Panting heavily, Luffy had just scaled his way back up the side of the towering structure from a very dubious position, using only his bare, dirt-caked hands to latch hold of brick after brick. Distracted earlier by the 'journal' the gatekeeper had given him upon entry to the city, Luffy had been amazed to hear a voice actually reply to him, after he had tried to use the odd little box to call for help after getting stuck at the dizzying height he had propelled himself up to. A moment of distraction went a long way; a long way down. Luffy had tumbled off the edge, caught hold of something, then lost his grip and fell again!
He was safe again, at least for the moment, but back at the top again, he looked perfectly panicked, his eyes drawn wide with shock. Once he regained his breath, he was greeted by a very inquisitive little smile, followed by another, this one a bit more...'toothy'.
Despite their appearances and apparent abilities, Luffy didn't seem one bit surprised. Instead, he smiled warmly at them both, his eyes softly shut as he grinned from ear to ear. "Naa, hello there. Are you guys stuck up here, too?"
It was an understandably strange question, but Luffy didn't seem to think much of it.
