Interlude: Treating an injured bear and kangaroo

"KERSHISHISHI... and that's why knock knock jokes are so funny." Sitting down, the twenty foot tall giant was still towered at the not so unincredible height of eight feet above the earth and before him lay two packages- a kangaroo and a bear, only it was difficult to tell they had once been a kangaroo and a bear. Wrapped in mushroom bandages as they were (rather liberally, Gog had always been a proponent of better more than less) they would probably become easy pickings for the first truly large creature carnivore that could rip through the bandages.

Getting up and dusting his hands Gog realized that he had lost track of the two humans that had been- rather suspiciously too- right next to the poor animals just as he had discovered them. They had claimed ignorance... but... as he re-wound the whole event in his head...

A lightbulb went off over his head.

"Oh!" He said brightly. "They were hurt as well! I better go treat them!"

The lightbulb cracked.

"Well, Joey, Poo-bear, I've got to go now." The creatures wiggled helplessly, simultaneously frightened and relieved. "It's been nice talking to you, but as a doctor I *must* go and save them. GOGAGOGAGOGAGOG..." He roared, imitating a super-hero he had once seen at a play he stampeded through the forest imagining a billowing cape, a new world and... laughter.

"KERSHISHISHISHISHI..."

"Bloody hell! Is there anything here but animals?" Charlow avoided another rabbit as she walked through the forest pushing branches to the side. She came to the island in hopes of finding a pirate crew. Instead she got a crapload of animals and a boring town."Tch I'm gettin pissed. Better take a nap to cool off or I might end up cutting trees down to vent." Charlow sat down and leaned against a tree, kicking her boots off.

She pulled out the flask of rum she always kept on her and took a swig. She was lulled into a peaceful sleep. Correction she was lulled into a peaceful sleep for a few seconds. Soon after she dozed off a loud "KERSHISHISHISHISHI!" could be heard through the forest."What the hell?" Charlow looked up with weary eyes at a massive shadow heading towards her."Ah wait it's just a massive giant............kuso." Charlow got up on her barefeet immedaitely and had her hands at her swords."Hey stop in the name of my bad-a** sword skills!"
Charlow De Bon:"Ya say you're family is being held hostage?!....Okay what's your point?"

As almost everyone knows little kids are noisy. Slightly less people know that this is actually not because of their incredible vocal capacity but simply because of their mentality- a four year-old is a loud four year-old because (s)he thinks like a four year old.

Gog, was a fourty-three year old giant. But this didn't stop him from thinking like four year-old human child every once in a while.

Thus he was terrifyingly loud as he played super-man. Because of this- or maybe because of the human's voice he only heard a few words out of the sentence she spoke. While certain things do not bear repeating, the words 'hey', 'bad' and 'sword skills' were garbled and didn't quite make it past Gog's eardrums. He was, therefore, quite understandably confused. That didn't stop him

"KERSHISHISHI... sorry, but I'm on an important mission!" Gog announced cheerfully to the relatively tiny human female. "There are patients that need treatment!" He extended a giant hand, "But you can come along if you wish!"

OOC: If she does decide to come along, it'll be a shoulder-ride. You have permission to role-play that. ^^

Charlow laughed outloud at the behavior of the massive giant."Here I was expecting a response like "Fee Fi Fum! I'll grind you bone into dust and sprinkle it in my tomato soup!". Charlow looked him over and thought to herself for a bit. He was a huge giant who she never met, with what looked like the mental capacity of a 4 yr-old.Not to mention he had the strength to hit her so hard ,her bones will shatter upon impact. But he was damn funny and that's all Charlow needed."All right big boy! I think i'll come along. Got nothing better to do."

Gog put his hand out and Charlow jumped on, grabbing her boots too. Mog then place her on his shoulder and Charlow settled in."Wow riding on a giant. Wait till Muramasa hears about his one." Charlow looked at the giant before smiling slightly."The name's Charlow De Bon." She spoke her name with much more accent. She liked saying her name, it was the only thing she didn't hate about her family.

"Tomatoes? Ick ick ick," the giant said as he tried to adjust to having the sensation of someone riding on his shoulder again. It had almost been... what, twenty-five years? Twenty-six? "I'm a mushroom giant myself." Then he laughed again, letting it bellow out before introducing himself as well. He was happy that she could laugh. Many of the sword-bearers he met were awfully... morose. He never knew why either.

"I'm Gog N. Magog," he said, narrowly avoiding a small tree that really had no business growing right there in front of him. It should have been more careful. The animals, thankfully enough, had figured out that they shouldn't be within two hundred meters of a giant playing super-man. "Nice to meet you, Charlow De Bon."

He sounded the name out slowly, as if it were of some foreign language. In reality he did that with all names, trying to engrave them in his memory but not many knew that. He usually took the time to do his 'sounding-of-names' out of earshot but he suspected he might learn more names before the day was done and didn't want to get mixed up. That last marine was NOT a nice person. All he had done was call him... a different name.

"So, what are you doing on this island? Not a lot of things for a swordsm-swordswoman to do. It's a nice place. KERSHISHISHI!"

The forest…

To some, it was a fun outing; perfect place to go play or explore. With its vast meandering paths and twisting grassy intersections, it could always attract the happy go lucky traveler or unattended child into its oh so welcoming depths. For others, it was a nice hiding place- Wanna dodge the five oh? Had a debt you still haven’t paid? Come on in and hide out for a few weeks, months… hell there were even stories of it being the home to many a legendary hero for years on end.

Course, the ‘home’ aspect of it was what attracted Sean to this place.

“Hehehe…what a nice change of scenery…” He must’ve stood out, especially in this green landscape. He was smiling serenely, relaxed with these new surroundings. That pirate ship had been no fun at all… He knew their kind was bad, but good heavens, those had no manners at all… Really, what kind of a way was that to treat a guest, brandishing swords at him? Well, he had taken care of that pretty well…

So here he was, on…. Ikimo island was it? Really wasn’t in his plans to stop here… oh well. Until he found a way to move on, it was a nice way to occupy his time. And he always did like looking at islands… The inhabitants there were always interesting to get to know…

“Hello there, Usagi-chan…” He smiled, bending over to pet the little rabbit in front of him. ‘I wonder how they survive out here… Rabbits are social creatures, right? I wonder how their civilizations are set... Perhaps they’re not all that different from us humans…’ He scratched the rabbit behind the ears as he pondered; the rabbit responding by thumping its leg in a blissful euphoria… A growl, however, caused it to jet out of Sean’s grip as it bounded off to wherever cottontails went to take refuge….

“That wasn’t very nice…” Sean said, his face grim. The wolf paid his words no mind… really, what did it care what some skinny pale human had to say? Its breakfast had just gotten away… Pale human, huh? Yum…perhaps the other white meat was just as good.

Sean raised an eyebrow as the wolf’s gaze set on him. What a funny little wolf, it couldn’t really be considering THAT, could it?

“Hehehe…” Sean chuckled softly at the wolf’s antics. It had begun to circle him, drool sliding out of its mouth in wet, gooey, oversized drops.

“You really don’t want to do that…” Sean warned, his smile fading. Eh…like everything else, the wolf didn’t listen. It leaned back on its hind legs and jetted forward, jaws agape, aiming for him…

“If that’s how its gotta be…” The anthropologist sighed and turned away… A gust of white seemed to exude from him and…

“Well, that put a damper on my day…” Sean said aloud, having continued his walk through the woods…

“Hmm…What’s up?” This was certainly strange… All the little critters around him seem to be heading in the direction he was walking towards. Either there was some big forest critter meeting he didn’t know about… or…

Sean grabbed the strap of his book bag and broke into a little jog. This had attracted his interest alright… What could be so darn intimidating-

“Oh…That’s it…” He said, blinking. Talk about surprising… Here was a giant… walking around with… a little girl on his shoulders? He watched the two for a while… He seemed strangely docile and childish even; her, happy to meet a new companion. No threat, really?

“I didn’t know giants traveled all the way out here in the East Blue…” He said, stopping within view, making sure to keep his distance. He didn’t feel like getting stepped on, not today… “What would bring anyone all the way out here?”

Gog had just finished asking his new companion- Charlow De Bon- why she was here when he spotted yet another new arrival. Well, it wasn't so much spot as it was 'smell.' There was a crispness in the air that he hadn't smelled before, and though it had been particularly violent just a moment before- almost causing him to give up on his quest to look for the injured strangers and hunt for the rare ice shrooms that must be hiding around here- it had died off... and then slowly gotten stronger. He wasn't all that surprised when he heard someone say:

“I didn’t know giants traveled all the way out here in the East Blue…”

Gog stopped, turning around- and then, since his single step had taken him fairly far away from the stranger, he took a tentative step forwards. Most people that wanted to talk to giants either got really close to them or used megaphone thingamagiggers, since this guy was using neither Gog would treat him as he would a rare, exotic mushroom: carefully.

“What would bring anyone all the way out here?”

The question, so close to the one he had just asked Charlow, almost made him laugh out loud. Actually, after a moment of trying to keep it in, it did. He tried to lower the volume so as not to make Charlow's ears bleed. "KERSHISHISHI... why is anyone here? To relax, to live, to enjoy! Oh! And to get from here to... errr..." pointing vaguely towards the town, "there! I have a mission I must complete!"

"Meh! I was lookin for a crew but apparently there aren't any around here." Charlow raised an eyebrow at the new individual and looked him over. She laughed again at Gog's behavior and gave a lazy wave towards the newcomer."Yo!What I'm out here for is my buisness and mine alone." She assumed that he wasn't a threat though that could've been her arrogance talking.

Her hand reached for her flask and stopped at her sword. Mitsuti-Chishio Oni was getting jittery, violent swords like her tended to do that. The other was as calm and serene as ever. She moved her hand from the swords to her flask of rum and took a long gulp. She wiped her mouth and burped slightly. She looked at Gog and wondered whether he was drinking man..or drinking giant."Hey Gog ya want some? Rum is always better shared with a friend."

“To relax, huh? That’s a good answer…”

‘Well, he’s certainly not a threat…’ Sean quickly analyzed. This giant was just too big and friendly to really be a threat. Still, you can’t be too careful… But on the other hand, this was a giant. Giants came from Elbaf, beyond this Blue, in the Grand Line itself. This guy could be a great vessel of information. He was no expert on giants, but this one seemed old enough, despite his attitude. A wolfish grin seemed to perk up on Sean’s face. Let’s hope his intentions were pure… But this could be his only clue on this island…

“Oh…you have a mission? A pair on a quest- very valiant…” He said, laughing. “So you saying there’s a town nearby…” Well, that was a good thing… but…

Yes, very interesting…if this town served no purpose to him, at least he could take advantage of the mayhem this giant would surely cause… Sure, he wouldn’t be pillaging, but surely he’d cause a nice enough ruckus for him?

It was the girl’s response that popped Sean’s bubble, bringing him back to reality. She had responded predictable enough… She could be useful too.

An idea popped in his head… That was always good.

“Oh, Mr.Gog, was it? Maybe you could help me out? Surely you see how much bigger than me you are? That village may just be a few steps away for you, but it’ll take me forever and a day to get there. You don’t think you could take me along with you? I’d really appreciate it…I’ll even help you with your little mission!” Sean smiled, waving while he still had their attention…half of it anyways…

OOC: He's acting... not like himself. Blame it on the rum! On the rum! Gog's usually far smarter. Or at least semi-intelligent.

IC:

"KERSHISHISHI... why not?" The giant rumbled accepting the rum. He stuck out his tongue and waited for Charlow to pour some on it.

It was thus like such he listened to... ummm... the new person. The new talkative person. Privately (lords be praised) he christened the new arrival: Mr. TalksALot and imagined him having all sorts of adventures with Mrs. TalksALot and TalksALot Jr. He was only half listening to the mumbling (far more concentrated on getting every drop of liquor into him- it was challenging, sometimes. Dratted humans never bothered to make anything giant sized. It was annoying sometimes) that the new arrival was making though he did notice that this one could laugh as well! Excellent... he had this wonderful new joke in store... not a knock, knock joke, sadly enough... but it was a good one.

He giggled, just thinking about it. His name (and some good, fine rum) brought him back to reality.

“Oh, Mr.Gog, was it? Maybe you could help me out?"

He would be the first to admit that this was the first human to ever Ask him for a ride when he wasn't part of the circus. Course' this was also the first human to ever see him with another human on his shoulder. He was slightly peeved at the man's patronizing tone (like he couldn't tell. Hmpf. Silly humans always thought they were so... Oooo, was that a hint of caramel in the rum? Good stuff.) but quickly forgot about it as he was distracted by more important matters.

He came back to reality in time for a "I'll even help you out with your little mission!"

Gog laughed, "You're a funny one, Mr. TalksA... errr... Mr. I-don't-know-your-name-quite-yet." He extended a giant palm. "Of course you can. But quick, we must hurry for we are off... to save the woooooorld!"

The rum was starting to get to him, and though no one knew it, he already had his own background music in his head blaring at full blast with "Gogagogagogagog" being the general refrain.

Charlow smiled happily at Gog as she started pouring rum onto Gog's rather large tongue. She silently wondered exactly how in the world, he found a proper container for his drinks? Did her sip the water out a of a lake and then fill it with rum? While wondering this she payed little to no attention to what Sean was saying to them. She did overhear him asking for a ride to the villiage.

She looked at him intently for a few minutes like as if she was trying to decipher something. Her questioning face was soon reaplaced with one of indifference as she took another siwg of rum."Meh ya might as well come on. It would be foolish ta say there ain't any space left up here." Charlow placed her hand on her swords and looked forward in the direction of the town.

Bingo! He’d earned, at least for now, the giant’s help. Sean smiled in gratitude as Gog placed a massive hand down to his level. Looks like he’d get there in no time.

“Thank you very much.” He said, boarding the giant’s palm, steadying himself against the thumb. Maybe he should be a bit more worried, considering he seemed to be getting more and more disorientated as he drank- Who knew so little alcohol could affect him so fast? Zero tolerance, eh?

“My name is Sean, pleased to meet you both.” He said, his eyes directed straight ahead. Hmm, so the giant was right… Well, if he was drunk or not, a giant’s very presence would cause more than enough mayhem for him to enter that town safely… Then he could ditch both Gog and the loudmouthed girl and be on his-

Sean’s plotting was cut short by an extremely large yelp from somewhere nearby, muffled split seconds after being uttered. Curiously enough, it seemed to come from the same direction Sean had originally approached… How strange…


Meanwhile, in our trio’s destination-

“Choji! Choji!” The girl’s yells echoed through the empty forest. She couldn’t have been more than twelve year old, standing at the entrance of the town. Looking around anxiously, she seemed to be searching for whoever this Choji person was.

“Choki, its lunch time! Oh…where could he be? He’s never stayed out this long be-” the girl was cut off by the shout of another person.

“Miss Shari! There you are!” A tiny … What the hell was this? It looked like a huge trembling mass of white hair. Little more than two feet tall, it waddled up to Shari on two little red shoes. How could someone take something so comedic looking seriously?

“Oh… its you…” Shari said, turning around to look at the tiny white thing.

“Shari, quickly come with me! There’s a threat to our civilization!”

‘What a drama queen…’ “What is it?” Shari began to question, but a cane appeared from within the bundle, latched around her wrist and proceeded to drag her along with the bundle.

Being a large, loud and ever-so-slightly drunk giant, Gog heard none of this 'yelping' and concentrated instead on moving. Forwards. In a straight line. Towards. The. City. Though he hadn't 'stumbled' (being a former circus member, it would be a crying shame if he ever admitted that he had 'stumbled') the number of trees managing to get in his way were increasing.

Oh well, at least the music was getting better. Gogagogagog had a nice ring to it, but got boring quickly.

"Shi!" He hiccuped. "Anyone want to hear a good joke?" Not waiting for an answer he started off with:

"So what happens to pigs when they get hurt?"
