INTRO LOG: MAY 2014

[highseasmods]

WELCOME NEW CHARACTERS!
Have an intro log for the month of May!

Who: Any and all new characters, as well as anyone hanging out on or around Isla Empieza!
Where: Near the fountain in the town center.
When: New characters will arrive around May 10th! The log is good for as long as you need it.
What: You've just been dropped on your head in a weird new world. Time to figure out what the heck is going on!
Status: VERY OPEN.

It's a brilliant May day, with blue skies and a soft breeze as you wake up. Everything about the otherwise grubby pirate port you are in speaks of spring. There are flowers surrounding the fountain, draping in colorful garlands over railings and balconies and tucked into all corners. There is a certain cheerfulness to it all and those in Empieza seem friendly and welcoming (to those who've been there before, they are far more pleasant than usual).

Feel free to throw your characters here if you need a place for them to get situated and start figuring things out! Start new threads, tag into others, meet the people who might just become part of your crew! Older characters will be in and out, too, depending who is on the island at the current time.

HAVE FUN! And welcome to High Seas!

[he wants to feel reassured, but even Luffy's words don't help. he sighs again, this time sounding frustrated] It's not okay. Maybe I messed everything up! [not that helping out the Tontatta tribe was exactly part of the plan in the first place...]

[he tips his head back a little, wishing he could just sink into the softness of his pillow and stay there. it was as if what scant energy he had left simply drained out of him] And now I'm here, and I don't even know how things'll end up back home.

[that was the worst of it. oh, the fact that he was defeated so easily even after his years of training stung, but it wasn't a surprise to him, exactly. there was a reason he'd first tried to flee instead of facing Trébol. but it was the not knowing that made this unbearable to him. for all he knew, he might even have ended up dead if he hadn't been brought back to this place]

So what if you messed up. [he folds his hands behind his head and looks at the ceiling, his voice is serious] Everyone loses fights. That's how you learn to win. Whatever happened, it's not over yet, Usopp.

[warriorofthesea]

That's part of the problem. Maybe it isn't over, but now I'm here.

[Usopp is going to worry about it whether Luffy tells him to or not, so maybe it's just something he has to figure out himself. Right now he needed to heal up]

You want some food? [someone would accept an iou rock until Nami got back]
