Voice // Ready or not || Action for anyone on the Spades Ships, Marco's in the crow's nest

[fierybluebird]

How many people want to go back to their own worlds? Especially during things like this.

My world often had storms in the New World like this, so I can't say this makes me homesick.

Then again, anyone who knows me well knows I don't intend to ever go back.

I hate when people tell me this isn't my world. I mentioned that at the start of this summer too, and that my world has no use for monsters like us, so why not go where I please? Maybe that's a side effect of being a bird. I'll go wherever I want. But then whose world is it if not mine? People born here? Who decides that? Clearly Davy Jones thinks otherwise, whether we're puppets and pawns or not.

Everything is too familiar lately. I hate it.

Really? Hmmm...

[He'd read Ikki's books already so a new book is a pretty interesting idea. Roxas hasn't considered buying new ones which is probably a good thing since he has a lot less space on his new ship.]

[fierybluebird]

My other two favorites are the Princess' Marriage, which is a joke book on romances, but you'd have to have read other romance novels to get it. And my Pops' favorite, Moby Dick. Moby Dick is about a great white whale whose brothers were being hunted for food so he went to get revenge. The bad guy, Captain Ahab, is totally crazy and he lost a leg in one fight to Moby Dick so he decided to go hunting him to finish it once and for all.

My Pops' fleet was named after the whale. So he's like a brother to me as well.

[heartismyown]

I never read any romance novels, I don't think. Can I read the book about the whale?

[Sounds pretty cool if there's a fighting whale in it.]

[fierybluebird]

I would, but I lent it to Robin the day before the race.

I should have given her the Princess' Marriage.

[Rubs the back of his neck.] When I find her again, or if she's not back in a month, I'll ask her crew to look for it.

[heartismyown]

Okay, well you don't have to hurry. I have the treasure book to read too.

[He'll probably forget about it by the time a month rolls around.]

[fierybluebird]

[No worries, Marco will remind him.]

Aye, read that one first, and when you finish I'll get you another.

[heartismyown]

Yeah, okay!

[It will give him something to do every time Lea insists he needs to calm down and relax a little bit.]

Hey, how come you didn't turn into another person? How did you do it?

[fierybluebird]

Don't know. If it has an intelligent origin, perhaps they were aware that any regular person I switched with would be in great danger. And they didn't want, or couldn't switch me with my brothers.

If it was a natural phenomenon, then perhaps my own phoenix instincts kept out any intrusion. Truth told, I felt a little left out.

But Ikki didn't switch either.

[heartismyown]

Why would they be in danger?

[He scratches his head a little.]

Well it's really really weird, that's all I can tell you. Everything is really weird. I can't do the things I normally can and I'm really tall like this which makes moving strange too. I don't really like it.

[fierybluebird]

Because depending on the person they might try to fly, or I might try to give them piercings and tattoos, or anything else I felt like.

I'm not a nice guy, yoi.

[heartismyown]

Would you really do that? Why?

[All Roxas has really thought about this body is trying to wonder how to go about getting out of it.]

You don't think this person is doing something weird to me, do you?

[fierybluebird]

No, I don't think they are.

And I'd only do it depending on the person, eh. I'm not even swapped with Logan, but I'm still going to leave sparkles on him, to freak him out. It'll be fun.

[heartismyown]

Why would that freak him out? You leave sparkles a lot sometimes.

[Logan is clearly weird.]

Hmmm...I hope Selphie's not doing anything weird to me either when I'm not there.

[She did seem pretty mad.]

[fierybluebird]

Selphie wouldn't be as mad at you as Lea.

And because, I'm going to use his own imagination as a weapon against him. In a friendly way.

[heartismyown]

I guess not. I don't really know.

[He's still puzzled over the whole encounter.]

What can he possibly imagine happened with sparkles? Did you shake yourself off in his room or something?

[That's the best idea he can come up with for finding sparkles on him if he didn't know.]

[fierybluebird]

Something like that. And his beard.

[It's not your fault Roxas, Marco is just crazy.]
