onepieceyaoi100Title: A Cute Little Christmas Story
Rating: G
Pairing: Luffy/Usopp, Zoro/Chopper, Nami/Sanji
Word Count: 342 (I cut as much as I could...)
It was Luffy's idea. And anyone who knew Luffy well knew that he always got his way, one way or the other. So the crew ended up in matching pajamas on Christmas Eve. They were red and green plaid, and no one would have minded if not for the antlers he'd included. After some grumbling (mostly from Zoro), they'd given in, and celebrated in the matching pajamas.
Outfits aside, it was a typical Straw Hat party; Luffy ate himself into a bloated ball, Zoro drank too much, Usopp told outlandish tales, Chopper played around, Sanji served them -- though he gave more attention to Nami, of course -- and Nami tried to keep things from getting TOO out of hand. And there were presents. Chopper got the most, since it was both Christmas and his birthday.
It was late when the party wound down. The mixture of food, drink, and excitement had taken their toll. Zoro was sitting against a wall in the kitchen, with Chopper curled in his lap. They were nearly asleep, but weren't there yet, evidenced by Zoro gently scratching the little reindeer between the antlers, and Chopper's small noises of contentment.
The captain WAS asleep, however, curled next to the tree; slightly drooling, and clutching the blanket Zoro gave him.
The only ones fully awake were Usopp and Nami. Usopp was quietly strumming his guitar and singing a Christmas lullaby. Nami listened, her head on Sanji's lap. He slept against the wall, his hand resting on Nami's shoulder.
Usopp finished the song, plucking out the last notes. Nami smiled. "That was lovely, Usopp."
"Thanks." He yawned, looking around at his sleeping crewmates. "We should get some sleep."
"Yeah... we get to clean up tomorrow..."
"Oh, you HAD to mention that..." Usopp scowled and put his guitar away. Then he crawled to where his captain slept. Carefully, he draped Luffy's blanket over both of them, snuggling behind him.
Smiling, Nami pulled her own blanket up, settling again onto Sanji's lap. "Good night, Usopp."
"'Night, Nami. Merry Christmas."
"Merry Christmas."

Date: 2004-12-16 05:32 pm (UTC)The idea of Zoro snuggling Chopper while wearing plaid pajamas and antlers IS TOO DAMN CUTE. YOU HAVE BROKEN MY MIND AND I LOVE IT.

Date: 2004-12-16 05:40 pm (UTC)Awww... thanks, Goji! ^_^
The snuggling and head scratching was actually the idea that I built the story off of... ^_^ I had some other ideas before that (I had a friend who came up with the idea of matching pjs, though not x-Mas ones in particular), but the snuggling actually prompted me to write it. I kinda wish I'd made it a bit more prominent, but I had a lot of ideas, and even trimming I ended up with a "long" story...
Ummm... 'k. ^_^

Date: 2004-12-16 05:51 pm (UTC)Hee, Zoro and Chopper could be a matching set. *squees like a little schoolgirl. which is hard to do, since I have a deep bass voice. and am male. though I am in school. this starred text is getting too analytical.*
...I am messed up in the head. BUT NOW I NEED TO WRITE THAT FIC.

Oooh... ok! That could be really cute... ^_^

Date: 2004-12-16 08:12 pm (UTC)It's just - aww. Perfect? The mood and the moment you capture, it's so beautiful, and so cute, and it's THEM, and I love it. LOVE IT! Very, very much. I was going to say I love Zoro cuddling the reindeer best (because there really are no words to properly express how adorable that is), but - Usopp and Luffy! And Nami and Sanji, and ALL of them, and it's... wow. Perfect.
Happy, happy! ^____^

Usopp? He's the one who gets stuck wit all the odd jobs... ^_^
(blush) Thanks...
Cool. ^_^
Oh, good. That, as I've mentioned, is the main thing that prompted me to write this story, so I'm glad it worked. ^_^
Yeah, this being a happy, fluffy fic, I thought it was kinda important that they all have a snuggle buddy. ^_^
Thanks, naye! I'm glad you liked it so much. ^_^

Date: 2004-12-16 09:41 pm (UTC)She's not in the crew yet... ^_^
Thanks!
She put her head there before he fell asleep. That's why his hand is on her shoulder; he put it there as he was falling aleep. ^_^

Date: 2004-12-16 10:19 pm (UTC)I really, really hope someone might be inspired to draw this (and Luffy's pjs need to have feet in them). The idea of the crew in matching pajamas is to adorable.
Congratulations on having the winning story this week!

Date: 2004-12-16 11:13 pm (UTC)Wow, I... uhh...
(blush)
Indeed! Please?
And don't forget the antlers!
Oh, and a visual thing--Luffy is sleeping facing the tree (which is why Usopp snuggled up behind him). The positioning of the others is up to the artist, aside from the basic info in the story (for example, I said Zoro is leaning against a wall in the kitchen; which wall is up to you).
Yes! Awwww...
That's the idea. ^_^
Thanks, Sherri!

Date: 2004-12-16 11:45 pm (UTC)Don't pajamas with feet in them usually also have a flap on the rear end? For...um...easy access (or something).
no subject
Date: 2004-12-17 12:15 am (UTC)I think they only do if it's a one piece (heh), i.e., the shirt and pants part are all one thing. I imagine these as two piece shirt-and-pants pajamas.
