Can't be tamed! // 4th Wall [Video &/or Action]

[fierybluebird]

[You know normal people when things get them down drink, carouse, carry on, lock themselves in a tower and cry for ten years... Okay well maybe not "normal" but people other than Marco do that. Marco on the other hand, grabs a piece of chalk and makes a hopscotch set out in the middle of the most open non-plant infested piece of pavement he can find. And then of course he shows off, because when you can fly and do backflips like nothing, hopscotch is really easy.]

Oi oi, for the life of me I can't remember if there's a rhyme that goes with this, eh?

[Yes, completely showing off with a few backflips.] Anyway, someone want to come play with me?

[Feel free to mock him, yell at him for showing off, try to push him over... you know whatever.]

[fierybluebird]

What really? About Japan, I mean.

[Shakes his head.] On second thought don't tell me.

[Sticks his tongue out at Ace.] You say that like it's even a problem.

[hiken_ace]

Yeah. I've met him before, too. [He gives him an annoyed look.] With you? It definitely can be.

[fierybluebird]

[Messes up Ace's hair more.]

No way. It's a good thing.

[hiken_ace]

[He swats his hand away.] Fine, but only sometimes.

[fierybluebird]

Try all the time.

[hiken_ace]

[He sighs.] You're just as delusional here as you are in Luceti.

[fierybluebird]

Oi oi, what delusional? This is how the world looks without filters, try it sometimes.

[hiken_ace]

I don't look at the world with filters. You look at it in the craziest way possible.

[fierybluebird]

That's what I'm talking about matey. The world is completely crazy. Look at this. You died, and wound up in two different places, with two different versions of me in each. And now you're here despite being from the other one. What do you call that?

If you don't look at it like that, you'll miss out on things.

[hiken_ace]

... well, I call it two things. Frickin batshit, and me being extremely lucky.

[fierybluebird]

Lucky, you really think so?

[hiken_ace]

More time no matter where I am is still more time. And I'm grateful for it.

[fierybluebird]

[HUGS.]

I'm glad. I was worried that trying to get you here was too selfish, but...

Both me's are lucky too, eh? For getting to spend more time with you.

[hiken_ace]

[...ahahaha Ace can't help but laugh at that.] You've never seemed to care about being selfish before. And hell, I'm definitely happy there's more of you.

[fierybluebird]

[Laughs back.]

Well, there's being selfish and then there's downright torturing you.

Even my sadism has limits believe it or not.

[hiken_ace]

[He opens his mouth to speak, but the closes and begins thinking. After a minute, he shakes his head.]

I don't get how it's torturing me if I don't mind being here.

[fierybluebird]

This place isn't always greenery and fun.

[hiken_ace]

--when has any place we've been just greenery and fun? Can't be that bad.

[fierybluebird]

Heh, fair enough. It's not really Impel Down, It just seemed like you weren't really sure where to go from here. And I'm still looking for an ocean in this place.

[hiken_ace]

Trust me, there are very few things as bad as Impel Down.

... not having an ocean... I can see why he-- I'd be lost.

[fierybluebird]

Aye. And I guess having completed one's dream makes it harder, eh?

[hiken_ace]

--wait, what do you mean? [Did that lucky bastard get to see Luffy as Pirate King?]

1/3

[fierybluebird]

[... DEAD SILENCE.]

2/3

[fierybluebird]

[According to Japan, Ace's dream was to be loved, hell even at Ace's death Marco starting thinking that. Was he wrong? Damn it, damn it, damn it, he knew it didn't go right! Of course it wasn't enough! Why would it have been?]

3/3

[fierybluebird]

[Controlled smooth deadpan.]

You tell me matey.
