"Thanks!" Sora took the offered lolipop and crumpled the wrapper before popping it into his mouth.

He'd only arrived a few minutes later than he'd said, after juggling a few distractions and managing to get his rear into gear and actually go up onto the deck. It seemed as if Luffy had made good on his promise of food, in the meantime. Settling with his back against the crow's nest railing, Sora tried to get comfortable.

"Sorry I couldn't get anything to help us out, much. Rikku didn't know of anything that could be used for what we're doing." After eyeing the fishing rod for a moment, the brunette finally acknowledged the rather odd choice of equipment. "What's this for?"

"I'm sure we can find one easily anyway!" Luffy replied with a chirp, not at all affected by the lack of said equipment, "Sky Whales are pretty big, so we should see one easily even from here!" Though Luffy had ignored the obvious fact that they were still grounded and docked in Melior while Sky Whales were supposedly nearly a thousand feet or so in the air - er, higher air, more or less. "I'm sure we can find one if we try hard enough!"

He then blinked at and looked at the fishing rod he had snagged from somewhere before heading here, staring it for a while and trying to think of something to make use of the item before he just shrugged it off and grinned again. "I'm not too sure what we can use it for but I think we can think of something up eventually!" It was obvious that nothing could get Luffy's high spirits down... everything except meatloaf, that was.

Picking the rod up, Sora turned it over a few times in his hands. It looked as if it had a pretty good amount of line to it, and a hook that was carefully stuck into the bottom of the handle.

"I used to go fishing all the time when I was a kid," Sora recollected to himself, then smiled and unhooked the line.

"Heh. . " Cocking his arm back, the young navigator gave it a good cast, and whooped as the line when zooming with a loud whir from the rigging.

"... Ow!" Melior. Just. Really. Wasn't. Neku's. City.

He'd taken to going up to the crow's nest now and again for a bit of peace and respite from the rest of the ship, although he spent increasing time in the brig due to the cooling weather and winds.

Anyway, he'd just settled with in an unobtrusive corner of the crow's nest not long ago with a good comic and a new station he'd discovered that played great instrumental pieces, when the bustle and chatter had bled over from the Winding Way in the form of two boys that--well, he didn't know one of them, but he looked more than a little unhinged anyway, and Sora had been with him--who knew what they were up to.

Now that he'd found out, he was sort of wishing he'd up and left or just stayed in the brig. There was something caught in his hair (hadn't reached his scalp, thank god, because was that a fishing rod?!) and it was trying to tug his headphones off.

He clamped his hands over his head to ward off impending disaster and hoped this would end without blood. "What the hell are you
