fierybluebird: (Stefan the big white mustache dog)

Action / Voice

[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.

Which is still pretty unimpressive for a pineapple.

Don't ask me, I've no interest in tasting you. Ask Robin, maybe she'll be up for a pineapple salad.

Then why hasn't she cut you in slices yet?

[It would be better if Ikki got half of them. Probably.]

Oh? So she did? And what's the reason why she doesn't do it all the time to save the village from dealing with you? Didn't she like it?

[He's not being serious, of course. He would be upset if he couldn't see Marco, but he will die before admitting so.]

So you say. Maybe you just convinced her to do another countdown until she cut you into slices.

[He shifts and crouches a little unconsciously. No, he's not getting sleepy up here on his brother's shoulder, shut up.]

Why am I not surprised to hear you say that.

[He shakes his head trying to avoid the headpats for a moment before he gives up.]
uccellodifuoco: Can't take this anymore." This heart breaks (003 - I feel like "Fuck man)

[He hates you, brother.]

I don't think she liked it when you carved a new tattoo on your skin with a knife.

[Guess who missed the point completely.]

[That's actually good enough for Ikki to get it. Or rather, get that there's something to it, have a phoenix giving you a weird "what are you talking about" look.]

Did the Malnosso get her too and divide her into three?

[He isn't sure he wants to catch Marco's drift. The bird narrows his eyes as he glares at Marco.]

The... Bedroom?

[His voice sounds as if Marco is about to step on a land mine.]

[He doesn't fight the head rub but he doesn't look soothed at all.]

What were you saying about the bedroom?

[He tries to keep his tone calm, really. Maybe it's not what he thinks. It can't be what he thinks. Marco isn't like that, he wouldn't do that, he always makes clear that he loves Robin. So probably he's just being paranoid. He can't keep the poison out of that last word, though.]

[Marco uses reassurance and humor. It's totally ineffective.]

And for what exactly do you want those "wild uses"?

[Still on that landmine field, Marco. But no. No. No. No. No. It's impossible, Marco isn't like that. He isn't.]

You always say that you love her.

[Is that a reminder to Marco or to himself?]

[Ikki is honestly not aware of himself for a moment. The moment that word comes out everything else Marco says and does is completely ignored as the phoenix bird stills, tense as if he was a stuffed animal or something. He snaps out of it at the last part, when Marco reaffirms his love for Robin, and just as Marco expected there are talons scratching him as Ikki fights to get away from the other's hold.

The bird screeches and fights until he's able to fly away and land on a branch, high above the other. Away from Marco, and it's probably a good thing that he's currently a bird as his form tones down the expression of complete disappointment, anger and pain he has when he looks at the other.]


You love her? Don't make me laugh... Then why do you want to do that to her? Why do you want to... Have sex with her?!

[The level of anger, hate and poison on Ikki's voice right one is one that hasn't been heard in Luceti for a long while. As if he had calmed down, as if he had healed, but he didn't, it was all just buried deep within. Marco would be able to recognize it, it's the same tone Ikki used to talk about Mitsumasa Kido.]
