[Action/Video] Day 5 onwards

[mikangirl]

[And on the first four days of this experiment, lo, the navigator was completely unaffected and oblivious, casually making use of Trafalgar Law's coated ship to pretend Luceti doesn't exist explore the ruins beneath the water.  She'd have invited Raine, only you know.  Under the surface and all.  S'all good.  It's not like the rest of the village is going nuts or anything, is it?

...

...and on day 5, there is a lot of screaming, lost to the depths of the sea.  Luckily, her journal is off for that part, or she'd never live it down.  However.]

[Panicked Voice] 

Zoro!!  Katara?  Someone get me off of this thing!!   Why is it always a boat?

[Ship, Nami.  But hey.   Feel free to drop in on her for a rescue or a random teleport or whatever floats your...boat... /shot


From day 7 onward Nami will be afflicted by the teleporting bug herself, turning up in all sorts of awkward places.  Not always fully dressed.  Beware:  she will charge you for the privilege,   8|  Throughout, though, she really kind of believes she's someone else, married with three children.  Ahahaha.  She may kill someone when this is over.]

If I do, you'll have to apologise to the bartender for my drink upending all over the floor.

[Voice]

[mikangirl]

[Oh. Well...she does feel a little badly about that for him, but...maybe he's not aware.]

Well... I wasn't trying to exclude you. The people at the orchard really are my extended family. We have a big one. My husband and ex-husband have a whole bunch of brothers - I've got four myself.

You could've just asked, though.

[A-aha.]

Nami, um—what do you remember so far about Luceti, again?

[gavemyword]

... Nami, are you sure you're feeling ok? [He drops her hand to awkwardly scratch the back of his head.]

[damuron]

It's part of the bartender's job to clean up the mess that the patrons make anyway. I don't think I have anything to worry about!

It'd be a shame to waste a good drink though.

[mikangirl]

My father has nothing to do with my debts.

[Dude, it's Zoro you really don't wanna piss off. But well, Vash has always been kinda dopey.]

[seakingbait]

...M-maybe you should hide inside.

[goldenglasses]

But best not to upset the daughter of a father who could get you into trouble, right?

[mikangirl]

[...

...oh. Oh, Sheena.]

...I didn't know.

[corrinesbell]

It's fine, just leave it alone. Don't worry about it.

[mikangirl]

[Dude, you're her sister, she can't leave you alone. Nami's gonna kind of ambush you with a hug now, 'kay.]

[mikangirl]

Who needs my father to get you into trouble? [How many times has she hit you thus far?]

[corrinesbell]

[She's a little surprised - but she shouldn't be.

Folding herself into Nami's hug is shockingly easy. It feels better than trying to deal with the emptiness alone.]

[goldenglasses]

Alright, lets go with more trouble then. Does that work?

[action]

[fallenambitions]

Is that so...? [He's pleased to see his daughter was all right, so he's not going to stop her from hugging him. He'll return it as well.]

Well, I'm glad to see you came out of there all right. And to answer your question, yes.

action;

[mikangirl]

Of course we do. [Nami looks faintly surprised. Because lol, Luceti Valley also enforced the Don't Question The Parentage rule.] Look, I know it's confusing, but it'll wear off eventually.

[action]

[mikangirl]

[She pulls back after a bit.] I thought so. My husband has no idea who I am. Have you seen the kids at all?

action;

[alloys]

Yeah, I'm sure it will. [He doesn't want to argue the point. He's done enough arguing about Shifts this week and it was getting old.] So--why don't you tell me more about what I'm missing not remembering things they way you do? I'd love a first hand account. Really. I'm not even being facetious.

[littlekidtetsu]

[It's cool he'll just. Stand over here bowing a little, looking really awful and sad and on the verge of tears.]

I'm sorry—I'm really sorry. I'm so sorry!

[Voice]

[mikangirl]

{...this again.]

...

Why don't you tell me what I'm meant to remember.

[mikangirl]

[O-oh jeez, kid don't cry--]

Hey--hey, it's okay! No harm done, all right? You didn't mean to do it, and-- and I startled you. [And to prove she's okay, Nami stands up and masks the faint wince, brushing herself down, before crouching in front of him-- though she won't reach out for him this time, just in case he, y'know, startles all over again.]

You're just a kid. Can you turn it off or are you-- are you stuck like that? [Was he glowing before she hit the water? Kind of hard to tell, given she was flailing and screaming for all she was worth up til that point.]

[mikangirl]

You mean, apart from waking up on a random boat under the water? [Definitely she's getting nervous now.] I should ask you the same question. You wanted to cut it! Do you remember who I am?

[gavemyword]

[He doesn't think any of that stuff is particularly strange considering their lifestyle but is at least smart enough to realize that this wasn't the time get into an argument about it. He looks her in the eye, slow and steady.]

You're Nami, our navigator. You like mikan and money and manipulating that idiot love-cook into doing things for you. [Your village was taken over by Arlong and you steal without reservation. You have a sister with purple hair, a weapon that manipulates weather, and a dream as big as my own.

In short, nakama. Zoro's gaze turns suspicious.] ... what's this about?

[mikangirl]

Maybe I should just throw the whole thing down in the first few seconds I get it, just in case. Or d'you think if I hold on hard enough I'd just take it with me? I could deal with that.

[mikangirl]

[Navigator. The part after that is true enough (though she's never heard love cook, she's pretty sure she knows who that describes), but 'navigator' is definitely. Wrong. Very wrong. Dammit.]

You don't remember running a dojo? Or the fact that Jack Sparrow stole all my money? The mikan festivals? The fact we're--

[...she doesn't quite have the courage to finish that. But she does look kind of hurt.]
