[Someone's clearly playing with their dreamberry - the first thing the video catches as it flickers to life is a pattern of flowers across a grubby yellow t-shirt before the image spins dizzily to catch a flash of orange hair and then up to the sky, green leaves and orange fruit framing one side of the picture. Then there's a tired curse and the

*Usopp actually isn't paying any attention to his Dreamberry at all right now; he's in the process of finally installing that window in Luffy and Zoro's room (what do you mean it looks a little crooked? no, clearly that's just your imagination), hammering away...*

[warriorothesea]

*...but then he hears the sound of Zoro yelling on the roof, muffled though it is--did he just say "Nami"??* his first impulse is to open the window and ask Zoro directly, but--ugh. the window appears to be...stuck shut. dammit*

[warriorothesea]

*it only takes him another moment to remember the Dreamberry, though, and he pulls it from his pocket, at first only intending to call Zoro, though half a second later, he realizes there's no need, because whatever Zoro's reacting to probably came from the Dreamberry network. and sure enough, there are new posts. he selects the most recent video and takes a deep breath, hovering his finger over the play button for a moment, telling himself he shouldn't get his hopes up. for all he knew, Zoro was just taking a nap and had a nightmare about his debt or something...*

[warriorothesea]

*then the feed begins to play, and if that first flash of orange hair wasn't unmistakable enough, when Nami finally speaks there can be no doubt. it's really her--and she's in trouble?*

[video] / done

[warriorothesea]

*he stabs the call button immediately, not even sure it's connected before he starts talking* Nami? Nami?? What's happening?! Where are you??

*a pause with no reply, and he adds unnecessarily* It's me. Usopp!!

[video] 8D 1/2

[Calming down from near-panicked shrieking now and exiting a field-- and hopefully leaving certain scarecrows well behind. Was that Usopp's voice?

...sob. That makes three of you. Everyone's okay, right? Bright, bright smile.] Usopp!

I'm in an orange grove, there's a scarecrow trying to brain me with a rake, and I'm somewhere near Espoir--

--scratch that. [Cleared the trees.] I'm out of the grove. [Ducking a look over her shoulder and hoping Sanji's right.] Where are you? Are we all here?

[video] sorry for sporatic replies; I'm at work lol

[warriorothesea]

*and he can't help himself, at that smile, he breaks into a huge relieved grin, repeating her name to remind himself it's real; she's here* Nami.

[video]

[warriorothesea]

*flaps his hand as if that will shoo her to move a little further away from the grove--just in case* It'll probably stop chasing you if you're not in its, uh, territory.

*if Nami is paying attention, she might notice his smile falter a little, though he keeps grinning* Are we all--n-no. Not quite. Chopper's not around yet, and neither are Brook and Franky, but... *but at the rate Robin and Nami showed up, maybe it's not too much to hope the rest of their nakama won't be far behind*

*he starts moving again, dropping his hammer and nails on Zoro's bed and heading for the bedroom he shares with Sanji, grabbing his bag* Espoir? Okay. That's where I showed up, too. There's a village... *belatedly realizes something* Hey, you must have talked to Zoro too, right?

[video] That's fine! /o/ I'm actually off to bed |D

[namigational]

[Not the others? Her own smile falters at that, but she just focuses on getting the heck away from the orange orchard before she answers again. Sounding almost sheepish, really. You're right; the scarecrow did stop chasing her.] Zoro and Sanji-kun. Sanji's coming to get me, I think. Though I don't know if he's left yet, I only just spoke to him.

[video]

[warriorothesea]

Sanji's--did he leave already? Just a sec, Zoro's on the roof. *runs over to the window in his room, which opens just fine, and sticks his head out*

OOOIIII, ZORO!! COME ON, WE'RE GOING TO GET NAMI!!! *turns back to his Dreamberry and drops back to a normal volume* We can all come and find you. Ur. I guess you could meet us halfway... It's sort of a long walk, but there's a map on your Dreamberry thing, too.

*his brow furrows a little* I'm not really sure where Luffy is right now.

[video]

[namigational]

A map? [Interest piqued.] How do I get the map up? [And playing with more buttons to see if she can find it on her own.] But Luffy's here somewhere, right?

[video]

[warriorothesea]

*briefly explains how to access the map as he's walking down the stairs and it's easier to handwave that since the mun has no clue what to say, hur hur*

*nods* Oh, yeah, Luffy's here. He's just not here. *pauses and looks around* I don't think.

*opens the door and...magically the thread continues here*

[[ooc: hope that's not too confusing; we thought it would be easier to merge some of these threads since they're both going to meet Nami~]]

[ooc]

[namigational]

[[That's not a problem. :D Should I wait for Sanji to comment to that first?]]

[ooc]

[warriorothesea]

[[I think that would work best, yeah. Sanji's mun & I are both at work right now, so sometimes we get distracted by actual...work, haha. but hopefully she can respond soon!]]
