Enough power to sustain a place like this, and kidnap people?

[ She doesn't want to think about being under the thumb of something that powerful. ]

Another guy I was talking to was telling me about these things in his world - certain people can make pockets in space and time and put things there, and you can only get in or out of those places with a special thing, or method, or something. It reminds me of here.

[ and as if called out to through the void, a message suddenly appears on nami's watch. ]

nami! ♥
i'd never want to bother you if it's late
but i noticed it was pretty cold tonight and wondered if you needed any help in getting warmed up? ;)

Edited 2024-02-04 16:29 (UTC)

( The thought that the ones running this place could be that powerful is definitely something to consider, though Luffy's mind runs through it a little more differently. The bigger they are, the harder they fall in the end!

A notification catches Luffy's attention and he instinctively peers over at Nami's device. )

Wow, did he know we were talking about him?

[ And she doesn't swat at Luffy for peeking, considering it's Sanji and not something a little more private - like naked pictures from a hot lady or something. ]

Guess so. [ She smirks, already typing out a response. ] I'll tell him to come join us since he's cold.

[ Pausing to snap a picture of her and Luffy, Nami attaches it to her response: ]

It's pretty warm down here, you should come join us if you're cold♥

[ sanji's not expecting to get a picture of nami with someone else, and if it were someone else, he might feel the weight of his heart sink unbearably deep. or at least if it were another man, since his imagination picturing nami curled up with another woman would have him feeling ... a certain kind of hot.

but it's not just any man in that picture, and the sight of luffy there instead coaxes a slowly widening smile from sanji as he sees his two favorite people in one place. ]

i'll be there ♥

[ which he is, soon enough, since he's practically memorized the quick route to nami's room the moment he learned its location. waiting for the click that signals the open door from nami's watch, he lets himself in, dressed in pajama pants and a simple white t-shirt (as opposed to being shirtless as he had been in bed since no, he wasn't actually cold at all), stepping further inside before catching sight of the two on the bed and breaking into a grin. ]

I heard Nami found a warm stray in her bed tonight. Did I hear that right?

( There's no complaints from Luffy over inviting Sanji to join them; the more the merrier and he's sure Nami's bed can accommodate them all. If not it's all the more excuse to cuddle and Luffy takes a moment to sneak some of the chocolate before Sanji arrives, blatant in his attempt to do so.

Luffy grins at Sanji like it's the first time seeing the guy, he's always happy to see the blond and not just for the best food either. Sanji has proven to be the most amazing member of the Going Merry crew in a short time and the captain is already unwrapping his arms from Nami to shuffle over and make some space for the other. )

A stray? ( Nami gets a look full of curiosity. ) Someone else was here?

( Is he serious? Who knows, it's a mystery. )

No strays, just an idiot.

[ Rolling her eyes good-naturedly at Luffy's questions, Nami unwraps her leg from around his middle and scoots back, giving Sanji enough room between the two of them to climb in. ]

I really need to get a bigger room if you two are going to make a habit of coming over in the middle of the night.

[ She props herself up on an elbow, resting her chin on her hand as she grins at Sanji, tilting her head at him in a brief 'come on already' gesture, privately eager to try and hold onto the both of them. ]

Our favorite idiot.

[ truly a sign of endearment, since it's that very idiot that got sanji out of baratie, pledging his loyalty to his new captain more easily than he'd done anything else in his life.

sanji watches them scoot away from one another to make that central room for him — something that nearly makes his heart skip, for the way it carries a sort of welcoming that sanji often longs for, something that had convinced him to give the whole of himself to this crew. his smile is warm as he steps over to the end of the bed before climbing to crawl his way in, spinning around to lay his back onto the mattress, squeezing himself between them. ]

My bed is open to both of you too, you know. Bit more room there.

I should tell them you're talking about 'em.

( His nose wrinkles as he grins, obviously teasing (this time).

Luffy is delighted that Sanji doesn't even protest the offer, watching idly as the blond makes his way up the bed to settle between them. He can't even begin to imagine a world where he ever regrets asking Sanji to join the crew. Not only had the chef joined and settled in, but had instantly assisted in dealing with things at Arlong Park, no questions asked. Brave, handsome and the best cook. Luffy doesn't need to be told how lucky he is to have crossed paths with Sanji and he can't keep the smile from his face as he rolls to his side, taking no time in draping an arm across the other.

Personal space? With Monkey D Luffy? It doesn't exist. )

Mine is small but folds out. ( He pauses. ) How much more room?

[ Once Sanji's more settled Nami reaches for his arm, wrapping it around her shoulders before settling in against his side, her leg stretching out to wrap around them both. ]

Sounds like we'll have to do this again another night in your bed then, Sanji.

[ There's a part of Nami that's always a little anxious wondering about the wellbeing of her crew in this crazy casino, but having Sanji and Luffy here where she can reach out and touch them both works wonders for soothing those worries, making a habit out of this suits her perfectly.

Resting her head against the pillow Nami's arm stretches past Sanji's head, her fingertips lightly tousling through Luffy's curls. ] And you don't clean your room enough for that. [ (Affectionate.) ]

A bit more room than this, but I don't think we're having too much of a problem in making the most of it, anyway.

[ it's truly a moment of being spoiled, the way he first has luffy settling up against his side before nami mirrors the same, both draping over his body with arms and legs. though his initial excuse had been feeling a chill that hadn't actually existed, he can't deny the actual warmth he does end up getting out of this, feeling heat radiating from both their bodies, much more satisfying than if he had stayed in his bed alone.

his arm moves around nami's shoulders as instructed, soon following with doing the same to luffy, securing them both close against him, almost protectively. ]

As convenient as that sounds, Luffy, you're going to want a bed with more room. Whether it's for this or — you know, other activities. [ hmm. maybe something more luffy-appropriate. ] Pillow fights.

( Everything is warm and comfortable, physically and more as Luffy realises just how safe things feel right now. They've been kidnapped, uprooted from the Going Merry and dropped in a resort that had a list of demands and the last few weeks have been eventful if anything. For now it could all be a million miles away with how it feels, cuddled up against Sanji's side, Nami's fingers at his hair enough to pull a small snort of laughter from him. They're both perfect in every way and Luffy can barely keep the adoration from his gaze. )

My room is okay! What do I need lots of space for? ( The mention of pillow fights gets a serious look. )

Sanji. Everyone knows you have the pillow fight in someone else's room. ( Still, despite how comfortable it all is, Luffy is loathe to fall asleep anytime soon and instead allowing himself to feel the motion of Sanji's chest as the other breathes. All this place needs is the gentle sway of the ocean under them for it to be perfection. )

Did you eat all the chocolate, Nami?

[ Nudging Sanji's side gently when he brings up pillow fights, Nami tips her chin up, brushing her lips against the cook's jaw as she mutters– ]

Don't give him ideas, dummy.

[ Her tone is low enough to be intimate and warm, without making any effort to ensure Luffy doesn't hear her, going so far as to lower her head to narrow her eyes at the captain across Sanji's chest playfully to make sure he did. ]

Like I'm the one who would eat all the chocolate. [ Lifting the bar in question with her free hand Nami breaks off a piece, holding it up for Sanji to eat. ] I almost lost a finger trying to stop him from finishing it before you got here, actually.

[ sanji laughs with the nudge, quieting into a fond smile when he feels the brush of nami's lips, naturally feeling the quickened beat of his heart from feeling it, because it's nami. ]

I'm not. [ he is. ] Technically, sure, you can do things in other people's rooms, but every once in a while you want a comfortable and open space that's clean and presentable and large enough where you can invite a girl over for a nice meal, some romantic music, and — [ wait, he's getting off track. ] Never mind. Luffy, don't hit girls with pillows.

[ he's completely forgotten the subject here, but it can hardly be blamed when he's got nami (and luffy) snuggling into him so closely like this. plus, there's that chocolate being offered to him, and with his arms occupied, he leans in to snag the piece straight off of nami's fingers with his mouth. if he playfully licks at her fingers in the process, well. ]

And don't bite Nami's perfect fingers. If you want more chocolate, I'll just make you some.

Edited 2024-02-04 20:18 (UTC)

I don't need anyone to give me ideas, I'm already planning a pillow war with someone.

( It's said so matter of fact, as if a pillow fight is a completely normal thing to do and Luffy almost looks proud of it. As for the hitting girls comment, he simply lets it slide as something Sanji would say, knowing full well that if he had to hit Nami with a pillow and refused on those grounds, he'd lose the fight very quickly.

Brown eyes watch with keen interest as Sanji eats the offered chocolate. The way the blond licks at Nami's fingers has Luffy's own pulse skipping a beat, enough that he almost misses what Sanji even says. His reaction is delayed only by a few seconds as he lifts his head up, eyebrows raising quickly. )

You can make chocolate here??? ( Once again Luffy counts his blessings, feeling the luck of having found Baratie in the fog. At this rate he'll thank the navy for chasing them into it and Luffy soon settles back, down, resting his head against Sanji's collarbone . )

[ Of course, Luffy's planning a pillow war - she just hopes he doesn't have a death wish and isn't plotting against her.

Too content to warn Luffy off the idea - because she's sure he knows he'd lose - she stays quiet, basking in their back-and-forth banter and the warmth of their bodies. This feels safer and better than anything has since she landed in that stupid jungle, and she's selfish enough to start thinking ahead, hoping she can get more times like this out of the two of them.

Exhaling a chuckle against Sanji's skin at the fleeting brush of his tongue against her fingertips, Nami settles her head on his shoulder, breaking off another piece of chocolate for herself before letting her arm slide across Sanji's chest to offer one to Luffy. ]

You heard Sanji - watch the perfect fingers.

Is this a one-on-one fight or should we prepare for a crew battle?

[ because as much as he enjoys teasing luffy, or trying to ease his captain down, he wouldn't hesitate to join him in any fight if he had to, even if it's a pillow one. though he'd probably have some words to say if luffy went smacking a woman around with one.

the chocolate in his mouth is sweet, and with that brief bite, his brain already goes working towards trying to piece together the ingredients and recipe that went into it, just to see if he could replicate it — he absolutely could.

he licks at his lips, not intentionally making a show of it, but it's inevitable that the swipe of his tongue leaves behind a light sheen against them. his eyes follow nami's fingers to feed luffy next, not thinking too deeply about how they watch luffy's mouth in the process, his own hand on the other boy absentmindedly twirling against the curls of his hair as his opposite hand traces lazy strokes on nami's shoulder. ]

I told you before, I could make anything you want. Even if I have to raid the kitchens or break into the Mosshead's room to do it.

I'll let you know when the preparations are done.

( Most likely the pillow war will amass to nothing, but the offer from Sanji is appreciated all the same and Luffy can't help the small smile as he peers up at the blond, shifting to tangle one of his legs with Sanji's own. The way the other licks his lips is alluring enough to have Luffy immediately looking away, catching Nami's gaze with his own and hoping she can't read him like a book too easily. )

I am watching your fingers, I can see them right now offering me chocolate. ( Luffy's smirk widens as he tilts his head to snag the chocolate, nowhere near as graceful as Sanji had been. It's difficult to focus too hard with a hand at his hair and the pirate captain idly traces his own across Sanji's stomach. Nami and Sanji make eating chocolate look like the most sensual thing in the world and Luffy can't help but give a small contented hum, unware of the tiny smear of chocolate at the side of his mouth. )

Ingredients are easy, the guys in the kitchens sometimes let me mop the floors now if they catch me.

[ Of course, she could reach over and wipe the chocolate off Luffy's face while calling him an idiot again, but that touch of restlessness stirred to life by having them cuddled up in bed with her, and fanned further into existence by the familiar flick of Sanji's tongue on her skin, make the easy route seem very boring.

Nami stays close to the cook's body, her hand resting low on his abdomen as she leans across his chest, bringing her mouth close enough to Luffy's to let her tongue slip out, brushing over the sweet spot of chocolate at the corner of his lips. Pulling back after stealing a brief kiss, she shoots a sideways glance at Sanji, cheeks flushing when she turns her head to press her lips against his as well. ]

We'll get you a kitchen, don't worry.

[ She teases fondly before propping her head up with her hand, smirking warmly at them both, feeling unexpectedly fortunate to have this much connection in her life after spending so many years with the world at a safe distance. ]

[ sanji's eyes do easily spot the hint of chocolate in the corner of luffy's mouth and when he feels the shift of nami's body, he does expect her to wipe it down with some kind of playful comment tacked on. but when she doesn't use her hand, exchanging it instead for her mouth, all sanji can see is the slow slide of her tongue against luffy's skin, catching against his lips. whatever subtle heat that had simmered ever so gently through his body from the close contact of their bodies, it burns hotter now, enough that he can feel it stir between his legs just from watching that simple kiss.

he even earns one of his own, still as sweet and perfect as if it were the first time all over again that nami kisses him, and he closes his eyes for it, no matter how brief, to delight in the touch. ]

I think I can cook up plenty right here actually.

[ when he slides his arm off of nami's shoulders, it's so he can reach down for her hand again, the same one that had previously held chocolate, the same that he had licked so playfully before, and he gently leads it back up to his mouth to do so again. only this time, without any chocolate to take a bite of, he wraps his lips directly around two of her fingers, finding the remnants of that sweetness to suck, tongue brushing over her fingertips again and again to collect every bit remaining, cleaning it off of her skin.

sliding his mouth off, leaving her fingers damp from his tongue, he turns to look at luffy, using nami's fingers in his own to nudge his chin to tilt his head upwards as sanji leans down to press their lips together, offering his captain that lingering taste of chocolate from his mouth. ]

( The kiss from Nami is unexpected and delectable, a brief and potent reminder of previous times they had both crossed paths in the resort. It's enough to have Luffy's cheeks burning ever so slightly when Nami pulls away and he watches with lazy interest as Sanji gets a kiss for his troubles too. Just like that Luffy can feel warmth headed south at the sight and for the first time he can understand why someone would say there were those who liked to watch; he could watch Nami and Sanji all day and never get frustrated or bored....

Such a realisation is only reinforced all the more as Sanji lifts Nami's fingers to his mouth, Luffy unable to tear his gaze away for love nor money, and why would he? Two of the most beautiful people in his world are having a heated moment and it's only when Sanji turns to him that Luffy understands that he gets to be part of it too. There's no hesitation in pressing his own lips back against Sanji's, the taste of chocolate sweet and sugary as the pirate captain slowly runs his tongue along them. If this is what happens when he brings a bar of chocolate he'll have to remember to bring two next time and he can't help but reach across the blond's stomach to lightly trail his fingers along Nami's arm. )

[ Sanji slips her fingers past his lips, and the sensation of his tongue lathing over them, sucking the last of the chocolate's lingering sweetness from her skin is more than enough to send a rush of want through her body, the vivid rush of memories of all the times the cook's left her reeling from the incredible things he can do with his mouth. Her breath catches, shifting against his side as she squirms against the ache slowly blooming to life between her thighs, keenly aware it's a feeling she won't be evading soon as her hand's guided to Luffy's face, aiding Sanji's effort to tip the captain's chin up enough to allow for a kiss.

It's a sight she takes in as greedily as she would any lifted and loaded wallet, or a pile of coins after cheating through a hand of cards, and Nami takes advantage of their being distracted to grin openly. Turning her head to stamp light kisses up the side of Sanji's throat, the brush of Luffy's fingers on her arm finds Nami reaching for him as well, the hand Sanji guided to the captain's face slipping free of the cook's hold so that she can run it through the captain's hair instead. ]

[ it's a bit impulsive, and though his original intentions in coming over tonight did consist of a lot of kissing and using his mouth for multiple purposes, his plans had only involved nami when he sent over that message. learning that luffy had been here too hadn't been a disappointment, but he also assumed things would halt with simply laying in bed together.

though he hadn't anticipated learning the taste of luffy's mouth tonight, sanji can't find any regret in the attempt of finding out, not when luffy returns the act with equally eager intent. the sweetness of chocolate is only barely still painted on their lips anymore, and when sanji feels the graze of a tongue, his own expertly slides past the seam of his captain's mouth to seek out heat more than sweetness, to feel a slickness in the kiss that abandons all innocence for something more daring and lewd in the more audible slide of his lips.

a small moan even slips from him when he feels the peppering of nami's lips to his throat, a sensation that has him leaning back to welcome more of her mouth, hand pressing on luffy's cheek to keep their mouths together before withdrawing his hand to wrap it around nami again, this time venturing lower as it dips beneath her shirt to slide against her bare back, pressing his palm firm to hoist her further onto his thigh. ]

( Even for one as spontaneous as Luffy he can't say he'd planned for things to get so heated. His own plan had gone no further than bothering Nami by text to talk about what could be a clue, so to wind up sharing a bed with both Nami and Sanji, with the latter's mouth upon him is a sultry and welcome turn of events.

Lips part to allow Sanji to deepen the kiss, Luffy briefly managing to keep it to an almost lazy pace before he teases the chef's tongue with his own, hungrily relishing every second he's being gifted. No, there had been no plans for this but now that it's happening Luffy is all for it and the hand that isn't at Nami's arm sneaks up to lightly touch fingers to Sanji's cheek.

There's no way he can hide how his body is starting to react, his own arousal evident in how flushed his skin is as he breaks the kiss to only catch his breath. The small noise from Sanji had gone straight to his cock and the sensation of something new and exciting begins to take hold and if any notion of innocence lingered in Sanji's mind it'll be hard pressed to remain as Luffy grins before giving the blond's lower lip a brief nip. Nami doesn't escape his notice either as his hand shifts to run lightly up the back of her thigh, Luffy unable to refrain from touching the redhead even now. )

[ Having them both here where she knows they're safe would have been more than enough for Nami, but the warmth that's sprung up between them has felt too easy to lean into, to bother trying to resist or reason away. This place has gotten her closer to both of them individually than she ever planned, and the selfish part of her delights in watching Sanji and Luffy kiss, enjoying the way her greedy gamble continues to pay off, leaving her able to be close to them together too.

Both her thighs press against either side of Sanji's as his hand lands at the small of her back, and he moves her further onto him, the heat of her body behind the fabric of her panties pressed flush to him, relishing in how strong he feels between her legs. The combined sensation of Luffy's hand on her thigh and the cook's against her back is enough to make her thoughts run together, lending an almost drunken bent to the grin she conceals between kisses planted low on Sanji's collarbone. Relinquishing as little space as she can, Nami slips her hands free from where they've settled in Luffy's hair and Sanji's stomach, reaching down to pull her shirt off instead, the thought that this might be too far never crossing her mind. It's them. She hasn't been cared for like the two of them care for her in a long time - she couldn't be any safer testing the limits of something than she is with them.

Taking advantage of the way her new position wrapped around Sanji's thigh puts her closer to Luffy, she leans into him, wrapping one arm around Sanji's shoulders, her fingers running through his hair as her mouth finds the captain's neck, nipping at his skin gently before kissing her way to his shoulder, her hand settling on his hip and squeezing affectionately. ]
