[He's got his journal open as he takes his usual walk through the forest, listening to the chatter and keeping an ear out for any news that's prevalent to him. Just the usual routine]

Now that we've got some warm weather, we really should head to the lake sometime. [it's directed at his crew, obviously, though he's not gonna mind intervention]Not ( Read more... )

[Brook was out heading for the library anyways when he heard this - doesn't take much thought to break into a run for the forest]

[He's not expecting to find him but he's hoping that he will, and he'll be damned if he doesn't at least try. They've been getting too used to all of this.]

[And here's someone else out in the forest doing much the same thing, though admittedly nowhere near as fast as the resident skeleton. First Sigmund and now Sanji; seems all the nice people that first said hello to her when she got here are being taken. ;_;

BUT she is doing the heroic thing as according to small children everywhere, which equates to tearing recklessly through the forest calling Sanji's name, because naturally she'll succeed where every other person in Luceti has failed, right? Right?]

[At some point Brook has to stop to take a breather, and it's while doing so that he hears her.]

...Katie-san?

[Familiar voice! Sup, Brook. Practically running into you now. She'll skid to a halt a few short feet away, hands on her knees and panting a little.]

No luck? [...It was pretty obvious from her calls what she's doing out here, sadly]

Oh, I had plenty of luck. [Just look at that forlorn face and guess which kind of luck.] But I found where he was, though. There was a mighty duel, i-it ranged all over.

[And if something has happened to Princess Sanji, she shall be very Put Out.]

[It wasn't with a man with six fingers, was it? :O]

[Sadly, he can't really manage to humor her on this one, though]

He'll be back. It's just a matter of waiting.

[She shall have to ask the Malnosso if any of them have such an affliction.]

[And she can't really manage to be patient.] But what if I don't want to wait?

Then you will have to learn to be. There are times when that is all one can do, whether you like it or not.

[...she could refute that. She'd try if she hadn't already been through this once already in the past fortnight. But this still isn't fair. And Brook might be right, but she can't really agree with him out loud and doesn't want to on general principle, so she'll just stare at the ground and scratch the back of her leg with one foot and try really hard not to look like she's upset.]

[Lack of reactions always give people away to him. After a moment he sighs.] I don't know about you, Katie-san, but I'm feeling a tad thirsty. Would you care to join me? From the look of things, you've been out here as long as I have.

Can we look a little longer first?

Of course. He might be just over this way - I hadn't checked there yet.

[You're so nice to little girls, Brook. You get a grateful smile even though she knows, deep down, that they won't be finding Sanji today. But at least they can say they looked.]
