Someone suggested a moment between Evelyn and Mihawk or all the Shichibukai. Kind of a way to explain why they like her. Or more like, why Mihawk likes her enough to stay in contact without making Doffy jealous. This may or may not show why, but I thought these little moments would be kind of fun.
Anyway, moving on!

Here the Chapter Starts
Bother - Mihawk
"Poke," she muttered, touching his shoulder. "Bother, bother, poke, poke."
"Why must you do that?" he asked with a heavy sigh, his golden eyes closing. After dealing with Shanks as often as he does, there was little that could annoy him. Yet just like his red-haired friend, she is determined to find out what can annoy him.
"To bug you," she quipped with a scoff. "Doffy's off annoying Crocodile again, so I get to annoy someone myself." She rolled her eyes with a laugh. "If I wasn't so sure that man loves me as much as he does, I would question his sexuality and faithfulness."
Mihawk choked on the wine he was sipping, looking at her with wide eyes.
"And there's a reaction!" she chirped, smirking victoriously. "I knew you had one in there somewhere."
He glared at her before letting out a small huff. "You take great enjoyment at my expense," he noted, placing his drink down.
"Let's be honest," she scoffed, rolling her eyes. "If I go anywhere near Boa Hancock, I may strangle her. Moriah makes me want to throw him into the sea just to get him to stop laughing. Jimbei and Kuma are no fun. And my husband likes to aggravate Crocodile more than anyone else. The last Shichibukai is my husband, meaning I see him every day. So that leaves me with you."
"And you must try your hardest to annoy me?" Mihawk inquired curiously.
"You seem like a difficult person to annoy, so yes," she answered with a smirk dancing upon her lips.
The swordsman quirked a brow before suggesting, "You could just go strangle Hancock."
Her laugh colored the air.
Calls - Mihawk
"So get this, because I have yet to understand it," she started, peering out the window. "One of the kids loves tossing Dellinger into the water, where Fighter Fish swim. And the Fighter Fish actually throw him back. It is the weirdest thing."
The snail stared at her curiously. "Perhaps the Fighter Fish do not want to be bitten again," the bored tone informed.
"No, it can't be that," she dismissed with a wave of her hand. "They bite each other all the time. It just makes no sense. They should be trying to eat him, not throw him back out."
"Then I am as stumped as you are, Evelyn," Mihawk sighed through the den-den mushi. "I do not live there, so I do not know the native animals or their behavior."
"Speaking of native animals, how are your apes doing?" she asked, twirling a string of yarn around her porcelain finger.
"The baboons are fine, still fighting each other and still trying to challenge me."
"At least you get some exercise. And a bit of a challenge. Run into anyone worthy of battle, lately?"
A deep sigh of annoyance. "Not particularly. Many try to challenge me, but they are all beaten without me drawing Yoru."
"You fight with that dagger, don't you?"
"Every time."
"You're such a pain in the ass."
"Isn't that your husband?"
"No, Doffy's is an asshole. There is a difference between an 'asshole' and a 'pain in the ass'."
"Who's a pain in the ass?" Doflamingo asked as he entered the room, spotting his wife on the den-den mushi.
She turned to him and tilted her head. "Mihawk, of course."
The blonde stared at her for a moment before shaking his head. "If that makes you happy, my rose."
Gamble – Crocodile
He thought it interesting that she could simply twirl her finger in the air and any smoke coming from his cigar would follow that finger into a ring, gathering it so it wouldn't spill into her lungs. Yet her eyes never looked away from the problem between them, ignoring his chuckles or him stroking his golden hook. She also didn't reveal anything, but maybe he could get her to trip up.
"You look nervous," he commented as he took the cigar from his mouth.
"Not really," she said blandly, hardly glancing at him. "I'm just thinking."
"Of how to admit defeat?"
"Blow more smoke out of your mouth," she scoffed, waving her hand and sending the smoke ring away. "It looks better than the shit spilling from your lips."
"Kuhahaha," he laughed lowly. "You're awfully defensive, my dear."
"Call me your anything and you have to deal with my husband," she pointed out, glaring at him momentarily through the bangs hanging over her eyes. "But I have made up my mind." Smirking, she leaned towards the Suna-Suna user. "Depending on how this goes, one of us will be walking away happy."
"Alright." He waved his hands invitingly. "Then make your move."
Picking up a piece, she easily put it into place. "Check and mate."
Humming curiously, he scanned over the board then blandly looked to her. "Indeed."
Grinning victoriously, she leaned back into her chair and held out her hand. "I win, Croc. Hand it over."
Scowling, he removed his treasured hook from his wrist and held it out for her. "You're going to leave me one handed now?" he asked, trying to coax guilt from her.
It didn't work. "You were already one-handed," she pointed out, rotating the hook in her hands. "Besides, I'm not keeping it. I just want something from it."
"What would that be, exactly?" Crocodile asked with a quirked brow as she removed the golden cover to reveal his poisoned hook.
"This stuff," Evelyn chirped, fishing a empty bottle from her pocket and gathering some of the liquid poison from the hook. "Pretty interesting and I plan on finding out what you used for it." Putting the cover back on when she was done, she handed the hook back to its rightful owner. "Thanks! We should play chess again sometime!"
"Why?" the Shichibukai inquired disdainfully. "You always win."
"Because you always want to have a feel if you win," she shot back. "And it's fun knocking you down a peg. If it makes you feel any better, you're more of a challenge than this little snot-nosed brat I once knew, and was betrothed to. Ugh!"
"What happened to him?" he asked curiously.
"Doffy killed him."
"Of course he did…"
Here the Chapter Ends
Not as long as I would have liked it, but I can't think of anything else to put. If anyone has an idea, please share. I welcome ideas! ^^
