[A: Action has a ridiculously cheerful Marco wandering Luceti, actually walking, not flying. This is because he's walking his Pops' dog. A big white dog with a mustache on its face. The same crescent moon mustache that can be seen on Marco's tattoo. Well they say pets take after their owners...]

[Though I'm pretty sure that's not how it's meant.]


Fetch, Stefan!

[The dog barks and goes bounding after the white frisbee, only to stop as it hits the ground. What you expected him to catch it? Or actually fetch it? No. He gives Marco a quizzical stare instead, like what the hell is he supposed to do with it? Marco deadpans him right back.]

What, you were expecting this? [He holds up a white boomerang instead. And Stefan barks. With a small sigh Marco tosses it, fetches the fallen frisbee himself, and the dog goes racing after the boomerang. Including when it comes back to Marco, who just holds up a hand and catches it.] I don't know if you're just that lazy or he gave you bad habits, eh? [But Marco gives the dog a treat and an affectionate face rub anyway. Seems his Pops wasn't the only one giving him bad habits. In any case, feel free to spot him anywhere outside and stop and say hello or join him, both Marco and Stefan are quite friendly.]

[B. Voice: After fetching food for dinner (fish and mostly vegetarian things, sorry Robin, he's been cooking with Leanne in mind) and stopping to actually return books to the library instead of just stealing them indefinitely like the pirate he is, Marco lazily grabs a spot in the garden near the Straw Hat house.]


Hello Luceti.

I'm Captain Marco, of the Whitebeards, though there's really only me left of us here. I suppose that goes for a lot of the pirates left here, eh? In any case, if you're a lost new feather, give me a call, and I can come flying out there. And for everyone, I pose to you a question.

All worlds seem to have their own ways of preserving history, and some of burying it. In my own world, I think we go for the latter more often than not. Perhaps ironically, one of the strangest things about being a pirate is that we also uncover and preserve a lot of history. Accidentally, or because of treasure and legends. What one pirate might find to be treasure, the rest of the world might see as useless junk. My father was big on preserving history through stories. When you pass on legends, you keep them real in a way nothing solid can. So my question quite simply, is what do you or your worlds do to preserve history and stories? And what do you do if it's destroyed, eh?

Thanks.

[Well, Saori's out for a walk with Keiko, and she's practically dancing as she moves. Yuuna's been in Luceti for four whole days and it's incredibly difficult for the suddenly clingy goddess to pry herself free to do much of anything else. But shiba-pug needs a walk, and Saori really does too, just to get out to think and enjoy the weather so...out she goes.

And nearly walks smack dab into Marco. And just bursts out laughing]


Oh! Marco! You're back!

[Suspicious.

Barnaby has seen and heard enough audio and video recordings of himself to know his own voice, and the sound of it coming out of the journal in an entirely different capacity disturbed him greatly. This Captain Marco...

...]


Captain Marco. I have a question for you as well.

[His tone was deceptively even, a thin veneer laid upon refined steel.]

Who are you really?
windandrain: (Yaaaaay!)

So many things, since last time I saw you!

Two bad things, and one really good. [She squeaks, totally giddy with excitement.]

I left Clint. Like we talked about. And...I stopped talking to Adele, because she refused to talk to me for four months.

But...[She hops up once.]

This cycle? Yuuna appeared in my bed! And it's really her, not a dream. I thought it might be but no...she's really here...really really!

[Words just kind of tumble out...]

[Bunny's first impulse had been Cyclone Origami, but he knew for a fact that Origami-senpai was not in town. The next impulse was that this was another uncertainty, a problem within his mind that he hadn't noticed before. Was he so far gone that he was hallucinating?

No. He needed to focus. The wings and the fire from a few weeks back-- the fire that he was grudgingly starting to regain control of-- were quite real.

This, too, was a problem that he could manage.

Like his vocal mirror, he wouldn't give in.]


I'm certain you already know. That's quite the talent you have, 'Captain'...what was it again?

Well...things worked out with Clint and we're still good friends, but fuck Adele, she doesn't deserve my company anyway. Ungrateful wretch.

[She gulps in air, hugs Marco all of a sudden and continues. Excited doesn't even begin to describe it. She's finally not alone. She doesn't need other people to help her get by, she has the person she counts on more than anything.]

I don't know how, or why, but...there she was. Just sleeping, right there, like at home. I don't really care who brought her here, if its the world or the Malnosso or whatever. I just...Earth and Stars, I get to have my partner back. I feel whole...and loved and...like I'm falling in love all over again.

'Chameleone?' That's a new one. [Sarcasm: On. His words were biting, and his tone bordered on flippancy.]

Very well then, 'Marco.' I don't care to join you in any games today...wouldn't you say that they're tiring after everything? It's been rough all around, not just for you.

[Who can say what the world and the spirits want or choose. Generally, it seems misery over joy, though. But today? Well, it's just a good day.

And Saori herself can almost float away. Keiko's leash is the only think keeping her from doing so.]


Well...we...spent the last few days catching up. [Among other things] She's been here for four days. And it's just good, having her here. Even if I am worried about her, there's no point in dwelling on that. What comes will come and we'll face it together.

As for plans? What plans would we have? This is Luceti. I plan to just enjoy every minute I can with her, for certain. You'll have to come meet her, soon! She'll like you...and she'll adore Stefan. And...well...Earth and Stars, I don't even know if I should say this...but I sort of want to ask her to marry me. Or...something like that.

[She looks a little abashed, like she didn't mean to say it buuuuut she's so happy...]

[Barnaby narrowed his eyes at the book, briefly wondering why the sarcasm was less sharp. Perhaps there was a rational explanation to all of this besides his lingering paranoia about Maverick's influence.

That didn't mean he was going to show his hand.]


Would you tell a stranger the story of your life?

I'm still fairly new to this town, and the rules around here are more complicated than they look.

Why don't you tell me?
windandrain: (Derpy Smile)

[personal profile] windandrain 2013-07-15 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe soon. It's...still a little new and I want to give her time to settle.

[And she nods gratefully.] I would like that. I really would. I don't know a priest here, so a ships captain would be ideal.

And I decided to let her rest and have some free time? I've been away a year, but she's coming from home, and she was asleep in my arms when she left. So I thought she'd want some time to herself. And Keiko needed a walk.

[Woof!]

.... My clan, we were big on preserving history. We do it by songs and pass the songs from one generation to another....

Perhaps later on I can sing for you and my lady Robin some of our history and legends?

Let Stefan be the...?

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying, 'Captain.'
