[Action/Written/Accidental Voice] ...also, it's forward-dated a bit

[skulljokelol]

[Today has been a massive influx of good news and bad news, stress on top of relief; it's too much to process at once and he gives up trying for the time being, opting for a much needed nap instead.

He dreams of a bloody straw hat and is unsure if he dreamed it at all.

The thought reminds him of other dreams-he's-half-certain-aren't-dreams-at-all

That's gotta be uncomfortable but whatever you're playing is really pretty! What's it called?

[Voice]

[skulljokelol]

[He'll get to this a little later, sounding vaguely amused.] So this was recording after all then, neh? I'm glad the performance was passable, in that case.

Mm... what was it now... Last of the Wilds, I believe it was called. The library has an excellent selection of music, and I learned it there.

[Voice]

[boomchucka]

Sure was but hopefully you'll get that sorted out soon.

Last of the Wilds huh? It doesn't really sound wild though. It sounds more like you're on a boat in a river or something like that. Maybe sailing on the ocean suits it better.

[Voice]

[skulljokelol]

Ah, but an ocean can be just as wild, you see! It reminds me of just that, actually. And perhaps a storm.

[Your playing is relaxing, Brook, with the effects not just limited to you.

Sanji's out of his room - again - though instead of slipping into the kitchen he pauses at the living room. He's never heard this song before.]

That one was nice. [He says this from behind, approaching, after the skeleton's finished] A new one?

[Action]

[skulljokelol]

[He glances back slightly as Sanji approaches, then nods.] I picked it up a few weeks ago, though I did little more than practice it until now. I think I like it quite a bit myself.

[Action]

[oda_hates_me]

[A hum. He backtracks for the couch, sitting on the arm]

The practice paid off. [Oh who he is kidding? Brook could've picked up the song that morning and he wouldn't know the difference.]

Got anymore pieces in ya?

[Action]

[skulljokelol]

[Amused hmph.] Now what kind of a musician would I be if I answered that with a negative?

[He starts to play this.]

[Action]

[mikangirl]

[Ohai, just hacking those filters of yours. And blinking at the second message, before wandering out into the living room. She'll wait patiently for a break between songs.]

[Action]

[skulljokelol]

[Give him a couple of minutes and there's one, followed by a yawn. He idly taps out a few random notes, trying to pick another song.]

[Action]

[mikangirl]

[She wonders if there'll ever be a time when every Straw Hat is well rested, really.]

Didn't get much sleep out there, huh?

[Action]

[skulljokelol]

[Try for the week before that too. >.>]

Enough to function. I think it's starting to catch up with me now.

[Nothing at all.]

[flicker_flash]

[She's glad you're back home. And thinking with a faint pang of homesickness for the trolls at court, who are generally a good two feet taller than they appear to the human eye and have just as much difficulty finding a decent bed because of it.

It's a story she might have shared one day, in her own way. But today, she has nothing to say to you at all. Because she doesn't think you want to hear it.

So she just listens.]

[Is still something]

[skulljokelol]

[If he weren't so tired, he might have bothered to search you out for a Talk, you silly little girl.

Even if it's not today, he'll be speaking with you eventually. They can talk about that other stuff once the air is clear again.]

[Voice / Private]

[markofthewise]

Tired, mostly. Maybe I need to finally get out of bed and go visit people.

[He says this at about 11 AM in the morning. Usually he's up and at it six hours ago.]

How's Chopper? [Who is half the reason Sokka is saying this from the comfort of his bed. What a fight!]

((ooc: Bil will tag in later, promise!))

[Voice / Private]

[skulljokelol]

Yohohoho... I think that I know the feeling. It's good to keep busy.

He's sleeping it off. I know he's very upset about the whole thing, but he can afford to worry about all of that later, once he's mobile again. [Mwah, oh how the table to turned. For once it's the crew telling their doctor he has to rest.]

((ooc: No worries, I'm headed to bed for now anyways!))

[Voice / Private]

[markofthewise]

Oh. Well have you guys found a doctor to check up on him yet?

[Voice / Private]

[skulljokelol]

Nami-san has some small medical expertise that should cover it for now, but we do live next door to another doctor. If we need a third opinion, we could always ask him, I suppose.
