I HAVE A FRIEND! AN ACTUAL FRIEND!

[Denzel celebrates with a lot of maniacal laughter but hey he's happy. Even if he sounds batshit insane he's overjoyed.]

[Locked to Asami]

Speaking of which, your advice on how to cure nightmares did help... That and a hot bath.

[Maribelle is so very, very tempted to comment rather harshly but... unfortunately she can actually relate. Until Lissa had become her friend, she didn't have anyone she could rightfully call her friend.]

I'm... happy for you, truly I am, but don't you think that bragging about it is a little... sad?

[His voice starts off grateful before quickly changing to anger.]

Why thank - OH SHUT UP!

[He knows the answer to that question which the answer is yes.]

[Sorry Denzel, she doesn't mean to laugh, but the sudden change of attitude was rather amusing.]

Hehe, well at least you do seem to know this, which is half the battle. Many people in this cesspool of intellect seem to not even realize how certain words or actions can effect their social standing. So now that we have that unpleasantness out of the way, might I ask who you've befriended?

[She wants to make sure they're at least sane... not that it's to make up for his potential lack of sanity or anything... not that it isn't either.]

[Denzel is quiet. Bitterly quiet because that remark made him recall his actions that caused him to lose the woman he loves still back home and at the time he hadn't realized that certain words or actions can effect your social standing and afterwards he just didn't give a crap but now that this person mentions that.]

Well, that explains why Codi was telling me those things.

Huh? Oh! Her name is Codi.

Ah yes, I remember the young woman. It's almost ironic that she would be teaching you such things since it almost seems she herself doesn't follow her own teachings. What with antagonizing Scurvy Dog and practically declaring war on the bloody roses, one of the most mentally unstable crews on the seas. For better or for worse though, it's nice to hear that you at least have someone you can consider to be a friend.

[Oh god... poor Denzel ;; Codi had to drop!]

I suppose?

She may like to horse around but she knows more than I do about friendship.

[There's that and willing to tolerate his insanity.]

YES! And we're just fine with being mentally unstable!

[Before laughing rather manically.]

O-Oh? You're one of the members are you?

[Must resist urge to back away from the journal in case it blows up.]

It seems almost surprising then that you'd be friends... considering her relationship with your captain.

...One of the members of who now?

What kind of question is this?! I'm with the Magnificent Bastards.

[Crocker had been referring to Codi and how she enjoys pranks and even to some degree Codi is either crazy or able to handle crazy.]

Hehaha! Oh I'm terribly sorry! It seems we ran into a little miscommunication! I had been saying the Bloody Roses were one of the must mentally unstable crews! So naturally when you said you were fine with being mentally unstable I thought you were a member of the Bloody Roses.

STOP LAUGHING AT ME!

Mmmm? Apparently so. I see. FAIRIES!

Suppose I'm just use to being called crazy and YES! I am fine with that!

No dear, I was laughing at myself.

[Although yes... she can definitely tell Crocker's off his Rocker.]

Fairies?

Why would you laugh at yourself?

[But this is coming from the guy who doesn't like to be a joke.]

WHERE?! WHERE?!

It shows a far superior level of social status to laugh at your mistakes rather than to cry or scream about them.

[True facts, and she found it genuinely amusing. However she suspected the reason she mentioned might actually help Crocker understand much better than trying to explain humor to him.]

... You said fairies. I was curious as to why, and what possible reason they would come up in our conversation.

Just call me middle class. [Bitter bitter.]

... I did??! Mmmm, can't say there was any reason.

Well that's certainly one thing someone might call you...

[Batshit crazy being another.]

Or crazy. WHICH I AM!

[There's the cra-cra laughing.]

That's really not something you should be proud of.

Why not?

After all I'm not bothered by my insanity! I enjoy every moment of it!

Because it's what makes people laugh and scorn you! It makes you a social outcast and pariah! Every waking moment people will wonder whether what little sanity you have left will snap and you'll go berserk and destroy everything and everyone around you! Can't you see how bad all that is?!

[Harsh Maribelle... also if he's insane, no he probably can't see.]

Makes people laugh and scorn at me? They do that already to me because of those fairies!!!

[There's a crash for a moment and a sudden, 'Ow']

Not really. Am I suppose too?
