A Reunion

@xamassed // from here.

His breathing and the strain in his voice concerned her. It seemed like something beyond a mental reaction, leaning more into the territory of being from physical damage. It was then that she wondered what kind of injuries Thatch had sustained from Teach. He had been out for a long time hadn't he? With how fast her mind had been running after finding out Thatch was alive, she hadn't paused to consider if he had any lasting injuries from his survival. She could ask about it later, when they got to the home he was staying at.

Her arms relaxed at her sides when Thatch held up most of his own weight again. She stayed close by him as they began to walk, her shoulder available if Thatch needed to lean an elbow or hand for support as he led the way to his safehouse. She offered a chuckle, "You should be. The others wouldn't have gone so easy on you" She was trying to joke, to keep things lighthearted, but she couldn't stop the way her throat had tightened once more. Her lips warbled before falling into a softer smile, "I'm glad too."

Tears pricked at her eyes and the feeling of her nose tingling caused her to sniff as she glanced to the side, Akane clearing her throat to will away the need to cry once more. It tried to claw its way up to the surface.

"This family... you trust them?" She asked, shifting the topic to one that wouldn't threaten her emotional control. She had to admit, she didn't like the idea of civilians being involved. It would be far too easy for them to tip off the marines if the money was good enough. Thatch had stayed with them for this long already though... She'd keep her own eye out just in case. Thatch was just becoming privy to how bad of a state the Whitebeard Pirates were in- how compromised and in danger all of them were. Akane did not have the capacity to trust any unproven comrades right now.

👫 ( Sanji and Camilla or Thatch and Daphne! )

meme // accepting

Camilla knows how to cook from her time living alone, but she was no where near Sanji’s skill level. So whenever she can, she enjoys watching / helping him out to learn.

Sanji and Camilla are usually on the same side when it comes to lecturing other members of the crew. Usually this comes with cleanliness and hygiene. Nami also joins them in this sometimes and it feels like they are the only three who understand the importance of washing before eating. (I factor Robin and Usopp in the “know better but won’t lecture” group).

A section of her garden is filled with fruits, vegetables, and herbs for Sanji to use. While it isn’t a lot and limited to what can grow on a ship, Camilla loves the challenge of growing things that aren’t flowers. 

She views Sanji as a big brother. And once she got use to his extreme chivalry, he is one of the members she tends to hang out with the most. Though she will still roll her eyes at any over the top sweet comments. 

She tends to be a trouble maker, so whenever she needs to hid from Izo after doing such, she will go to the kitchen and drag Thatch into it. She is not sorry about this in the slightest and won’t stop. 

Dahpne hates cooking due to how she was brought up. If she is ever on duty to help out in the kitchen, she’ll go but its really hard to make her do anything. Over time she will cooperate, especially if it is right after she caused a problem. Her little way to make up for it. 

The family dynamic of the Whitebeard Pirates is very important to her. Her own family didn’t treat her like such, so she loved the fact that she found a new father and siblings. Thatch getting killed by Teach was devastating to her, she couldn’t comprehend someone betraying their brother in such a way. 

She was actually quite pissed upon finding out he is alive. Of course she is happy to have him back, but she endured more grief then she would like to admit. So there is a brief period where Daphne gave him a hard time in retaliation.

Familiar Faces

[ starter call ]

[ ✖ ] – To say Akane was down on her luck was to put it lightly. She was still licking her wounds from the Marineford War when the Payback war was thrust upon her and the rest of her crew. It was after that when she disappeared, vanishing from the eyes of bounty hunters and bloodthirsty fighters looking to claim the heads of Whitebeard Pirates, agreeing with the crew to scatter across the ocean.

Her independent travels led her to an inconspicuous island where she had been staying for a few weeks. She felt bad asking-- nor did she want to beg for help, so she was able to strike a deal with an elderly couple to do labor on their farm if she could rest in the barn. Quite honestly, the change of pace was welcomed, and the work kept her mind off of repeating upsetting memories.

She was running an errand for them, bringing wheels of cheese to the local market when her eyes caught the sight of a familiar silhouette and almost as if seeing a ghost, she jolted as her heart skipped. “...” She could not speak as her eyes locked onto who could only be Thatch and the cheese wheels she had been holding slipped from her grasp onto the cobblestone.

@xamassed​ liked for a small starter [ Thatch ]

He’s staring at the giant boat, amber eyes both thrilled and filled with terror. It’s probably the first time he sees something that huge, the vessel almost takes half of the harbor. Jovan managed to escape his cage for a few weeks, but his run is becoming even more difficult because of his hunger. He’s used to starving for a long time, but while he needs the energy to run away, he’s losing precious time the more his stomach remains entirely empty. Perhaps the crew of this ship is entirely gone for the rest of the day, those ships needing a lot of supplies whenever they take to the sea. So Jovan musters his courage up and climbs on the deck, somewhere he believes to be near the kitchen. 

Once he’s up on the ship, he immediately shifts under his wolf form, since it’s quite more effective to pretend he’s just a lost animal looking for something to eat. He presses his nuzzle right against the floor, and follows the scents, until he enters what seems to be a large kitchen. He’s already drooling, his amber eyes shifts from a shelf to another one, hoping that no one would be here to stop him.

It was hard to hold in the chuckle, the chuckle when the man Noir tripped nearly fell over. He didn’t manage to get the man, but he did manage to end the life of the man’s groceries. There goes the precious veggies and milk and whatever else the man had hold in his bags. One way to cause chaos. Noir’s lips were spread into a wide grin, his travelers outfit making it easy to tug the tall collar of his full covering jacket to cover his mouth. Hilarious. Poor guy. 

The first reactions were perfect but the words the man said after, surprised the Snake. His violet eyes momentarily widened as his eyes shifted downwards to the wooden boards of the dock and then back to the male. Wow, saved from blame by the dock or the man’s dumbness. Both nice but also that meant he didn’t get an angry guy trying to fight him or cursing at him. Ah, what a dilemma. “Totally the dock, yeah.” He said sarcastically.

“At least you fed the ocean with your groceries. Too bad it won’t thank you for it.” More like feed the fishes or whatever resided in the bottom of the ocean. Noir sighed, his grin falling to a neutral expression as he stared at the male for a long while. Now that he thought about it, this guy must be one of the crew members of the ship docked nearby. A pirate crew he shouldn’t mess with, but also.... he’d totally do it as long as he didn’t get found out about it.

“But I guess you need to go back again and buy things all over again and hope the next time the ‘dock’ won’t get you.”

Akane was still new to being a member of the crew. It had been less than a month since she had officially joined, and so it could be said that she was still... adjusting to the crew’s culture. While there was certainly a level of order aboard the ship, it was nowhere near as strict and serious as her experiences in the Navy. It was for that reason that she seemed to continually walk into pranks or found herself to be the butt of jokes. She was simply an easy target for it. Unexpecting, unassuming. It was all done in good fun, but that didn’t stop her face from flushing red in embarrassment. It was perhaps why some choice pranksters targeted her in the first place.

She was finally beginning to catch on to it though. She would realize she was walking into a prank before it could fully play out, and she knew that if someone mentioned something that would prompt her to ask ‘what was x’ it was probably best to not say anything at all. Despite her efforts, she still sometimes let down her guard and it was how she found herself standing frozen under a door frame, drenched in water. 

It was silent save for the rattling of the bucket as it rolled away, Akane rigid and her grip on the handle nearly taking the entire door off its hinges. It was Thatch’s voice behind her that caused her to stir from her frozen state, her ears picking up snickering from a corner just down the hall.

“...Excuse me.” She said, leaving her commander to go beat some freckled ass.

The creaking of the wooden floor panels stirred her from her slumber, weary eyes falling upon her commander. It took her a moment to realize where she was and to remember how she had gotten there. Then, it all came quickly. Her night had been a restless one. The experience wasn’t entirely foreign to her, Akane having dealt with it in her younger years, but the chaotic nature of recent events hadn’t done any favours to her peace of mind. From the paradigm shift that came with her becoming a pirate, to her failed detainment attempt, and to her loss of her arm, she had more than enough to dwell on.

Wandering around at night and falling asleep in one of the crow’s nest was certainly one way to deal with it, she supposed.

She got up from her sitting position, the movement ungraceful as she was still adjusting to her new weight imbalance, “No- It’s alright. My fault.” Her hand went to her bandaged shoulder as she rolled it, getting the stiffness out of her neck and back. She glanced at Thatch before her focus quickly shifted towards the sky, “Almost noon?”

🌺 - FOR YOUR MUSE TO PUT A FLOWER ON MY MUSES’ HAIR. ( daphne & thatch )

✧ 𓏬 When he first started to touch her hair, her body had been unreasonably tense despite permission being granted. The idea of having her hair styled sounded nice, she loved to be pampered after all. Yet, Daphne realized that it had been a long time since she had actually allowed anyone to do such things.

Slowly, she started to relax. Closing her eyes and trying to have fun. It helped he was gentle with it. The woman thought back to a time when she use to always have her hair done by others. She never did enjoy it, those maids only preparing her the way her father wanted, and never with a care on how rough they were being in the process.

Maybe that's why she acts spoiled up until the moment someone actually wants to spoil her. Or maybe she is over thinking and ruining a nice moment.

"I didn't forget, you know." He came to sit beside her, shoulder bumping shoulder, and a plate of food slipping onto the table. Her favorite, of that he is absolutely certain. "I know I'm not your commander anymore, but it's still my responsibility to feed you. And you're still my sister. You know that, right?"

                  Akane was still getting used to not only the sight of Thatch, but being able to hear him speak again too. After her initial eruption that her former commander was unfortunately the target of, her emotional energy eventually fizzled out, being left with what she could only describe as a confused and exhausted relief. She was left slumped at the table of the small house Thatch was staying in, with what she perceived as a thick silence between them.

                  She stared down at the delicious looking plate of roasted ham and potatoes, the nostalgic smell enough to almost bring tears to her eyes again. However the main culprit of the potential waterfall was Thatch’s words of reassurance, reminding her that despite their time apart she was still his sister. She wanted to say a lot in return, to apologize, to insist he didn’t have to cook for her, to proclaim he was still family to her too...

                  She stuffed a forkful of ham into her mouth, hoping that it’d be excuse enough for her to not answer when speaking would cause her voice to break. “Mmph,” she said, a sound of agreement as she nodded her head and a sniffle left her nose.

[ ✖ ] – Her breath caught in her throat at the document placed in front of her. Eyes widening in disbelief. I mean yes, she kept getting into ridiculous fights with Ace and yes she could understand that the ruckus was disrupting everyone else on board, but REALLY? Despite the he-said she-said nature of the issue, was the solution really to document every insult and remark down on paper?

            She crossed her arms, clearly upset that her division commander was treating her like this, "Hey, isn't this a bit too much?! Did he have to sign one too?"
