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. ]

[ Don't worry, Kotomi is always easily impressed. Always. ]

Hmm. I'll ask Fuuko-chan about it, but usually I should have time.. most of the time I'm just reading in the library.

I have. I met everyone but Robin, Franky, and Brook in Alabasta. I've met the rest here. [Sadly, he's never seen Usopp here, and Franky was only here for a short time.]

[Immediately, Perona tenses, and her lips purse into a thin line. Though her hands were in her lap and out of sight, they're now gripping one of the ruffly layers of her gown, knuckles white with the force of her grip. Fuck, she can't go a few damn days without someone bring them up, can she? Maybe it would have been better to stay in her own goddamn apartment.

After a long, painful, thick silence, she mumbles softly through her teeth--]


I know them.

Aye, price of sailing, eh?

[Laughs.] No problem. Might as well keep it with the crew.

[Her voice turns affectionate.] His name was Arthur. He was my best friend, but he went home a long time ago.

You too, Nojiko-san. Nami-san's told me a bit about you. [Vivi smiles, but then looks somewhat apologetic.]

Ah, no; I don't have a bounty myself. I'm perhaps more of an honorary crew member back home.

[Rapunzel stops with concern at that.]

Really? You didn't even get to see her?

Yes, for nearly...three years now.

[Wow. It's really been that long? She's been in Luceti for three years. Three. And she's seen people come and go time and time again - those who remember her, and those who don't. But still, it's always good to remember the time spent together, not just the departure. Maybe that's why she's finally smiling.]

Only some time ago did we start picking mikan at her orchard, if you know about it. ...We did that before she left Luceti. [Ah, that hurt. That hurt so much, especially after the things she learned at that time about Zoro - it was like insult to injury, really - but at least...at least she did enjoy herself picking the fruit for a while.]

Mm.

[That's the only note of affirmation that Perona heard that Nojiko will get. Were she in a better mood, she may have acually been surprised by that bit of information - though it won't be forgotten. Her duty was to get information, and that was a good bit of it, a piece to be stored away, surely.

She's quiet for a few minutes again, before she finally can't stand not speaking anymore and looks out the window, pulling her teddybear close to her side for a cuddle. Ugh, she does not want to talk about this...but she can't stop herself, either. Damnit.]


I lived with their swordsman for two years. ...I want to tend to his wounds during his training on the island. [A beat.] It was impossible for him to keep the blood in his body. That imbecile.
