Wafer D. Kite - Ready to eat? Not now you aren't!

---

Just like that, the crew was surrounded by clear skies and deep blue water. He smiled as he released his grip on the newly fixed crossbeam of the mast and sat up. He took a breath as he untied himself and look out over the sea surrounding them. The Grand Line. In just the short period of time he'd seen so many new things, in just the crew itself. And now, who knows what he might see or find. He took a second to stand up and took another deep breath. "WE MADE IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!!!!!!" Kite's excitement was very clear in the tone and sound of his shout. He couldn't help in voicing his happiness. This was something he'd dreamed of for ages. The only thing that could make this better was sailing the rest of the world on a ship of his own design. He walked to the center and placed his hand on the mast.

"Even if the best I get is being allowed to keep you running, I'll push you to travel the world." Kite had a dream. He wanted to fulfill it, but it wasn't his place to make such a decision anymore. It was Captain Boone's. And a portion of a dream for a family, that was something he was willing to trade. "And I'll get back to mom safe and sound." He concluded his miniature promise to himself before using the rope he's previously tied himself to the mast with to descend.

Once he reached the deck he was met by Bonesword as Boone set up what was essentially a lunch time meal with the crew they'd almost hit. "Aha, right, I guess I did kind of come out of nowhere." He chuckled at the comment about proving himself. "BUT! Since we're together now we should totally get to know each other more. Greahahahahahha! After all you can't be a family if you don't know each other." It didn't hurt that he thought everyone was cool as all fuck. "And don't worry. I'll handle the anchor," he said with a small smile as he turned and walked to anchor the ship as per the Captain's orders and Bonesword's request.

As soon as the anchor was in place and the ship was set still in place he turned and clapped his hands together. "Greahahaha! Time to eat! I am-" It was at this moment that Slick burst through the deck of the ship. Kite was dumbfounded. He didn't know how to react. That is, until it finally hit him. This was something else he had to fix. And even more than that, he had to inspect below deck for damage. Having survived Reverse Mountain didn't mean a thing if the ship sank while they ate. Even worse if it was literally the second they'd reached the Grand Line.

"C-captain..." Kite began in a dejected tone, barely speaking up loud enough to be heard. "I think I'll stay behind to make sure I clean up the mess... Slick..." he paused. Was anybody gonna stop him? This most certainly wasn't good. Even so, he began to get to work on his fixing of the ship. He had his pride as a shipwright if nothing else at this moment.

Zenoram and Zero

After all was said and done Zero had left the guild. Maybe it was the focus on getting ready, or the need to get something in his stomach after his last job. Perhaps it was letting Zenoram take over to get them home and to pack accordingly, but they'd just narrowly missed Karn and Mithera, if they'd even stopped by the guild. Still, the two had gathered a few things: food, a change of clothes and a few other things the two could easily carry in a single bag on their person. Zero took a back seat this time around at least until they reached what appeared to be the boat.

Okay, here we are. Zenoram smiled as he spoke to Zero within the confines of their mind.
Geez, we could have been late.
I was paying attention to the time.
You were in the showered for like an 30 minutes.
We were so dirty!
Wait...
And you never clean right.
I'm gonna regret this, but stop...
What?

Zenoram was pulled back as Zero took control. It was a fucking boat. Hurray. He hadn't been comfortable on one of these in years. Still, that wasn't it. He had felt something. Right now, he was smelling something though. It was as he thought. He hadn't been able to hear or smell before as the people gathered. Zenoram had been just on time, but even resting in their mind, he could feel the magic. Something was odd about it, but he'd felt Karn's. He was better at picking up on these things than Zenoram, even if only slightly, but in order to know he had to use his nose. That was Karn. And Mithera was here.

REALLY?!
Ow... Zero winced. Fuck... Yes, it's them. Maybe.
What do you mean maybe?
There's something different. It has been a long time.

Without another word Zenoram regained control running up onto the ship. Zero directed him and in his excited he forgot to brace himself. However, as he stepped onto the ship reality hit. He groaned. The rocking of the boat was... Unpleasant. He hated it even if he never got hit as hard as Zero. It would only get worse once they were on their way. "I hate this," the young man groaned as he continued, albeit more slowly. Zenoram's lack of access to the enhanced senses and physical abilities of the Dragon Slayer magic was a bit part of this. It was after all due to the synchronization between the large gap of a human's semicircular canals and a Dragon's visual acuity. Thus, unless the vehicle is specially designed to accommodate Dragon Slayers, or if they were to believe that the transportation was more of an ally than a vehicle, they would almost definitely experience motion sickness.

Zenoram's lack of connection to these effects of the magic, as strange as it was left him at a far less disadvantage to it all as opposed to Zero. Still, as he moved and Karn, or rather Edarn, came into view a bright happy smile plastered onto his face. That was until he saw Ferrin.

Ugh... This guy. Zero thought.
IT'S KARN!
What's he...

Before Zero could further question what Ferrin was doing, Zenoram had managed to speed up into a sort of jog. "KAR," he paused a bit as he brushed past Ferin, a sudden heavier rock in the ship also helping to break his voice, "N!" It was drawn out, but still continued to a finish as he wrapped his arms around Karn's body, unaware of the face that somebody else was currently in charge of the body. Just off to the side {I think} was the sleeping Mithera, though as far as Zero and Zenoram knew Mithera was no human. The scent was similar. In all honesty, the two just assumed she was in a smaller dragonic form and hidden somewhere on Karn's person. That was all either could think up, although Zero didn't think much about it at all.

"And what the fuck do you mean a flimsy..." Zero took over to turn to glare at Ferrin for a moment only to be forced back.

"Shhh Zero. Hugging Karn." Zenoram smiled happily.

"This fucker just had out friend up at sword point!" Zero retorted.

"I thought he wasn't your friend." Zenoram grinned as he tightened his hold on who he thought was Karn and grinned.
Shut up.

Arkos sighed at the responses given to him by the presumed locals before he heard Glaceo's voice ring in his ears. It'd been kept set fairly low. This was clearly more the Arcosian's forte than it was the Saiyan's. He took a breath, making sure not to move in any way that might be threatening or act in such a way that he would be attacked. This was especially necessary as he could not attack head on this being whose power could not be read by the scouter. He contemplated for a moment. Still, before he could answer himself Glaceo once again spoke to tell him what to do.

"A business relationship between this world and the Planet Trade Organization would be useful to all parties," he paraphrased the words of his leader. There was a reason for this. First, it would be feel more natural for him. Second, he wouldn't seem as though he were simply relaying orders. Nobody could trust a speaker who seemed like he wasn't able to act by his own wishes. "Because of that, if my allies and I can act on behalf of the planet in exchange for access to the resources we would be able to avoid anything unnecessary."

Arkos's face remained calm, unlike many others from the PTO, especially those of the GFA, who would take this moment to threaten the people. Even if that was what these two individuals assumed was his intent, it wasn't. Hopefully, thanks to his lack of change in demeanor and his calm facial expression would help convey just that.

"So, can you tell us more about the planet?"

Wafer D. Kite - Embarrassment and death defying stunts! Good luck Kite!

---

Kite had begun his preparation thinking they could somehow easily handle the challenge that had appeared before them. Reverse Mountain, however, was an obstacle ready to break down the spirit of any pirate not prepared to commit their lives to their dreams. He realized this quickly as the violent current pulled the Rum Runner in and jerks him back.

"Shit!" He yelped as he grabbed hold of the rail of the ship and held himself in place. Once he'd adjusted he began moving again. The sails had been pulled down and the ship stabilized, but soon a chunk of the mast's crossbeam was taken. This helped in part to throw off the balance once again. Then they lost a part of the hull. "Fuck..." He seemed to complain though the smile on his showed off everything but fear. He was excited. This was part of what he'd dreamed of. He'd never thought of the journey to freedom and the life of a pirate as simple and devoid of danger. So, he sprung into action.

Bonesword had created wood which he picked up. The amount was probably more than most people would be able to carry in one trip. Most normal people anyway. He had been tasked with keeping the ship moving. Besides, years of work, lifting, building and repaired had helped build a considerable amount of muscle. He began first by patching the areas that had been torn away. He grinned as he hammered the planks into place and covered the holes to avoid unnecessary water from getting in. It'd taken a few minutes, but it was still faster than the average shipwright would have handled it.

"Okay, that's done now..." He rushed because to the deck. He'd grabbed himself a rope, but he'd remembered hearing something earlier. Something about milk. He ran to the kitchen and grabbed all he could of the stuff before rushing out and to Bonesword. He hadn't paid much attention to anything else he was so focused on everything going on. "Here!" He called out as he skidded to a stop before the kid and threw the milk from the bucket onto him. It wouldn't be for a few that he'd notice the cup that'd likely be placed by Lilliana in front of him. "Oh..." Maybe the kid didn't need to be covered in milk, but drink it. Well that's embarrassing... He thought before the sight caught his eye.

"Holy shit..." The ship was on a collision course, but the little bone boy and Lilliana were fast at work to try and avoid it. But how could he... He stopped and shook his head. "The mast." He said simply. He couldn't just gawk at them all. This was a pirate crew. Still he'd heard the captains orders, but he couldn't follow them. "Bonesword, I need you to create a stump of a tree out of the broken end of the mast. It'll be a temporary fix, but I'll be able to fix the ropes and cables back so we can have better control of the sails." He explained quickly as he checked to make sure the cup was filled.

Without another word and hopefully sparing him of his own embarrassment he ran to the mast. He wraped the rope he'd grabbed around himself and, somewhat loosely, around the mast itself. He could at least climb with less fear of the wind and speed knocking him off. He began to climb watching as the "extra wood" formed. Hell yeah. He smirked as he made his way up to it and got to work driving in spaces he could loop the ropes through and among other things. Once he'd fixed those, hopefully they would hold until they were down the mountain.

Now, he was slowly making his way along the mast. He was pulling up, closing and fastening the sails. There would, hopefully, be less wind propulsion and help slow the ship further to avoid the collision. Unfortunately, he would need to hold on for dear life now, as getting up had already been enough of a challenge and getting down... Yeah That's gonna be a problem. He thought as he resigned himself to stand down and watch the others at work, particularly Lilliana, who's equipment was a technological marvel and he wanted to know more.

Okay, so here's a question - how far into fanon are we allowed to go? Because there's some canon stuff that... really doesn't make sense, and some fanfiction stuff (principally Embers-derived, I will admit) that really does.

Principally, I'm thinking:

• Lavabending should be equally possible with fire or earth, and should require the user to study the bending forms of the element they don't have, and possibly water as well (earth that's hot like fire and flows (somewhat) like (really thick, sometimes, depending on type) water.)
• Similarly, there should be other cross-element specialisations; a firebender might learn to bend heat by studying airbending, hot water (more specifically the 'fire' in hot water, but effectively) by studying waterbending, or steam by studying both, just as a waterbender might learn mudbending from studying earth or an airbender stormbending (as in genuine rain-thunder-and-lightning storms, not just huge winds) from water and fire.
• Active chi use should be for more than just bending and mystical extrasensory perception; high-level warriors like Piandao, for example, defeating a hundred men or fighting blindfolded, should be active chi users. Likewise, strong benders should be capable of enhancing their physical power with chi, or even creating a surge in the power of their bending, at the cost of stamina.

Which ties into my (firebender) character sheet thusly:
Skill classification (as in difficulty/advanced-ness) goes universal/novice/apprentice/journeyman/expert/master
Skill level (as in how good you are) goes untrained/novice/apprentice/journeyman/expert/master

There are seven Universal skills: Inner Fire (how powerful your flame is, and some incidental bonuses like not freezing), Surging Breath (firebender chi use), Mountain Style (firebending technique one, aggressive), Dragon Style (firebending technique two, defensive), and then Study of Earth, Study of Water, and Study of Air; so, for example, if my firebender progressed to Expert Inner Fire, Expert Study of Water and Expert Mountain Style (or Master Dragon Style), he could learn Lightningbending and Lightning Redirection, or Controlled Lightningbending at Mastery.

A Waterbender, alternatively, might have Inner Flow, Surging Tide, Ocean Style and Moon Style, and then Study of Earth, Fire and Air.

Obviously this is fairly complicated, but I like to have a bit of a structure to work with. Is this all okay, or do I need to adhere to canon rules?

EDIT: Also, this would, double obviously, be a lot of work, it's not the sort of thing anyone can just breeze through. I'm thinking long-term here, mostly.

@Rokoran

WOAH DUDE!
This is a little complication, but like really cool.
I might be like... Behind on info, but is that stuff all legit canon names for things or did you make some of it up? I kind wanted a fire bender, but now idk if I could compete lol Still really cool though

Hey! So I'm really interested in and love Avatar. I know you have a lot of people, so I wouldn't wanna add extra pressure. Still, I figured I could throw my hat in the ring.

It was quiet. It was so quiet it was awkward. Knowing her... She'll find a way to make it more awkward. And almost as if on cue, Ringo spoke. "Gah!" He threw his hands in the air in annoyance. "Date this and a date that! What is it with you guys?!" He spoke referring to his father and his friend. "It's not a big deal. I mean, we've been friends forever. We're just..." He stopped as she moved on quickly.

"Y-yeah... Thanks." A light blush spread across his face at his own outburst and lack of cool as he would probably put it. He sighed and shook his head. "Anyway. Big day huh?" His flushed face transitioned to a grin of glee. "Got the box and everything." He turned to face Ringo, walking backwards and somehow avoiding anything he might have walked into perfectly. If she looked close enough she might see the slight shine in his eyes, caused partially due to the shift in lighting and the contact lenses in his eyes. "We should stopped by one of the training rooms before we head out though."

There was a small pause as Mamoru stopped walking. "Maybe we can go at it for a bit. A light spar," he said softly as he turned to face a door. He began to pull his bag off his back and turned the handle opening it calmly. "Plus... I wanna give you something and that jerk of an old man I call dad would've never let it go." He said with a small laugh as he walked in.

The small group of rebels have begun their meeting. It seems that they cannot decide on what to do. As this is going on the ruler of Balsora has begun his day. A young, idealistic man with hopes of neutrality. His body was embroidered in dark robes, a slight gleam coming from his skin, if you could even call it that. He was encased in an armor fusing to his body. It increased his power in an unnatural way, but it'd been tailor made for him. His clan had worked in developing this bio-organic exoskeleton that would enhance him in almost every possible way. Still, that had come before there fall. It was a last chance, and though it failed during the war, it succeeded in ending it.

Meanwhile, far off in the galaxy laid the planet Kowloon. It was a small planet with little resources left after having been farmed for years by the tyrannical rulers of the PTO, particular by that of the galactic Frieza Army. Kept under the rule of the GFA it has become the home of the newest budding rebellion against them. These once proud and nomadic warrior people were once at one with nature. However, they have learned to adapt and grow stronger to survive the disease and violence brought by Frieza's army as it was colonized. Because of this, they have been corrupted.

And so a man stood above his people. "The time has come for war. Some of us may day, but what are a few death to save our people and rid us of the menace that is the Frieza?!" He roared above the crowd who in turn cheered for his words, a collective war cry building as they steeled themselves for the coming battle.

"Remember! We must fight in order to protect the elders as they call forth our savior!" The apparent leader screamed above the shouts and cheers. Behind the crowd was a large cavern wherein the elders who'd once served as shamans to connect them to the land. They were cleansing themselves as best as they could, preparing the space for the ceremony. The man who would head the charge into battle as the forces approached growl, a dark look in his eyes. "Ready yourselves, for the time comes."

Arkos listened closely to the words of his comrade and commander. He sighed as he lifted his hand and pressed it to his scouter. He hit a button and glanced around once more. "What do you mean?" He asked Satay before hearing Glaceo chime in. He stayed silent for a moment before sighing as the brief discussion finished. How could he have been compromised? He was scouting. He was going to make sure they could land without it becoming an active war zone. He wasn't coming to attack. Not yet anyway. Still, he'd never say that to Glaceo. He contemplated what to do. If Satay was right, this could be somewhat fortuitous. He could potentially meet with a native of the planet and get some information. Plus, that would provide an idea of whether or not they would be hostile. Not necessarily to the PTO as a whole, but to his group in particular. Well, Glaceo's group. Er... Lord Frieza's.

The Saiyan took a breath and hummed in thought before sighing and turning to the side. "Glaceo sir," he paused for a moment as he turned in the direction Satay had given and used his scouter. A weaker power level. It wasn't tiny like many he'd seen, but still not huge. If there was another being there, he couldn't see it. "I'm going to engage." He finally finished the thought. "If there is any information to be gained I will attempt to acquire it." Arkos began to walk in the direction calmly, making no sudden move or aim for attack. "Additionally, if they are natives I may be able to negotiate a meeting with a leader." He knew how much Glaceo loved his diplomacy. It was a win-win whether it resulted in discussion or combat.

Once Arkos got close enough he would clear his throat. "Are you natives of this planet?" He asked in a rather cut and dry manner. He wasn't one to mince words when it came to duty. This was not a leisurely stroll, nor was it a thrilling battle. Maybe if it were he might have cracked a smile. "I'm looking for information. Any you can provide I'm sure will be useful." He felt it best to speak in a manner that was nonthreatening all the same. After all, moving in a fit of idiocy could very well get the Saiyan killed. And that was one thing he'd learned all to well the importance of back home.

Wafer D. Kite - Do your best Kite! And then do better!

At the behest of Captain Boone, Kite began to monitor the ship as they pulling into the force of nature known as Reverse Mountain. immediately, he got to work. He patched even the tiniest scrape along the hull of the ship. The ship was well made, though he was sure that this would still be a tough trial to overcome. He would spend the trip constantly running up and down between each level of the ship to fix it as working on it from the outside would be deadly if even the smallest mistake was made. He wouldn't have much time to rest, even with help from Lilliana as he came to know her. This would be difficult. But he had it. He'd had time to take pick up some new tools apart from his wrenches at the shipyard in Clock Town. He could do this. He would do this. Not just for himself, but for his new crew. Still, it was likely that try as he might, most of the fixes would be temporary at best until he was able to properly would on it, and the ship would need much more work after Reverse Mountain.

Mamoru chuckled at the antics of his old friend. She hadn't really changed much. He wasn't so sure if that was good or bad to be honest. Still, things were good, and even proceeding nicely. He grinned at his dad as if to say, 'I told you so.' when Ringo's father presented her with the box. He'd been gifted something very similar not long before this meeting. In fact, the box and its contents were on him, albeit he'd created a much smaller carrying case, utilizing the material used to make mammon chains. He's developed the box on his own, and it was small enough to fit in a pocket on the inner lining of his suit.

"I know I know," his father verbalized before giving a small smile.
"Now that that's settled, I'm..."
"Going out with Ringo," Akihiko interrupted him. "Enjoy your date."
"Wha?! It... It's not a date dad!" Mamoru's face flushed, matching the inner lining of his suit. "Geez... We're just friends," he added almost immediately.

Akihiko laughed a little bit with his guardians quickly joining in. Mamoru huffed and turned to the the Vongola boss and guardians. "Th-thank you for having me." He said quickly before turning and skulking out of the room, more than just embarrassed. He couldn't believe his father, even if he knew the man was just poking fun at him. Mamoru all the same was walking away, assuming his friend would follow soon after.
