[Just another day, another time for Moro. Though usually quite content to keep her distance from humans (despite her growing fondness and affections towards the captives of Luceti, she was still incredibly hesitant to be trustful), today it seems she's lounging around just outside the village boundaries. She's even stretching and rolling around,

[Now, normally, Ace would make a dive bomb for that wolf, and cook it for dinner or something.

But watching it roll around was kinda cute, so he just sits behind a tree, carefully watching and chuckling.]

[biteoffherhead]

[Moro hears the chuckling, quickly righting herself and hunching over in a deep growl.]

[hiken_ace]

[Oh snap, caught.]

A-ah, my apologies. I didn't mean to bother you. [Bows. Yes, he is being polite to a wolf.]

[biteoffherhead]

[You'll find it a good call.]

What do you want.

[hiken_ace]

Nothing. I was just taking a walk through the forest. Though, if this is your terr-- [Hold up.]

Wait, is your name Moro?

[biteoffherhead]

It is.

[hiken_ace]

Ah, my brother Luffy told me about you. It's nice to meet you. [Bows.]

[biteoffherhead]

Luffy.

[Her instinct is to be at ease, with how familiar she is with him, but it only shows briefly before her dander is up again.]

You're his brother.

[hiken_ace]

[Crap, did he do something wrong?]

A-ah, yes I am. Is ah.....that bad?

[biteoffherhead]

[We're going to carefully dance around the direct answer to that.]

That foolish boy seems intent on getting himself killed with his tomfoolery.

[hiken_ace]

[He chuckles.] He is pretty stupid sometimes, huh?

[biteoffherhead]

Undoubtedly.

[hiken_ace]

Ah, if he's done anything stupid that harmed you, put you in harm's way, or anything else, I apologize for him. [Bows.]

[biteoffherhead]

[Moro laughs, and it's not a very comforting sound. It's cold, and dark, and bitter, even when it's good-humored as this one.]

That boy could not dream of harming me!

[Sure, he tried to drag her around, sure, he gave her a good hard punch, but she is tougher than nails and more stubborn than an ox.]

[hiken_ace]

[That's....kind of an unsettling laugh. Oh, well. He'll go with it.]

Yeah? You must be unbelievably strong, then.

[biteoffherhead]

Of course. I am the guardian god of the forests. I will crush any who harm this forest in my jaws!
