[concasse]

Who: Sanji, Nami, Zoro, and probably the rest of the SH crew at some point.
What: Mallynaps Suck
When: February 2nd, probably some time in the evening.
Where: The foot of the mountains. House 6 later.
Summary: Nami and Sanji are kinda chibified. And stranded in the mountains. Luckily, a certain swordsman with a wonderful sense of direction is there to take them home. >_>
Rating: PG-13 if you include Sanji's mouth. He started early.

But we are! We're dead and we went to hell and we're going to freeze to death on this mountain!

[SOB. Also what is logic.]

[lil_eggplant]

No! I can't die yet! [With the bursting energy only a stubborn child can exert, Sanji grits his teeth in anger] I haven't found the All Blue yet! I'm not dead!

[Fuck death, and fuck this mountain. He turns to Nami, as earnest as he is pissed] C'mon! We're getting out of here!

[Because... even if they are dead - and they're not! They can't be. Just can't be... - staying by the mountain side isn't an option. They have to keep moving, or they really will freeze to death.

And Sanji didn't spend an eternity on some stupid rock to die. Without another word, he takes Nami's hand and starts walking]

O-okay-- [Whoops, tugged after a small blond kid. After a couple of faltering steps, she keeps pace, sniffling a bit. But at least she's not crying outright, just sort of...wibbling a bit. >_> Hush, I'm eight, I do what I want.

Also I need a distraction.] W-what's an All Blue?

[lil_eggplant]

[He'd feel bad jerking her like this, if not for the relentless drive to press forward, away from what could be a crushing truth. It's easier this way, and made even easier by someone with him.

But her question hits a very sensitive spot. He slows his pace, suddenly unsure and conflicted, between the swell of excitement and wariness of ridicule. The last time he announced his dream, an entire crew of bastard pirates laughed at him.

... He doesn't think she'll laugh, though. For whatever reason, he can't imagine it. So a little quietly]

It's my dream.

[mikanchibi]

Your dream? [She doesn't say anything else for a bit, but this is because he didn't give any other detail and Nami's trying to work out what an All Blue is without asking again and feeling stupid. But she's thoughtful.]

...I like dreams. [...why are you slowing down. Um. She squeezes his hand a little.] I won't tell anyone.

[lil_eggplant]

[...]

It's... [A slight gulp. But the hand-squeezing reassures him a little] It's a chef's paradise. [He tries not to sound so childish and excited about it, but with each passing word...] Fish from all the four blues are there! And I'm gonna find it one day! That's my dream!

[mikanchibi]

Really? [This excitement, it is infectious. It at least encourages her to smile, anyway.] I bet it's not on any map. You could sail for years. But it sounds delicious! I h-hope you find it.

[Too delicious *_* Her stomach is growling.]

[lil_eggplant]

It's not supposed to exist. [Stated a little humbly, but their enthusiasm is feeding off each other by now] But you're right! That just means no one's found it yet. [Puffing up with pride again] It's definitely out there.

[Ack. Stomach growling. It sets a frown on his face, momentarily, before he beams again] When we get to a village, I'll make you something, okay?

[mikanchibi]

Mm! Don't forget! [She feels better now. And look at that, holding things over your head already. 8|a LET'S GO, FELLOW ANGEL. An epic quest for shoes and food!]

U-um, I'm Nami.

[lil_eggplant]

[He blinks, because the name doesn't sound familiar so much as it... feels familiar.

... He's gonna blame this on the cold]

My name's Sanji! [He gives her hand a squeeze. Don't worry, Nami. u_u You are now under his protection. Not a thing shall harm you.]
