This Isn't A Race, Natsu 😒

Allison: wow, five, you’re quite profound.

Five: I am, as the kids say, awake.

Allison: …do you mean…woke?

Five: yes, but that’s not grammatically correct.

One of rare moments where Luffy is seated is when Zoro goes to him and hug his waist, press his face to Luffy's chest and nap there. Zoro started to do this after their reunion. Whenever they got separated and didn't see each other for a while, Zoro would do this when the whole crew came together on their ship, their home. To feel Luffy and know there isn't a thousand miles of ocean between them. (Luffy realized he never did it when they were together and others were far away from them, where they couldn't know if they were safe or not. Zoro would only do it when everyone is on his sight, on ship, that's when he would allow himself to relax enough to do that) Those are the rare times Luffy doesn't move for a few hours. Just like now. He was laying down on the floor of the ship with Zoro on top of him, his hand on Zoro's head, patting it while Zoro's face was pressed to his chest and sleeping soundly. Luffy likes those moments so much. Zoro isn't shying away and doesn't see it as a weakness and comes to him on his own accord.

He looked down when Zoro sighed. He giggled, Zoro would always give some type of reaction when Luffy's hands touched his ears and Luffy was having fun with every different reaction he could get from him. So like little shit he is, his hand stayed close to Zoro's ears and started to stroke the tip of his ears. It got red as always, very quickly too. Zoro grunted and made a satisfied sigh when Luffy stroked the ear between his fingers. Zoro pinched Luffy's sides to make him stop but he could see Zoro's smile so rubber user stretched his head out and kissed the corner of his lips and lay back down with a giggle. Luffy didn't mind staying still like this.

+Bonus: sometimes other strawhats would join them too. Franky would sit by Luffy's side so his thigh would touch Zoro's biceps, Brook would play a song by their side while Robin would read something with her soothing voice. Nami would use Zoro's back as a pillow and Usopp would be playing with Zoro's hair alongside Luffy. Sanji would lean over whatever would be close and their shoes would be touching while Chopper is between Zoro's arm and Luffy's chest. Jimbei would sit beside Robin and watch them with a smile.

Oh mah gawd!!!! I just realized thus after reading this whole thing........ U READ IT WITH LUIS' VOICE AND MANNERISM, LIKE WIIH HIS HANDS AND PAUSES!!!!!!

Infinity War told by Luis [insp.]

Luther: the odds of this working are astronomically slim.

Five: I would even say infinitesimally

Klaus: and I would say ternie weenie

Klaus: i hope that when the human race goes extinct, the aliens see all of our “Jesus is coming” signs and assume that he ate us.

Ben: what is wrong with you?

Funnily enough, when they first meet past the edges of the Sol system, the aliens like the humans.

None of the humans were prepared for this.

The humans prepared for decades- for centuries! to contact life out in the black, and be judged harshly for their past.

The aliens, almost to the one, seemed delighted with humanity and everything they entailed. Good, bad, and ugly.

“You see, we heard you calling out for long, long, long… we could not find where you called out from. Now we have! You called for so long, and now we meet you! It is good to know you! We have tried so hard to find you and say, Hello!”

The messages Earth sent out, just in case there was anyone out there to hear, to extend reassurance that they simply were not alone was received always with delight. And they sparked a soft race to find the origin of such a kind and curious signal into the vastness of the universe.

I know the animation industry has been going through a serious rough patch in the past 10 years. I just hope the medium and the artists making it can get the respect they deserve someday soon. So I wanna take a moment to spread a reminder of the powerful emotional scenes we've gotten from animation in the past 10 years.

Happy Pride!!

based on this:

I have this nalu headcanon that Natsu just boasts about dating Lucy but nobody ever mentions or returns his gloating about it back to Lucy. The reasons for this is because everybody assumes it’s Lucy who’s giving him the benefit of doubt. Since, when does Natsu ever have an occurring thought in his head that’s not influenced? Or given by Lucy?

Natsu: Thinks they’re dating, but hadn’t said anything to Lucy in return; therefore she thinks they’re still good friends.

Lucy: Freaking out because she still thinks Natsu is just a crush and he doesn’t reciprocate the feelings and only being friendly and well, Natsu.

= Oblivious to the other’s thoughts and feelings.

My two cents.
