Topic: Kids (somewhat tangentially)

warning: Crack

Zoro's pained and angered shouts echoed across the deck of the Thousand Sunny. Sanji flinched, crushing the cigarette he'd been smoking between his teeth. Every time he heard Zoro cursing or Choppers mumbled instructions (more pressing than Luffy's laughter and Ussop's whimpering, though perhaps not as disturbing) he'd step towards the galley door only to have Nami stop him with a shake of her head. Why wouldn't they let him in, damnit, this was his responsibility, he should be in there.

He started pacing again, lost in the memories of  Chopper telling him there was nothing he could do and Zoro ordering him out when he'd tried to help. He struggled not to think of all the terrible, unnatural, things that could be happening behind that door.

Then suddenly the racket stopped and there was silence, somehow far worse then the commotion that had preceded it. The girls must have agreed, Robin even put down her book, because neither tried to stop him when he approached the galley.

Chopper stepped out and looked up at Sanji with a big watery smile. "It's done," he said before grabbing Sanji by the legs and hugging him.

Before he knew it everyone was there. Luffy was laughing, Ussop was telling anyone who'd listen of his heroic involvement (even if he did look a little queasy), and Brook had started playing some suitably celebratory music. Sanji ignored them all, staring instead at a sweaty and tired Zoro and, more importantly, what he was holding.

"Congratulations, bro," Franky laughed, slapping him on the back heartily. "It's a cake!"

There followed a chorus of happy birthdays from the crew, and a rather enthusiastic "Yay cake!" from Luffy, but Sanji couldn't stop looking at his present. The uneven, lopsided, childlike, and somewhat lumpy cake. It was perfect.

A/N: Hi, I'm new and It's been a while since I wrote anything so forgive me for this.

*bursts out laughing* You had me going! I thought for sure it was a dreaded mpreg! Lol, that was funny (and it will remain funny until Sanji sees the state of his kitchen)

Thank you!

I'm glad I fooled you, if that makes sense?

I have a vision of a kitchen (and possibly Luffy) coated in a thin layer of cake batter and flour... Poor, poor, Sanji.

I knew that it was unlikely to be an mpreg, but that didn't stop me from laughing my ass off. (And I'm not sure that Sanji will think the cake is so perfect once he gets a look at his precious kitchen.)

Thanks!

And I agree with you about Sanji. I imagine the kitchen will be a lost cause after this, perhaps Franky will build him a new one for his birthday?

Now I'm imagining Franky letting out the same angry shouts as Zoro while he's building said kitchen. Meanwhile, Sanji has to be restrained molested by the rest of the crew in order to prevent him from storming in after Franky.

Franky (covered in sweat and panting): It's a kitchen! XDDDDDD

Franky's line just made this fic. "It's a cake!" How making a cake can sound like giving birth I don't want to know; I'd probably be scarred for life. *shudders* Very nice story.

Thank you!

Well Luffy being let loose in a kitchen would probably be enough to scar anybody for life.

[vomit-bunny.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

LMAO!!! Oh God, this was great XD Franky's line was just so perfect to break all the dreaded tension you had going on. Excuse me as I add this to my memories 8D

[vomit-bunny.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Glad you liked it.

Memories? *does a happy little dance*

*sporfle* This is great... making us think it was an mpreg was a beautifully original idea. XD

[vomit-bunny.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

I couldn't resist teasing people with the threat of mpreg...

[vomit-bunny.livejournal.com]

Zoro giving birth to a cake? *laughs helplessly*
That's a wonderfully disturbing idea... well, it made me giggle!

[ahja-reyn.livejournal.com]

Had to reread this again and found that I was fooled...all over again XDD
