[The feed shows Law leaning on a table, in a much better mood than he was in his last address to the network. If you pay attention, you might notice Olivia puttering around in the background amidst an assortment of boxes.]

Now that we're all back in Oska with our powers restored, I'd like to formally offer my services as a doctor and surgeon to the team. Especially those of you with what you think are incurable diseases.
[A pause as he turns his head to answer a question from Olivia, inaudible from this far away.]
Just sort them by expiration date, if it's past the date then throw it out.

More importantly... [Law rests his chin on his hand as he turns back to the feed, inadvertently showing off his fingers tattooed with the letters "DEAT".... Given his username you can guess what letter is on the thumb. It's all the more sinister with that lazy smirk on his face. Literally nothing about him says "legitimate doctor."] For all you heroic and daring types out there, be a little more reckless, won't you? We've got to give Olivia-ya here some hands on practice.

[ This time you can hear Olivia yelp "Mr. Law!" In the background, but before she can protest further, he ends the feed.]

[ she stifles a smile behind a ducked head. ]

Yes... You're very nice, Sieglinde.

[winces]

Thanks... I've gotten in trouble for overdoing it before [ cough sieglinde cough ] so I definitely try to take better care of myself!

[ most... times.... ]

[winces]

[ she puffs her cheeks at him. ]

Our crewmates then. [ does that make a difference to you, law... being a pirate and all... ] Everyone is that, and we shouldn't be exploiting anyone or anything, regardless!

[kikoku]

Ah, no.
[What a strange name, Law thinks.]

Someone I know back home. His name is Brook.

[boneafide]

...

Short for Bookman maybe?

[ "Brook" doesn't sound like a proper skeleton. Because skeletons are named after fonts. And there's no font called "brook." ]

[kikoku]

[Ugh.]
I'm not boasting. But if you're truly so sure that there's nothing I can do for you, what else is there could could possibly want of me?

[He was just trying to sound cool.]

[kikoku]

[Truly Law is thankful when any part of the Straw Hats' behavior goes in the way he expect it to.]
She just got here, as I suspect you have as well. I haven't been treating her any way in particular because she can take care of herself.

[kikoku]

I expect people to look at the limited options that seem to exist here as far as medical care goes and make their judgement accordingly.

I'm not going to pretend to be "nice" just to fit into whatever your preconcieved notions of what constitutes a doctor are.

[kikoku]

[These sound like the sort of thing Luffy would say, confirming Law's suspicion that Gumshoe's not the smartest guy around. But that's fine, doesn't mean he can't still get things done.]

Aah. I can see how the qualities she has would inspire that sort of response in people.
[And that's said in a super awkward way because Law is masterfully dodging any suggestion that he too would do many things for Olivia he wouldn't do for other people.]

[sheriffing]

I don't think questioning your name is a demand for kindness.

[Dr. Frankenstein is the only option back home, you learn to be suspicious.]

[strictdiscipline]

It's not a bad thing, to follow someone else's path.

[Lord knows that's what she's spent the majority of her life doing. But bending solely to the wish of one other person's bitten her in the ass more than once, and that's not a fate she wishes on anyone.

Riza sighs, and when she speaks again, her voice is gentler.]

But sometimes you won't have those other people to follow. Sometimes you have to figure out how to act on your own.

ok fine tags you for real

[strictdiscipline]

You know medicine as well?

[She's just.....uh, gonna set literally everything else he's said aside for the time being.]

1/2

[diablejambe]

[Sanji scowls at that, but has at least calmed down to the point where he can take a long drag of his cigarette without any hearts showing up.]

Listen. [A long exhale of smoke] Just because a lady can manage on her own doesn't mean she should have to. [He points his cigarette at the jewel] A true man would go to hell and back to make sure they never had to lift a finger.

[Another pause, another drag of his cigarette.....]

[diablejambe]

[.... and Sanji's eyes are going heart shaped again as he leans forward on one hand, little puffs of heart-shaped smoke puffing out the end of his cigarette in quick succession.]

Like what I'd do for the beautiful princess doctor~~!

[He's a lost cause]

[kikoku]

[HMPH]
It's perfectly fitting to describe my skills, just not the ones I'm currently offering.

What exactly are you teaching Olivia-ya, anyway?

[kikoku]

[Your error was assuming that Law is the kind of person you can just idly start a conversation with, sorry Achilles.]

But of course, I'm a pirate. Acting "uncivilized" is one of the thing we're known for.
[Just playing right into it with a smirk returning to his face.]

If you're not going to give me an answer, maybe I should just keep Olivia-ya as my hostage. That would be the "uncivilized" thing to do, right?

voice;

[kikoku]

[Law is great at making horrible first impressions, one time he flipped off a guy he just met.]

I don't see how that's information I need to be giving out to strangers. It's unrelated to my medical practice.
[Suspicious.]

[grunehexe]

[HMMPH]

The proper use of herbs, potionmaking, treatment of wounds, how to best utilize her magic... What are you teaching Olivia?

[grunehexe]

Know that I do not say this because I am kind.

I would not waste my time training a disciple I found incapable.

[kikoku]

It depends on what it is and what's causing it. I would need to examine each case presented to me separately.

But depending on what I find, I might be able to cure it.
[So the short answer is 'cure them maybe.' Not as bad as you could have suspected.]

[kikoku]

[IRRITATEDLY;]
Why is everyone so fixated on that?

[Why the fuck do you think, Law?]

[trenchdoting]

[Confirmed: Gumshoe has things in common with Monkey D. Luffy.]

Yeah! You see it too, right, pal?! She's an inspiration to us all! In fact, we should call ourselves Team Olivia!!

video

[trenchdoting]

Overdoing it's no good. Just try to use your best judgement, pal! I believe in ya!

voice;

[trenchdoting]

On my own. [He repeats that to himself, quietly. It's been a few months now. He no longer has Edgeworth to boss him around, or any other prosecutor. There's Tsukuyo, yes, and the other friends he's made in ALISTAIR... but still...] ...the path of Gumshoe...

I'll figure it out, Lieutenant. I promise! And... and in a very cautious way!!

[weatherscience]

Friends? [ That is... definitely stretching it, but then it's also the definition her captain would go for. ] Ehh, we're allies, really... but he's someone our captain trusts. [ Which means all of them follow suit. ]

Are you a nurse, Olivia-chan?
