Alright, that little twerp’s singing was extremely aggravating by this point. Hakkyou ground her teeth slightly as the little singing man dared to get closer to the half-demon Yonkou. He was perched atop her shipwright’s hat; so naturally, she swiped at him with her tail. Sadly though, she missed, and he flew higher than she could reach.
She was distracted enough by the annoying “singer” that she really hadn’t noticed the fact the other Admirals were at the festival as well. She’d also been too focused on bothering Faust to pay much mind to if they were there or not; though it wasn’t as if she had to worry about an attack by them. Admirals had to play by the rules after all; which is one of the reasons she oh so loved being a pirate.
Doing her best to go back to ignoring the annoying song that was being sung, she turned her attention toward Faust’s statement about the booze. It was odd that there was so much of it, but no farms in sight.
“I can tell you right now it’s not imported. There are never any shipments of alcohol this large being shipped out of Loguetown; only in from Macchina. There’s also no distilleries large enough to produce this much alcohol around here, and the ingredients needed for booze are never shipped to this island; at least, not from Loguetown,” Hakkyou’s tone sounded very thoughtful. She was now pondering this conundrum as well, and having control over the biggest merchant island in existence was a boon when figuring out supply and demand, as well as usual shipping routes. “Most of the island’s trading comes through Loguetown as well, since shipments of food and textiles are shipped here on a regular basis.”
It was a perplexing issue, and had it not been for how stumped the Yonkou was by it she would have balked at the fact she was cooperating with an Admiral.

Jack laughed a bit more, still acting dead drunk, whilst listening intently to what Hakkyou and Faust were saying. It was definitely strange that such a small island could produce enough alcohol to even have it coming out of the fountains. Even stranger was that Jack couldn't recognize any vintage or origin from the taste, a keynote that any alcohol should have and disclose to the sip of a skilled tongue. "Ain't Macchinan, either. Too sweet. Can't fig're out the taste, either. 's a real damn mystery, in'it?"
Moments later, Jack felt a pressure on his head, and his organic eye twitched, his arm heating up and steaming visibly. "OI, YA RAT-BILGE LITTLE SHRIMP! AIN'T NO-ONE TOUCHES THE HAT!" He roared, his hand reaching down towards the holster of his pistol. It usually took quite a bit to anger Jack, but Oberon had managed to press a big red button, sending him instantly over the edge. However, before he could reach his gun, there was a swish, and Jack was stricken in the head by a thin mass of muscle and fluff, which was barely more than an annoyance, but to keep up his act, he allowed it to knock him over, falling with a thud.

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style,width: 450px; padding: 10px;][bg=121212] THIS IS A GAME. DO NOT TRUST YOUR EARS. WHAT YOU HEAR ARE LIES. One of the best things about consuming that accursed fruit was the ability to enhance his vision at will without the risk of overloading it. It was a useful tool for gathering information without being noticed; a handy skill for a person as inconspicuous as himself. Spying from far away places was just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. In fact, it was so useful that Miguel was already reaping the benefits right now while comfortably sipping his tea. The surprisingly civil chat between Faust and the Yonkou was pointing out several bits of information that he wouldn’t have otherwise obtained if he had stuck to conventional methods like most boring Blue Sea dwellers would. Finally, something worth his time in this blasted festival! If he couldn’t partake of any of the beverages, then he might as well try and get to the source of this mystery. Who knows? It might actually be beneficial for his long-term plans. Miguel’s eyes suddenly narrowed when he saw the pirate with the Yonkou –one of her stooges, no doubt- suddenly explode at the singing faerie for touching his hat of all things. Filing the fact away for later, the Admiral quickly polished off the rest of his tea and signalled for the check. Looks like he had a fight to diffuse before they were kicked out or something. He really didn’t want to have to explain that to his superiors. It didn’t take long for the waiter to arrive with the check, which he promptly paid without even looking at the price. ”Keep the change. It’s your tip.” The admiral muttered to the now-smiling waiter as he stood up from his table and marched as fast as he could towards the scene without bursting into a run. The crowd parted like the red sea before him as he did so, afraid that they might become the Admiral’s target instead. He pushed down the multitude of emotions that suddenly sprung into existence inside of his head and continued to march until he was behind Faust. ”Couldn’t this ruckus have waited a little later?” Miguel deadpanned as he looked at the fallen form of the strange white haired stooge of the Yonkou with a raised eyebrow. ”Or even better, not at all?”TAGGING: PARTICIPANTS | WORDS: 377 | NOTES: BLAME CONTINUITY ERROR FOR THE DELAY |

There was certainly a mystery to it all. How could an island that clearly lacked the resources supply so much alcohol for a massive festival like this? None of the alcohol was being shipped in, so where could it have come from? When Faust tried to measure it all up, he began to realize that absolutely none of it could be measured. There had to be some method of supplying all this alcohol. Some means by which it could be mass produced. But that raised another question - if they could mass-produce all this alcohol, why was it a secret? Why did they not try to establish themselves as an exporter of alcohol? The Admiral frowned as he thought about it. There was something not right with this island.
"Really makes you wonder..." he remarked aloud as he took another sip of his drink. Whatever was up with this island, he was certainly going to keep track of it. The island had to have some reason as to why they had so much alcohol that they weren't trying to make a profit on by exporting. Had it all been smuggled in? But if so, why? He briefly wondered if Miguel had thought the same thing. He didn't doubt that the Admiral had probably thought about it at some point. The Yonkou before him, Hakkyou, was clearly aware of it. The only question was, where to start?
The Admiral's thoughts were interrupted, however, as the Yonkou's crewmate yelled loudly at the Shichibukai. Watching the man's rather passionate reaction to having his hat touched the Admiral couldn't help but forget for a moment that he was standing in the presence of Pirates and laugh a little. It felt like this whole situation had just become a tiny bit more normal. He preferred things this way.

I DON'T NEED YOUR FUCKING HALO can't you see i'm no one's angel [atrb=style,border-top: 8px solid #333333; border-bottom: 8px solid #333333; border-left: 3px solid #b1b198; border-right: 3px solid #b1b198;][bg=7b3636][atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,420,true][atrb=width,20%][atrb=vAlign,top]
Hakkyou felt her tail hit something fairly solid, though it wasn’t her intended target. Despite the fluff at the end of her tail, it still managed to strike Jack like a whip. There wasn’t a lot of force behind the blow; just enough to knock the little faerie out of the air; but it was a fast strike. Jack’s admittedly comical fall added to the fact she was starting to feel a bit of a buzz from the alcohol caused some pretty heavy laughter to come from her. It was enough she had to hold her stomach with one arm. Amazingly even Faust laughed a bit at Jack’s expense.
It wasn’t long before Hakkyou regained her composure, taking a swig of what alcohol she still had on her to drown any further giggles. She noticed another Admiral had walked up to the group, and was quite rude about intruding. It was a party, and he was acting like a wet blanket telling them to keep down the ruckus. There were plenty of other, much more rowdy party-goers causing even more of a ruckus than Jack had. Being outnumbered by power standards kept Hakkyou from making a snide comeback; in fact, she opted to just ignore this Admiral altogether. It wasn’t like she had any business with him, so there would be no old wounds to poke at for fun. Though she did hope her ignoring him stuck a nerve. Pissing off marines was just too much fun to pass up.
She took another draught of her alcohol, only to realize she was now out. To top things off, the sun was beginning to sink low into the sky, signaling the time for sleep for most people. Hakkyou herself wanted to see what kind of people would come out for the night party. It was the time she usually partied anyway, and she’d had plenty of sleep that morning.
“I wonder what kind of entertainment they’ll have out now that it’s getting late…” she mused to herself.

Jack sighed loudly, looking around a bit, before sighing again and sipping from his drink. "Oi oi, what kinda sausage fest of a party izzis? Only chick I see 'ere's my bloody sister." He complained loudly, glancing at Hakkyou as he said the word "sister." He laughed boisterously, then got closer to her. "I mean, fam'ly r'semblance is 'ere. White 'air, sharp eyes, sharper wit. That, and y'ain't all over me." He laughed again, this time louder and seemingly drunken. He had the act of a drunk down pat, and he was definitely selling it. Anyone who didn't know him well enough would think he was honestly drunk, and that would be their mistake. A tricked pocket is a picked pocket, after all.
As the sun finally set, and the moon began to rise, Jack let up the act a bit, looking up at the sky. "Ah, the night. 'Bout time. Oi, Hakky, c'mere for a sec. I need your help wif somethin'." He tugged at Hakkyou's arm lightly, motioning towards the stage and smiling. He had a plan to liven up the events of the night, and he needed Hakkyou's assistance.

It is now the night of the first day. At this point, children are put to bed, and the more "adult" entertainment is brought out. Have fun~
