SOBBING

Love was more than just a three worded statement to Zoro, something just to be said. For Zoro, it had to be shown. It had to be earned.

He could never just say that he loved the other Straw Hats. It would never be enough. Zoro had to make sure that they never were in danger and put his life on the line for every one of them. That they had someone to do all the heavy lifting when they couldn’t, even if he may grumble periodically if it’s the Cook. Hell, if needed, he had to make sure that they had a nap buddy. And most importantly, he always liked to listen to them talk.

Zoro never has to say that he loved them. They all know. He never expects for his gestures to be returned. But they always are, without fail.

Luffy always wanting Zoro to play some stupid game with him or even just hanging out while he trained. Using his devil fruit in some of his exercises, something that Zoro didn’t know would be helpful. But Luffy, looking up at him, would shoot him the biggest ear-to-ear grin. 

“Well, Zoro needed those resistance bands to work out. I don’t know how those help but I thought I could help better,” Luffy stated obviously but so sweetly as Zoro used part of his arm to stretch his shoulders. Zoro smiled a little softer at the knowledge of how closely his captain listened. How aware of him he was. 

Usopp, creating a gadget that was even more durable enough to hold his swords, with Zoro watching behind him. So experimental and dexterous, he messed with the metal of the soon to be fully formed carrier. Making sure it could withstand anything Zoro could encounter. He watched him move, his head tilting to the side as he watched. 

“You’re very intent on making sure this doesn’t break,” Zoro pointed out amusedly and Usopp nodded, fixing the final screw of his holder.

“Well, of course. I don’t want you to lose your swords,” Usopp said, the tone of voice also much softer than he’s used to being directed. 

Nami and Sanji he would find cleaning his swords, Nami holding Enma in his lap and Sanji holding Kietsu in his lap. Meanwhile, Wado rested on a towel and was practically given a pillow for it to be rested on. He watched the gentle care that Nami and Sanji performed on his swords, treating them like something of care to the both of them. All of his swords have a history, he knew that to anyone else they were a hunk of metal.

Not to his crew. Not to Sanji and Nami right now, unaware of Zoro watching them.

“This oil you picked out is so nice. It makes the swords shine,” Sanji said to Nami, finishing the wiping down the tip of his blade with an intense concentration. Nami was giving him a look that even Zoro couldn’t read and she hummed in agreement, still cleaning Enma down.

“Cleaning and sharpening his swords were also a good idea,” Nami replied, a tone gentle as she stared down at Enma. The two of them sat in silence as Sanji and Nami both cleaned his swords.

“Zoro! Why are you working out now!?” Chopper scolded, staring down at his bandaged torso as he lifted a smaller weight. Zoro finished his rep and he placed it down on the ground next to his feet.

“I need to keep training-”

“Well you’re not going to get stronger if you stay injured,” Chopper said to him with crossed arms across his chest. Despite his frown, Zoro didn’t miss the worried glint in his eyes down at him. His little blue nose twitched as his hoof pressed into his side.

“Alright fine. But I want to keep my swords by my bed,” Zoro requested as they walked to the hospital bunks.

“Nami got you a stand. So you’ll be okay.”

Zoro nodded and when they got to the bunks, Robin was fixing Zoro’s bed and fluffing up his blankets and pillows. When she finished, she sat on the chair and picked up a book on the history of swordsmen. She looked over at him with a gentle smile, a much warmer smile.

“Figured you needed some company, Swordsman.”

Hi! I really like your blog and was wondering if you would do some angel x demon prompts and one-liners?

Thank you very much! I love this pairing so much I can’t even describe. (A is the angel, B is the demon)

Angel x Demon OTP Prompts

Prompts

B was a human, but unknowingly was turned to a demon. A is sent from heaven to get rid of B, but is shocked to see B living a normal life, oblivious to their new demon abilities. A decides to watch B for a while, and things grow more complicated when they fall in love.

B is the rule-abiding, ‘I want what’s best for humanity’, do gooder and A is the reckless, flirtatious, rule breaker instead of the other way around.

A has been kicked out of heaven and will do anything to get back in. Officially, B is trying to convert A to ‘the bad side’. Unofficially, B is annoying A as much as possible because they’re so cute when they’re mad.

B is trying to be a bad influence to / turn a random human. The human’s guardian angel, A, does everything they can to stop B.

A is running away from heaven, hiding in plain sight as a normal person in earth. They run into B, who is doing the exact same thing.

Oneliners

“Who knew angels were so . . . morally ambiguous”

“Did it hurt when you fell from heaven?” “I don’t think that joke’s appropriate”

“You . . . you make me want to be good”

“Come on, I know you got a bad side”

“Wait, you don’t have wings?”

“I’d give up all my powers for you” “But you can’t”

My favourite type of zolu fanarts are the ones where you know they’re married because luffy has one of Zoro’s earrings. I eat the shit up
