[Very attractive, Ace.]
Got it. Let me just put this somewhere first. [His stash of berries. Not that he thinks anything will eat them, he doesn't want them to get scattered where he has to collect them all again.]
This is a pretty nice island.

Aye, that's true.
[He doesn't completely laugh, but he wiggles his feet in amusement.]
I am the weaver of crowns, yoi.
Even if you say you don't need him, I think you would benefit just as much. Besides, he'd probably die of joy at adding another good fire phoenix son.
Ikki, what is it you want to do in this world?

*Perhaps she had forgotten that way he had of taking everything she said and making it sound as though she cold hearted or inconsiderate*
Oh course that's not what I meant. If I feel at all uncomfortable right now.. it isn't anything to do with that.
*She thought she had been being reasonable, or at least civil enough. They probably both know she would likely not be so calm if they were having this conversation elsewhere. But even then, his tone stings and he won't even look at her.
So he closes the gap between them, since his eyes are closed, and she stands right in front of him. She's not sure what to say, she just knows that she's frustrated at him for treating her this way, and when she speaks her voice is quiet, trembling slightly*
Even the animals are courteous enough to look at me, instead of trying to wish me away.

"Exactly. We may as well sail with that other crew...what's their name again...the Friend Ship?"
He thought the name was stupid, and incredibly telling of their crew.
They found more flowers from earlier and he knelt next to view them closer. "If we take them back with us, we'd have to return quickly, so they can get in some water."

That doesn't answer the question. [Aya stands up, in case he has to walk away briskly.] Now, why don't you like the island?
[Aya only chuckles without commenting about anyone having brain power. He's sure they all do, but he wonders about Ace sometimes.]
I am. [He's noticed everyone aboard, luckily.]You're either Vyse, Mako, or Naesala, right?

"Oh yeah!" Selphie giggled at the thought, "I'm surprised you didn't wanna jump crews straight away after hearing about that one. Think of all the fun friendship stuff they'll be doing all the time." She looked up at him with a wink, sticking out her tongue at him.
Selphie leaned even closer to the flowers, trying to smell them without falling face first into them, which is in danger of doing. "What about getting some water from here too? It's kinda different. Really refreshing. Think the flowers would like that?"

*So Selphie knew there were a couple of newbies around on the ship, but she hadn't had the chance yet to hang out with them all. So when sees this new guy wandering around, of course she's going to pounce of the opportunity.
Selphie gets herself as close to him as possible, peering over his notebook*
Writing love poems?

"Don't even joke like that." Aya may have paled a bit at that. Maybe.
He couldn't resist pressing a finger into her shoulder blade gently, slowly easing her forward while she smells the flower. Of course, he would catch her before she would lose her balance completely.

"Maybe Friend Ship wasn't enough for you. If it was the 'Fun and Friend Ship and Let's Cuddle and Eat Cupcakes' that would be more tempting...?"
There was quite the surprised squeal from Selphie as she came very close to flattening the flowers in front of her. Loud enough that a couple of near by birds looked at her as though she was being rude, and flew off. "Aya! I nearly squished your flowers!~"

Selphie spies an Ace through the trees where she is. Given the poisoning and all of late, she figures that maybe this island is good for him, and he can probably due with a little bit of cheering up. So she looks around the rabbits and the deer and the cute little birds she's surrounded by, and she nods in Ace's direction.
Yes, Ace, Selphie is sending these adorable woodland creatures to snuggle and nuzzle you.

Aya grabbed Selphie and steadied her with a grin. "Then you shouldn't make bad jokes." He stood up and offered a hand. "You had a good idea, though. Lets get some water first, then come back for them."
Edited 2014-04-15 10:41 (UTC)
Selphie laughed at that and nudged into him as he steadied her, "Nothing wrong with my jokes!" She wobbled a little when he stood, but she reached up to him with both hands. "There's a lake I went to. It's kinda outta the way, but it's pretty. And has water, which is the point, I guess."
She glanced around her, trying to figure out where she is and which way to go, "But...uhm. Leanne showed me..."

[He feels an eyebrow twitch at Marco's words. Adding another son?]
It's then a good thing that he wouldn't get to do so even if he came here.
[The frown increases with the next question, not out of annoyance but of confusion, mostly. What he wants to do? Is there such a thing?]
Follow Ace and you to whatever end there is, I suppose. I've never really considered wanting to do something other than protect my brothers even back home. I've nothing there, and there's even less here unless it's you two and the crew.
[Though admittedly it's mostly Ace and Marco. And Thatch and Namur by extension, everyone else, could be changed by anyone as far as he cares.]

[One should always be careful of what they wish for, or what they demand for.
He senses her moving, knows where she's going, he doesn't need his eyes to see her. Just as he didn't need to be right besides her to know what she was up to. But she never understood that. Or maybe she just didn't care and that's why she had often talked and talked as if he couldn't hear her, couldn't know what she was saying, simply because she didn't see him around. It's the reference to the animals which makes him react, anywhere else, maybe, just maybe, he would have had more control over himself. Here however, he's way too close to the boiling point. But she doesn't see it, doesn't care.
Uncomfortable and unhappy? She had no idea what she was talking about.
He stands up in less than a second and with him raises a wave a Cosmo that slams at all around him. It's only because of him remembering his talk with Marco that there's not a hell of flames all around them by now. He looks at her, just as she wants and demands, ironically, despite his anger and flaming aura when he looks at her there's more coldness than anything else. There's anger, carved there as if it was carved on stone, permanent and eternal, running way too deep to be covered or forgotten. But there's no actual hate, just... Indifference. As if the person in front of him only mattered to him as much as something he has a duty with would.]
Let's make something clear, woman.
[He calls her a woman, but the way he says it makes it sound as if he doesn't see her as one. Because she isn't. She's just a kid, another wannabe-princess brat that considers herself entitled to own someone else and entitled to have their respect even if she has done nothing to earn it.]
I am not an animal. Even if a phoenix can be considered a type of bird, it's definitively not an animal. And it's not something that you could ever keep as a pet.
And I don't care how many talks you have with Marco or how much you twist that childish brain that you have to try to think of it, you will never know anything about phoenixes or about me.
[He starts to walk, his step heavy and with each one another wave of oppressing-close-to-explode Cosmos is sent.]
I don't need to use my eyes to see you, I don't need to be near you to know what you're up to, with whom you're. I don't owe you any respect, and the only care and attention that I have to give to you, is the same I have to give to anything that the captain cares for.
[If it wasn't because of his loyalty to Ace... He would care more about the ships than her, but he can't do that so if she's ever in trouble, he will help, he will protect her if he has to and save her if no one else can. But that's all. She means nothing to him now, she's just another part of his duties here and he's not going to indulge in her more than he has to.]
This is your last warning. Unless you have something specific to talk to me about regarding the crew or a mission, don't bother me. Go play with the animals or go play the role of the victimized princess of your own tale as much as you want until your loyal knight comes to save you. Do whatever you want. But whatever you do, do it away from me or I will destroy you in such a way that not even Davy Jones will be able to find a trace of you to put you together again.
[Of course, it's an empty threat, even if part of him would want to, especially now in this island, she's part of the crew and he has to protect her. But he has no intention of telling her that and would prefer that she would just get the idea that he would kill her, so she never comes to think that he still cares about her in any way.
He continues walking, going around her as if she wasn't there, as if he hadn't just been talking to her and enters further into the forest, in search of Marco. It's all he can do if he wants to avoid exploding and burning the whole place. If there's a next time and she chooses to be stupid again and talk to him with no important purpose, he will just ignore her and leave.]

*Selphie visibly flinches when he calls her 'woman' like that. No one has ever called her that, in such a tone of voice, but it feels horrible. She can't help but stare at him after that, waiting for what he has to say. But there he goes again, bending her words, making her seem like some kind of cruel, cold-hearted bitch. Then he calls her childish, continues to explain how he just doesn't care. Selphie takes a few steps back then, doing her best not to break his glare, doing her best to try and stand up for herself.
She takes a deep breath as he begins to walk away, her mind reeling with her options. A part of her wants to cry, at the frustration at being treated this way, and how little he really does care, and at the nasty way he has spoken to her. But something inside her snaps. She doesn't have to worry about any other feelings that she has for him anymore. There's not a relationship here that she's desperately trying to maintain. This is, as he's said, nothing, and he makes it perfectly clear just how much he wants rid of her. But that's not fair*
No.
*That's all she says at first, but as he moves past her side, she turns and shoves her fist against his shoulder, giving him a violent push. It's almost a punch, if not the strongest one she can manage*
You don't get to boss me around, Ikki. You don't get to tell me what to do. If you want rid of me that much, then stop trying to "see me" without being near me. Who do you care who I spend my time with anyway? That is none of your concern.
I tried to have a conversation with you. I tried to be friendly. And what I get is this. You don't get to push me around, Ikki, treat me like shit, and then give me warnings. I don't know what the hell you think you are, but you do NOT have power over me.

[Super important crew stuff with a crate of energy drinks. Mako feels concerned for the ship right now, and he’s not exactly sure why. Yet. Ace.]
Roots have nutrients. Can’t live on just fish. [He doesn’t care that miniature polar bear dogs say otherwise.]
Wait, you’re going to bring some earth on board? [He almost pauses as they head down the ramp onto the island. Almost.
It’s Bolin, he shouldn’t be surprised. Just so long as he keeps his impervious optimism clear from his meticulouspessimism realism.]

Lost? Oh, that sucks. I'm glad you found me, then.
[He crawls out of the tent, standing up and brushing off his pants before taking a look around.]
I was thinking of staying the night, but that's about it. Just needed some space. Why?

[There are a ton of trees, more than Roxas has ever seen. It would be easy to get lost on this island, if he isn't careful. He still finds it strange to move around unrestricted like he does. The beach is one thing, but wandering through the forest is probably a bad idea.
All the same, it's fun to fly around above everything. There's a certain level of freedom there. There's literally nothing in their way and Roxas can't help but grin.]

[Natsuno peers over the edge of the crow's nest.]
Yes!
Yes!
Relatively.
[Don't mind the teeth Vyse, he won't bite without permission!]
I don't like this island.
[Don't mind the teeth Vyse, he won't bite without permission!]

[He lands with a big splash which leads him to yelp in surprise.]
Hey!
[He splashes again, jerk.]
I do all kinds of work!
Hey!
[He splashes again, jerk.]

Not that I mind that, but I'm too used to protecting my own brother's dreams.
[Marco winds up softly.] I guess you really are that much like me, yoi.
[Marco winds up softly.] I guess you really are that much like me, yoi.
[Marco flies about, almost weaving through it all like a skier down a mountain as he mentally maps everything.]
[It's been a long time since he got to do this with a rider, and truth told, he'll always prefer it that way. However much he's usually alone, being the eldest brother of the Whitebeard family has pretty accustomed to sharing experiences with someone he loves.]

Yeah? [ He's not seeing any issues here. ] I'm an earthbender. Not all of us can jab our fingers at something and have our element shoot out at stuff. If I'm living on the ocean, I'm pretty sure I'll want some around. [ What if Pabu needs an emergency earth ring to jump through? Or if the Navy shows up, he guesses. ] Oh, got it!
[ The rucksack is open and the coat's getting dumped on the nearest beach rock to dry in peace. He's a genius. ] Bag of rocks. I'm a genius.
