gomugomunopwn | [Action/Voice]: Again with the Returning

[SO! If someone just happens to be somewhere around town square near Usopp's super amazing item shop, then they might start to see some of the rubble remains of the building slowly start to move and shake around a little. And then? There's yelling. Lots and lots of muffled yelling.]

UUUUURRAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!

[And BAM, just like that a Luffy is bursting out of the rubble in all his rubbery awesome non-capped glory. He's panting a bit, but overall he looks okay besides some scratches and cuts.] That was dangerous... [Pant] I couldn't breathe for a second. [He searches around a bit, and manages to find his hat, before placing it back on his head.]

How the hell did I end up down-- [And it's at this point, that he actually manages to glance around and get a good look at the surroundings and how completely messed up Luceti is right now.... What the HELL happened!?]

[ooc: SO YEAH, I'M BACK.... again! Hopefully this is be the last hiatus for a long while so don't worry! Annnd To reserve both our sanities, Luffy... actually doesn't remember being taken. BUT the Malnosso did toy around with him a bit. Not telling what though, ohohohohohoho.

Oh, and the journal pretty much picked up all of this! Tags may be slow and I'll probably be heading off to bed soooon~]

We haven't heard from them direct. [...] ...although. Apparently that John guy that lives in the tunnels got buried. We were asked to help search for him, but I don't know if that was successful.

Given the weird way the barrier is acting, I'm thinking they've had some kind of major breakdown over there.

John? Like anyone would bother searching for that bastard.

What's wrong with the barrier anyway?

[That gives her pause. Seriously, Luffy? You'd seriously just let a guy suffocate and die slowly like that, no matter who he is? But maybe he doesn't know how serious it was.]

I don't know. It's flickering red on and off. Most people think it's breaking down.

[Um, HELLO!? Malnosso. They can do anything geez. A little suffocation isn't gonna hurt him. :| See, Nami. You just haven't been here as long as him so you don't know this stuff.]

Really!? [He's trying so hard not to get his hopes up and sound normal right now.] And I think-- the power limit might be gone again too.

[Oh right, right, her mistake.]

I'd heard that. [Not that she noticed the difference herself. And then carefully:] If you go out to the barrier, be careful. I'm pretty sure it's there to protect us from what's out there as well as keep us in.

I think I... heard that from somewhere before. [Though, he's kinda been ignoring that fact. Yaaay forced naivety.]

If I manage to break it, I might be able to get to the Malnosso, but... everyone will be in danger right?

[...give her a moment to think about that.]

...I honestly don't know. It may be the barrier is going to break down completely anyway. And you probably wouldn't be the only person trying to break out, so...

Yosh! If it's gonna break down anyway, I might as well try to break it down myself--

Oh! I should probably go check up on everyone first though.

[Heh.] They're probably coming to you. Give them a couple minutes.

And Zoro's in his room, if you wanna check up on him.

I'll stay 'till everyone gets here and I get a chance to talk to 'em face to face.

And after that, I can go visit the others. [Like all those Luceti people he knows.]

[ This is one house door closing ~~and possibly a few guests getting shoved out of the goddamn way because--~~ ]

[ There is a sniper in the room like MAGIC, and he is tackle-hugging the captain now, kthnx. ]

LUFFYYYYYYY! [ Shut up he's not about to cry. ]

[Did a skeleton come in behind that sniper? APPARENTLY, because there's one latched onto both him and Luffy now.]

CAPTAIN! [ Consider yourself glomped, sir 8| ]

[Oh we're not done yet. Luffy, you get exactly two seconds of breathing room between those initial glompings and a gorilla-man-thing jumping forward and lifting all three of you off the ground. HUGS. HUGS FOR EVERYONE.] Luffyyyy!

[D'aaaww guys! He's just going to be laughing and smiling the whole time during the glomp-fest]

Usopp, Brook, Chopper! It's good to see you guys!

[AND HE DOESN'T SECRETLY STRETCH AN ARM AROUND NAMI AND PULL HER INTO THIS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.]

[SDJKFSDF AMBUSHED DD8---

--well okay, just this once. B|]

AHH! We killed him!

[LUFFY NOOOO ;;]

OH NO! I CRUSHED HIM TO DEATH! DOCTORRRR!!

[Never mind that he's rubber shut up]

Would you guys quit being dramatic? He's done this before.

[Shakin' you now, Luffy. Gently. ...for now. 8|]

Huh?

[Instantly awake! Whoa, what are you shaking him for?]
