🙶I love heroes, but I don’t wanna be one! Do you know what heroes are? Say there is a chunk of meat. Pirates will have a banquet and eat it, but heroes will share it with other people......I want all the meat! 🙷

Pirate ships, by Roelant Verhoeven, 2024
These pirate ships have such cool names!

Usopp saw a sea king at 3am
"What kind of future pirate king passes out after a couple of drinks?" Zoro pauses, gaze sliding over to Luffy's dipped shoulders, "Oi, Luffy--"
@thegreatestswordsman-zoro
He was moving, or rather someone was moving him, shaking, causing him to blink half-lidded at the wood he currently had his cheek squished against. It was cool and sturdy. Really strong too, seeing as it managed to keep his heavy head in place, which felt two sizes too big without him actually having activated his Gum-Gum Balloon. Zoro's words wafted into his ears, low and accusatory, earning an amused snort, followed by a hiccup.
"Naaah uh...."
He pressed further into the wood and away from his crewmate's calloused digits, body warm and tingly like taffy that's been left out in the sun too long; utterly uncaring of the all-out brawl that kicked off in the opposite corner.
"M not drunk......I don't drink like Zoro does...."

tangerine-tales:
"Luffy, for the last time, we cannot afford to buy meat right now—because SOMEONE thought it was a great idea to lose all our treasure on the last island! Care to explain how you managed to do that, Captain?"
Black eyes blinked at the navigator, once, twice; fully expecting her to just give in and add the extra supplies to their list like he wanted her to. When the wrinkles between her brows didn’t even out into acceptance, no matter how long he stared, he grumbled (or maybe it was just the pitiful wallow of his empty stomach) lip jutting out.
“But, Nami! I said I was sorry!”
If only it wasn’t so typical of her to still be mad over something that happened days ago- mad and stingy. Even now when it felt like his body was drying up and turning into a sea-sponge. “I’m starving. Why can’t you just buy it for me?” She always had Beli after all and used it for things that she already had lots of, like clothes and books. Maybe she could put it on that Zoro’s tab? Since it was the swordsman that suggested they take the detour that got them ambushed by the Jura. Those stupid birds were larger than some Sea-Kings and liked to hoard treasures and sun-bleached bones like dragons. At the thought of the giant birds, his eyes glazed over temporarily, his salivary glands causing spittle to generate at the corners of his mouth. Man, he bet they would have been really, really tasty. “This sucks. We should have stayed and punched them.”
Nami didn’t even look up from her ledger, the pen in her hand scratching deliberately slow across the page. It was the kind of quiet, seething calm that promised an incoming storm, and if Luffy wasn’t so dense, he might’ve recognized it as a warning. Instead, his whining hit her ears like nails on a chalkboard.
“Oh, you’re sorry?” Her voice dripped with mock surprise, eyes finally flicking up to meet his with the kind of withering glare that could silence even the rowdiest tavern brawl. “Wow, Captain. I didn’t realize ‘sorry’ magically refills the treasure chest you lost or feeds the entire crew. If only I’d known, I’d have started using it years ago!”
Her finger jabbed against the center of his chest, and she tilted her head with a smirk that was far too sharp to be friendly. “You want meat? Go apologize to those Jura birds and ask them for our treasure back. That is your mess to clean up, after all. Or…” Her grin widened, all teeth. “Would you like to borrow Beli from me? Just remember, the interest rate for today is...hmm since I'm feeling rather generous...400 times!"
@strawhatluffy01
"We're pirates aren't we?" Lids slide shut, "Lets just stop at the next island and deal with it."
At least, those were his two cents. Cue a brief snore as the swordsman drifted off to sleep once more.
@tangerine-tales @strawhatluffy01
The jab at his chest was enough to pull Luffy from his visualizations of flying drumsticks, his arm rising to briskly wipe at the edges of his mouth.
"Huh. Apologize to food, as if Nami, that would be dumb."
It was one thing to apologize to her, since she did entrust them with safeguarding the gaudy-looking chest, and they did kind of fail at that, badly, but the Jura Raptors hardly deserved the same consideration. It was almost like Nami didn't listen to his retelling of the incident at all. How could it be his fault if the birds were the ones who high-jacked the treasure the Straw Hats stole first? If anything, they were the ones in the wrong and had to say sorry to the crew-
-then jump right into Sanji's pot so he could kook 'em good.
A palm bent down to pat at his stomach who was in agreement, totally ignorant of the red-head's dangerous aura, or the tick pulsing along her forehead. When Zoro's sleepy baritone added his two scents from where he lay propped up in the hallway, Luffy paused, then straightened from his slump with a laugh. "Oh....Yeah! Shihi! Good thinking Zoro!" His palm left his stomach to knock against the surface of the table instead, causing Nami's ink pots to shudder and quake dangerously. "It's been days, the log post had to pick out a good island by now! How much longer Nami! Are we close yet?"
@tangerine-tales @thegreatestswordsman-zoro
Zoro’s interruption was the last straw. Oh, sure, his lazy suggestion to 'just deal with it' sounded fine in theory—until you remembered WHO exactly had suggested the detour that led to their current broke-and-bird-traumatized situation. The memory of Luffy’s very loud retelling of the whole debacle played in her mind like a horror story.
Of course, having Luffy as captain meant no secrets could exist on this ship. The idiot had recounted every humiliating detail of their misadventure the moment they’d returned: how he’d tried (and failed spectacularly) to beat those oversized, gaudy feather-dusters into submission. The result? No treasure, no supplies, and no ounce of sanity left for Nami.
The image of their once-glorious, glittering gold—her gold—now sitting in some stupid overgrown pigeon nest, brough waterfalls of tears streaming down her face. She clutched at her chest as if the betrayal had physically wounded her, the sound of shattering dreams echoing in her mind. She deserved that treasure—needed it, even—after all she put up with on this ship! How was it fair that the universe kept cheating her out of the life of luxury she DESERVED?
Luffy’s obnoxiously cheerful voice snapped her out of her spiraling despair just in time to see his hand slam down on the table, sending her ink pots into a precarious wobble. It was like watching her patience teeter on the edge of the abyss.
The tears vanished in an instant, replaced by flames of pure, unfiltered RAGE.
Her fist landed squarely on Luffy’s head with enough force to shut him up mid-laugh, the other immediately finding its mark on Zoro, who didn’t even bother opening his eyes. TYPICAL.
“We’re at least five days away! FIVE! And guess what, Luffy? Your whining isn’t going to make us get there any faster!” Her voice dripped with venom as she turned her glare to Zoro’s SOMEHOW still-snoring form. “And you! How about you stop napping and figure out how to replace the treasure you conveniently forgot to protect, huh?”
@strawhatluffy01 @thegreatestswordsman-zoro
"What do you want me to do? Hunt down some birds?" He grumbles, eyes cracking open. Nami didn't look it but her punches packed a wallop -- and had he been a lesser swordsman he would have said something.
But he wasn't thank you very much, and so he continued to grumble, form rising to a sitting position, elbows finding solace on his knees and a smirk playing around his lips. "Unless you're going to turn the ship around."
Which - lets face it - wasn't about to happen with the way they had left. Dark hues shift away from light counterparts before narrowing at a telltale speck on the horizon.
"Oi, what's that?"
@strawhatluffy01 @tangerine-tales
Luffy did not expect his chin hitting the table, the top of his head throbbing where it made contact with the navigator's knuckles. He slumped back in his seat, barely resisting the urge to thumb at the new bump with a wince. Nami definitely had divine conqueror's haki, that one...../hurt/. "Ngggh... Don't worry Nami.." A hesitant grin inched back into place, the heat pulsing from his temple deemed unimportant. "We'll get you a new treasure and it will be even bigger than the last one!" Like Zoro said, they were pirates, so they were bound to come across some valuables sooner rather than later. Losing the chest really wasn't a big deal. The real bummer was that they were five days out from land.
Five.
Finding a treasure that would fill their navigator's coffers would require some serious fuel in the tank and he was already running on reserves. He didn't know if he could last that long. The reverie caused his stomach to emit another sad rumble, but they were saved from acknowledging the sound, as the swordsman's gaze fixed on the horizon. Not needing any further prodding, Luffy leapt from his seat to peer out of the cabin, following Zoro's gaze. "Huh. I see it! It looks like it good be really big!"
He continued to squint at the speck, features scrunching against the glare of the sun. Was that a Sea Dog? Sea Rabbit? "Lets go closer!"

ステッカー作ってみた
I gotta say I'm obsessed with what Luffy does to the typical "sunshine" character trope, in that he's an exception to the usual portrayal but perhaps the most true to it of anyone. He's not "sunshine" as in pure niceness and sweetness and innocence. He's sunshine as in The Sun.
He's joy and light and warmth, illuminating all the beauty of the world, but he's also powerful enough to kill and blind and burn. He's an everyday annoyance. He's the strongest force of nature that exists. His happiness shines bright for miles. So does his rage. You could look at him wrong and be screwed up for life. You never want to live without him.
I can't get over this.
