Monday

[concasse]

[It had been Sanji's idea to gather up the kids for a little story time -- a little "celebration" given their surprisingly good fortune, though he's careful not to phrase it that way (Ion's got it hard enough as it is).

So sometime during the night, he'll visit their room armed with snacks and hot cocoa, shooting both of them a grin.]

Oi, help me set this shit down somewhere.

[Ion refrains from asking about the beli -> gald conversion ratio and just, kind of, goes with it.]

That's huge! No wonder they went after you! But you escaped?

[concasse]

I don't even know what a yen is...

Though to be fair, that's how big it is now. Before? Tch, can't remember if I had one during Whiskey Peak.

[SURPRISE, NATSUO WAS RIGHT. SORTA.]

Not that it really mattered.

Zoro and Luffy took out the entire island, so no one turned us in.

[randori]

[ He's trying really hard to connect the dots here, but in the end, he's a SOL high school canon ]

Where did they take them out to...?

[fragileprophet]

I think what he's trying to say is that Zoro and Luffy were able to defeat the whole island in combat--it's an idiom!

[He beams. He's going to assume everyone just ended up unconscious and nobody died he doesn't like death.]

That's really impressive!

[concasse]

[The hilarious part is Ion is correct, no one actually died, the Straw Hats are that kind of pirate crew]

Ain't it? Luffy's ridiculous in a fight. You wouldn't think someone made of rubber would be that impressive, but no one can take him down.

... And I suppose that shitty swordsman isn't that bad, either. [A long bearing sigh] He better be decent with three swords.

[randori]

[ nts master one sword and eventually work his way up to three ]

And you fight with your legs, right? There's nothing more satisfying than kicking somebody in the face! It's the coolest!
