[Action/Voice]
[Well, at least this experiment gives Nami plenty of ways to vent and keep busy. In between running escort duty and interference in the Ganglands area for both Nojiko and Good Spirits, there's the small issue of her mikan grove now being part of the searing desert... so she's up there every night providing cool, sweet rainy relief for the mikan trees, the grasses, and the crocodiles.

Get out! OUT! OUT!
[Why yes, she is chasing a bunch of crocodiles out of her grove back to the river with a crackling quarterstaff, why do you ask. Anyone for fried crocodile meat? >_>
Catch her either in the plaza in her ganglands finery beating up on the local thugs or drinking or maybe just. You know, having a cupcake in a quiet period. Or up at the orchard in the evenings, dressed like an Alabastan dancing girl and basking in the extremely localised rain. Such is life.]
---------
[On the third evening, she makes a post as something occurs to her, walking through the orchard and swinging her staff casually on crocodile patrol.]
[Voice]
Is there anyone else who's got a garden stuck in a desert area? If you need it I could provide you with some extraaaaIEEEAAA--
[Thud. Crunch. Slide. Mud everywhere. Small, pathetic sound of pain. You try falling right through a sinkhole into a tomb and see how you feel.
...
...a tom--] KYAA! Someone get me out of here! There are tombs everywhere and scorpions and something glo--
[...
..../crickets. Singsong voice.]
Never mind!
-- [Journal slam.]
[...SO BASICALLY Nami is lost in a tomb but she doesn't care because there's GOLD in them there crypts, but you know. She probably needs a rescue anyway. Or company. Or someone else who fell in. Or someone who just got...hopelessly lost... heck, while we're down here may as well see if there's any of those scavenger hunt items, right? Amidst the monsters and the booby traps. Aheh. 8D Come on down.]

She's just going to head out to the mikan grove, where she'd assumed Nami would be, and -
well that certainly is a hole in the ground there. ]
Nami?
action;
[Oh that is so far removed, and barely heard, but Nami can hear Nojiko clearly enough. She sounds positively gleeful.] It's okay, I'm not hurt! Everything's just fine!
[Giggle.]
action;
So you can get out of there? [ She's edging closer, and hoping the ground is more or less stable. ]
action; 1/3
action;
She hadn't even thought about that.]
action;
action;
Sigh. Siiiigh. ] I'll go get some rope. ...Do we have any rope?
action;
[Yep, she's getting quieter as she walks away from the hole. Possibly distracted by something very prettily glinting on the wall.
Ominous snickt sound echoing up.]
Whoops.
action;
whoops indeed. The hole up top widens, because Nami's getting company. ]
action;
You probably don't want to come down here!
[Sound of running footsteps. 8D Clackclackclack. Yep, she still wears high heels wherever she goes even now.]
action;
And then she's tracking you down. ]</small.
action;
[There may be ominous sounds behind you. Kind of sounds like the tide coming in. Only, you know. Underground. >_>]
action;
That sounds really ominous. ] What did you do??
[ did you trip a trap Nami. ]
action;
[It had some pretty gold inlay and she just wanted a look but--] -- kind of hit a level or a button catch thingy, I don't know, it's kind of dark aha--
Just keep running.
[There's a way out somewhere right? Because that is definitely water flooding the tunnel behind them. :Db Can you hold your breath?]
action;
Yes, because stopping was absolutely my first instinct!
[ she's only snarky because you seem okay. ...For now, anyway. ]
action;
YEEEEEEEEE-- [--glub. Not lettin' go of Nojiko's wrist though. WELL, RUNNING IS TIRING?]
