[THAT snaps him awake.]

O-oi, you know me? [opens the journal now to peer inside. And Xion is treated to a much, much younger looking face.

Maybe she knows Zeff]

Um, Miss? Have you seen a really tall, shitty ol' geezer with two big mustaches? [frowns mightily] He's not supposed to leave me here.

[ AKJDGHLKJASHFLUHAD--

STAY CALM, XION. she reigns in the freak out that would otherwise take place, and though her eyes widen, she just takes a deep breath and masters herself. ]

You must mean Zeff... no, I haven't, and I'm pretty sure he's not here. You're in a place called Luceti, and the thing you're holding is a journal you can use to communicate with everyone else who lives here.

My name is Xion. Do you need help?

[that's the second time he's heard that, and Sanji is very tired of those words]

Why wouldn't he be here?! He's not gonna leave me on some island!

This isn't an island. It's ... a totally different world. The Malnosso kidnapped you and brought you here, like they did with all the rest of us.

That's impossible. And how can there be different worlds? [lady, he knows you're a girl but c'mon. He's ten, not two]

... I've seen them. I've been to so many of them. [ smiling a little. she isn't bothered by his recalcitrance ]

Listen, we can talk about it later. Right now, you need to get out of the woods and to someplace safe. And warm, too.

[it's rude to call a girl a liar... and she's kinda nice. So instead of more raw resistance, she's treated to a pout]

I'm following a bird-dog right now.

A bird ... dog ...? Oh, it must be the wings... you've probably noticed by now that you have them too, right? The Malnosso put those on all of us. If that dog has wings, then it must be a resident of the village... so it can probably lead you back. If you start to see a town, you'll know you're going in the right direction.

Why? [he means in regards to the wings, if Xion can tell]

And yeah, there's a town!

[voice] poppetry March 13 2010, 07:48:33 UTC
[ nnnot quite. ] Why what? About the wings, you mean?

Good! Let me know when you reach it. Maybe I can meet you there with some warmer clothing... if that's alright.

Uh-huh. [now that a lot of the excitement of magic journals and people being wrong about Zeff has died down, Sanji's giving in to whatever is still in his system and the rain]

Someone named Katara wants to meet me... but I can see you too. [pause] If you want. [gotta be polite, gotta be polite]

[ oh god, he's so cute, but his tiredness is worrying her. ] No one's really sure why the Malnosso give us these wings. I've heard a few theories, though. I think they might just be to keep track of us, though it's impossible to know for sure.

Anyway, no, it's okay! As long as someone will meet you there, that's fine. I just want to make sure you're being taken care of. You'll need to find a place to stay, too, now that I think about it.

[hones in on that last part]

I'm not gonna stay long. I need to find Zeff and then get back on the Baratie. [firmly] He can't run it without me.

... Sanji ... Sanji, I'm sorry, but you can't go home. You're stuck here. We all are. I ... I could lie to you, and tell you that you'll find him and get back to your ship, but ... you're my friend. I want to tell you the truth. You deserve that much.

[voice] oda_hates_me March 13 2010, 08:04:58 UTC
No we're not. [she's a girl, but uh...]

I don't know who you are. How can we be friends?

And you haven't seen him, so how would you know?!
