"Are you sure you're fine?" pointed Chopper, skeptical.
"For the last time, yeah." he assured the reindeer.
"Don't remove the bandages!"
"It was just a scratch..." commented Zoro with ease.
"You fell into a huge whirlpool! You're lucky to be alive!"
"... just a scratch. Now, let me go."
"You're not leaving this place even if I have to tie you to bed!" yelled Chopper, transforming to Heavy Point. Even if it had to be through force, he would make sure his patients were safe and didn't go bleeding over the place, as Zoro would surely do if he removed those bandages and went to train. Doctorine had taught him that well.
"Oi, don't go growing huge all of a sudden!"
"Perhaps I can be of assistance?" None of them had noticed the archeologist, who had entered the sick bay while both of them argued.
"Robin?"
"What do you want wo-"
"Seis fleur."
oo00oo00oo00oo00oo
"What the hell happened to you?" asked Nami, raising an eyebrow.
Zoro was literally tied to the bed by his arms and legs, and a fifth rope tied his chest to the bed too. Somehow, Nami suspected Robin's claim earlier that she was going to check the swordsman's condition had something to do with this.
"Wanna let me go?"
"Are you going to train?"
He didn't answer, but if he had yelled yes it would've been the same. And he already knew what she was going to reply when he answered. They knew each other too well; she would never allow him to train under those conditions.
"Hm... thanks... I guess."
"It was nothing." she dismissed the subject by moving her hand sideways. "I just added it to your debt."
"What? How did you work that out? Do you want me to keep a debt for all the times I saved your butt?"
"Oh, my dear moron, do we really need to go over this again?" she granted him a teasing smirk. "You wouldn't get it even if I explained it."
"Tsk, greedy witch."
"How very sweet of you."
"Your welcome."
"You wanna know the worst thing of this ropes?" he taunted, smirking at the thought.
"What?"
"There's no way I'm getting lucky tonight with them." Zoro's smirk widened. "Wanna untie them?"
Of course, there it was, that stupid, shameless Zoro they all knew and loved. Well, at least he wasn't being the angsty, out of character Zoro they all hated (everyone had their days) and for that, she was grateful. He had even thanked her for saving him from the damn whirlpool! Nami didn't know if she should be angry or happy. She settled for a mixture of both when remembering what he had implied.
"Ha ha, very funny you dumbass." she stood up and marched towards the door. "I think you're the last person on this ship I would sleep with. No, in the world."
"Even Robin? Wow woman, that's kin-"
"I don't want to hear you! Bye, sleep tight!" she ran out the door instantly.
"Heh, that won't be a problem." he glanced towards the ropes below him. "Man these are tight. What is wrong with Robin?"
Nami sighed once she was out. Good, she had gone out before he commented any further into her lie. He wasn't the last one on the ship she would sleep with, actually she would be...
She decided to kill that train of thought. Immediately. No need to rank her nakamas in order of preference as regards that, right? That would be awkward. Still, if she had to choose...
"Stupid marimo, I'll kill you one of these days" she complained as she hurried back to the kitchen.
On the other side of the door, he just smirked. He had won a discussion with the witch! This demanded a celebration!
