( the buggy bomb, as it tends to be, is endlessly amusing to shanks. he may never tire of it. it brings back old memories, anyway, and he's always been a bit of a romantic sap. )
well, he wasn't exactly a clown then we were just children, apprentices to a great pirate captain
( no he will not be naming names. )
but buggy's always been confrontationally challenged, you could say at least when his own self-preservation is under threat he's never shied away from screaming at me for one thing or another
( which is to say: he's not surprised. between the two of them, shanks was always the brave one. still is, it seems. buggy loves a show and equally loves to shout, but when the tide turns against him, he's usually the first one out the door. )
it's better to be a fish-gutter than in the gutter if any human were to ever catch her stealing i won't always be able to keep my eye on her but she does have a room on my ship, however she wishes to use it
can't imagine him as anything other than a clown. but you must know him pretty well.
[ that is fondness he detects in your writing, you old shitty sap. ]
luffy's different. he follows the kind of code that no other pirate does. can't expect buggy, or really anyone, to live up to that, i suppose. i won't forgive him for leaving nami to arlong's mercy, though.
i'll tell her not to steal anymore. but she took my knife because i scared her. can't really blame her for wanting to defend herself.

i don't expect you to forgive him
we're still ... working things out ourselves
( "working" "things" "out" — it's complicated. )
i wish i could say i knew him better, but this is the first time we've seen or spoken to each other in 20 years or so
she's a good kid
i'll ask her to show me what she's learned when she gets back :)
