we all know the famous frobin scene where franky offers her a ride on his motorcycle, but we never talk about what happens after. brooke gets on the motorcycle with him instead and says “what ? nothing wrong with a little bromance !!” and franky laughs and says “you’re right about that !!”

not to be weird about it but this implies 3 things

1. brooke got onto the motorcycle knowing that franky was trying to flirt with robin

2. brooke was somehow jealous ?? either just because he wanted a ride or for some other reason (possibly a gay reason)

3. that franky doesn’t see anything wrong with two men in love, perhaps even hinting that he himself has the capacity to love another man.

then robin proceeds to leave with jinbe on foot, where she flirts with him and calls him boss the whole time. he is like a spider in her trap. she WILL get him into a poly relationship with her and her husband (franky). and brooke wants in on it too apparently.

some messy one piece older straw hat polycule thoughts. it’s 2 am and i just got back from a shift so i’m exhausted, please understand this post the world needs to know

also apparently it’s spelled “brook” and i’ve been misspelling it this whole time, not going to correct myself in this post, too tired ngl

These mf’s need a better name than Old Strawhat Polycule but I will present regardless

Franky and Robin need no introduction. She finds him interesting and a good dose of silly guy cures the depression like nothing else. If a man (35, blue hair, pronouns, naked, craftsman, surfer, local union representative) built me a fish tank and a library, I too could simply not resist. He thinks she’s the most gorgeous beautiful stunning intelligent funny wise woman in the entire world because she is.

Robin and Brook, likewise, ooooo the macabre appeal of the hanahone ship. She licks him in the way that archeologists lick rocks and bones to figure out if they are a rock or a bone and she thinks it’s a funny joke every time. He thinks she’s the most gorgeous beautiful stunning intelligent funny wise woman in the entire world because she is. When they go to the beach he buries himself halfway in the sand and she digs him back up and she thinks it’s sooooo funny every time.

Brook and Franky lay stoned on the deck noodling their guitars and they’re like when two rockstars kiss on stage. Brook stands there like an anatomical model when Franky’s gotta crack open the hood and points to stuff. They’ve got the same strand of “lived in isolation on an abandoned ship” disease but Brook’s just for it 9x as bad (50 years to Franky’s 4). Sometimes they make Franky run on Milk to see what it does (you DONT want to see Milk Franky)

Jinbei 👏 and 👏 Franky both love 👏 SUNNY!!!! They get her, and to understand Sunny is to Understand Franky and he stands there and he watches Jinbei drive his car like the master that he is and it makes him Feel Things. They listen to dad rock. They go surfing together. They go snorkeling together. They go fishing together. They go to 2pm Wednesday half priced movies together. They go bowling together. They share a shirt collection.

Robin and Jinbei free political prisoners!!! The thinks he’s handsome, she thinks he’s kind, she thinks he’s Just. She thinks he’s admirable. They organize protests, they attend community meetings, they figure out direct action. She’s kissing fish men and it’s making the papers for the revolutionary act that it is (and the papers can’t even comprehend when Franky Kisses Him). He thinks she’s the most gorgeous beautiful stunning intelligent funny wise woman in the entire world because she IS!

Brook And Jinbei used to Go to Chilis together but then chilis got rid of the 2 for 25 deal (because of inflation) so they’re a little mad about it and are taking direct action against the banks. And trying to find a new restaurant to go to. They’re considering getting into lawn bowling/bocce because bowling nights with everyone are getting too expensive (because inflation is too high! $75 for 4 people to bowl for an hour????? We can have bowling at home!!) but it’s not the same.

And then they all pile up when they sleep too because a cuddle pile ain’t just for the younger crew

(Because breadcrumbs for these two are non-existent and I gotta make the most of it.)
