Shipping on the High Seas

Fuck me.

That was probably the best three fucks physically possible by human beings.

(Oh yeah, we went twice more off screen.)

After Robin had dinged for me she was insatiable. The list of things she could do with her devil fruit when motivated was long, amazing, and sexy as hell. I'd had tongues sprout out of places I'd never dreamed would get licked. An ocean of body parts to have my way with. I'd been pinned down, taunted, assisted, rebuked, stroked, molested, gagged... anything and everything was on the table when you've got a gal like Robin.

And I wasn't a slack in the sack either. I'd massaged this woman's soul to the brink of madness, cured years of muscular tension in the arms she used for everything, and used my dick to stroke her insides with such precision engineering that I could make a topical map of her pussy from memory.

I was enjoying the feeling of Robin curled around me. I was winding down personally, the fun of the last few hours guiding me to a slumber well earned. She was clearly tired as well, barely able to raise her head off the pillow... but something was wrong. Robin's face had stayed flushed, a low pant as the heat in her body just never stopped rising no matter how many orgasms she experienced... and I think I realised why when Robin 2 reformed to sniff Robin 1's cunt. The clone losing herself to pure lust as the normality I'd set upon it to feel hotter from the smell of cum drove further desire into the room.

"Okay, calm down handsy." I remarked while shifting Robin 2 away from our connected crotches. "Sorry I didn't notice sooner. Let's fix this and not get into a logic loop, normally cum only works as an aphrodisiac if I say it does, and right now; it doesn't."

And thus, the world breathed a universal sigh of relief.

For your viewing pleasure, a list of updates from the world once this latest normality occured:

• Usopp finally stopped jizzing into Nami, the two collapsing onto the Sunny's bed. Nami definitely wasn't upset about the amount of hot frothy cum inside and out of her.
• Hancock and Marguerite were still recovering from Luffy's ****. He was feeling refreshed and bouncy, eager to perhaps go another round.
• Ran had waited too long for a shot at Rindo to not keep the momentum going just a little longer, even when the scent of cum stopped guiding them forward, Ran ran through anyway.
• The rest of the Kuja had just collapsed where they were on the boat. Most cuddling with their feminine friends as the quiet night air stole their conciseness'.
• Perona was much more content with her Zoro pillow than the wooden boat. Neither bothered thinking about the ramifications of what happened. The sex was great, who cares about anything else.
• The scratching outside Sanji's door finally stopped.
• Hack found Koala and Sabo in each other's arms the next morning, curled up on the gym matt together.
• Monet was finally freed from her mask, and began following Law around the compound. Leaving Caesar grumbling about a ruined experiment, vowing **** on the one who turned off the aphrodisiac effect of cum.
• Tashigi calmed down enough to realise what she'd done. And though she dinged for Smoker, neither of them could looked each other in the eye as she excused herself quietly.
• Shakki and Rayleigh were still talking about the future.
• Hina was sucking cock, too far gone to care anymore. It was her third time being hypnotised now and her mind was falling in love every time it happened.
• Mikita and Zala were finishing up cleaning out each other's pussies as they arrived at their destination across the bay.
• Yamato was locked in chains, forbidden from trying to find the man to make her ding. For the Son of Kaidou was not to be stolen from him so easily, the Oden-wannabe needing to learn respect from a sexual drought.
• Belo Betty had **** a good number of revolutionaries to gangbang her.
• Bonney was finally full and lying in her bed. Her chef was having a bad time trying to sleep underneath her, the pinknette's drool poured down his face.
• Kalifa walked away from the **** Spandam, unsatisfied and undinged.
• Viola's pussy was reaffirming it's love for the lonely man's huge snake it had found.
• Alvida fucked Mr 3 and Buggy into submission. Both hearing a ding from the aggressive pirate. She was impressed that the sound had happened, perhaps she could find a use for them yet...
• The ex-Miss Monday had quietly reaffirmed her love with the ex-Mr 9 in the town of Whiskey Peak as their child slept in the other room.
• Catarina Devon had fucked or sucked every single one of Blackbeard's subordinates, even if they didn't realise it.
• Ulti curled up on Page One in the middle of the mansion. The floor as broken as he was.
• Vivi hadn't rung with her father, nor the three guards outside, but she was at least content enough to call it a night. Thinking about how she knew her quest would bring her to the ones she truly hoped would claim her, looking down at the X mark on her arm with hope.
• Reiju was thankful her awful Father and Brothers couldn't try it on with her, but saddened her Father had banned her from touching the male help as well. Though that didn't stop her from secretly taking Cosette back to her room for the evening. Exclaiming 'I need lady!' to her new pet.
• Brook had been **** to satisfy the four women that had burst into his room. How did he do it? I'll leave that one to your imaginations.
• Sadi-Chan was now engaged to Magellan, much to his confusion. Domino had found a new pet/fuck friend in Whitey Bay and the two spent the next few hours doing body checks.

• ---

Robin's face finally returned to looking human again. The pant of desperation being replaced by a smile of satisfaction. With a quiet exhausted voice she mumbled to me: "t-thank you... f -yawn- for turning it off...."

"No problem." I smiled at her, bringing her body closer to mine to squeeze her lovely curves against me and kiss her forehead.

One more long sigh escaped Robin's lips. "I... had fun..." I could tell she was barely clinging to reality, and I just whispered back to her we'll chat more in the morning. Agreeing that tonight was a lot of fun, and now we had the rest of our lives to talk about what happens next...

Barely an hour later I heard a crash from on the ship. My revolutionary training kicked in, launching me from slumber and on full alert mode in case someone was here on board.

"Don't worry Robin." I hissed, "I'll take care of-and she's gone." I remarked to an empty bed.

What the hell? Where had Robin gone off to? I bundled on some clothes to protect me from the cold night air and headed out to find why she'd left our bed.

I found her rather quickly, since it's such a small boat after all, leaving the cargo hold with a worried look.

"Robin? You good?" Was the quiet question I asked to let myself be known. Something that made her jump and slam the door to the cargo hold violently behind her.

"N-Natsuo! You startled me, I was... looking for the bathroom and got turned around in the night."

I frowned at the obvious lie, no way Robin was in any way lost. She was way way way too smart for that, but I suppose I didn't want to pry either. "Oookay? Um, did you want to find what you were looking for?" Pointing the way to our ship's bathroom.

But something about my word choice was clearly wrong, as her demeanour became rather crestfallen once more. "No, I... I couldn't find it..."

Which, again, I wouldn't have pried on. Except a single tear rolled down her cheek.

I was by her side in an instant. "Hey woah, what’s the matter?"

Robin looked at me slightly startled as if she hadn't realised she'd done that and quickly wiped her face. "N-nothing! Please, let's just return to the bedroom."

I frowned at the deflection, "Robin. What’s up? Did I do something wrong?"

She smiled sweetly at me but still sighed with watery eyes. I had to watch as Robin left my side and walked over to the railing of the ship and sat down on the edge.

"I’m sorry to have worried you. But I suppose there's no point running from the truth..." she began but instantly trailed off. Then Robin lightly patted the seat next her, prompting me to sit. Our hands interlocked on the railing, and I lightly stroked her soft fingers as I waited for her to share. When the archaeologist was looking at me her face showed that she was clearly upset but trying to make me feel better with a smile, probably because of how worried I was looking right now.

After a beat, and a gathering of her courage, she stared into my eyes and told me the truth.

"I was looking for morning after pills."

...

"...w-what?"

"There’s none on the boat. And we’re too far from any civilization that would have a pharmacy or proper medicine."

My hands waved to stop this sudden barrelling conversation. “Wait wait wait! Morning after pills?! D-do you don’t want to be pregnant? But you dinged!” She looked back out to sea, a guilty look on her beautiful face.

"Yes... but..."

That 'but' was all I needed, clearly my powers had pushed her way too far, I quickly jumped off the railing to leave. "I'm sorry... I must have... misread the signals." I babbled, but found that I couldn't escape from this rejection if I tried, Robin using her powers to keep me from running.

She turned me to look at her, another brave faced frown still coming through so clearly in the pale moonlight. "Please, let me finish at least." She asked politely, waiting until I nodded in affirmation to continue.

Robin rubbed her mons, looking both wistful and content at the same time. "I’m very happy you impregnated me Natsuo, truly I am. To think I would be considering spending my life with you so soon after our travelling together…" She trailed off and I gulped at the oncoming but. "...but I can't help but think about the child's future. A life of a Pirate... not to mention how it will affect this tumultuous present, everything I need to give up to have a child." This was perhaps the most flustered I'd seen her, rambling about all her worries nearly on top of each other. "Considering the usual recommendations of a nine month pregnancy, it wouldn’t be responsible of me to spend more than a month or two on the sea before having to abandon my friends. I don’t want anything bad to happen to the baby, nor do I want to stop travelling with them… I’ll just need to give up a lot. I was hoping that I could at least give myself more time… or at least a better choice."

"I see…" I mumbled but only as a noise to cover this gutpunch of a feeling inside me. God I’m a dick. Originally I was going to use the earrings to have some frisky fun with a hottie and let her get back to her life. But ever since my heart got set on claiming her I was on a warpath, I never even gave her a chance to choose really. I was just a child with his first taste of power and freedom after so long that my mind didn't even realise I'd ruined her life before it was already done...

But she rubbed my back with her many hands to calm my worries. "I didn't mean you were the wrong choice. Just that if it were up to me we would have waited before growing a new life into this chaotic world." Robin continued. "My mother was **** to give me to a family that hated me because she had to go protect the world, and I only met her once before she died. I always thought that if I had a child of my own, I would promise to keep them safe and never leave their side… but now that it’s here, I’m just not sure I can promise them that." She sighed again. A worthy attempt to let the emotions out without them coming through her tear ducts, but an attempt that was slowly failing as more of her face became damp with tears. "The monsters and tyrants we face. The Marines that will hunt me to the ends of the Earth... Luffy can only stretch himself so far when it comes to protecting us. As adults, we're all sturdy enough that we can manage, but a baby isn't."

"B-but, won’t it be safer to just run? I’ll keep you and the baby protected, you’ll never have to worry about being hunted by the government or an evil pirate or anyone! We can have a quiet life somewhere…"

She had to take this offer. This Luffy guy clearly wasn't up to actually protecting her if she was like this. No way I was going to let someone so amazing and beautiful risk their life for something as stupid as following some kid to become 'King of the Pirates' or whatever stupid shit. This world is absolutely batshit insane, I've seen it from Dragon himself. And with Robin's past and ability to read the Poneglyphs meaning all the Yonkou and the Government is after her?! There's not a ship in the universe that can protect her without powers like mine. I have to... I have to keep Robin safe.

Her lips curled ever so slightly at me. "It’s a lovely offer Natuso, but not a life I see myself having."

Dammit, I really didn't want to do this. She should be smart enough to know my idea is the safest way, that living quietly secures survival...

"But…" Oh man, am I really doing this? "...isn’t it… normal for you to accept?"

She once again looked out to the far ocean. "It would be."

Phew, seems that's all taken care of. Sorry to use the earrings like this but ends justify the means and all that. “So that means...?” I asked with anticipation, expecting her answer to obviously now be-

"It means I refuse."

...

"...eh?"

"I would, under normal circumstances, leave it all behind and go live with you to be safe. But I cannot leave my friends, for any reason. Luffy is the man who will become the Pirate King, and I want to help him. For everything he's done for me and more. And I have my own dream to find the history of the world. To follow in the wishes of my homeland of Ohara, and my Mother. I feel that I must journey with Luffy to find this dream, so I apologise but staying still to be safe doesn't sound proactive in the life I want to lead." She explained, adamancy growing at her life's purpose. Something I'd never really had myself... But doubts suddenly surfaced for her in her features. "He’s been waiting two years to begin his journey again, it’d be a selfish request but perhaps he’d allow me to wait just nine months more…"

Robin looked sadly out to the ocean. Rubbing her stomach with a list of regrets on her face.

And I was definitely on that list.

...fuck.

Fucking fuck.

Nothing about this was fair to her. I’d scooped her up and made her mine without really stopping to think about what I was doing. She’s more than just an hourglass figure and an amazing set of powers.

And I owed it to her to make this right.

I threw myself out of her hand trap. Stomping my way around the ship to somewhere quiet as I thought about the way to word my ideas.

"Alright let’s see if I can do this." I mumbled to myself, looking skyward to enact my plan.

"I use the power of this relic to demand a new order on the world! It is normal for women to have twenty four hours after sex to choose if they become impregnated. With their impregnated eggs they can then choose to hold on to the sperm indefinitely before letting it descend and form into a child. Normally the eggs and the womb are completely safe from all damage occurring on a woman. When she does choose to have the baby, normally no matter what happens to the woman the baby shall be completely safe inside her, and be born healthy and happy with no birth defects whatsoever."

"Well."

"Yeah. That happened."

Nami was leaning her head on Usopp's chest. Both had been panting for a while but were coming down off their sexual high.

Nami subtly nodded. "...it’s not a safe day for me by the way." Usopp gulped, honestly with the amount he’d pumped into her and the ding… he’d sort of been running on the assumption it was inevitable. No way you cum that much in a girl and don't make her pregnant but the confirmation was still a big thing for him. A child... with Nami... The only thing left to know was Nami’s choice on whether she'd want to- "and… I think I want to keep it."

A breath caught in his throat, nearly making him **** on nothing. "R-really?!"

"Yeah..." She sighed, frowning at the wall at the implication of her own words. "Not bring it all the way to term just yet. But, like, when it's all said and done, and Luffy's found the One Piece... I think I want to have a kid. This is just the head start impregnation I guess."

The two lay there for another five minutes. Each thinking of what to say in a situation like this.

Nami was the first one of them brave enough to speak up. "So what are we going to do about… us?"

Usopp blew air out his lips as that question swirled in his mind. "...I dunno. I never thought this was gonna happen even when I was opening that door to this room. I definitely never thought I’d hear that ding…”

Nami rolled her eyes with a high degree of annoyance. "I know you’ve got a low self-worth thing going on right now but… just, quit it, okay?"

Usopp rose a smirk and an eyebrow to that. "'Just quit it?'"

"Yes." She basically commanded, and since it was Nami, Usopp thought it might actually work to cure his anxiety if only to not anger her further. Her expression did soften a little though. "Look... it would have taken a few proper dates, and a few rounds of amazing sex like we just had, but I don’t think this was as impossible as you think." Nami explained, firstly just trailing her fingers on his new muscular body, and then looking into his eyes for full emotional impact of her words. "You’re my best friend on the crew Usopp. Having another girl with Robin is nice, and I miss Vivi, but everyone else is either too much of a goofball or a weirdo for me to have the kind of long chats we have… I know you think you’re not my type or something, but… I wouldn't have just slept with you cause you were here either. So if you managed to seduce someone as sexy as me you should just quit it, got it?"

Usopp was gobsmacked. Silent.

Happy.

Nami squirmed next to him, looking away awkwardly. "...do you want me to keep it?"

Usopp just blinked in confusion. "...eh?"

She punched him hard in the shoulder. "Oh come on you fucking idiot, don’t make me spell it out for you." Nami fumed at him then folded her arms and turned in the bed to lay down facing away from him. "I practically **** myself on you tonight! Just tell me you had always hoped that your first time would be with that girl from your village and I won’t keep the baby! I can handle it! If you think you’d be happier with her than me... then my pussy will just have to find some other cock to love…"

This was all going way too fast for the sniper's ex-virginity snuggle, Usopp wore a very concerned expression as he looked to Nami's back and thought of what to say. He considered Kaya, the fair maiden in the mansion on the hill. The nights he’d spend coming up with stories for her. Had he wanted to sleep with her? It had been so long since they'd even seen each other... nowadays there was only one person on his mind when he thought about it...

"Nami…" He mumbled, her new long orange hair not moving until he told her what she wanted to hear. "I'm no good at this stuff, really. B-but there is something I am good at instead, so if you don't mind, I could tell you a story?

She looked over her shoulder, still upset but looking like she was willing to listen.

"It's a story about a lonely boy lacking parents and money on a quiet little island, meeting a lonely but amazing girl that was willing to take on the world to save her village. It's a pretty interesting plot, filled with the villainous monsters they faced as Pirates, the friendly monsters they were friends with, and the quiet monsters... the two shared with each other on quiet nights that each had inside them after everything they’ve been through…" He sighed, not even noticing Nami spin slowly as he spun his tale. "A story… about how much you mean to me. The normal girl and the normal boy on the ship of Titans. Our friendship that gave me the courage to defeat every monster we faced. To win fights that, on paper, look absolutely fucking impossible. Seriously, how we went up against a literal God and lived is still a pants-wetting nightmare to this day."

She giggled at him, Usopp knew mentioning urine made this a probable contender for top 10 worst confessions ever, but her smile made him not care about that at all.

"I don't think I really realised it, but I think out of everyone I thought about when I was trapped on that scary plant island... it wasn't Luffy, or Kaya, or even... my mom's, but your face that kept bringing me up when I felt my lowest. I may think I must have eaten some weird luck based devil fruit for you to have said those things to me, but as a brave warrior of the sea I'm not going to hide from you or my feelings either. I've always wanted a kid too, and if I get to have it with the great Cat Burglar Nami then maybe I'm doing alright."

Nami had already turned her body around again by the time he'd finished but now she was snuggling into a kiss again. "That was a nice story." She hummed into his chest. "I won’t spoil how it ends. You’ll have to wait and see."

"That’s fine by me." Usopp chuckled as the two melded into one in each other's arms.

"You're planning to betray Doflamingo, aren't you?"

Law frowned at the harpy. She'd finally come down off her high and was wrapping the warlord in her soft wings. He'd planned to just put her in her bed and return to his room but her talons had stopped him in his tracks and her soft snowy embrace had kept him here.

"Are we going to have a problem if I do?"

"None at all." Monet smiled softly. "I'll follow the one that claimed me till the ends of the earth, if he'll have me?"

Law raised an eyebrow to her, studying the smile for any insincerity. After a few minutes of staring he finally sighed, relenting to her happy harpy giggle.

"Welcome to the Heart Pirates."

Marguerite was nearly completely ****, but her Queen had recovered being so very happy with what had happened she was brimming with excitement. Boa Hancock giggled at the feeling of hot cream inside her womb. Luffy's hot cream. The type of baby making cream to make babies with. She was going to have Luffy's baby. All that needed to happen now was to decide when to have the child... and to find out if the future Pirate King wanted to have it too.

She bowed her head slightly, getting Luffy's attention as he ate another energy refreshing plate of fruit. "Luffy, my husband, I just want-"

"Not your husband." He reminded her as he chomped through another full pineapple.

She frowned, "Um, actually Luffy. I'm afraid we are definitely married now that you've filled me with your thick milk."

"WHAT?! THAT was marriage!?" He exclaimed, spitting out a grape in surprise.

"Yes Luffy, my husband." She repeated, loving the way it sounded on her mouth. But he was too busy huffing in annoyance to notice.

"You said it was a game! I said I didn’t want to be your husband!”

Boa looked a little worried at his frustration, hoping she had not gone too far with him. “But we have consummated the marriage! It is binding forever, my love.”

The boy threw an apple carcass out the window then crossed his arms in fuming annoyance. "Dang it! You tricked me Hancock."

Boa Hancock frowned with concern at her new husband. Slinking slowly over to him on the end of the bed and resting a hand on his knee.

"Please, tell me this Luffy… why do you not want me to be your wife?"

Luffy gave her an eye, still keeping a pout and crossed arms but at least still speaking to her. "Rayleigh told me marriage was a thing you only do after you finish your journey. That otherwise I’d be labelled as your husband rather than my own man and Pirate King."

Boa grit her teeth behind her clenched mouth. Very tempted to snap the old man like a twig next time she saw him for daring to mess with her future happiness.

"T-then, why don’t we keep it a secret?" She desperately reasoned, trying to keep this happiness she'd found. "You’ll know I belong to you, but the world will think us still enemies! It’ll be better for me too, since then I can keep my warlord status with the marines and-"

"NO WAY!"

She blinked at him. He'd yelled directly in her face but didn't seem malicious about it, a fierce but compassionate look in his eyes as he stared into her soul.

"Rayleigh also said that when you marry someone you gotta put your all into it! It’s gotta be with someone you love and cherish for the rest of time! I told him that’s a lot of people for me, but he said I’d know I’d found the right person if I knew. So if you're my wife, I can’t ever keep that a secret!" He proclaimed proudly. Grabbing his treasured Straw Hat from the side table and slamming it onto his bride’s head. "Besides, I’m no good at keeping secrets. Like when I told everyone about the dream Usopp had where-"

Hancock’s breathing slowed right down. Taking in the breadth of what had just happened to her. Emotions swelling and growing until she couldn’t hold it in anymore.

Luffy’s eyes went wide when tears streamed down the warlord’s face.

"Oh shoot, did I hurt you?"

She softly chuckled but it did not stop crying. "No you stupid man…" Hancock sobbed, "I-it’s just…"

Boa looked back at the blissed out Marguerite, then brought a single finger to her lips before lowering a small pink heart onto her leg, turning the woman to stone.

"HEY! WHAT ARE YOU-?!"

The crying Hancock just embraced him through the anger. He didn’t push her away, but still seemed on edge from the attack.

"Luffy, please. S-she’ll be fine, I’ll turn her back and she won’t even notice she’s been a statue. I just... needed to talk with you in private, and I didn’t want to kick her out."

Luffy frowned, but accepted the reasoning.

"You asked me why I'm crying, but the answer is much deeper than a simple sentence. F-for a while now… I feared y-you... hated me."

He blinked at her in utter confusion. "Huh? Why’d you think that?"

"Back when we met, you saw the symbol on my skin I loathe so much. You saw proof of what I was, of the broken mess I am, and you then refused to fall for my Love Love fruit's powers." She bawled, uselessly wiping tears back on her face as more took their place. "And I kept those worries back, thinking you were just so strong that you could avoid it. But every time I tried to show you affection you rebuked me. Rejected me. So then, the fears grew… fear that you saw a disgusting, used woman, and could not see passed her past… that the Celestial Dragons ruined all my future happiness as well… that maybe in this world of millions fawning at my feet... I’m… unlovabl-"

The empress nearly broke down even further but was interrupted by a pair of lips sealing her own.

Her eyes wide in surprise, she barely even computed it happened, let alone truly enjoy it.

"A-a k-kiss?" she stammered.

"It was the only way to make you stop saying all that bad stuff about yourself." He frowned, earning a tearful stare from Hancock. "You should stop worrying about what I might be thinking and listen to what I say right now! You are my wife Hancock and I love you! That’s all you need to know!"

With big rubbery arms he wrapped himself tightly around Hancock and brought her in close. Squeezing the snake princess like her iconic animal and pushing her head into his chest. Tears of sadness mixing with tears of joy as she wrapped her own arms around him. "Thank you so much for accepting this moronic woman Luffy! I love you with all my heart, now and forever!"

"Shishishi! Of course!"

The two stayed locked in each other. Tears covering the chest of the future pirate king as he happily accepted the pain of his bride, rubbing her back tenderly. And also vowing to definitely kick the asses of the Celestial Dragons at some point.

It was a pretty big change, but you know what? Fuck it. No more unhealthy babies for my girl. Robin said that there weren't any big civilizations near us... I don’t know how big the area of effect on these earrings are. Probably just a few meters or something. It wouldn't make sense that a tiny earring could affect anything further than that, even with its 'ancient relic' status.

"Natsuo-san." Came a voice that threw me from my thinking. The amazing body in silhouetted in the moonlight still stunned me to my core as Nico Robin approached me. "I'm still waiting on your answer."

"Oh, uh, right!" I babbled, realising the new rules I'd imposed needed something like that. I took a breath before giving my honest answer. "Look, if you don't want to have my kid its your choice. Right now or at all. I still really like you, and I hope we can have more fun before you go back to your crew, but a child is a huge thing so I won't get upset again if you just want to not follow through with the fertilised egg."

She'd bridged the gap between us before I'd even realised she'd moved. Wrapping me in her arms and leaning her cheek on my forehead. "Thank you Natsuo-san. I'm sorry for my own upset feelings, I suppose I thought you’d want me to have the baby now, but it sounds like you respect me enough to let me hold onto your semen while I journeyed with my friends."

I rubbed her back a little before twigging what she'd said. "S-so you do want to hold onto it? A baby? With me?"

She giggled at my enthusiasm. "Of course. As long as nothing ghastly happens to me and I become a smouldering corpse, then I promise to return to you wherever you might be hiding."

I frowned at her, not really liking the sound of that.

"Apologies." She giggled at her dark joke. God, she's such a cutie.

We walked together back to the bedroom slowly, enjoying the rocking of the ship and the fresh air of the night. "What happens if you never stop running? What if your adventures go on for years and years?"

She considered it. "When that happens, may I leave the child in your care? If you so desperately wish to hide from the world then I would rest a little easier knowing they’d be safe with you."

A life of just me and my kid? I guess, there's definitely worse places to be if I can set myself up somewhere ni-

"Unless of course, you don’t wish to... leave my side?"

She looked at me with hope. With a longing in her eyes that told me she didn't want our fun to end just yet either. I know because it was the look I was giving her this entire evening.

"Well, yeah. I really don’t want to leave you, that’s why I want you to come with me…”

"And I want you to come with me."

I blinked at her, "H-huh? That would mean…?"

She nodded, her beautiful smile returning as she saw me consider her offer. "We’ve been needing a masseuse."

Me? A pirate? Another enemy of the Marines, following the orders of a Captain, surrounded by other freaks of the world? Didn't I just escape that situation? "I literally just left the revolutionaries because I thought the management was too cruel and wanted a change of pace. To become a pirate so soon afterwards."

Robin nodded at my concerns comfortingly, but still tried to reason herself out. "Despite our reputation with the government, I don't think there's a group of **** souls on the seven seas than the Straw Hat Pirates. Truly, if you are looking for your place in the world then I can think of no better place to start."

The Straw Hats... led by the son of Dragon. Fuck my life. This was an awful idea. I can't believe I might be under the command of another Monkey D.

Anxiety for the situation began flaring up. I've never been good at making friends, I'm not an adept fighter, nor am I looking to go on an adventure for a lifelong dream. I'm just a shithead who met a pretty girl. But the way Robin looked at me made all those worries kinda meaningless.

"...would Luffy even accept me?"

Her body quickly melded into mine, as if her words had been bait and her body was the hook to drag me into this life. She whispered sensually in my ear. "Don’t worry about him. Focus on all the time we’ll be able to spend together."

Well gang, I can tell you that her technique worked hook line and sinker. I guess if they really don’t want me, or if things get too dangerous, I can bail pretty easily with this earring. And I really didn’t want to lose Robin. If I went off to live the high life then found out she’d died while I was living in luxury... I wouldn’t be able to forgive myself.

"Alright, guess I’ll meet with him at least."

Woah, feelings.

And yeah, this thread isn't dead. I just wanted to provide a** much more sweet and relationshippy chapter just in time for Christmas. Hopefully it's to everyone's liking.**

That'll be the last we see of a grand majority of supporting casts unless they appear after the timeskip. We're going to be converging everyone at Sabaody in the next few chapters.

Final question, what did people think of the ding thing? Thought it'd be an interesting way for characters to lay claim to each other but the dropoff of interest on those chapters was immense. It might just be too much sex in the last two chapters but if it really is a hated idea I don't mind rewriting it to be something other than a 'ding', maybe just a **** exclamation of their desire? Like what Aqua did with Kazuma in my other thread.
