Workshop (Usopp x Reader)

A/N: Apologies in advance for the 'Speara-ton' :,)

You peek into the workshop, having followed the sound of drilling and hammering to the big space. After casting your eyes about the room, they land on Usopp, who is laser-focused on whatever it is he's working on. He sits cross-legged on the ground, tools and materials spread before him. So this is where he's been holed up all day, you think. You walk in as inconspicuously as possible, taking up a spot near the wall as you wait for him to notice you. Not long after, he looks up, and his eyes light up upon noticing you. "Y/N!" he exclaims. "When did you get here?"

You smile. "Only a minute or so ago. What are you working on?"

"Actually, I was just about to find you so I can show it to you!" He stands and starts walking towards you, and you meet him halfway across the room.

"Behold," he says, "the Speara-ton!" He brandishes what looks like a iron spear, with designs along the length of it. "Your new weapon! It comes as a spear, but it can turn into a variety of things! Here's the manual," he says, reaching into one of his many pockets and producing a small booklet. He hands both of them to you.

"So," he says. "What do you think?"

You blink at it, speechless. In previous fights, you had just fought with your hands and hoped for the best, not using weapons or a Devil Fruit like most of the rest of the crew. But now, Usopp is presenting you with something that might just make you able to hold your own, maybe not like Luffy or Sanji or Zoro, but at least able to fight without help to some extent.

"I..." you say, unsure of what, exactly, to say. All of a sudden, you embrace him, spear and all, taking care not to poke him. He stands still, shocked, but his hands come around you slowly. "I love it. Thank you, Usopp."

He blushes, and stutters a reply. "O-of course, Y/N."

You pull back and grin, his face still red. "I'm going to go practice using this. Thanks again, Usopp!"

"N-no worries!"

You laugh to yourself as you walk away. You could get used to making him blush.
