his first message makes the very corner of her lips quirk up into the ghost of a mirthless smirk, as though her mouth hasn't decided if she's annoyed by the remark or not. they both know it's not the case, and, deep down, they both know why he'd give her the brush-off.
but she's proud of the way she's turned that room into something, and the quiet familiarity they fall into when nobody's paying enough attention to throw a wall up or say something stupid to ruin it is a big part of what keeps her anchored. ]
She can heal, and I can drive. [ it's a generous amount of detail, coming from her, they both know it, and, ideally, they both understand why she would divulge any of it. ]
I'll be back late tomorrow. You better not finish the beers.
[ it was very few words, and also, more than enough. enough to know that if shit went side ways, nami had someone there who could watch her back and keep her breathing. that she had the out of her vehicle, and the phone in the case she needed backup. unlike zoro, she actually charged hers.
she's proven herself more than self-sufficient, and zoro wasn't her keeper. that the bed felt oddly empty without her sharing it, missing the slight dip in the mattress that reminded him of her presence - it was a normal concern to have about a crewmate. understandable, in the wake of everything.
he wasn't sure why he was even thinking about it. ]
And I want one that's already cold waiting for me.
[ she would feel better if she was going somewhere closer, but she trusts all of them to make it back alive, and would be offended if she suspected any one of them didn't put the same faith in her. ]
