Who: Nami and anyone
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Bloodsport
When: 16th April

[The broadcast doesn't switch on while Nami is still sleeping, but it does decide to catch the moment when she practically launches off the bed with a banshee screech and then tumbles to the floor blankets and all, a tangle of material and bare limbs flailing in a pathetic heap.]

Luffy, you ass-- I'm the only one who can--

[The only one who can inhale a blanket corner, apparently. 8| Please hold, spluttering. She eventually flips the blanket back to show a mess of orange hair, smoothing it dazedly behind one ear-- and then freezing as she swipes at thin air beneath that.]

Wha hap'-- where's my--

[....]

.....huh?

[Memory might be taking a bit.]

---------

[Some hours later she'll be back and fully coherent and annoyed.]

I go to sleep for two weeks and we're still in this crappy place? Tell me there's a bright side somewhere. And I guess I owe a bunch of shifts at the bar or something.

Aha. Tell me I still have a job.

[collegedropout]

You're totally fired.

[... Yeah he can't keep himself dead serious on that; he smiles a bit.]

Nice to see you actually — uh, I was gonna say up and around but... Flopping around?

video.

[namisan]

Hey, you wake up after your captain has just pulled you over a two thousand foot drop and see how graceful you are.

[But given she seems vaguely irritated by this and not, y'know, whimpering in a corner somewhere, it's probably okay??]

video.

[collegedropout]

... Yeah, that sounds about right. Your captain threw me into a long drop before, too, just FYI. If you recall. [HE FELL INTO YOUR WORLD AND IT WAS SCARY AS FUCK.] Sounds like Luffy. But you're doing okay...? Outside of, you know. Free-falling.

video. 1/2

[namisan]

Outside of, yeah. [Because lmao they're free-falling toward the ocean and she's the only one who can swim, oh god she's going to kill him. If he doesn't drown first.]

My world treats me better than yours. I'm surrounded by idiots, not demons. [So there.] Ah...let's see. Made a few more powerful enemies, got to meet an actual ninja don't see what the fuss is about-- and I actually got to remember sailing with you for a week.

[So there's that. And she got to see her crew, most of them for the first time in a-- year. But she didn't remember not being there for these last six months, so. She's trying to ignore that particular confused ache in her chest.]

video.

[namisan]

...oh. And Sanji-kun is getting married.

[Yup.]

video. one more here u go

MISS NAMI, YOU'RE AWAKE!!

[I'D CRY BUT I'M ALL OUT OF SALT RIGHT NOW OKAY.]

what I don't get a crying max that's totally IC right

[namisan]

[...oh well. Shit. Sorry, Koala.]

Ah-- yeah. Sorry for vanishing on you for a while! It wasn't exactly planned.

max cries b/c you aren't his car

[scrubscrub]

[She shakes her head.]

It's okay, it's okay! I was just -- I was really worried you weren't gonna wake up!

People keep going missing or falling asleep, and there's nothing I can do...!

every response I can think of is dirty af

[namisan]

[Wow, who are these rude people >:c]

They'll wake up again! If they're sleeping-- I'm sorry, Koala. I hope someone told you that. If I'd been awake-- [Well, I'd have told you that myself, but given I was sleeping I just kind of added to the problem. Hah. Hahah.]

Bad timing, I guess. But I'm awake now, and they'll wake up too. Who's missing?

[geonomy]

Good news: we're on a different surface now?

Bad news: it's completely polluted and toxic?

video;

[namisan]

Yeah. I was awake long enough to take a look outside and make faces at it. Was kind of hoping we'd move on quickly. No such luck, huh?

[Sup chart buddy how ya doin]

video;

[geonomy]

[sup chart buddy i'm ok]

Nah, not yet. We've all been making faces at it for a while. [In fact, he makes a disgruntled face now. It sucks having to put on a mask every time he wants to go outside.]

Still, I don't want to leave just yet. I've been trying to figure out how to fix it.

video;

[namisan]

[Well, that gets her attention in a whole 'nother way.]

If I had my climatact I could probably at least clear the air for a while, but it wouldn't fix the underlying problem. Did you have any thoughts at all?

[video]

[pompous_today]

Is there EVER a bright side?

[video]

[namisan]

One can always hope. Is there a point to being stuck on this disgusting moon?

[video]

[pompous_today]

Apparently there is a masquerade party coming up soon. Other than that... I have nothing.

[video]

[namisan]

Party, huh? [Yeah okay, that is interesting. But--] An actual masquerade, or do they all just get together and compare their favourite breathing masks?

[huaaaaagh]

[Eyyy, look who's back.]

I don't think there's a line-up out the door for the bartending job. Um, no offense to the place.

[He likes it well enough, for not being a regular, but the fleet is enough of a job as it is, in his opinion.

More seriously, though-]

You okay?

[namisan]

...yeah. [Sam more or less confirmed that her wakeup call was recorded, so she just sounds vaguely sheepish.] I, uh... kind of went home for a while, if you can call it that. Ended on a jump scare.

[A literal one. Her captain is an asshole.]

Hey, Kirito. How's things?

[huaaaaagh]

...I hate jump scares.

[One of the many reasons he doesn't play horror games. Ugh.]

Things are okay, I guess. The moon still sucks here.

[namisan]

I think I vastly preferred the station. That had casinos. [Grumble.] If I was going to sleep for so long, they could at least have obliged me by moving on to somewhere better.

Is there anything even worth seeing down there?

[theirinurpants]

Nami! Are you all right?

[ BOY IS HE GLAD TO SEE YOU. ]

video; (sorry for the delay!)

[namisan]

Define 'all right'... [It's a mutter, but after a moment she blinks and looks at him properly.]

...hey. Ah. Yeah, I'm fine. Just a little-- [She waves her hands around aimlessly, before slouching down to rest her chin on one.] --annoyed.

video;

[theirinurpants]

I'm sorry. Is there anything I can do to help? Maybe we could take your mind off it! Down on the moon there's a great game called paint ball!

video;

[namisan]

Down on the poisonous moon with the mutant bears? [She's amused by how quickly he went from I'm sorry to paint ball! but that won't stop her squinting at him over the feed.]

I've never heard of paint ball. I'm gonna assume there's paint and a ball involved.
