( graveyard: we're cursed..........3 )

[ since there's more of us now, let's set up a scene...ish. we're at the beach! hooray!! it's our government mandated party game!! hopefully everyone is going to be well behaved because law won't give two shits. he's already arranging this for some reason unknown to man. indulgences? indulgences....... everyone get your sins in. taps on watch???

of course there is booze because there is always booze. law does not perceive the meth. (if there is any.)

NOW!! EVERYONE. TWO TRUTHS & ONE LIE. ]

[ it's fine. he'll just wring it out again; it's a durable hat!! that said he'll look at steven's slap of the water and raise an eyebrow. hello? ]

Well, it happened and now look at the two of us. Dunked and drenched.

[ it's...kind of funny actually? not that he's super amused by it but he's getting there. moderately amused!! ]

[kokytos]

Correction, only one of us got "dunked", I just happened to drag you down with me because we were holding hands.

[ Excuse you. Ugh. But, he raises his brows. ]

But look at that, you're not falling over or anything from seasickness.

[nodo]

Just happened... You could have let go.

[ but then again he also could have voluntarily decided to not because of wanting to drag law down with him. ]

I'm not.

[ huh, like he knew about this but at the same time??? it's still a huge "huh". there's a bit of a bittersweet feeling to the moment. ]

...I don't think I should get too used to this.

[kokytos]

With how suddenly it happened? I don't think so.

[ But he'll splash his way over to Law, wading in thigh-high water... yeah, all his clothes are just completely stuck on him. Thanks for this, bitch. But he'll just pat him on the back. ]

Just because you let yourself enjoy a luxury for one day doesn't mean you're getting used to it.

Though, I think I'll just sit on the shore and wait for the Sun to dry me.

[nodo]

[ he could take some of that off?? they're at a beach; it's fine to be in a state of undress?? but steven should know how poorly law takes to the idea of luxury... it's like "why" and low key "don't go indulging in things you can't have more of" which is funny because hahaha.

either way— ]

Are you going to at least take some of that off so you'll dry sooner?

[kokytos]

I'll dry off just fine. I don't typically even wear short-sleeves, let alone be shirtless in public.

[ He only did it during trial, because, you know. It was a necessity to narrow down the pool of potential suspects. ]

If this was a request, then sorry but it's been denied.

[nodo]

[ ..... ]

I won't even ask.

[ and since i didn't pick/decide on what law was wearing i guess he was wearing at least a shirt and shorts since i refuse to make him as horny as he is elsewhere. ....that said i'm also having him remove his shirt because unlike SOME PEOPLE he has nothing to be shady about.

just a lot of tatts that everyone has seen plenty of by this point. ]

[kokytos]

[ HE'S NOT BEING SHADY ABOUT IT. SOME PEOPLE JUST AREN'T ALWAYS TITS OUT, GOD DAMN? But also you're fighting a losing battle Naru just give in. ]

Ask about what. [ A rhetorical, anyway, since he's making his way back to sand. ]

[nodo]

[ steven has no reason to not though??? also please do not remind me. this man is so objectified in canon that i do not know what the fuck to do with myself. also please give law some credit where its due. ]

Why you'd think it was a request.

[ it was a suggestion since. well. steven complained about having his clothes stuck to him?? and hello?? local man spends plenty of time by the ocean and knows better. not that you'd need that kind of life in the first place!! ]

[kokytos]

[ Literally basically all of his official art where the most bare-skinned he is is just his forearms are his reason??? ]

It's a joke, Law, ever heard of it? Or I guess I should call it teasing.

[nodo]

[ nightowe our tattoo lore.

also excuse you. he'll half-heartedly chuck his wet shirt towards steven. if it hits him then it hits him....if it doesn't then it also doesn't. goodbye shirt. ]

Shut up, the point still stands.

[kokytos]

[ It'll land halfway in his catch, halfway in his lap. He'll wring it out beside him, but he won't be returning this until Law comes and gets it himself.

He just shrugs! And makes a zip motion over his mouth. Alright Law! ]

[nodo]

[ HELLO??

HIS SHIRT??? ALSO DON'T BE SO CHEEKY WITH THAT REACTION. Un-fucking-believable. he'll stand in the water mildly offended. as if they haven't acted their age enough as it is. ]
