I’ve an announcement of interest to the inhabitants of Pineapple Island.

If you are in need of assistance during Starscream’s absence, you will be welcome to ask me. I offer you what aid I am able, and I assure you that there is no price to be paid for it---he and I have an agreement.

I do not expect any emergencies, but it is not as if requests

[A night's sleep and some Eastern District sunlight has more or less adjusted Dally's mood to neutral...and, after storming off from their conversation a few nights ago, just seeing your 'face' again has put him in the mood to argue, Mr. V.

[Afterall, he hates running off from conflict.]

Still stickin' your nose in other people's business, huh Mask?

A CHALLENGER APPEARS?

[crazylikefawkes]

This much is my business.

[greasyderelict]

Right, protecting your little pineapple friends.

S'pretty important, i'n it?

[crazylikefawkes]

While I do not doubt the islanders are able to adquately defend themselves, it is important; a duty entailed by an old alliance.

[greasyderelict]

An alliance to keep the fruit unbruised, huh? Noble of you.

[By the way, he has figured out by now that the islanders are, indeed, not actually pineapples.]

[crazylikefawkes]

And the island afloat.

[greasyderelict]

Wow. Tough task you've got there, keepin' a whole island floating.

S'not like it's all they do or nothin'.

[crazylikefawkes]

[V laughs.]

Wait until you've been here one week. This is the City of Change, after all; you may see the sky fall, or mountains down to dust.

[greasyderelict]

City of change, huh?

[He snorts a little.]

I thought we were talkin' bout islands here...

This place ain't really a city, then right? More like a country or somethin'? S'what it looks like to me...

[crazylikefawkes]

Pineapple Island is a part of it, and make no mistake---it is still a city, for all its similarities to a city-state.

I WANT MY OWN. xD

[greasyderelict]

Doesn't look similar to me.

I'll ask Lunnaei later.

[crazylikefawkes]

I suppose it is strange, but the fact remains; Nautilus is its own entity, without a wider world. Without context, you could not call it a country.

[greasyderelict]

A different world, just like they said...

[He winces a little, rubbing his face with both hands and giving a weak groan.]

...awesome...

[crazylikefawkes]

I can certainly understand any intial skepticism.

[greasyderelict]

Wouldn't call it skepticism. I'm just still waitin' to wake up...

[Really, it made sense to him that this could all be one long, vivid dream. Last he could remember, he'd been shot down in the streets...so, for all he knew...he was just in coma somewhere, living life through one fucked up dream...]

[crazylikefawkes]

The dreamers of the day are dangerous men.

You will wait for some stretch; I have been here for over eighteen months.
