Prompt: From usernamesrus who told me the very interesting fact that otters bang their tails on watery surfaces to warn others of danger and wanted to know how the crew would react.

Friendly reminder that prompts are so very much welcome! Make them as ridiculous/cool/Iimaginative etc as you want!

The scream that came from the shower room that morning rang throughout the whole ship and shook the water around them. The crew burst out of rooms and jumped up from where they sat in a haste as the shower door banged open and an enraged Nami came storming out dripping wet and haphazardly covered with a towel.

"I don't know how he got in but he fucking did!" She yelled.

Luffy laughed, remarking how Nami looked like the sea witch Zoro always called her and Sanji kicked him upside the head before turning to her, bruise framed eyes looking up to her in adoration, "Nami, my darling, what's wrong?"

"Get him out, get him fucking OUT!" Nami screeched, pointing furiously at the open door with the steam coiling out.

"HIM?!" Sanji yelled, "Is that perverted skeleton in there?!"

"Eh, Sanji-san, I'm here," Brook piped up, waving slightly, "In fact, we're all here... except for Zoro..."

Robin chuckled, "Oh my..."

"THE MARIMO?!" Sanji shouted.

"He got in. I don't know how he did, but he got in and started freaking out." Nami hissed between gritted teeth, "I want him out. I want him out right now..."

"I'm on it, Nami-swaan! I will save you from that perverted moss rat!" Sanji swooned.

Nami turned on him, "You better, and if you look down at my chest again, I'm going to start charging 500% interest."

Sanji averted his eyes, "Anything for you, Nami my love!"

Looking at the otter, Sanji had no idea what to make of it.

No idea.

Zoro wasn't acting perverted at all. Not a nosebleed in sight. Rather, he was flat on his back in a deep puddle and wriggling wildly as he slammed his tail into the water's surface repeatedly, making strange noises in succession.

Sanji frowned, "Oi, oi, shitface, get up..."

Zoro didn't listen.

"I said get up you shitty moss rat!"

Zoro cried out and smacked his tail down even harder, tipping his head back. It looked as though he were having a fit...

Wait.

Was Zoro fitting?

Sanji had never seen an animal have a fit before let alone seen an otter have one. For all he knew the marimo could be sick, really sick.

Zoro wailed out again and twisted and turned restlessly.

Shit. Shit shit shit.

He scrambled for the door, trying not to slip on the wet tiles, "Chopper! Chopper, I think he's fitting!"

"WAH!" Came the little doctor's frantic reply from above shocked gasps and murmurs of the others, "SOMEONE GET A DOCTOR!"

A mere moment later Chopper came crashing around the doorway and slid along the slick floor.

"Sanji, I-I need you to hold him still for me. He-" Chopper paused as he took in the otter's thrashing limbs and frustrated squeaks, "Oh. Oh... Sanji, he's not fitting. It's okay."

"Wh-what?!" The blond exclaimed, "Then what's he doing?"

"He's... He's trying to warn us!" Chopper said, "Otters strike their tails on water surfaces to alert the others to danger. Zoro! Zoro, you have to calm down! What's wrong?" The little doctor took a firm but gentle hold of Zoro's long body and stroked his free hoof down the otter's stomach firmly. To Sanji's surprise Zoro began to calm rather than tear Chopper's face off, but Zoro had always shown a softer side to the reindeer. Satisfied, Chopper asked him what was wrong again and Zoro responded in chirps and squeaks.

The doctor looked at Sanji seriously, "We have to tell the others that Marines are coming."
