[hiken_ace]

Heh heh. Yeah... with them around, we know he's not gonna drown everyday!

[sailedfirst]

That's a huge relief, yeah. Now my only problem's you. [Rubbing his chin in thought.] I'm gonna have to work on my swimming more.

[hiken_ace]

Oi. I'll have you know I haven't even come close to drowning in a really long time. [He just got his ass kicked, thrown into Impel Down, had a war fought over him, and then took a punch of pure magma.

You need to work on more than your swimming.]

[sailedfirst]

Yeah, two months is a really long time. [DUDE. He doesn't even know those things yet. ;;

And you don't have to remind him. He's working his ass off training everyday, you know.]

[hiken_ace]

Oi, what's this two months crap? [He will someday. And keep training, then.]

[sailedfirst]

[Does he really need to remind you of that time you almost drowned to save Chopper?] ...Tch! Never mind. You know, you get as careless as Luffy sometimes. Just be careful!

[...Take your time, bro. He's not even sure he wants to hear the details. ;;]

[hiken_ace]

[... oh that. HE DIDN'T TELL ANYONE, FUCK, WHO SPILLED THE BEANS.] You say that like you're not!

[You'll have to hear them someday.]

[sailedfirst]

[Chill, man. No one did. He just guessed since you never got sick before and you're a fire guy now. What else could've made you sick like that, but being drenched/submerged in water? :|]

That's because I'm not! I'm careful all the time.

[hiken_ace]

[Sabo. Stop being smart, it's cheating.] Oh, that's rich. What about that time you and I fought those thugs in town? You didn't have to come and fight, so you got your ass kicked with me. Remember?

[sailedfirst]

[Oi. Using his brain isn't cheating.] Geez, Ace. Bringing that up again and again... I told you, I wasn't about to let you die on me like that, remember?! 'Course I'm gonna save your ass when you're in trouble.

[hiken_ace]

[Shhhh yes it is. And gosh, bro, stop embarrassing him.] Geez, you love to meddle.

[That smile says otherwise, though.]

[sailedfirst]

[No, never! You will feel his brotherly love, whether you want it or not.

And he's just going to laugh.] Well, if I haven't got dumbasses for brothers, maybe I wouldn't have to.

[hiken_ace]

[Gosh, fine!] You're a dumbass, too, and you know it.

[sailedfirst]

Heh, I never said I'm not!

[hiken_ace]

Luffy and I rubbed off on you, I guess.

[sailedfirst]

You guys did make it worse, but hey. Give some credit to my own dumbassery. [You wouldn't have been friends with him if he hasn't got it, right?]

[hiken_ace]

I'm flattered. But yeah, you were an idiot.

[sailedfirst]

I'll take that as a compliment!

[hiken_ace]

[That just makes Ace laugh.] Good! Being an idiot's important. [... how late it is now? Ace cranes his neck to see that it's... 1 am. Oh. Well.] It's pretty late. Do you wanna try getting some sleep?

[sailedfirst]

If you wanna tell me to shut up, you could've just said so. But yeah, we could try... [Try being the keyword. After all, even if they might've distracted themselves a bit, Sabo's still well aware they're by themselves now. He's feeling sleepy, but he doesn't want to fall asleep and let Ace brood by himself.]

[hiken_ace]

Nah, I like talking to you. A lot. [Because ten years of not hearing your voice hurts. He smiles hopefully at him.] Do you want me to make anything for breakfast later on?

[sailedfirst]

Ahaha, really?! I remember you hitting me a lot for being too chatty. [Perking up even more because food.] Pancakes are nice! And cereal and bacon and eggs!

[hiken_ace]

You can talk as much as you want now. [If not just to prove to him that you're still here and alive. At Sabo's happiness, he just laughs.] That's a pretty tall order, y'know! But I think I can manage to make that much.

[He lets out a long yawn.] What do you say we try some sleep first, though? Unless you want me to fall asleep while I'm cooking it.

[sailedfirst]

I hope that's true... [Because there's so much he wants to talk about, but still can't find the words to them.But that conversation's for another time. He grins happily.] I can help. I make a pretty good sunny side up, I'll have you know.

Hah, you fall asleep all the time anyway. [But he stretches on his back and closes his eyes.] You better not burn my bacon.

[hiken_ace]

You bet it is. [Just give him a sec, he's gonna go grab that giant tent of a coat his Pops wore and throw it over the two of them. Pops' coat makes everything better.] Heheh, all right, feel free to help.

Oi, Luffy does, too. [Ace gets comfy under the coat and closes his eyes, too.] I won't, geez. Have a little faith.
