mmmaybe looking for a home...

[flagrate]

O-oi. Are you sure you should be doing this if canon-reviewing makes you cry? I miss the old man too, but—

Yeah, I know that's not all of what makes it bad. I wasn't going to mention the other part.

omg I could not resist tagging with mama

[if_its_a_boy]

I believe that time is for hard for many of us.

omg mama *^*

[flagrate]

... I'm sorry that it's a hard time.

yesss family time

[if_its_a_boy]

You have nothing to apologize for, Ace. No one hates you for it.

lksjdf i don't have the icons for this man /hunts for more

[flagrate]

[ wow way to go for the verbal gut punch, mom ;; ]

I'm glad. But I wouldn't be surprised if some of them were angry. [ since thing started off as a rescue mission and he's got those self-esteem issues ]

oh, I'm armed for that.

[if_its_a_boy]

[ooc: here. or here. Not kidding when I said I was armed. |D;;]

[And mama is just going to hold her arms open for a hug.] I don't think they would be angry at you, Ace.

aaaah ty ty!!

[flagrate]

[ mama ;; ace just sorts of wilts into her arms ]

They came all that way... and I still—

np np!

[if_its_a_boy]

[She'll just hug him back tightly, then.]

Ace... you did exactly what they were doing. Trying to protect family. We're angry at the people who harmed you. Akainu, Blackbeard... it's them everyone is angry at.

[flagrate]

Nn, okay. [ doesn't want to argue with mama. subject change time. ] I didn't expect to see you in a place like this.

[if_its_a_boy]

[She smiles brightly at him.] Neither did I. But I'm rather glad to be here.

[flagrate]

I'm glad you're here too.

[if_its_a_boy]

I'll stay for as long as I can, then. And if you ever need me, just call.

[straw_hat]

AAAAAAAAACE! [Here, have a bro.] Shishishi, it's been a while since I've seen you! Ah, if you're looking for old man Whitebeard, he's over at discedo. Marco's there, too.

You'll still be around here, though, right?

[flagrate]

Eh? Those guys are really around?

[ ace, focus, there is more going on here than that. ]

Yeah, I'll be around here.

[straw_hat]

Yeah! Marco's in a lot of places, I think. My mun can go get old man Whitebeard's mun, too, if you want.

[That, dear brother, gets you a very wide grin from Luffy.]

Great! I wanna hang out with you more!

[flagrate]

—Ah, no. It's okay. [ except wow that would be kind of awesome

and alksjd luffy you know just how to get a smile out of your brother ]

Heh, good. I'm thinking I should stick around long enough to make sure you're not doing anything too crazy.

[straw_hat]

Ah, okay. Well, he's here anyway, so it's all good.

[He is pretty good at that.] You can come do crazy stuff with me instead, then!

[flagrate]

That wasn't quite what I meant, Luffy.

[ but ten bucks says that's what would happen if the two of them were together for any decent period of time. ]

[straw_hat]

So what? We can do it, anyway!

[and they can certainly raise hell at any game...]

[sailedfirst]

[Have another bro.]

Yeah, muns can be a bunch of crybabies while doing that thing. If yours are anything like mine, huh... Good luck making 'em stop.

[flagrate]

[ and hearts break everywhere ]

I got lucky—she knows not to do too much at once. But she's not stopping entirely.

[fierybluebird]

You should have seen my mun the first few dozen times.

She's just proud of finally getting through it once. [Have a Marco sitting back to back with you Ace.] How are you doing kid?

whoops wrong icon

[flagrate]

This is the first time she's reading it through since it came out. It's... [ not pretty ] strange.

[ hi marco hi. ace is very happy to, uh, feel you since he can't see you. ]

I'm good. [ a beat ] I'm bored. Not much to do up here.

pff no problem

[fierybluebird]

Ah. At least she's not watching the anime for it? That gets rough.

Yeah? You know if you're getting bored you should try to wreak some havoc, eh. Pops would love to have you around again.

this is what i get when i don't keyword things right away

[flagrate]

Yeah, she's not sure she could handle it.

Sounds like a good time to me, but I'm not the one making those decisions this time around.

lol I have keywords that generally only make sense to me /browse feature ftw

[fierybluebird]

Like I said, it took my mun about 14 tries or something insane to get through without crying.

Oh? Any kind of game your mun would be interested in? She seems to have your voice down at least.

browse feature is the best

[flagrate]

Ah, she's not too picky. She just likes places with lots of things going on to get involved in.

It's super helpful XD

[fierybluebird]

You might want to try discedo

It's not too big but there is always something going on. Right now we have half of the people exploring an abandoned city that's haunted. And the rest of us are engaged in a war between the awesome mochi and the evil puni. [Guess which side he's on...] Pops is neutral in the war, but he's there too. Oh and some dumb marine guy you know is there. And Brooke from your brother's crew.

indeed

[flagrate]

Sounds like one hell of a place. But why are you at war? [ especially if pops is not involved... ]

sorry, dad's gotta threadjack

[papa_beard]

Because he's an idiot. [Nice to see you again, Ace.] And something's messing with his head.

*^*

[flagrate]

[ HE'S SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU DAD but happy feelings are momentarily derailed by worry over marco's head. ]

Do you know what it is? Can we kick it's ass?

*u*

[papa_beard]

[HE'S REALLY HAPPY TO SEE YOU, TOO, SON.] I have a hunch. And you bet we can kick its ass.

:D :D :D :D

[fierybluebird]

My head is just fine Pops. You just don't understand the evil of the puni. Their blue exterior is just to lure you all into a false sense of security.

And then....

Then they'll strike.

You'll see. You'll all see.

[His mun does not apologize for this, because it's hilarious.]

[flagrate]

[ SQUINTS... ]

Oi, Marco. Aren't you forgetting something? [ you're blue too, bro. ]

[fierybluebird]

My blue is genuine. Their blue is fake.

[flagrate]

Pops is right, your head is more messed up than usual.

[fierybluebird]

Oi! What's that supposed to mean?!

I'm perfectly fine!

[flagrate]

Feel like sharing your hunch?

[papa_beard]

These weird little, blobs called mochi. I think they brainwashed Marco somehow. [He sighs.]

Kid's going insane trying to kill the things called "puni". Maaah, it's all a big war and whatnot, I'm not getting involved. But Marco... he's a different story.

[fierybluebird]

Pops, how can you say that. The mochi are our friends.

[Holds up mochis of friends and then shields them from Pops petting their heads.]

You'll hurt their feelings, eh.

[Sorry Ace. He has a mochi of you too if you want it.]

[papa_beard]

I don't trust a damn one of either side, kid. You know that.

[fierybluebird]

Okay Pops, but the mochi aren't to blame, it's the puni.

Just so you know.

[papa_beard]

... right. [Nope.]

[hollower]

[Wow, it will never not be odd having to speak to people you know are dead and gone. But she's never had any problems with the Whitebeard pirates at all, and the old man himself is someone Perona's always admired and respected (and been rightfully intimidated by), so she'll nod politely to Ace.]

Oh, is your mun also beginning the events that take place on Marineford, Fire Fist-san? My own has just started Impel Down. [Perona bites her nail, looking away with uncertainty. The very thought of the pirate prison...it's unsettling.] She's already cried over you, several times already. Mun-chan is rather fond of you, it seems.
