[ hello roommate! on this bizarre evening, gu yun is at the kitchen table of their common area suite, idly flipping through one of the dirty magazines. he's no longer dressed in the ariana grande nightmare outfit, the flashing ears set to the side of the table, and when he hears the door, he glances up, then cocks his head, eyes sweeping over the new person. ]
...you must be 'Trafalgar Law', then? [ a beat, and then, an easy smile. ] Nice to meet you.
[ well if he's not going to be dressed up like the ariana grande nightmare, then law sure will given the fact that he'll be finally making his way there. his animal of choice? snow leopard. ...not that it's really obvious because it's just a fluffy set of ears and a "tail". ]
I am. [ he'll be removing the headband now though, thanks for asking. ] Gun Yun, wasn't it?
[ just. sipping from a drink in his hand (it is probably one of those cans of white claw) as he watches this guy make his way through the room in his ariana grande clothes still. can you walk ok in those heels, law. ]
Gu Yun. [ confirming that, and with a helpful gesture towards the closet - ] - You'll find your own clothes in there, I think, though if you'd like to continue pulling off what you're wearing, suit yourself.
[ he's just fine. ...and because i forgot to mention this—don't mind his tattoos either. they're just a little bit of ink. ]
I don't particularly care what I'm dressed in.
[ he says but he's definitely making a b-line towards the closet to fish out his clothes which are no less animal themed but at least are covering. when you go from scanty to completely covered... it's fine. ]
If you don't particularly care, then could I say the same for you?
[ law's right, though. gu yun is pretty easygoing, or at least seemingly so, though his eyes do flick briefly over his tattoos. there's a smile on his face, and he's holding the can by the top, absently spinning it around while the bubbles inside fizz when law does return. ]
Besides, I did agree to be here. As did you, no?
it'd be less cursed if i kept better hours during the weekend u_u
[ he'll just shrug at gu yun with the very on point remark. they both were seemingly taking things easily. ]
I did. [ he bids farewell to the ears and plops his hat back on his head (re. he throws them into the closet with mild annoyance.) ] We all did, if I'm understanding things correctly.
[ which is neither here nor there? however there are a few things that he pondered while reading their "welcoming" document. sure it gave them a lot of "answers" but at the same time— ]
Mm. [ to that, he turns his hand around to show - there's a golden crown on the outside. ]
While I'm flattered by the comparison, I'm not much of royalty. I don't know if this is necessarily what I'd want permanently tattooed on my body - it might have been nice to have a say in it. What about you?
[ it doesn't show, but he's annoyed >:T they had enough time to ask him to be here and not to discuss the fine print, huh!!! ]
i've banned myself for them over the weekend after today :T
well then. law will also offer his hand up showing the exact same tattoo. given the amount of ink on him, it's likely not that strange or out of place however the gold among the black and the simplicity of it... ]
I doubt it has to do with royalty but whatever it does mean, we're likely not going to be working against each other when the time comes.
gu yun, rapidly sensing he might be able to churn some chaos, grins, propping his chin on his hand. ] So does that make them truth tellers, or liars? Maybe some sort of king wouldn't want the whole world to know it.
I would go with opportunist and liars; most of the people here don't seem to know one another. [ he noted a few exceptions?? but?? ] Easily to capitalize and make claims of grandeur when there are none.
[ in before someone here is actually royalty and he just didn't care enough to find out. ]
[ gu yun laughs to himself, clearly very amused at his own joke. he thinks he is so funny.
while he's doing that, though, he scrolls absently through the profiles - ] Oh, a sword wasn't the stick I was expecting. You're a pirate, are you? What sort?
[ keep laughing at yourself.... law will just rest his sword against his shoulder out of habit (and comfort) as he considers the next question. ]
What do you mean what kind of pirate?
[ there are different kinds? he. has not looked at the profiles yet so he's a bit ??? but then gu yun is looking through the phone so he put two and two together. ]
Oh, you know. A smuggler, a pillager, both, something in between? Allied with another nation in secret, or working alone? Things like that. We tend to have the former the most, so I'm curious.
[ his canon point just came off of dealin with smuggling pirates, actually. ]
[ how do you ally yourself with a nation in secret and work alone? good question. either way, he's dead serious about it and completely unflinching about his response. ]
[ sometimes you just have an odd skillset and boy will he have a few thinks when he checks out gu yun's profile. "giving and receiving daddy issues"...... ]
I wasn't worried about what you thought of what I do. [ he says with all of the conviction of a tsun—but with the dere under 12 ft of concrete. ] What I do back where I'm from is my problem, isn't it? I didn't realize that they had written stuff about all of us.
A man who sticks to his convictions. [ and... is a pirate. he says nothing about that, though, instead taking his own device and pushing it across the table, since he already has the profiles open. he's a ye olde, don't make him explain how to find them, because he only just figured it out himself. ]
There's quite a bit on there - have you read the information, as well? There's a very interesting letter, too, though you'll find that on paper here. [ patpats the paper copies of the faq. ]
