[Voice / Written]

Yo. I'm back. Longest month of my life, including that time I dyed my hair black.

Did anyone remember to water and feed Ace while I was gone? Take him for walks and make sure he got sun and all that?

[There's a pause and the fluttering of wings along with a mutter.] Damn this new book system is strange... [But he speaks back up again trying to sound more chipper.]

So what did I miss? Did the entire landscape change? Any new books about pirates at the library, eh?

[For those who know him well, Marco actually sounds pretty exhausted for a change, and lacking some of his usual ridiculousness.]

Pretty damn sure I do.

... yeah. [Not that he's too thrilled by it.]

Like hell. Having them find you cute because of the freckles and pouts is not knowing them better.

Yeaaaah? Anything good?

Wha-- they do not! I've met plenty of girls who think I'm hot, okay?

[He pauses for a minute.] At the time, it seemed to be.

[Rolls his eyes. Damn twenty year olds. Everyone's hot at that age.]

And after the fact what's wrong?

[...] After the shift, I decided I didn't like making out with my friends.

[Friends.]

[Thinks this over.]

Norma?

Ehh... why not? It's not like it has to change anything you don't want it to, eh. That's sort of the good thing about friends. They'll help you pull through anything, even crazy drunk nights of whatever.

Norma? I didn't kiss her. Shitty fruits made me thing I was in love with Miyabi and Princess Vivi.

[He sighs.] It was a fake relationship. It pissed me off.

[Ruffles.] The princess, huh?

Are you mad because it was fake or just...?

I'm mad that the Malnosso mess with us like this.

And I don't even know if I did something that'll make them uncomfortable later on.

You didn't. The Malnosso did. And I'm sure they'll understand.

Besides, you said it yourself, eh? Girls like you.

I hope.

Well, yeah. But they're my friends. I don't want them to like me as someone to date.

I'm sure they'll understand, eh? Don't get too worked up before the problem even starts.

Yeah, guess you're right... [He sighs, and then stays quiet for a while. He perks up, and then heads over to one of the cupboards.]

Oh yeah, I nearly forgot. A girl named Kairi made a bunch of cookies for Valentine's Day, and was giving them out. I got you some... ah! Here they are. [He pulls out a plastic bag of beautifully decorated cookies, and hands them to him.]

Age an experience and all that. [Distracted by cookies :3]

Oh score! [Nibbles on one cheerfully.] These don't have any weird effects, do they?

Suuuure it is.

[He grins at him.] I thought they were pretty damn good. And nothing even happened, so they're fine.

[Noms another one or two, sharing the rest with Ace.]

See? So some good came out of this week, eh?

[He chuckles a little, nodding.] Probably the only good part.

You got more action than I have my whole time here, that has to count for something. [Ruffles.]

Okay, fine. The cookies and kissing were the only good part. Some things though, I'd rather didn't happen.

Hm... all right, that's perfectly understandable, eh. [Ruffle ruffle ruffle.... messing up the hair now more than tousling.]

If you want to talk though, I'm always listening.

[He just gives him an annoyed look at the ruffles, and grumbles a bit. When he started about talking... his expression dimmed a little. Did he really want to bother bringing that up...?]

...mn. Thanks.

Seriously kiddo. If I can't kick whatever problem you're having in the face, I'll find a way to at least light up your darkness.

[Marco says this with sparkles. Because nothing makes cheesy as hell lines LESS retarded like sparkles.]

Thanks. [He gives him a half smile, but his gaze wanders.] But I'm almost worried that's what you'll do if I tell you.

Eh... why's that?

... well... [he sighs.] Someone made a post asking about Luffy, and if he was "suave" or something. I figured that since it was around Valentine's Day, he must've had something against Luffy because of girl, and I knew since he's my brother. So I tried to clear it up by saying he's not like that, and just trying to reassure him. But I kinda... I guess I called him out on liking someone, and that might've ticked him off. I should've just dropped it, but I didn't want him to get the wrong idea. And then he got snarky and... said... [He hesitated a minute. Now the words just hurt.] He said I was being pretty kind to a stranger who... might have a thing against his blood.

[Marco, if you run out that door, he is going to tackle you and tie you down to something. But right now, he just looks down.]
