captain's log 002

[nishishi]

My birthday's coming up in three months, I actually remembered, this time.

[Honestly, people should be proud of him for remembering something that isn't food, adventure, or fighting-related.]

But not only do I not have a ship STILL, but my crew is still tiny. [It's just him and Zoro--that's so lonely.]

So what kind'a parties do people have in this weird place? I want a big one. And a fun one.

[nishishi]

Heee-eey, that's not your fault! I mean, I couldn't find one either!

Jeez, finding ships back home was way easier than this...

Maybe we could just build one ourselves.
I helped my brothers make a treehouse when I was a kid, after all. How hard could a ship be??

[monge]

[That is...the greatest idea he's ever heard.]

Monge... [Sitting back up, Komasan's paws squish against his cheeks in delight.] And ships are like houses anyway, just on water, zura!

[So if Luffy has the experience, then this should be no problem!]

I never made anything outta wood before, b-but I'm willing to try, zura!

[nishishi]

So long as we find a good hammer and some nails, we're going to be ALRIGHT!

[He raises up an arm, curling his fingers into a fist.]

Zoro can cut the wood with his swords, so we got that all figured out...

Oh, we'll just need to draw a new picture for the flag, too...

[monge]

Oh... I'm not very good at drawing, zura...

[And he doesn't want to ruin the flag, either.]

Eh...I might just leave that one to you, zura.

[nishishi]

That's okay! I'm a great artist!

I can draw the flag, no problem!

[No.]

All you gotta' do is help me and Zoro with building it. I bet you'd be a great help!

[monge]

[O-Oh!!]

I'll...I'll do it, zura!!

[ARM PUMP.]

I'll be the greatest help ever, y-you can count on me, zura!!

[Especially if he's betting, the last thing Komasan wants is for him to lose a bet.]

We just need to find a place that sells lots and lots of wood... Like...like the hardware store, zura!

[santouryuu]

That's not a bad idea, actually. The wood'd be easy enough to get, at least...

[Do either of them know how to build a ship tho.......]

[nishishi]

You could just chop the wood with your sword, right? Way better and faster than any silly saw!

[santouryuu]

Yeah, I can definitely do the wood-chopping. There's gotta be a damn forest around here somewhere. We'll still need materials for the sail, and if we wanted anything like cannons....

[P.ause.]

But I guess we wouldn't need a kitchen without the shitty cook around, so that's one less thing to worry about.

[So basically y'all are gonna make the sailboat from before the Going Merry happened, huh]

[nishishi]

Cannons can come later! There's no marines or other pirate ships around, right? So we'll probably be okay!

[Because that's how his logic is currently working. Don't need to defend yourselves when there's nothing to defend yourselves against, right?]

We can find food other places, like we have been! [Coby, why did you leave, you were such a good cook...]

But we're still gonna' need a special seat up in the front. [Priorities.]
