This scene from One Piece Academy some time ago (Law and Robin are just friends, but they're good friends, and Onigiri and she get on well!). Combined with:

this scene of Onigiri snoozing on Robin's lap from One Piece Academy 41 (safer than Cora!), to this placement:

of our dark-haired duo...

(Robin is saying "a certain" there (とある, toaru), not Law's name! (トラ男 tora-o) btw, and thank you for translation from @1000sunnygo! in this post.) ...Let's me imagine that OP Academy low-key sees them as having an affinity with one another! The fact that Robin hacks

Cora's security system (his password was his birthdate, but how did Robin know that? i'm sure it's in the lore somewhere, and Robin is Robin), and offers to help Law and Cora in their mission adds to it! (of course all of the Straw Hats are helping, Nami offers to charge!).

Robin calls Cora Cora-o kun (コラ男くん). The 男 (o --> otoko--> boy/man at the end of his name [as it is at the end of Tora]) is cute. It's pretty unusual for a non-adult to use the suffix 'kun' to an adult though, and even among adults is usually used for closer acquaintances, once past youth. That's my understanding anyway. So, that's another Robin quirk. Anyway But as 1000sunnygo says in this post, the academy society is mostly made up of students, including characters who should be adults, like Cora, or who are adults but still students.

Robin offering her and Brook's services because they're good at subterfuge, as seen in the screen-cap above, is very supportive of Law and his benefactor! I know all the characters have run-ins with the 'bad guys' at the academy and influencing the academy. The other person who seems to have an accidental (Robin's is not accidental) affinity for Onigiri (and by extension, Law) is Kid!

Not from the latest chapter (Kid needs to be nice to save himself from going to Hell). I am nothing if not a multi-shipper 😁. Onigiri is maybe as popular as Law himself :D

So the newest episode threw me back to my lawbin obsession. God I wished Toei did extend this moment but it was nonetheless beautiful, the lightning and all.

Did they slide back down the passage to the stairs or helped Law out?
