[...reluctant video / action]

[So at this point in time, Gilbert has realized that expecting anyone to recognize him by voice while he's much younger than he should be isn't going to happen. And well, even with the additional video, well, that helps a little. So he's eying the video feed warily. Housemates and guests? He's in the kitchen at the table, a forgotten cup of tea ( Read more... )

Tell me about it.

[Unfortunately Smoker's reduced to sucking on candy cigarettes. He's not a happy camper.]

[Oh man Gilbert hasn't even considered that option. All he knows is that earlier when he tried, he nearly choked himself to death. And once he claws himself up from where he's fallen, he'll look curiously at the face on the video screen and nod.] It's a little inconvenient all around, isn't it?

Extremely. It's been about two decades since I wasn't smoking. Tsk.

That's a long time. [He's righting the chair and then settling back in it so he can go back to leaning his arms on the table.] I mean, I tried to quit for a while. [But then there was a very stressful situation and he started again.] Does it make you cough now too?

Yeah. And choke. Even when I'm not trying two at once. Maybe if I went back to cigarettes instead of cigars...

[He nods at that but then blinks. Cigars? Two at once? He couldn't even handle one of his regular cigarettes with his newly younger lungs. Huh. Well, it's all a matter of relativity, right? Or... something.] Maybe. You could try it. [Pause.] Though people do say it's bad for you. [A shrug of his shoulders at that. It's obvious yet to stop him permanently, so Gil's not really one to talk.

Tch whatever. I'm usually made of smoke so I don't really care.

Made of smoke? [That sounds like a looot of smoke. But Gilbert nods.] With any luck, this will be over soon. [Please, please, please let it be over soon.]

It's my devil fruit ability.

And yeah, hopefully. Hn.

[Blink.] Devil fruit?

A cursed fruit. You eat one and you're cursed for life so that you can never swim again, but you gain a power.

You can never swim again? [That's an odd consequence.] So your power is turning into smoke?

Right. And controlling it around me.

[Gilbert nods, considering this. Powers with consequence? That's a motif her understands pretty well. Hmm.] So are there other people who have different powers because of it?

Right. Every devil fruit is different. I'm the only one with a smoke devil fruit. Some of the other ones out there are ice, rubber, earthquakes, magma, sand, they're pretty varied.
