[video] Back with the chocobos / All the jokes
[In a scene that might be familiar to some, Marco is back in the barn, with five baby chocobo. Not quite so baby now, he might be able to fit one of them in a bag on his back, but not all of them. He can't even fit them all under one wing, but that's all right, the others he's dealing with in different ways. It might not be immediately obvious, but the loss of Ace is hitting him hard. Normally he'd go into a rage to kill things, but he doesn't seem to feel it's worth it.]
Ace's name is up on the memorial wall. He might come back... I hope so.
[There's a much too long pause in which he looks a world away and scoops up a chocobo fitted with a Spade collar.]
Ah so how about some bird jokes, eh?
You've probably all heard this one: Why did the chicken cross the road?
To get to the other side.
Why didn't the turkey cross the road?
He didn't want to be a chicken.
Why did the ducks cross the road?
To prove they could do it better than the chicken.
Why did the chicken cross the road twice?
It was a double-crosser.
Why did the rooster cross the road?
To prove he wasn't a chicken.
A phoenix walks into a bar filled with a bunch of turkeys. He gives them a polite nod and then buys everyone a round of drinks. They crowd around their new friend and offer some peanuts. "Gobble gobble gobble?" they suggest. "No thanks," he politely declines, "I'm allergic." They offer him pretzels. "Gobble gobble gobble?" He takes a few of those and they continue on for hours. Eventually they run out, and just as he was about to leave, they look him up and down and ask, "Gobble gobble gobble?" He gives them a horrified look and explains, "No way! I'm not into that!"
Why did the marines arrest the turkey?
They brought it on suspicion of fowl play!

It is more that if I do not, Taiwan-san will notice and mention it for sure...

...She is quite fond of me. [Which isn't exactly saying his thoughts on the matter either.]

How would Marco tell this sort of thing to Haruta-san? [He's honestly curious]
[action]
Straight out. Haruta is the cutest, but not an idiot. As a commander of 100 pirates, she knows more than she lets on. Besides, she's older than Ace. If anything, I'd be the one more unnerved by her dating someone than vice versa, eh.
[ooc: I went with "she" but Hartua's gender is still up in the air so if I'm wrong when I find out I'll let you know.]
[action]
Hm... [That just puzzles Japan even further.]
I am not usually so direct. I believe to be direct would be even more startling... But if Marco would like to be direct... It is fine.
[action]
Eh? Are you sure? You don't have to tell her anything you don't want to, I mean she already seemed fine with the fact we're living together, [Actually she made Marco blush about that. Damn you Asians are always getting him...] but I don't want to do anything you're uncomfortable with.
[action]
It is not as if I am uncomfortable. [H-he likes Marco! And stuff!] ...Ah, but they are quite... [trails off. His family is insane Marco.]
[action]
[Marco's family is still crazier Japan, no worries.]
