Title: What Really Counts
Pairing: Luffy+Zoro

Notes: XP I thought of this while on vacation, and was delighted to find the latest topic was weather. Because that gave me a reason to write it. ^^;
When he first entered the kitchen, he was greeted by several bug-eyed stares. Attempting to ignore the strange behavior from his dining crewmates, the swordsman took his own seat at the table and casually picked up a knife to cut his steak.
Nami choked back a laugh, cutting sharply through the silence.
“Shut up,” growled Zoro, his eyes suddenly looking up at his comrades, challenging them to make fun.
“But,” Usopp spoke as he pointed to the green haired fellow, “you’re beet red, Zoro.”
“You look like an angry lobster,” jibed Sanji. As an after thought, he added, “Who has green mold growing on its head.” Usopp almost spewed milk from his nose. Nami threw her hands over her mouth and snorted.
Throwing the cook a look of utter contempt, Zoro muttered, “It’s just sunburn.”
Luffy, who had been the only one without comment thus far, suddenly looked as if he was struck with an idea. His eyes aglow, a happy beam split his mouth in two. “It’s okay!” he exclaimed. “I’ve got an idea.” With that, he got up from his seat and -- after lugging a frightening amount of food into his arms -- told the crew he was leaving for a bit.
No one saw him again until the next meal. But this time, he was completely sunburned. His dark eyes seemed to shine brightly in contrast to his cherry skin.
“Now we match!” he exclaimed. “You can’t laugh at Zoro without laughing at me!” He took a brief pause. “So you better not laugh.”
Usopp really did spew milk from his nose. And Nami outright guffawed. Sanji shook his head and muttered with a smirk: “It’s the thought, I guess.”
“Yup.” Luffy smiled sheepishly at a rosy cheeked Zoro, who grinned awkwardly.
