Ah, I seem to have found my way back to these seas again. I wonder what they call this place, anyhow? Is it also Vearth? Surely the natives do not wish to associate their entire world with Davy Jones. Perhaps we ought to come up with our own way of referring to it. How about... [Robin pauses to consider a bit.] Void World. [Feel free to groan, Robin's not so great at the naming thing.]

In any case, there was... a race, wasn't there? If someone wouldn't mind telling me how much time has passed since the end of that race, I'd appreciate it.

I have wondered if they have a name for this planet, or at least the patch of ocean we've been sailing. This can't be all of it. [He'd ask Dog but with their relationship she'd call him an imbecile for not having asked sooner.]

it's been about five weeks since the end of the race.

Five weeks-

[She cuts herself off rather quickly, unable to take back her sudden exclamation of incredulity.]

That seems... impossibly disproportionate. Dare I ask what I may have missed in that time?

Robin!

[oh god you have no idea how happy he is to hear your voice]

Where are you? Take the Nav back to the ship if you can.

The... ah, yes. There was a shop that had one around here somewhere, no?

[Things are still a little fuzzy. It's weird suddenly having an extra year of life crammed in between the space of a blink of an eye.]

Is there anything I ought to pick up while I'm there?

Nah, not that I know of. You'd have to ask the cook, though.

Find the Brig and get back to us, we're on Deesuko Ballia at the moment. And might be here for a while, thanks to the idiot pervert cook crashing the ship into a reef.

That seems unlike him. He wouldn't have been distracted by someone, would he?

[Oh yeah, she remembers that now. And the fact that both Zoro and Sanji are overly defensive about it.]</small.

Not a lot. Just another curse.[He's been trying to to think about what happened.] Corpse King got his hands on journal because of said curse. [He will not feel bad for Hawtrey if Dog ever catches up the hi.m]
There's rumors of some sort of bounty hunting system being drawn up by the Navy. I think the Spades went after some slavers, not sure how that went.

Never a dull moment in the Void World, hm?

[She giggles.]

I wonder if he'll feel as compelled to make entries as we are...

[doesn't catch the implication yet]

'Course he was distracted, he swore there were mermaids on the reef who needed his help, like a damn moron.

[Ah well. He'll catch on some other time. Maybe.]

I would think mermaids would be quite capable of taking care of themselves where reefs are concerned. Who is taking care of the repairs?

Dunno. Probably some local. Our patch job was barely good enough to get us limping to this island to meet Luffy.

I'll look into it when I get there, I suppose. We wouldn't want some nameless local doing a half-baked job on our precious ship, would we? How did Luffy end up on a different island?

He went with the Spades to do a thing. He and Keimi and a couple of the others.

[yet, not him or Sanji, given the tale of the Merrily and her poor holey hull]

[She feels like there's something important she should be remembering about the Spades. All she can figure at the moment is that they're the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates, and that's enough to mark them as "not to be trifled with" in her book.]

It must have been nice to have some time alone.

[Can't stop, won't stop.]

[okay that time. Cue the 'hurk!' of a strangled intake of breath]

It's not like that!

[even though it was nice, yes]

[Robin giggles.]

Of course, of course.

I'll be there in a moment.

[And sure enough, a few seconds later, the Nav's ring lights up, and Robin steps out of the blinding flash. She blinks, as if she'd half expected to see Sunny's masthead rather than the Million Merrily's. Right. Not home, not exactly. But close enough, under the circumstances. She sends out a network of fleur and finds Zoro quickly.]

Any new crew I ought to know about?

[he's onboard the ship, at least, he won't go too far from it until it's been repaired. One arm resting on his swords, he has a big relieved grin for Robin.]

Welcome back. Crew? Nah. We're down a few, actually...Akira's gone.

[Robin resists the urge to repeat Akira's name. She has a feeling she'd be doing it incessantly until she remembers everything from the last time she was here.]

The wolf boy, right? Pity. He had such a luxurious coat.

[And she regards Zoro's expression more closely for a moment.]

You seem quite happy about something.

Me? [can't fathom what.] Just glad to see you. Nothin' big.

[Admittedly, Robin was kind of fishing for that. But she smiles to hear it anyway. She'll never hear it enough.]

Someone said it'd been more than a month. I think... I only lived another couple of hours, in all that time.

Yeah, a month and some change. You and Luffy both disappeared, then he came back first.

...Nami's gone, too. [and he's a little droopy at having to say so]

He's caught up to us. Maybe you and he are from the same moment, then.

[It takes her a moment to realize what Zoro means by "he's caught up to us", but then she breathes a sigh of relief.]

That's good to hear, actually. We need his strength. All of it.

Yeah. I didn't even realize how much I'd gotten used to it, until he was back where he used to be. But even that, I got used to.

You didn't miss much in the meantime. We spent most of the last month on a peaceful kind of island.

Why void? If anything its a water world. [ That was rare, in and of it self. Even terraformed there were plenty of planets with out oceans in the Sea of Stars. The only other world with vast oceans he could think of off hand had died long before he'd been born]

I really don't get how he could have taken one with him it was peoples minds trading.... [He trails off. Not sure what's worse thinking about being a pink pony or Hawtrey in Dog's body]

Void World sounds better.

[Shhh, she hangs out with Luffy, okay?]

People can be surprisingly persistent, when there's something they want. Remind me a bit more about the Corpse King, if you don't mind. It's only been a few hours but... it was like I had no memory of this place at all, and suddenly there's nearly a year that doesn't... fit right.
