Lost in the New World (closed)
who: Zoro and Sync
what: Zoro's job as recruit-tester for Jolly Eddy's means some poor sap has to try to get him from point A to point B. Today's poor sap is Sync.
when: Jan 2 eh
where: Everglade
warnings: nah
[Hiring officer sounds all official and snooty, but Zoro believes that his job assisting Namur is to test out any new escort recruits sent his way. He was never told what "testing" meant, but that was just fine, because Zoro tended to make shit up as he went along anyway. What it meant to Namur? Zoro's complete lack of direction meant someone had to successfully guide him from one end of Everglade to the other without losing him or getting in trouble.
This morning, all Zoro is given is a place to show up at and the name of the person he's testing today: Sync. How bad is his navigation? He's late. Seriously, a street corner one block in from the Everglade gate shouldn't be hard to find and yet here we are. Zoro arrives eventually, though, armed with his three swords and looking at his phone to determine whether he knew what Sync looked like or how he would recognize his recruit.]
Oh, wait. I think this is the place. Huh. He could've said it was right here.
[Feel bad for Sync, everyone, he has the world's worst toddler to babysit today. Namur has at least given him the real mission, to direct Zoro from that street corner to a market stall in the center of Everglade as quickly and efficiently as possible. They may or may not come into any trouble, but if they do, Zoro will enjoy seeing how this guy fights.]

...what the hell, where'd you go? Can't go wandering off like that.
[THE IRONY. He turns to look straight at the building they're behind]
Did we go past the market?
no subject
[He figures there will be another interruption somehow.]
So, how about we team up for a bounty some time? You mention lacking a challenge, and some of these have been fun.
no subject
Maybe. I haven't seen anything too hard for me to handle yet. [also, really bad at sharing money. At least his maybes are genuine, he's not saying no.] I'll keep it in mind.
no subject
Sure. [He isn't being doubtful, he is just agreeing with Zoro's words. Turning them around, he starts back the way they came.]
