I do wonder if Usopp expected them to claim him the way they did! He seemed so prepared to go off on his own, and his whole brain shut down when they told him. It’s like he didn’t even consider his new friends an option! Either that, or he considered asking them but decided there was no way they’d let him tag along.
Anyway. I love that Luffy n gang have clearly discussed that they’re bringing Usopp along(or y’know. Telepathically came to the conclusion, whatever they do), but totally neglected to include the guy himself in the conversation. Then they act like he’s the crazy one when he has no idea what they’re talking about.
