[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.]

[DSDSFJGKLDFGJKL NOT VERY GOOD

I AM WET AND NOW I AM SCRAMBLING BEHIND THIS TREE]

Holy shit!

[9_6 why is everything falling from the sky in front of me]

[mikangirl]

[Surfacing. Somewhat irritated, as usual, but she does remember seeing a kid on the bank, so she treads water a second and looks around and hey where did you go 8| Did she accidentally drown you--]

Hello? Kid, you okay?

[littlekidtetsu]

[nope nope

just glowing back here because you scared me into NEXTdom]

I'm fine! I was just—looking at some birds... or something...!

[hiding and pretending this is normal, okay]

[mikangirl]

[You don't sound okay. 8|a There are splashing sounds as she wades out of the water. Luckily you guys don't glow like Christmas trees or anything, but she is coming closer to that voice.]

You sure? Anyway, what are you doing so far out of the village? There are wild animals out here, you know.

[littlekidtetsu]

I—um. [wow this tree sure loves to stammer] I know, but m'not scared. I played in the forest at home, too...

[mikangirl]

At home...? So you're new here, huh? [From one of the other settlements, she guesses. Nami hesitates by the stammering tree, and then just kind of...ducks around it all fast like to say hi.

...

...o...kay.]

Are you meant to be glowing like that?

[littlekidtetsu]

No—I mean—!!

[He scrambles back a little, hits a tree.

Just kinda'

y'know

casually knocks it over on accident]

AAH—

[mikangirl]

Hey, watch out-- [Sob Nami will try and yank the kid away from the tree now okay. Not that it was probably gonna fall on him, but small child, tree, you know-- I'm panicking okay 8|]

[littlekidtetsu]

[FFFF-- NO]

Don't touch me!!

[Not said maliciously, but in fear, as he moves to shove her back without thinking; hope you don't mind getting thrown across the grass there if he gets ya', Nami. He really didn't mean to do it.]

[mikangirl]

[Gawd that is so rude Kotetsu B| Remind her to kick you when you grow older and she works out who this is.

But as for now she'll just go flying with a small yelp and kind of bounce off a tree over there and go thud into the dirt. She sort of had the wind knocked out of her and is okay otherwise, but don't panic or anything because right now she's not moving. No big deal. :D]

[littlekidtetsu]

[Aaaa, no! Nononono. No!

He scrambles over, having trouble keeping himself from just flying at each step, before he crouches down next to her, hands hovering.]

I'm so sorry! Are you okay?? Hey, can you hear me?!

[oh no he's hurt someone--what if she's dead he's a killer no no no]

[mikangirl]

[Kind of hard to breathe, give her a second here--

--though he sounds kinda panicked, so after a few seconds Nami at least waves a hand at him and mouths I'm okay. He's strong as hell and that's startling, but the fact he's worrying now means Nami's not too worried, either. Just. Uh. Very startled.

--hhk. There we go. Coughing a little now.]

That's. Pretty impressive. [Ow. She will be stiff tomorrow. But nothing seems broken, so no big deal.]

[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!

[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.]

[littlekidtetsu]

[Flushed, he shakes his head and wipes at his eye with the back of his hand.]

I don't know h-how to stop it. I don't know. I've tried, but it's hard to...

M'sorry.

[mikangirl]

Hmm. You're forgiven if you can help me get back to town. I'm not sure of the way from here. [Liar, liar. But to stop the kid from rabbitting off, anyway.] If you can't stop it, then it's not your fault, okay? What's your name?

[littlekidtetsu]

I can do that!

[but

names

u-um]

... I'm Kotetsu.

[Mom says no talking to strangers. But he sorta' just threw her, so. Manners.]

[mikangirl]

Kotetsu...?

[Ohoho what is with this week. She thought you were kinda familiar, kid.

...so growing up with this kind of power was rough, huh.]

It's a good name. I'm Nami. I run the orchard north of town.

[littlekidtetsu]

O-oh! Hi Nami. [He rubs the back of his head. Yep, still glowing.] U-um--do you know where Oriental Town is? I, uh. I need to find my mom...

[mikangirl]

Nowhere around here, I'm afraid. [But the question makes her frown.] How long have you been here? Has anyone told you where you are?

[littlekidtetsu]

[..............


NOPE.

He shakes his head.]

I just know that this place is called 'Luceti'... I think.

[mikangirl]

[...oh boy.]

Yeah, it's called Luceti. It's uh...kind of a weird place. You might be stuck here for a few days, hate to say.
