[he peers into the camera for a moment, seemingly undecided about something. Then raises a hand]

Hello... I've taken the job of an elementary school teacher, because... .... No I don't feel like explaining.

[but he sets the camera down and tries to adjust himself so he's mostly in the frame. It doesn't work very well and the tie looks a little more like this]

Is this outfit appropriate?

[he hopes so... he's already paid the tailor an absorbent amount.]

Comments

[youfool]

[There's something funny and endearing about that. If he could only articulate why.]

"What a pity; I should very much like to hear that explanation. Which city?"

[lazyjustice]

[he adjusts the camera until it is face level again.]

Attleton. [he hopes they have high ceilings there] Are you familiar with the elementary school?

[youfool]

"Heh, that makes sense. By far the most serene place for a school to be in." When Diablo wasn't wreaking unholy havoc, anyway. "Afraid not; the first institution that comes to mind is the Second Honnouji Academy. Like yourself, it's titanic."

[lazyjustice]

[figures that he didn't get that place. He should have done his homework.

...but that was for the students to do he supposes]

Perhaps we'll form a rivalry. I could probably put together a mock battle. [since rivalry at the Marine Academy tended to involve war games. And who is more warlike than children? They know no rules. Only victory]

[youfool]

Haha, if I didn't know better I'd say you know Star as well as I do. As a matter of fact, she once expressed that her school was built on constant competitions and contests. I can't speak to the psychological health of such an atmosphere, but I'm certain she'd enjoy that battle, mock or otherwise. I'd wish you luck in this, though I doubt you'll need it. The children won't help but give their respect and look up to you.

[Yes, that was easy. Yes, it was unoriginal. But he just. Couldn't. Resist..]

I hope the other kids all make fun of you.

[Video]

[lazyjustice]

My self-esteem might just manage it. ... But thank you for your concern.

[trolling. maybe a little]

[Video]

[fierybluebird]

Kids are worse than pirates, yoi. Because they pretend to be innocent.

[Video]

[lazyjustice]

Some of them are... [and yet, forces work against them to change them into something perhaps they would never have been otherwise. He had had that thought with Nico Robin and it had only grown with Portgas' death]

Fortunately I have experience with both. [99% with pirates though]

[spoilsfun]

which class are you teaching? Are you qualified to teach?

video

[lazyjustice]

[checks the info again] Fourth grade... [so...twelve year olds? Thirteen? Some little squabbly age]

And perhaps ball room dancing... [just because.

As for if he's qualified?]

Yes... [how hard could it be]

Re: video

[spoilsfun]

Which school?

...I don't think ballroom dancing is part of the standard fourth grade curriculum.

[lazyjustice]

Attleton. And I don't see why not. It promotes cooperation, flexibility, and excellent blackmail material. [he might be joking about the last. But not very. And anyway a little embarrassment builds character]

[justicereigns]

[PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFT]

[AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA]

[PINEAPPLES]

[YOU FUCKING DORK.]

[He loves you and Maribelle.]

[You've both managed to rile up the Phoenix and he can't do shit about it.]

[A+]

[No response on if it's appropriate.]

[JUST LAUGHING.]

[video]

[lazyjustice]

...What?

[why are you laughing? He doesn't get it. It doesn't bode well]

[video]

[justicereigns]

[Points to the bowtie :3]

[video]

[lazyjustice]

[blinks.]

Is it the vest?

[tresbeau]

I do not intend to be rude monsieur, however that tie is simply horrible.

[ Okay he might mean to be a little rude but appearance is important, Jesus Christ! ]

video

[lazyjustice]

Mm you think so? [peers at it again] But it is for little children and they don't exactly have a sense of style...

[have you seen what kids wear]

video

[tresbeau]

I indeed think so! It is a crime against fashion and I can assure you that children care as much as adults can.

video

[lazyjustice]

Is that right? [scratches his cheek] Mah...well, disappointment builds character. Appearances aren't everything after all.

Or perhaps I'd rather be a rebel? [strokes his chin and smirks]

[om_nom_namur]

Jus' cuz yer teachin' don't mean y' gotta look like a nerd, dumbass. Some a us can teach an' look good doin' it.

[lazyjustice]

Maa... well... what would you suggest? [he is genuinely curious] I wasn't aware you taught.

[om_nom_namur]

I'unno. Whatever the hell y' wear when y' ain't tryin' t' fit yerself in a uniform, I guess.

[ohshitBUSTED!]

[No, it's cool. He's got this.]

Yeah, some people talked me int' it. Girls kept gettin' crushes on me an' makin' trouble though, so I had t' quit.

[He nods his head to the side. So modest. Like it's no big thing. Just how it goes when you're the most badass fishman around. Yeaaaaaah.]

[lazyjustice]

You wore a uniform? [he can't tell if the pirate is lying or not but it would be a strange thing to lie about]

I am sure you were the talk of the town. [in one way or another]
