Stars in the Sky

This is a collection of moments in time that are as numerous and precious as stars in the sky and glimpses into a character's mind. Drabble and oneshot fic. Straw Hat crew centric. Warnings: potential development of yoai/yuri pairings

Hi! Thanks for wanting to read this drabble/one shot fic. I wanted to try something new, and get my plot bunnies popping out of their burrows.

Summary: Luffy, Zoro, and Coby's thoughts of each other
Timeline: From Luffy meeting Coby to Zoro joining Luffy
Main character(s): Luffy, Zoro, Coby

First Meetings

Luffy didn't remember Coby informing him of the rumours regarding the pirate-hunting demon, the little girl, her sweetened onigiri, and her role in Zoro's capture. He didn't even remember the axe-wielding marine, his coward of a son, and the marines saluting to him.

What Luffy remembered was the certainty Zoro would be his swordsman, the joy he felt fighting alongside with him for the first time, the pride he felt when the pirate hunter called him Captain, and the confidence that everything would be alright now because he had Zoro.

Little Marine

Luffy, for one, didn't understand why Coby wanted to be a marine. Being a marine was boring. (And he really didn't want to be around his grandpa). Pirates had the freedom marines could only dream off.

However, just as Luffy knew he would be the Pirate King, the freest man in the world, he knew that pushover cry-baby Coby would become a fine marine. He didn't regret helping his small friend become a marine, even though it meant a potential future where they would fight to the death on different sides.

He would never regret helping a friend achieve their dreams.

No Regrets

There were numerous times when Zoro wondered why he even bothered to join such an idiotic happy-go-lucky man-child who followed crazy logics. Luffy was high maintenance. Anyone in the crew (and some people outside the crew) could account for that. And he doubted most pirates would have similar high-risk adventures they did.

Still, Zoro had once told Luffy that he lived his life with no regrets. And he had meant every word he said.

If Zoro had the chance to do everything all over again, the chance to stay as a pirate hunter or become a pirate, Zoro would change nothing (except maybe some of Luffy's more idiotic mishaps).

Luffy was his captain, and they were his nakama. Nothing would change that, not even death.

What do you think of my drabble/one shot fic? Please Read and Review. I would love to know how good and how bad my fics are. If you want to flame me, at least make it constructive criticism.

Disclaimer: Sadly enough, as much as I love One Piece, I don't own anything here but the drabbles/one shots themselves and the OCs (if there are any)
