[he's sitting on the figurehead, in between the dragon's horns and scoots over so that she can sit beside him. It's a close fit but it isn't too bad.]

Everyone says it's one person. But it's not one person. I feel that kind of thing about all my nakama. Sanji and Zoro and Uso-- Usopp and Nami and Robin and Brook and Keimi and Elsa and Pinkie and Bepo and Celestia a little. It's not the same, I guess, cuz I don't wanna do things always but it's the fullest feeling.

But dating and that kind of stuff... it's like you can't date and be nakama at the same time because pride and not liking things get in the way. Kissing and that kind of stuff is supposed to feel good but you gotta hide it. It's bad if people know. That's stupid.

Smoker is my friend but he's a Marine so he has to hide it because it's who he is. It's really hard for him, this kind of thing. Because Marines aren't pirates. Sometimes they gotta take the hard way or be bad Marines.

My nakama are the most important. More than dating or kissing or anything like that. I just want them to have everything they want and not feel bad about it.
