[Action]

[It's late at night, late enough when most people are asleep. Alexei is one of those people...or well, was. His journal had been placed aside, but it can still pick up sounds. Roughly it picks up someone violently waking up. Alexei found himself wandering into memories he didn't like to recall. They were quick flashes, but his moments before, during and after his death were continually bombarding him. Not exactly a very happy dream. So rather then roll over and just go back to bed, he's going stay awake for a while, maybe distract himself by looking through the journal.

It's been strangely quiet here in apartment 15 of CB1. It now lacked one occupant that used to reside in the room next to Alexei. It's a sickening remainder that staying here was still only temporary. Maybe that's why his own death was haunting him tonight. And now Casey was truly lost to history again. Not exactly a major loss when she had been dead for ten years to him. Reminiscing about the past seems to have become regular occurrence for him now. Being stuck in one place and not even having a job to keep oneself busy can lead a mind astray. Especially right now...when he has no other direction laid out for him but death the moment he leaves. He closes his journal. Listening to others has even lost it's charm.

He needed to find something else to get his thoughts together, find somewhere to go. Out of this apartment...or maybe even out of the village itself. Yes, just for a few days he'll get out of this stuffy village and explore the terrain outside. He hasn't quite done that yet, anything to keep him from sitting around right now. It just left him feeling anxious. Right, so that's the plan, prep for the trip and then leave when he's ready, most likely for the mountains and beyond that. There's only so much of the same forest one can deal with.

It's too late/early to gather supplies, but he puts together anything he would need that he already had. Wasn't much to pack really...and he wanted to get out of the apartment now. There is one place in this village he could go to for a while. He puts on his uniform...but bypasses on getting all of his armor on. He doesn't think he'll be there for very long and it's not worth it. His waist plate, and his sword will do just fine. Once he leaves, he's heading for the mikan orchard. It's been a long time since he was last there, around the time after the family experiment. He finds a spot under a tree and sits. Sure enough, the strange calming effect it had on him happened again, almost meditative.

He takes a deep breath and then pulls his journal out again. The thing he was pondering and about to ask, was more to himself then to anyone in particular.]

What did you strive for back home? Your goals and did you ever achieve them? Anything that you would bet your own life to see happen? ...Or is there something right now that you would give your life up for?

[Yes well. Squawking THE ENTIRE WAY THERE.

You're such a jerk, Alexei. Screw you. B|]

[Someone does hear all that damn noise. B| Srsly, the hell is that thing yapping about? Sanji opens the door mere seconds before Alexei knocks, the scowl reversing into something quizzical when he notes who is paying a visit.

And then he gets a good look at the magpie. Stuck in a cage. Where magpies usually belong because they are fuckin annoying creatures, but he remembers a certain cyborg mentioning a magpie he'd be interested i--]

[YEAH ALEXEI, GOD. LET NAMIPIE JOIN IN THE SCREECHING. HAAAAET.]

Now listen here, Alexei - that's no shitty way to treat a lady! Especially not Nami-san!

[Yes, the irate chef demands you undo all your hard work and release his feathered nakama immediately, so that she may peck you to death as punishment for your crimes, at her leisure.]

Who did you think it was? Nami-san's pet?

[Yeah, who actually thinks that besides Luffy?]

Oi, you-- [He's drowned out when the crate finds its way into his grip, soon treated to siren-like screeches... sorta. >>a Maybe he should let her out]

Nami-san, are you alright?! [Don't worry. ;; He's gonna open that crate right now.] You're not hurt, are you?

[Scuse her, Sanji-- apparently she needs to fly at that closing door in one last attempt to murder Alexei :| But he's too fast for her. NEXT TIME, JERK. >E

...so she'll flutter back to perch on Sanji's shoulder and stick her beak in the air instead. B|]

[... There is a Nami on his shoulder...

He's probably daydreamed about this at some point, but not quite in this context. 8|a Still, her clear disdain gets an amused grin when he turns to look at her]


I'm sorry, Nami-san! I hope you weren't waiting long.

[Nami gives him a cheerful chirp back and shifts her claws a little to get a better perch. You're familiar. 8Da]

[identity profile] oda-hates-me.livejournal.com 2011-08-18 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
[A chirp! *^* Chirping means you love him, right?]

Yeeeeees~! It's your ever present knight, come to your daring rescue! [Don't mind that wiggling. You can stay perched on, right?]

[Who cares about all your human babble just STAY STILL DX

Nope, wobble.gif

Nami flaps her wings with a faintly offended caw, practically slaps you in the face with one and flutters off. For the kitchen. B|]

[... It's not much different from what Nami would usually do. u_u Sanji'll take it as a yes.

That said, the creeping feeling that she doesn't understand him is becoming more blatant. He should probably pursue and make sure she doesn't hurt herself in there.]


Maaah... how the hell do I keep you in here, then? [And what do birds eat for that matter. >>]

[identity profile] mikangirl.livejournal.com 2011-08-19 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
[The lucky thing is that magpies tend to eat anything! \o/ This one has landed on one of your benches like she owns the place. Let's see what's here.]

[identity profile] oda-hates-me.livejournal.com 2011-08-20 04:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[;; But Sanji is used to cooking magpies. This is a Problem.]

... I guess we'll find out, won't we? [Rollin' back the sleeves and walking to the fridge] Let's see... nuts? Maybe ham? [Magpies totally like ham, right? >_> In any case he's pulling out some leftovers]

Nami-san~!! My lovely, feathered angel, I have your meal~!

[identity profile] mikangirl.livejournal.com 2011-08-22 05:09 am (UTC)(link)
[HAMMM *A* ... well okay, she'd have that reaction to most things, but. Fluttering on over to the plate. It's ready now, right? 8D?]

/crawls back from school

[identity profile] oda-hates-me.livejournal.com 2011-08-27 06:04 am (UTC)(link)
[Totally ready. YOUR DINNER AWAITS, SO DIG RIGHT IN.

Sanji's sure your manners will be as pristine as always... yes. Totally.]
