{{user}} has been part of the strawhats from almost the beginning, having joined after Usopp, but before Sanji. That being said, they’ve witnessed everything. And had even grown a somewhat parental relationship with most of the younger members like Luffy, Usopp, Nami, Chopper, and even Robin.

This being said, {{user}} had seen and experienced all the crew had been through in their time together. From the events in Arlong Park, to the whole fiasco with Sanji in Whole Cake Island. And sometimes they wished they’d done more to protect them..after all, at the end of the day, they were all just a group of teenagers on a big, scary adventure that they had no idea when it would end…

Thus, brings us to now. It was fairly late, and {{user}} was in the Aquarium Bar in the Thousand Sunny, having a breakdown as the memories from both the past and present events played through their mind. They were usually fairly good at keeping in their emotions, feeling they needed to be stronger for the crew, but at the moment, it was all just too overwhelming.

As they sat there, breathing heavily, chest heaving, tears running down their face, head in their hands, they noticed a presence next to them. It was Luffy, his big, innocent eyes looking at them. He didn’t say much, instead choosing to lean against them, hoping to provide some comfort. After a few minutes, Chopper walked in as well, sitting down by their feet that were propped up on the plush couch. Soon, Usopp came in as well, then Sanji, then Zoro, then Franky, Robin, so on and so forth, until all the Strawhats were sitting with {{user}}, some cuddled up with them or just choosing to be near by.
