justicereigns | [Video] / Action // Holiday Cheer?

[LOOK EVERYONE! It's Santa! OMG I KNOW THAT GUY!!!!]

[Wait. What is he doing in Luceti? And why is he smoking two cigars? Surely that is setting a very bad example for the kids! And dang, don't those scars look a little familiar? Along with the scowling face? Why yes! It's Smoker! Back from his kidnapping! He clears his throat gruffly and... wait for it.... wait for it....]

[Why yes! That is Smoker, dressed as Santa, caroling. It's a holiday miracle!]

Have a holly jolly Christmas....

[He sounds like someone just killed his pet. Dear god, that's about as far from "holly jolly as you can get!]

It's the best time of the year.
I don't care if there'll be snow.
I just want a rum and beer.

[... Um. We're experiencing some technical difficulties, as a green little elf hand stops the journal transmission. After a few seconds he comes back and TRIES to be a little more cheerful...ish.]

Have a holly jolly Christmas
And when you walk down the street... [He twitches. Can he do it? Can he keep up this masquerade of holiday spirits and Santa Claus holly jolly warmth?!]
Say hello to --

No. That's it. I'm done. Keep your damn rum cookies you tyrant! I'm out of here.

[And he storms out, shutting off his journal to take it with him.

[Action:]

[If anyone wants to find him, he's skipping teaching lessons today and just bumming around the bar instead. Still stuck in his Santa costume. It doesn't come off. And thus his immense frustration. Besides Chun-Li already mentioned covering them so fuck it. Time for booze. Also, if no one stops him, he'll be lighting up his cigars with a cigar menorah. Yes. A cigar menorah. Too bad no matter how he tries he can't seem to pry the cigars out of there. Oh... and he does try. At least they keep smoking and smelling vaguely pine like! Awww how festive.]

God damn it! These cigars don't even taste like cigars! I might as well just be eating candy canes!! [Gives up and stubs them out, slumping his head into the bar. Being Smoker is suffering. Not to mention... what the hell is in that sack he's got anyway?]

[Wait...what? Cross is just....staring. Unsure how to react to this. But there were kids right? So maybe just go along with Smoker's charade for now.]

Um...oh wow, Santa! You got a really...interesting song there!

[Horrible lying is horrid.]

[Dude, don't make him flip you off.]

[Okay. Deep breath for Smoker and he just huffs and waves.] Yeah, whatever. Let the elves finish it if they're so damn keen on it.

Oh you mean those little guys asking people to do stuff? I dunno. I think that's against the rules.

[Cross when were there rules to this?]

I don't really give a fu-- [Twitches and is forced to censor that.] Furry reindeer's antler about the rules.

[SCOWLS FOREVER.]

Than why are you dressing up like that? I'm pretty sure this is all optional.

Edited 2012-12-21 00:49 (UTC)

You'd be wrong.

I just got back from a kidnapping. Stuffed in this thing. And it doesn't come off.

[He tugs at the hat in demonstration, and it appears as stuck on him as his very real scruff.]

At least the buttons come undone. I can't breathe in shirt.

They...kidnapped you?! And they thought it'd be a fun idea to stick you in clothes that don't come off. Creepy.

Are you sure you can't like...cut it off?

I tried that with the bear costume they did one year.

If I can't get out using my da-- [Grinds teeth on cigars] dreidel [Seriously this curse is killing him.] devil fruit, I can't get out with anything.

And I think the effect is getting worse. [Drags a palm down his face.] At this rate I'm going to wake up tomorrow covered in little blinking colored lights.

Bear costume?

[Probably a story for another time.]

Hoh boy, that sounds rough.

Um well, I guess there's nothing I can do to help. If there is though, let me know.

Yeah, that was for Halloween. But another time I got stuck dressed as... someone else. [He's not going to say Luffy, and you can't make him.] And my jitte and cuffs kept chasing me. [Twitch.]

Hn. Thanks. For now, I think I'll settle for getting drunk and trying to get the candy cane taste out of my mouth.

I wonder if that standing chandelier's cigars come off... [Eyes them.]

As...someone else? [Huh did he just say...]

Your clothes...chased you? Well than, I'll be sure to staple mine down if that happens again here.

Standing chandelier? Well, you could try cutting them off. That could work.

The clothes didn't chase me, my weapon and handcuffs did. [Twitches.] It's a long story.

You can't cut cigars like that or all the filling comes apart.

...That's still really freaky.

Can't you just re roll them or something?

Far worse I'd say.

No, because you cut off the end of the rolled paper. Here, roll up a piece of paper as tight as you can, cut it and then try to redo it and you'll see what I mean.

I meant re roll it in another one of those paper things, not the same one. But fine, I get your point.

[At least he won't be able to smoke himself to death.]

There wouldn't be any point, I'm not hurting for tobacco filling that badly.

[He's still got cigars, they just all taste like candy canes right now :|]

[Does that make the smoking any better though?]

Oh. Well try and have a Merry Christmas regardless.

Tch. I'll manage.

You too. You want a candy cane?

[Yeah that never gets less weird to offer.]

...That's not like a code word for cigar right?

[but he'll take it that's not the case.]

No, it's a real candy cane.

Although my cigars currently taste like candy canes.

Sure than. Thanks, Smoker.

Anytime. Besides I assume this is all part of the curse. Who the fantastic faerie lights knows what might happen next if I try to fight it.

[THINGS LIKE SAYING WEIRD STUFF LIKE THAT!]

Probably getting a rounder belly for one.

Tch... Not you too.

I'm not getting fat. Santa or not.

Well I hope not. You're already big enough as it is!

[Sorry Smoker he's teasing now.]
