[i like that it's specifically just ponta]

I'm not about planning. [obviously] But - that works, sure. I like this one? Unless you see a different one that you like better.

[digs around in her backpack...]

[hanaban]

Mm... None of these ships look like they have cannons. I want one with those.

[ a legitimate pirate ship!!!! not one of these boring industrial shipping vessels ]

[sharkgirl]

We could order a cannon on Amazoom. [

can you]

[hanaban]

Oh yeah! Isn't that just two tokens? I'm broke, so you'll have to spot me.

[ it's. it's a weapon? it probably counts ]

[sharkgirl]

Uhhhhh.

[:bunsweat:]

I don't have any tokens either. [sometimes you get tokens and spend all of them immediately on wonderballs every week?]

[hanaban]

[ same hat ]

Do you know anybody with a lot of tokens? We're cute. We can get them to pay.

[sharkgirl]

[thinking...]

Temenos?

[hanaban]

I don't like the idea of owing Temenos...

[ you know and he knows Temenos wouldn't buy them cannons for free, out of the goodness of his heart, ]

[sharkgirl]

[she hums.]

I don't know, I bet I could get him to buy me a cannon without owing him anything. I've got my ways. [she seems so unreasonably confident about this]

[hanaban]

You've got blackmail material.

[ that's got to be it, right? ]

[sharkgirl]

[the big grin on her face suggests that yes

yes she does]

[hanaban]

[ immediately drapes himself across Nimona's shoulders and lets himself be dead weight ]

I won't tell! I promise!!

[ he wants to know!!!! ]

[sharkgirl]

[aeugh]

No! [she does not even attempt to get him to get off of her, just sloooowly sinks down to the deck.] It's my blackmail, I got it fair and square!

[hanaban]

[ he's going to crush her if she doesn't tell!!!! ]

That doesn't mean you can't share! Nimonaaaaaaa...

[sharkgirl]

[sloooowly gets crushed]

I am a master of espionage I will not be bribed by you saying my name in a sad dejected way!

[hanaban]

Nimona.........

[ ;n; ]

[sharkgirl]

[she wriggles enough so that she can do this to his face]

[hanaban]

Bwehh--

[ his soft stretchy mochi cheeks!!


... he looks a little bit happy despite that, though. he knows better than anybody that this is just how you show your love ]

[sharkgirl]

[first of all this panel is cute, wtf. and second of all it is a show of love, and she's laughing a little as he makes the bweehhh sound.

she's never had... well, much of a family at all, but especially not siblings. ace did this to her a few times, and she's copying him - her this is my bratty brother emotion coming through strong.]

Defeated! [she says smugly from where she's like, flopped on the deck i guess]

[hanaban]

[ Hanako mumbles something muffled before he's able to get himself free, rubbing at his cheek a little. He always used to be the cheek puller, not the pulled, it was his big brother privilege. ]

This time, but I'll get you back!

[ lays down on his back, arms spreadeagled. like this, the sky and ocean blend together almost seamlessly. ]

... Tama was teaching me how to swim. Did you ever end up learning?

[sharkgirl]

[she sprawls out too, staring up at the sky.]

Was she? [she asks idly, with a little hum.] I can swim, yeah. Better when I'm not here, but I got Ace out of the lake fine before, so I can do it here too.

Why?

[hanaban]

Huh?

[ The only time he actually saw Nimona in the water was at the execution where she went in after Saya, and both of them had to be fished out afterwards. ]

You already know how to swim? Then why am I learning??

[sharkgirl]

[this is so funny she couldn't swim because she was heavily injured hanako!!!]

... Yeah? You thought I couldn't? [a beat.] Were you learning how to swim because you thought I couldn't?

[hanaban]

[ he was too busy squeezing the life out of her to notice he was just making her injuries worse!!! ]

Am I the only one left who doesn't know how to swim?!

[sharkgirl]

[she puts her hands over her mouth because she is trying SO hard not to laugh]

... Maybe? That depends on your definition of swimming! Are you saying you still can't?
