WHY ARE PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT MY FIANCÉ’S NUTS?! 💢

The captain perks up from where he's been doing whatever, "Oh! Hammock! You're far from home... did you get lost?"

Luffy gives a soft noise, hands turning for the ladybug, Lily, to crawl as she pleases, "Nah... beetles, yes. Bugs... eh.. not all bugs are as cool as beetles. Usopp probably knows more of other bugs, if you need to know, yeah?" He still keeps attached against Robin's side, snuggling quietly now ++

“you sure do know a lot about bugs huh . .” giggling at his comparison to the fluffy doctor.

It really does help. The touch, the contact. Even from someone not of his crew, but trusted enough. It helps. Touch starved, desperate to cling to those he cared for, willing to thrown down and fight literally the world for his precious people, but bound by this. Simple interactions. Simple ++

Needy, greedy, leaning into the touches as a man starved for them. For the contact and affection and just everything and anything. "...couldn't find anyone." It comes out more distress than he intended, but it's the truth! It had been so, oddly stressful at not being able to instantly pick up on ++

— instead, her thin fingers tangle in his hair, petting his mass of dark, midnight hair. “are you okay? what’s got you tearing up?”

No hesitation to lean in and pepper kisses over Zoro's face, anything to try and get across how important the swordsman was. He'd settle then, clinging and resting on Zoro's shoulder on the blind side, half because the gentle noises of his earrings were calming and half in an unspoken habit that ++

- I ain’t gonna tell anyone.”

Void-like eyes blink, turning to Law and scooting himself closer like an inch-worm. Those rubbery arms unwinding, but hesitating of all things to tangle around the other captain and instead bunch back up in his own shirt as they tremble. "...hurts, Torao... I can't find anyone..."

He wears a look of concern before he comes over to sit down near him. He's never seen him like this. "What's wrong. . "

Oh... he didn't realize what he was missing was so close by. Void-like dark eyes turn up at the voice, glassy with unshed tears. No hop for food, but a hop for the person, tripping twice and attaching around Sanji's waist to hide in her belly with a sniffle.

walks out of the galley, patting her forehead dry with a towel. she squints down at him, hand on her hip. ”luffy? i’m almost done with dinner.”

He's all wet sniffles and rolling around where he's at. A hand going to his scarred chest over and over, scratching and picking when he knows he shouldn't. Arms eventually wrap around himself three to four times in hopes of hugging away this feeling.

observing @mugiwarasenchou.bsky.social very quietly from a decent distance away. but he is staring quite intently.

"...it hurts so much to be alone." Luffy confesses into the holes of that helm, unable to see inside, but liking the quiet secrets that can be passed back and forth like this. It has it's own charm in some strange way. Fingers tap gentle, moving slow and tracing the stripes as he slowly centers ++

A bristling, a frustration... a fear. It rouses it's head in the form of tiny, sharp, little teeth that bite over fabric into Zoro's shoulder with a feral little growl as Luffy's body trembles and sobs more. It's not enough to draw blood. Enough to hurt, but not damage the swordsman. Sharp and ++

Used to being crawled on by his captain, he finished up the water and set it aside so he could wrap his strong around him. Nuzzling his nose against Luffy’s cheek to wipe up the tears, he grunted softly. “It’s ok.’M here now.”

The affection is soaked up with a gentle squeeze to Robin in return. His nakama were everything to him. Everything. He'd throw down for every and any single one of them. A family he'd somehow managed to cobble together with luck and persistence. "...Lily likes aphids. Or lettuce. Coccinellidae ++

her mind goes over a long list of flowers, searching for ones that would fit appropriately as a little ladybugs name. a stray hand gently patting the top of his strawhat as he seemingly melts further into her warmth. “lily is a cute name. let’s go with that.”

"'S always painful." Luffy pouts back but shamelessly leans into the hand, leeching anything he can get from it. "Being alone is the worst thing ever, Torao."

"Hm..." Law pinches his chin. "Seems you're pining for your friends. It's a painful sensation sometimes..." Hesitantly, he brushes hair away from Luffy's face, then pets him gently.

Killer isn't nakama. He's Gizao's nakama. Still... It's good energy either way. That odd aura, so like Zoro, that calls Luffy to crawl over the man and wrap around that helm to whisper secrets through it. That was fun. "Ne... Kira... what do you do when you miss Gizao and can't find him?"

"What are good flower names?" He muses back in a great impression of an indoor voice; though he's more into soaking up the contact and affection that came with just being close. Luffy's cheek squishes against Robin's arm, but he's thankfully, not wiping his nose on her. "Uh... Lily?"

ɴɪᴄᴏ ʀᴏʙɪɴ.@demonhistorian.bsky.social · last yr.

brows knit together when she hears him sniffle, the little hug he gives her was much gentler than his usual ones too— she wondered what was on his mind as she held out the ladybug towards him. “i was hoping you could help me out with that.”

Hands scramble over his own chest, over the mass of scarring as Luffy blinks just enough for tears to escape. Not outright bawling his eyes out, but something deeper. "...in here... hurts. Can't find anyone and it hurts. 'S dumb. But still hurts."

"Hurts? What does, Mugiwara-ya?" He crouches down beside him.

A perfect invitation. He's rough, not needing to be gentle, elbows and hands and knees as he purposely worms into Zoro's lap and clings to the swordsman. He knows Zoro won't make a sound about the loud sniffling or the wet spot of tears he's leaving on his shoulder. "...couldn't find you."

Sitting down beside of him without a word, he sipped on his bottle of water.

A wet sniffle, trying to hold himself together as rubber arms haul himself up and closer. He's gentle, oh, oh so gentle in smushing into her side and wrapping arms (just once, normally) around Robin's waist. "...what's her name?"

ɴɪᴄᴏ ʀᴏʙɪɴ.@demonhistorian.bsky.social · last yr.

cradling a ladybug between her hands as she sits down next to her captain. “luffy . . look what i found . .”

A wobbly, little wiggling of his lips. He's trying to hold himself together and he's not even sure why he's in a mood like this. "...Torao... it hurts..."

Sᵾɍǥɇৎ୭n øf ĐɇȺŧħ@deathsleopard.bsky.social · last yr.

Law stands above him, looking down with a skeptical look. "Weird not to see you cheery..."

Sprawled out with a huffing breath and a pout. ...he misses everyone.

A looong stare of dark eyes, pouting back at her. ... ...Luffy just turns his back and that hand is back up once more. What you can't see can't hurt you, right? "Got it! 𝘚𝘩𝘪𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘴𝘩𝘪!" Said booger is flicked away at least as he grins.

Then use a napkin to blow your nose… or your shirt… or dip your head in the water and blow it out…

"Grrr!" Bite bite bite! Leaving little marks in Ace's skin as they tussle. Those hands, sneaky and going for overpowered spots both get Luffy to let go and to squeal loudly. The crackers go all over the place as legs kick and Luffy wails a cackling laugh to the sky, ticklish, and trying to just ++

"O W what are you a piranha now-- gimme ONE! They always tasted so gooddd and crUMCHY" Still wrestling with him, though there's a goofy laugh spilling out of his teeth. Eager fingers are already trying a different tactic, squeezing into his arm pits and wiggling around. This is war.

Of course he never noticed, why would he? Ace wasn't 'dangerous' at all so why would even Haki pick up on his brother. It doesn't stop Luffy's strained noises though, squirming and trying to play keep away. "It's MINE! Ace!" Teeth try to bite at arms to ward off the older. "Jiji still eats them!"

( looking over immediately-- his nose caught it ) o i, share-- it's that stuff garp used to eat ain't it S H A R E ( already looping his arms around his brother's neck to manhandle his way towards the crackers )

That hand drops instantly like he's been caught with fingers in the kitchen. Toes wiggle, feeling the water catch him as he quickly steps back and dark eyes look over. "...IT'S CRUNCHY NAMIIIIIIIIII!!!! I DON'T LIKE IT!"

LUFFY! GET YOUR FINGER OUT OF YOUR NOSE!!

Sneezing obnoxiously and wiping his face on a sleeve... so many people are talking about him lately?

Sᵾɍǥɇৎ୭n øf ĐɇȺŧħ@deathsleopard.bsky.social · last yr.

@mugiwarasenchou.bsky.social He really really wants to see Luffy. Won't admit it tho.

Has a finger shoved up his nose somewhere, toes wiggling in the sand of some island, sandals held by this other hand and staring at the waves as they keep trying to catch his toes. Playing a weird game of tag with the ocean.

Shoving a literal handful of senbei into his maw in a single bite and chewing it with chipmunk cheeks before sneezing crumbs everywhere. Someone talking about him? He's facing the other way and too distracted by food.

𝙁𝙞𝙧𝙚𝙛𝙞𝙨𝙩 @portadinfierno.bsky.social · last yr.

giving into luffy when he pouts is a rookie mistake do it once, and you're his for life,

"Awww... boo! Not fair! Share Gizao! It's really cool so you should let me see it!" Steps are taken to follow, shuffling after and pouting at not getting to look at the cool metal arm. He's seen a few cool things Kidd could make, like Franky did, all of it sparked stars in Luffy's eyes.

He groaned as he was bounced off of, laying on the ground and glaring at Luffy. “I was, before- hey! Hands off!!” He scrambled to his feet, holding his arm away from the grabby boy.

Luffy's immediate response is to blow a raspberry, tongue out and fussing in disagreement, "Gizao's just jealous I bet! It's ok I can be secretive." He really can't. Food, however, proves to be the perfect distraction, shaking Luffy away from the rather sentimental conversation as he grins and ++
