[It has been a difficult week, and Brook is finding it difficult to sleep. As he is wont to do when this happens, Brook is looking for distractions. Around four in the morning he leaves the house for a long walk, so if for some reason you happen to be out near the edges of the forest, you might run into a skeleton. He'll probably be out there well ( Read more... )

worse month ever, it's nostalgic really, no foreshadowing whatsoever, tea makes everything better

[Zoro is doing early-morning weight-lifting in the backyard when Brook comes home, ignoring the bandages covering wounds from the fight with Hazama wrapped around his head and various limbs.

He's only hefting a few measly tons, but he still looks briefly arrested when he spies movement out of the corner of his eye. Then he relaxes minisculely when he sees it's their skeleton rather than their reindeer doctor (FROM HELL), and keeps lifting.]

...Oi.

[There is a power limit here. And Zoro is injured. He will possibly never stop being in awe of how much strength their swordsman has.]

Good morning, Zoro-san. Our doctor is still asleep, I take it?

Morning. [grunting as he lifts with a sidelong look back at the house] ...Hopefully. [then glancing back at you] You're out early.

I had difficulty sleeping, so I decided to go for a stroll to pass the time.

[Ginko has been sleeping in the forest of late, with the good weather. He woke with the sun-- and has been slowly meandering his way back to the town for some food.

Perhaps their paths will cross while it's still early, near the forest's edge.]

[Perhaps they will! As he's not quite ready to leave yet, Brook is huuming a little tune while examining those sunglasses. He turns his head when he catches movement, sounding amused when he sees who it is.]

Yohohoho... Good morning, Ginko-san! I must say that I am more accustomed to bumping in to you on our roof than out here.

Heh... hello, Brook.

[a smile] I suppose you're right. [that or being dragged in for a meal with Sanji by main force]

[And it is here that he realizes he actually hasn't spoken with Ginko since before he died because the mun fails. He will just be falling into step then.]

But it's good to see you in any place. Are you out for a stroll, or do you have a destination in mind?

[Sonny just so happens to be up early enough to hear that proverbial rooster crow. She was usually up by this time back in Wisconsin, anyway. Rubbing a little sleep out of her eyes, she flips through her journal, hearing a snippet of Brook's voice. It's too brief to decipher his message, but she could just barely tell it was him.]

Brook? Is that you?

[Wow, he really needs to work on his filters if people can tell it's him making them without them even being hacked. He's always eager for something to improve with though.]

Yes, it is me, Sonny-san. You're up rather early today!

Re: [Voice] sofar_sogr8 July 6 2010, 19:51:36 UTC
Yeah. I guess I went to bed a little too early again! Heheh!
[Sonny is completely unaware that her journal decided to hack his post. Blissfully unaware is Sonny!]

Do you usually get up this early?

[He supposes there are worse things it could've hacked, so he pays it no mind~]

I do enjoy catching the sunrise! Sunsets as well, but other than that I mostly catnap throughout the day.

[ oh my.

When Xion sees this message a little later in the morning, she's not really sure what to do with it at first. SHE KNOWS HE KNOWS and this makes her feel Very Awkward. what to do.

but, well... it's Brook. It has to be okay, right? ]

Um... sure. I'd like that.

[About an hour or two later, after he's had his nap:]

I'm delighted to hear it! I have a delightfully red checkered table cloth we can use if you would like to have our tea outside in the sunshine.

[ what. Brook. that's adorable. Xion tries and fails to hold back a quiet laugh over his "delightful" table cloth. ]

Okay! That sounds really nice, actually. Where should I meet you?

Are you familiar with the spot in town where the river forks? It's not too far off from behind the clinic, but there's a large stone there that would make a decent table.

... [oh Brook]

Skeleton, we're working on your filters later.

[He's a cross between pleasant and apologetic.] I don't appear to have much of a knack for them on my own, do I?

[Filtered] oda_hates_me July 6 2010, 20:09:55 UTC
It's got nothing to do with knack.

You're just not using what you have. [srsly, Sanji's certain Brook could reach 100% in a few weeks]

[Filtered] skulljokelol July 6 2010, 20:21:00 UTC
Your confidence in me warms my heart, Sanji-san! Or rather it would, if I had one. Yohohoho!

But I digress. [He's been poking at that filter idly since Sonny overheard him, and now it's bumped up to about 72%] Thus far, that has been the best I have been able to accomplish if I can manage to focus long enough.
