Alstromeria (Peruvian Lily).
“I’d suggest getting them flowers if you truly wish to propose Franky”
Comes the clipped voice of Iceburg, he’d seen the look in his brothers eyes, ever since Franky had quietly travelled back to Water Seven during the two year time gap. Iceburg had been endlessly amused at how much the once criminal warlord of Water Seven had gushed about the strawhats, but especially you.
“Flowers? Man, what do i even get them? I dont wanna get them some small flowers. They deserve something massive, especially after all this time apart."
Franky groans as he leans back in the chair. He rubs his chin, trying to come up with ideas.
"Why dont you ask Mozu and Kiwi? Im sure that they would love to see how youve been doing"
Iceburg says, gently patting Tyranasorus, who perches its head out from his shirts pocket, as he shifts his gaze to Franky.
Franky just slams his hands on the desk, one of the table legs cracking and Paulie immediatley sighs as he quickly shoots out the ropes to try and stabilise the desk.
"Of course! Why didnt I think of that. Thanks bro!"
And with that, the blue haired shipwright was out the door.
"Do you really think their gonna help him?"
Paulie asks as he keeps the desk leg secure, Iceburg leans down and starts to use a screwdriver in order to connect the screw into the table leg in order to connect the desk together again. Franky breaking his desk accidentally was nothing new, he had done it many times, which is why Iceburg constantly kept a screwdriver and packet of screws on him.
"Of course they will. But not without tormenting him to find out who their 'big boss' is tripping over his feet for"
Mozu and Kiwi and Zambai all absolutley hound Franky for a good hour trying to figure out everything about you before they decide to actually give him any advice on which flowers to give you.
And well, it seems like Franky doesn't even need to be told, he can feel it as soon as he sees those flowers in that vase by the bar. Those ones, he has to get those ones for you.
And well, Franky turns up sheepishly at the reunion with a bouquet of flowers.
He shouts to you before one of the small cybernetic hands comes out from his main metal fist and carefully gives you the peruvian lillies.
"I saw these, thought youd like them. They look super cool huh?"
The lillies were a mix of pink, yellow and orange.
Alstromeria (Peruvian Lily) symbolise devotion, mutual support and the unique shape of their leaves growing upside down twist out from the stem. This formation of their growth symbolises the twists and turns of enduring bonds in the closest of relationships.
Yellow peruvian lilies represent joy, happiness and positive energy.
Orange peruvian lillies represents energy, passion and vitality.
And finally, pink peruvian lillies represent romance, affection and gentle love.

Robin had quietly taken to gardening a specific flower, she had found some seeds that had been sold at the markets in Dressrosa, flowers that had once surrounded the island of Ohara before it had been burnt to ash in the buster call.
Many Oharan scholars there had grown the flowers as a sign of respecting the knowledge that many chose to chase and the mystery that continued to surround the void century and what was truly going on in this world. Her own mothers favourite flowers were Yarrow.
So Robin had decided that alongside Nami’s tangerine bushes, she would start to tend to the Yarrow flowers that now covered every single inch of the garden plots, spreading across every inch and covering the area with small beige flowers.
Robin had always loved how you consistently sit beside her, she always angles her book so that you can read. The notes that she takes when translating the poneglyph language have started to go missing.
She knows it’s you, quietly trying to decrease her burden as you try to learn the poneglyph language yourself. Trying to make it so that Robin wasn’t the only one targeted, the only one who shouldered being able to translate the poneglyphs. She worried about you, but she appreciated it more than you could ever know.
Robin had started to find you at her desk, asleep with your head rested on the wood. Robin can’t help but smile as she picks up one of the blankets from her bed, she drapes it over you and kisses your forehead.
“Sleep well, paper trail”
She says slightly amused, it was quite funny to see you with multiple pages that had fully annotated sticky notes attached of you swearing as you try and understand the impossible grammar of the ancient language. There’s a small bouquet of yarrow flowers on the desk, that have been kept together with multiple blades of grass that have been threaded together to secure the flowers, that Robin had brought for you.
Yarrow symbolises healing, protection and everlasting love. Flowers connected to the Greek hero Achilles, who was said to use yarrow in order to treat his soldiers wounds. The flowers are a symbol of endurance for knowledge and they embody bravery, resilience and emotional restoration.

Brook had first met you, well, my god, it must be decades ago.
Years passed slowly for him, alone on that old ship, no crew, no one but the ghostly fog and unruly waters that crashed against the ship each day. The corpses of his old crew, now skeletons like himself, the ghost ship that was so unbearably quiet as it floats through the Florian triangle.
But then he had seen you again, sailing alongside those straw hat pirates. He didn’t know exactly what you were, but he was glad to see you again. You had aged but so had he, he was a skeleton after all now. The strawhats, the rookie crew that had fought through thriller bark. He remembers being a romantic in his younger years and his best friend, Yorkie had told him plenty of times that if you love someone then you give them flowers.
The snowdrop seemed perfect, he had originally intended to give them to you all those years ago, but when Yorkie fell ill, his priorities had shifted at that moment. Though, it seemed like he wasn’t the only thing that his devil fruit had preserved. Those snowdrops that had been tucked into the pocket of his jacket....tucked away for safety in order to make sure that the flowers could be brought out as a surprise for you. They had also been protected and revived.
“Ah, forgive me y/n, i believe that I was supposed to give these to you a while back. And if you would take them, even after all the time that has passed, then it would warm my heart”
“YOHOHOHO! It seems as though even if i no longer possess a heart, you seem to make it burn bright”
The green soul crackles softly through Brooks ribcage, shifting its form into a small green heart that beats. You just laugh and take the flowers.
“Of course i will still have you Brook”
Tears, somehow, spill from the musicians eye sockets as he smiles and bows before you.
“I am glad to hear that y/n-san”
Snowdrops symbolise hope, renewal and rebirth. They bloom in the winter when snow still mostly buries the ground, for that they are seen as symbols of the ability for life to have victory over the cold and have the resilience to overcome obstacles.
Snowdrops are also flowers that represent the embodiment of quiet determination and inner strength.

First Son of the Sea Jinbe:
Jinbe had first met you during a warlord meeting, you were a baroque works agent that had been beside Sir Crocodile the entire meeting, quietly scratching your pen against the page as you made observations and wrote down what everyone had said during the meeting, making sure to track facial expressions of the more unpredictable warlords such as Gecko Moria and Doflamingo. Trying to see if they reacted to certain topics more then others, anything to see if there was a give away to their next moves in this game of chess.
Your attention to detail is what drew Jinbe towards you at first, and the fact that every time he seemed to glance over to steal glances, you always had a small whale shark chibi drawn with a little love heart next to it.
It went like this for every meeting until the other warlords noticed.
Crocodile wasnt...initially pleased to put it lightly. You were his best scribe, damn good at writing down real time conversations in order to make sure that Crocodile could look back on meetings incase there was something that he missed.
Although, the more he thought about it? The more Crocodile believed that this was actually very good. He could use this against Jinbe if needed when the warlords eventually collapsed, Crocodile couldnt see this silly marine system lasting long with the people that had congregated under the warlords banner.
And so, he had just let you follow your heart. Leaving small little drawings or notes for Jinbe, sliding them under the table during the meetings, specifically choosing the seat next to Jinbe.
It was getting so obvious that Mihawk had quietly brought some iris that he had grown in his garden...
"Jinbe. Id advise that you give these to y/n. Before Doflamingo or Gecko Moria try to get with them just so you cant"
Mihawk holds out the beautiful purple flowers towards Jinbe and the fishman takes them. Holding them close.
"Ah...Much appreciated Dracule"
And so, after the meeting, Jinbe quickens his pace as he catches you just before you leave with Crocodile, placing the flowers in your hands.
"I wanted to give these to you, and forgive me if I am too forward, but I would like to ask you on...a date"
Jinbe was out of his depth, but it was all worth his awkward but somehow smooth fumbling as you smile up at him.
Iris symbolises faith and hope for a brighter future, exactly what Jinbe wishes to see. They are a flower that also encompasses wisdom, positive change, truth, clarity and kindness. As well as beauty from the ornate way that their petals grow, they are often described as elegance draped in purple.
