[Action]

[gomugomunopwn]

[So after waking up in his New Feather clothes out in the forest, Luffy managed to find his way back to town and went straight for the clothes shop. He had his journal with him, but he decided not to make an entry about his return. That would be boring. He wanted to surprise all his friends and meet them face to face. But to do that he needed his new awesome clothes first.

Luckily the Malnosso decided to be generous for once and actually had his outfit in the clothing shop as opposed to the one Hancock gave him to disguise himself. But hopefully it'd appear at some point though. It'd be nice to have a memento of her here.

Whelp, now all he had to do was gear up.]

Man. Two whole years... I don’t think I’ve ever been sent home for that long. [He starts to put his arms through his red cardigan.] How long was I gone for anyway? I wonder if anyone’s changed since I left. [He takes his yellow sash in his hands and wraps it around his waist before tying it.]

Nnnn. Where’d I put it—-ah. [He reaches for his straw hat and practically slams it on top of his hand.] Yosh! I'm ready.

[Luffy is going to just wander to different places in Luceti looking for all his buddy friends, but feel free to bump into him even if you’re not. He'll be happy to talk to just about anyone right now really. Along his search he'll be going into all store/restaurant/whatever in Lucet seeing if he can surprise anyone there.

He'll also head out into the forest since he wants to see Moro, and he might even swing by a few houses for a surprise visit (If he knows where you live). The last place he stops is going to be the Strawhat’s house, but they can feel free to run into him before then. Besides the new outfit and huge scar on his chest, he hasn't changed much guys! o/

And yes he already had on his blue shorts shuddaaap!]

I'm not still awake shut up placeholder action

[WELL NAMI IS AT HOME. Because there's a draft tomorrow and she's preparing for it, and honestly? After both Luffy and Robin leaving so suddenly? She doesn't want to leave the house and chance missing anyone else.

She'll be in her room packing. |D]

*Patpat* YOUR BODY WILL SLEEP EVENTUALLY Action

[Ah, well even if she's still in her room, Luffy is still gonna get her, because he's peeking into all the rooms too to see if anyone is in them. When he peeks into Nami's he can instantly feel how down the atmosphere is. It was kind of like that in the whole house really. Was he really gone for THAT long? And what is she packing for? Well regardless, he can get to that later. For now his navigator needed some cheering up.]

You lied you know...

[There a Luffy in your doorway, Nami!]

There wasn't any eye lasers. Shishishi.

[goldenglasses]

[Vash is out today. Bundled up against the cold, people watching in the square. Although a little different this time. His sunglasses are on his head and he's not smiling. He's not frowning, but not smiling is unusual for Vash. He's just trying to get a good look at the calm he's going to be attempting to protect.

8D Remind him that it's not always calm around here?]

[howtobeaboss.livejournal.com]

[Geeez what the hell is UP with everyone today? He leaves for... a few years AND WHEN HE COMES BACK EVERYTHING'S CHANGED! He'l do something a little more drastic in Vash's case. Such as jumping off a roof. Look out below, Vaaash!]

OOOOOOOi! Vash!! [If uh. If you don't move he's going to land on you FYI.]

You know... I got the tag and sat there for a moment going: Who the heck is THAT!?

[goldenglasses]

Lu-FFY!?

GAHHHHHHHHH! [Throwing himself out of the way! Plz no smoochy!]

[deathsdoctor]

[Staring. Just staring.

At that scar.

Quietly.

Did Rayleigh tell you? Law thinks he would have. About it.

...

...

... it should have healed better.]

olook another placeholder for ya

[hana-king.livejournal.com]

[ OH HEY BUDDY FRIEND. Usopp will be in the house too, go figure.

He's not about to go running off to the store while Nami's been drafted and everything sucks. ]

[capital-justice.livejournal.com]

[Flynn is out doing what he always does, and that's walk around the village like an Imperial Knight should. So it should be pretty damn easy for Luffy to find him.]

[nextgen-hokage.livejournal.com]

[If Luffy's going to be going into the restaurant, he's bound to find one Naruto chowing down on ramen. As it should be. Maybe he shouldn't be so excited to eat since he's not going out to battle with his friends from home, but it's Naruto and he's hungry.

So yeah. Take that, ramen.]

he got taller didn't he?

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[Selphie's en route to the clothing shop as another pair of her jeans might a violent and bloody death in the battle dome. Any pair would do if they were just gonna trashed so Luffy. Where do these two run into each other?]

.... DANGIT ZEEZEE! I THOUGHT I EXPLAINED THIS!

[howtobeaboss.livejournal.com]

[And he's just going to... land on the ground. All anticlimactic like.]

Hahahaha! I knew you'd dodge it! You haven't changed a bit.

[howtobeaboss.livejournal.com]

[Well Luffy doesn't quite notice Law at first since he's busy just looking around at the town and noticing how nothings changed since he left. It's kind of nostalgic actually. He manage to glance at Law, look away, and then double take and look again. Heeeey that's--]

Law!? Oi, Law, that's you?

[There's just that moment where Nami freezes, for once not even bothering to defend her dubious honour, because the moment he starts speaking her clothing falls from suddenly nerveless hands.

Shishishi.

And he has that scar and the shirt and--]

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

[deathsdoctor]

Yes.

[You've gotten stronger. He can feel it. And... you're smiling.

You are not the wreck he left on Amazon Lily in the care of Jinbe and Rayleigh. You are not the boy in the newspaper that he hoped was on the psychic as well as physical mend.

But are you truly better? Aside from your strength, you seem relatively unchanged. Like your brother's death just bounced off you like rubber.]

Yes, Mister Strawhat, it's me.

I SHALL CARRY EVERY PLACEHOLDER EVA

[gomugomunopwn.livejournal.com]

[Ugh, see now he feels like somethings been spoiled for him since he got to see your new outfit and look early here than back home. You could've at least said spoiler alert dude.]

Oi, Usopp! [And Luffy's walking up to you wherever you are, and swinging an arm around your shoulder. SURPRIIIIISE.]

How long have I been gone for things to get this boring!?

[gomugomunopwn.livejournal.com]

[Hey Flynn. You might notice a certain Luffy crouching down on the roof you're currently passing by.]

Hehehe! I thought I'd find you out here paroling! Even if I was gone for a hundred years you'd still be doing it. [And commence the Luffy laughter.]

[capital-justice.livejournal.com]

[Hey, what kind of smack talk is that.] Excuse me--

WHOA! FROM THIS ANGLE IT LOOKS LIKE A TIMESKIP!ICON!

[gomugomunopwn.livejournal.com]

[Whelp, Naruto! Hope you're prepare to have a Luffy plopping down right into the seat closest to you.]

Uooooh! Can I have some!? [All that skipping through time makes a boi hungry you know. And look, he even has a fork already. Which he might be using to try to take some of said ramen.]

2/2

[capital-justice.livejournal.com]

[Flynn's face pretty much lights up at the sight of Luffy, after turning to face the voice. He's two for two in coming back after going home, isn't he?]

Luffy, you've returned!

DOES NOT.

[nextgen-hokage.livejournal.com]

[Naruto takes a quick peek to see who the hell was intruding on his ramen, before cracking a grin at him. He heard that he'd left, but didn't expect to see him so soon again.]

Oi, oi, go order your own if you want some!

[Well right at the clothing shop of course. As Selphie is about to walk in, Luffy is walking out with his new clothes and bumps into her in typical awesome bad ass who hasn't see you in a long time style.]

Hm? Ah, sorry. [And he actually begins to walk off before his memories start flooding back into his mind of her all at once.]

[OOC: Hmmm. And I'm not one hundred percent sure actually. The characters are being kind of stubborn and refusing to stand directly by each other to really tell properly. BUT! I'm gonna say he has grown. Probably not a WHOLE lot since Hancock is 6'3" and he's still shorter than her, but probably a few inches. ffff.]

[gomugomunopwn.livejournal.com]

[So of course he's going to INSTANTLY turn around and give the biggest of grins once he realizes.]

SELPHIE!? Wow you look exactly the same from when I left! I bet you've gotten stronger though. [Yeah a lot stronger. It's been like... four days.]

[gomugomunopwn.livejournal.com]

[He hugs her back without hesitation. D'aaw it's good to see you too Nami.]

How long was I gone for...? [Since everything seems to have gone to Hell in a hand basket.]

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[Well it's not every day that someone's exclaiming her name that loudly but as her head snaps in that direction, she's grinning excitedly before running the rest of the way.]

Luffy! You're back! And... you're bigger! [She looks him over, sees that scar and stares at it briefly before looking at him with a questioning look on her face.]

What happened to you?
