"Goddammit you rotten little rat!!" He didn't care about the many people staring at him. And then he saw it... a little setup of fruit. Most people were distracted by him and the monkey so it made it easy for him to reach out and swipe a hand across the table to grab a bunch of bananas.
Zidane smirked triumphantly. He continued to run after the monkey, yelling crazily with bananas clutched against his chest and his tail wavered through the air after him. And then all at once he suddenly came to a stop and sidestepped into an alleyway, laughing his ass off.

Suddenly Blank was jarred from his rantings at the sound of a rather DISTURBED battle cry. "The hell?"
Only....he could swear he recognized the voice of that disturbed battle cry. He scanned over the crowd and spotted someone barreling after what looked like a monkey. The derranged guy flew past him and as his eye caught a flash of yellow, his jaw nearly hit the floor.
"No way," He said to himself. "No. Way."
Curious, Blank followed the maniac down the street. He saw him stop in an alley. He carefully stepped to the edge and gaped at the Blonde nearly on the floor laughing hysterically.
"Zidane?"

He spun around, still holding the bananas. "Holy fucking shit you're dead!"

Worried as hell about his friends, and Zidane was running through town like a lunatic stealing BANANAS!

"It's the perfect kind of greeting for someone who should be dead! It's completely logical!" Hey, he was worried as hell for a good while. And then he was told to move on with his life so he did. And now he was here. And Blank was here.
What the fuck.
"I can't believe you're bloody alive... you sure you're not just some delusion? Or a ghost coming to haunt me? That'd be just great! Horrible!" He knocked the bananas against Blank's head to make sure that he was real. "Damn. Holy shit, you really are here... Man, how'd you get to Panama? Have you seen anyone else?" Nah. He couldn't get his hopes up. "What are you doing here?"
Though maybe that was too many questions, but he just couldn't believe it. Blank's head would probably explode under the load. Even Zidane hadn't done much since the storm. He became a pirate... ha... funny that. But he was starting to see a bit of a place for him on the Artemis' Bow. Not as much as anything he had with Tantalus and his family on the Prima Vista, but ( ... )

Blank's eye widened slightly from the explosion of questions from his monkey tailed buddy and snatched one of the bananas he had tried to hit him with. He took a breath and attempted to answer a few. "Yes I'm alive! And, I think I just woke up here. I don't remember much after the storm. I saw Marcus get flung overboard and then I got hit with ...something and that was it. I havn't seen anyone else." He hated to say it, but there was nothing he could do about that.
But DAMN!! He had found Zidane! His fucking best friend!
....Wait. The ship. He was a pirate now, and they were gonna take off in a few days. Oh Hell, he couldn't leave Zidane behind. What was he gonna do??
He sighed and answered the last question. "I uh...joined a Pirate crew."

But then he finally found himself at full attention, and maybe even a bit excited. Even his tail was perked up and lively. "Pirate ship? Really? You? Hey, hey, what one??"
Reply
...what did he mean "What one"? He couldn't possibly know the ships, they've only been docked for a few days.
Unless.
"The Artemis' Bow. Why?" He said, half his mouth full of banana.
Reply
"The Bow? Are you serious?" Maybe it was Zidane who needed to see if he was dead or alive - a few bashings against a wall could possibly do it. He held back, for no anyway. "You're on my ship." He said it rather emotionlessly. He was staring at the banana, letting the information sink into his head. And then after a moment or two he tossed the banana over his side and pulled Blank into a headlock and started to screw with his hair. "You're on the same ship as me!!!"
Damn. Maybe life wasn't such a bad thing to live!
Reply
"YOUR ON MY SHIP!?!? Holy Shit!!" He couldn't believe it! What were the odds of that? It was Blank's turn to get excited.
"What do you do, man!?"
Reply
"I'm a Strategist, among others. Though I'm not sure how many people we've lost to Panama... but hey, if we've gained you, then I could care less! This is awesome." He wasn't giddy. Not at all.
Reply
"Well at least you won't get the ship lost, since I'm the Navigator." He calmed himself down and eat another bite of the banana. "And of course this is awesome. In no time we'll find Marcus, and Cinna, and probably Baku, too! It's just a matter of time!"
