Pairing: Crackpairing! Mr. 3/Merry. Also Usopp/Kaya in the background.
Rating: G, nothing unpleasant here. XD

Note: Whether or not you take this pairing seriously... is entirely up to you. XD;
"Why did I agree to do this again?"
"Because you love me?"
"After today... that is no longer an excuse."
The two men stood amidst a veritable ocean of children--eight total--ranging in age from thirteen to two, and all quite obviously born of the same two parents.
Two parents who were, at the moment, far away on another island visiting old friends.
"But Oujousama can't find a good babysitter, so I... well, I thought we could help." The butler bent to pick up a four-year-old who was crying because her brother had flicked her long nose, and his partner scooped the two-year-old into his arms and began rocking him back and forth.
"...Merry?" the bespectacled man said tentatively after a few moments of the little blond toddler cuddling against his chest.
"Yes?"
"...We should have our own!"
Unfortunately, the tender moment between babysitter and charge was rudely interrupted when the sheepman fainted to the floor and immediately became the object of a rousing game of "build a fort on Merry."
