              He knew the other wouldn’t stay still, unlike Zoro who could just pass out and not bother with anything for hours on end, unless Luffy was knocked out, he never really stayed still even when injured. 

So, when he heard Chopper fussing with Luffy due to him having some sort of injury he sighed and got up, stretching a bit, and heading off to take care of things. What was anything but the fact that he’d spent a long time on sea with Luffy, and despite the others as well, he didn’t share all of his secrets. That and he was probably strong enough to deal with the other.

          Walking into the medbay he sat on the bed Luffy huffed and puffed on, before gently knocking their foreheads together.

hug!! perhaps as consolation for decking him at marineford who knows HGJFKDHJDK

NON SEXUAL ACTS OF AFFECTION

“L-Luffy-san!” This was probably the first time Luffy hadn’t decked him when they saw each other. He couldn’t blame the pirate – the first time had been so he could get into the Marines, the second had been during a war, and well to be frank, he had been expecting a third. It was relieving to know that this time the other recognized him! The hug in itself had been a surprise, but Coby wasn’t one to turn down a small but meaningful act, returning it even if only momentarily. So upon stepping back, he gave a bit of a nervous laugh, taking in the sight of the other, wondering what adventures he had been up to that hadn’t made the front page of the news.

“Mmh, okay.” He nods, pretty easily convinced though still quick to note the hushed tone of his voice. Luffy cradles his own head behind his hands as he walks alongside Yamato, quirks a brow.

“Is everything okay? Hey, if anybody’s bugging you I’ll kick their butt, alright?” Not, of course, that he doesn’t think Yamato could handle that himself. He’s obviously shown himself to be more than capable. It’s less that Luffy thinks he needs the help, and more that he’ll always offer help to anyone he considers a friend!

“Oh Luffy-san! I was just getting bored of this island, I want to see more!” Yamato grinned at the Monkey with all the madness of a certain plate-haired man. His energy was intense, but that probably wasn’t something hard for Luffy to match. An excited gleam never left his bright orange eyes.

And of course, Luffy knows it’s not a serious threat (he can just sort of suss these things out, most times), but it doesn’t prevent him from responding in a similarly brash way, even if it’s more or less a joke.

“Nuh-uh!”

Yeah, that’s all he’s got. Still, it is effective at communicating his sentiment if nothing else! He then briefly sticks his tongue out, before his expression settles from combative to friendly again.

“Besides, you wouldn’t do that anyway. We’re friends!”

   “We are not- Argh!” Law snarls, words coming out louder than he’d like. Nothing in this world ruins his composure like Monkey D. Luffy. Always so perfectly controlled and calm. Then this little energetic fucker turned up in his life and everything keeps falling apart. He can practically feel his blood pressure skyrocketing.

   Hang on. Does his right arm feel numb?

   Law shoves Straw Hat and his impossibly bright smile away from him, his grip on the other captain’s collar releasing. He turns about, hand rising to grip at his chest to feel a heart pounding a little too much. Breaths come short with the stress of Luffy’s latest decision to just lead them into danger. He hunches forwards a little, eyes searching as he pieces through his symptoms.

   “Oh, fuck. Think I’m havin’ a heart attack,” he groans.

      🕷”Luffy this isn’t a game you can’t just expect me to have an answer off the top of my head!” She should have been use to this nonsense by now from the other. After all the trouble of Impel Down and on Amazon Lily  but even after all that he didn’t change. 

            How was he able to function with such simple thinking? Then again she was so use to people getting right to the point that hearing if from straw hat made it odd. 

           She puffed at more of his impatient quandaries of her answer, maybe she shouldn’t have asked in the first place. With no answer right off the bat the raven hair had thought he’d have dropped it. 

            “I know I'm the one that asked you first but there’s many on your crew that wouldn’t like me hitching a ride. That’s why I hesitate but even if it’s just for a little while ….” Layla looked away ashamed that she had to ask his help. Again.

❰❰ LEAN ❱❱ sender leans against receiver

Woah! Tashigi had heard rumors about the Straw Hat captain not knowing the concepts of personal space but thought she was immune to that because he really only focused on Smoker instead. The marine captain thinks Luffy does that just to mess with the man, since her boss got quite angry from all the silliness Straw Hat has done around him, like stealing his cigars and asking him if he ever ate a cloud before. Surely, none of that happened around her. Tashigi was quite forgettable even in most circles. Everyone just saw a faceless marine most of the time. Anyone could replace her and no one would notice. That’s how insignificant she was.

So when Luffy leans against her and asks to wear her glasses for a short time, Tashigi doesn’t know how to respond actually. She can feel Smoker’s stare, more like glare across the room but the crew members are just looking over where the two are with confused faces. Mostly from a certain pirate hunter, who tells the Straw Hat captain to leave ‘Glasses’ alone, and a certain chef who is jealous that Luffy is leaning against his ‘Tashigi-chan’. She wants to retort to the other two that are making stupid comments but still wants to address their captain who almost is taking her glasses with an outstretched hand, giggling to himself.

❰❰ EMBRACE ❱❱ !

          “luffy!!!” usopp was all smiles when his captain jumped into his arms and wrapped his rubbery apendages around and around him many times. the sniper was snickering as he allowed the other to do so, his own arms finding their way around luffy’s torso. 

      but not only that, usopp’s face started to nuzzle into luffy’s neck, wanting even more affection if he could be so greedy.

❰❰ TACKLE ❱❱ !

Honestly, the swordsman was always prepared when seeing Luffy if they weren't in battle to be tackled as fast and heavy as the rubberman could possibly do.

He hadn't been fully braced though this time as he spotted the captain of the straw hats set his eyes upon the swordsman, and he only had a moment to brace himself as the other tackled him.

Despite this though, he began to laugh loudly, stepping back a few times to regain footing before deciding to fuck it and fell back, landing on the deck of the sunny, the grass cushioning the fall.

' Yes, hello to you too. ' He snorted out, face buried in the others shirt as he decided to let Luffy just get all of his hug bug out, then explain exactly why he got tackled.
