[Morning:

There is a navigator in a New Feather dress wandering up and down the rows of what she thought was her own mikan grove, looking thoroughly lost. This isn't her dress. That isn't her cottage. This isn't her book, even if it has her name on it. (She hasn't really looked closely at it yet; just kind of picked it up and claimed it because it said Nami on the front, so finders keepers.) Not to worry; if nobody is around, she'll eventually snap out of her daze and kick the cottage door open in a fit of temper, then sit down in a place that looks long abandoned and aggressively read a lot of notes. And be...

...well, she's no less confused. What the hell.

Also, she's kind of angry. That's to be expected, right?

---------

In the afternoon, she visits the village proper and does a full round of the stores in the plaza, both looking for (a) her own things, and (b) anything that might be remotely valuable she can swipe from the stores, because supposedly it's free. Hell, while she's at it, she might as well take any clothing that looks cute. When the going gets tough, the tough go shopping. Cliche smiche, it makes her feel better.

She'll also flop down in Seventh Heaven and grab some lunch. Inevitably she'll end up in Good Spirits some time after that, because this situation is freakish and some people have recognised her and that's weird so free alcohol is an excellent idea. And it's from there she makes a quick voice post.]

[Voice]

So I've apparently been here before. I don't remember you, sorry. [Not sorry. But.] Is there anyone else here from East Blue?

Ahhh... I don't know what ninja is.

That's right. New friends. I think we can handle that.

Well, I'm certainly not going to stop you. [Drinking age what is that.]

Deal. In that case I guess I'll see you in a few weeks, if not before. It was nice meeting you, Sokka.

I'm glad to hear that. I... should probably stop bothering you for now, too, so you can focus on settling in.

Alright, then! [He presents his sleeved arm.] Would you like to take a ride on the Wagner Express?

...he's a god with self-esteem issues.

[Wat.]

I'll give him a wide berth.

[Shikamaru shrugs because he personally avoids the guy to save himself from the headache, but that's the impression he's gotten.]

Not hard, like I said.

Well, seeing as I'm intending on staying out of town I guess it'll be pretty easy. Unless he has a fruit fetish or something.

It's a nice offer, but I'd be more after names. I don't know what pirates are in town. And no. No, I don't. [She's a little abrupt, because pirate fangirling is not exactly her cup of tea. Though the bright yellow eyes does ring a vague bell.]

"Probably. What a shame I can't remember it." Such a mournful tone, although the grin that follows is clear indication she's being mischievous. "Would you take me sailing one day?"

Mm, so my wiles are wasted on you doubly, seeing as you have nothing interesting in your pockets.

[She may or may not have just checked. OR SHE MAY BE TROLLING. One or the other.]

You can have some mikans as a reward for helping out.

[It was more the jewel encrusted black sword she was fangirling than Mihawk himself, even if she did miss the big idiot a lot sometimes. Heck, a lot of the pirates she's met who've come and gone from Luceti were some of the best company she's had.]

Well, if you're looking for names, lady, I could definitely offer a few up. I know there's some kinda lawman that hangs around here too sometimes. Guy's a chimney, though, I have no idea how he hasn't keeled over from huffinf and puffing on those death sticks. [She grimaces, sticking out her tongue as she makes a face and holds up two fingers.] The guy smokes two of them at a time! Sometimes three!

Oh, I think I spoke to him, actually. [Now this change of subject she can get behind.] Maybe all the stress of being stuck here has gottne to him or something. Who else is here?

[She feels like agreeing would be kind of hurtful, so Nami just gives a shrug and a helpless sort of smile.]

Give me a couple days, okay? We can catch up.

[She picks up the bottle from the table and hesitates.] What does it feel like? It doesn't hurt, does it?

Sure thing, Nami. I'll... I'll talk to you, later, then. [The whole thing was still hurting to Aang, but he was ready to roll with it.]

Hmmm. That's a good question. Maybe if he can get her tied up with some secure knots....

"Of COURSE, love! There's nothing I'd like more!"

So untrusting, Captain Sparrow.

"I'll hold you to that. Even if it's just sailing around a little, it'll be a taste of home."

If that sounds sincerely wistful, it's because she worked hard to make it so.

You will! I promise.

Alright! Good luck then. [He does a quick nod - and he hesitates, as if considering another hug. But he thinks better of it and turns to leave while meekly smiling.]

Of course not! It's just like taking a very quick jump. I mean, some people feel kind of woozy from it, but it passes quickly.

Yes. [She's quiet a moment as she skeptically looks at Nami.] You truly do not remember the location of the town?

It's nice to meet you too, Nami. And if you need anything, you're welcomed to call me, or just stop by the tea shop. I'm usually there.
