╗   ╔══════════╗Akisa Keryan♀ ╚══════╝═╚══════════╝Akisa was not a foreigner to the waves of the Grand Line. Oh sure, her parents were retired. That didn't stop her friends from taking her along on whatever crazy journey they had planned every now and then. The blue haired maiden grew up as a pirate should have... maybe a tiny bit more sheltered than most, but that wasn't going to stop this girl's determination.
The New World...
Akisa tried to think of the dangerous side of the world as being on that same Grand Line that she had grown accustomed to, back at Paradise, but... there were so many things didn't seem to add up. The storms here in the New World had gotten so horrendous that the young pirate had feared for her life many more times than just once. She was likely the most frightened person aboard the entire ship; ironic, considering how the crew she traveled with mistook her emotionless facade as bold courage. Oh, right. The ship...
It has been five long months of traveling to track down and reach the Blackout?! crew. While the trip wasn't action packed, it was... well, awkward. The entire recount of Akisa's journey from Paradise to the New World would take quite while in it's entirety. Strangely enough, the trip to the Red Line from . Akisa had to find her own way to a location near Fishman Island to meet up with some friends of Akisa's more seasoned Pirate friend, Keia, who agreed to help Akisa find the Blackout?! Crew and, simultaneously, Jack. The young woman often snuck onto ships in various ways, sometimes in the oddest ways such as inside a relatively empty crate 'disguised' as a set of clothes. One time Akisa accidentally got shipped in the complete wrong direction, causing her to be nearly an entire month late for Keia's friends! Once Akisa made it to Keia's friend's ship, though, the rest of her journey was a breeze compared to her trip getting to the ship. Keia could have guided Akisa there herself, but the way that Keia saw it, Akisa wouldn't last long in a real crew if she wasn't resourceful enough to get to one simple location by herself.
Anyway, Akisa had finally found and caught up to them; the Blackout?! Pirates' Airship. It had taken Keia's friends a good while to do it, but they finally bid Akisa farewell as she stepped onto the island that Jack's crew had docked at. This island was Wano Country, and their reasoning was for a brief emergency repair of some kind, Akisa didn't know the specific details. Why would the young woman know why they were here? It wasn't like Keia's friends had an inside information on the Blackout?! crew, they were just seasoned enough to know how to successfully get to the New World and then brave it's hardships for awhile. The details didn't concern Akisa anyway; all the pirate girl knew was that she wanted to see Jack. There were, however, dreamy fantasies that revolved around her reunion with Jack that just so happened to include the Blackout?! Crew. After all, the cyborg was doing what so many younger Macchina di Terrano upstarts dreamed of; being in a pirate crew of such successful pirates like the Ace-Azure duo. Who was to say Akisa, a relatively average young girl from the same island, didn't romanticize about the same sort of dream? Unlike those other upstarts, though, the blue haired girl's goal was not just that simple. What if Jack's crew didn't like her, or that she just wouldn't be of any use at all? What if they were all too disturbed by the emotion suppressors she wore for the great majority of every day and night? Akisa could go on for hours about all different kinds of 'what if' situations, as her social anxiety tended to get her all worried and worked up very quickly.
The Blackout?! ship was not hard to miss. First of all, it had two giant propeller turbines at both sides of the ship, not to mention two smaller propellers near the mast of the ship itself. Its sleek, aerodynamic design separated it from most other ships, which were only really designed to cut through the water of the seas instead of the clouds of the sky. Plus, it's captain had a fantastic mannerism of being loud... so her crew tended to be within earshot at all times. Within only a few moments Akisa had found the crew she was looking for. Naturally, that place was a bar. The problem, however, was actually trying to get along with them. That was how Akisa saw it, at least.
When Akisa walked into the bar what with her casual light pink sweater, black skirt and stockings, she rather sharply contrasted with the more traditional dresses of the Wano Country people. Plus, there was the whole fact that Akisa's ears were replaced with mechanical devices which would only further help her stick out. These 'devices' looked like small black domes with a solid peice of gray metal shaped like a wedge pointing diagonally up - a little like a cyborg version of 'elven' ears. The young woman would have been a bit disturbed by a few stares she got from some patrons if it wasn't for how much she was loving the apparel of the natives. Akisa liked fashion, even more so than normal considering she could be fashionable, in a much more literal sense than normal. A few of the more fuzzy, warmer kimonos made Akisa feel like it would be very snugly if she took that form.
As Akisa looked about the room, her general appearance would look excessively formal or emotionless, as if there was nothing that could ever catch her interest, here or anywhere else. Her metallic devices that replaced her ears were responsible for that, the Emotion Suppressors. The normally emotional girl could make her normal ears form at any time she wanted, though then she would take the risk of a rather dangerous repercussion. The turquoise 'soulless eyes' of Akisa would eventually spot the only other patrons that really stuck out among the crowd; Ace and her crew. The very first person those eyes of hers searched for was Jack, though she couldn't find him at first for whatever reason.
Regardless, Akisa had waited for this moment for five entire months. She sure as hell wasn't going to back down now. That didn't mean she wasn't anxious! While the young woman appeared to calmly approach the foreigners, her inner turmoil of this key moment was stirring up a huge ruckus. Poor Akisa would be a sweaty mess by the time she reached the table where Ace and Azure waited. if her emotion suppressors didn't cancel out any kind of body language that was made out of any emotion. Akisa did not manage to say anything, though... her mouth was glued shut, unable to find what she wanted to say. This just made her even more nervous, so instead the blue haired girl just ended up staring at Ace with those blank eyes of hers.
-Notes- Sorry if this post is confusing at all. TL:DR; Akisa traveled up to the Red Line from her hometown alone via stowing away on ships or for favors, then met up with some friends of a friend of hers that could take her through the New World and eventually find the Blackout?! crew. Sorry!
Also, Akisa needs NICKNAMES! D: -Tags- NONE! Yet. -Word Count- NONE! -Song- NONE! -Roleplayer- Pixel!

A day like any other. Nothing out of the usual for the Blackout crew. Except, of course, that they decided to travel to the New World, a place that they didn't exactly take daily trips to, let alone Wano. Then again, the Resonance had a mechanical failure that, if left alone, could have caused the entire ship to drop out of the sky within a few days, so Jack decided not to risk it and land for repairs. Of course, he would wait until the next day to do said repairs, taking his time to enjoy the town and get his fill of food and drink.
Of course, after a long day of drink, even the mightiest of men would need to relieve themselves. Y'know, bleed the lizard, empty the tanks, 'n' all that? Well, of course, I'll skip the gritty details, and go right ahead to Jack's exit of the "facilities". As he began to exit, another gentleman had passed him, "lifting" something from Jack in the process. Jack, of course, noticed immediately, and kicked the pickpocket, going so far as to use his Buster Springers to increase the impact. Walking over to the man, he merely knelt down, picking up his wallet from the man, and quietly exiting.
Now, entering the main area of the tavern, Jack scanned the area around him for possible threats or miscreants, before one certain person caught his eye. Not a threat, not a pickpocket, not a beggar, not even a crewmate. No, this was far more surprising. Miraculous, even. Standing at the crew's table, staring intently at the Captain, was someone Jack hadn't seen in a few years, and never expected to see before he went back home. It was her, the girl who held his "key", the one who made him what he was. Akisa, the only girl Jack had ever loved.
"A-Aki!Akisa! What in the name of Roger are you doing here?! I-I never expected to see you outside of Terrano, let alone all the way here in Wano!" Jack said, frantic and rushed. A light sigh, more of relief then anything, before he continued, in a lighter tone. "I'm...I'm so glad to see you...To see you safe...And to see you healthy. But why did you leave? I even asked Granny to watch over you until I came back." Quietly, barely audible under his breath, he muttered "Damn lazy old hag. Probably didn't even try to stop her from doing something so dangerous" He sighed once more, before walking closer to her. As he came within a few feet, a single tear of joy dropped from his left eye, though he quickly wiped it away before it could be noticed.

Azure sighed softly, placing his hand on the bar. The Blackout!? Crew was forced to land in Wano Country due to a need for repairs, or something. Jack and his repairs. That ship was like his baby. If one thing went wrong, everything had to stop so he could fix it. Which, in its own way, was a good thing. At least they never really had to fear dropping out of the sky. Although, in a free fall scenario, Azure (and by extension, Ace) would be fine, thanks to Azure’s ability to fly. That was for a different, highly unlikely, time though.
I’ll take a hot tea, whatever’s popular. Azure said to the bartender before turning and facing the Blackout!? Crew table. Of course he was eyeing his beautiful wife. She really was amazing. His whole world. But then, suddenly, a figure blocked his sight. A frail looking girl with long blue hair. The girl just stood there, staring at Ace.Bounty Hunters? No… they’d come after me first. Azure said to himself softly, scanning over his equipment, just in case. He brought along his snow white katana and Brotherhood, his bladed revolver. Azure rest his right hand on the handle of Zephyr, his katana, beginning his approach of the woman, before Jack rang out, saving the woman’s life.
So… that’s Akisa. Hm. Nothing special when compared to Ace. Azure thought to himself before grabbing his tea off the bar and walking over to the crew table and taking his seat next to his wife. Well well, hello there, Akisa. Do you mind if I call you Blue? Azure said to the light blue haired girl. Maybe Teal fits you better… Hm… Oh, sorry. I am Azure, Azure Fate Dusk. And this is my wife, Ace Pandora Dusk. It’s a pleasure to meet you. The Phoenix added to his previous statement. He gave Jack that look, that look of “she’s the one, right?”, that look of knowledge.
TAG: Ace, Night, and Akisa.

`` The female captain sat on her chair at the table where most of the crew sat. Her right hand rested on the cup of vodka, tracing the texture of the cup with her fingers. She laid back into her chair, looping her arm over the back of the wooden chair. So far, this day seemed to be going well, nothing attacked Ace or any of her crew mates, no bar fights, no violence. Of course there was some days when Ace needed to relax and not fight for her life. Then all of the sudden, a figure just randomly walked up to her crew's table. Her light brown eyes looked up at the figure. Her body seemed frail, a lot of blue hues coloring this female figure. Her face was unusual and strange. As if they were empty.
`` However, Ace had gone through many strange and unusual things. This did not bother her one bit. Ace was about to say something before Jack walked into the bar, scanning the room before his eyes froze at the frail figure before Ace. "A-Aki!Akisa! What in the name of Roger are you doing here?! I-I never expected to see you outside of Terrano, let alone all the way here in Wano!" exclaimed Jack, as if he was thrown out of his comfort zone. "I'm...I'm so glad to see you...To see you safe...And to see you healthy. But why did you leave? I even asked Granny to watch over you until I came back."
`` Jack muttered something under his breath before he started to walk closer to her. "Well well, hello there, Akisa. Do you mind if I call you Blue?" asked Azure as he took a seat next to Ace, a small secretive smile appeared on Ace's face as Azure sat next to her. His presence near her always made her feel calm and safe even though she obviously can take care of herself. Ace's hand made its way to Azure's hand, lacing fingers with his under the table, out of everyone's sight. Ace looked at the blue haired girl, so this is the girl that Jack and Azure had talked about. "Maybe Teal fits you better… Hm… Oh, sorry. I am Azure, Azure Fate Dusk. And this is my wife, Ace Pandora Dusk. It’s a pleasure to meet you." said Azure. "Ah, yes. A pleasure to meet you too Akisa." said Ace with a small smile.

╗ ╔══════════╗Akisa Keryan♀ ╚══════╝═╚══════════╝Once things got moving, everything started to get a bit better for Blue. Or, more accurately, when Jack came up and nearly made the poor girl trip on her own two feet in surprise. She was a rather skittish girl when she got nervous, after all, and Jack was so frantic that having his voice come so suddenly wasn't exactly expected. Of course, with her emotion suppressors active, this surprise wouldn't have been apparent in the slightest except for, perhaps ,how quickly Akisa turned to look to this 'new' voice.
Either way, any fears that Akisa had previously held about this meeting very quickly vanished. After all, this was the young woman's final objective in her long, arduous trip through seas both old and new! Akisa narrowed all of her concentration onto Jack now that she had finally found him - this much was evident when the maiden stared directly at Jack and nothing but Jack. The woman felt so elated, so happy, that she could barely contain screaming and hugging the android before her. While her emotion suppressors would stop such a thing from happening that did not mean Akisa couldn't feel that way. Blue even contemplated disabling her emotion suppressors for the time being, though her fear of the consequences made her reconsider. Maybe in a little bit when her emotions were not cascading down like floodgate had just burst.
So, thanks to those aforementioned emotion suppressors, Akisa's reunion with Jack would have been a bit awkward for any third party observer, as Akisa did absolutely nothing but stare at Jack. Every single thing Blue wanted to do was cancelled out by her emotion suppressors. This inaction frustrated Akisa so much that, after a full minute of staring, she would have briefly gathered up the courage to disable her emotion suppressors; an action that would result in the mechanical devices that covered her ears to fold away into her body, almost as if the devices were actually a part of her body. With the only thing inhibiting an outburst of emotion gone, Akisa finally leaped forward in what was almost a tackle-hug with tears following quickly afterward! Thankfully Blue was very light in general, though it was quite the sudden movement!
"Jack! I've been looking for you FOREVER! I..."
Akisa was getting very emotional - emotional was dangerous. The young woman very quickly reactivated her emotion suppressors, now leaving her in a hugging position without any noticeable expression on her face, which was actually likely hidden on Jack's shirt, unless Jack were to shove her away of course. Now Blue was stuck on Jack and couldn't focus enough to say or do something that did not have a load of emotion attached to that action - That was what the emotion suppressors suppressed, after all. Actions with noticeable emotion behind them.
Oh... I must look really stupid right now...
-Notes- Sorry for only really talking to Jack >w> He WAS the main reason she spent months at sea, though.
Also sorry for the long wait, college broke my muse and moving takes lots of time. I'm back on track now! -Tags- JACK, Azure and Ace too! -Word Count- 481 -Song- NONE! -Roleplayer- Pixel!

There was no hesitation. Not a second. As soon as Akisa made contact with Jack, he embraced her as tight as he could. Or, at least, as tight as he could without hurting her. Glancing up for just a moment, he shot Azure the look of "Yeah, this is her.", before returning his attention to Akisa. "I....I'm just so.....so happy to see you. You don't know how much I've missed you, or how badly I felt for leaving like that. I....I can't begin to apologize for just leaving like it was nothing, but.....I just had to get stronger. I had to become able.....able to protect you. But now, I have that strength, and you're with me. Akisa, I.....I....."
Jack stuttered a bit, before becoming silent, and merely embracing her.That was, of course, only for a moment, as Jack soon pulled Akisa away from himself just a bit, before bringing his face to hers, and attempting to kiss her passionately. "I....love you."
{{Notes: Blarg, it's a bit short. Brain came up a bit empty. Pixy-chan, if that last part's no good, let me know and I'll fix it.}}
