smoker vc: get arrested already

@bsrkr​ / Smoker said . . .

“That really spooked you.” // @ koby from smoker

Noticing Trauma sentence starters

     Face was buried in his palms now that the fighting was over, Koby remaining in a crouch out of the way of the cleanup and arrests that were occurring. It was just a small break, he had told himself, but there was a familiar low voice that spoke out to him. Lifting his face did his gaze trace up to his superior, seeing stoic visage as usual; he was caught.

     It had been a fairly normal mission, capturing. and arresting pirates who had been terrorizing a portion of small islands, and perhaps G-5 was a bit overqualified for it, but they had been in the area and worked alongside Koby’s own unit in their own chaotic way. Frankly, everything had been going smoothly – right up until an oversized pirate had wielded a spiked iron club at him. The way the flashback snuck up on him so unexpectedly had rendered the young Captain nearly helpless, falling back and feeling quite like the tiny teenager he once was. Alvida was angry again. It was good that someone had kicked the pirate out of the way before any blow could connect to him, and from there had the pink-haired Marine defaulted to merely fighting to end things rather than keep his usual determined wits. At least he had a moment to himself to try to recover, or at least until Smoker came along.

     Now that his visage was revealed, it was clear Koby was pale and a bit dizzy, doing his best attempt to keep himself together as gaze remained distant, now downwards upon the smooth boards of the deck. He was staring into the past, a sad smile upon his lips as he spoke in quavering voice.

     eyes watched paulie intently to see if there was any trace of him joking around with him. if this was a joke, kaku didn’t like it one bit. hands were laying at his sides unsure what he should do with them at this moment in time.

     after everything the both of them had been through and kaku having come back after what he had done--the last thing he thought paulie would do is ask him to join him for a night on the city. he was sure the look he was giving the other was that of confusion, but who could blame him?

          “why?” okay, maybe that wasn’t the best way to start this conversation, like punching a gift yagara in the face, and maybe he had been back on water seven for almost a year--but---

😳 // from yosaku n luffy at nami! from @bsrkr send 😳 if your muse thinks mine is pretty || f it i'm accepting let's go

❝ Oh, Yosaku? Have I grown since you saw me last? ❞ she teases. She peers at her former travelling companion with no shame at all. ❝ I'm still pretty, right? ❞

At Luffy, though, she just blinks. She's not surprised, he thought the world of his nakama, but to admit to something he considered to be rather superficial?

that icon makes kaku too cute and it's doing stuff to paulie rn
