Notes: This snuck out of me way too late. x_o Hope you like; I don't really know where I was going with it. You know.
The strain is getting to him. They've all noticed it before – the weary sag of his shoulders after another opponent is thrown to the dust; the tired breaths he takes in sleep, the pause between each too long to be healthy. Their captain is driving himself to the ground for his crew, giving his all and more than he has to give.
With this devotion comes loyalty: dreams are unfolding and being pushed aside in favor of nakama. Nami turned down a job drawing maps for the Marines, Sanji a position as head cook in an esteemed restaurant in West Blue, Chopper refused an offer to become a student of a famous doctor; Usopp wrote a tearful farewell to Kaya.
All have stayed, carrying the Going Merry and themselves through one more step towards One Piece – if that is still what they're searching for. They lean on each other, drawing comfort and support from the simple presence of loved ones. Camarado, confianza. Nakama. They cannot think of a more beautiful word.
