[Video] + Locked to Whitebeards other than Ace

[justicereigns]

I need some advice on the best refractory material that can withstand extremely high temperatures and a near immediate cooldown. It has to cool white. And I need someone who can work scrimshaw on it without risking cracking or compromising the integrity. Thanks.

[Short and sweet as always.]

[Meanwhile, Smoker locks a message to Namur, Rip, Grell, and even Marco, though he basically hopes the Phoenix ignores it.]

I need to meet with you during Portgas' work hours. It's not an emergency, nothing's wrong, but it is important. Send me times, or stop by the shop, but not alone.

Not for me, Freckle-butt. For you. I want it to keep up with you. That's why it has to handle heat so well.

[burnt_offering]

Really? Damn you're spoiling me again.

[burnt_offering]

[But wait...]

Do I have freckles on my ass?

[justicereigns]

Yes. [Nods firmly.] Not that I counted them. [Yes, he did.]

[burnt_offering]

Huh. Didn't know. Then again, I've never looked.

[Sure, Smoker. Sure.]

[justicereigns]

Forty-two. If I had to place a bet.

[He's not obsessed.]

[Yes, he is.]

[burnt_offering]

That's pretty specific for someone who does count 'em.

[...Ace blinks.] That's a hell of a lot of freckles.

[justicereigns]

Yeah. I can't even count your shoulders. You're like a jaguar or something.

Not that I do count, but if I did.

*doesn't!!! Mobile tagging is a bitch

[burnt_offering]

I've got a lot more than people think. There's a lot of paler ones that get missed unless you're really close up.

...I swear this isn't the first time I've been compared to a wild cat.

I know this well and didn't even notice the typo lmfao

[justicereigns]

I'm not surprised. I did used to leave window open for you, after all.

At least I know the others haven't been scratched up in bed by you.

[burnt_offering]

Well that's your fault, isn't it? You kept feeding me, and let me come and go as I pleased. So I just decided not to go anymore.

Yeah, you have exclusive rights there.

[justicereigns]

Am I not supposed to like that?

[burnt_offering]

I'm glad you do. I'm kinda screwed if you don't.

[justicereigns]

You're more fucked that I do.

[burnt_offering]

And that's my ulterior motive. You know what I like.

[He snorts.]

But not everything is about sex, right?

[justicereigns]

Yeah. Just 4/5ths.

[burnt_offering]

I'm not complaining about that.

[justicereigns]

Better not be, brat.

[burnt_offering]

What happens if I do have a complaint?

[justicereigns]

I might have to spank you.

[Someday he won't get stupid and blushy over Smoker teasing him back.]

[burnt_offering]

Then I better keep it to myself. Wouldn't want to find myself over a knee.

[justicereigns]

It's cute you think I'd do it like that.

[burnt_offering]

How else can you do it?!

[justicereigns]

[Looooooooooooooooong look into the comm.]

[Very very VERY dryly:]

How much do you want to find out?
