Luffy lets him tumble a bit, then catches him, wrapping him up in stretchy arms to break his fall. He let's his body snap back, bringing him closer, but let's go before he rockets into Danny. He grins at him, not the least bit bothered by the fact that his friend is in a heap.
Looks like you're going to need a lot of practice! Shi shi shi shi!
Don't worry, don't worry! It took me a while to get a hang of my powers when I first got them, too!
The rest of their training is fairly straight forward, and fun, with Luffy mostly being good natured and laughing throughout. Not at Danny but just clearly having fun in general.
At the end of it, he flops on the beach, relaxing in the sand. And, finally, he opens up a bit to his new friend.
This is fun. I like it hear. But, I really need to get back to my own world. Soon.
Danny had thankfully collapsed on the beach and shifted back to his human side after the training was complete, worn out from putting his powers to use. He glances over at his friend with concern.
"Your world? Is everything okay there?"
Danny was somewhat familiar with the dilemma. This was the reason he'd helped Varian with the portal.... although that hadn't gone well at all.
My brother's in trouble. He kind of needs help, a lot of it.
There's a slightly break in his voice, a small hitch of breath. His brother needs him and he's here, worlds away, with no idea how to get back.
But, even if I can't get back, he'll be okay! He has to. He's the strongest person I know, besides Shanks, and he promised me! No matter what happens, he'll never die.
"What kind of trouble? Is there anyone there who could help him?"
Because as far as Danny knew, once the people from other worlds arrived here that wasn't a way yet to send them back. He'd tried to help with a way to do that once.... and well, that's how the dinosaur incident happened.
"No, I get that. It sucks that you can't go there and help him yourself." And execution? That was awful and worrying and that was going to be keeping him up at night for a while.
"But if there's nothing we can do from here for now, at least there are some people who could help him, right?"
[And... there was no way back to people's home worlds from here. At least not right now. Danny had helped when Varian had tried to find a way, and they all knew how that had turned out. But Danny knew that pointing that out wouldn't be of any help here.]
If you ever find a way there to help him, I'll volunteer to do whatever I can.
[So many of Danny's friends were trapped here, kept away from their worlds. And he hated that there wasn't anything he could do to help them. ]h

No problem! Sorry this took so long to reply to

No worries~

Welp. That's not ominous at all.

He's the only brother I have left. It would suck to lose him too. I don't have a lot of family, even if I have a ton of friends.
