[It's all right!]

"It's not!" Brook agreed before something came to mind. He tilted his head and wondered aloud at his friend, "Is it the only one you're using? You've had a few before, haven't you?"

While Brook hadn't heard Usopp using anything other than his own name, he'd heard enough about other times. Something about a sniper king came to mind, but there hadn't been a whole lot of elaboration during that conversation, and then there were all the stories the young man had told him! As much as he'd heard, there was the chance that Usopp wasn't even really his friend's name, but he would always give the benefit of the doubt. That's what friends did, after all.

"I've been doing well! That is, some strange things happen from time to time, but it's fine if you've got friends with you," Brook said cheerfully, following Usopp's cue towards the chairs, "Oh yes, we can sit if you'd rather not stand the whole time. Actually, I don't even know how long this visit is supposed to be for, do you?"

He didn't want Usopp to be worried that he was on his own at all. Those he knew from home weren't there, but he did have others. He'd recently made friends with Renji, and then young Anise was learning to play the recorder, and there were so many others. If he got the chance, he'd have to tell Usopp about them.
