[Action // Locked to Luffy]

[When Bellemere opened her eyes and gazed up at the round, orange fruit in her sight, her first thought was that she was stuck as a ghost tending to the damn orchard. The wings? They didn't help. Neither did the plain white dress (a dress like this? not my style). She's still a tad too drugged to walk in a straight line

You looking for Good Spirits? [ this is a bored, bedridden bartender using the journal more than he ever has in his entire stay here. and damn, he feels gross right now. damn wing. damn draft. ugh. cold. ]

Re: [ voice]

[mikandelinquent]

If 'Good Spirits' and 'a bar' are one in the same, then definitely. After all, nothing like a cold one to end a hectic afternoon, right?

[ voice]

[moezuo]

It's the only bar in the village. [ a beat. ] I don't drink. But I work there.

Re: [ voice]

[mikandelinquent]

Good Spirits, then. Got it.

[She can't help the pang of amusement in her voice at that.]

A bartender who doesn't drink? There's one I've never heard before.

[Luffy doesn't notice her yet, but she might hear the faint sounds of him talking as he wanders through the orchard picking mikans and putting them in a straw basket.]

Oooohoohooo~! Nami's gonna be so excited when she finds out I got her mikans! [Probably some rustling going on in those mikan trees over there.] They're not even the ones from the store either! Straight from her orchard. [And now that the basket is full to maximum levels he just smiles at it with a big grin.]

Ah, if she eats all of these she'll definitely get better.

Re: [Action]

[mikandelinquent]

[The voice is very unfamiliar for being in the orchard. But him saying Nami's name is definitely reason to be bristled with a heightened sense of alert that her sluggish mood would usually be less susceptible to.

Alright, kid, where are you? B|

She'll talk walking until she sees him from the back--straw hat, basket of mikans, jovial talking-to-oneself. The question is, will she end up punching him in the face for trespassing and stealing. :|a]

Hey. You.

[She feels dizzy, but like hell that shortens any wave of grumpiness from her stance. If she's dead, now's a good time to figure it out.]

Re: [Action]

[gomugomunopwn]

Hnn?

[And then he'll turn around to face her. Oh hey lady in a white dress.]

Oh, oi! Are you new? You should probably be careful around the orchard. You don't want anyone to think you're trespassing and stealing! Hahahaha! [He's joking! Kind of.]

Re: [Action]

[mikandelinquent]

[...]

Then what exactly are you doing, trespassing and stealing?

[this kid

is a doofus.]

[Action] At the bar?

[flamesofanger]

[Well if Bellemere is hitting the bar for a drink, she definitively won't be alone. Ikki's already there, downing alcohol as if it's water, before Smoker notices him missing again and goes drag him back home and handcuff him to something there so he doesn't keep trying to get drunk.

He's not drunk yet though, but he's starting with enthusiasm.]

Re: [Action] :|b yessir

[mikandelinquent]

[She'll just give him a look from her own seat nearby.]

Sure love your liquor, do you.

[Action]

[flamesofanger]

[Returning that look.]

It's a good way to end the day.

[And to forget things.]

Re: [Action]

[mikandelinquent]

Well, as long as you don't make it a bad way to start the morning, I can't disagree with you there.

[and she follows up with drinking hers.]

[oda_hates_me]

[Whelp, assuming Luffy brings her straight home to the SH house, Bellemere will run into Sanji in the kitchen eventually (and it's doubtful it will be the last time she ever runs into him there). His back turned and not paying too much attention to the footfalls, he can only assume his captain has finally made an appearance, and so he calls out a proper greeting]

Oi oi, Luffy, you're late with those mikans. Nami-san needs our full attention!

[gomugomunopwn]

[Oh suddenly he's RIGHT behind you Sanji. With a huge grin on his face. Poking at your back with both fingers. He's really excited.]

Hehehehehe! Sanji! Sanji! I have the biggest surprise for Nami!

1/2

[mikandelinquent]

[To which this not-so-mysterious lady is standing like so in the doorway behind the strawhat kid. With everything slowly falling into place in her head, she's looking... surprisingly cool with everything. If she's dead, she'll appreciate the luxury, and if she's alive, she'll appreciate... you know. That part.

... She is really nervous about seeing her daughter again, after the way... she'd left her. Quietly, she puts a hand out at Sanji and makes a familiar sort of motion.]

[mikandelinquent]

....You wouldn't happen to have a cigarette on you, would you?

[c_c yeah, sup sanji]

[mikangirl]

[Please excuse your daughter for not getting up to greet you, Bellemere. She's still recovering from pneumonia the plague a cold that got out of hand and is curled up in bed and paying attentin to absolutely nothing.

...except for Luffy, who's always very loud when he comes back to the house. But she's used to that, and after a faintly irritated mutter she just pulls the covers up to her ears and tries to go back to sleep again.]

[gomugomunopwn]

[Well this time Nami. He's actually speaking softly. This will probably only ever happen once. You should enjoy it. He knocks on the door frame.]

Nami... [And he's going to just walk over to the bed and pat at her shoulder a bit.] Oi, Nami. Wake up.

[mikangirl]

[Oh pfft, she's heard soft-speaking Luffy before.

...usually when something's wrong. Nami opens her eyes a crack and gives him a wary look.]

Whssup?

[gomugomunopwn]

Come on sit up! There someone I want you to meet--

Oh yeah! Shanks is here too! We were drinking in the bar and we had some of that blue stuff. And it was a lot of fun! He-- [.... oh yeah! Before he gets horribly off track.] Anyway sit up. There's someone really important you should talk to.
