Don't ask where this came from, I just thought it was funny that Zoro and Sanji never needed anyone but each other for intimacy, and the one time they decide to invite someone else, they set off Law's paranoia
Candy walked arm in arm with Nami down the cobblestone streets, the town was stunning and picture esece, a lovely spot for a month long stay. A nice little vacation, she would have time to prepare and store some food for long times bettewen islands. The air smells of the flowers that line the streets, bees and hummingbirds flutter around drinking from the colorful array. She couldn't help but to wonder about the variety of honey the town might produce. They seemed to be prepping for some kind of festival. As they strung up granlends and set up boths.
"Welcome lovely ladies, would you like to try some of these lovely desserts?" A woman beckoned them over to look at an array of beautiful desserts, all with different flowers. "You two came just in time for our festival. It's nine days long, celebrating our goddesses reuniting. It also is celebrating spring and fertility." Robin will be thrilled, she will probably hunt down every bit of information on theses goddess. "Go ahead and pick out a dessert." The woman gestured to her array of desserts.
"Thank you my dear, these are as lovely as you are." Candy cooed before picking up a lovely light purple truffle with a small lavender on top. Taking a bite the white chocolate was well balanced with the floral notes of lavender. "Mm, that's wonderful." And would be easy to replicate.
"I'm glad you think so, here try this one it's my spasality " The women lifted two honeycomb candies with pressed peonies and rose petals.
The Honeycomb candy was almost crispy and powdered the way it almost turned to dust with a bite, so sweet with the notes from the flowers balancing it out. Chopper would adore it.
"Come on, you can come back to try more things later, I want to go shopping." Nami tugged her away and of course who were they to deny their lovey Nami anything.
Several bags later they stop in front of a lingerie store, beautiful and delicate lace bars and panties. This was the last stop before Candy would be meeting Zoro at the hotel room. If there was one thing Zoro could find other than booze it was them.
"Let's get you something sexy and new to wear tonight." Nami grabbed her hand, dragging her inside.
Candy loves the way silk and lace feels on her skin. Even their boxers were silk. They loved how gentle Zoro was removing each item kissing every inch of thier skin. Zoro treated Candy with such gentle care and consideration. The thought of tonight sent shudders down her spine. As they browsed the racks. They grabbed a few new pairs of panties to add to the collection. They lifted a lovely dark blue with white lace and placed it in their basket.
"Candy come look!" Nami called out beckoning them over. "I found something." Candy headed over to Nami who was holding up a dusky pink see though one piece with cascading roses. "Zoro's gonna to die when he sees you in this." Nami's eye gleemed wickedly.
Candy found themselves blushing, imagineingg the look on Zoro's face as he bore witness to Candy in this little scrap of fabric. She had to have it.
Zoro stood in front of the brick building, the flower beds in front of the large window jutting out from the building were overflowing with flowers of all shapes, sizes and colors. he could see a red headed women sitting just inside a book in hand. Library's and tarvens were always great for finding out info, he found the library first. He patted Wado’s sheath tucked against his hip with the other three of his own swords.
“wow Zoro it's a miracle, you found something on your own.” Kuina's sarcastic voice echoed in his head.
Zoro huffed and ignored her words, this was the right town, the one from the roumors, but he still had no idea where to go from here. Every witch was different, some lived in town among everyone else, he once found one living in the middle of swamp, and yet another who lived a mansion working for a rich overlord casting hexes on people who disgared with said overlord. Zoro headed inside, the bell jingling overhead as he opens the door, the library smelled of old paper, flowers and and the smokey scent of the fire place that warmed nthe large room. he glanced around at the large shevels overfilling with books, the red head in the window seat didn't even glanced up at him, a table by her side was covered in papers and maps. he stepped closer to a shelf, the wood was painted with flowers, and vines grew everywhere winding thire way up twords the ceiling, Zoro glanced at the titles.
“Entering Hikati”s Garden, The Magic, Medicine, and Mystery of Plant Spirit Witchcraft,” Zoro read alowed. “Bane Witch, the Art of Poison." was this not a regaler library?
“hello, traveling swordsmen, can I help you find something?” a blanck voice spoke behind him, he hadnt even heard nor sneced her until she spoke. Zoro palmed his swords, but he refused to draw them. He still needed information. It would be an awful idea to get kicked out of somewhere his first day. The women had long dark hair, erie blue eyes that popped against her tan skin. she hide an amused smile behind her hand but her eyes between her. “I am Miss. All Sunday, what is it that you seek?” he knew an alias when he heard one, he got the feeling giving her his name would be a big mistake.
“Roanin,” Zoro gave her a false name to use, he didn't yet trust her. “I’m chasing rumors about a powerful witch.” he watched as her eyes narrowed.
“Your reputation proceeds you…Roanin. What exactly do you plan to do with this witch? We protect our own here. You will receive no help if you wish to hunt down any witch or other being.” Zoro could feel the energy in the air shift, here the rustle of the vines and pages yet no wind blew. The women's eyes glowed as the magic gathered,
“Dont get yourself killed, by a few idiot.” Kuina in helpfully added her two senses in. “we both know we lack experience with the fea.” they were from a part of the east where the fea were uncommon, but they knew the basic rules.
“im not here to harm anyone." Zoro very slowly removed wado from his side and held her still sheated alfot. “im seeking help.” he held his breath as the magic began to die down, the women in front of him stared at wado her hand reaching out fingers hovering over the white saya. her eyes no longer a glow glanced up at him.
“I know who can possibly help free your friend from this rather nasty curse. but be warned if you harm them your friend would look lovely melted down into whatever my husband chooses, and your bones will fertilize my babies.” Miss Sunday dropped her hand. “come with me I'll take you there."
