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. *_*]

Hey, you've improved! [She reaches out to take it from him, grin approving.] Thank you! And no problem. I wasn't very sociable when I first woke up, anyway. [Kinda still sleeping 80 percent of the time >_>]

How've you been?

I've been practicing. [Totally not beaming at that praise, nope. :'D] Oh... But, you sure you're okay now? No problems or anything? [He's got to make sure, you know. A bro's nakama is also his concern.]

I'm good! 'Least, a lot better than the last few weeks.

Edited (let's make it vague; having memory problems rn ^^;) 2012-10-07 06:50 (UTC)

I heard about that. [It's enough to make her smile dip briefly, because it wasn't exactly good news. She flops down next to him.] And I'm fine. I spent a week being really tired, but I'm back to normal now.

Glad you've completely recovered now! But huh, you'd think being asleep for too long'll give you more energy. [These experiments are weird, man.

Anyway, he tilts his head at her.] Heard? Oh, you mean about the refugees? [Wincing a bit.] ...Yeah, you're lucky you missed that one.

I'd say so. I'm glad you're okay, though. Marco said you'd been learning from Nala?

Yeah. Thought healing magic'll be handy one day, so I looked for her first when I heard about the Spirits. Though, I was kinda hoping I wouldn't need to use it too. [He looks down at his crafts with a small sigh.] Should've known better, considering who my brothers are.

Probably, yeah. [Heh.]

It's a good skill to have in general in Luceti, thoguh. I started picking it up for much that reason. My crew kept getting into all kinds of trouble. [...because of her, but she won't go into that. >_>] Best way for me to help keep them safe, I guess.

Oh, what kind of trouble? [Innocently assuming this is the fun, adventure-y kind. >>]

But yeah, same here! Ahhh, it's really good to hear an opinion of a non-Devil Fruit user about this. They just can't appreciate how useful the Spirits really are!

[Nami's just casually going to pretend he didn't ask that question, especially as she can just address the second part.]

They should. Marco's an exception; everyone else kind of has to heal the hard way. It might not be as grandscale powerful as a devil fruit, but it makes life a heck of a lot easier for those devil fruit users.

[Luckily he's easily distracted by the topic to notice the unanswered question, staring at the ground with a hard look in his eyes.]

...Nah, even Marco has his off days. [Like when there's 90% power cap everywhere and he's outnumbered.] He just likes to pretend he hasn't, with his crazy phoenix stories.

Ah. Well, he's not exactly the odd one out when it comes to doing that. But my point stands... filial magic can be a lifesaver no matter who you are.

True... Oh, well. We can only hope that fact wouldn't be put to the test again. Or, since that's unlikely, 'least not too soon after the last! [sighs.] Ace got injured again, y'know.

Again? [There's a curious mixture of exasperation and concern in her voice.] That guy has worse luck than-- than anyone else in this village! Seriously.

It's not exactly new to me, seeing him all injured. You should've seen him when he's younger! [Yyyep, he probably has a similar mix of expression in his face.]

But yeah, he got injured by that huge wolf god. They're pretty friendly, from what I heard, that's why he didn't try to fight back and burn her. I think that amnesia thing made her forgot she doesn't just attack humans like that...

Oh, Moro. [She blinks. And then has the grace to look sheepish.]

I... was kind of there for Moro. I thought you meant since then. But still, the point stands.

[You know...like in the last few days. Nami might have a skewed notion of Ace's tendency to be half killed by random things in Luceti.]

[Sabo stares for a moment, trying to figure out what she means. And then it hits him, and he grimaces a bit. You know, it won't be long when he starts thinking like that too.]

No. Not since, luckily! Or, well. If you don't count me punching his face whenever he complains about not being allowed to move much. [Dealing with the D stubbornness can be too much, honestly.]

[Snrk.] No, I don't think violence in the name of looking after him counts. Let me know if you need a hand.

[Laughs.] Thanks, that's gonna be real helpful. If you can handle Luffy just fine without going crazy, then Ace'll definitely be no problem to you!

[Then he notices the basket for the first time and promptly brightens up.] Oh, is it harvest season yet?

Soon! [She pats the edge of the basket.] They're inconvenient and don't suddenly become ripe all at once, so I pull them in by the basketloads over the weeks beforehand. But we'll strip all the trees of what's left by the end of October, before the snows come in.

Want one?

Yes, please! [Who is he to refuse free food?]

Can I help? I've always just filched fruits from market stands, so I wanna experience harvesting 'em myself for once! [Harvesting potentially poisonous mushrooms in the forest totally doesn't count.]

Your help'd be welcome! [Especially if the Malnosso conspire to make her miss the harvest date. ~~Spoilers. They will.~~ She palms a mikan out of the basket and tosses it gently to him.] The more able hands I get, the faster it is. And we tend to make a party of it, too, so even if you don't help out, you're welcome to come to that.

[Catches neatly! and thanks Nami happily.]

Oh wow, that sounds great! I'm definitely not gonna miss that. I'll even bring Ace and Marco for extra help, if they're not there already!

[~~this is on top of Zoro being dead? ow ;^;~~]

Great! It'll be more fun with all three of you there anyway. I'm sure Sanji-kun will put lots of food on for the event and everything.
