It had started when Usopp found Luffy sitting on the deck deep in thought. He'd sat down beside him and asked.

"What's up?"

"Thinking," he replied.

And so an hour passed in silence. Then Nami came.

"Luffy..."

"Shh, I'm thinking."

Perplexed, she leaned against the tree and waited. Another half-hour passed before Franky came.

"Oi, Strawhat..."

"Quiet! I'm trying to remember something."

Hours passed, each marked with the appearance of yet another confused crew member trying to discern what their captain was up to now. When finally Brook approached, Luffy jumped up with a shout.

"We haven't! I can't believe it!"

Everyone exchanged looks, wondering if perhaps this cryptic statement made more sense to someone else.

"We haven't what?" Chopper asked.

Turning to his friends, and mentally counting them off, Luffy smiled.

"Great! You're all here!"

And before anyone could ask what he was talking about or even prepare themselves for it, Luffy stretched out his arms to encompass them all in a giant hug.

Snuggling his face against Usopp's chest, his strawhat smashing against Zoro's cheek and his armpit pressing into Brook's bony spine; Luffy finally clarified.

"We've never had a group hug before! I thought back on all our adventures and we haven't done it before."

Robin summoned up a spare hand to pat Luffy on the head since she couldn't reach him from where she was smooshed between Nami and Brook.

"This is very nice."

"Yeah!" Usopp murmured from his position somewhere in the middle of the hug. "Very warm!"

Franky was sobbing into Zoro's shoulder. "You guys are all so super!"

Sanji chuckled at Zoro rolling his eyes. "Oh come on, this is rather nice."

"Group hugs are wonderful!" Chopper called out from near their knees.

"Yo-ho-ho! What a pleasant feeling this gives me!"

"Brook, get your hand off my butt!" Nami yelled.

Laughing and grinning, Luffy issued his order.

"By captain's decree, the Strawhat Pirates will now have daily group hugs!"





Title: Shall we dance?
Fandom: One Piece
Genre: General/Romance
Rating: PG
Characters/Pairing:Franky/Robin, Chopper
Prompt: onepiece_300, Dance
Word Count: 300


Franky was beginning to curse the day he'd decided entering the local island's dance competition was a super idea. Now, a day before, he was nothing but sore, miserable and hating Salsa dancing vehemently.

Robin had been telling him about the history of the dance as she used spare hands to direct his movement.

"It originated in South Blue," she said. "It's a dance meant to echo the deep passions between two lovers."

Franky resisted the urge to laugh at that, because having her lead him around with over fifty hands wasn't exactly romantic. And now, they were running out of time and he was still horrid at the blasted routine.

Chopper, who had been watching the two practice on the deck, suddenly started up from where he sat.

"Ah Franky! I have something that can make you dance perfect!"

Robin and Franky paused in their awkward choreography and exchanged a look as Chopper ran off.

"Any idea what he's up to?"

"No idea."

Moments later, the doctor returned holding a bottle that was clearly from the kitchen and not his infirmary.

"Franky, drink this!"

He caught the bottle as it sailed through the air into his outstretched hand; the label on it reading 'Extremely Spicy Salsa.'

"Super!" Franky exclaimed as he chugged down the contents.

His face went bright red, his ears started smoking and his hair slicked itself back. Turning suavely to Robin and yanking her flush against his torso, he murmured seductively.

"Tu amor me inspira, tu ternura me conmueve y tus besos me enloquecen. ¿Bailamos?"

Her momentary shock abating, Robin smirked and entwined her hand with his. "Sí."

Franky Salsa-ed perfectly, elaborately, and Robin had to admit when he kissed her, it definitely was passionate.

Breathing heavily at the end of the routine, Robin called out to Chopper.

"Please tell Sanji to make more Salsa. I think we're going to need it."

Translations for the Spanish:
Tu amor me inspira, tu ternura me conmueve y tus besos me enloquecen: Your love inspires me, your tenderness touches me, and your kisses drive me crazy.

¿Bailamos?: Shall we dance?
