[Hello Luceti. You’re greeted by the sound of a journal opening and muttering. And in the far background, rustling. Like something is squirming around in the distance - wrapping, twining, growing.

We might have a problem here.]

Is there anyone in the village with extensive knowledge of fairy tales? We have a situation on our hands we could use some advice dealing with. [Or maybe even a rescue, but Law’s pride keeps him from saying that much - for now.]

Thorns. [Katara’s voice piped in.] Lots and lots of thorns. They’re growing and overtaking the house, and we’re not sure why.

We think they’re connected to a kidnapping effect. The lady affected has been in an unnaturally deep sleep for days and nothing seems to wake her. [Nothing. Not even beer bottles perched on her head. 8|a ] Has anyone heard of anything like this?

((This is an open post that can be fielded by anybody trapped in the house. Threadjack to your hearts’ content - Law’s journal is made to be snatched from him and anyone else who has it.))

[Give Richard a second while he draws up a filter, as he still prefers that this information not be general knowledge...]

Do you think a king would work instead?

[You propose rock-paper-scissors and Law will totally be cheating with Haki to predict the outcome.]

Someone that isn't me? [SO HELPFUL. But wait, he'll explain why he's not a good candidate:] I'm not even single, so I doubt anything I do will work.

It honestly can't hurt to try. Do you know Miss Nami?

[Not cool, Law. Not cool. He thinks for a minute before snapping his fingers.] Sanji. Let's face it, he's the only one who could do it, and not care about getting his ass kicked after.

[--wait, what.] You're not?

He's already... tried. [Yes. Yes, he has.]

No. I'm not. I'm very much in a serious relationship.

... oh. [WELL shit, that's one down. Okay, thinking about the options again.] We can just not count Luffy, right?

[Huh. Learn something new everyday.] I'm glad for you, then.

Yes, she's a good friend of mine-- that's why I offered.

[It's not like he'd be offering to kiss women otherwise.]

Is she all right?

Right.

[And he smiles slightly.] Thanks.

Has Zoro tried? [Not like he really would, but... they can hope.]

Mind if I ask who the lucky girl or guy is?

Aa. Good. Better someone she knows than doesn't.

Aside from sleeping [And certain people using her face as a place to put down their beer. 8|a ] she's fine. The Malnosso didn't see fit to rough her up, which is a relief.

So it really is like the fairytale. At least the Malnosso seem to have had a sense of humor about it. As kidnappings go, this is one of the more innocuous I've seen.

Nope. We might have to promise him something to get him to do so.

[He doesn't mind.]

Oh, my partner's Uchiha Itachi. My housemate.

Yes, it's pretty tame. Just... irritating. Lucky.

I presume Sanji has already tried to awaken her?

Yes. He has.

[It went as well as you might... expect.]

He likes booze, right? We'll have to find the good stuff, then.

Mn, I don't think I've met him yet.

Perhaps I should come over before anything else happens.

We'll have to find him a great deal. I think the only person I can think that might be able to outdrink him is Miss Nami herself. [Because he's seen Nami drink. He DARES anyone to top that.]

I think he's met Mister Marco and that's it. You'll have to introduce yourself one of these days.

Please do.

[For the sake of us all.]

[And sure enough, he'll show up outside of House 6 about ten minutes later, journal in hand.

... yep, those are definitely thorns. Interesting. After a few moments of staring, he'll turn to his open journal.]

I don't suppose asking you to open the door would do much good.

Get ready to run. I'm going to try and slash a path through for you.

[That door might be creaking open and 'lo there's a flash of steel...]

Or Shanks. The only problem is actually convincing him to do this, even with the booze.

Mn, I'll definitely remember to.

[... Well, he does owe Zoro back for placing bottles on Nami-san's face.]

Can't we ask Vivi-chan to do it? I mean, she is royalty.

[Maybe if they dress her up in his Mr. Prince outfit...]

It's certainly worth a try. [Maybe this stupid thing makes allowances for princesses! Love shouldn't have bounds] Where is she? In her room?
