[Video description: a clip from the One Piece anime during the Dressrosa arc. Barto is collapsed on his face and sobbing with joy in the foreground. Behind him, a handcuffed Law sits cross-legged on the ground. He appears to be eyeing Barto skeptically. Luffy runs over, holding Law’s sword, and picks up Law with one arm. Law allows himself to be carried without resistance, and ends up draped limply over Luffy’s shoulder like a wet rag or perhaps a ferret. End description.]

Happy holidays to you too starlight ✨, this one was so silly to write about, I've wrote it with many characters in it, this actually took me a lot of time to write it, so I hope you enjoy it starlight ✨

The Absolute Gentlemen (This is their natural state)

Sanji: The undisputed king. This isn't an act; it's his core programming. He will arrive with the perfect flowers, cook you a life-changing meal, and pull out your chair with a flourish. He'll gaze at you with heart-eyes, hang on your every word, and declare his undying devotion before the appetizers even arrive. It would be over-the-top, incredibly chivalrous, and completely sincere.

Cavendish: As a prince, formal courtship is his specialty. He's all about grand, public gestures to cement his image as the perfect dashing hero. Expect a massive, expensive bouquet, a reservation at the most exclusive restaurant, and him draping his cape over a puddle. It's partly for his ego, but he's also genuinely dedicated to making you feel like royalty.

Thatch: As the cook of the Whitebeard Pirates, Thatch has Sanji-level charm but with a more laid-back, playful vibe. He'd bring you a beautiful bouquet, cook a fantastic and fun meal, and have you laughing all night. He's a natural flirt who genuinely enjoys people, so the chivalry would feel effortless and warm, not performative.

The Absolute Professionals (They'd plan the perfect date)

Sir Crocodile: He'd do it, but it would be a power move. The date would be at the most exclusive, expensive restaurant, with a private room. He'd bring a rare, priceless flower. The chair pull would be smooth and practiced, but it's less about being a gentleman and more about displaying dominance and showing that he can provide a level of luxury no one else can. It's a performance of control.

Donquixote Doflamingo: Similar to Crocodile but with more flamboyant sadism. He'd go all out to overwhelm his date. The flowers would be so extravagant they're almost gaudy. He'd pull out your chair with a smirk, enjoying the power dynamic. The entire date is a game to him, and he's making sure you know he's in complete control of your enjoyment.

Charlotte Katakuri: His smoothness would be quiet, observant, and deeply unnerving in its perfection. He would anticipate your every need—your favorite wine already ordered, your chair pulled out before you even think to look for it. The earnestness is his complete lack of pretense; he is not performing. He has simply decided you are worthy of his flawless, dedicated attention, and he will execute the evening with the same precision he uses to defeat his enemies.

The Surprisingly Smooth & Earnest

Marco: Marco is calm, mature, and thoughtful. His approach wouldn't be over-the-top, but it would be incredibly sincere. He'd pick a nice, quiet spot, bring a simple but elegant bouquet of your favorite flowers (because he paid attention when you mentioned it), and be a perfect, attentive listener. He'd pull out your chair without a second thought because it's just the polite thing to do. It would be a very comfortable, classy, and romantic evening.

Rob Lucci: This is a fascinating one. If Lucci were to take you on a date, it would be a display of calculated perfection. Every move—from pulling out your chair to the timing of the conversation—would be precise and controlled. He'd bring a single, flawless flower. It wouldn't be warm and fuzzy, but it would be undeniably impressive and smooth in an intimidating, almost robotic way. You'd feel like you're on a date with a secret agent who is meticulously executing "Operation: Romantic Evening."

Smoker: This is where Smoker fits perfectly. He's the definition of "gruff but earnest." He wouldn't be smooth in a charming way, but in a no-nonsense, capable way. He'd show up on time, maybe with a slightly squashed but well-intentioned bouquet of flowers he picked up on the way. He'd pull out your chair with a grumble, like it's a chore he's obligated to do, but the fact that he does it is the sincere part. He's a man of action, and these small acts of service are his way of showing he cares, even if he looks annoyed the whole time. It's awkward, but deeply genuine.

The Confident & Smooth (They'd be effortlessly charming)

Ace: Ace's charm is completely natural. He wouldn't do it because of etiquette, but because he genuinely adores you and wants to make you smile. He'd bring you wildflowers he picked himself because they reminded him of you. He'd pull out your chair with a cocky grin. The date would be less about a formal script and more about him wanting to share his adventurous, free-spirited world with you, with little acts of kindness woven in seamlessly.

Shanks: Shanks makes everything feel like the best party ever. A date with him would be relaxed, fun, and full of laughter. He'd absolutely bring you flowers (probably presented with a dramatic flair) and hold your chair, but it would all feel casual and cool. He's the type to make you feel like the most important person in the room just by the way he pays attention to you amidst the chaos of his crew.

Trafalgar Law: He'd overthink it. He'd have a plan, probably a quiet, low-key place, but he'd be slightly awkward trying to execute the "gentleman" moves. He'd bring flowers because he read it's the right thing to do. He'd pull out your chair, but it might feel a little stiff. The charm comes from the fact that he's clearly trying his best for you, even if it's outside his comfort zone.

Dracule Mihawk: The ultimate minimalist romantic. He wouldn't do a lot, but what he does would be incredibly impactful. He'd take you to a quiet, elegant place. He might bring a single, perfect rose. He'd pull out your chair with a silent, graceful motion. It's all about refined taste and quiet confidence. He wouldn't shower you with words, but his focused attention would be more romantic than any grand gesture.

Charlotte Perospero: For Perospero, this level of twisted affection is his default state. Creating a candy world for his date is as natural as breathing. He wouldn't have to try to be romantic; his idea of love is to shower you with his creations. He'd effortlessly construct a candy bouquet, a candy chair, and a candy limousine. It's a smooth, seamless process for him, born from a genuine, albeit sticky and possessive, desire to spoil you rotten.

The "Trying Their Best" Category

Buggy: Oh, he'd try. He'd show up with flowers he probably stole, trip while pulling out your chair, and spend half the date talking about himself. He's trying to emulate what he thinks a cool, suate pirate captain should do, but his insecurity and greed would get in the way. It would be a hilarious, memorable failure, but the effort would technically be there.

Bartolomeo: His version of "going all out" is worship. He wouldn't just pull out your chair; he'd probably get on his knees and praise the ground you walk on. He'd bring you flowers that look like they were stolen from a sacred altar. It's intense, a little creepy, and way over-the-top, but it comes from a place of absolute, slavish devotion. You wouldn't just be his date; you'd be his god.

Sabo: Sabo is a nobleman by birth, so the etiquette is probably buried in his DNA somewhere. He would absolutely make the effort to be a gentleman. He'd pull out your chair, hold the door, and likely bring flowers—though they'd probably be something simple and heartfelt rather than a huge, extravagant bouquet. The thing about Sabo is that he's also a revolutionary chief of staff, so his mind is often on other things. The date would be sweet and chivalrous, but you might catch him staring off into the distance for a second, mentally running through a battle plan before he catches himself and gives you an apologetic, charming smile. The effort is genuine, even if he's a little distracted by saving the world.

The "What's a Date?" (They have no idea what they're doing)

Luffy: The concept of a "date" is completely lost on him. If you said "let's go on a date," he'd hear "let's go on an adventure!" You'd end up on a deserted island fighting a giant boar, and he'd think it was the best date ever. He wouldn't bring you flowers unless he thought they looked cool or could be used as a weapon.

Roronoa Zoro: He has no idea what "romance" is. You'd have to literally tell him, "Pull out my chair." He'd look at you, look at the chair, and probably say, "Why? It's right there." He'd forget the flowers, get lost on the way to the restaurant, and suggest an arm-wrestling match for fun. The only "grand gesture" he's capable of is protecting you with his life, which he would do without hesitation.

Katakuri (I've placed him in two different scenarios in my head): He's too shy and private. A formal date would be his worst nightmare. He'd be too worried about his mouth or saying the wrong thing. He'd be much more comfortable just sharing donuts in a quiet, private place where he can relax.

The first time Bartolomeo meets the Straw Hat crew in person, it’s everything he ever dreamed of.

“Straw Hat-senpaiiiiii!!!” He falls to his knees, tears streaming, hands clasped in pure, unfiltered reverence “I-I’m not worthy to stand in your presence!!”

Luffy laughs, delighted by the over thetop reaction “You’re funny, Barto! Let’s go eat!”
