You carelessly plated the ship, reinforcing it with a thin layer of metal, you growled occasionally when you noticed the gazes of those pirates on you, you expected to finish quickly but those bastards seemed to have destroyed the ship just to waste time. You wiped the sweat from your forehead, frowning when you saw how the sun was practically hidden, you refused to work anymore, so you gathered your things, of course you had to be stopped by the same guy who came looking for you.
"Hey precious, I don't see that our ship is fixed, there is a lot of work to do on the deck yet."
"Shut up, I'll be back tomorrow."
"You should lower your fumes, maybe you need me to show you some discipline, but knowing how you are sure that you even like to be punished, eh?"
You lowered your head, hiding a smile, you were going to be so happy when you finished helping, you did not deny anyone who asked for your help, but that did not prevent you from putting a small cost if they bothered you too much, this guy was winning all the ballots of eat your fists. You relaxed along the way, thinking about what to do for dinner, something simple would be fine, maybe fish, that sounded good. When you opened the door the grimace that you had throughout the day was now a smile, you greeted the boys, Law continued in his place as if he were a robot, Kid seemed to be too entertained making something with your tin and Luffy who had returned had a dead tiger on his shoulders.
"Hey, mystery girl, I'm hungry, I brought meat to eat!"
You wanted to scold him, but, fuck it, fish and tiger meat it will be, you didn't feel like getting more angry for the day. You got to work with the food, your stomach growled from time to time since you had not eaten, it was the first time in a long time that you ate as much as today, your mood had improved a lot due to the unusual calm between the three men who only grunted when fighting over meat.
"You seem much more animated, has something happened (y / n)-ya?"
"Yeah, no, just getting rid of those pirates was the best of the day, by the way, I think you're going to be stuck here for another two days."
"What?!"
Kid roared almost choking on the piece of meat he was eating, Law looked at you silently hoping it was a joke, the only happy one of the three seemed to be strawhat. You took a big gulp of your juice, wiping your mouth with your arm, you leaned back in the chair, stretching your muscles, talking before going to the bathroom to take a hot bath.
"Yeah, I'm fixing those bastards' ship and it will take a while."
"We ask you for help before."
You nodded taking a towel, some underwear, and your pajamas, which were more like a big nightgown and some old shorts. Simple but confortable.
"Yes, but as soon as I finish with the ship you will steal it, I am tired of being considered a fool just because they think they can take advantage of my weak point, I will try to have the log pose for when I finish with the repairs of the ship."
Your voice faded away when you entered the bathroom ─without letting them complain─, the only room where you could have privacy because it was the only door with a lock in the house, you enjoyed a good long shower, getting rid of all the grease and smell of dead that soaked into your skin.
Without noticing how Law's eyes were looking at you, you walked lazily to your work table, having a glass of coffee, it would be a long night. Most of you were drawing plans for your 'flying boat', you had everything you needed to do it but there was something in its structure that made it not be able to last so long in the sky, it was not very dynamic, it was not fuel problems but construction.
At a certain point in the morning you decided you needed a glass of water, too much coffee made your throat dry. When leaving the mountain of scrap metal you blinked a couple of times when you saw Law with one of your inventions, it was a flexible rod made of cables connected to a dwarf dial of light, its use was to read in the dark, certainly what he was doing.
"Law?" you got a hum in response "What are you doing awake at this hour?"
"Could I not ask the same?"
"I'm working but you are simply reading, in fact, you look like a robot, have you even moved from the damn chair?"
"I just can't sleep, I don't need you to worry about me, it's been like this for years."
"Okay tough guy, I'll assume you have hard sleep problems, on second thought... maybe I have something to fix that."
Ignoring the part that he did not need your help, you went to the kitchen, after drinking some water you rummaged through the drawers, finding the herbs you were looking for, you laughed silently taking a mortar to start grinding the medicinal leaves, it was a homemade recipe for numb the body, surely only that damn old man knew how to do it. Again fuzzy memories flooded your mind but you got rid of them quickly, boiling water to mix it up, continuing the process by tapping your hands on your thighs to keep you distracted.
