[There's noise the minute the feed starts, but it's not coming from the sullen man sitting front and center, rather from the out of focus commotion behind him. There's a lot of people talking at once, but a certain straw-hatted pirate can be heard over all the others,
"Hwah! There's so much meat!!"
"Luffy, don't eat it all by yourself!"

The look on Law's face suggests that he is annoyed yet tiredly resigned to the level of ambient noise around him. More importantly, his face is clearly visible since his hat is noteably absent.]

If anyone happens to see my hat around, please return it to me. It-
["Nami-swaaaaaan! You can sleep in my bed toni-" cut short by the distinct sound of someone being smacked in the face.]
... I'll attach a picture. Let me know if you've seen it.

[He ends the feed with a sigh. Attached is a picture of the desert with Law's signature furry white hat rolling by like a tumbleweed.

(OOC: Feel free to assume a sighting of Law's hat, the more people who have seen it but not grabbed it, the funnier.)]

he didn't sign up for this

[kikoku]

That's not what I-
[GIVES UP]

Most humans have brains inside their skulls, removing it would kill them so I wouldn't have assumed... whatever you have... would be. The function of a skull in humans is protecting the brain.

the life of a doctor

[boneafide]

Why do so many things kill humans?! First it was "germs" and then it was "blood loss" and now it's "losing your brain"?!

I mean fair

[kikoku]

[That actually gets a laugh out of Law because yeah, to some sort magic skeleton, humans are probably pretty fragile. He could argue that compared to a lot of species, humans are actually very resilient, but he doesn't think Papyrus would understand or even care.]

Removing almost any organ would kill a human eventually, if they didn't die from blood loss first. Sometimes they even stop working on their own, that could kill someone too.
[Papyrus's shock is funny to him, so he's feeding into it.]

[boneafide]

[ He's definitely shocked, because honestly... the only human he really knew before coming here could literally reverse time to reset their own death. Not that he knew the full details there. And then there's Olivia, who can heal herself- and Ban, who is just straight up immortal. Most of the humans he has close ties with... are kinda special. Hearing that a human could just die from losing ANY organ cues a gasp. ]

That's horrible!! Oh my God!!

[kikoku]

[And then there's Law who can actually remove peoples organs without killing them. Law's entire new crew is a walking horrible example of how squishy humans are/aren't.]

Yeah. [He sounds more amused than horrified though.] You can die from breaking your neck too, if the spinal cord is severed high enough. A strong enough electric shock would kill someone too. Not to mention all the various substances that are poisonous if consumed.

Ah, you can die just from going into shock after a bad injury too, if it's not treated in time.
[He can do this forever, please don't let him.]

[boneafide]

ELECTRIC SHOCKS KILL PEOPLE??

[ He's literally holding his head in his hands now, and shaking it back and forth. No, he's actually very upset about this one.]

I ALMOST KILLED FRISK?!?

[kikoku]

[OH NO, this is a little bit too extreme a reaction than what he was he would really like. So he holds his hands up, expression not exactly calming, more like very slightly annoyed.]

Not necessarily, don't yell. People have survived being hit by lighting before, and that's an incredible amount of electricity.
[SO PLEASE, CHILL.]

[boneafide]

So the electricity orb wouldn't have actually hurt Frisk? It certainly did sting me, quite a bit...

[Hrmmm...]

[kikoku]

I didn't say that. It would still have hurt. Even a mild shock would hurt. It just wouldn't necessarily kill someone.

[People who aren't helping right now: Law.]

[boneafide]

Oh. Um.

[Yeah, NOT HELPING.......]

[kikoku]

[He could just not double back. No one expect him to be nice. But Papyrus hasn't really ever annoyed Law so much as deeply confused him, so.]

This Frisk person is your friend, right? I'm sure they would have forgiven you.

[boneafide]

Yes... Yes, I'm sure they have!

I don't want to kill anyone.

[kikoku]

That's good. I'm certain I wouldn't have any idea how to defeat you if you felt otherwise.

[It's a joke, sort of.]

[boneafide]

WELL! The easiest way to defeat me in a battle... Would be to say "stop fighting me, we're friends!!"

[kikoku]

...
[Well ok]

Even if they weren't actually your friend?
[He certainly can't believe that would personally work for him... right???]

[boneafide]

Then it just means they want to be friends if we aren't already!

[kikoku]

... Or it means they're tricking you?
[That's what Law would assume, being naturally pessimistic.]

[boneafide]

Oh no, that wouldn't happen.

[ Naturally optimistic!! ]

[kikoku]

What makes you so sure of that?

[Certainly Law would never lie to Papyrus like that but... There are surely worse people around here than him.]

[boneafide]

I can't be tricked!! I'm just too clever!!

[kikoku]

I am absolutely certain I could trick you if I wanted to.
[YOU BELIEVE ANYTHING YOU'RE TOLD???]

[boneafide]

No, you definitely couldn't!

[kikoku]

That sounds like a challenge. I accept.

[This is the level of maturity Papyrus has forced Law to resort to.]

[boneafide]

Good!! Because we've decided that if someone's my friend, they won't be tricking me, and if they're tricking me, they aren't my friend... That means, since I won't be letting you trick me, you're my friend now!!

I won't lose, when friendship is on the line!!

[kikoku]

[Oh.]

... You don't want someone like me for a friend, don't go deciding things like that on your own.
