11 - AU!Disc [Audio] In which pineapples are plentiful

Has anyone seen my Ace of Spades?

Linda apparently can't find it. She's good at finding other stuff though, but not Rika's crystals. Which is a shame, I was going to hang them up in the windows. Might liven up all the black. [In the background there's the sound of a woman tsking him and reminding him that he gets to decorate the office, not the apartment, so he should suck up and deal because black is the in-thing.]

Yeah, right, anyway. Got in touch with the Sandwich Factory --
[At this, the transmission is interrupted for a loud THWACK! as something loud was thrown and cracked near the communicator.] NOT YOU LINDA. GOD! PUT THE HEELS DOWN! You're worse than Pops' nurses!

[And a loud woman's voice.] WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?

[And anyone who knows Marco might recognized this silence as Marco's usual deadpan thinking up the right thing to say.] Love you baby? [WELL, apparently that worked because the woman devolves into a bunch of coos and purrs.] Right, I'm just going to take that heel now... before you break things. Haha. Wait. What is that on the plate?

Spam on toast with pineapple! It's your favorite!

That's inedible.

[And that would be the sound of Marco getting slapped and the voice wandering away yelling he can get his own damn food then.]

Right. Okay. Yeah. So uh. I guess anyone who finds this not an ordinary day and has lots of missing stuff, check in. Maybe we can find it together with a giant lost and found or something. Thanks.

okay
if youre sure

I am.

Just try not to get them mad for now, okay? Easier if we can take them by surprise.

i wwill try not to anger them
try anywways
ivve already kind of angered them

Then they can't be too bad. If this is them angry, I'm not so worried then.

Just give it your best, eh. I'll never ask for more than that.

im sure they could do far wworse if they really wwanted to

Let's not given them reason to then, eh?

ill try
but uh
they already suspect me

So you said.

I just don't want you getting hurt worse than a mere timeout.

...timeout?

it wwasnt such a mere thing marco
wwhere wwere from wwe dont just draww blood like that
less youre a rainboww drinker
but i honestly doubt thats howw rainboww drinkers drink blood

Humans draw blood to check for diseases. Fuck, how do I explain this?

I'm less worried because humans in my world believe fishman blood is tainted. It's actually the same, same goes for giants, but they don't allow transfusions, because they don't allow the blood to mix. Pops' nurses have to take my blood every so often because I regenerate so fast that it can be used to save my brothers. I don't think that is what these guys are doing, and I'm not going to leave you there to find out, but it sounds like they're just testing it, eh.

In my world only friends would draw blood -- or at least someone who wants to keep you safe. Marines and other pirates would just leave you to bleed out, not try to collect it.

wwhy wwould blood determine if you havve a disease
but i disgress

oh wwell its not like they could use my blood tainted or not
its oh i dont knoww
fuckin purple!? yeah trolls cant go around givvin out free blood because givvin purple blood to a yelloww blood wwould probably kill the yelloww blood
probably
i dont knoww wwe just let our people bleed out if they cant stop bleedin

but if wwe can survvivve havvin our arms blowwn off
or our legs chainsawwed off
then i guess wwe havve evvolvved enough to not evven need blood trasnfusions or wwhatevver

Because that's where diseases attack. Bacteria and viruses. Diseases are like an enemy so tiny and fierce that they're even harder to fight than a giant. Humans found ways of drawing blood to find those enemies.

Humans can survive loss of limbs too, eh. Hell, Shanks lost his arm and he's still a pirate emperor -- one of the four strongest people in the world.

For the amount of blood I've seen you lose frequently, I would say you can survive more blood loss than a human, but treating wounds is about saving as many people as possible. The less who die, the better, eh. To me, that's its own kind of evolution.

oh
i doubt trolls wwould evver devvelop technology for that
i mean wwe dont havve any adults on our planet and its kind of hard to trust kids to go around doctorin people
but it doesnt matter i suppose

wwhat ivve been through here is nothin
our crippled chum
wwe cut off his legs wwhile he wwas sleepin to givve him robotic ones so he could wwalk again
it wwas like a tsunami of browwn all ovver the gog damn floor
and he is alivve
i guess wwe could be pretty good doctors if wwe really wwanted to be

but im hopin ill get a scar like my ancestor one day
he had twwo scars across his face
thus the name orphaner dualscar

Yeah? Your old man?

Damn, seems like everyone cool in my world has a scar. Pops had one from Gol D. Rogers and tons of them all over his chest, Shanks is famous for the three over his eye from Teach, Ben's got an X, Garp has one near his eye, Silvers has one over his eye, Luffy's got one under his eye, and now even Ace has one... not in a good way, but still.

I should really complain seeing as what I get in exchange, but I am a little jealous, eh.

wwell its just a thought that hes my ancestor
see like
trolls
the symbols wwe wwear on our shirts
if someone shares a symbol it means you havve a lot in common

and it could mean that youre ancestors or descendants but
no one can say for sure
because as soon as you givve the queen your buckets
youre off to wwar nevver to return to the alternia again
and evven that aside
itd be hard to trace lineage because you wwould nevver knoww wwhich relationship you wwere conceivved from
kismesis or matesprit
so its better to not really try to trace that shit
its not impossible im just sayin its nearly impossible
cause your ancestor could havve died and stuff anywways so there wwould alwways be the uncertainty lingerin around

youll get a cool scar one day marco
maybe the stars are just wwaitin for you to out badass them all wwith a scar

Understood. In some ways, there's definitely something to be said for that. Humans place way too much emphasis on blood, eh. My Pops didn't spawn me, he's just my father. To me there's nothing higher of a compliment than being like him. One of the things he always said was that the sins of a father don't pass onto the son. If you can't trace lineage like that, then I guess it's no worry, eh. Whereas in my world, some humans thing they're gods thanks to their ancestors, and thus need to find someone to be their devil.

Thanks for the vote of confidence Eridan, but I hope I don't get one. For me to even be able to get a scar would mean I was no longer a phoenix, and that would be worse than anything other than losing my family.
Besides, I've got a badass tattoo. That works for me.
Good luck with your scars though, eh. Just make sure you get them in a great battle to tell about.

wwell if you really wwanted to get technical wwith troll population
wwere technically all really brothers and sisters
i mean its not like humans
wwe all come from one uhh
i guess you wwould say mother
wwe all come from the queen
she just collects genetic material and combines it all into a big slurry of genetic material before she lays the eggs
shes also the only adult on the planet but its not like she has time to raise all one million of us that hatch you knoww
cause if she had to take care of all a us shed vvery wwell kill fef herself

oh wwell youre still badass
i hope i get into some good battles for scars
i mean the stars havvent glubbed about anythin about my future
wwhich is kind of disheartenin but i guess its good too
means the vvoices of the dead or the vvast glub upon me
although fef and i did kind of accidentally initiate the vvast glub in the end killin wwhatevver left of our race wwas on the planet
glub

I sort of gathered that, actually.

Ha, thank you. And I'm sure you will.
How do you accidentally kill off most of a planet?

really
i wwonder if howw wwe feel towwards each other is the opposite of howw you feel towwards your brothers
or is that incorrect?

if fefs lusus raised its vvoice abovve a wwhisper
it wwould unleash the prophetic vvast glub
killin all low blooded land dwwellers
and then eventually the entire troll population except for fef and the empress
so wwe orphaned trolls to feed her lusus so it kept its vvoice beloww a wwhisper
its wwhere the phrase 'become gl bgolyb' bait comes from
basically the life of our species wwas in fefs hands and mine since wwe wwere moirails

but wwhen wwe started playin the game
somethin happened and gl bgolyb glubbed and killed sol

The opposite?
Sometimes I'm not sure. You say there's only pity and hate between trolls, and in that case, yeah. That's the opposite of how I feel for my brothers. I'm proud of them, and I love them. I respect them, even when they piss me off by being little idiots. They're my responsibility, but I cherish them. They give me reasons to live, reasons to try hard to be the best, reasons to fight, reasons to risk life and limb. Fighting to protect my family I'll never have regrets. It's not that I never fight with them, we just know that we'll get past it because we love each other.

... The circumstances surrounding Teach's betrayal notwithstanding. That one... is a lot more complex.

Oh right, you did mention a little about her lusus. So what was the game? Stop feeding it brothers?

thats exactly wwhat i mean by opposite
see wwere all actually related but
there isnt any relationships like that circulatin around
i guess wwere just bond to bein blood thirsty little brats

the game wwas
wwell to put it shortly
the game is a game wwhere the demise of your planet is inevvitable but
in playin it if you can finish the wwar and defeat the final boss to exile him
you wwin the game and get to create a neww planet in wwhich you can reside in as heroes
as gods
wwe created the humans wworld but somethin happened and ww wwere unable to inhabit our neww wworld to bring about the repopulation of our species
so noww not only do wwe have no home to go back to
wwevve been barred from the vvery wworld wwe created

We're pirates, we start out pretty blood-thirsty. Bonds like ours aren't forged overnight, but through flames and turmoil. It's us against the whole world. It's like your quadrants, a little. You don't just wake up one day and find all your quadrants filled, eh.

Ouch. Sounds like a pretty brutal game.

i wwish it wwas
wwould be makin all this a wwhole lot easier

not particularly i mean
it wwas goin be wworth it all in the end from the sounds of it
until the fuckin humans wwent and screwwed up things by makin their queen too strong wwell i guess noww it wwould be an agent of derse
since their owwn jack noir ovverthreww their kingdom
but wwhatevver
guess the troll kids wwill rot awway here instead

Easier, but not better.

No rotting away. Besides, they're trying to keep you healthy. For now.

perhaps but
no wwhere did anyone say matesprits and kismesis wwould be such forevver
maybe wwhen wwe go off to wwar they nevver sea each other
wwho knowws

i havvent had anythin to eat since i wwoke up
you call that healthy
