[Voice] Forward dated to late morning

[gomugomunopwn]

[When the journal’s video feed starts, it shows an unconscious Luffy laying face first on the ground, groaning as he begins to wake up from his mallynapping. It takes a few moments, but he groggily lifts his head, looking over to the journal, before reaching to grab it. The view goes obscure and starts to flip and tumble for a few seconds before Luffy’s full face comes into view. He looks tired, but he grins hugely regardless.]

So the orange goes into this bar full of bananas and makes a banana friend. After they have a few drinks the orange says “Want me to pay for it?” but then the banana just shakes his head and go “No. Let’s split it!”[And then Luffy just… bursts out laughing because apparently that was really funny and stuff. Which it ttly was.] You get it!?

Oh, but guys! You picked up my hat right? The “beep beep” robots didn’t take it did they? It’s really important.

[GEEZ NAMI! Can't you take a hint!? He was hoping she would come home just from that, but he'll just do it the regular way.]

Nami... don't you think it's time to come home though?

[...she was afraid of that.]

Luffy...

[And then stopping and standing there awkwardly, because the whole mess with Zoro isn't one she really knows how to explain.]

Nami. Everytime I try to run off and do things on my own you always tell me to trust my nakama and they'll help me through it.

You don't have to come home now, but how long are you gonna stay out here?

I--






[...well played, Captain.]

[It's more complicated when the problem is with nakama. But it's not Zoro's fault, either. She can't-- it's not fair, is it? To the rest of the crew.

She really doesn't see how they can help. But the key word is trust.

...and it's lonely out here.]

Just... all right. You're right.

Just give me a few more hours. I have to finish up here.

[He nods. Phew, that actually worked.]

Ah, okay!

...

You know... I kinda get how you feel though. About what happened. [Kinda sorta. He's been through those love experiments too and stuff. Not on the level Nami was on thank God, but still.]

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

[Yes it worked. |D And now as a result she's going to get mallynapped before she ever gets home, look what you did]

...you do?

[She's having trouble computing this. :|a]

[howtobeaboss.livejournal.com]

[I didn't know it would worked. ;_;]

Yeah! You know every Valentines Day there's an experiment right?

Well I remember being in one with Meryl and another one with Hancock... It's kinda weird afterward isn't it? Not feeling that way anymore? [Since she was married to both Zoro and Sanji during it, he's gonna treat it as a love experiment kinda. As a way to relate and stuff.]

Yeah, Luffy. It's like that.

[Or not. But she understands what he's trying to do, anyway.]
