[Even though Marco's showy, he's normally a bit more careful about avoiding displaying the blue flames. Still, there's a quick glimpse of him playing with them on his arm, clearly relieved to have his chip out, before noticing the camera is on and they go instantly out like a light.]

Hey Straw-Hat, how would you like to go flying? [There's a sneaky grin on his face, but he doesn't seem to mean throwing Luffy off a building at least.]

For everyone else out there, are there any flying monsters in this place? That or a dome cap people should beware of? If anyone knows, it'd be appreciated.

And Freckles, no worries, I'll bring your brother back in one piece, though probably not with One Piece. [Har. Har.]

[There's a bit of frantic wiggling, and then--ohp... he fell...

Also he is screaming.]

[fierybluebird]

[OH SHIT! And that would be Marco diving as fast as he can after him to at least try to catch him in talons.]

[ihasastrawhat.livejournal.com]

[And he attempts to gomu-gomu his way back but--orite, he's still chipped!--so there's just more falling until he hits the lake's surface.]

[fierybluebird]

[And Marco in his "MUST NOT LOSE BROTHER" and "Protect Forever!" dives in after, like the bird-brain he is.]

[Maaiiii heeerooo...

...except wait you can't swim either...]

[fierybluebird]

[They're totally going to drown and be cold little ice blocks.]

[kitchen-smoke.livejournal.com]

[A black figure dives into the water and swims hastily after them. He grabs both of them by the arms and starts to slowly make his way back to the surface. Seriously. You guys are heavy.]

[fierybluebird]

[He'd try to work out more, but that would probably make him more muscular and heavy.]

[Gurgle bubble.]

Thatch??

[ihasastrawhat.livejournal.com]

[Just lots of gurgling on Luffy's end. Drowning's so tiring.]

[kitchen-smoke.livejournal.com]

[He turns his head to Marco]

...Not quite.

[Now he's gonna go over and give CPR to Luffy. Ew. Wish Chopper was still here...]

[fierybluebird]

[Rolls over and coughs up some swallowed water, at least he got less in him than Luffy, but oxygen is extra important for birds. And then slowly it's getting back to his brain.]

OH SHIT STRAW-HAT! [Panicking out and looking around to make sure they're not still drowning.]

[ihasastrawhat.livejournal.com]

[Few good thumps on the chest later and Luffy's springing back up and coughing up all that water he stupidly inhaled. He looks around.]

Eck--Sanji! [Huff huff.] D-did... didja get Marco too?

[kitchen-smoke.livejournal.com]

[Sanji is a little more concerned with his pocket. You made him get his cigarettes wet. Perfect.]

[fierybluebird]

Right here Luffy. [Coughs.] Thanks cook. [Runs a hand through wet pineapple hair, bouncing back up.] Ace... is going to kill me.

[ihasastrawhat.livejournal.com]

[Luffy just grins at Marco. They'll dry off, Sanji.] Okay, good. It was r-really windy up there! A-almost lost my hat!

[kitchen-smoke.livejournal.com]

[Sanji just huffs and opens the pack to lay them out in the sun to dry.]

What were you two thinking flying over water like that?

[fierybluebird]

Testing the winds. [Apologetically mumbles. He's not used to getting lectured by anyone.] Sorry you both.

[ihasastrawhat.livejournal.com]

Naaaa... Sorry, Sanji. [Even though he's half smiling again. It was fun. But now he's kind of cold.]

[kitchen-smoke.livejournal.com]

[Sanji just pats his captain on the shoulder.]

Marco, he's shivering. Any way you can warm him up?

[fierybluebird]

[Grunts and kind of shares a grin with Luffy, it was fun. Then switches into a fiery blue phoenix, shaking off the water and puffing up like a giant fluffy bird, even while snuggling around him with giant wings.]

Tweet? [Headtilts as if to say, "Is this good?"]

[ihasastrawhat.livejournal.com]

[Luffy's about to say he's okay but soon catches Marco turning back into his bird form, and he just grins and laughs again. Marco is the coolest Phoenix in Discedo.]

Marco's awesome!

[fierybluebird]

[Only because he's only one. Kind of like Tigger's song.]

Kree! [Aw. If he could blush as a phoenix, he would be slightly. Still that'll get Luffy a small nuzzle from the ridiculously long swan-neck.]

[ihasastrawhat.livejournal.com]

[Luffy just grins and pats Marco's head with one hand, his other stretching for the cook.]

Sanji, come here! He's really warm!
