So I'm curious. How bizarre did some of your reminder cards get? Did anyone not take them all at face value?

[She has valid reasons to ask, trust me. Selfish Nami-is-pissy reasons, mind, but that's what happens after you've spent a week with a scattered crew and a comatose chef and a mallynapped swordsman and find yourself playing babysitter to a bunch of people who really ought to know better, not looking at you, Perona. Also there's an anniversary coming up she really wished she hadn't still been around to see.

Ergo, busy day ahead.]

[Locked to Shikamaru]

Hey, you wanna catch up for a drink?

[Yes, random ninja are often asked out on quasi dates.]

[Locked to Tony Stark]

Mind if I drop round? The normal way, this time.

[Aside from these possibly redundant plottin shenanigans, Nami will be in her usual haunts: the mikan orchard in the afternoon and Good Spirits in the evening. Though around noon she's gonna drop in to Seventh Heaven (or if it's still closed, wherever Sanji is) to check on him. Just to make sure things are, y'know, okay now. Because mad cooking sprees are kind of a cause for alarm.  Moreso than Sleeping Beauty syndrome. Back atcha, chef.

Also, Zoro, hurry up and come home. She wants to have words about certain balancing games played. *_*]

[Jeez, Marco, how old are you.]

Spade Pirates, huh? I didn't know he was a captain before he joined Whitebeard's crew. [Ace of Spades, though. Fitting. Sadly in more than one way...which brings up another thought.]

Do you mind me asking... what time you're from? I mean-- [Weird question.] We're all from different times, so...

[ action ]

[tibias]

[ OLD AS BALLS. also, shanks went out to sea when he was like. ten. ]

He had a good crew. I think they ended up getting absorbed into Whitebeard's once Ace joined up. Which happened after Ace tried to kill him. [ shanks has lots of stories, should nami ever want some about supposedly fearsome pirates. and, of course, her captain. ]

Ah... { his smile fades and he swirls drink thoughtfully. ] I was just leaving a funeral. Ace and Whitebeard's, actually.

[ action ]

[mikangirl]

Ah. I'd wondered. I guess we're all on the same page, then.

[Her own smile is a little wistful.]

He tried to kill Whitebeard, huh?

[ action ]

[tibias]

I guess so.

[ he knocks back some of his drink and smiles again. ]

He wanted to make a name for himself. Killing Whitebeard would've been a hell of a way to do it.

[ action ]

[mikangirl]

...annnd Whitebeard responded by inviting him to join the crew?

[Though really, this wouldn't surprise her that much. She has Luffy for a captain.]

[ action ]

[tibias]

More or less. And Ace's crew wasn't the only one he did that to. How do you think they managed to get up to around 1600 strong?

[ because seriously. picking all of 'em up one by one would've taken ages. ]

[ action ]

[mikangirl]

[Snrk.] Good point. [And she finally starts knocking back some of her own drink.] Out of everyone to turn up in Luceti, I'm glad Ace did. Not just because of Luffy. [The guy deserves some quality time with his family.]

[ action ]

[tibias]

This may not be the most ideal place, but... It's good that he has more time to live. [ he died way too young, in shanks' opinion. ] Especially since Marco, Luffy, and Sabo are here.

[ action ]

[mikangirl]

...yeah. I agree. [Given Sabo's also dead.] It's about the only good thing Luceti has going for it... second chances for a lot of people. Even if it does go crazy every month.

[...which reminds her. She kind of side-eyes Shanks.] So uh... did you get affected this last week?
