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.

[He laughs, just shaking his head.] Nope, just hair dye.

[Lkajdlaskjd /headbutts Ace again.]

I'm going to get you for this. I hope you realize: this means war.

[He just laughs and nudges his head. Yes. He is going to play the little brother card.]

Do your worst. [Yes, that is a challenge.]

You don't even know how bad my worst will be.

[He will fuck you up. Or at least your hat. Or at least pretend to.]

I don't see how you could do worse than the dresses. Unless you go for gay chicken horrible or something.

[Which he kinda doubts you'll do.

Hopefully, you won't. You won't, right? >>]

I'm too mad for gay chicken. That's how mad I am.

[Sulking.]

Is any of this ringing any bells for you? At all? How you're acting? How I acted after you got me in those dresses?

[Getting the picture, Marco?]

[Huffs and goes back to birdie mode.] Except I was already getting revenge in the first place. That should like mitigate some of it.

And what do you think I was doing with this?

[SERIOUSLY, MARCO.]

Upping the ante! [Headbutt.] But I'm onto you and upping it more!

[He's just being a big baby.]

[Okay, he can joke this along. He'll just play the little bro card again, and hope Marco will buy it. He nudges his head gently, and give shim a slightly depressed look. No, seriously, it looks really, really convincing.]

Hey... you're not going to do anything too terrible... are you?

[Giving you the saddest and most endearing look here.]

[Oh fuck you Ace. He knows it's not real. He knows it's not real. He's absolutely certain it's fakey fake like the idea of safety in the Grand Line.]

[That doesn't stop it from working though.]

No. It'll be fine. [Pats Ace's head with a red wing and gets blue sparkles on him in punishment.] We're still brothers, no matter what, eh?

[And now you get one of those adorable little brother smiles. The really, really happy kind.]

No matter what! [Inwardly he's screaming about the sparkles. But he hugs him anyway.] You're the best brother still.

[asdkljaslkdjaslkdj]

That won't make me not be mad.

[Yeah it will. He's already finding it difficult to stay mad. Just curls up in phoenix form to be Ace's pillow. Best brother. Ace called him the best. Fuck those other guys~ And okay red hair is still bad, but yaaay he's the best brother~! Kyaa!]

[... and back to the pout.] You're still mad at me...?

[Look at this face. You are breaking his heart, Marco. Dear god, why is Ace such a horrible person.]

[T_T N-n-noooo baby brother, don't be sad. Stop that. This is unfair. D:]

I'll get over it.

[V_V You suck Ace. Stop being sad.]

[And you get another hug and a grin. Goddamn, it should be illegal for him to act like this.]

Thanks, bro! [Don't forget, he said best bro.]

[Yes, it really should be illegal. Have some reluctant slightly tsundere snuggles right back.]

Best bro. [He will never forget Ace, never ever.]

[You better know he means it. He'll just snuggle right back because he can.]

Damn right you're the best. For a lot of reasons.

[oaskldjaklsjd Okay, anger ebbing away even more. Stupid cute brat with too much D luck for his own good. ONE good thing Marco will say for being red is that if he blushes a little, Ace can't tell.]

Yeah yeah, I'll believe it more when you're not trying to butter me up.

[But his tail swishing back and forth way too happily is giving him away.]

[When he sees that tail swishing, he knows he's got him. Well, if he's happy now, might as well speak the truth.]

I kinda stopped after a bit. Half of it was buttering you up, but... most of it was sincere.

[Snuggles tight.] Like you really are the best brother I've ever had.

[Gah. Gah forever. More phoenix snuggles for Ace, though Marco's pretty quiet.]

Luffy got further saving you than I did though. [Marco couldn't even get past Garp. And valued Ace's freedom over his life. And sometimes even Marco's pretty sure that's a bit fucked up.] And Sabo was there first.

[Blah... but he wants to be the best. And how.]

[He nudges Marco's head with his own, keeping it against his.] So? You all fought for me. You guys lied to the world for me. And you guys Luffy out of there.

Sabo... [He shares a dream with Sabo. He was the one he grew up with for a good chunk of his life. He helped shape him in a lot of ways.

But Marco did, too.] It's not about who was there first. It's about who does what with the time they have. Sabo's done a lot for me. He really, really has. But I can say the same about every single one of my brothers, Marco. You've all been there for me when I needed you guys. But you... you've been with me even when I didn't need anything. You were just there because you knew I wanted you to be, even if I didn't need a damn thing. You've helped me a lot more than you can imagine.

[Okay. He can't stay mad in the face of all that. Stupid adorable kid brother.]

Yeah.... well... okay. [SNUGGLES!] You've always got us. Forever and ever. I promise, eh. Of course now you know I'll be even harder to get rid of.

[Crisis averted. Victory for the little brother. Muahahaha. But anyway, yes, he snuggles back, grinning like an idiot.]

I'm glad. Because after that month you were gone, I never wanted you to leave again. [... did he just say that out loud?]
