heather goes around and slips notes under dressing room doors.
If you don't want to be alone today, there will be snacks and people in the Ballroom today
--Heather
She's even dotted every i with a little heart! How cute.
The dining hall is a way better location for a party (or whatever this is) with its close proximity to the kitchen, and more intimate space- but Heather doesn't want to be anywhere near that place. Not for a while, at least. True to her word, Heather's brought snacks- finger sandwiches, a few bags of chips, and a big pitcher of lemonade. There isn't much else set up, but the piano is still there, should anyone want to play.]

[That's probably harsh, but there's a reason for asking, really. It's not anything personal, at least.]

Not even then. I adore my crew - they are my family, or the closest I've had to one in a very long time - but there are things a man simply cannot do.
[...And then he lowers his voice to a stage whisper, which is apparently the most quiet he can manage:] Don't go giving the Balladeer's bosses any ideas!

He'll drop his voice at that at least, even if he thinks it's kind of pointless.]
It's probably not anything they haven't already thought of.
[...Anyway, moving right along.]
Just wanting to know if there's something I should be looking out for. Nothing personal.

No, no, I understand. I've taken no offense at it!

Good man, good man. But you know what, this is getting a bit heavy and you wanted this little shindig to be anything but - tell me something about this 'family' of yours, I'm curious.
[He's really not, but that's beside the point.]

[...how did he manage to get a crew full of orphans anyway, it's a mystery]
The newest member of our band, Frederic, just reached the end of his apprenticeship! He's now a full-fledged pirate! Well, he will be once I return, at least. I've no doubt that everyone will be very lost without my guidance, but they shall persevere!

Pirates have apprenticeships.
