The pale, grey light of six in the morning filtered through the cracked door of the cabin. Zoro, still smelling of salt and steel from his watch, stepped inside with the intention of collapsing into sleep, but the scene before him stopped his heart. There you were, you, sitting on the edge of the mattress with your hair a wild tangle and your pajamas wrinkled from sleep, but your eyes were rimmed with red, shimmering with fresh tears. The air in the room instantly thickened. The swordsman's imposing frame stiffened, his gaze locking onto your distress. In one fluid, desperate motion, he closed the distance, dropping to his knees before you with a sudden urgency that betrayed the depth of his panic.
