After Taste

[tapdancinskelly]

Oh god... god in heaven please help me!!

I... I... I was a... a...

... I have this terrible taste in my mouth almost like... bats.

What have I been saying to people?!?!

Oh god...

If anyone wants me... I'll be... crying in the closet... hiding in the closet... nowhere to be found.

I'm so sorry!!!

Ah! You've gone back to normal - thank goodness!

Yes it is good to have found a way out of my unending nightmare... I didn't say anything or do anything too badly to you I hope? I don't think I could ever forgive myself if I did.

[cute-cleaver.livejournal.com]

Ah, no. I could tell you weren't really in your right mind at the time, but it wasn't your fault, so it's fine. I forgive you.

Oh thank you! I certainly don't deserve it, but I'm so happy you and my friends are willing to give me a second chance. How can I possibly repay you? Would you like me to sing you a song? Or slip on a banana peel? I'm quite good at both of those things you know. Yohohoho!

[cute-cleaver.livejournal.com]

No! It's alright! Besides, that's what friends do, isn't it, isn't it? Forgive each other!

[tapdancinskelly.livejournal.com]

We're friends?! Why thank you! I consider you a friend too! Yohohoho!

[cute-cleaver.livejournal.com]

I think it's great to have to opportunity to meet so many different people, you're one of my first friends here! I hope to make many more.

I always think that it's fantastic to have lots of friends. You're never quite as rich as when you are rich in friends. Yohohoho!

[cute-cleaver.livejournal.com]

I couldn't agree more! Do you have a lot of friends here then?

[tapdancinskelly.livejournal.com]

Yes I do! I have my crew, my musical fans, Makar... some marines... It's hard to find people who aren't my friends to be honest! Yohohoho!

[cute-cleaver.livejournal.com]

That's a lot of people!

Your from this world, aren't you? Do you understand why all these people from other worlds have ended up here?

[tapdancinskelly.livejournal.com]

Yes I am from this world... Hmm perhaps that can be better explained with a song I wrote some time ago just for the occasion of welcoming new people.

Welcome to the Grand Line,
I hope you like your stay,
Everything will be fine,
Or at least that's what I say,

Oh here's a welcome to the Grand Line!
Where you can smell the sea brine!

Pirates tend to be drawn here,
Because of lots of gold,
So you could just live in fear,
Or you could try being bold!

Oh here's a welcome to the Grand Line!
Where you can smell the sea brine!

The Grand Line is a great place,
Though some just call it hell,
But those people are a disgrace,
To which we say 'Oh well'

Oh here's a welcome to the Grand Line!
Where you can smell the sea brine!

So if you are a cutpurse,
Or if you are a thief,
You are not in for the worse,
Unless you hit a reef,

Oh here's a welcome to the Grand Line!
Where you can smell the sea brine!

And if you are like most folk,
I'd say your out of luck,
Because this is not a joke,
You are quite very stuck,

Oh here's a welcome to the Grand Line!
Where you can smell the Sea Brine!

So why not enjoy your time here,
I tend to think it's nice,
So you can choose to ignore me,
Or follow my advice,

Oh here's a welcome to the Grand Line!
Where you can smell the Sea Brine!


Now I suppose that might not have entirely answered your question but the thing is that the Grand Line is a rather mysterious thing where almost anything can happen. So a rift in the space time continuum where people end up here from other worlds... isn't really all that odd for this place.
