[This is a very comfy forest, really. The sunlight's warm, and Katie curls up near a fallen branch and near faceplants into a patch of new spring flowers and waits for Snow White to maybe come dancing through her dreams, or Bambi, or maybe a couple rebel fighters on an awesome speeder bike chase that she can help with. Ewoks, even. Look, it's her dream, okay. She'll will one of these things into existence if she can manage it.
It takes her a long while to realise she's not actually sleeping, and that's ... a little concerning. Because to her knowledge she doesn't make a habit of going to sleep anywhere other than her very cozy bed, and she doesn't remember why she'd be out here.
Sleepwalking. All the way out here? Kidnapped. Her parents aren't rich. By aliens. That's a little better, but still kind of worrying. There's a distinct level of nervous settling over her now because she's entirely alone in the middle of a place she doesn't recognise, and she's just not adventurous enough to want to be out here without any obvious way of getting home.
It's not her fault, is it? She can't get into trouble if it's not her fault. (Is today a school day?)
It's when she staggers upright, still yawning, that her foot catches on the edge of something and she thumps back down to earth with a startled sound, turning to glare at whatever she'd touched (why are her feet bare?), and stares at the journal lying in the grass with her name stencilled on the front. And Katie reaches for it, because if it has her name maybe it has an explanation, and... the sight of it touches off muzzy memories of its own. Familiar, somehow.
So she opens it.

Oh. She knows what this is.]
[Voice]
...hello?
[Action]
And I take it the fish meets your approval?

[And she's finished. 8|a This is a hopeful look. You mentioned Sky Walks.]
[Action]
[He sees that hopeful look and stands up, nodding toward the front door. Sky Walks are best explained outside... where there is sky.]
[Action]
[Action]
And once they're out, he bends down, hunched over his knees] Alright, Katie-chan. I'm gonna need you to climb on my back and hold on tight.

[Action]
[Just in case her grip is too lax, their lift-off is as gentle as he can make it, and soon he has both of them hopping along their merry way, higher and higher into the air]
no subject
jksasfa you're actually flying--] How are you doing that?
[BEST VIEW. OH GOD DON'T LET ME GO D8 /cling]
no subject
It's Sky Walk! I'm kicking my feet off the air. [One Piece logic; just roll with it, sweetie, if you can. Sanji adjusts the course, leveling out the angle of his jumps so they're jumping linearly along the beach's coast.]
Don't worry, we won't fall~!

Absolutely! [Sanji angles them both for a higher trajectory, and away they go. At the speed he's going, it doesn't take long before they touch upon the lowest hanging clouds.
Though that said, they are at an atrocious height now. Sanji hopes it doesn't end up scaring the girl on his back.]
no subject
That doesn't stop her from reaching out to try and touch the clouds, even if she is sort of blinking a little dizzily. Kinda got here in a hurry 8|a]
D'you think you could get right out of Luceti this way?
no subject
But I doubt it, unfortunately. I'm not the only guy here who can fly. [He glances down below them, at the large expanse of blue that is glittering faintly in the distance.]
