Do you know the kind of shit I've seen since I've gotten here? I got chased by myself. We ran away from a smoke monster! Why couldn't you curse a boat?
Well yeah we've all seen some weird stuff here. I've even heard something about a God or something like that, but not sure you'd have to ask someone else about it.
But I thought curses could only be put on people? Like hexes?
What are you even on about? [He's not going to ask someone about a god that he doesn't even know the name of?]
You can curse objects too, I think. Put bad luck on them or make them cause misfortune. I've heard about stuff like that from other pirates.
Pretty sure the downside of Devil Fruits count as a curse, right? [Unless Luffy enjoys the constant threat of death by seawater that plagues their lives.]
I don't know, it's things I hear at the docks. They like to talk there but they don't explain a lot of things.
People bring their own misfortune I think. And I guess devil fruits count but then it doesn't really do anything until a person is involved. The fruit isn't cursed the person is?
(Luffy rubs his forehead. COMPLICATED.)
ANYWAY my boat keeps sinking. If you can stop the Doing Her Best from doing that you are welcome to use her on occasion?
(Luffy laughs at that one, he can see the way Buggy's attitude changes in a moment. Little do either of them know that the boat truly is cursed and will never stop sinking....)
We'll all need to use it, but sure. You think I'm joking when I say it keeps sinking so be my guest. As long as she comes back, don't make me come out looking for you.

( Don't ask Luffy about the wanted posters then! Even if Luffy has a copy of one on a wall somewhere in the lodgings. )
Cursed? You can't just curse a boat.

Although that-- catches him off guard. Doing Her Best, huh?]
... You'll let me use your boat?

... It makes him feel a little awkward, honestly, whether he actually fixes it or ever decides to take it out or not.]
Huh. I'll see what I can do, Luffy.
[His name this time, maybe just a little distractedly.]
