Yeah, it was supposed to lead more in with the Movie night thing, If I were doing 3 comics a week I would have done this in 2 parts- but since im not splitting it into 2 parts would have been- well just mean to people seeing where it was going and then not see any kind of in-comic payoff. Time line though it’s correct- it’s later in the day after the movie night. Nami “slept in” after the busy time from the previous day and stayed up late for the movie night.
This is cannon. This happened. It’s in line with the time, but it does feel abrupt- if you didnt see the last thing with the twins as what it was- a last joke with them before moving on as everyone else moved on.
Wait, this actually happening or is this a non canon side, can’t think of a holiday this month, but the sudden scene change and how to the point it is screams how sage does holiday side stories. Definitely a long time coming but so suddenly addressed.
