[As a certain broomhead someone has been spreading around the emo bug- thanks, by the way- Usopp is today invested in the sketching of a certain ship recognizable to some. You know, a nice picture of it not encased in flame. << He'll probably be trying to transfer it to one of his new sketchbooks later but for now he is content. Gdit Merryyyyyyyy

... Pretty good sketch. [more than good, actually, but that's not the point at the moment. Why that, right now?]

[voice] 1/2 pft, icons.

[sniperkingftw]

Ah, thanks. [Damn straight it's more than good. ... He knows what you're thinking, Sanji, it's a two-way street.]

[voice] 2/2 (I've figured it out. Sanji- xray eye. Usopp- can smell your thoughts)

[sniperkingftw]

Felt kind of like sad kitten... Just thought of her yesterday is all. [Merryyyyyy~]

[voice] they could probably have this conversation just by staring at each other

[oda_hates_me]

Nothing wrong with that. [a long pause, and then said casually]

Any reason right now? Or just coincidence?

[voice] - I swear, I'm not stalking you. Really. <__<;;

[Being the artist she is, Miyabi can't help but be interested when a rather marvelous sketch begins to appear on the pages of her journal. Wow, Usopp, you're very talented; Miyabi is impressed! But wait, did he just say "Nami"? Oh, this must be one of the pirates she vaguely knows... Time to go fishing.]

Is this your ship? You draw very well, mister.

[voice] Of course not. >> I never stalk you either.

[sniperkingftw]

[PFT hi there voice. Guess that was kind of an open risk, whups.]

Oh, thanks! [...] She, ah, used to be our ship. This is the Going Merry. Pretty rough sailing in the Grand Line, though, and we didn't have a real shipwright to fix her in time.

But our new ship is really good to us, too.

[Voice] - Clearly that wasn't you outside my window, amirite? :|

[chiisaichou]

[WELL, TOO BAD. Now you're stuck with her. Miyabi raises a brow curiously. She senses the pause and she can't help but be a little curious. Uh oh, does she really want to test the waters?]

It's a lovely ship...What happened to her - if you don't mind my asking, mister.

[She stares right at the picture of the ship for a while, committing it to memory. Miyabi got seriously lucky, it'd be a lot easier to plan her surprise this way, with the ship staring her in the face like that. Now she doesn't have to ask what it looks like. Because that'd be kind of suspicious... She is glad you have another ship, though.]

[Voice] Course it wasn't.

[sniperkingftw]

[The waters are less angsty than they used to be, at least.]

No, I don't mind. You can call me Usopp, too. [Why, why storytime, you say?] Merry was... a really brave ship. She took us places that people couldn't reach with ships five times her size, even. But I guess that doing that kind of dangerous stuff wasn't very good for her, even if she still wanted to keep sailing. There was- a lot of damage. Ha, and I'm not very good at fixing ships, I guess. By the time we found a shipwright, she was... [;^;. Oh. Uh.]

Well, she made it out one last time and saved us then, so it would have been cruel not to let her rest.

[Hi, there. Chopper's feeling a little better today, so he'll be scanning the journals to see what he's missed.]

...Is that Merry?

[Voice]

[sniperkingftw]

You bet.

[Voice]

[tanukipoint]

It looks just like Merry! You're amazing, Usopp!

[Voice]

[sniperkingftw]

Of course! It has to be amazing if it's for the Merry, right?

How are you feeling?

[Voice]

[mikangirl]

[...she'd be annoyed that you mentioned that whole weapon + fight thing publicly, Usopp. But frankly, after the Kefka situation, it's hardly a secret. Not that she did much there except take a few years of Sanji's life, but still. ...and that picture.]

Did you know one of the drinks at the bar is called the Going Merry?

[Voice]

[sniperkingftw]

[Eh, he considered filtering, but then he got distracted. Shiny things, you know. Besides. That's totally more interesting.]

It is?

[Voice]

[mikangirl]

Yeah. They had a name-the-drink contest. I won it.

[Voice]

[sniperkingftw]

Well of course you did!
