ᅠ “ you can’t honestly think that ― no. he’s a nuisance. he’s no different from that clown i have to put up with these days. ” half-glaring up at her, before letting out a sigh. just more headaches .. ᅠ

ᅠ “ a certain pink bird is roaming around. butting into business that isn’t his own. ” ᅠ

ᅠ “ yes. unfortunately. ” ᅠ

ᅠ and pray tell, what reason would i have to take time out of my busy day and visit you, flamingo? you’re obsessed with me, and i couldn’t care less about you. it’s business. stay out of it, lest you ruin everything. ᅠ

ᅠ i don’t typically spend my time thinking about caged birds. nor those who escape their cages. i did align myself with others. an organization such as this would be a headache to manage otherwise. ᅠ

ᅠ #seductivesunday. he’ll be wearing less clothes than usual today. a different style. ᅠ

I҉ would like to pass the time somewhere singing cursed songs.

ᅠ .. who? ᅠ

ᅠ can mugiwara die already. ᅠ

ᅠ i’ve averted death numerous times over. my luck won’t run out anytime soon. though i can’t say the same for you, with how mugiwara leads you lot. ᅠ

ᅠ you are the one who brought up your unbecoming first. and so i’ll will your death to become a reality. ᅠ

ᅠ you needn’t worry. i’ll resume manifesting. ᅠ

ᅠ if anyone needs me, i’ll be feeding my bananawani. do not disturb. ᅠ

/ thank you .... 🤧

/ i can't tell if my croc is good ughh

ᅠ “ have you read the newspaper lately? i found the cross guild alongside mihawk .. and the big-headed clown. a new organization seemed like the right course of action after the dissolution of the warlord system. ” ᛎ⭏ ᅠ

sir crocodile

ᅠ “ how strange. receiving comfort. that’s hardly common these days, especially given my reputation .. ” his gaze followed her as she moved to the couch, an eyebrow raised as his hand lifted the cigar from his lips. ᛎ⭏ ᅠ

ᅠ this night has been .. almost peaceful. especially compared to last night. ᅠ

ᅠ a faint flush rose to his face as she crouched, realizing how obvious his discomfort must have been. he turned his head to look elsewhere when he felt it heating up, briefly pausing until the sheer embarrassment finally dissipated again. hmph. ᛎ⭏ ᅠ

ᅠ he rested his hand on his hip as he looked up towards her, sliding the cigar to the corner of his lips. passively smoking it while tapping his foot against the floor. half-tempted to float up to her level to make this less of a nuisance. ᛎ⭏ ᅠ

ᅠ a trail of sand coils around @theloanshark.bsky.social, reforming in the shape of crocodile, landing in the other man’s lap with a snicker. ringed hand tracing his jawline. ᛎ⭏ ᅠ

ᅠ he raised a brow as he looked up towards her, as to make it easier for her to light the cigar. emitted a small grumble in appreciation, he took a puff from it, exhaling smoke. “ .. if you say so. ” ᅠ

ᅠ a sigh, pressing the cigar to his lips again. letting it hang from them. “ i’ve had .. an interesting day. i’d rather not make it any worse for myself. ” ᅠ

ᅠ “ you look presentable enough. i’ve seen far worse. ” ᅠ

ᅠ “ i can hardly tell the difference. do you always fret about such little things, ivankov? ” ᅠ

ᅠ pressing a cigar to his lips, sighing a cloud of smoke. ᅠ

ᅠ when 𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘯’𝘵 you jealous. what could it have been this time, flamingo. ᅠ

ᅠ i had a run-in with mugiwara, and she decided she’d act like an untamed mutt. i’ll need to purchase replacements. ᅠ

ᅠ .. 𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘩. i couldn’t possibly guess. ᅠ

ᅠ clown. keep speaking and you will be drained of moisture next. ᅠ

ᅠ make sure your captain doesn’t desecrate the shipment. he seems the type who would. ᅠ

ᅠ can you lead her back onto your ship so she stays out of my business. ᅠ

ᅠ can you straw hats keep your rabid dog of a captain in check. ᅠ

ᅠ ( that coat is being thrown away. he has extras. ) ᅠ

ᅠ ... of course you aren’t potty-trained. grand. ᅠ

ᅠ “ stop speaking. stop spouting nonsense. leave already. ” ᅠ

ᅠ ( eyes narrowed as he slowly approached the other, lifting a foot to turn the dried-out man onto his back. ) hm. what was that? you‘ll need to speak louder. ᅠ

ᅠ ( tossing the man to the side when he was drained, wiping his hand off with a handkerchief. ) how unfortunate. seems i can do more than build sandcastles. ᅠ

ᅠ why are you here, mugiwara. i want nothing to do with you. ᅠ

ᅠ ( ringed hand reaching out and grasping galdino’s neck, draining the moisture from his repulsive body. ) ᅠ

ᅠ only because you took advantage of my weakness. until then, you hardly stood a chance. ᅠ

ᅠ and now mugiwara is here. this day could not possibly become worse. ᅠ
