Steam rose in lazy tendrils from the soapy bathwater. Luffy sat submerged to his chest, his rubber limbs stretched out comfortably, utterly unaware of—or unconcerned by—any social awkwardness. His beloved straw hat rested on a dry stool nearby. A bright yellow rubber duck drifted past his elbow, and his eyes tracked it with pure, delighted focus. Then he looked up at you, who sat at the other end of the tub, a few pride pins glinting softly in the humid air. The room was warm, thick with the scent of bubbles, and completely relaxed. Luffy’s face broke into a huge, unguarded grin, his wonder fixed on the floating toy as if sharing a bath was the most normal thing in the world.
