006↠ ACTION

[concasse]

[It's sunny. And hot. And perhaps not the best weather to take a nap in while you're unabashedly unconscious.

... Which is too bad, seeing as Sanji's passed out under a tree located at the village's edge - clothes dirty and ruffled, no doubt collecting more dirt as he rolls in his uncomfortable slumber, the crook of his arm covering his eyes.

Go on. Wake him up. Be a good Samaritan.



And hell, even if you don't, Sanji will eventually stumble upon you -- or into you, if that's your thing. Later in the day he'll be all over the village insisting he's fine, no he's not drunk so stop trying to escort him back to bed. B| He can walk it off.]





[ooc: MALLYNAP EFFECT. Touch him and your character will share a memory with Sanji. It can be a memory of his or a memory of your character's; just specify in the subject line what you prefer. |D Any memory is free game, and the scope of it is at our discretion, but keep in mind both characters will view it until the memory ends or they escape the "boundary". (Just imagine the memory as a bubble and if a character walks far enough for whatever reason, they pop it.) Also note they're still in Luceti - no teleporting anywhere. Just assume the characters are mostly slack-jawed and staring at a tree for the duration.

I also endorse all time-breaking. Tis but a flimsy wall in our way.]

... I don't think that's true. [A more serious tone]

I don't think that's ever true. And even if you're used to something it can still hurt...

[concasse]

Maah, I suppose so... [Still, it helps to think he's been through enough that they'd have to try and scar him now.]

In any case-- [He shakes his head a little, glances at up at the sky] I'll get through this shitty experiment.

[toujoursfluer]

[She wonders if it's really all right. It's difficult to tell. But she knows well enough at least to pretend not to notice if things seem a little off]

What is the nature of it? [She can guess but she'd like to know, just in case. Not that she isn't willing to share unpleasant things with nakama but she would like to have more warning.]

[concasse]

Something to do with memories, I guess. [He glances at the ground, eventually placing his hands in his pockets]

It happens to anyone who touches me. Either we get one of my memories, or one of theirs.

[toujoursfluer]

[It's difficult to judge how to take this. Memories can be fascinating things, but also very personal and it's hard to tell exactly how he feels about this. What the best thing to say is.]

It will wear off eventually. And perhaps some good will come of it.

[What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, wasn't that the saying? Though she wishes it didn't have to be this way]

[concasse]

You really think so? [He mutters curiously, since his own thoughts run rather strict on this topic - he has no business peaking inside someone's head, bringing up secrets that deserve to be put to rest]

To be honest, seems pretty invasive.

[toujoursfluer]

[She looks away and her smile is fainter than before]

I suppose you're right. [Inspiring optimism was harder than it looked] Sorry, ne?

[concasse]

[He blinks at her, momentarily thrown by that reaction -- but then he starts warming up to a slight, fond smile]

You don't need to apologize, Robin-chan! Besides... [Even if it was invasive-] It was nice, getting to share a memory with you.

[toujoursfluer]

[Nice? No perhaps not. Nothing like that can ever be nice. She had the ability to make it so but few memories of that time are all together pleasant. Still--nice or not, it is good to see him smile and she can't help but return it]

I don't think we share enough, Sanji-kun. [She props her chin on her fist] Perhaps, when things return to normal [Or for what passes around here] we can make a few of our own?

[concasse]

But of course~! Nothing would give me greater pleasure than spending time with Robin-chwan~!

[toujoursfluer]

I'll look forward to it then, ne?

[And hopefully nothing too serious will come to interfere]
