justicereigns | Smoker's return [Action / Video]

[The minute Smoker realizes he's back in Luceti, he gets his jitte. Like hell he's letting some pirate take it for a few months again. Then there's the basic things. A month's supply of cigars, and oh, isn't that nice of him, they even thought to get him a bunch of his own marine brand. They literally say marine on the little gold tabs, so surely no pirates would want to try them, right? Then it's off to get coffee, prowl around the general vicinity and head on home. As he's heading inside, the sheer amount of packages he's carrying jostles the journal open.]

Ikki, I have to thank you for the Cosmos-- Haki... [Annoyed growl. No Ikki. :| Figures. So he goes to open the journal for real and everyone can get a look at Smoker, two years later, no longer wearing his hair in ~~awesome~~ spikes, sunglasses, a giant scar, but still 100% Smoker.] Where the hell is Ikki? And how long have I been gone that he moved out? [He can tell Ikkk is still in Luceti, if not where, but what the hell man?] What's the date?

Right, to everyone else, I'm Vice Admiral Smoker. [Oh that's right, he uses his real title now. Watch out world.] As soon as I can, I'd like to get back into teaching jitte and kickboxing. Any old or new students, we'll meet at the barracks. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays are open sessions, the other days can be scheduled for private hours or one on one sparring. If anyone spots a marine, let me know. Do not try to engage anyone from G5 in a regular conversation, they've earned their reputation as being pyromaniac psychos, just send them my way and I'll deal with them. [There is no affection to that. If anything "deal with them" sounds a little like "beat senseless and chain to a wall somewhere." Anyone want to laugh at him for his choice of command post?]

I assume we must be in a New Feather cycle, so welcome to Luceti. There are other people teaching forms of martial arts or filial magic, but unless the Drafts and missions have stopped -- which I doubt -- you'll want to take advantage of at least one form if you can.

All right, that's all.

[Feel free to action jump Smoker anytime before getting home, or right afterwards because he will be out and about being Smoker.]

[Well. If you insist.

She races him, using the sort of power that let her cross a city in minutes, sliding to a stop a few meters ahead and going for a tackle.]

[Grunts at the tackle, trying to skid to a stop and switch directions, but no good, so he just tries to roll with it and pin her rather than be pinned.]

[She does end up on the bottom, but instead of letting that deter her, Grell wraps her legs around Smoker's and twists, trying to flip him over with the help of her hands grabbing his jacket lapels.

She prefers to fight with style and grace, but when it comes down to it, being a little rough is never bad.]

[Well, he's flipped again for now, but just reaches for her glasses and to to try to throw her off balance with another kiss. Who says only pirates can't fight fair?]

[Ooh glasses are a no-no for her. She snatches his hand, but gets caught by the kiss. That's just plain playing dirty, Smoker.]

[Exactly. So now he flips her back back over, grinning as cockily as ever.]

Equal exchange, I'm keeping the sunglasses. Besides, you don't need them to ensure I'll show up tomorrow. You've already got my heart.

[He really is bad at this.]

[....That was terrible, but she laughs at it, giving him a look.]

If you insist, but I hope you'll be leaving them off for the evening? Sunglasses at night are sooo overrated.

They're comfortable, but I'll keep them off around you. I promise.

As comfortable as they are, I like your eyes and it's a shame to hide them.

[He gets a quick kiss and a smile.]

Thank you.

[Blushes at both the compliment and quick kiss.]

For what? [Must maintain tsuntsun...]

Oh, you'll see. I'll be sure to repay you in kind tomorrow.

Should I be nervous or excited?

[That gets a smirk.]

Isn't that the fun of not knowing?

Little bit of both then.

Should I let you go for now, or do you want help settling in first?

[On the 11th, in the afternoon, she's moving into Apartment 26 next to theirs thanks to Ikki as a surprise to Smoker; just so you know.]

You have a lesson to get to and I believe I need to find a new coat now that we've rolled about on the ground.

[Lol Ikki and Smoker keep translating each other's tsun-tsun to people. This is why they're best friends. That and so when they shoot themselves in the foot, the other whacks them in the head and fixes it.]

Oh. Right. Sorry about that. [You know. A little. Mostly he enjoyed the hell out of it. And also meh. Clothes shopping. He did remember she enjoyed that a lot, but yeah she can do that on her own.]

All right, have fun and I'll see you tomorrow!

[Yup, and this also means they need to tagteam Ikki about his love life. ufufu]

Only apologize if there's something to be sorry about. [She sits up a bit, bringing her face close to his.] Don't be late tomorrow.

[Yeees. And maybe this year Smoker won't get drunk on his birthday (White Day). Because he'll want to know what happens with Ikki and Kotomi-chan. So nosy.]

[And he grins and lightly kisses her in response to that.]

I won't, I promise.

[ooh right, bday is today. 8)]

Good. Then I'll see you tomorrow, let's say...6 o'clock?

Six is fine. See you then.

[Kisses the top of her hand very briefly and runs off.]

[ooc: I'm looking forward to people making him more fanart already B)]
