[This is a man who sounds pretty angry. Of course if you know Smoker well, then you might know he often sounds like that. Still, even for Smoker, clearly something's set him off.]

Welcome to New Feathers, if you haven't heard about the Shifts or Drafts yet, I suggest you look into it. If you want to learn basic self defense I could teach you, or Chun-Li could, or any of other teachers who offer it. Normally I'd offer to teach jitte as well, but I'm using flimsy knock-offs right now because some idiot seems to have borrowed it without permission.

[And here he gives a lethal glare to the camera.] I know a pirate took it before, and I've spent all this month hunting you down. I don't know who took it, but step forward now and I'll be far more lenient than if you continue to make me wait!

[His tone suggests that "lenient" means he'll only beat the thief half to death instead of two-thirds.]

I'll be by the barracks stacking rocks. [And making a snowman. Not that he's going to admit to that to anyone. Except kids maybe.]

Mm...you're not from my world, then. [She sounds disappointed. Because she is. She's yet to find anyone from her world, not that she's looked very hard. She'd like to meet someone who is.] They get harder than the scavenger hunt, huh? That's kinda the feeling I got.

Oh? Who took it last time? [She's surprised someone would do that sort of thing more than once.]

[Snorts.] I'm not interested in dealing with the Malnosso. If that's your concern, have fun with it.

The idea of wasting my time with something that will get reset just isn't worth it.

There is something which will not reset, you simpleton. Conquest.

No, but I think there are others from your world. I've heard of America at least. And my girlfriend is from... [Presses at his temples for a bit thinking hard.] England. Lupin's from France, and Kotomi-chan... I forget where she's from, but roughly the same world.

And yeah, usually the shifts are a lot worse, but they get easier after your first bad one. Usually.

[Grunts.] Honestly, I'm not one hundred percent sure. I think one of the idiots took it to deal with Blackbeard, but then they got sent home so I found it across the hall, where one of the Whitebeard pirates were before.

We all know that you can...

Cap. Was the tinsel for real or a joke?

I won't remember it, so yeah, it will.

That was a lovely side effect from the Malnosso.

Idiot.

[There's a wry laugh.]

They hit me too. Hard.

Word to the wise? Don't give a monkey any coffee.

[He wouldn't be making that mistake again.]

[Arches an eyebrow.]

While I never had any intentions of doing so, should I even ask what happened?

Besides, doesn't this mean I can't offer you any anymore? [>:)]

....Cute.

Let's just say that our keepers like to make it hard for me to talk. [Because nothing will ever give him enough incentive to tell the Marine that the Malnosso made him a tiny monkey. :| ]

But that's actually a good idea. Let's get coffee. You in your flat or the barracks?

Is she? [His ears practically flick at that.] But a pirate, correct? [Not that he's prejudi-- Okay yeah, he is. Heavily.]

Tch. The Demon Woman stole my handcuffs before, and seems to have taken a delight in making herself an eternal nuisance, so yes, I do.

Maybe it's because you don't shut up when they capture you. They seem to try to give me more reasons to speak.

Barracks. I've still got my practice jittes.

[ SMOKER, WHAT ARE YOU DOING.. you're making Kotomi here all wibbly by being so angry! ]

S.. Smoker-kun..?

But talking is the only way I can make them suffer when they take me.

[At least, during the moments that he could remember clearly. When he wasn't dreaming of sultry evenings in Copacabana.]

...I've gotta admit, they won this round. I dreamed of the tropics and it snowed here. So cold~

Mm, that's what I thought at first, but there are things like superheroes and stuff that don't exist in my world.

Lupin's from Japan, though. [She has no idea how she knows that. She just does. It's too familiar for her not to. Oh, well. Not a big deal.]

Mm...that's what I expected to hear. I'm just an idol, I don't really know how to handle all of the extreme stuff!

I guess I could stop by and ask them about it.

[There's a small young woman (at least she looks young) dressed in a heavy coat and a scarf wrapped around her head to keep her ears warm. The offer at teaching self-defense interested her - Raylene never really learned how to do much beside waving a knife around and hoping that'd be threatening enough. It usually did work, but she wasn't afraid to stick someone if she had to.

Still - that ain't gonna do her a lick of good in a draft. And she can't do much damage without fangs or claws. So. Self-defense it was.]

You still offerin' some self-defense?

[She doesn't seem jittery when she speaks up to the man; but she's not stupid either - Raylene keeps her distance until she can deem him less than an outright threat.

And if he's building a snowman when she walks up - well she won't say anything.]

I'd really appreciate it sweetheart.

And if they don't have it, at least you got to say hi, right?

You're not a winter kind of guy, I take it?

I see. But the history books are still the same?

An idol?

You're right. I don't get to see my friends nearly enough these days, anyway.
