I have been in the making of this for probably months now because I am always too lazy to write, but here we go!!!
Slight spoilers for dressrosa and whole cake island in Sanjiâs, spoilers for Wano in Yamatos.
Not proof read I am the laziest writer ever đ
- Luffy is kinda oblivious with his own feelings, especially when it comes to romance. When he starts gaining feelings for you, he probably thinks he just feels a strong friendship towards you, if he were to ever reflect on it. Which he probably wouldnât anyways.
- At some point though he probably thinks maybe he sees you like a sibling, because at some point he acknowledges you mean more to him than even his crew at times. But he kinda becomes disgusted with the idea of having a relationship with you akin to Ace or Sabo. Heâs not sure why he feels that disgust however, since he doesnât think negatively of you at all! So why does the idea of you being siblings bother him so much?
- But of course, heâs not one for thinking too long or hard about it and kinda moves on.
- Luffy will treat you differently, just a bit. But itâs not too noticeable since he mostly treats you like any other friend, just closer. Heâs more clingy, physically clinging to you, such as hanging on your back, crawling all over you like your a jungle gym, or simply grabbing your hand and dragging you off to go on some dumb filler episode with him. Luffy drags you often on one on one adventures, and loves spending time with just you. He offers you a lot of his food and has no qualms sharing with you.
- Luffy does a lot of things to show he cares, that might not be what he does for others. He goes out his way to protect you, though of course he has faith in your skills as well, he definitely seeks to protect you more than he would his crew. He becomes more angry for your sake as well, say if a pirate took an interest in stealing you away, or perhaps somebody bad mouthing you. He wonât stand for either and wonât hesitate to fight them either.
- He doesnât realize his feelings until Nami and Usopp blatantly point it out to him, Nami asking him when heâs going to confess. And so when Luffy just blinks blankly at her, they realize⌠âLuffy.. donât tell me you donât even know you have a crush on them?!â Usopp would yell at him. Before the two had to sit luffy down for a bit of a talk.
- That being said, Luffy doesnât bother planning on some grand confession. Thatâs not really who Luffy is. Also, rejection doesnât even occur to him. Heâs not thinking about consequences or potential outcomes. When he basically is forced to realize he has feelings for you, he goes to a field of flowers, and he hand picks out ones that remind you of him. He will then hand you the flowers and tell you, âhey! I like you a lot! Wanna go on a date?!â And thatâs kinda it. Of course, Nami, Usopp, Sanji, and even Chopper will look on in horror, while the rest just laugh because well, thatâs luffy for you.
- Zoro on the other hand acts vastly different around you, so his crush is far more obvious and noticeable. Itâs kinda hard to pull off, since heâs normally the cool, nonchalant swordsman. But around you, he stumbles over his words and he feels like he cannot function around you. Similar to Tashigi, he feels the need to run away from you and avoid any conversation with you.
- Also, the constantly blushing and sweating doesnât help his case. He can often be found stuttering and not knowing how to proceed with conversation. This also comes into play with how he treats you. Constantly caught in between if he should be nice and normal around you or if he should be mean to you so you donât catch onto his feelings.
- So often times, his brain short circuits, and it comes out a jumbled mess of words. âLike I care if you fall! I mean⌠I do care-! But-! Not really! But-!â and it could go on like that all day if Nami doesnât bonk him in the head.
- And other times, his sentences must simply do not make any sense. Heâs a mess around you, plain and simple. Despite his awkwardness making it kinda hard to have a good bond sometimes, Zoro is protective of you and thatâs not something he can deny. No matter how many times he may claim he doesnât care, and then claim he does the next second.
- Zoro is naturally more possessive and protective of you, almost as if itâs just in his nature to be. Zoro will give the death glare to any man staring at you for too long whenever you and him hang out in some tavern. And Zoro is constantly scanning for danger. He almost treats it like an opportunity to prove he can be the one to always protect you.
- Zoro has known he liked you since the beginning, but didnât really confess for a long time. Perhaps he convinced himself itâs because thereâs constantly too much going on, being in a pirate crew and all. But deep down he knows heâs just nervous of the outcome. He doesnât fear rejection exactly, he just fears he will lose the friendship that took forever to form due to his nerves.
- When he confesses, he doesnât plan anything too grand either. While he was tempted to, Robin was able to stop him from doing anything that wasnât truly himself. Zoro just casually asks you on a date at some restaurant thatâs kinda nice, but not too fancy for a first date (and for Zoro, he hates fancy stuff). âHey, wanna go out at .. whatâs it called? Sallyâs grill and bar? Heard itâs pretty good.â
- Sanji oh you are in for a rideeee. Sanji doesnât realize the extent of his feelings for quite some time, simply because yknow⌠he likes a lot of people.. a lot of women in particular. He assumes his lust for you is the same as anyone else, but undeniable. His eyes heart shaped, following you around like a dog waiting for his command. And nobody bats an eye at his behavior.
- there is however, some other things that make his crewmembers do a double take. And this is when he starts clearly having a preference for you over Nami and Robin. If you are to ever ask for something, whatever that may be, he drops everything to do it for you first. Even if he was in the middle of doing something for Robin or Nami. He will outright say as well, he makes meals specially prepared for the ladies, Nami and Robin, but he makes even more special meals for you. You get his very best.
- but if thatâs not enough, you can notice his preference towards you in simply his language. The slightest change. Perhaps he may call a woman ravishing or beautiful. But with you, he specifically says you are the âmostâ ravishing, and the âmostâ beautiful, today. It is such a small change, barely noticeable, but it means something. and with how protective he is of you as well, thereâs also that. Heâll kick anyoneâs ass that thinks of hurting you or looking at you lustfully. Sanji is very passionate about protecting your beauty.
- Sanji only starts to realize his feelings on his own, and the extent it goes, during dressrosa and whole cake. When heâs with Viola, planning to ârun awayâ with her. He keeps imagining you, instead of viola. And it makes him think twice about a few⌠things. Like why heâs imagining running away and getting married with you so much. This feeling only becomes worse with pudding, when he imagines heâs marrying you instead of her, and it only makes him more depressed about his situation.
- So when you two reunite once more, after everything thatâs gone down, he just wants to be with you. His feelings for you fully realized, youâll start to notice heâs not really fawning after other people anymore, just you. And for the next couple weeks he is plotting, planning. His confession for you. Heâs nervous of course, but he wants this to be a genuine confession and not one of his typical off handed ones that donât really mean anything.
- And so, on a day where the strawhats are exploring a new island theyâve docked at, Sanji tells you he wants to make a nice dinner just for you. And so, he does. He decorates the dining room, a dim light, a new fancy white table cloth, and your favorite meal. Maybe some wine too⌠and he just has dinner with you, bouquets of flowers and all. Itâs a bit too many flowers actually.
- When you finally ask him, âSanji⌠is this a date?â Sanji simply dies on the inside, having a nosebleed on the spot. Before he wipes himself clean with a napkin, and says, âDo you want it to be?!â Sanji hopes he doesnât sound too desperate, but he definitely does.
- Usopp admittedly, doesnât really know what heâs doing. Though he does realize his feelings for you early on. He prioritize friendship with you at first, since heâs honestly not sure on the moral code of crewmates dating and heâs a bit too scared to ask Luffy without being outed.
- He acts mostly the same around you, but youâll notice him seeking you out more than the others. He spends more time with you, often inviting you to hang out and fish with him or just spend one on one time together. Usopp also tends to tease you more than the others. Though all in good fun, sometimes he just likes to rile you up. Of course, he is a cheater in card games. But sometimes he might just let you win just to see you get happy.
- Heâs already the type to fabricate stories, but he may do so a lot around you so that you think heâs this strong, brave man in shining armor. Of course, if you know him at all you know heâs lying, but please humor him. He gets all cute and blushy whenever you compliment his âachievementsâ, though he will become rather boastful.
- But there are some aspects where heâs a bit shy around you. If you give him a hug, his whole face becomes red, hell his whole body will go red. Heâs a total dork around you. Late at night when you two watch the waves as the ship rocks, the rest of the crew asleep, Usopp will spend the late hours with you. Whether heâs telling you his brave stories, heâs comforting you from a nightmare (or you comforting him from a nightmare, even if he never admits he had one), or you two are simply watching the stars.
- when his feelings are obvious enough for Nami and Franky to catch on he definitely freaks out a bit. Sanji noticing isnât too bad since he has an eye for love⌠but seriously?! Nami will tease him for life and Franky is⌠well⌠Franky. Franky has some advice for it. âJust go for it, bro!â like itâs that easyâŚ
- so with a shaky smile, Usopp goes up to you one day. Under the guise of being your bodyguard, he takes you around town in the new island you guys docked at recently. Itâs then he paid Nami an exuberant amount of money (somehow, someway, perhaps thatâs why he was so tired and barely at the sunny for the last month?) to get his crewmates to dress up as robbers and pretend to be out to get you. It was pretty ridiculous, Usopp painting himself as the hero that protects you the whole time.
- and by the end of that day, he asks you out on a date with shaky legs. You say yes, of course. And also, you knew what was going on the whole time.
- Namiâs feelings develop at a slower pace. Sheâs not used to love so.. it would actually be a first for her to experience it. And sheâs not really that typical girl that dreamed of getting married and having kids one day. She never cared much for it. Given the childhood she has she never had the opportunity to either. Nami is far from a traditional woman.
- But time went on, and as you two become closer with one another Nami realizes her feelings as they develop. Nami starts getting a bit nervous around you as a result. Constantly finding excuses to leave the conversation. âOh..! Hey! Whatâs that over there?!â before she dashes off the second you look away from her.
- She tries not to make that a habit but it happens anytime she realizes her cheeks are as bright as Buggyâs nose. Although Nami often tries to keep up the charade she only feels friendship towards you, she canât deny the pounding in her chest and the sweat that beads on her forehead, anytime you grab her hand or hug her.
- Her feelings for you get kinda obvious when youâre like the only person she doesnât yell or get mad at, and she kinda just treats you like an angel incapable of wrongdoing. To the point she gets mad at the boys a lot for being âmeanâ to you, even if maybe you kinda deserved it.
- her crewmembers have noticed, for sure. Namely Sanji who gives you the death glare over it, but ultimately supports you two so long as her heart isnât broken. Otherwise he might kill you. (Unless you are a woman.. then.. that can be negotiated). But honestly she shouldnât be surprised they caught on when they saw her willingly shop with you and offered to pay for you.
- Nami wouldnât âconfessâ for a while. She puts it off, afraid of possible rejection. At this point, Namis grown to like you a bit too much. She probably wouldnât be able to handle it if you rejected her. But alas, she eventually forces herself to get it over with.
- She makes her intentions quite clear, giving you flowers, asking you out on a date with a nervous smile and red cheeks. She tries to come across as confident, and while she mostly pulls it off, the sweat on her forehead does give her away.
- Vivi develops feelings over time as well. And for a bit sheâs actually kinda oblivious to her feelings for you. Sheâs friends with you for quite some time until she catches onto the fact she thinks about you a lot more than she does with any other friend of hers. Once she realizes that, she starts thinking of you in a romantic way more often, thinking about holding your hand or kissing you.
- Vivi isnât too subtle about her feelings, though she probably thinks she is just coming across as friendly. She often offers to do things for you, carry your things and small things like that. But then she starts doing rather intimate things like wiping food off your face with her thumb, or fixing your hair, or grabbing your hand, or perhaps even getting jealous of a girl flirting with you and becoming rather protective.
- Vivi is certainly not subtle with her feelings, is she? It isnât until Igaram makes a teasing comment does Vivi realize and become very embarrassed about it.
- Vivi gets more flustered around you as a result, her cheeks a constant shade of red whenever youâre close by, and she canât help but stare at you for an uncomfortable period of time, before she laughs it off with a âyou had something in your hair, let me get it!â
- asking you out was something that made Vivi a bit nervous. But her father simply told her thereâs no way youâd reject her, a princess. Youâd be lucky to even be in her presence.
- Vivi hoped her father was right, but nerves still ate away at her as she slowly tried to figure out some kind of plan on how to confess her feelings for you. Because honestly, she felt kinda wrong for keeping a secret like this from such a dear friend.
- she just takes you on a private dinner, and confesses to you that way. Of course, dinner already made by Terracotta upon Viviâs request. It would have a normal vibe to it, like any other time you and Vivi have a private dinner. But thereâs definitely something intimate about it, despite Viviâs shaky hands. Her affection for you just comes naturally. Perhaps she just likes to fuss over you, repeatedly dabbing your face with a napkin like sheâs been your wife for 30 years. Her confession slips out randomly, trying to vocalize her jumbled thoughts.
- Robins feelings slowly progress as well, but sheâs quick to realizing her feelings. Robin may have not had many friends in her life, but sheâs able to recognize what she feels for you isnât traditional friendship. She definitely feels a particular affection for you. Sheâs never liked anyone before, but any nerves she may feel you cannot sense at all.
- Robin does express it in small ways, giving you hints. She doesnât really try to shy away from anything. There have been times where youâve fallen asleep, whether at a table or on the couch, hell even on the floor against a wall. When you wake up from your nap youâll find Robins purple blanket on top of you.
- Robin is prone to teasing you at times as well, especially if your reactions are amusing to her. If you get flustered by it, sheâs going to do it a lot more often. From time to time, after giving small teases and jokes to test the waters, she may lightly flirt with you.
- Robin also just loves including you in things and spending time with you. Even when sheâs doing her research and finding poneglyphs, she doesnât mind bringing you with her. Which is a big honor for you.
- Robin would hold your hand from time to time. Her hand is soft and gentle, beautiful hands, truly. She will often find excuses to grab your hand, but if you pry she wonât shy from saying she simply wanted to hold your hand. In truth, she feels a sense of comfort from it. You can catch the faintest of pink on her cheeks.
- asking you out is something she would plan over time. She considers carefully how she would like to, but she doesnât try to overthink it either. Itâs not going to be perfect and it doesnât need to be.
- she would simply ask you to come with her on one of her little poneglyph adventures, in reality sheâs just going on a random walk and talking with you, about life or just anything. She would eventually tell you she is really happy you two met. Which eventually would lead to her confession.
- Franky is super friendly with you at first. Despite being in his thirties, Franky has never had a crush before. Heâs certainly a pervert, and can appreciate a good looking guy or gal, and in his earlier days perhaps indulged in drunken hookups, but heâs never felt that deeply for somebody that heâd wanna date them.
- Thatâs why he knows he likes you a bit too much pretty instantly. Although he tries to act the same towards you as he would with chopper, Usopp, and the others. This doesnât last too long in his favor though. Because at some point his feelings grow more and more.
- Zoro teases him for it, saying Franky had a cyborg malfunction or something. But Franky canât even be annoyed by it, just depressed. When around you, his face turns all red, the metal on his body heating up considerably as he starts to steam. Heâs like a teenage boy with a dumb crush.
- He canât even look you in the eyes properly anymore, and avoids one on one conversations with you a lot of the time. And anytime he is alone with you, he doesnât know what to say. âHaving some super weather today⌠huh..â his brain malfunctions, turns to mush.
- Franky beats himself up for it for quite awhile because he is well aware he is far too old to be having absolutely no game. Heâs not sure if itâs worse for you to notice or not to notice. But either way the topic comes up in conversation with Robin and Brook, âwhen will you confess? This is getting pretty sad Franky.â âI must agree, Yohoho.. this display is becoming embarrassing!â
- Confessing to you is kinda terrifying for him, but he doesnât wanna be a coward so he goes for it. With his bigass hand he carryâs some flowers and hands them to you. âThey reminded me of you! HeheâŚâ
- heâd be sweating a lot as he tries to ask you out shortly after that. But honestly he doesnât know what heâs doing. Heâd talk to you in a mocking robotic voice to lighten the mood because heâs nervous, but youâre laughing so he hopes thatâs a good sign.
- Brook is⌠well⌠not expecting much. Brook is more than aware his appearance is not.. well⌠conventionally attractive. That being said, Brook admires you from the moment you meet. And as you two become closer friends, his feelings for you strengthen with time.
- Brook tries to treat you like anyone else, because he honestly thinks it would just be awkward to face the inevitable rejection. So he cracks jokes with you and tries to treat you like how heâd treat Robin, Nami, franky.
- But alas, even if it he only bones, he supposes he canât help but fall in love. Brook constantly seeks out your attention and constantly likes to spend his time with you. He cares for you deeply and it reflects in how he treats you.
- Brook seeks to protect you. While having faith in your abilities, there are times where he canât help but whisk you away from a monster, carrying you away bridal style, and perhaps making a joke or two about it. Or perhaps singing you to sleep after a nightmare youâve had. Brook loves to protect and care for you.
- At some point, Brook is forced to acknowledge his feelings for you are not going to go away, and something needs to be done about them. He doesnât love the sound of it, doesnât like the idea of making your friendship awkward. But he also knows this isnât something he can hold in forever and continue to pretend like things are normal.
- Brook decides to keep things simple. This is mainly because he doesnât think it really matters if he does something extravagant, youâll say no regardless. He treats it more like a serious conversation. He takes you out on a walk, and tells you he has something âimportantâ he needs to tell you.
- and then he confesses, whole heartedly, even if he doesnât have a heart. He tells you everything he likes about you, when he started to like you, the guilt he feels for liking you, for even telling you, but knowing he needs it off of his chest. He pours his soul out, and tells you he understands you donât like him back. Which is why, when you do return the feelings, he lets out a high pitched scream of surprise.
- Jinbe knows what heâs feeling pretty quickly, though they develop slowly as he gets to know you better. Jinbe chooses not to act upon them. He feels a particular sense of needing to prove himself as a newer strawhat, and acting upon such feelings doesnât really put him in a good light.
- Perhaps a dumb way to think, but thatâs just how he feels. So he remains a friend for awhile. Trying to act normally around you. For the most part it works, he has just about everyone fooled on the matter. But nobody can truly hide their feelings around Nico Robin, and she catches onto it eventually. And she does not hesitate to tease Jinbe a little.
- The fishman is rather embarrassed by it, and due to that newfound tension he starts to slip up more around you. A pink blush on his blue cheeks whenever heâs talking to you, gives him away.
- even he canât help but notice how protective heâs gotten of you, even if he knows you can hold your own just fine. Or even the way he laughs rather loudly at one of your dumb jokes that arenât even that funny. Jinbe clearly adores you, and the rest of the crew find it rather adorable.
- Jinbe would only ever plan this sort of confession once he got Luffys blessing, who of course supported it. So jinbe got to planning out a way to confess.
- While Jinbe racked his brain quite a bit, jinbe eventually decided he would just go for it. Thereâs no need to overthink it. Jinbe has never been in long lasting relationships, but he can figure this out just fine.
- when he confesses, his idea is being alone. The two of you swimming together at night. You trust jinbe to protect you if a sea monster or something is to come bother you two in the water. Jinbe makes a comment about the stars in the sky, before he would give you a confession and ask you out. Itâs heartfelt with a smile. While heâs nervous about how youâll react, he feels a weight lift off his shoulders after heâs finished.
- Yamato has never liked anyone before. The closest to a crush was with Ace and he certainly wouldnât consider that relationship love or anything. Just a friendship he was robbed of. That being said, Yamato wonât realize his feelings for you at first. Or even for awhile.
- In fact heâll be friends with you for a long time before finally Hiyori and Kiku just break the news to him, since they fully know Yamato has no damn idea. And when that moment happens, where Yamato is forced to realize he likes you, he doesnât even know what to do.
- After that, Yamato is suddenly blushing around you all the time, before running off and finding excuses to leave your conversations. The only time Yamato can talk to you without freaking out is if itâs a serious topic.
- Yamato ends up developing a nervous habit of twirling his hair. And Yamato kinda hates it to be honest. Heâs acting like such a girl! Heâs kinda getting dysphoria over it.
- He doesnât even see confessing as an option. Heâs gotta be like Oden, he doesnât have time for love! That is until Momonosuke reminds Yamato that he was literally born because Oden fell in love.
- So Yamato decided, well⌠if he really is Oden, he should tell you how he feels with full confidence. No fear of his love for you at all! If only he truly felt that way.
- so after months of constantly acting weird around you, voice cracking and all, he calls you for an important âmeetingâ. As to which he basically tells you, âI know Iâve been acting weirdâ before he starts explaining himself, and confessing what heâs been feeling towards you. While he tries to convey confidence, fierceness even, heâs blushing quite a lot.
