Crocodile: *arguing with the navigator over the route and holding up the entire expedition*
Navigator: *trying to talk him out of making them take a dangerous route*
You: *watching from a safe distance* Is it just me or is he being... I wanna say stubborn stupid?
Mihawk: the word you're looking for is belligerent, and he is indeed being belligerent.
Buggy: even I think he's being foolish.
You: wow, and coming from you, that's really saying something.
Buggy: can it
Mihawk: it's not like any of us can talk him out of this, that man is stubborn as hell.
You: well, I might have a way to make him forget about what he wants.
Buggy: you seem hesitant.
You: I've never used this method, I've just heard about it.
Mihawk: If it gets us back out to sea, then I'm all for you giving it a try.
Buggy: I second that
You: Alright *stand with your back to Mihawk and Buggy, and you lift your shirt, exposing your chest to Crocodile*
Crocodile: *gawks at you, dropping his cigar*
Navigator: There is a big storm going that way. We need to follow the log pose needle that points toward another island!
Crocodile: *having a mental error 404* Sure, let's do that.
Navigator: *throws his hands up,* thank the gods, finally.
Crocodile: *scowls at the man, then up at you*
You: *drops your shirt and turns back to Buggy and Mihawk and grins*
Buggy: Wow, I'm surprised that was so effective.
You: I'm not
Mihawk: why's that?
You: Because men are easy.
Mihawk: That's not true.
Buggy: Yes it is.
Crocodile: *realizes something is up with you three and comes over* The fuck?
You: nothing
Buggy: this one flashed you to get you to stop being a stubborn ass.
Crocodile: *his neck cracks when he slowly turns his head towards you, his gaze wide-eyed, angry, and unblinking.*
You: snitch *Smacks the back of Buggy's head, and books it to your room*
Crocodile: *follows, turning into sand to bypass your door,* when will you learn that this isn't an effective tactic to evade punishment.
You: fuck.
Crocodile: *uses his large body to cage you against the wall.* Hehe, I must admit that I'm surprised at you. I never would have thought you would be so bold as to expose yourself in the open and in front of people. And it's also impressive that you would successfully trick me, a feat very few have achieved. *Uses the dull part of his hook to tilt your chin up to look at him*
You: So you're not mad?
Crocodile: No, I'm quite pleased...soft drags his hook down your neck and over your collarbone, before looping it around your neck and forcing your head back to look at him* ... But that doesn't erase the fact you undermined me, and ruined a perfectly good cigar. So you're still getting punished.
You: *wincing at the feeling of the tip of his hook digging into the tender underside of your jaw. And you struggle to keep your balance because he's lifted you to your tippy-toes.*
Crocodile: But don't worry, I'll be gentle.
