[Marco's voice starts off cheerfully enough.]

Hey everyone, I think I found the place where the cave-in for the train-thing is. The currents here are pretty weird so if we can get ... some ... strong swimmers then...

[He starts trailing off, obviously seeing something.] Pops...? [His voice is quiet, barely audible. It's not possible, he knows it's not, he watched the man die. So it's just like Luffy's food and an illusion. Has to be. But then it gets stronger.] POPS!! [He starts running, sandals hitting the wood of the deck.] Pops... [This time he just sounds anguished. And then suddenly there's a splash. Uh where did Marco go?]

Oi oi... Ace isn't that bad. And it wasn't like I tried to drown.

But thanks for getting me out Lightning. You ever need a favor, you know who to call, eh?

Hwah--! Now I want to!

Very well, but do refrain from getting all huffy about it.

[She tilts her head to the side.] Now, you explained about different worlds, but are you speaking of Hell?

[Shrugs.]

Some people die in their worlds, but live on here. These corpses... [Jerks his head.] It can't be real. Even the dead when brought her come back to life. No one stays dead long. Or they get sent home. [His eyes narrow.] But back home, isn't something everyone can have. Killing them here won't return them to that.

[Hops off the railing.] And it doesn't matter your reasons, if you try try to kill my family or anyone under my sphere of protection, I'll torture you until you can't take anymore.

You'll have to accidentally give it your best.

[ This way it will be ~~tasteful~~ artful! And possibly even have a good storyline. Of some kind. ]

Besides, someone has to say it.

That will not be hard. As a true Japanese man, I am always doing my best. [THIS SOMEHOW MAKES SENSE IN HIS MIND]

[Excellent. Marco will be an avid collector.]

If you want it supported anyway. If you didn't like it, I'd stop.

Well...

I'd pull back anyway.

I knew I could on you. [Serious and deadpan, but still sticking out his tongue and lightly mocking him.]

...Is Marco teasing me? [He's only just picking up on this]

Am I ever not? [Still deadpan.]

I am hoping there are times when not. [But he'll give him a kiss on the cheek.]

I think you can tell the difference. [Shivers and leans against him.]

[He actually slides his arm around Marco's so he can slip into holding his hand, and leans in a little more, as well. Silent, but... Of course he can tell.]

No, it is not, aru.

I do not know if anyone has told you yet, Marco, but when I disappeared for a week from Fortuna, I went back home for thirty years. Even though that is a short period of time for us Nations, so many things happened.

Hah, I was not expecting another cruel stunt so soon after my return, aru. Then again, at least we do not have any fakes to worry about this time.

[Holds his hand happily.]

Hey Bushido?

Hm?

Love you. [Kisses him.]

[oh.....gldfkgjdfkgjkdsfg]

[Blush desu after that kiss]

...

Ah... l-love you too. [one day he'll do it without stutters. one day.]

He tried to set me on fire. Can't blame a troll for dislikin him.

[He nods, taking off his scarf and wringing it out of water finally.] Noww, about your earlier statement needin strong swwimmers.

Oh. You're seeing them too.

O-of course...! Ah, as long as Marco-san will be, as well.
