The colorful presents for that weird holiday were everywhere these days; he could hardly walk down the street without tripping over one. Annoying. Whatever, though, they're just a bunch of giftwrapped

[EARTHQUAKE. 8||| Normally Zoro would sleep right through one of those, but the space inside the box is small enough that he bangs around in a fashion similar to a pinball and jolts indignantly awake pretty instantly.

Flinging a steadying hand against the 'wall'.]

What the hell-?!

[...He's inside some kind of wildly careening closet. A moment's confusion-did he fall asleep in a closet, he doesn't think so-before he bangs sharply on the wall.]

Oi! Open up! [He is, of course, groping for his swords with his other hand. >:| If he's not let out in the next few seconds, he's busting out.]

*__* Sorry for the delay, the holidays are kicking my ass

[strayswordsman]

Ggh! [>8| Being thrown to the ground from a respectable height while trapped in a narrow box with no good way to brace yourself =/= FUN, LUFFY! Good thing he's got a head as hard as yours is rubbery-

...Wait. Luffy? ...>>8|| DID YOU PUT HIM IN HERE AND TOSS HIM AROUND, IDIOT-CAPTAIN? HE'LL CUT YOU.]

Haaah?! Don't play dumb with me! [He's not even gonna warn you to back up because if you get hit by the blast when he cuts loose, you damn well deserve it. >:| Right. Drawing Wadou now- - -

...The box is too narrow to draw a sword orz orz orz.]

[choru]

[Korea receives a present. Korea opens the present. Korea stares at the contents of the present.]

This... Are you really my present...?

[strayswordsman]

[Zoro is in no mood to thank Korea for freeing him from the box-not after spending a NOT-IMPORTANT-REALLY-VERY-SHORT amount of time trying to break out when he didn't even have enough room to draw one of his swords. He was this close to managing it on his own, anyway. Bah!

Clambers out of the box, scowling ferociously.]

No.

[choru]

[Korea watches the swordsman crawl out of the box, thinking about the implications. He tried to press Zoro back into the box, already prepared to wrap the ribbons back into place.]

They got my present mixed up with somebody else! They're supposed to send me big bro for Christmas so you need to get back in the box.

LOLOL Korea XDD

[strayswordsman]

[/does not go back in the box 8||| You can push all you want, Korea, he is a WALL. A very irritated wall who plants a hand on Korea's face and holds him away.]

I'm not anyone's present, idiot! Cut that out, I'm not going back in there!

Sup. Apparently LJ swallowed an entire day of Somarium posts or something 8|

[Nami's more than a little wary of the weird and inexplicable goings on in this place.

On the other hand, a wrapped present just lying innocently on a bench somewhere is perfectly normal in every way, right? At least, she'll spend all of four seconds rationalising its appearance, because that, dear friends, is a gift. With no tags. Which means her chance of finding the owner is pretty small.

How tragic. Well, maybe if she looks inside she'll find more clues as to who it could belong to.

...either that, or a really nice pair of shoes. >_> Opening now.]

Good job, LJ. -__- /kicks it--and welcomes you 8D

[strayswordsman]

[Look out, Nami, once you start to pull loose the lid it actually explodes off, forcefully expelling a big puff of white smoke in your face-as well as a startled, just-rudely-awakened Zoro who really, really, really shouldn't have been able to fit in there-]

Wh-aaaagh-!!

[-and who crashes into body-slams flattens you with extreme prejudice.

...>.> If it's any consolation, he's just as surprised as you are...?]

1/2

[namigational]

EYAAAA- [She sees your Wh-aaaagh and raises it with some shrill screaming of her own. :| In fact, Zoro can have an elbow to the face while she flails at the white smoke, screaming suddenly cut off by having one(1) swordsman collide with her in extremely uncomfortable ways.

Hitting the pavement now.]

Re: Good job, LJ. -__- /kicks it--and welcomes you 8D

[namigational]

[Oh and hey, a face full of white smoke means she has no idea who just flattened her, really-- (though admittedly she might have belted him anyway. It is Zoro.) But all Nami knows is there's a great lump of a man who apparently managed to tackle her. From a small shoe-sized box.

...yeah, she'll question the physics later. For now, she is trying to thump you hard.]

Get off me!
