Summary
Romance is everywhere on the Grand Line, but it doesn’t look the same to everyone. Zoro has never questioned what he and Sanji are to each other. A conversation meant as teasing opens a quiet fault line between meaning and intention. Love, it turns out, has been spoken clearly - just in a different language.

Summary
He stood there like he’d been hollowed, and Zoro felt tightness in his chest as recognition settled in – not pity or anger, but the stark understanding of what it meant to still be breathing because someone else decided you would.

Summary
Zoro, being the most patient of the non-Devil Fruit users, typically wrangles Luffy for baths, or showers if they're in a rush.
As the others talk and laugh, Zoro and Luffy sit off to the side. Zoro carefully scoops handfuls of the warm water over Luffy's hair to rinse the suds out.
"Mmmm, Zoro's okay with helping me?" Luffy suddenly mumbles, head lolling.
Zoro pauses, and gently readjusts his position so that his captain can rest his head against his shoulder. "Yes," he says. "You're my captain. I'll always help you."
They sit in silence for a moment.
"Why?" Zoro asks.
A weak shrug nearly sends Luffy sliding off the bench before Zoro scoops an arm around his waist to pull him back. "I dunno," hums Luffy, but there's tension in his shoulders as he rubs at his chest.

Summary
Rope has been a staple in their dynamic since the moment they met. The bonds that tie, the threads that bind, the straps that tether two hearts together without romantic cause, reason, or rhyme... But... Zoro wonders, can they stay bound by friendship alone? Or will it become a bondage they must sever and snap to save their relationship, separating two souls—a captain and his first mate—sown together by the sword knot of destiny, fate, and agape love?
or
it was all fun and games, just to let the time at sea pass with ease and levity. and zoro knows luffy loves him. but not in >>that<< way. right...? ugh, zoro's not smart enough for all this overthinking.
or
luffy convinces zoro to cross a boundary neither even knew zoro had, which unleashes a new BDSM kink in the swordsman, and he unravels from it all.

Sanji frowns. “Of course you don’t understand the importance of a grand romance.”
“Yeah and I don’t want to, it’s a total waste of time.”
“So you never want to be in a relationship ever?”If it isn’t you, no.

Summary
“Don’t get ahead of yourself,” Sanji said coldly. “I have no obligation to go to this tea party whatsoever. First of all, I’m already married. Secondly, Luffy’s the man who will become the Pirate King, and no ridiculous plot to scoop up the Straw Hats is going to prevent that.”
Everyone froze.
“You’re already married?!” Chopper shouted.

Summary
Zoro understood the thing he had about Sanji’s knees… well, no. Not really. But it was a long-time obsession that only appeared when Sanji wore shorts, which wasn’t often. But now, with the wrists? What was wrong with him? He’d never looked at anyone like this, like maybe he liked what he saw.

Summary
The feeling in Zoro’s chest felt different when he and Luffy finally reunited on Sabaody - lighter like he could properly breathe again, and heavier at the same time, from not knowing what to do about it. There wasn’t time for fancy words but there was laughter and chaos ensuing all around them as usual, then they were running and escaping.
-
Or: Post Timeskip/Return to Sabaody look on Zoro's confusing feelings and Luffy having the support of his first mate back after everything he went through.

Summary
He was suffocating in his own loneliness and the feelings that came with caring for the people around him, his new crew, his family, knowing they could say their goodbyes sometime in the future and leave.
He wanted to run away and hide for a few hours, but it was always that damned luck of his that the person he wanted to see the least was the first one to reach him.
Or: Luffy is having trouble thinking clearly after a letter to Zoro surprises him, spiraling into one of his worse moods. Zoro is there to dispel any discomforts. They talk about what future holds for them and the love they built between each other.

Summary
What did love mean to him?
He could understand loyalty and complete devotion to his crew. But romantic love? It was something he never felt. Still, there was the way he felt about Luffy that was different from what the rest of the crew meant to him, he knew that much with absolute certainty.--
Zoro is a bit lost again. This time in his head, and trying to untangle the feelings he has for his captain and what it means for them. -

Summary
He smiled when a kiss was softly pressed to his forehead, the lips warm and smooth, lingering there for few moments before withdrawing again.
Zoro felt like he received some sort of a blessing. Luffy was still holding his hand, smiling down at him, and Zoro knew his world was just aligned to a new true north.OR: Little bit of missing scenes during episode 6 when Zoro was healing and after he woke up, leading up to his vow to Luffy, and what they actually mean to each other.

Summary
Sanji never expected Zoro to be someone who got bothered by the cold. It wasn't something that fit the swordsman, especially given that the swordsman had apparently jumped into a freezing river on Drum Island without even a shirt on for "training." It seemed weird that something like a little chilly weather would get Zoro to climb into Sanji's hammock.
Or:
Sanji runs hot and Zoro is inexplicably drawn to it.

Summary
Why feel shame for scars when skin was merely skin? What mattered in the end weren’t the perceived blemishes and imperfections, but the heart that housed an individual's dreams and courage, and pumped blood through the body to ensure its survival so that one day that heart could experience true peace.
