[Voice]/[Action] Fourth Wall

[goldenglasses]

[Vash is trying to get the last of his Christmas shopping done and can be spotted in the various shops trying to get ideas. But as he comes up lacking still he decides he needs cheering up and opens his journal.]

HEY! TWINKLE TOES!

I haven’t forgotten our bet. You know it doesn’t count if I don’t get to SEE you. I’m headed for the fountain. I’ll meet you there. [No he won’t. He’s totally going to hide so you have to search for him. And thus! Get more time out in public!] Oh! And don’t worry! I’m sure if you ask nicely Nami will let you borrow a pretty one~!!

We don't WANT our lives inconvenienced. Kidnapping isn't a very fun deal.

Define "for what."

[goldenglasses]

That's what I'd like to know. What do you get from this?

[fantasyfan17.livejournal.com]

It's...a chance to explore our favorite characters on our own terms. To test the way we think that they work, and their thought processes. And it's the chance to see them meet people they'd never be able to meet otherwise.

If he hadn't been brought here, Usopp never would have met you or Luka. And you guys are good friends to have.

I'm glad to have met them... buuuuuuuuuuuuuuut how about giving us the option now where we can return to our lives now? I have some important things that need to be taken care of back home!

Eh, less up to us and more up to the mods. We apply for people to bring in but they're the ones who decide who stays and goes.

[goldenglasses]

Mods? Who's a mod? I wish to speak to one.

They pretty much run the place. Moving, drastic changes, approval, death penalties- just about anything, really, you have to run by them.

Kind of afraid of them, myself.

[goldenglasses]

D-death penalties?!!

[fantasyfan17.livejournal.com]

When someone dies in Luceti, they don't stay dead. But they don't come back the same, either. It's kind of like a give-and-take, and the consequences vary from person to person.

It could be memory loss, limb loss, blindness, anything like that. Hell if I'm ever thinking of anything like that for Usopp, though, he's staying alive no matter what.

[goldenglasses]

I read something like that in the guides. Aw man... it's real?

Really!? You mean it! You promise he won't die!?

[fantasyfan17.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately, it is real.

I, for one, do not have it within my heart to see a dead Usopp. And for another thing, he's really good at staying alive on his own.

Thanks!!!!!!!!! Maybe you're not so bad after all!
