[letthestormrageon]

Of course it's okay!

[She offers Keimi a hand in order to help her get up on the horse sculpture with her.]

When I was a child I used to ride alongside my sister because she was still too young to ride by herself. So I don't mind the company.

[Of course, those rides and everything else ended with the accident, but that's another story.]

Are you having fun?

[seakingbait]

[She happily takes her hand and carefully hops up onto the horse's back.]

A ton! How about you?

[letthestormrageon]

I'm riding around the island on an ice horse, how could I not be having fun?

[There's a short laugh accompanying her words with a neigh from the horse.]

People's faces are priceless when they see me.

[And so far no one seems to be afraid of her, which is a big plus. Honestly, as much as Elsa wanted to try this, she had been a ball of nerves and fear at first. She expected people to spot her ice and just attack her even, and even when it didn't happen right away it still took a bit for her to relax.]

[seakingbait]

I know the feeling.

[A young woman riding a bubble around town is probably equally bizarre. Thankfully her fin is hidden under her dress, or the stares would probably get worse.]

[letthestormrageon]

No one has given you trouble, right?

[Keimi's fin is hidden with the dress, but Elsa knows better than anyone that something hidden doesn't always stay that way. And no one knows how the people here would react to a mermaid, sure, they aren't reacting badly to a girl with ice powers but still...]

[seakingbait]

Not yet. The people in the market were very kind, in fact.

[Maybe they thought she was rich, riding around on something so exotic.]

[letthestormrageon]

Good, if anyone is anything but kind with you, don't hesitate to tell me. I will give them a small lesson about manners.

[Well, she or whoever gets to them first, most surely. She doubts any of the others would just stand still if Keimi or any of them suffered any kind of mistreatment.]

[seakingbait]

[She nods.]

Thank you, Elsa-chin. I'll help you if anyone gives you trouble, too.

[Not that she's sure what she could do against someone giving her trouble, but the sentiment is there at least.]

[letthestormrageon]

[She knows and she appreciates the sentiment. She's really, really lucky to be in this crew. She never would have thought that when she first talked with Luffy.]

Guess that means we will protect each other, hm?

Have you seen any interesting places so far?

[seakingbait]

[Keimi feels very similarly.]

The market is incredible. So many beautiful things for sale. I even thought I saw some people riding big scaly-looking animals. It was really neat!

[letthestormrageon]

Did you buy anything? I haven't seen anyone riding scaly-looking animals, where was that? Near the market?

[seakingbait]

Yeah! They were pulling a wagon full of stuff.

And I bought a ton of fabric. There was stuff from islands I've never even heard of!

[letthestormrageon]

I'll have to go there and see if I can spot them myself, I'm quite curious as to how they look like!

I guess that means the trading relationships of this island with others are very good. Maybe we should mark this island specially as an alternative supplies resource besides Isla Empieza.

[seakingbait]

Mhm. It would be nice to not have to sail all the way back to Empieza to restock. Sometimes we use more supplies getting there than to our destination.

[letthestormrageon]

[She nods.]

I think that ideally we should have an alternate restocking island in all four cardinal directions, with Isla Empieza being the center for obvious reasons. Islands with good and healthy trade relations would be the best options.

[seakingbait]

And the more markets we visit, the more strange and exciting things we can buy!

[letthestormrageon]

Indeed. That's also why an island with good trade would be better. Some countries often reserve exotic and unique resources for trade, since within the country they are too common and lack any real value. So some things can only be found in the countries they trade with.

[seakingbait]

I never thought about it like that. You're really smart, Elsa-chin.

[letthestormrageon]

[She laughs.]

I just know a bit about trade and economy, that's all.

[And politics and other things necessary to rule. But she keeps that to herself as it has no relevance since she ran away from Arendelle.]

[seakingbait]

We're really lucky to have you as a nakama.

[Really, it's nice to have someone with their finances in line around here.]

Maybe now we'll get to keep some treasure around!

[letthestormrageon]

So long as Luffy doesn't get too adamant on spending it all on something non important...

[Which he probably will do. And they will try to stop him. And fail because stopping Luffy doesn't happen often.]

[seakingbait]

[The next time Luffy wants to buy a thousand pounds of meat, or a suit made out of gold. Or a suit made out of meat.]

Maybe we can get a bigger lock. It works for Sanji-chin in the kitchen, at least.

[Then again, Sanji can also kick Luffy clear to the other end of the ship, so there's that.]

[letthestormrageon]

It would be easier if his attention span was actually predictable. It's surprising how sometimes he can't seem to concentrate and other times it's basically impossible to make him think of something else.

[Because then they could think of tricks and such to distract Luffy and keep him from spending the treasure.]

[seakingbait]

If we knew how Luffy-chin worked, he wouldn't be Luffy-chin.

[She's just resigned to that fact. Luffy is as Luffy does.]

[letthestormrageon]

That's an advantage by itself, don't you think? If there's ever a day in which we can predict all of his actions accurately, it will mean that we're dealing with an imposter.
