fierybluebird | [Action / Accidental Video] In which baby phoenixes flail a lot

[Early Monday morning Marco is finally returned from his kidnapping. A lot tinier.]

[He wakes up by kicking his book open and there's a teeny tiny baby bluebird phoenix cocking an eye at the pages. Hello Luceti. Finally he decides it's just a blank journal so he hops back and goes to take in his surroundings, and checks the area around the fountain very carefully. Wet. Do not want. Well, he's bored now. Time to fly home.]

[That would work a lot better without this creepy added weight. What the hell! NO! HE CAN'T FLY?! So after several jumps, the hand-sized phoenix jumps about and tries to get air. Which much to his dismay, does nothing. With the added new weight of the fake Luceti wings, he can't fly! Eventually he just gives up and starts flailing.]

Pops! Pops! Pops! [There are a few more baby birdie chirps of this.] Uwah brothers! ANYONE! Where are you guys?!

[Walks around and looks distraught.] I must'a hurt my wings. But that makes no sense... because I'm a phoenix. [Sits back down and sulks for now. Oh, look a stranger! He starts to rush to hide behind the fountain, but well, he's not getting anywhere on his own... so he'll have to try something!]

Excuse me! Have you seen anyone really really tall around? Wait. No. What island is this? I don't remember docking? AH! Have you see Edward Newgate; my Pops around? It's really important, yoi! [At which point... he remembers he's a bird. And realizes nothing he said probably came out in human (it all did because lulz Luceti) so just have a deapan baby birdie stare.]

AYE! They're potatoes all cooked up in super hot oil! They're nice and salty and really good!

[In which Marco exposes he might be a little more seagull than phoenix as he claims. j/k of course]

Eh, really? Which one's familiar?

[Puzzled look. He either might genuinely not know which she means, or he's just playing along.]

[GIANT EYES.]

REALLY?! Even Papa doesn't eat that much!

Ah... is he really a good captain though? [If he's eating all your food, he means, because gosh. How extreme.]

Aye, they're in the way too! It's very frustrating, yoi.

[Small uncertain pause, but Ace has Pops' tattoo, so he's a brother, so he should just trust his brothers like he told Ace to. ALL RIGHT YOSH! He spreads his arms and instantly switches into wings. And then into a phoenix and back to hybrid.] But how could you help?

[Sanji pauses in the middle of scooping up a spoonful of pasta, amused despite himself. Isn't that the million dollar question?]

Heh, he's an idiot, but I wouldn't follow anyone else.

Hee~!

[Happy and swishes his tail. Yeah, don't mind the random hybrid phoenix in the middle of eating. Oops]

Good, yoi. I wouldn't follow anyone but Pops either. What kind of adventures have you had? Have you seen mermaids yet?

My, they sound delicious! I wonder how you make them.

[Hahaha, oh man, it's true.]

Um... I don't know actually! Maybe you can ask a cook!

[Gah, and now Sanji nearly chokes on his pasta. It's for a good cause, though. How else is he supposed to spew forth adoration and glee?]

Yeeeeeeeees~!! We've seen mermaids~! The most exotic, gorgeous creatures in the entire sea~!

[Sabo simply nods in return to Ace's looks and turns to Marco with a smile. Trying to help brothers is what he does best.]

Well, you see, I'm friends with this wind spirit guy called Kipinn. And those friends with him get to borrow his abilities sometimes. That means... [He holds out a palm and there's a sudden puff of wind on Marco's face.] I can control wind to some extent.

And some birds can glide and soar along a breeze, right? It's not the flying you're used to, but it might be close enough. We can try it out, if you want!

[Ace just quietly munches on his food, listening to Sabo and watching him explain all this to Marco. He's calmed down a lot, but it's better to just stay quiet for a while now.]

Ehhh? A wind spirit? But wouldn't it blow me off course? Would it be warm enough? [Also have a few more questions about winds and currents and flying and how that would work.]

Uwah! REALLY? That's very impressive, yoi!

Papa's really good friends with a big merman, but he's really hairy! Not that pretty.

[:| Well.... King Neptune is on the hairy side... yes.]

That's a good idea! Then I can ask for the recipe and make you some.

I'm not sure if you may know them... [Daisy remembers the brief time she was a little girl in this place. Her memories regressed as well.] Keimi, Luffy... One of them's a mermaid. Another's a friendly pirate.

[A very, very odd one.]

So I know TWO mermaids?! Is she related to Neptune too?

Eh?? You'd really do that for me?

That's because he was a merman. Of course he won't be as pretty as a maiden of the sea!

Oh, yes, of course! I'd be happy to make it for you.

Are they really that different?

Thank you very much, yoi! I'll try to make you something too!

[Oh silly child. You will understand when you're older]

Different as night and shitty day.

Wow.

So Princess Shirahoshi is only like her Mom?

[Go on Sanji. He dares you to explain her size then.]

[Gdit that is not exactly what he meant.]

Well, I never met the queen... but I'm sure Shirahoshi-chan got all her best features from her!

[Solemn nod.] I think I know what you mean, yoi.

[Okay he's just guessing. But it's an educated guess.]
