However, I know that there wasn't that much Robin and Luffy shippers out there, and this ship is really not popular, but please... I just hope for non LuRo shippers to maybe get to like this, since this episode will be Robin's.
Please Comment your thoughts about this!
"Oh, there you are!" Luffy smiled as he peeked his head into the library.
"Fufu~ Hi there, Luffy!" She was rather happy to be seeing him. Robin waved her hand as she saw the presence of the man.
She was sitting at the bench that was going all the way around the whole library, however she is not reading a book nor holding one, instead she was holding a cup of cofee in her other hand. She was excited about their secret meeting that she came in two hours earlier than the intended time. "Come take a sit."
Luffy walked in and sat beside her.
The archaeologist smiled satisfactorily. "It sure is a nice day isn't it?
Luffys simply answered "Yes"
"So, how is your day?" She glanced at him, shrinking her eyes. "It looks to me that it went well."
The guy answered, rubbing his head as he gave out his usual grin. "Shishi~ Although nothing much happened today I think it's good as long as I'm together with my friends."
Robin witnessed the scene of the Captain and the Navigator's episode, although she felt that she was intervening just by watching, then instead, she just moved away for her friend. However, she was still so bothered about it. In the end it was none of her business, Nami does what she wants, and so, she will do as she pleases too.
"Nothing much?... That's good." She just blurted out of nowhere, when hearing from Luffy even his interaction with Nami, as nothing much.
"I mean, too bad, it must have been boring." She sipped from her cofee.
Luffy just smiled.
Then she decided to ask, resting her chin over her shoulders as she turned her head towards him while her legs crossed. "Is there something you'd like to ask me specifically as you are here right now?"
Indeed he does, however, Luffy asked a rather different question than what she expected for him to ask regarding about marriage. "Well actually Robin, I was thinking what drives Sanji to be crazy for women? And why does it intensify even more when she sees one who's like, clothes are like, you know... what's the term again?" He thought difficultly. "Ah 'Revealing,' yes, that's right!" He finally said
Robin calmly assimilated the question, while finishing her cofee. "Why do you ask something regarding Sanji?"
Like a puppy, Luffy slouched. "Earlier, you see? Sanji said to me that not chasing after girls is not manly, and so I said to him that I too am a man, but I'm not chasing after girls unlike him, and I asked why, and he said that I'm not a man. To be honest, It really upset when I heard that. But it's okay, since Nami taught me about it, saying that It was not love and doing it like that was not the way into it."
"Fufu~ So that's why you've asked why does Sanji do that, huh?" She placed the empty cup at her side.
"Yeah.."
Robin thought for a way to explain to him, but honestly speaking, she was quite concerned as Nami was brought up. But she just ignored that. "Well, you see... average males would get attracted to a woman, especially if the woman has a typical aspect that would get men to be attracted to them for."
Luffy looked at her dumbly. "Ha?"
Robin only smiled, she expected this kind of reaction. "What I mean Luffy, is that healthy males would get attracted to attractive women."
"And how do you tell an attractive woman?"
She looked at him, expecting the man to say. 'Just kidding, of course I know how to tell an attractive person!'
However, he didn't and was genuine with his question.
She nearly facepalmed, but her captain seriously is too innocent, no, he's just straight up stupid.
How could he not have a clue what an attractive woman is?
However, this naivety of him only boosted Robin's persistence of giving him knowledge about this world. "... Luffy, when you look at me, what do you think?" She quite hesitated to ask him this.
Luffy titled his head "Uhm... Smart."
"No, give me more of your opinions about me, but instead of my internal capabilities, you give me your thoughts about my physical, uh...figure, suppose that it's our first time meeting and that I'm a stranger to you. Shat would your thoughts be, regarding about my looks, and what do you notice that's part of my body that stood out specially when looking at me?" Smiling ear to ear she said.
"Oh, that sounds fun, okay!" Luffy exclaimed.
"Well then, tell me honestly, and I'll wait." She sat uprightly, giving out a formal posture chested out and stomached in, lightly smiling and closing her eyes while she faces him.
Luffy placed his hand under his chin and looked at her intently. "Hmmm..."
"..."
The whole place is quiet and not even Luffy made a single noise and just kept staring at her. He looked at her from top to bottom, not averting his gaze off her, Robin suggested for this game like thing and so this surely is a way to teach him about something, he was convinced.
Robin was wearing a black tight long sleeve cropped tee that exposes half of her belly and a scoop neck that generously displays her cleavage. Matching with the same black mini tennis skirt.
Any man that would come exposed with this beauty close up would surely loose his mind. But that man is Luffy, therefore it's fine.
...
It's been a couple of minutes and not a noise was produced, this made Robin quite anxious.
She decided to open her eys slowly out of curiousity, and the first thing she saw was her captain's face still on that same position. But the way he's just looking at her was so different... it was so intense that it actually made her nervous. His face doesn't look that of the same old him, it's as if he's not even Luffy. He's starting at her with eyes so sharp, like a hawk ready do pounce it's prey.
Her pink soft and supple lips began to temble, and her face produced a rosy pink color as it began to heat up, she looked down to avoid his eyes, with a gaze so strong she could not bring herself to look at him in the eye. The mature woman turned into a girl that's helpless against a simple gaze, like a prey getting ready to be devoured, powerless against the presence of the hunter. He was giving an aura that does the exact effect in the archaeologist.
'It feel as if he's staring straight into my soul?'
She felt insecurity by being stared at, as if she's naked before the man.
She clutched her short skirt which was showcasing a massive view of her glistening thighs, lightly lowering it down it to hide some of her skin away from him, which was before she wasn't bothered. And she gently raised her hand to hide and cover her protuberant chest and exposed cleavage, slightly turning away her body from him.
Then Luffy finally spoke, his face before which was humorless turned back into a goofy old him after noticing Robin's guarded behavior. "Hm? What's wrong?" He turned his head sideward,
Robin made an excuse. "Um N-Nothing ...I was just feeling dizzy." She refused to look at him, naturally making an excuse.
"Is that so? Then I guess it's best for you to rest, then." Luffy thinks he realized that she was being forced to be with him, teaching him something she thinks that is bothersome. "You don't have to force yourself to talk to me, I'll go leave now and I will tell Chopper to do check up on you." Luffy smiled and stood up, about to leave.
"W-Wait! Don't leave! It's only a light headache, so it's fine." She reached out for his hand personally instead of a hand grown out of her devil fruit.
Luffy looked down upon her to ser her face. What he saw was her deep dark blue eyes only directed towards him. "Are you sure?" Somehow, he reminds her of a cat begging for a food outside in the rain.
She let go of his hand and smiled. "Yes, I'm sure I'm fine!" She has finally calmed down when Luffy was no longer staring intensely.
"Well, if you say so." He sat back.
"So about the game." He recalled.
She understood immediately. "Oh, that's right. So what do you think?" Robin wasn't expecting much out of Luffy, but she still wants to hear what he thinks of her.
"If you're a stranger and I were to be asked about your appearance..." He repeated.
"Well, when I looked at you, I first looked at your face, and that, I noticed that you have a good face, your face is smooth and it's clear that's all I could say." Luffy said casually without stuttering.
This statement took Robin by surprise. Now she discovered something new about him, he knows how to tell someone's appearance, yet he doesn't find that having a good face equals to being attractive. (This was according to Oda's SBS btw) But most of all, Luffy said her face is good, that's literally equivalent to saying she's pretty, it made Robin's heart skip a beat, hearing this from him. Robin always prided herself to be blessed with looks alone, she knew and she was confident she was pretty, she was called that by many people but hearing it coming out of her captain's mouth made her feel really warm inside.
"Uhm, Thanks." She shyly arranged her hair behind her ear.
Luffy added more. "And also, your hair, I noticed that it's shining and flows down along your back smoothly, it kinda reminded me of a river. It smells good too. Shishishishi~ "
This took her unexpectedly, "A river, huh?" She was always taking good care of her hair and made sure it was always properly maintained and conditioned.
"Yes! That's because I love rivers, but I love the ocean more. Shishishishi~"
She giggled by his cuteness. "Fufu~ I appreciate that. Are there any more?"
"Yes, I noticed too that your face was red, then-"
She shut her eyes. "Let's just skip that part."
"Oh, okay."
This time Luffy finally got to the main point. "Your chest, they are big." Saying in a blank face while his eyes were staring straight down into Robin's ample bosom.
There was silence for a moment.
She looked down towards where he's looking at, at her own chest. Robin sweat dropped, she wasn't even blushing nor getting embarassed, she could have felt different depending on the tone he's using or his deliverance but instead he said it blankly, now she felt that the atmosphere turned out weird.
"..."
Luffy unhesitatingly added. "Now that I come to think about it. Why are women's chest bigger than men?" Rolling his eyes upward and rubbing his chin giving out that confused face.
This time, Robin spoke, "Why?... Has this question not intruded your mind even a long time ago? You're now just curious about it?"
The Idiot nodded, "Yeah,"
After suppressing herself for doing so until earlier, Robin let out a drained sigh and finally, she facepalmed. "A girl's breast enlarges as she goes on through puberty, and enlargement of breast is essential for childbirth in the later on, Luffy." Robin explained it briefly, she don't want the conversation to shift into a talk about human organs.
'Thank goodness Nami is not here, he would have surely get her so pissed and she would definitely hit him on the spot.'
"But wait!" He almost yelled.
"Isn't it bothersome? Having those huge burdens might be heavy, I think it's difficult to move around and most of all to fight... I didn't think of that!" He raised his voice, having that idiotic face.
The atmosphere have now turned weird, even weirder than before. Although she did not let this get into to her.
She calmly answered him. "They are indeed big, although I don't think it's getting in my way."
Like a kid asking someone. "Eh? Are you sure?"
"Please, let's not talk about my...chest." She raised both her hands to cover up her bosom, forming an X shape as if she's ready to use her devil fruit powers.
The conversation felt awkward, boring and dry, if this goes on she would totally get this day wasted without teaching him a single thing.
During the start, Robin's main goal was to dig out her captain's sexual attraction towards the opposite sex by asking him about her appearance, but it's just too difficult to do, Robin figured out. With him being not raised in a proper environment and grew up in the mountains alone with his brothers and some mountain bandits, making him lack interest in women as he grew up with instead's main focus was to eat, train and survive.
With this, it will be difficult for him to feel the urge to propagate and find a wife.
'He just noticed my chest because they were standing out, yet he wasn't interested, I have to make him have interest in a woman's body. Think, Robin...' She encouraged herself.
One of the main factors with having a partner was to have the desire to bring forth an offspring through sex, how can one be engaged in relationships when they were not feeling special intimacy towards one another?
Robin decided upon something. 'I-I have to do this.' She thought
'If it's impossible for him to figure out, then I'll have to do it myself for his manly desires to awaken.'
Again, she began to be nervous with this idea, but unlike earlier, this will be different. Her heart started beating at a faster pace. And her lips were hesitant to open and say something to him, while her hands, trembling and began to sweat along with some parts of her body. She was hesitant,
Finally, she hardened herself.
Luffy looked at her, but he could feel something about her presence of how she looked at him through his observation haki that tells him something's off about her. "A-are you feeling dizzy again?" Unsure, he asked.
Robin stood up and looked at him with narrowed eyes and her face flushed in red as if she was drunk. "L-Luffy, you asked why Sanji feels and act weirdly towards women, right? Well, I figured you could never grasp the idea about it, so instead, I'll show it, so you could understand."
She raised her left leg and placed her knee on the couch to rotate her body and face him directly.
"What will you- ?"
Luffy was cut off as before he could even finish, Robin gently placed her hands on her captain's shoulders and nudged him down, forcing him to lay down on the couch.
He groaned as he got pushed down.
He opened his eyes and was about to ask why she just did that, however what he saw was the face of the raven haired beauty, with a visible red, as if she could be breathing and steams could come out of her mouth anytime soon. Her hair which he complimented to be like river had it's strands flowing down wildly on top of him like a shower filling up his sense of smell with the scent of flowers, with the type of shampoo she's using.
The scene was familiar, as to what happened together with Luffy and Nami.
With her hands placed on the neither side of his head to keep her in balance, the distance of their faces were too close together that their noses barely touch, her heavy ample bosom was laying down completely smooched on top if his chest that he could literally feel her heart beat going rampant. Luffy could directly feel the intense temperature that's being emitted from her body.
Robin's senses were filled with Luffy's presence, her sight was covered completely with his only, the feeling of her touch was filled of him underneath, his scent that fills up her nostrils with intoxication with the smell of his own unique scent, she wants to smell more of him that she's resisting the temptation to bury her face down on his neck.
Robin finally spoke, but she spoke stuttering "Uhm, L-Lufy, I only did this because... because I want you to bring out your desires, and for y-you to be attracted to women." She could not even explain to him clearly that even the prodigy of brains which could store informations even after reading hundredths of books was now overloaded with a million thoughts of him, alone.
Luffy atleast knew this wasn't a normal thing to do, yet Robin did it anyway. Luffy felt saddened to make Robin do things he knew was surely embarrassing for her, just for him.
Does this act alter Luffy's perception of romance?
Surely not. He still felt nothing even throughout this. But now he knew for sure that Robin, her friend is willing to resort through such extreme measures just to help him out. Overall, he felt gratitude out of this.
He reached out his hand to envelop her back, just beneath her shoulders and his left arm grasped her body, then pulling it even closer to him with quite a force. This took Robin by surprise, making her let out a small squeak.
That goes, with her face already grazing with his, followed by him pulling her even closer, it could definitely result in a scene where both a man and woman's lips come into contact, or in short, a kiss. Luffy didn't even care what outcome could it be when doing so. But thanks to Robin's fast reflexes, she was able to tilt her head sideways and avoid their lips touching together.
Heaven knows how she wants to just press her lips with his, already. But Robin herself takes a kiss as somewhat memorable for couples only to share, she has no right to claim his first kiss just for her own selfishness. (Robin has no idea what Reiju did -_-)
With the pulling energy, her face went down straight and instead got buried on the side for her captain's neck, just as what she wished for.
'Tha-That was close!'
Luffy finally spoke, with a big grin on his face whilst hugging his archaeologist. "I'm sorry Robin, I still don't have an idea. But still, thanks for your help! I'm so happy that you're willing to teach me even though I'm stupid, Shishi~..."
Luffy did not notice that steam was already smoking out of the woman's head while buried on his neck.
The Strawhat followed. "I guess it's really difficult to understand Sanji and how to discern an attractive woman after all. I'm just curious, because, why is he doing it, and why I'm not? hahaha... But Nami also told me that love isn't all about outer appearance, but it is through accepting who that person is... That is love. I found that like that idea more."
Luffy felt a light huff out of Robin's mouth upon mention about Nami.
Then she spoke in a flat voice. "Luffy, you can now let go of me."
He gently retracted his the force within his arms and let go of his grasp.
In a blink of an eye, Robin, who was on top of Luffy, in a flash was already up and sitting on the couch composedly as if nothing even happened.
Luffy got up and lookied at her with a smiling face. Confirming how pure and innocent his thoughts are.
The woman spoke in an abrupt pace while eyes closed "That's it for today, It's time for dinner now."
"It's at that time already? Yayy!...Alright, food!" He yelled in delight, and jumped up.
He waited for her to stand up so that they could go together.
She noticed how he stood still, and she knew immediately that he's waiting for her, "You may go without me," She said "I'm not hungry so I guess I'll skip dinner and stay here to read some books to soothe my boredom."
This statement made Luffy frown. "Eh? Are you sure? Skipping a meal isn't good, you shouldn't!"
"It's fine... I'm fine."
She said with a smile.
Luffy took her answer as it is and finally conceded. "Well, if you say so." He smiled. "But if you ever get hungry just ask for Sanji to cook for you. Shi shi... Well then,"
Robin followed him with her eyes as he hurriedly ran to the exit.
She sat still for a couple of seconds and then she looked down to herself, bowing her head. Her face grew so red that her head was smoking just like earlier. She covered her face with her hands, then she spoke to herself in a tone of regret, muffled with her hands on the way. "What have I done!? Why did I do that? That going too far, that was so embarassing! Robin...you stupid!" She scolded herself.
She then fell sideways, letting her body fall, weakly on the couch, still with a face that is covered.
She muffled, "There is no way I'd be able to face him again." The scene kept replaying on her head, making her even more and more embarassed.
Then she replayed a certain response of Luffy.
-But Nami also told me that love isn't all about outer appearance, but it is through accepting who that person is... That is love. I like that more
She got up and sat again, and this time that response made her bothered,
-Nami told me...
-I like that idea more...
She kept replaying those statements in her head.
This made her awfully invidious at how Luffy always thinks about Nami.
She bit her lip achingly and clutched her skirt tightly. She muttered looking dejected. "Nami again..."
