[Voice/Action for peeps on the Million Merry]

[alwaysgrumpy]

Really? Really? We're all just gonna' jump right into the abyss, huh? Why not? I hope everyone gets as spun up as possible and this turns into an even bigger fiasco. Let's go all out. Why not sink a few Navy vessels while you're at it? Make some more fireworks, so they know where to find you.

Let's face it, life here isn't complicated enough, yet. What we need is more random acts of destruction. I'm quite sure that'll make everyone's lives so much better, and won't bite people in the ass in any way.

[Akira actually has to take a minute to suppress his temper, centering himself as best he can.]

Maybe I'm over-reacting. Who knows, could be stress. Perhaps the air on these islands is just too thin. Still, I've never been more glad to not be on the ocean, than right now. Damn it, I'm so frazzled by all this, I think I'm shedding...

Oh! Luffy, if you're hearin' this, we'll have a guest for a little while. I'll take responsibility for her, so you guys have fun with whatever.

Well, at least I did all my shopping and took what I wanted before she decided to burn the place.

[alwaysgrumpy]

*Akira finishes up his own place and moves to put it away.*

Did you want any more?

[myfayevalentine]

More clothes or more meat?

*She smirks at her lame little joke, and shakes her head*

No, thanks. That's perfect. Still stands that I think you'd make a good wife.

[alwaysgrumpy]

Hey, hey. The term is "house husband", you know.

[He actually gives a little grin at his own joke, before putting the dishes away.]

Well, you wanna' chill with us for a few days?

[myfayevalentine]

*She chuckles and finishes off her iced tea*

Okay. But only if you'll be my house husband.

[alwaysgrumpy]

Well, okay. I guess I'll be the better man and let you have my bed, while I roll up on the floor.

[myfayevalentine]

You mean you don't want to sleep with your beautiful wife?

*She grinned and gave a dramatic sigh*

Looks like our marriage is in trouble already.

Besides, don't you have a doggy bed?

[alwaysgrumpy]

Sorry. Couldn't fit it in my cabin.

[myfayevalentine]

Is that so? Hmm... So long as you're not the type to jump into bed and start licking me we should be okay.

[alwaysgrumpy]

I'll be happy to inform you that all carnally-related statements about werewolves are completely erroneous. No matter what fiction tells you.

*At that Faye burst into laughter. She tapped her hand on the table and took a deep breath before giving Akira a serious look*

Actually, I was running with the cute little puppy dog image. But that's...interesting extra information, so thanks for that.

[alwaysgrumpy]

Anyway, I'll clean up here. I suggest you familiarize yourself with the ship and where everyone stays. My room is probably the most sparsely decorated, so it'll be easy to find.

[myfayevalentine]

Right.

*Still smirking to herself, Faye got up from the table and tucked her chair in*

Aye, aye, captain. I'll find your room and just go make myself at home, shall I?

[alwaysgrumpy]

Yup, that'll be fine.

*He's already hard at work. Sanji will murder him if that kitchen isn't left as it was before.*

[myfayevalentine]

*She lifted her hand in a wave as she turned and walked out of the kitchen*

I'll see you in bed, Akira!

*Faye shouted it deliberately loud enough for anyone nearby to hear, grinning to herself as she headed off*
