Backdated to the weekend Beach Party and Birthday Log! \o/
[Marco runs around setting everything up. There's platters of food laid out -- more than enough and some extra as a habit from dealing with Ace and 1600 pirates, a boombox with tons of music, beach volleyball set up, a campfire, and according to Selphie and Marco, fireworks for later. GO NUTS. There will be some threads set up, but you can make your own or do anything! Just remember if the thread gets wild, mark it as NSFW.]

You let him get away? I'm surprised at you, Kitten.

What did you two say?
no subject
I told him that it is not I that has misunderstood the meaning of nakama, but him. He lost that meaning long ago. [She put away her weapon and crossed her arms.] I also informed him that NO ONE will ever take away, nor ruin, what I have earned.
GO TO BED YOU
[Ruffles her hair softly, his own admiration shining through, but he gives a slightly rueful grin, almost a grimace.]
He was murdered by a nakama. He was the first one Teach betrayed us with. So it wouldn't surprise me that he's scared to death of such things. Even Namur, eh? After Teach did that, none of us knew what to do. We broke a little, we all took it really hard. Pops blamed himself for raising Teach, we all blamed ourselves for not knowing, for holding back, for trusting.
It's easy to say, "No regrets," and sometimes, to even mean it. But to truly never look backwards and wonder, "What if?" What if Espio hurts Toby? Don't I have no choice but to trust him anyway?
[He gets up and holds Grell tightly in his arms, burying his face in her hair and takes a deep breath. Just holds her close and enjoys holding her there.] I'd been with Teach from the start. He helped me fight for Fishman Island's freedom from slavers. He helped me avenge fallen comrades. But he was never as much my friend as Thatch. And looking back? Can I say it's because Thatch was more trustworthy? Can I say it's because I knew something was off about Teach and so I was leery of him? No. They were both nakama. Can I say it is my fault, that perhaps if I had befriended Teach more, he wouldn't have turned?
[He shakes his head, and blue eyes darken, wisdom that only comes with experience.] No. Teach held back on purpose. And we only have him to blame.
Ace took off to avenge Thatch though, and that we can blame ourselves for. He blamed himself, and we didn't stop him, couldn't save him. Namur said Thatch knows, he somehow heard about it, but I hope that idiot doesn't blame himself for it. It won't solve it.
Do me a favor, Kitten. Don't hold back. You needn't fight him with your chainsaw, you won't save him like that. He fights up here. [Taps her temple lightly.] He's brilliant, and my tactician. [There's something nice about calling Thatch his own tactician now. Always before Marco would said "our." His father's. The Garden's. But no, Thatch was his tactician, and one of his best friends in all of space, time, and multiple universes. Best friend. ] But we all have our weaknesses, eh? Nakama cover for each other's weaknesses. We cover each others' backs and form the best tightly unit so that even cracks like Teach turning around and stabbing one of us can't weaken us forever, okay?
[And with that he breaks the incredible seriousness of it all by grabbing Grell's ass and groping it. <3] I love you, Kitten.
Both of you, eh? Very much.
[HUG.]
I DO WHAT I WANT
She knew exactly how that feels. It's what made her so reluctant to trust.]
My apologies-- [ASDFGHJKL MARCO WHAT EVEN?! Grell's surprised at the sudden ass grab and hits his arm playfully. No, she doesn't mind, but how inappropriate to the atmosphere.] I love you, too, my firebird. [She wraps her arms around his waist, kissing his neck sofly.] I'll do my best to not maim him, but do not think I will use soft gloves. As family, I'll protect that until the end, no matter how much of a jerk he may be. [She nips at his ear idly, before simply nibbling on it.] I've also informed him that simply tolerating each other is not enough.
WELL OKAY THEN
Aye, simple tolerance isn't enough. But if he's being a jerk, that's a good sign. It means he actually does think of you as family close enough to trust with that. It's when he straight out ignores or avoids that I get really worried.
/o/
Thanks for the heads up, my love. You could have told me that earlier. [Continues to nibble.]

[Pets over the top of her head and under her chin, okay he might be turning a bit red now, gosh.]
no subject
[Grell does like when Marco blushes like that. It's so cute~! So she nuzzles his cheek affectionately.]
no subject
Thatch keeps me on my toes, taught me how to be human, still does, really. Izou helped me keep Thatch in line whenever he got too rowdy. Well, tried anyway.
Thatch is the brother most like me other than Ace. Because I am me because of Thatch. Or at least, I can show me because of him. Does that make any sense?
1/2 I FORGOT SOMETHING
no subject
Should I also thank him for you being a forgetful JERK?!
1/2
2/2
Ah.... n-no. Sorry, yoi. That's... all me. T-Time is hard and it kind of collides and --
[He wants to run! AHHH RUN MARCO RUN!!!!]
[He doesn't though. He wants to hide, but can't, and he debates switching into phoenix. He would too, if he could. But then he wouldn't be able to explain. So he gulps, chirps uneasily and just stays flushed and flustered.]
S-sorry. I didn't think he'd have the ring ready and Toby wasn't even here! I thought I'd have time to figure out how to explain it! I knew Espio wanted to ask instantly but I didn't think it'd be that fast! I didn't even think he'd have the ring that quickly! It took me four months to get your ring ready!
[Another chirp and he mumbles about in phoenix.]

Because he was able to help and spend time with a part of Toby I can't.

You owe me a full body massage. Tonight! In one hour! [Because getting something out of his punishment is better than not.] Also, talk to Espio about not waiting until the las minute!
[She's gonna go get herself a cosmo or something. Men!!]
