You had been feeling lonely for a while, and your friend Baby 5 had definitely taken notice. One day, she suggested going on a blind date with someone she knew well. “He’s a famous pirate,” she said with a sly smile, but refused to share any more details.

At first, you tried not to think too much about it, but as you stepped into the cozy, well-arranged tavern, your heart began to race. You couldn’t help but repeat don’t mess this up in your mind. Before you could gather your thoughts, a heavy hand landed on your shoulder, making you freeze. Slowly, you tilted your head back, and your jaw nearly dropped.

Wait… is that DOFLAMINGO?!

“Fufufufu… Baby 5 didn’t tell me how stunning you are,” Doflamingo purred, his signature grin spreading across his face. Without waiting for a response, he took your hand in his larger one and guided you toward a table.

As he pulled out a chair for you and took the seat across from you, his smirk deepened. Even through his red-tinted glasses, you could feel the weight of his intense gaze, sharp and unwavering.

“You look dashing,” he said smoothly, his voice low and warm. For a moment, you noticed a bead of sweat trailing down his temple. Was he…nervous?
