I. "ALL ABOARD"
[They labeled him "Submissive". Poked and prodded him like an animal. Slapped a collar onto him for good measure. But he'd been called worse back in the East Blue. Zoro never lost sleep over it. He wasn't about to let other people's opinions bother him now.
Despite the alien surroundings, Zoro falls into his bounty-hunting instincts as naturally as breathing: Observation. Threat assessment. Evaluating his environment for anything useful. The Walking Tour, he determines, is the best avenue for this. So he quietly joins without complaint.
He takes stock of the other Dominant-Submissive pairs around him, mindful of the power dynamics stitched into each interaction. For now, there was nowhere to go except forward. But that suits Zoro fine.
Gaze firmly fixed onto the path ahead, he reaches down for the nearest Dominant, not even sparing a glance at how large or small they may be — it doesn't matter, because Zoro's response will be the same.]
Get on.
[Might as well get this over with.]
II. "THINK OF YOUR FUTURE"
[The recruiter had no sooner said the word "bar" when Zoro started walking to the nearest class. Finally, something he could guzzle down. If memorizing a few recipes was all he needed to do, then it was a small price to pay. The fact that it also turned into a lesson on which ingredients he should be cautious of in the future was a lucky coincidence.
As of now, he only knows how to craft three cocktails. Anything beyond that, tough luck.
He levels his dark gaze at the patron in front of him. In a deadpan voice, he asks: ]
What do you want.
[Zoro isn't expecting any tips for his warm personality.]
III. "MOTHS TO THE FLAME"
["Chicanery Beach" is an apt name for this place. He was trying to get to the ocean, got roped into visiting the lighthouse, and none of this makes sense. Not even the lighthouse's positioning made sense. He's still not sure how his volunteer partner managed to find it.
The fuel had smelled strange. But everything else about this world was strange to Zoro, so he hadn't bothered to point it out.
Even when the flame suddenly cast an eerie blue light, Zoro doesn't blink. Instead, he says in a low, even tone:]
I took a shit in something awhile back.
[A beat.]
Still not sure what it was.
IV. NETWORK

Where's the ocean. I need a boat
