[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!

But he said you have lots of kinks.

[freezes]

W-why is Marco talking to Greece-san about this sort of thing...

He brought it up! He was hitting on me and I told him to stop because you were back and he said you'd find it kinky because you have lots of kinks under the modesty. [All. The. Deadpan. EVER.]

[.............................]

So is that what Marco wants to know about...? Ah, how bold, I'm not sure I can admit such things aloud.

[Arches an eyebrow. And stuffs a cracker in Japan's mouth. Wow. Like that huh.]

[Noms it...]

D-don't assume anything!

[Sighs.] Then tell me what it is, please.

A f-furry? [SOB]

...That is someone who is... quite interested in anthropomorphic animals.

I don't get it. So is it like zoans or not?

Um... It is more like Chopper-san than Marco... It is like... Ah, wait. I will draw something...

[Takes out his communicator and

draws a catgirl]

[Headtilt. He doesn't know whether to be miffed or what even.]

Okay but... [Snaps his fingers.] Like fishmen and mermaids? But ahh... mammals?

Ah... yes, I believe that makes sense. [nods]

So they would dress as such, or admire... art of others like that... Things like that.

So then I'm not a furry? Birdie? Whatever that combination would be?

...That is complicated. But no, I do not believe so. If Marco were, he would have wings out of his back somehow, and his talons would be permanent... [imagining tengu-like Marco............]

[Switches into hybrid.] Like so?

Ah... Y-yes, like that.

So you like this?? [Pokes with a wing.]

Ah did I give you a complex after all?

[B-blushing and waves that wing away]

I-I like Marco no matter how he chooses to appear...

[Smirks and tugs Japan close with two wings.]

Is that so? [But he's super pleased with this.]

...Yes. [It is. But iyaaaan... But okay he can lean into that subtly.]

[Gentle nuzzles for cute Japan!]

I'll keep that in mind. Thanks Bushido.

I am simply being honest.

[He enjoys the silent for a little bit.]

I am not sure if Marco should talk to Greece-san about such things in the future...

Oh? He started it.

Why not?

...

[Just thinks on that while sorting thoughts LOL oh Greece why are you so. Greece like]

He is... too open to say things...
