Business as usual meaning never a dull moment on the Grand Line

doubt_me Count me in on this game Wolf.

Whoever is on deck swabbing duty, please make sure to deal with the blood stain appropriately.

I have a special job and I'm taking volunteers.

Tashigi, I got one. Her name is Suzie. And I used the jitte. It's weaker, but thanks. I'll just get stronger.



Karen, a word?
Yuzuriha, Pearl, Trucy, Happy, Lala, likewise, a word please.
Nevan, when are you leaving and when are you getting back?

Tsuzuki is in the infirmary. It better not be for long. All marines are to be on notice and keep an eye out for anything suspicious. Should you see something that fits the description, report it to me immediately.

There's a storm front coming and I want all able hands ready at a moment's notice. It looks to be lethal.

Garp... No. Forget it.

To pirate scum? Go to hell. No exceptions.

Is there a difference?

[justicereigns]

Storms, ships, pirate tactics. Ever fought in a group with other marines at your side against a large group?

There's only one way to survive this ocean, and that's to keep getting stronger and move forward.

[inugamikeeper.livejournal.com]

I've fought along side other people before.

Is that how you spend your days, Smoker-san?

[justicereigns]

Hm.

You could say that. It's not all I do, but I do it with all my being, if that makes sense to you.

[inugamikeeper.livejournal.com]

Do you ever relax?

[justicereigns]

Yes but I have a different definition of that from most people.

[inugamikeeper.livejournal.com]

You do?

[justicereigns]

Yes.

I like my job. Not the paperwork, but the justice. Arresting pirates. Protecting people.

I have interests outside of that, they just have a tendency to have that at its core. I like drinking, but usually because pirate dives have good rum and it's easy to spot pirate or wait them out. Kickboxing, same thing. Books are usually tactics, history, politics, philosophy and sociology but not all.

[inugamikeeper.livejournal.com]

That doesn't sound really healthy.

[justicereigns]

You sound like Rinali. And Tashigi. And Hina.

[inugamikeeper.livejournal.com]

They're probably right then.

[justicereigns]

No, just ridiculous. Alcohol hardly affects me the same way, cigars are good for me, and so is the exercise.

[inugamikeeper.livejournal.com]

It's still bad for your body.

[justicereigns]

How so?

[inugamikeeper.livejournal.com]

Smoking and alcohol start breaking your body down. Exercise is good but too much can be unhealthy as well, just like too much work and stress.

[justicereigns]

I'm made of smoke. It's a devil fruit curse. There's nothing to break down; it's already gone.

As for stress... Not much I can do about that. I can't work less since pirates aren't going to take a break just because I'm having a bad month. Or two.

[inugamikeeper.livejournal.com]

What about the people around you that breathe in your smoke though?

I'm sure that you can find more time to relax a little.

ooc: That part about 2nd Smoker smoke really is canon

[justicereigns]

Hn. I open windows when others around and since I can control the smoke, I keep it out of their way.

Doubtful. Perhaps this is payback for taking it easier the first few months Karen was here.

[inugamikeeper.livejournal.com]

Still. That doesn't sound like a healthy lifestyle.

[justicereigns]

I don't aim to be a hundred, just see through justice though.
