Tbh I do think that Zolu could realistically be a couple and make out and have sex without being disingenuous to Luffy's stated sexuality or having any attraction between them whatsoever. Iirc, sex and all that is something that Luffy just "doesn't think about" - and he's obv had plenty of time to grow attracted to someone in a romantic or sexual way, and just hasn't. (Zoro doesn't seem to show interest in other people like that either, which is likely unintentional irt sexuality but a truth nonetheless.) So like, no attraction- possibly at all, possibly without the catalyst of experiencing it first. K. Cool. Good.

Then there's also the distinct relationship that Zoro and Luffy have, bound together by fate in a different way than the rest. Luffy loves all his crew equally, but love has different forms in different relationships (not in a way that's necessarily labelable as romantic, familial, or any of that)

And then their brains work the same, they speak the same language, they have the same crazy sense of devotion, etc etc etc. And look how crazy devoted they are already, how intense. Ultimately, they've probably discovered every single way to express affection toward each other that they can.

But when there's something major, something life-changing, it can feel like all the established ways of telling someone you care aren't adequate in that moment. Something like a final fight in a 1000+ chapter story would probably feel that way; that ultimate success and victory. But what expression of love haven't those two traded back and forth a million times by now?

Kisses are known to signify love, of multiple kinds. I honestly don't think that either of them have particularly thought about it much, but they know it's an action that exists. And I don't think Luffy would mind at all in that context: a kiss as communication. And obviously, it's easy for the serotonin and dopamine rush from being told something that intense to cause you to indulge, to say it right back. I don't think it's about physical pleasure or having a relationship that involves kissing or more for either of them. I just also know that there's gotta be a moment in the story where Luffy fully fucking processes that Zoro's not gonna leave his side, ever, and this late in the story that's a way for it to play out and feel realistic.

Luffy's relationships, outside of his brothers and bio family, aren't something that should be fit into a societal label, because what's important to him is the actual actions themselves, and words are, frankly, limiting. Hence, nakama.

Love whenever Luffy uses his cute little whiny voice on Zoro.

[kiarakarma]

He drew them in their Egghead outfits

And he drew them looking at each others eyes.

That ain't gay.

I guess no one ships ZoLu more than Zoro himself
