Luffy was playing in the blooming cherry trees down by the lake.

The snow was fun, but he was glad it was gone and warm again.

"Neehehe" He giggled, Bouncing on the boughs and shaking scattered petals loose.

He was getting bored though, and wondered how long until some one passed by.... he was lonely.

Luffy stood waiting outside of Lucrecia's office, waiting as patiently as a Luffy could. He had the morning news bulliten in hand.

She had said her office had an open door policy for any questions.

Luffy stood in the middle of the campus green. With an enormous, hand written sign proclaiming in bold letters proclaiming "HIRE ME TO DO ANYTHING! ONLY ACCEPTING MONEY!"

"Heeeeey! If you pay me I'll do something!" He shouted to people as they passed by, flailing enthuiastially.

Luffy shot a glance at his navigator with a good bit of a hangdog expression. She seemed to be really angry with him.

And apparently even if you didnt go to class, or take a test, it still counted. That was lame.

"...Eh Nami, are you gonna make me go home now?" He asked cautiously.
