Adventure 2- Bubbly Coral [Video]

[weakahoshi]

[Shirahoshi's still pretty timid about the journal, but it's one of the few links she has to the majority of the goings on in the village. And she'd like to remedy that, if she can. So Luceti gets a treat today- the oversized Mermaid Princess herself, making a video post.

She fidgets with the journal for a few seconds after it begins recording, trying to frame herself up correctly, then realizes with a jolt that she's on air, as it were.]

It's already working! Oh. Um...

[She probably should have thought about what to say before she started recording. Too late now. Manners! She straightens up her back and stops stammering.]

I was wondering if anyone in the village has seen some bubbly coral. A few people have mentioned that there's an item shop that sometimes gets things from our home worlds. [Don't say "Um"!] B- bubbly coral looks a lot like normal coral, but the ones mermaids use for floating has kind of a button on it, usually on the bottom but sometimes on the side. If you find some, I'd really appreciate it if you could bring it to me out in the ocean. I- if it isn't too much trouble, that is...

[She looks like she'd like to say more, but she doesn't know what, and so cuts off the video feed.]

[OOC note: bubbly coral, for those who aren't familiar with One Piece stuff.

Note 2: I just got modly permission to have someone find it for her. So someone can feel free to recognize it, if they so desire! Marco found it! Thank you!]

Will this be enough Princess?

[Holds up a pink bubbly coral about the length of his forearm. Still, he hopes someone else found some, just in case a lot more is needed.]

[weakahoshi]

[Her face lights up.]

Yes! Oh, thank you Marco-sama!

[Even a small one would work, it would just be harder for her to handle.]

[fierybluebird]

Now you can get around the island, right? [Land? He can't help thinking of it as an island, even though it's not.]

Just promise me you'll be careful, eh?

[weakahoshi]

Mm, I will! I can come visit the village now!

[And not have to go through five toilets to get there!]

[fierybluebird]

[YAY!]

Aye, just remember, it won't be too easy, eh? [He's nervous about the whole thing, but it's not like there are any slavers around, and she's not as big as Little Oars Jr. nor does she need to worry about being a target right now just from size? At least, no more than anyone else. Still. If he can't protect Fishman Island, he definitely can't let Neptune's kids get hurt. Ahhh he's overthinking it. She deserves some freedom and he shouldn't let his baseless worries impede that. Then again, she's probably at least a little fragile like her Mom. Oi oi.] Do you know Keimi? It might help to have a guide until you know your way around at least.

[weakahoshi]

Oh, um. I have met Keimi-sama, but I... I haven't seen her here, though...

[fierybluebird]

She helps sew and design some clothes here. I'm surprised she hasn't seen you yet, eh? I'll try to send her your way.

[weakahoshi]

Th- that's kind of why I wanted the bubbly coral. S- so I can go visit people instead of expecting them t- to come to me.

[fierybluebird]

[Wry grin.]

Understood. My apologies Princess, I failed to take that into account, but that's very noble of you.

I'll bring it over right away, just be careful. Some of the buildings are narrow and...

[Fragile but gutsy like her mother and giant like her Dad. What a combination.] If you ever run into trouble, promise you'll call, okay?

[weakahoshi]

I will! And I'll be careful not to hurt anything in town. Should I meet you by the teleporter?

[fierybluebird]

Yes, please! That'd be very convenient, thanks.
