Oi. Anyone who's been here longer than me. Everything around going to shit, the ghosts and buildings and dead fish-and the stupid costumes-s'it the same as all the other weird crap that happens here or is it something else? Never seen the whole goddamn place change before.  ...Better not be permanent. Fucking tattoos.

[Well, she hasn't quite got to your post on the network yet, Zoro. Hiding in room from the apocalypse outside? Check. Nerves shot to hell as a result of that and this stupid costume that won't come off? Check.

...Possibly the first post she saw this morning being the Grim Reaper was just icing on the cake this morning. Don't mind the screaming and clattering coming from Nami's bedroom being cut off with a sudden thud, or anything. Nothing to worry about. Honest.

No, really.]

[Action] We really need to make a house layout >.>a

[strayswordsman]

[Okay, then! Not worrying about it! :Db ...By which I mean Zoro was walking down the hallway at the time, so he pauses and gives Nami's door a sidelong look.

Then he goes over and sticks his head in.]

Oi. You're not being attacked, are you.

[Weird things are happening, okay; normally shrieking from Nami isn't worthy of note, at least in their own house, but better not to take chances right now.]

[Action] That would be handy at some point :|a

[namigational]

[Psh, you say that like Nami screams on a regular basis.

...okay well, she does but it's usually important, okay. 8| In any case, the navigator in question will be found sprawled on the floor with her back to the dresser and one foot still up on the bed, and she's gone from screaming to swearing between her teeth because ow, dresser corners hurt dammit, and she'll just flail at Zoro for a second before going back to clutching her arm. :|]

Skeleton on the Dreamberry!

[...no, not our skeleton 8|]

[Action] /puts on To-Do list...with /find home architect program as the # before it >.>

[strayswordsman]

Not our skeleton? [...Because Zoro is Captain Obvious sometimes. >_>a

He comes in further, flicking a glance over the sprawled-out Nami to make sure hitting her arm is the only thing that's wrong with her, then just leaning against the door-frame when it's clear that that's all. She's fine, obviously.]

There's another talking skeleton around?

[in his room, busy trying to rip his own costume off, but it obviously isn't working much to his extreme frustration, and the fact that Robin-chan has been missing for a couple days now and Zoro's post just reminded him of that all over again really did not help his mood]

[so he practically snarls at his Dreamberry]

Your shitty tattoos would be a fucking godsend right now-what the HELL is going on??!

[strayswordsman]

[On the roof, scowling out alternately at the changed landscape and the marks on his skin that aren't scars, that aren't there by his own actions.]

Does it sound like I know, shithead? And you didn't even get hit, you can't talk.

...

[goes quiet and somewhat shifty-eyed, not that Zoro will be able to see that because Sanji is suddenly very carefully angling the Dreamberry screen...away]

Right... [huffs, tugging some more at the shitty cape tied around his neck as he glares at himself in the mirror he's standing in front of] Those things really haven't faded at all? No sign of them disappearing??

[Video]

[strayswordsman]

[shortly] No.

[A pause like that's all he's going to say, then he blows out an irritated breath.] And it doesn't look like anyone else can get out of whatever they've been stuck in, either. [This shit had so better not be permanent. >8|]

[have some impromptu strumming from a whimsical minstrel]

Stories say that this world has been through a lot. Care to hear an ol' minstrel's tales of yore?

[ video ]

[strayswordsman]

Eh? [...That almost looks like a really flamboyant pirate's outfit, so Zoro doesn't blink too hard at it. Plus, music, and Relevant Info.] If they've got anything to do with shit like this happening before, then yeah.

[ video ]

[rainofheaven]

[sigh.] No appreciation for the arts, I tell ya. [a sad strum]

But where to start this ol' minstrel's, tale? Well for starts, this ain't the first time costumes have been bestowed upon us. Seems like it's a Halloween thing, and it's happened every year now.

[ video ]

[strayswordsman]

Every year...then it's temporary.

...What's 'Halloween'?

[Action wooooo]

[strayswordsman]

[Oh hai captain. That thing looks really weird on you, and it obscures your expression...kind of. Okay, not significantly, with as Big as your expressions are, but it's still weird.]

Is it supposed to?

[Action yeeeehaw]

[strayswordsman]

Hohh. ...Maybe because you already have powers. [Except Zoro's doesn't seem to do anything, either...]

[resonancy]

... It's a bit creepier than usual, but it wouldn't be the first time the entire city changed like this.

[strayswordsman]

...Yeah? [PLEASE, tell him more. Interested expression is interested!]

[resonancy]

Some time ago all of Somarium turned into nothing but one huge jungle-- it stayed like that for a week, but afterwards everything went back to normal.

[strayswordsman]

Oh. [And after a moment some of the tension eases out of him.] Good to know.
