AAAAACCCEEEE!!!!!

[Hark! It's the roar of an angry phoenix in pirate form.]

MY SHAMPOO?! ARE YOU SERIOUS?! Oh god it's even in my feathers! MY FEATHERS ACE!!! AHHH WHY'D YOU HAVE TO PICK RED?! Even raven black would have been better! I look like I hero-worship Shanks now! I swear when I find you Ace!

[For anyone getting a good look in the journal, Marco's hair has been badly dyed red, oh yeah and he looks every bit as ticked off as he sounds. Later on however, he'll be sporting a fedora to cover up that Akagami-wannabe look, and looking for hair dye remover. Or bleach. Or as a last resort, black hair dye. Anything's better than red with him. He will also be putting up posters: "Ever want to be a pirate? Join the Whitebeards! Limited time offer" though more on that later. And even more than that, a certain usually very blue bird will have a slightly red and purple tinge to his feathers for a little while. So not pleased. Still, he'll be around to help out any New Feathers or someone needing directions to town. And if anything, he arguably looks more like a traditional phoenix. Not that he wants that.]

[Later on that night when he stops trying to beat Ace to a pulp there will be a second very short post.]

Does anyone have hair dye remover, bleach, or something in black? I couldn't find any in the shop. Thanks, eh.

[BEING SICK WON'T SAVE YOU. It's about another half an hour before Marco can find a hat, but then he's heading up there to get a good jump for flying. Seeing Ace will just induce a massive tackle.]

[action] at first, I pitied Ace. now, I just want his ass kicked.

[hiken_ace]

[DOESN'T IT AT LEAST HELP oh shit he's been tackled. Give him a minute, he just has to cough up a lung.

Okay, he's kinda good now.] Hi, Shanks. When did you get back?

[action] /obliges?!

[fierybluebird]

[Turns into a phoenix; a noticeably redder and purple phoenix, and pecks the hell out Ace with his beak. DIE.]

[action] yes good

[hiken_ace]

[... oh my god, he's red and purple as a phoenix. Sorry, bro, Ace is going to laugh even more now.]

Oh god... OI! [He'll just clamp a hand over your beak now.] You still look hilarious.

[action] yes good

[fierybluebird]

[Squawking like crazy and flapping his wings. RAAAAGE.]

[action]

[hiken_ace]

[He'll keep his hand over your beak for the time being.]

I'll let go of your beak if you promise not to beat me.

[action]

[fierybluebird]

[Shakes his head no. No dice. If he he really wants, he'll switch back to human. Try holding his beak then.]

[action]

[hiken_ace]

[Nope, still holding your beak.] Okay, then promise you won't kill me? Or at least beat me unconscious.

[action]

[fierybluebird]

[Nods grumpily and waits for Ace to let go.]

[action]

[hiken_ace]

Good. [Letting go of your beak... AND RUNNING.]

[action]

[fierybluebird]

[FLIES AFTER HIM to tackle!]

GET BACK HERE ACE! You're in so much trouble!

[action]

[hiken_ace]

[You're lucky he's sick. Otherwise you wouldn't have been able to get him.]

Hey! You didn't see me trying to beat you to a pulp after you put me in dressed! Maid and nurse dresses!!!

[action]

[fierybluebird]

You willing dressed up as them! You don't see me dressing up as Shanks even when drunk do you?!

[action]

[hiken_ace]

Willingly!?!? [Fuck you, that gets you a punch.] You got me WASTED before we did that! I was so drunk I didn't know what the hell was going on!

[action]

[fierybluebird]

Che.... [Headbutts.] There's nothing wrong with dresses and it's not like you're still stuck in them!

[action]

[hiken_ace]

[Okay, now he'll flip you over.] I. Don't. Like them. And you went and showed the entire fucking village! And don't even make me bring up the girlfriend part.

[... he may be holding a grudge about this.]

[action]

[fierybluebird]

[Irritated swan growl, but he stops fighting back.]

And I like Shanks?! And you showed everyone the flowers!

[action]

[hiken_ace]

Hey, I didn't show everyone this! You did! And the flowers were cute!

[action]

[fierybluebird]

I don't want to be cute! How am I supposed to protect you guys if people don't even take me seriously! It's not like I've got my reputation here!

[action]

[hiken_ace]

[... okay fine, he'll get off of you.]

There hasn't really been much need to protect us lately, Marco!

[action]

[fierybluebird]

There still could be! And even if there isn't, it's embarrassing. [Hides under a wing.]

[action]

[hiken_ace]

[He'll just flick your beak.] How the hell do you think I felt when you put me in those shitty dresses?

[action]

[fierybluebird]

You mean afterwards?

[action]

[hiken_ace]

Yeah.

[action]

[fierybluebird]

[Headbutts and switches back to phoenix, just leaving his head there against Ace.]

I look like a murdered pineapple....
