#''skitty no one is reading all this'' good. don't perceive me

Sinking deeper into one piece hell so while I do that let me praise the live action for a second! The way Luffy has a different way of being affectionate with each of his crew members is so perfect for all of them

There's a million posts about how his hands are all over Zoro but it's perfect for the guy who doesn't want to talk about feelings or like. think too hard about problems. His solution is to physical force his way through everything so it's on brand for him to respond to a physical touch as a love language

and then Nami who I really wanted to make this post about!!! The way Luffy keeps sliding into frame to join what she's doing, sticking his head right next to hers so he can see things from her perspective--it's super cute first of all, but also just a nice visual reminder that he's like. We've got this, I'm with you

I've only rewatched as far as Usopp joining them and there's one specific moment of them grabbing onto each other and then side-eyeing in a kind of comedic relief way, but the awkward silliness of it seems to match Usopp and his wacky stories and even if Luffy's rolling his eyes he still checks afterwards to make sure Usopp isn't hurt or offended

Haven't rewatched Sanji's episodes yet so nothing about him yet but something something arguing with Zeff is a twisted way of expressing affection for him and making this about zosan is off topic but. crumbs. whatever

In conclusion I think they're neat
