too late, but.... Zoro/Sanji - Mine
Jul. 25th, 2006 11:21 pmEDIT: Even though the judging took place between me opening up the posting page and actually posting. XD
Title: Mine
Rating: PG
Word Count: 300
Pairing: Zoro/Sanji
Topic: Territory
Notes: Even though I've decided my place in this fandom is more along the lines of encouraging the wonderful authors around me... I continue trying my hand at this "writing" thing periodically. Unfortunately my ideas refuse to move away from character introspection and include little to no actual interesting action... Oops?
Zoro was usually a standoffish type of person, not very physical or affectionate.
Of course, like any good rule, there were exceptions.
The first was, of course, his weapons. Calloused hands would often drop to the swords at his waist; not even in the threatening I'm-about-to-turn-into-your-worst-demoni
The other exception was Luffy. Zoro would of course snatch him out of the water any time the situation demanded it, but the swordsman would sometimes just pick him up. It usually involved throwing him to the other end of the ship… but not always out of irritation. When given a sufficiently manly opportunity he would even ruffle his captain’s hair, or pat him on the shoulder.
Admittedly his pats were much less friendly towards Sanji, but it was slowly becoming obvious that they were there. Obvious that there was no way Zoro was clumsy enough to accidentally brush against the cook so often. Obvious that every time a sparing session degenerated into a wrestling match it was because Zoro had set aside his swords and lunged first. Maybe even obvious that Zoro didn’t flip the strands of blond hair just because Sanji found it to be the most annoying thing under the sun… maybe. Having a weakness for soft golden hair wasn’t something many people would expect of the World’s Greatest Swordsman after all.
But it all came down to the fact that Zoro was a very tactile person when it came to things he considered his.
Sanji was joining the ranks, next to his swords and Luffy, as things Zoro liked to reassure himself were still there.
His swords.
His Captain.
His Cook.

As for joining the ranks... They are- *drumroll* Zoro’s Army of Things Strong And Persistant Enough to Make Their Way Past His Defenses! *lines up Luffy, his three katana’s and a very irritated Sanji and gives them army hats* Congradulations and welcome~!

a weakness for soft golden hair *wiggles happily* So sweet!
And hey, while we definitely appriciate your encouragement (I know there's been quite a few times when you've just said something that's totally made me feel 100% better about stuff in general), I agree with _paperpencil. Throw us a little bit of your writing more often, ne? Much love!

Date: 2006-07-26 06:24 pm (UTC)I'm glad you found it cute; the little hints that show they like each other under all the snark fascinate me. ^_^ I’ll work on writing more because I really do feel the need to give back to the community that has
eaten so much of my timegiven me so much joy. ^_^AND YOUR SILLY WORDS OF ASSURANCE AND CHEER DON'T MAKE ME HAPPY AT ALL! NOR DOES THE FACT THAT I'VE MADE YOU FEEL BETTER! AT ALL! ...*squees* XD

Date: 2006-07-26 08:35 pm (UTC)Plus it was almost Wednesday even where I am over on the Pacific and expecting you to take a submission that late into consideration isn’t very fair even if I had posted it a bit earlier. LJ people understand time zone troubles. You have to give the winner time to see the posting and pick a new topic hopefully before it's Thursday for everyone after all. ^_^
It's all good!

Date: 2006-07-26 08:46 pm (UTC)Oh! Oh! And that fic I've been working on, it seems to be going somewhere! I've finally worked out the start of the plot so they get from point A to point C in an understandable way. ^__^

Date: 2006-07-26 09:35 pm (UTC)And yeah, this group does pretty well with off-topic or late posts. We're all here for the OP Love Baby! We don't really care from whence it comes! (or at least I don't... and therefore I have faith that some others don't either) So if you're ever in that situation again... post away!
