So, um… I'm gonna change their appearances to how they are after the time skip. I don't know if I'm going to change their ages though. I guess I'll only make them a year older since it's been almost a year since this thing was started. Besides, we don't know when they changed their looks, so it's okay. Right?

Zoro sat dejectedly in his cell. After the incident last night, the guards had moved him to a slightly less accommodating area. He tugged at the cold chains that held him firmly against the wall and glanced mournfully at the food sitting smugly across the room. It was taunting him, he knew it. Either that or the guards where just being asses. They didn't seem to understand that what had happened was an accident. They weren't even allowing him to his unfortunate victim. Chopper had visited, but they only allowed him to treat the wound over the wolf man's left eye. It was apparently going to scar and he wouldn't be able to use it anymore.

He decided that was a fine punishment seeing as he nearly killed someone. He had nearly cried from relief when he heard that Sanji was okay. He really hadn't meant to hurt anyone. It was the stupid blond's fault anyway. He knew Zoro couldn't control himself during the full moon and came to see him anyway. Zoro growled and banged his head against the wall, wincing when he felt the trickle of warm blood against the back of his head.

The green haired man felt like he should be singing a depressing song about being in jail and attacking Sanji to harmonica music, but he wasn't really much of a singer and he would die of embarrassment if someone happened to walk in. So he continued to entertain himself by attempting pull ups. It didn't really work out very well considering the chains had too much give.

Zoro them switched his focus to the plate of food. He knew it was hopeless, but he attempted to move it with his mind. As he glared harshly at the now cold meal, he vaguely heard sounds of yelling and fighting outside. The door banged open and he looked up, cursing because he thought that he'd seen the plate move. He had made progress in his Jedi-ness(1) and now he had to start all over!

"Hey! You broke my concentra- Sanji?" Relief spread through him as he looked at the slightly disheveled blond. "Are you okay? I seriously didn't mean to attack you… It's your fault, anyway." He said, recalling his earlier thoughts.

Sanji looked flabbergasted, "What? My fault? How is it my fault?"

"You came in here… Why are you here anyway?" Zoro asked, changing the subject. He had made his point, after all.

"I came to get you out, stupid." He replied, unlocking the handcuffs(2).

"You're stupid." He retorted, rubbing his sore and slightly bloody wrists.

"I think being devoid of sunlight for so long killed more of your marimo brain cells." He answered, raising an eyebrow. "What happened to your eye?"

"Huh? Oh, one of the guards got me with their spear. It's no big deal."

Sanji looked at him, eyebrow raised, as he tried to comprehend the simple minded creature before him. He decided that Zoro didn't feel pain and left it at that. "Okay, whatever, let's go… Robin and Chopper are worried about you… Luffy is, too." The prince informed the other man as they exited the dungeon.

A guard jumped when Zoro growled at him. The wolf grinned slightly when he the man's armor rattling.

"So," Sanji started as they walked down the hall, "I think you deserve punishment for attacking me."

"What? I warned you I couldn't control myself! And you came in when it wasn't safe!" The green haired man barked, tail bristling in anger.

"That doesn't matter. You're my pet and I have to punish you. How else will you learn?" He looked smugly at the other male, who was fuming.

"You're an asshole, you know that?" He grumbled, crossing his arms and being careful not to lose sight of the blond. He didn't want to get lost in the dungeon, who knows what kind of creepy people where down there. "Hey, did you change your hair?" He asked.

"Hmm? Yeah, I did. Why?" The prince questioned, turning to look at Zoro.

"That means that…" Zoro started laughing all of the sudden, barely able to speak. "Your- your eyebrows- t-they" he snorted "they curl in the same direction?" At the slight blush on the other man's face, the wolf started cackling. He clutched his stomach, tears welling up in his good eye. "Oh, man, that's great."

"Shut up!" Sanji admonished. "Now you doubled your punishment!" With that, he grabbed the still giggling man by the wrist and dragged him off.

*New Scene*

Zoro sat laughing with Luffy and Usopp. They were outside, enjoying the weather. The swordsman, being the wolf that he is, repeatedly tried to convince his blond master to let him sleep outside, but Sanji just wouldn't have it. It had been a year since he had arrived at the palace, and now he had friend and a higher I.Q. He wanted to stay there forever, throwing his head back in laughter when Luffy tried to steal honey from a bee hive, then running away with the two younger boys as they attempted to escape the angry bugs.

He didn't even want to think about what kind of punishment Sanji had planned for him. After he had made fun of the other man's eyebrows, he was actually a little worried. It couldn't be good. The last time he'd been punished had been a nightmare. He spent the entire day peeling potatoes. It sucked. There was nothing interesting about it. Just seeing how fast he could get them peeled was what kept him from losing his mind.

Zoro rolled in the grass, he always loved grass. They had managed to elude the bees and where panting in the garden, near the fountain. The trio of slaves had no idea that a certain prince was watching them, or rather, the swordsman, from the library window.

"Zoro-kun is rather attractive when he smiles, don't you think Prince-san?" Sanji jumped at the sound of Robin's voice.

"I have no idea what you're talking about Robin-swan. You are so much more attractive than that scar covered brute!" He grinned at her, holding her hand in his.

"I think the scars add to his appearance. They make him seem so mysterious."

"The only mysterious thing about him is his sense of direction, I'm afraid. He's the most straight-forward person I've ever met." The blond laughed.

Sanji liked that about Zoro; even in he'd never admit it. The simple man was a breath of fresh air when he was surrounded by servants and nobles all day. They lied through their teeth. Even he was guilty of it sometimes. And he couldn't trust Usopp as far as he could throw him. He could kick him miles away, but throwing wasn't his thing.

Sanji was thrust back into reality when he realized that Luffy had thrown Zoro into the fountain. The now wet man surfaced, angry and spluttering, before throwing his soaking shirt to the side and chasing the rubbery teen around the courtyard. The blond swallowed as he watched the tanned man. In the past year he had built his muscle back up.

Sanji had honestly expected him to be larger; he was toned, but lithe. Sanji grinned a little when he realized how wide the man's hips were. He could tease him about being curvy later. He knew how Zoro hated having his manliness brought into question.

The Lycan caught Luffy and flung him into the fountain. He turned to Usopp, who froze and began running. Zoro gave chase, even though he would probably never catch the goblin. "Must be prey drive…" Sanji muttered to himself.

He hadn't even noticed when Robin excused herself.

Well, I know that wasn't very dramatic, but this is a humor story… I didn't have much inspiration for this chapter. But it was longer than the last one, so that's good. If you have any ideas for Zoro's punishment (that don't involve lemons) I would be happy to hear them. I honestly have no idea what to do.

Let's pretend there are Jedis.

I didn't know what else to call them.
