First Mate: A Coinpin Story

Yoyleland Bonding

PIN'S POV

I started the van and started to drive to Yoyleland. It was pretty quiet for awhile until Coiny spoke up. "So, what are you hoping happens when we start sailing?" He looked out the window.
"Well, uh, I'm not sure. I do hope we actually find good treasure!" I answered.
"Like treasure as in money, diamonds, and stuff? Or like treasure to remember the adventure you went through to get it?" He asked.
"Hm.. for the last part, do you mean like, we went on some great adventure, and we end up getting something... worn out or lame? For example.. maybe a scarf, but see it as treasure because of what we went through to get it?" I asked, making what he said seem like a way more complicated question than what it actually was.
Coiny laughed, "Yeah, Pin."
"Well, then, I'd have to go with both! Or either, I really don't mind." I said as we started to get closer to Yoyle City. "How about you?" I glanced over to him before looking back at the road.
"Me? Um," Coiny thought for a moment, "I hope that... hmmm.... I hope that we can fight something cool, like a giant monster! Oh! What if we come across a sea monster? I would beat the heck out of it!" Coiny started punching the air as if he was fighting something.

I laughed at Coiny's silliness. That's what I love about coiny, he's silly and fun to be around, he is also super thoughtful. That's why he's my best friend! "I wonder if we'll meet anyone during our pirate trip." Coiny said. "Oh, I hope so! It'd be nice to have new friends." I said. We finally made it to Yoyle City, now we're getting closer to the part of Yoyleland with the most and best yoyle berries. "Oh my mint, I forgot just how big Yoyle City is." Coiny said, looking at the scenery around us. "Yeah it's pretty big, I wonder what happened to it for it to become abandoned." I looked around while still keeping my eyes on the road. "Yeah, me too." Coiny stated.

COINY'S POV

We've been driving for awhile, and I was having trouble thinking of topics to talk about. I decided to turn on the radio to fill in the silence, but what came on was some song that sounded like it was made for teenage girls that played REALLY  loud. It scared both me and Pin, causing her to swerve a little. "WOAH, WHAT IS THAT?!" Pin shouted trying to make her voice heard over the radio. I turned down the volume to a reasonable level where we can hear eachother. "I had no idea that it'd be that loud! What is even playing?" I asked. I looked at the name of the song that was playing on the van's screen. I laughed a little and said, "It's made by somebody called 'Naily Polish,' huh, sounds like something edgy teens would listen to." Pin looked at the screen then back at the road. "Oh, I've heard her songs before, yeah I'm pretty sure edgy teens are her main demographic, but a lot of people listen to her so it's not too hard to think that Freesmart would listen too." Pin explained.

We were starting to get close to where the yoyle berries grow. "I wonder if we'll encounter any other pirates when we go." I said.
" Yeah that'd be cool!"
"Maybe we would have to fight them!" I pretended that I had a sword and that I was swinging it at someone, resulting in Pin laughing. I love making Pin laugh. "What's with you and wanting to fight things?"

PIN'S POV

Coiny was fidgeting around with stuff in the van to see if there was anything interesting, as I was guessing he was bored. "Oh, look," Coiny pulled sunglasses out from under the backseat and put them on. "I found sunglasses." I laughed when I looked at him because the sunglasses he was wearing were super stylish and nothing I'd expect coiny to wear, plus they really didn't fit him. "I'm going to go into the back to see if there's anything else." He took off his seatbelt and climbed into the back of the van. "Coiny, come back up here and buckle back up, I don't want you getting hurt, plus we shouldn't be messing with their stuff." I yelled. "Calm it, Pin, it'll be fine." Coiny said while messing through their stuff. I looked back at what he was doing. "Coiny, seriously, come back up here!" Coiny looked up at me, about to rebuttal, but then gasped and yelled, "PIN, STOP!" While pointing at the road in front of me. I turned back around and saw I was about to ram into a sign. I let out a yelp before slamming on the brakes. The van came to a stop, barely missing the sign. Coiny screamed as he flew right into the seat in front of him.

"Oh my pin factory, Coiny are you okay?!" I parked the van where we were, unbuckled myself and climbed into the backseat. I grabbed Coiny and set him into the seat next to him. "Woof, yeah, I'm fine, it didn't hurt... buuuut I did break the glasses." Coiny held up the glasses that he had been wearing. "Coiny, I told you to come back to the front seat!" I punched him in the arm. "Ow!" He laughed and said, "Sorry pin, I'll listen next time." I laughed and said, "Well, we're here according to that sign I almost crashed into." I said gesturing towards the sign. He looked at it. "Well, it's about time, let's go!" He said as he jumped out of the van. I got out of the van with a basket to collect the yoyle berries in.

We walked up to a yoyle berry bush and picked a few of the berries and put them in the basket. "Oh! I just thought about this, what if when we go back into Yoyle City we pick up some supplies to use during our pirate trip?" Coiny said as he picked berries. "That's a good idea, Coiny, we should." I said, while also picking berries. He leaned against a bush, smugly. "Of course it's a good idea, I'm the one who thought of it!" I laughed as i put a berry that i picked in the basket. "Says the one who unbuckled, climbed into the back of the van, and face planted into one of the seats." I responded, my free hand placed on my side. "Alright, you got me there." I laughed at his response and we continued picking berries.
