[Voice, mostly]
[No two ways about it, the weather's getting colder. It's got to the point it's very seriously unattractive to go riverdiving, okay. And it's been a month, and she's still here and that sucks, so... time to actually make decisions like she's going to be stuck here for a while.]
[Voice | Locked from Rubber Captains Everywhere]
[Okay, so it's only like a 20% filter, but it's Luffy. She doesn't need more than that.]
Is there anyone in town who could help me out with some plumbing installation at the mikan grove? I don't have running water up where I live and it's kind of getting cold, so...
...ah, I could pay you in fruit. There's a lot of it and it's getting pretty ripe now. Or we can work something else out.
Oh, speaking of which, I know this place has got harvested every year by...uh... me. I guess. It's getting around that time of the year. I'd appreciate it if anyone would be willing to give me a hand, say, first Saturday in November? There's like a shed up here with baskets and everything, so just... bring yourselves, I guess.
[This feels weird. She'll leave it there.]
Anyway, thanks.
[Not a lot of action to be had todaythat sounds dirty because Nami is avoiding the village itself due to certain new arrivals, gosh. GOOD THING HE DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT THE ORCHARD, RIGHT.
But yes, she'll be up in the farmlands if anyone is actually around or wants to pay a visit.]

voice;
That's pretty harsh, though. She blinks at him before trying to recover equilibrium, given he said it so casually. Uh. Where was she.]
...learning that people I like are dead.
[That was not the correct thing to say, Nami. gj.]
voice;
[UM.........................................Oops.]
Look, it ain't nothin' bad. I ain't really dead, just mostly dead an' it all works out in the end. I get t'come back to life later, just not when I'm from. [He shrugs.]
'Sides, I can do a really cool trick. Wanna see?
voice;
Sure. Show me.
video;
Aight, watch this.
[He holds up his hands and goes a little slack - and suddenly his hands are fading out of view.]
video;
You can turn invisible?
[There's a small voice going eeee ghoooost in the back of her mind. She chooses to ignore it.]
video;
Nah, not really. I mean, I guess it's kinda like that? I'm in Limburgh or whateva' they call it. Ain't fully dead, but ain't alive neither.
video;
I guess here, you seem pretty alive to me.
video;
'Cept I ain't gonna get any older here in Luceti - I don't age or change or nothin'. My partner's getting older - old as me now. Kinda weird when I'm used to bein' the bigger one of us, yanno?
video;
Oh! Did she get her hands looked at? Rhyme, I mean.
video;
And it ain't really a bonus bein' stuck at fifteen, Oranges. My lil' sis is growin' up and sooner or later she gonna be as tall or taller'n me.
video;
...
How old are you really?
video;
An' I'm fifteen. I can't get no older, so I'm stuck like this?
...
Or are you asking how old I'd be if I weren't stuck? I get confused sometimes.
video;
video;
[He starts counting back on his fingers, trying to figure out the months.]
....More'n two years?
Huh, damn, guess I'd be seventeen then.
video;
Any chance of you being unstuck in the future?
video;
Oh, yeah - that ain't a problem. I just gotta get back an' win the Game wit' my friends n' everything'll be aight.

He pauses for a moment and laughs nervously.]
video;
That was sarcasm.
[Because DEAR GOD.]
video;
--!!! I-I knew that!!
[He jumps on the video and then drops lower, fists up like he's ready to fight against nothing in particular.]
I know sacarism!
video; 1/2

video;
Phones n' Shiki said we do. I dunno - I trust 'em not t'lie to me, so I guess we win. It's kinda subreal, 'cause I haven't lived it yet. But I guess we win. Phones wins.
