Staring at the other with a smug and baffled look were Faythe and Zoro.

"You didn't." His face paled drastically.

"I didn't." She then grabbed Luffy, who was blankly smiling, by the arm, "But he did." She had the widest of grins on her face. With a dramatic twirl and happy sparkles surrounding her, she held up her hands towards Brook to introduce himself.

"Hello, everyone! How do you do? Seems like my ship and I caused some trouble. I'm 'Dead Bones' Brook! Nice to meet you!!" He tipped his hat.

"I thought you were the Skeleton Gentlemen, Mr. Brook?" Faythe tilted her head up at the towering figure of bones.

"Did I?" He peered down, copying her tilt, "Forgive me, or as you have taught me—" He then held a skeletal to his gaping mouth and lifted a leg up in a feminine manner, "Oopsie~!" He winked to the crew in a cutesy way.

"Perfect!" She gave him a thumbs up.

"ARE YOU JOKING!!? STOP TEACHING HIM WEIRD THINGS!!" Franky and Zoro both scolded Faythe.

Usopp and Chopper were screaming their heads off, trying to hold up a gold cross—which she decided came from their backup treasure they saved from Skypiea and the Golden City.

"ITS A SKELETON!!" Chopper cried out.

"THERES NO REASON FOR A SKELETON TO TALK, WALK, OR WEAR AN AFRO!! THIS IS A DREAM, ITS JUST A DREAM!!" Usopp proclaimed as if it was the correct way to go about this.

Chopper being the lovable gullible, believed it without another thought and accepted that reality itself is just of someone's imagination, "Really? I'm glad it's just a dream!"

"BEGONE FOUL SPRIRIT, BEGONE FOUL SPIRIT!!" Usopp repeated like a mantra.

Brook being the gentlemen the was, turned to Robin, "Oh, hello, young lady! Could you let me see your panties?"

"STOP THAT, YOU PERVERTED SKELETON—!!!" Nami, with deadly accuracy—nailed the heel of her boot into Brook's temple.

"HEY, FAYTHE, LUFFY!! WHAT THE HELL IS THIS GUY??"

Faythe made a loud gasp and flew up to Brook's level to cover his nonexistent ears—which ended in her just smushing his Afro into his head, "Don't listen to him, Mr. Brook."

Brook blinked—well—looked like he blinked, "And why is that?"

Faythe looked over at Zoro as if the very memory itself was just too much to bare, "That bloke over there had rudely tossed you overboard as soon as you and I started being the close of buds~!!" She draped herself dramatically over his shoulder in her parrot form.

"Idiot... There's no way he's going to believe that—!" Franky was caught off guard by the audacious look on the skeleton's naked face, "HE BELIEVES HER!???"

"HE DID!? And not even a moment of silence..???" Brook let out a guffaw, "HOW RUDE!" He put his hands on his hips.

"DID NOT—!!" Zoro shouted at the redhead, "LUFFY—! EXPLAIN, WHERE YOU GUYS PICKED HIM UP FROM!?"

Luffy was chilling beside Faythe as they messed with Brook's walking cane, "He's Mr. Brook...? And he's more funny than before! So I made him our Nakama." He laughed.

"AND HE SAID YES—!!" Faythe slid in front of Brook and literally koala hugged the skeleton. Her legs were dangling as Brook spun around laughing his iconic laugh.

"YOHOHOHOHOHO~!! Well aren't you just a bundle of affection!?" Brook hugged her back as they were just a blur of wind, spinning around the deck—laughter whizzing with the speed.
