I don't think you're alone in that, [he says, with a bit of a sympathetic expression. Most people probably haven't dealt with that sort of thing -- and he can't say he's an expert, either. But if the Midnight Channel had something like that behind it, then surely it's a possibility for this place, too.

It's definitely something he's going to have to think about, at any rate.]

A pirate ship? [Yu sort of blurts the question out with more surprise in his expression than he had intended. It's not totally unexpected, with how at-home she looks on the water, he guesses -- but she certainly doesn't look like any pirate he's ever seen.]

... You're right about that. If I'm traveling, I usually go by train or plane. [Some humor makes it into his expression as he adds,] Can't say I've met many pirates, either.

Depending on the pirates, it's not the worst kind of ship to end up on, trust me.

[ A plane – she knows the word, and, thanks to the library, she's seen pictures of them, enough that Nami feels confident as she gives Yu a little nod. ]

Your world has advanced technology like airships? Cool. [ From what she's gathered from other guests, there are worlds where the watches the resort gives them fit in perfectly – something a person who makes calls via telepathic snail like her,c can only imagine. ]

I've got a map of the resort I keep working on while I'm here. I can make you a copy. It'll help you know what to avoid.

I can believe it. [Said with a little smile. He imagines the pirates she knows might be a little more like fictional ones, in his world -- real pirates, the ones you hear about on the news, are way less friendly.

He can't help but wonder if there's some connection, though. If maybe things that are fiction in some worlds are real in another.

Anyway--] You could say that, yeah. I never think of it as "advanced" because it's normal, but compared to some places, maybe.

[That, too, is an interesting thought. Different worlds, different realities -- in spite of the resort itself, and in spite of how much he misses his friends, at least there's things here to keep his mind occupied. Anyway, a little smile tugs at his expression at her offer.]

A navigator and a mapmaker? That's really impressive. I'd appreciate that, thanks.
