The more bizarre the challenge, the more fun it is. :D

Brook carefully adjusted the hat precariously balanced on his afro. He cleared his throat and picked his nose to confirm that there wasn't any snot hanging out (because that would just be ungentlemanly). After dusting off his suit, he approached the sunbathing figure lounging on a deck chair.

Nami immediately stiffened at the sound of dress shoes tapping across the deck. Her fists clenched and she tried not to sigh in annoyance.

"Good afternoon, Miss Nami. If it would be no trouble, may I see your panties?" Brook politely asked, bowing.

Nami sat upright and tore her sunglasses off. "I'M NOT WEARING PANTIES RIGHT NOW, YOU DUMBASS!" She immediately clapped a hand over her mouth when she realized her mistake (although it was technically true, since she was in her bikini).

"Yohohoho!" Brook got a nosebleed.

-X-

"A snack for you, my dears." Sanji twirled over and placed a platter of cookies and pastries before Nami and Robin.

"Thank you, Cook-san." Robin smiled. Nami managed a grimace of a smile and stuffed an eclair in her mouth. Sanji grinned and twirled back to the kitchen, singing a love song off-key.

"So who's bothering you this time?" Robin asked, picking up a magazine.

"Brook."

"I see."

Silence stretched between them for several minutes as Robin flipped pages and Nami chewed angrily on the pastry. There was a loud bang outside and the door crashed open. Brook flew in like a torpedo, propelled by whatever crazy thing he was doing with the boys outside.

"Yohoooo!" Brook shrieked as he skidded to a stop beneath the table. Nami jumped up but only succeeded in crashing her knees against the edge.

"Brook! What the hell!" Nami yelled. Brook looked up and found himself looking right up Nami's skirt.

"Orange, I see." Brook nodded.

"DAMMIT YOU PERVERT!" Nami kicked him in the face and he went flying out the door once more. She turned to Robin, fuming. "You! Why didn't you do anything about it?"

"I'm wearing jeans."

Nami's head dropped to the table and she sobbed in frustration. Robin lightly patted her back.

-X-

Nami carefully finished inking her map, gently blowing on it to dry the wet lines. She smiled in satisfaction and leaned back, admiring her work.

The door opened behind her.

"Hello Miss Nami."

Nami pinched the bridge of her nose. "Yes, Brook?"

"I would like to apologize for my atrocious behavior earlier this day."

"Oh." Nami turned around, slightly surprised. "Uh, okay."

"Yes." Brook was grinning (then again, he was always grinning). "Will you forgive me?"

"For a hundred thousand beri, maybe."

"Yohoho!" Brook laughed. "Unfortunately, I'm completely broke!"

"Of course you are." Nami sighed.

"So..." Brook twiddled his fingers. "May I see your panties?"

Nami stared at him.

Brook stared back expectantly.

Wordlessly, the navigator stood up and walked over to her bureau. She yanked open a drawer and began throwing panties at Brook.

"FINE! YOU WANT MY PANTIES? HERE!" Nami screamed, flinging one after the other at the very startled skeleton.

"Yoho!" Brook cried out as several panties became lodged in his eye sockets. "So many different colors!"

Nami moved to another drawer and began emptying the contents from that one as well. "WHY DON'T YOU HAVE ROBIN'S TOO? TAKE THEM, I DON'T CARE!"

"Lace! Oh, the lace!" Brook fell over, knocked over by the barrage of panties.

-X-

Brook entered the men's cabin, covered in panties of various hues. Sanji's jaw dropped and he fell out of bed.

"THE HELL?" Sanji roared.

"Yohoho..." Brook said dreamily.

"C-can I have some?" Sanji hesitantly asked after pulling himself together.

"Panties for everyone!"

-X-

Robin opened her drawer, puzzled. She checked the closet and her chest. "Navigator-san?"

"Yes, Robin?"

"Where are..." Robin caught Nami's expression. "Never mind. I don't want to know."

"Thought so."
