[There's someone on the roof of house 6. He's not sure how he got there any more than anyone else probably is. At first, he just sits in bewilderment with his journal in his lap, dressed in newfeather pants.] Hello...? H-Helmeppo?
[He's already noticed the wings. It's just taking a little while to kick in. There's also certain implications

Who dares to assault me and block my path?!
[Have a kick, haki powered. Really, you just don't go and block the path of an empress with your body after falling from a rooftop, man.]

Huh? GWAH!
[Coby really is flying now, at least until gravity takes over again and he comes crashing back to the ground. Had that been Boa Hancock? Certainly not...]
Reply
Certainly yes, that was Boa Hancock. Coby even gets a second view as she actually bothers to stalk whatever she kicked to see who it was. The face of someone who dared to block her path is one she wants to memorize here.]

H-H-H-H-H-Hancock-sama! A-ah... your highness! Empress! Ah... [How is he even supposed to address her face-to-face?] I AM VERY SORRY.

You should be sorry. You fell right in front of me so suddenly, I could have been hurt.
[She pouts cutely as if being nothing but a scared innocent girl. Why yes, it's all your fault for falling like that and surprise her.]

Good. Now, explain who you are and why do you know me... And what you were doing up there.
[Not that she particularly cares, really.]
Reply
But I don't know how I got on the roof. I just found myself there!

Not that it matters much. Hancock has things more important to leave clear before she even bothers with the hows of his presence there.]
You sail too far from safe waters, Master Chief Petty Officer. Or from waters where Marines hold any power.

[How in the world had he gotten that far away?]

It was just a figure of speech, dimwit.
[After all it's not as if they are anywhere near the sea or any water body in general.]
You are in a dangerous place. A dangerous place where you hold no authority, you should get that into your head before anything else.
[No going after her Luffy to arrest him for you.]
Reply
Yes, ma'am!
[Don't worry. Trying to arrest Luffy is the last thing on his mind right now.]
Reply
She hums for a second, looking at him seriously. Almost accusingly. Offer help or ignore him? Or even better, maybe turn him into stone and leave him there? Aah, but he has been respectful to her, maybe she could overlook it for a bit. And probably Luffy wouldn't like her doing that without a real provocation.]
You! Show me the book you have with your name on it.
[No, it's not a question, it's an order. And she expects him to obey right away... No, he is not going to get further hints. Better pray to have the journal somewhere close to him.]
Reply
[He fumbles around for the book in question. It's fallen somewhere on the ground nearby and he grabs it up to hand it over.]

There is a basic guide regarding where we are and how things work here. You are capable of learning at least that, aren't you?
[If he has enough brain for it. Anyway, Marines should be used to that, learn a bunch of things and follow them blindly. This should be a piece of cake for him.]
You will probably meet others around at one point that you may recognize if you do know me.
[She's not going to say who unless he asks though.]
Reply
Then she mentions other familiar faces and he can't HELP but ask.]
Like who, ma'am?
