I've learnt that camping out on the Mini-Merry is not good for my neck.  I need a long bath, too - it's not exactly the best space to have to stay for more than a couple of nights.  We're back now, just about, and everyone's safe.  See, Usopp; I said we'd make it back for your birthday

...so everything went okay? You'll be back soon?

[regal_azure]

Yes, all things considered it went quite smoothly.

[deadgirldropout]

I'm glad. It felt weird not to have all of you here.

[regal_azure]

It felt strange without all of you, too. I feel much happier surrounded by everyone.

[deadgirldropout]

Same here. I get...anxious. When people are missing.

[regal_azure]

Actually George, I was wondering if I could ask a favor of you. Would you mind doing a little combat training with me? Usopp mentioned that we might be good sparring partners.

[deadgirldropout]

...yeah, that sounds good to me. Sanji was just asking to see me use my scythe anyway, and I could use the practice!

[regal_azure]

Thank you very much, I appreciate it.

[deadgirldropout]

No problem! What sort of fighting do you do, anyway?

[regal_azure]

My weapons are ... a little difficult to describe, actually. They're long pieces of wire with jewels set in them, that I strike out with; it's sort of like a blade crossed with a whip. They require a great deal of agility and precision.

...hm. Interesting. Well, I'll look forward to seeing them!
