WHAT IF...? - One Piece Oneshots/Imagines [Requests open!]

📚~library life~📚

For other she seemed like an ordinary woman, but when you get to know her better she is more than that. She is a strong and lovely person. Her life was not always as normal as it is now, but she left the past behind. Her goal in life though, never changed, even after all that she went through - she wanted to know more about the history of mankind. The black haired woman did not wish for more than to know how everything and everyone found their place on the planet she is living on. And so she happened to study all day long since she was a child...

...Nico Robin is a librarian?... Nico Robin x Reader

(i'll try not to give the reader a gender because i wanna try that. its boring to always give the reader a gender and i think that's a little challenge for me! also this one shot is only from robin's pov!)

~ Monday, 8 a.m. ~

Robin was on her way to her working place which was almost her second home. She spend most of her time at the library even after her working hours. Books are everything for her, especially the ones that tell her every detail about what was long ago. Late after the last customer or the last student, that came to the library to study or to read the comics their parents don't want to buy left, she stayed - most of the time until the building closes it's doors. She was obsessed with books and no one could take that away from her.

When she entered the old looking construction, the smell of old books and paper hit her right in the face. That's one of the best things at a library. The second thing was the silence you had - not too many people come there, but enough to have to close it. Robin found it so peaceful to sit down where no one else was and just get right into a book. It never took her too long to finish one. Of course, she only could do that when she was on a working break or at the days where she don't need to go to work or when someone else was working her shift. Other women go shopping, go to parties with their best friends, not Robin, she was never really into these things. Buying clothes was easy for her because she does not really care what she wears as long as she is comfortable, opinions from others never reach her - she is fine with everything, she isn't picky at all.

The book and history loving woman is also not picky with people. She never thought of dating anyone. But if she would, then she would not ask or care about their origin, their past, their gender, their skin color or anything else. Everyone was fine for her as long as they are loyal to themself and to her. But sadly, she never found 'the one'. But out there would be a person that gets her out of her comfort zone - they would even make her look up from her books for at least splits of seconds. That's the impact that person has on her...

The small bell that was placed at the door of the library entrance rung when Robin entered the building. She was on her way to the lockers to put away her tiny backpack that she always brings along, filled with the few things that she might need over the day. After she put her things away, she went over to the part of the library where she would be starting to reorder the books on the shelves. It would take her a while but she never complained about it because she liked her work at her favorite place. She now stood in front of the big bookshelf and had to find a point where she would start at. Robin was a person who wanted everything to be in place, nothing can be messy or in the wrong position, no, not even can it be dirty, she would freak out inside. So maybe the sorting of books was really the right job for her. She started on the left side of the shelf, the categories what the books where sort by helped her put the books back in place. It was annoying when people just can't put the books back where they took them from. After she did that with all the books, she sorted them by color and height (pls i hope you know what i mean with that-). It took her about two hours but she, and as well as her boss, appreciated the effort she always puts in her work.

"Robin, you can take a rest now, you did enough already. Take a break and after your break is over, take over Camie's place at the information stand. If someone needs help to find something, you can help them for sure! I'm counting on you!", her boss said after Robin reordered most of the shelves the library has to offer. The tall woman bowed down and went to the take her well deserved break at the common room.
