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.]

The village. Maybe the restaurant. Can you recognize your surroundings?

There's a fountain. It's very wet.

I don't recognize this island though, eh.

You're in the center of the plaza... It's a new territory. Hold on. I'll be with you in a moment.

[She doesn't remove her fingers off the journal, but after a while, a woman probably not as tall as Whitebeard, but still sizable, comes forward to find Marco... or at least, his current form.]

A new territory... How new? Is the World Government here?

[Oh gosh Daisy, no. She's not nearly as tall as Whitebeard. She's about what? 8 foot something? Marco's brothers almost all surpass that. Luckily even as a child, he's used to Jozu so her height doesn't make him even think twice. And Whitebeard is tall enough to make Harry Potter giants seem small in comparison. Don't even get Marco started on "Little" Oars Jr.]

Hello, yoi.

No government.

[It's all she replies before looking for Marco -- what he may be right now.

... It's a young one.]

... Hello.

[And unsurprised by her height. She kneels.]

[Beams at her and offers a handshake.]

I'm Marco, yoi.

Is this place like Wano Island, then? No world government and all closed off?

... Something like it.

[She takes it, smiling to him. However, for now, she'd have to hide her military origins. It seems only after a while did the pirates and Keimi accept any sort of people from any world's armed forces.]

We do what we can to help eachother in spite of our differences. We have plenty of food, for instance.

[Actually, young Marco has less fear/hatred of marines than older Marco, just people in general and he's clearly been trying to get over that thanks to his Pops and brothers.]

That's good, yoi! It must be easier here with all the land, not like Foodvalten.

What else does everyone help out on?

Adaptation, training, caretaking, medicine... We get a lot of variety, and a lot of help.

[She does not know of "Foodvalten"... but she is familiar with campaigns with very few resources.]

I think one of them should be familiar to you.

[Fortunately for Marco right now, a lot of people.]

Eh, really? Which one's familiar?

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

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?

I don't think she is. [She is not a gigantic mermaid, for one.] She's one of his citizens, but... I think you'd still like her.

I'm sure I will, yoi! Everyone here is really neat!
