Details
My Self-Summary
Pirate, artist, performer.
Get out of here.
Become King of the Pirates.
Knives, comedy, navigation. You can slice me and dice me and it won't have an effect. I always put myself right back together.
Eyes and ears everywhere.
Books on treasure or navigation.
My favorite food is hot dogs.
They have to have ambition, but I'm a pirate. We're not really good at the whole steady partner thing, usually.

You're immune to being cut, huh? That's an interesting trick.
[ He doesn't actually get what Buggy's power is, but whatever. ]
no subject
It's been handy, once in a while for sure.
[It's hard to explain what he can do without a demonstration -- and his demonstrations can freak a lot of people out if they're not used to Devil Fruit or unusual abilities, he's found.]
no subject
[ Maybe because it would provide one hell of a challenge in a fight, if this guy really can't be cut. EXCITING. Not that they're here to fight, but Childe always has that on his mind. ]
no subject
Don't suppose you've got a knife, right?
[Because sadly, Buggy woke up lacking his. He's still a little bit peeved about tat.]
no subject
Well...it just so happens that I might. Not a big one, but it's not the size that counts, right?
no subject
In my experience? Not at all. As a matter of fact, the smaller ones can be even more dangerous, you know?
no subject
no subject
Let me know and I'll let you in.
I realised Childe never introduced himself so let's pretend he did orz
Besides that, people do trail him basically all over the hotel. It's annoying when he's trying to sneak around and mostly just baffling the rest of the time. Are they just voyeurs? Oh well.
He sends another text to Buggy to let him know he's on his way, then shortly arrives at the door.
He knocks and waits, one hand in the pocket of his trousers. He's casually dressed, half-buttoned shirt and black trousers that sit too low on his hips on purpose. It is that kind of hotel, after all.
When Buggy answers, he's all smiles. ]
I should have asked you to come up to my room, but hello anyway!
Oops, haha, we'll just handwave they did, yes! Sorry for the delay, RL got busy!
Next time, hm? Please, make yourself comfortable.
[A pause.]
I might have a bottle of something, if you'd like a drink.
no worries!
If it's vodka, I'm in! Otherwise, don't worry about it.
[ He's not too much of a drinker.
He slides into the room and pulls up one dingy chair. Really, the disparity in accommodations annoys him. There's absolutely no reason they can't all have the ridiculous opulence that Childe's room has. He wonders what the point is.
But those are questions for when he gets his hands on the House! ]
So, Buggy! Tell me something about you other than that you can't be cut. What's your world like? Seems like there are more worlds out there than I ever would have imagined!
no subject
And the clown nose is very much real, as is the blue hair and-- well, the powers, even if they may also be more freakish than anything.]
My world? [He hums thoughtfully] There's a lot of water. More seas than most people seem to have, so it's the primary way of getting from point A to point B. Pirates galore, as well...
[If you're not a pirate, you're a Marine. And if you're neither? Well-- Buggy doesn't really want to dwell on what an unflashy life that'd be. He comes over to put the glass down in front of Childe.]
What about yours? What's it like?
no subject
[ He tilts his head at the mention of more seas. ]
Pirates, huh? Sounds dangerous.
[ He says this in the same way someone might say sounds fun. Same difference to Childe, really.
He accepts the glass, takes a quick drink. He's not a huge drinker, but he can hold his vodka. ]
My world…well, it's pretty big. We have seven nations spread over the globe. I don't think we have an abnormal number of seas or…of anything? But it all seems normal when you're in it.
We have magic, but it's all elemental, and not everyone can do it. You have to receive a Vision — a blessing from the gods. Unfortunately, my Vision didn't come along with me, so I'm stuck without my Hydro abilities. But I'm plenty strong on my own, so it'll do.
[ Another drink. ]
This power of yours. Is that also magic?
no subject
He hums thoughtfully. Magic? He's not sure he'd call it that. Sometimes it's useful, sometimes it's more like a curse. It depends on the day...]
I don't know. In my home, we have Devil Fruits. Whoever finds one and eats it gains an ability. Mine was the Chop Chop Fruit. It means I'm cut-proof. You can slice me up all you want, but my body pieces itself together.
[At least it seems to, no matter how small he's chopped.]
I can do other things with it too... move my limbs even when they're not connected to me. A drop of salt water though? It takes it all away. Not sure if that's really magical.
no subject
[ Even having a Vision isn't all that abnormal in Teyvat. Sure, it allows Childe to manipulate the Hydro element, but it's magic. ]
Man, you gotta have the best coordination imaginable.
[ He's teasing a little. But his eyebrows go up at the mention of salt water. ]
Just salt water? So if you get drenched with salt water, you can be cut like normal or something? That's a hell of weakness for a guy who comes from a place with a lot of oceans.
no subject
[Which had been his intent, but-- an idiot interrupted that idea.]
I've had lots of practice, I suppose.
[He huffs out a laugh.]
Something like that. I could most likely become comatose as well, or too weak to move. I don't recommend it, honestly. Useful as these abilities are? They're a disadvantage, you're right.
no subject
Well…why don't you show me the part that's not a disadvantage!
[ He grins and sets his knife on the table. It's small, but sharp enough. ]
This place is severely lacking in weapons, so this is all I got for now. Good enough?
no subject
Or you know, be prepared to run if it looks like an obvious loss. Buggy likes to think he's sensible like that.
Although some would probably say this is anything besides sensible as he plucks off the glove on one hand and takes the knife, testing the weight of it. Not like the ones he has back home, but--]
Good enough. Watch close now!
[Because honestly, this is an old trick, and Buggy has zero qualms about bringing the knife down on his little finger to demonstrate just how chop chop proof he is.
And bleed proof -- at least in this case.]
