[voice] Quit Being Mean

*Selphie's complaining, like most things she says, hasn't been thought about before broadcasting. Really, she's giving an immediate reaction to everything she's heard or read on her journal lately*

Geez, what is with these stupid islands? If it's not angry navy guys, then it's gross monsters and zombies and stuff! Seriously, is everyone around here so mean? Would it kill for people to be a little nicer for once? Making friends isn't that hard...

Anyone found a place to go yet where they felt actually wanted? I wouldn't mind a coupla days on land just to hang out. That is no way too much to ask!

Yeah but you're a pirate right? So the navy is always gonna be angry with you. [maybe not if her captain was a shichibukai but since Ace would never do something like that...]

You should find an island where you can have a really cool adventure. [because that's clearly the answer to any kind of problem. Go do something exciting]

Well...yeah, but it's not like I was bothering anybody, ya know? I only wanna make friends! *Because before she wound up here, she'd really had more than her fair share of fighting and war*

I'd love to find an island for a really cool adventure! But - it's not always so cool when the creatures or the people there really want you out.

[Oh, look, it's her best friend...]

You're asking for a world, that probably snatched you from your own, to be kind?

You're joking, right?

That pattern seems to be that if you want to find a place to just hang out its best if the place is unoccupied.

Of course, we were dragged into this world and given a challenge, I don't think the place has any plans to cooperate with us.

[ELSEWHERE ON THE SHIP, so he speaks into the journal.]

Maybe we'll get lucky the next place we end up.

haha Ace always bothers people. You'll probably be fighting a lot. [but it'll be fun because Ace usually bothers people that are jerks]</small? Sometimes they start out wanting you out but change their minds. Anyway, you can still have fun before they do.

Fighting is so bad a thing...

*It would be weird, for her, after all, to not be doing any fighting at all*

But it would be nice to have someplace to just chill out sometimes. Fighting fun and normal fun. I like a bit of both!

*Oh great... Fine, whatever, Selphie's just going to go along with it. This person was just way too annoying*

Yup! You got me! Just doing a bit joke right there...

*Though there's something terse about that voice*

Guess that's what I need then! A totally deserted island with only friends, and friends only!

But yeah, you're right. They gave that impression pretty quickly, huh?

That'd be nice!~

You really need to relax. The world is vast, and rushing will only lead you falling off the edge of it.

Rii-iight...

Okay. I'll keep that in mind. Any recommendations? Tips for relaxation?

*Actually, soon as she said it, she's not sure that she wants any help on relaxing from this creepy mean person*

Try a book, or rum? Maybe ask a cute boy for a massage~! That is, if your crew has any.

[These are the best ideas while at sea!]

Well... We don't seem to have any books on board. I dunno about rum though - I think maybe we gotta restock on that and -

*Whoa, Selphie splutters for second*

Wha-what? A massage? I can't ask someone on my crew for a massage!

*Then she keeps her voice down to a whisper, in case any of them can hear her*

That'd just be...weird...

Tsk tsk! You'll have to do something about all

Hmm? [She's suddenly whispering! Could it be...] Ohoho~! Has someone caught your eye~?

Wha?! No, nobody has!

*Sure, some of the guys on board were kind of cute, but she was so far from wanting a massage from any of them*

But it wouldn't be very nice if they could hear me talking about them!

You're not bad mouthing them, so it should be fine!

[A pause]

Unless they aren't all that cute?

But I have a feeling with this crew things will be...interesting...regardless of where we go.

Huh? Well...they're...fine. I guess?

*And they were - it didn't help that half were too old, and half too young anyway*

Yeah. They're fine.

Then I don't see what's wrong with asking! Just say your shoulders are KILLING you!

Mmm.. Sure seems like it!

I'm just... Really not close enough to any of them...

[There's a short knock on Selphie's cabin door. The Doctor's heard the broadcast and frankly, he's somewhat worried about the young lady.]

Selphie?

I like to do that kind of thing on the ship. [But maybe she doesn't. Or maybe she's not comfortable there]

Anyway good luck finding some place like that.

*Selphie looks up suddenly from her space on the floor*

Uh, hello? The door's open!

*She's pretty sure it's the Doctor, anyway, judging from the voice. Selphie's sitting over in the corner withher back against the wall, flicking through her journal*
