oh can i send in a request? What about Killer and Law (seperate) trying to set up a special date night for their fem!s/o?
Hi love! I had way more fun than I thought I’d have writing these. I don’t necessarily picture them as the most romantic people, but with the right person, under the right circumstances, magic can be made! I hope you enjoy these!
slight suggestive themes. only a little. They’re also super long (especially Killer’s)! Sorry/You’re welcome? (*꒦ິ꒳꒦ີ)
Preparing a date night HC - Killer, Law
You've been together for quite some time now, but well, dates and such don't really fit into a pirate's life, especially not if that pirate's captain is Eustass Kid.
There's been plenty of occasions where you had tried to get some quiet time, some privacy, but alas, Kid was always there to interrupt, needing Killer for the most unnecessary things, but with Kid shouting outside your door there are only so many romantic things you can do.
And thus actual date nights were out of the question most of the time. You didn’t particularly mind, and any time spent with your masked boyfriend was a good time. But sometimes you fantasized about how nice it would be to just have a moment of quiet and an actual date for just the two of you.
Killer had been meaning to actually get something done, but he had to wait the perfect time. When the Victoria Punk docked at an island that the captain did not want to burn down, the time seemed perfect. During the day, the ship would get some minor reparations, supplies would be stocked up, and after the entire crew would be on land drinking some bar dry.
They’d be up drinking for most of the night, and afterward, when they came back on ship, would soon pass out, and sleep well into the day, leaving an entire evening and night for you and Killer.
He wanted to keep it a surprise though, so he did his chores as fast as he could to get some things in order before you came back to the ship from your supply hunt.
Now, Killer is not particularly romantic, nor does he really know how to do ‘romantic’, but is not stupid. He can ask a few random shopkeepers what is romantic, and then compile his own romantic night out of it.
Nice dinner, that’s something he can do. Flowers? got it. A few candles? Sure, how hard can it be?
The hardest thing is honestly keeping you away from his room or the kitchen. Because you too, wanted to spend as much time as possible with him while the crew goes out to party, and you had also rushed through your chores.
Killer just told Kid you would be willing to help with something insanely time consuming, and Kid was more than eager to give you orders to do it. Killer felt a little bad, but it was necessary to get you to stay away so he could get everything prepared.
You were ready to barge into the kitchen all pissed off after the work, angry that you had spent some precious time that could already be spent together with your captain instead, especially since the latter had been nagging you the whole time.
All your anger immediately ebbed away when you took in the state of the kitchen. The table actually had a tablecloth on it, with a vase with some beautiful flowers that looked like they were put in rather roughly. Beautiful nonetheless.
Candles everywhere, and if Kid were here you’d probably all put them out immediately so your captain couldn’t throw any in a fit of anger and accidentally set the ship on fire. But for now, they gave the perfect atmosphere as it was slowly getting dark outside.
It smells terrific as well, and the plates suggest dinner is for two. Killer made sure the whole crew knew to go get dinner in town before their drinking adventure, and that no one had to be near the kitchen for the entire evening. No one had dared go against him.
You finally can quietly talk, enjoy some quality food, and since no one is going to be around, Killer is comfortable enough to remove his mask for a while, further increasing the intimacy of the evening.
After dinner, accompanied by some good drinks and the best talks you’ve had in a while -even though it’s mostly you talking, Killer is, even without the mask, not the type of person to lead a conversation, more of a listener- it is time for dessert.
Killer literally carries you to your shared bedroom, careful not to forget his mask and blow out all the candles beforehand. After all, an entire quiet night together without anyone to disturb you is rare and you bet that he’s gonna make the absolute most of it.
Law prefers quiet time spent together, away from the crew family above actual elaborate dates. Not that he doesn't know how to be romantic, he just sees way more meaning in taking a rare nap together, a cuddle session, just the small intimate things.
But on special days, he'll make an exception, especially if you don't really think those dates are really special, such as birthdays and anniversaries.
They're nice to acknowledge, but you know very well pirate life is too busy for elaborate parties and dates. You’ll settle for a good old fashioned cuddle session.
Law, however, actually keeps track of those dates better than you do, and will sometimes surprise you, even if you have forgotten, he will make sure you remember it’s a special day.
Today was your anniversary, and you seemed to be in your usual blissful ignorance of the date, which made Law’s preparation work easier for him.
He is very lucky his crew is extremely helpful when it comes to things like this. Sachi and Penguin cooking something for the both of you, Law dares not touch the stove. He may be a skilled doctor, but put a knife in his hands instead of a scalpel, and you better keep the fire extinguisher ready for whenever he puts something on the stove. It’s usually cause he’s too busy focussing on one single aspect, as you would with an operation, but not really useful when there are multiple parts of the dish cooking at the same time. So yeah, the crew to the rescue for the food.
Bepo will help distract you most of the day, asking you for help with little problems and other things, before leading you to your room, where Law will have put your favorite heart-pirate branded outfit on the bed with a note to meet him outside.
by then you will realize what kind of day it is exactly, and when you put on the outfit and go outside, you will notice that with the help of Bepo’s navigation, probably calculated days beforehand, the Polar Tang has surfaced at a beautiful place, the moon shining brightly and the sky filled with thousands of stars.
Law will sit next to a small fire made by the crew to keep the two of you warm, a nice picnic prepared sitting next to him.
You will have dinner and some private time under the night sky. And just the sheer romanticism of it all will sweep you off your feet. The crew will respectfully stay away, Bepo guarding the door leading to the deck while not even looking over his shoulder in order to give his captain some privacy.
This is when you share some of your most tender moments, Law might even flash you one of his rare smiles as he wipes some food from your nose that you got there while enthusiastically telling him a story while eating.
After dinner, you will cuddle some under the starlight, Law amazing you with his knowledge of the stars and pointing at certain constellations to tell you their name. Even if you aren’t particularly interested, his smooth voice will calm you down and the cold night time, even with the fire, makes you huddle up even closer pretending it’s only so you can ask ‘which star exactly’ he was pointing at.
Date nights with Law are not the most special, but that makes them even more special. After all that, he will definitely put his work aside and try to battle his insomnia with you for a night. He’s so relaxed, and those evenings he finds it surprisingly easy for him to fall asleep, especially if you softly talk back to him while rubbing his back and hair, thanking him for the nice evening.
