Entry tags:
Rose Picking: Bloody Roses v. Straw Hats
Who: The Straw Hat Pirates v. The Bloody Roses
Where: Isla d Quarzo Rosa
When: 12th-13th
What: Finding that token!hopefully not in bird poo
Warnings: The usual
Status: Closed
The officiant here says a bird ate our token. Good luck getting it. B|
Also info on the island:
♦ ISLA DE QUARZO ROSA
[Direction from Isla Empieza]: Somewhere in the South.
[Terrain]: Clouds and rose quartz gemstones. Wild twisted thorn jungles and cities built out of crystal pillars.
[Weather]: Crystal clear. It’s always warm and bright, thanks to the sunlight reflecting off the stones. It’s best to wear a pair of tinted sunglasses the entire time you are here. Light storms hover over the jungles once in a while but otherwise the island floats high enough that it’s almost always perfect weather.
[Is the island inhabited?]: Yes!
[If so, what is the culture like here?]: The people of the island are very short, the tallest standing around four foot tall, rounded faces, feet flat and duck like, body rounded but human. They are all slightly pink tinted in hair, like everything else around this place. The people here have learned to carve out huge villages in the centers of rose courts crystal pillars. They hunt for food, mostly birds, in the twisting thorn forest.
[Island peculiarities]: The jungles are light brown, pink to green and roll round and round in thick loops, twisting around each other. When tapped the sap inside the twisted tree like roots and thorny vines are sweet and almost intoxicating if you’re not raised on the stuff. Traders will sometimes come and collect sap for sale on the seas.
The island is made up purely of crystal stone, rose colored, jutting out here and there. There is a large deep patch of earth in the far northern side of the island that grows a forest, but nothing else will actually grow there. No crops are made here. This jungle however is FULL of birds. The larger crystal pillars can be hollowed out to build homes in.
The clouds under the city keep it hidden from the seas below, but the vines in the north have gotten so large and so wild that through the clouds thick spiny arms seem to grow and twist under the island as well.
The only food here is some form of bird or another, or strips of baked vines from the forest.
Full jars of sap tapped from the trees of this place fetch a nice price on the "below seas".
Have at, guys!

The mermaid follows at Anna's side, her bubble gently floating over the brush and bumps of the forest floor. Her eyes are glued to the treetops that blot out the sky. In that moment she questioned whether they even knew what the bird was supposed to look like. It must have been a big bird, at least, if it ate that coin they need.]
I don't know, land forests are so different from sea forests. They're really pretty, in their own way.
[While she speaks, she removes her seashell backpack and sets it in her lap, gingerly searching through its contents. What she takes out looks like a piece of bubbly coral stuffed into the opening of a large snail shell.]
I'm too slow on land, but maybe this will at least make my bubbles fast enough to catch one!

It's definitely different from any forests I've ever seen.
[She looks back over to Keimi as the mermaid searches through her backpack. A confused look crosses her face at what she takes out.]
Oh. What is that, anyway? Is that more of the coral you showed me?
[She moves closer to her as she asks this, curiously examining the item in Keimi's hands.]

[She giggles. This is the best idea ever.]
But... what kind of birds are we looking for?

[Because she's not about to hurt the poor little birdy. He didn't ask for any of this.]

She bounds over to one of the trees, where a bird roughly the size of Anna herself is currently preening. It doesn't even fly off when she gets near, it merely looks at her with visible annoyance.]
Okay, I want to see how that thing works. What about this bird? [Good thing it doesn't speak their language.]
no subject
[She points the tip of the coral at the bird, before pushing the spiral of the shell in. Like magic, a large gust of air rushes through the coral, and a large bubble is shot like a bullet towards the bird, where it quickly envelopes it. The bird, unable to fly, is knocked from the tree, and safely bounces on the ground below.]

[She'll let Anna do the honors.]
