If you see Monkey D. Luffy saying that I “got him pregnant” it’s a LIE. I did NOT. He’s NOT PREGNANT.

On an entirely separate note. Can you try to get to the Sunny any faster?

Only way I could get there faster is if I had an ungodly amount of stamina that could allow me to sky walk there , we are doing our best !

But I negotiated with Luffy and he will let you leave tomorrow . That is if he keeps his word .

[ Koby startles the second Helmeppo enters the office, hiding a paper behind his back and staring at him wide eyed. He looks to have been caught in the middle of pacing around the room. ]

J-jeez! Meppo, you…should knock! uh..even if I invited you!! You should knock. To make your presence known. Just in case!!

( That was actually unlike him , he’d learn pretty early on in his cadet days that you must knock before entering a room ) Sorry- I’m . I’m just worried okay ?

I just wanted to get to you as soon as possible , I know you said you were alright but still. .

[kukribrat]

Ignoring the last really sad thing I sent you….

Fleet Admiral just messed up and I’m. fighting for my life I’m SCREAMING this is SO embarrassing for him I feel like i just won the fucking lottery Meppo.

Wait wait what happened ? Oh I’m so curious !! What did he do ?!?! *👀

And uh- what sad thing ? Huh ? Let me check .

[kukribrat]

Helmeppo,

I just…wanted to tell you that..I miss you and how much I appreciate you. You’re always there when I need it most and you’re always the first person to worry about me. I don’t know who or where I would be without you and..

I just miss my best friend.

Thats all..

Euuuugh Kobs *😭

I miss you too , I promise we’re on our way okay ? The crew misses you too , we’ll do everything in our power to get you back .

[ The door to Helmeppo’s side of the Captains quarters creeeeaks open, slow and loud in the silence of the night. He can hear the soft drip, drip, drip of liquid on the floorboards before he even sees Koby, standing in the darkened doorway, looking…completely out of it. He’s wobbling slightly, smiling like nothing is wrong, and absolutely covered in sand and blood, seeping through his messy bandage work, drying onto his face and hair, yet he remains wholly unbothered. His speech is heavily slurred. ]

helmeppo……..

( He runs towards him , fully intending to wrap him in a tight hug , but stopping himself )

K-Koby !!!!!!!!

( Still he keeps his hands around his captain , ready to catch him if he falls .

He takes a good look at him , his eyes begin to tear up , he was really hurt. . ) O-Oh god K-koby. .

[kukribrat]

HELP

SHAVE MISTAKE. STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OCEAN.

SOS.

Ooooh my fucking god- Wait for me !! I- thank god for vivre cards omg !

[kukribrat]

i miss you…

nothing seems to be going right for me lately.

taking care of Hibari through all of this has been exhausting. i’m so afraid to come back to base. i don’t know.

..

i miss being happy, Helmeppo. i just want things to go back to normal but i dont think they ever really can after all this.

Oh Koby. . I . I get how you feel . I do . But the best thing you can do is have hope you know ?

Things pass , they get better with time as long as you keep fighting and don’t give up okay ?

I know- I know it’s not fair . You don’t deserve all of this. . I wish I had the way to fix everything , because if someone deserves to be happy it’s you .

The best I can do is stay by your side , if you- If you need a break from everything we could just leave for a while ! What will they do ? I mean we aren’t even marines anymore are we ?

I’ll be back soon , I’ll help you deal with Hibari and then we can take a nice long vacation .

[kukribrat]

( He’s pacing around the ship , visor long forgotten in his room , a blank almost empty expression on his face , his face still wet from the tears .

He was thinking , thinking about the effects all of this would have on Koby , everything was going to be worse , he will never recover from this , he knows it , he’s angry , he’s worried , there’s too much going on , for the first time it’s so much that his face can’t do anything but just stay completely blank , almost tired of emoting )
