[voice] A stormy question

[justicereigns]

[Hello Luceti, is the nice little ice storm distracting you from post-Valentine's woes? Don't worry, here's a grumpy marine asking questions to painfully reminds you all.]

Seeing as we're all stuck inside -- [Once again, an usually feminine voice from Smoker's journal account.] -- I've got a question for everyone affected by the event.

Are there normally lines you won't cross in relationships that the Malnosso seem to cross for you? Or do they seem to take those into consideration instead? Since they seem to know us pretty well, it begs the question whether they're using our weaknesses, or if it's completely random.

And if anyone needs help out there in the storm, let me know. This weather is good practice.

[ooc: and feel free to threadjump like the dickens. It might be the only time Smoker keeps quieter than not, seeing as he's a girl now.]

[BAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Souji rolls back over, hand over his mouth, another pressing on his stomach as he tries to keep from laughing aloud. Smoker, y u so cute]

[BRB ANGRILY BLUSHING/TSUN-ING FOREVER.]

Oi! I do not!! [His voice is even high and squeaky in protest now, having lost all attempts to be dark and growly.]

action

[ahappylie]

[LOLOLOLOL THIS IS JUST MAKING IT MORE AMUSING. He can't stop laughing now, he's rolling over onto his knees, curling into a ball. Oh god, why are you so amusing.


ooc; also event thingies, was wondering if you're interested?]

action

[justicereigns]

I hate you.

[ooc: :o Oh snap I have no idea. I'm not sure I could pull off Shinigami!Smoker. He'd make an interesting human AU maybe? If other people have better characters though I don't want to take that slot, but if it's still open I'll snag it! Unless you want Fujiko!Shinigami instead. She'd be a total bro!sis with Grell.]

action

[ahappylie]

[He peeks out from his ball of laughter and smiles.]

I know~

[ooc; if you want to go for it, Grell would want to take Smoker home with her, but would respect his choice if he wanted to go back to his world. I'm good with either and there's some plans in the works to have Grell shove people through with Will either way. o/]

action

[justicereigns]

Tsk... [He REALLY wants to say something clever to that. Or at least snarky. But nope, still blushing and it throws him off balance.] At least be more ashamed about it.

[ooc: Nah, Smoker just came from there XD So he would like to see where Grell comes from. YOSH Count him in! I'll have to figure out the AU aspect later XD]

action

[ahappylie]

But why~? It's so much more fun this way~

[He pops up, causing the blankets that had been covering him to roll off. He's feeling much better now that he's had a chance to laugh and talk to someone.]

Besides, it's just a little teasing~

[ooc; Hokay! We can talk on the modpost or on plurk about the AU details.]

action

[justicereigns]

It's annoying. [Huffs and folds his arms again.]

action

[ahappylie]

Aw, but it was only a little [He makes a pinching motion with his forefinger and thumb] teasing.

action

[justicereigns]

Then what does "a lot" [Spreads his arms out] look like?

action

[ahappylie]

[Hello there, Chest.

Souji stares for a moment and then points.]

Like that.

action

[justicereigns]

[Blank stare.]

You know holding the arms out is just a metaphor, right?

[/sobs. My muse is too stupid for words...]

action

[ahappylie]

[He shakes his head and points to Smoker's chest again.]

Your shirt came open.

action

[justicereigns]

[Shrugs.]

Yeah? So? [Annoyed sigh and goes to zip up halfway.]

I still don't see the point.

action

[ahappylie]

[He laughs.]

I supp--

[But the laughter turns into coughing and he has to turn his head away.]

action

[justicereigns]

[Worried frown.]

You okay?

Re: action

[ahappylie]

[He nods his head, taking a few deep breaths that look more than a little labored before he takes a tissue from his sleeve and turns his face away. When he looks back at Smoker, he's smiling, if tired looking.]

I'm sorry. Did I surprise you?

Re: action

[justicereigns]

A little worried. I'm not wearing you out, am I?

Re: action

[ahappylie]

Please don't worry. I'm simply getting over this cold and sometimes it refuses to be gotten over.

Re: action

[justicereigns]

Are you sure it's just a cold?

Re: action

[ahappylie]

[...Oh, Smoker. He knows it's not. He knows and yet he can't tell you, or anyone for that matter.

He smiles.]

What would it be if it wasn't a cold?

Re: action

[justicereigns]

[Shrugs. A couple thoughts spring to mind, but he's not a doctor. And also, he's not sure if Grand Line illnesses exist anywhere else.]

A curse. [Hey, he's cursed, don't knock it.]

At least you can't die here, right?

Re: action

[ahappylie]

[He laughs.]

I hope it's not a curse.

[But yes he can die here, Smoker. It just isn't permanent. He hopes.]

And yes, at least I can't die here. It does make for an interesting outlook in all things, doesn't it?

Re: action

[justicereigns]

You mean reckless.

action

[ahappylie]

Depends on how you see it. I think it's rather lucky. People here, although they fear the repercussions of death, know it is not the end of everything. It gives them hope.
