dear_mun | on muse's bounty being released

[Hey there, strangely familiar-looking freckled man! Have a very familiar kid staring (up, up, up, wow you're tall) at you with all the awe in the world.]

5... 550 million?!!

[Yep, just gaping at you for a minute there. A famous pirate with that much bounty would've seen so much of the world by now... And that's the dream right there, isn't it? One he and Ace had been working towards for the last five years, and one that Sabo held fast to as he sailed away from the docks of High Town.

Then he snaps out of it and grins widely.]

Wow, that's a big bounty, mister! You must've had lots of adventures, huh?

(ooc: h-hello. first time to rp birthday boy here, so nervous mun is nervous, but... uguu ;~; can't help it... )

[Why hello there ghost from the past child. Ace is going to stand here and stare with the widest possible eyes for a while.]

S... [Okay, give him some time here, he really can't believe he's seeing you. Sure, he's seen a lot of other dead people around here, but he NEVER thought anyone would take Sabo as a muse. His shock turns to pure joy as he grins his widest.]

SABO!!! [He is so, so tempted to give you a hug.]

[[ooc: Okay, you have all of my love right now, you seriously have no idea!! You'll do fine, I know it!]]

[O-oh. Oh, hey, the freakishly familiar man knows his name. Welp, considering he's practically being hunted down all over High Town, it'd be no surprise if strangers could recognize him by now. But waitaminute, this guy's a pirate though. The only pirate who knows him is Bluejam. Unless... Is he nakama of that bastard? Those assholes had Ace and Luffy!

Dammit. And he seems like a cool guy too...

With that, the kid's on guard now.] How'd you know my name? [pause, because you look so familiar it stings, and he frowns] Who are you?

(ooc: Eeee~ I hope so... >>; /still shaking from nerves)

[... uh oh. He should've expected him to act this way. Can't really blame him, but Sabo is Sabo, no two ways about it. He crouches down to meet him at eye level, still grinning like a dork. Or a man who hasn't seen his brother in more than ten years. It can really make your mood better.]

It's me! Ace!I know I look different, but I grew up. Damn, it's good to see you!

[[ooc: nooooo calm the nerves! D: you will be amazing.]]

[Okay. He expected many things. Like maybe the grabbing, the dragging away, and maybe some gun-pointing and sword-swinging. Y'know, typical Bluejam crew unpleasantness. Not that overly familiar grin on an overly familiar face.

Which claims to be Ace's.

Wat.

Still, Ace could probably see the growing recognition on his face, but Sabo's too cautious and smart to simply believe. He's been lied to countless of times before. So taking a step back for now with this face.]

T-that's not possible. I know I haven't seen my brothers for a while, but Ace wouldn't grow up ten years in just days! [He wants to believe you, bro, but c'mon. Besides, why would Ace do some growing up without him?]

(ooc: only slightly calmer now! o/ but you're such an awesome Ace, so might be flailing all over again in a while~ <3)

[He can tell he's starting to believe him, but he can't blame him for still being skeptical. He thinks for a sec on how to go about this. Well. He could always go for the plainly obvious one. And then explain it all.

Also, avert your eyes from the giant burn scar on his chest, okay okay.]

Hm... you, Luffy, and I became brothers by drinking sake, we kicked Porchemy's ass to save Luffy, your dad's a shitty noble, and you left the island after the fire in Grey Terminal. How am I doing so far?

[[ooc: lgkzgnzklg my Ace is not that good! >////< But your Sabo's great!]]

[Yeah, he's deliberately ignoring that scar the whole time because then he'd have been talking to a zombie. And now that he said he's Ace... Nope. Denying all possibilities.

Because this is Ace. Only his brothers know all of those stuff.

And he's Sabo. That's why the first thing he does after recovering from shock is sigh. Because clearly, this is a shenanigan of D proportions.] Really, really good... Now tell me, Ace. How'd you end up finding an eating a Devil Fruit while I'm gone? Geez, it's hard enough to fish Luffy out of the water, and now you too?! [This is the only logical explanation, okay.]

(ooc: ^////^; we'd never end this way! okay, let's put it this way: our muses are too awesome they lend us some. :) that works?)

[To hell with this, he is grabbing you and pulling you into a hug. Because holy shit, it's been for ever since he's seen you, and is damn ready to have a blast with you again. Best day ever.] Finally! You believe me!

[He breaks the hug, still wearing the biggest grin ever.] I got it after I left the island to become a pirate. Don't worry, I'm a lot more careful than Luffy.

[[ooc: oh... okay, yeah, that's a good compromise. |D]

Edited 2012-03-21 03:20 (UTC)

[Wow Ace, you've become so touchy-feely in your old age. Oh but hugs are good. So good that Sabo's almost tearing up, because Ace is here! That means they'd made it out. And Ace would never let anything happen to Luffy, so Luffy's probably safe too!

He sniffs sightly, but replies with the brightest smile.] Of course. Only you'd have a tacky taste in hats. [That's a lie. Your hat's awesome Ace, but not as cool as his.

But, fashion discussions later. To the cooler stuff!] Wait, so what else could it do? Could you make me as old as you? [Yep, thinking of a different DF rn and forgetting discrepancies man, that's so cool. Cooler than gomu, at least.]

(ooc: yay~ <3)

[He has not. You just died. And well. So did he. So there. :T

And he just gives an annoyed look, but he's totally smiling under it.] Ooooi, I'll have you know my hat is great.

[And now you get a slightly quizzical look. You confuzzle him, bro.] Wait, what are you talking about?

[[ooc: ~o~ Also, out of curiosity, are you looking for a game for Sabo? Or is he just for hanging out on memes/d_m/musebox/etc?]]

[Okay then. Touchy-feely in the afterlife. Geez, Ace. Why so picky? B| and he just grins at that annoyance~] Remember how it's me and Luffy who often said that line before? Never thought you'd get one yourself. We gave up convincing you ages ago!

[And you get an impatient huff.] Your Devil Fruit, Ace. You can grow up and down at will, can't you? Oh. Oh, but maybe you can't make other people do that. Huh. What's it even called?

[ooc: well... I'm looking, since he's such an active muse rn. But I'm hesitating. >> I haven't rp-ed in a looooong time, hence the excessive nervousness. >>;]

[He just leans back on his hands and laughs at that.] Well, what can I say! This one just called to me.

[He just blinks down at him.] Ah... that's not my Devil Fruit. I really am twenty-one. It's been ten years since the fire at the Grey Terminal. I do have one, though. The Mera Mera Fruit! I'm a fire human now.

[[ooc: okay, then I am obliged to ~~enable~~ inform you of

luceti (which has a huuuuuge OP cast) and

gargleblasted (which has a smaller OP cast). both have Ace and Luffy ~~never mind I play Ace at both~~, so you can check those out! but since you're nervous now, you can just take it slow. :3]]

Oh, a Logia! Heh, definitely cooler than Luffy's gomu...

[Trailing off now because the rest of Ace's words are finally hitting home.] Ten years, huh... That's... But it's just a few days ago. For me, I mean. [Wow, this place is confusing. Give him a few minutes here. The trauma of that fire's still fresh in his mind, and it's been ten years for Ace? Ok, putting on a brave face now and smile a very shaky smile.] So you and Luffy are really out in the sea now, huh? And you really became pirates! And with a big bounty too!

[Where did that leave him though? He wants to ask, but he isn't sure he'd like to know he's still stuck in the Goa Kingdom after ten years.]

(ooc: definitely have my eyes on those games for a while now! A-actually, Sabo's ready to app anywhere (I got all his info ready and stuff), as soon as his mun gets her shit together... ;~;)

Heheh, you think so?

[He sees Sabo drift off like that, and instantly gets worried. He doesn't seem to know he died. And like hell Ace wants to be the one to break it to him, he just can't crush him like that, it would hurt way too much for both of them. He wrap an arm around Sabo's shoulders for a half hug, and decides to tell him the important part.]

You got your freedom, Sabo. The day after the fire, you left to become a pirate. [And if Sabo asks, he'll just say he hasn't heard from you in the ten years. Crazy as it sounds, he'll stick with it.

[[ooc: well, the Luffy on your post is the one from GB! But just take your time, there's no rush. And you are on top of it, the app's all done? daaaaamn.]]

I... did? [He remembers escaping from his room, stealing a boat and sailing away from High Town. But there were people shouting at him, probably to come back, and there's a huge ship ahead of him. And that's it. ~~for now, sob~~] So I wasn't brought back after all.

[And since you saw the question coming, Sabo perks up, obviously excited because your life's difficult like that, Ace. ] Did I get a bounty too?! No, wait, I don't even care about bounty! Did I have lots of adventures? Was I able to finish my book? Wait! Don't tell me that, Ace. I shouldn't ask about my dream. Oh hey, then we must've met in the sea, right?!

[Sobs.]

(ooc: eee~ yeah, I know, I'm a creepy stalker like that~ <3 and what can I say... I have a lot of Sabo feels. ;o; and whoops edit, who messes up 'boat'?!)

Yep. [He refuses to say anymore. He'll lie if he has to. Ace just can't crush his brother's dream like that.

He lets out a chuckle.] I haven't heard about you getting a bounty... but who knows? You might have.

[Please don't hate him, Sabo.

[[ooc: LOL stalkers are good. and idk, "boat" can be easy to mess up.]]

[Wow. Be more excited, Ace. :| He deflates a little from that short response. He just stares at you for a few moments then sighs. You might not need to lie, bro. He's got a theory...] So you don't want to spoil the future for me, huh, Ace. I guess I understand... Fine, I'll just live it out myself once we get back.

[Never happening, bro.]

(ooc: uuguu >///>; see other entry for more stalkery goodness.)

[This really kills him, he wants to tell him he's a big famous pirate, living his dream.

But he barely made it out of the island before it was shot down.] Gotta live your own life, right?

[Good.]

[[ooc: 8D yaaaaaay]]

Yeah... We promised we'd meet each other out there in the sea. You and Luffy may have lived past that already, but I haven't. It's not right I get to know what kind of man I become in the future just by asking about it!

Okay! I won't ask about myself anymore. [Ok, srs time over. Just look at that innocent smile he's throwing at you~] So you have to tell me your adventures, Ace! What kind of crazy stunts did you pull to get 550 million, you bastard?! [Besides being the son of the Pirate King, he means.]

(ooc: /sob, missed this one earlier... ;^; )

Damn right, Sabo. [He just grins. Finally. That really, really killed him. And then Sabo got on an even better topic.

ADVENTUUUUUUUUUURES.] Well, when I first started out, I was just kicking ass left and right. But after a while, I joined Whtebeard's crew! And hell, I think that in itself made my bounty go up. And they made me the second commander!

[And sadly that is all I know of what he did. :|]

[[ooc: it's all good!]]

Oi, there's not enough details! And there's not even much bragging! Tch, when'd you get so stingy... [How can he boast of you in his book with that little info, bro?

Still, excitable little boy is excitable, and not giving up that easily.] Well, whatever! Tell me everything next time. What about Whitebeard?! Is he as awesome as they said he is? Does he really have a cool beard?!

[At least this one Ace can tell him plenty about? :D]

[He just laughs.] Sorry, sorry, but my mun says we haven't gotten enough information on me as a pirate.

[And watch his face light up to that of a million watts.] Pops is the BEST! He's really strong, and he's got a Devil Fruit, too! One to make earthquakes! Pops is reaaaaally tall, too! He's probably three time my height! Yeah, his beard's pretty damn epic, too! And he drinks even more than Shanks, too! You could never win a drinking contest against him!

[Do you want him to tl;dr about how awesome his daddy is...]

E-earthquakes?!! He can make earthquakes?! And three times taller... [brb, looking up past your head, estimating...... whoa.] Man, and I thought he couldn't be cooler. I wish I could meet him too one day! So what else--

Wait, you said Shanks. You mean Luffy's Shanks? Have you met him?

[tl;dr later, bro, just got sidetracked. Nope, Sabo has no idea Shanks is a Yonkou like Whitebeard. idk why maybe your oyaji's more famous? >>;]

Yeah! He's the est pirate ever! [He just laughs.] Yeah, he's pretty damn big. It'd be great if you could meet him, too!

[He nods.] Yep, thanked him and everything for saving Luffy's ass way back when.

[So, remember that face Makino made when you asked her to teach you manners? Sabo's making that same expression, complete with the hand to chin motion.]

Oh...? That's surprising.
