first harvest. video. saturday afternoon.

[ This seems like it's working now. Nojiko is already out of the New Feather dress, having managed to get directions to the Welcome Center, where she got a run-down of what was going on. That took most of the morning. The rest of the morning was spent finding her clothing, changing, and then sitting at a corner table in the bakery reading through the entirety of the new arrival guide.

She also had breakfast. A muffin. It was a blessedly normal muffin.

The breakfast was the only remotely normal part of the morning. Now that she feels educated (although...skeptical and still trying to hold all of this information in), it looks like it's time to attempt using the journal, as was suggested to her earlier. She's still at her little table in the bakery, the journal held open in front of her. ]


Hello. [ just getting that greeting out of the way, before plunging onward. ] So, I understand that this is a way of talking to people here. [ The guide explained that, and she's sort of been checking out the last two or three entries, just figuring out how it works. ] And I'm also given to understand that there are people here from many worlds?

I'm not asking for that explanation again. I'm just not sure how I'm meant to find anyone from my own world. [ ...Or if she wants to. It's not like being from her world automatically makes someone excellent company or someone she wants anything to do with. But. ] How do you know if you're from this world or that one? If there were a list of possibilities, I guess I might have a chance of picking home out.

So I suppose I'm really just asking to be found. [ Dry laughter. Well, she's taken care of everything else, so...of course, there might not be anyone else. That had been covered, too. ] If you know Cocoyasi Village or the Conomi Islands, I'd be grateful for a quick word. [ Presumably anyone familiar with geography from home would be from home, right?

A pause. Wow, she forgot something important, didn't she? ]
My name is Nojiko, by the way. Thanks. [ Okay she'll just end that there, then, and see what's what. ]

What? Oh, you mean one of the mad scientist ones so common in Luceti? Nope, can't say that I am actually. Although I did eat a devil fruit about 60 years ago or so. Ever since then, people have always pointed out that I look really thin. Yohohoho!

By the way, I was wondering if I might take a shot at asking you a question or two?

[ Yup, what is different worlds, Kotomi doesn't seem to fully realise it half of the time. But oh, yes, introductions, she can do this!! Except it ends up sounding almost way too mechanical again, as if she's practiced this way too many times. ]

My name is Kotomi Ichinose. I'm a senior from class A back home. My hobby is reading. When referring to me, please call me 'Kotomi-chan'.

Ah! Allow me to introduce myself dear lady! I am Brook, or the humming swordsman as the wanted posters say. I'm the musician of the straw hat pirates! I'm also known as Brook the babbling Brook, Soulking, Dead Bones Brook, that damned pervert skeleton, the king of spayne, and the artist formerly known as Soulking. A pleasure to meet you miss!

By the way, may I please see your panties? Yohohoho!

[ Kotomi just assumes this is how standard introductions work.. but that means this person is really good at it too, she's amazed!! ]

I'll call you Nojiko-chan then, that's what I'd call a friend. [ apparently she's decided they're friends already too. ]

I've read about mikan before though, but.. I've never seen them in person..

Yohohoho! I figured it was worth a shot.

[Since he's safely on the other end of a journal, where smacks can't reach him... yet.]

You know you actually do remind me a bit of someone... I wonder if you're both from the same part of the East Blue.

[Rapunzel may not have any idea what a cash register is, but! The important thing is that Nojiko can bake, so.]

Great! I'd be happy to have you. Come on - I'll grab you an apron! [She waves her towards the counter.]
tapdancinskelly: (You!)

Ah! That glare! It's exactly like Nami's after someone spills tea on her maps!

[Which of course, Brook has never done, and is totally not going to admit to ever doing.]

That's right! I'm their musician, Brook! So you do know Nami?

Really? You're her older sister? It's so nice to meet y-

[Wait... Nami's sister... he asked if he could see the panties of Nami's sister?]

Ah... do you think you can maybe not mention to Nami that I asked you any questions that may, or may not have involved panties? Otherwise Nami might kill me... although I'm already dead. Yohohoho!

They will.

Unfortunately, yes. Actually, that might be fortunately for you, given the rest of the pirates here.

[Hesitant again because well Bellemere was a marine and she was cool. Meh.] Not everyone is like Bellemere. These days, few are. [He's a lot more jaded about marines and corruption lately okay. Two years of G-5 will do that to a man.]

I think it's been here for years, but I've only come under managing it recently. About two weeks, actually. I worked here under the previous owner, but he went home.

[She holds an apron out for Nojiko. It's blue and yellow with cheery buttons and lace, sewn by Rapunzel's own hand.]

I'm not sure about those islands, but they sound familiar. What ocean are they in?

[Cocoyashi... Yes, she's heard of it. It's not her world, but she's heard of it from the one who grew up there. And hearing of such a place brings a bit of a bittersweet taste to Miyabi's mouth. The news of Nami going home is still young, and it's still a bit painful around the edges. Which may be why her tone is a bit dim when she speaks up.]

I've heard of Cocoyashi.

[ She'll totally come on a grove exploration by then, okay!! ]

Ah, can you find them there..? I didn't know there were trees in the grocery store.. [ she needs to stop taking things so literally too. ]

[He can't help but laugh.] They love doing things to the fullest, huh? What did they do in Cocoyashi?

[Hm, then it sounds like she really doesn't know about Marineford. He's pretty fine with this.] I'd heard Luffy beat up a shichibukai, and declared war on the World Government. I ah... don't know about anything after that, though. Your village sounds a little out of the way, if you don't mind me saying it.
