[ smashes his face into the food GOOD MORNING RISE AND SHIIIIIIINE.



no she doesn't do this. she gets out her phone and takes a bunch of pictures though. ]

[selfimmolation]

[ he does not wake up at any of the pictures or any other noise. after a while he just blearily lifts his head up though ]

Huh...? [ there is rice sticking to his face. he just kind of rubs at it before finally noticing tama ] Oh. Hey.

[ballies]

[ absolutely gets a photo of sleepy ace rubbing rice off his face as well. ]

Morning sleepyhead.

You really passed out in dinner, huh?

[selfimmolation]

[ wipe wipe ]

Mm...? Yeah, that happens. [ like it's normal??? he's done cleaning his face and squints at tama tho ] What are you doing with your phone out?

[ballies]

Taking photos of you snoring into your dinner. I'll probably send them to Nimona later.

[ at least she's honest. ]

[selfimmolation]

You don't need a picture, I'll probably do it in front of everyone at one point or another. I can't help it.

[ he acts like he doesn't care but he sounds sulky ]

[ballies]

Not sleeping well?

[ why do you fall asleep in your food, ace ]

[selfimmolation]

Nah, it's just something that happens. Only when I'm eating, though, so it's fine!

[ sometimes you have Comedic Narcolepsy ]

[ballies]

[ just this moment of Concern because he apparently just passes out in his dinner on the regular? ]

... Wait, is this every time you eat?

[selfimmolation]

Not every single time?

[ but like. yea. a lot ]

[ballies]

[ one piece: this is funny.
everyone else: this worries me. ]

Well if you’ve survived it this long…

[selfimmolation]

It's just falling asleep, it's not a big deal. And mostly I've gotta be sitting down, so it's not so bad.

[ballies]

It’s less the “falling over and injuring yourself” part and more the “risk of suffocation from blocked airways, either from being face down in the food or from inhaling food directly into your trachea” that I’m a littttle concerned over.

[selfimmolation]

[ uses my ugliest icon for this ]

I don't usually swallow when I fall asleep, so it's probably fine?

[ballies]

[ thank you for your service. ]

Your nose connects to your windpipe, Ace.

[selfimmolation]

Food doesn't go in there...?

[ somehow. ]

[ballies]

Your face is buried in the food. And presumably you’re breathing?

[ how does he achieve this other than “one piece logic” ]

[selfimmolation]

... I don't know, I'm asleep?

[ the true answer is it doesn't last that long and people assume he's gone and died half the time so maybe he doesn't fuckin breathe ]

[ballies]

…

[ help her ]

If you’re not, then you must have super lungs or something. Or have evolved beyond basic human concepts like “needing oxygen”.

[selfimmolation]

Nah, I've definitely been choked out. [ and. drowned. ] Maybe you're worrying too much!

[ballies]

You really just told me you've been choked out but it's all cool, huh?

[ ... (smash cut to me sighing as i remain ic) ]

Well, as long as it's all safe, sane and consensual.

[selfimmolation]

... I mean, it was happening in fights, so I don't know where consent lies there.

[ in theory he agreed to the fights in practice he did not want to be choked out ]

[ballies]

[ i feel like you using the same icon in all three recent replies kinda sums up this cr.

anyway. :) ]

Ohhh, in a fight, huh? I guess... when you start the fight and they retaliate?

[selfimmolation]

Hey, why do I have to be the one starting the fights? [ well. she's right tho he laughs ] Yeah, pretty much. Hasn't really happened as much since I got my Devil Fruit, but I got choked out a few times as a kid until I started using a pipe to fight.

[ballies]

[ she just looks at him like are you trying to tell me you didn't start the fights, sir. she snorts when he just admits to using a pipe though. ]

Yeah, a pipe's a good deterrent. Although, uh-- Devil Fruit?
