[At 17, Nami will be out and about per usual, though not trying out her newly discovered thieving ways. She learned all she needed to the day before (a year ago), and by now she knows enough of what's going on. Her mood isn't the best for a variety of reasons, so at some point in the afternoon she vanishes off to the sea and just watches the waves from the desert fort until she can't see anything at all. She'll creep home late.
At 18, on the other hand... she wakes up in tears. Again. But it's okay. This time she doesn't mind at all. She doesn't so much sleep in this morning as curl around her pillow and rake over her memories until they all make sense, so if anyone wants her before 10 that's where she'll be. When she finally gets up, she spends most of the day in the house because ksfasf she finally remembers all of you sorry pirates. She just doesn't remember anyone else. And the Arlong brand is gone this morning, replaced with her familiar pinwheel-and-mikan tattoo.
At 19, she makes a post, a little paler than usual. She's regained all the way to her nineteenth birthday, but the events before that were kinda nasty. 8|]
[Voice]
So I finally remember enough to work out what's been going on this week. But as I understand it, I still have a couple years to go, so. Don't hold it against me if I don't remember you for another day, or whatever.
So... am I cute at 21?
[Private to Noel]
Um. [She remembers you saying two people went home a few days ago. That, and according to her memories, you're supposedly missing.] Are you there?

I've never minded flattery. Who's this?
voice
[So strange, so strange!]

...in the meanwhile, did you make it to the beach okay?
voice
...and I definitely don't remember that being there before. So I guess it's pretty new, somehow.
[Did that make sense? Oh well.]
voice
...The beach? Long-time residents say it's a recent addition--I dunno how recent though.
voice
This is kinda confusing.

So what do you do for a living, Lupin?
voice
And I'm a collector [
thief] by trade. It's a fun life, I like to think.voice
Just Nami is fine, thanks.
voice
You can just call me Lupin then. No Mr. Lupin, or Lupin-san, thanks.
voice
Lupin it is. A fellow collector, huh? [She's getting an idea of why her future!self would be friendly with this guy.]

Oh, ho ho! That'll be the day!
