Hey, Tama. Clothes shopping? [ says the shirtless wonder ]

[ballies]

[ he's just here and suddenly there are hoodies.


she just immediately whips around and is holding one up to him. get shirted, loser. ]

Yuuuup. Can't wear kigus the whole time, right?

[ for reference, she looks cute as fuck today ]

[selfimmolation]

[ adorable...

he looks baffled at her holding the shirt up to him but doesn't like. walk off. ]

Is that what those pajamas are called?

[ballies]

Kigurumi, yeah. They're normally full coverage and look like animals -- the hero thing is new.

[ stay very still, this is critical. ]

[selfimmolation]

[ he is a polite boy so he is letting it happen ]

Oh, animals makes a lot more sense. I had no idea what they were supposed to be. [ in theory one piece has heroes in practice ace was Not reading the marine propaganda comic ] It's kind of cute, I guess. Not really my thing.

[ballies]

Aw, why not? They're really cosy. I'm kinda glad they gave them to us actually.

[ she now knows the joy of a kigu. she's gonna make ryuki wear soooo many of them. ]

[selfimmolation]

I don't think I pull off "cutesy" that well. [ laughing. sweetie u do ur baby. ] And they're too warm for me.

[ also his tattoo but he is not talking specifically about his anti-shirt agenda, only his anti-kigu one ]

[ballies]

Anyone can pull off cutesy if they really try! [ they can.... ]

[selfimmolation]

Good to know? But it's not like I want to either.

[ballies]

Okay but.


It would be really funny if you did.

[selfimmolation]

[ well, he laughs, but; ]

I'm good. Can I move? I don't know what you're doing with the hoodie.

[ballies]

I never said you couldn’t. These are nice quality, you should get one.

[selfimmolation]

No thanks! It's pretty warm in the city, and I don't want to cover up my pride.

[ ........ has not explained he means his tattoo so feel free to assume he means his titties ]

[ballies]

[ she does just looks at his tits and then back at his face like ‘literally, mine are bigger’ ]

[selfimmolation]

[ HELP HE'S LAUGHING but he turns around to show off his tattoo ]

Hey, hey, what are you thinking-- I'm talking about this!

[ballies]

[ hers are still bigger. ]

Oh?

[ the way i just googled the tattoo and lost it at the ‘tache. help. ]

… You know sun exposure makes a tattoo fade faster, right?

[selfimmolation]

[ the mustache is the most important part. ]

I'm not worried about stuff like that. [ that is a later problem!! ] I'm not going to hide Whitebeard's mark unless I have to.

[ballies]

[ it’s amazing. ]

You named your tattoo Whitebeard?

[ it doesn’t have a beard…… ace… ace… it doesn’t have a bEA— ]

[selfimmolation]

That'd be pretty messed up! [ he's dying ] No, that's my captain! I'm part of Whitebeard's crew, and this is his jolly roger. Our flag.

[ in case she doesn't like. know. pirate terms. ]

[ballies]

[ ……………………………. ]

Like a … pirate?

[selfimmolation]

Did I not say I was? I haven't exactly been keeping it a secret.

[ballies]

It hasn’t come up. [ arrests him immediately — no. ]

The Golden Age of piracy ended nearly 300 years ago where I’m from.

[selfimmolation]

Huh. [ huh. ] Well, the Great Age of piracy's been going on for... about twenty two years.

[ballies]

[ huh. ]

So you’re from… the 1670s…?

[selfimmolation]

We don't count years like that, so I'm pretty sure I'm just not from your world at all.
