Hey, couldn't get to the comm right away, probably out kicking things. Since that doesn't last long, leave me a message and I'll get back to you as fast as I can, eh?

[Written]
Have a haiku.

There was a bluebird
Who was too busy for you
Leave me a message

June 15th

[hiken_ace]

Oh yeah? What kinda plan? [He's silent for a moment.] Yeah... I'd like to show them that.

June 15th

[fierybluebird]

Oh, just a little game between crews.

[Ruffles Ace's hair.] Don't worry kid, you're already mostly there.

June 15th

[hiken_ace]

A game? [He grins again.] Oi, what's that "mostly"?

June 15th

[fierybluebird]

Davy Back. [Holds a finger over his lips.] But don't tell the others yet. Not even Luffy, if just because I want to surprise him. [For fun, since he thinks Luffy will enjoy it more if it's a surprise.]

[And there's a laugh.] Okay okay, all there, but make sure you show it. [More affection spread all over Ace.]

June 15th

[hiken_ace]

[His eyes goes wide, but in an excited sense.]

Really? Sounds like fun! As long as we don't play for keeps.

[Smother all you want. He just hugs and snuggles back because this is easily one of the best days ever.] You say that like I haven't been.

June 15th

[fierybluebird]

It'd pretty hard to do that in this place anyway. [And Marco's not about to gamble Ace away. He's his Ace trump card after all.]

[And daw Ace... forever cute. Marco gives a small laugh, shakes his head, and snuggles his brother even more.]

Maybe some days. [Clearly teasing though.]

June 15th

[hiken_ace]

Yeah, I guess so, huh? Maybe just make it for like a week or something.

[Yes, snuggles are a good thing. And he doesn't even care if this is gay or he's losing manliness. Because he has his tattoo, his brothers, and life is just good.]

Ooooi, only some? Fine, then, I'll show it now. [He grins up at him.] I've never been this happy before in my life, and you've helped so much with it.

June 15th

[fierybluebird]

Aye, a week sounds good to me.

[Laughs and messes Ace's hair up even more.] Seriously? I'm glad. [And just for that, Marco switches his tail out and swishes it back and forth, a clear sign he's just as happy as Ace.]

June 15th

[hiken_ace]

Heheh, this ought to be good.

Yeah, seriously. [He laughs along with Marco, especially when his tail shows up.] And back to the turkey.

June 15th

[fierybluebird]

Definitely. We have to make sure pirate versus ninja dodgeball is included though. To prove we can totally beat them.

[Huff.] Oi oi. Turkeys wish their tails were as great as mine.

June 15th

[hiken_ace]

Oh come on, like there's any doubt we can.

[He laughs again.] Yep, no bird can compete with your tail.

June 15th

[fierybluebird]

You know that, I know that, I'm sure even they know it, but they pretend not to, so we have to prove it.

Damn straight. [Sways his tail about happily. If that was meant to be mocking, it seems lost on Marco.]

June 15th

[hiken_ace]

Haaaah. Maybe we can get them to join us.

[Well, it was a little of both. He leans against Marco's back.] Hey, can we go flying?

June 15th

[fierybluebird]

Maybe.

[HUG.] Always. Got a place in mind, or do you want to get out? [Gestures a thumb to the door.]

June 15th

[hiken_ace]

[He gives a firm nod.] The ocean.

June 15th

[fierybluebird]

You got it.

And you can tell me more stories about your crazy fucked up childhood.

June 15th

[hiken_ace]

Hahahaha! Depends on what you wanna hear. [He gets up and heads for the door.]

June 15th

[fierybluebird]

Anything you feel like sharing, I'm being generous. [Leads the way out and up to the rooftop.]

June 15th

[hiken_ace]

Mn... did I ever tell you about Makino and Dadan? [Follows!]

June 15th

[fierybluebird]

Mm-hm. A bit. Makino taught you manners, Dadan had you doing hunting. [Switches into phoenix and crouches down so Ace can climb on.]

June 15th

[hiken_ace]

Yeah. They were both like moms to me. A more crazy sense in Dadan's case, though.

[And he climbs on.] Makino would take us shopping for clothes, come and hang out with us, all that stuff. Dadan... gave us a place to call home. Even if it was ideal, it was nice having people to come home to. People to nag at you for taking forever to get dinner, coming home after getting into a lot of trouble... they were both great.

June 15th

[fierybluebird]

Doesn't sound like such a bad childhood after all then, eh? [Spreads his wings and gets a good short running start before taking off, it's a lot easier in summer now that it's warming up to that. With all the hot air rising, the currents make it a lot easier to pick up.]

June 15th

[hiken_ace]

And then that shitty Gramps would come and beat us up everyday. [Yup, not horrible at all. He holds onto Marco as he takes off, exhilarated by the sudden wind.]

June 15th

[fierybluebird]

I take it back. [Shivers despite the heat. Garp. No one should have to deal with that crazy bastard. Except other marines, because fuck them, that's why.]

June 15th

[hiken_ace]

Yeah, I thought so. [He grins despite the memories.] But I had Sabo and Luffy. We had some good times. Like when Luffy got swallowed by that alligator. Or... when we almost killed him. Fuck, we were kinda horrible to him at first.
