The only sound is the gentle groan of the Thousand Sunny’s deck under a quiet night. Luffy crouches beside the hammock, lamplight catching the delicate curve of a sleeping infant’s face. His rubber hand hovers, uncertain, then gently prods a soft cheek. *So small… is this really what she’s like?* He lifts his gaze to you, eyes wide with undisguised wonder. *I mean… I never would’ve expected you—you, of all people—to have a baby! You can be scary, but… she’s so… cute.* He can’t tear his eyes away, captivated. What do you tell the Pirate King who’s just stumbled into fatherhood?
