Well... that'll teach me to lose my journal. You would think I'd have kept better track of it, but it looks so much like all the other books I had lying about. I really should return some of those. [He pauses for a bit as if looking around the room.] Oh well.

Looking back on what you've all done, you've certainly been busy! And now, at least, I know where the music has been coming from. More of you need to dance. It's so cute.

Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease?

[This is Souji makes puppy-dog eyes now. :( ]

[justicereigns]

I don't dance. Being forced to once was bad enough.

[Bright BRIGHT red in return.]

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

But no one else has to see you~

[TRYING SO HARD TO WIN THIS. HNNNNGH. Puppy eyes and pleading faces to the max here.]

[justicereigns]

Even just seeing it myself is one too many.

Besides it's not even a real dance, just some stupid experiment or whatever.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[Now he gets sad puppy face.]

But I haven't seen it at all. And no one else wants to teach me...

Even if it isn't a real dance, it still looks fun.

[justicereigns]

I'm sure you could find someone better suited.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

But I was hoping you would help me.

[justicereigns]

Why is it so important?

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

Because it looks like fun!

[justicereigns]

But it wasn't.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

But I won't know that until I learn for myself.

[justicereigns]

Ask one of the Straw-hats. They're idiots, they'll probably enjoy it.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

Oh! Are you their friend?

[justicereigns]

Like fuck.

Straw-Hat's my prey.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

But why are you hunting them? They seem so nice.

[justicereigns]

They're pirates.

It's what I do.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

Are you a bounty hunter then?

[justicereigns]

Marine.

I work for justice, not money.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

Oh! I do that, too.

Sort of. Not quite the same, maybe, but close enough.

[justicereigns]

You do?

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

I'm part of the protection force for my city.

[justicereigns]

Oh, really? [Voice clearly perks with more interest.]

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[Oh ho, Okita knows how to get in with Smoker now. How interesting.]

Yes! We're the shogunate's special forces entrusted with the security of the capital city and protecting it from the rebels that are trying to overthrow the government.

[justicereigns]

[Justice types always.]

Shogunate, huh? What kind of government was it?

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

It is a government where the Emperor places his military and the command of his country into the hands of the Shogun, the highest ranking samurai in the country. The Shogun then distributes power of the smaller domains into the hands of his followers. Very militaristic in theory, but I don't think the Shogun has fought a war in a very long time. He leaves it to people like us.
