[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.))

[You know something?

He'll get murdered six ways from Sunday if he suggests anything other than Nami being pure.

HE KNOWS YOU'RE LURKING, SANJI.]

Oh, I see. You mean the heart as the soul.

[risingwinds]

Well, hearts and souls are still pretty different, but something like that!

[Ven laughs.]

At least, that's how it worked before. An evil witch named Maleficent stole a Princess' heart, so I had to go and save her.

[deathsdoctor]

Oh. Though we're pretty sure that she's asleep because of the Malnosso and not her.

...

Unless they have a witch like that on staff.

[risingwinds]

...You know, after that Count guy, it really wouldn't surprise me.

[deathsdoctor]

... me neither...

[Refusing to wince here.]

NOTHING

[Law, you and him need to stop meeting in the brackets like this.

But good answer]
