Hello! [video/action in Genessia City]

[yourotherleft]

[the face which peers imperiously down at the video screen may be lacking an eye, but he handles the phone like a pro. The technology doesn't baffle him, but the location does.]

I knew they were lying to us. Bastards. But they missed, this isn't home either. Oi. [you in the phone, yeah you] So they want us to hang around here and get comfy until they can figure out how to really send us home? Great. [/sarcasm]

One thing I know from places like this, is there's bound to be people around who've heard of the Straw Hat Pirates. Yeah? Whoever's around, me and the cook are here.

[at which point the cook in question shoves his way into view, jostling Zoro's shoulder]

The hell kind of an introduction is that?

What? Anyone who knows us knows who I'm talking about, and anyone who doesn't, I don't care about. Where's the problem?

Don't lump me in with your not caring bullshit, if we're in a new place then we gotta have a shitty proper introduction. Otherwise none of the ladies here will know who I am!

[Zoro just deadpans at him, it's very likely that as soon as he hangs up, they're going to be fighting in public. Never mind that he also didn't bother giving his name...either name, really...]

[action]

[they haven't gone too far from the caves in the center of Genessia City, but Zoro being Zoro, there is a strong likelihood that at any given moment he has wandered off in the wrong direction and lost Sanji. So you might stumble on one or the other but not both. The green wonder is more intent on finding a bar than finding his way to the apartments, leaving him going around and around the same block about twenty times. Sanji is most likely checking out the restaurants and food shopping opportunities, aggressively inquiring into the freshness of the seafood and swanning at women.]

[ooc note: green is Zoro, blue is Sanji]

[ These two look so weird... But, there is something that does stand out to her. ]

Strawhat Pirates... Are you, by any chance, speaking of Luffy?

[Video]

[yourotherleft]

Yeah. [and he perks right the hell up] You know Luffy? Is he here?

[please don't tell him that Luffy was here and isn't...]

[Video]

[enchantressofore]

He is, I spoke with him yesterday actually. I believe he has taken up residence in Fayren for now, though I do not know exactly where for certain.

I take it you are a member of his crew then?

[Voice]

[justicereigns]

Morons.

[He means "hello," in "Fuck you-grumpy-tsundere-marine-I-don't-talk-to-pirates" speak.]

[Voice]

[yourotherleft]

[wow, that's a voice he wasn't expecting]

Smoker?

[Voice]

[justicereigns]

No, it's a god damn figment of your diseased imagination and binge alcoholism.

[If that doesn't confirm it... nothing will.]

[Video]

[youfool]

I agree with "The cook"--surely that's not his name, is it?--not caring is a pretty sure way of finding yourself exiled to God-knows-where. By all means, continue your introduction properly.

[Video]

[yourotherleft]

....huh?

Re: [Video]

[youfool]

You know, an introduction! Where you tell your names and what they mean and what world or worldly purpose you've had to forsake, and so on.

video;

[bloodheels]

I think this is considered a proper introduction considering you end up in another place suddenly and without warning.

[People just have finding people, on top of there list, so she thought this would at least make sense.]

video;

[yourotherleft]

Oh, well there's that, but this ain't the first time so. [he's not sure whether admitting that is wise but too late, it's out there]

Action

[orangeoutlaw]

[sweet! More of Luffy's nakama! Ace files the other world stuff away for later and goes off to find them. He can speak to them over the video but where is the fun in that?

Will he find Zoro first? Sanji? Both of them together? Who knows! But either way he's excited.]

[yourotherleft]

[lbr it's Zoro, because his every quest "south" toward Fayren has ended in him nowhere near south.

But when Smoker said "idiot brother" he kind of already assumed Sabo, since that was who he last remembered seeing on Dressrosa. So, when he catches a glimpse of that familiar orange hat down the street, it doesn't immediately register that he might actually be looking at Ace.]

video;

[om_nom_namur]

WELLLLL if it ain't the Pleco-bait! Sounds like this ain't yer maiden voyage, neither. Where y' comin' at us from?

video;

[yourotherleft]

Oi, Namur! [hey, look at that, someone he knows! And the recognition is half the answer right there] We were still in the alien colony, do you remember that?

video;

[unhappy]

That's still true. None of us know who you are. Good job.

video;

[yourotherleft]

[WHOOPS]

Eh, that's not important. I'm just looking for the rest of our crew, right now.

video;

[hasklutz]

[ He has no idea who these two are, exactly, but he's got enough familiarity with what they're asking to keep from passing the post up. Corazon is a man of particular interests, and one or two of those is struck.

So this is part of the crew that helped take down Doffy? ]

I've heard a little about the Straw Hat Pirates. I don't know if you'll find the notoriety you're used to here, though.

video;

[yourotherleft]

[why look, it's a face he vaguely recognizes! Though it's been months, so Zoro squints at the phone first before tipping his head in a manly nod]

...oh, hey. You're that guy. Friend of Law's, right?

Psh, notoriety. I'll settle for not having my head messed with every other week and the faces of my friends.

[video]

[lazyjustice]

And so there were three...

Planning a hostile takeover?

[he doesn't seem at all alarmed if he really thinks this, and is in fact lounging on a recliner in a bathrobe. There is the sound of bathwater running in the distance and a white rubber duck peeking out from the bottom corner of the magazine he's reading called: Elementary Times]

[video]

[yourotherleft]

[just. what. Aokiji what.

You know, by now Zoro ought to know that there's just something not right with most Marines but eh. He can't help but stare for a second at the guy who once froze his arm. God, that was so long ago now...]

Yeah, uh huh, we've all been secretly studying the mysteries of time travel in order to all meet up in a world without the One Piece. You caught us. Bravo.

[Video]Hi, sorry I'm way too late for this!!

[wheres_the_meat]

[So the first thing Zoro and Sanji would see? A spray of meat hitting the camera as a familiar, energetic voice starts speaking with his mouth full.

He eventually finishes the food to resume speaking.]

Oy! Zoro, Sanji! When'd you two get here?!

[Video] CAAAPTAAAAAAIIIIINNNNNN

[yourotherleft]

[Luffy do you have any idea how lost he is right now? So lost. But he's met a lot of interesting people around the city so it's not all bad, maybe.]

Luffy! Earlier today, both of us woke up in those weird things in the caves. How long have you been in this dumb place anyway?

[video]

[serving_love]

[It's probably been several hours now since Sanji glanced down at his phone for two seconds and looked back up again only to find nothing but empty air where Zoro had previously been standing. Probably the idiot decided to turn down a random side alley or something... Wherever he went, Sanji wasn't too concerned. Gave him time to do some exploring on his own and learn more about whatever the fuck world they landed themselves in this time.

Still, as the evening hours start creeping closer and the shadows on the streets grow longer, he figures he'd better check in with the other man. So he pulls his phone out again and quickly figures out how to pull Zoro's name up.]

Oi, marimo. Where the fuck did you wander off to?


(ooc: because it's been weeks oops >.> and I gotta start somewhere so throwing myself in!!!)

[video]

[yourotherleft]

[given his adventures with first Ace and then Luffy...]

Just found the gate to a city called Fayren. 'S where the sea is. I dunno where Luffy went, he was here one second and then, well, you know Luffy.

[and then for just a moment that softie-side of Zoro peeks through]

...the sea, cook. Come on!

(ooc: COME TO ME also feel free to threadjack with anyone above)]
