Actually, you're right. Pink is your color so that's also polarizing. Blue is good. Yes! Like a cute sky blue. Blue and silver. Blue lilies and baby's breath. It's perfect.
No, I don't think he was. He was pretty clear. Hey you don't know how to become a princess, do you?
Of course I want it. Who doesn't want it? Settling down and having a nice big family is all I think about. It's all I want. I can't wait to be married so I can get to work.
He's never clear. Also if he said he didn't want to marry you, something's wrong. Maybe he hit his head somewhere. I think marrying a prince. Or being adopted by a king? Something like that?
Did YOU hit your head too? You've never mentioned that. Ever.
Not well enough to ask them to adopt you. There are some queens, too? That might count? Why does being a princess matter?
Are those the rules? I thought if you were a girl you were a bridesmaid no matter what, I didn't realize people had custody?
You didn't answer my question.
[A nudge, then, belated, Koby's presence against the shape of Nami's mind, her energy, feeling for something -- wrong, amiss, strange. It's not reliable, not always, but he knows how she should feel, so used to the soft sunset-glow of her aura always right there, right alongside the rest of the crew.
Sanji wants a princess. More, Sanji needs a princess.
Those are the rules! I have dibs!!
I didn't hit my head. Who hit their head? I'm fine. Better than fine. I'm perfect.
( her aura is, notably, different. not so much the rich sunset of vibrant colors that koby is used to, but a dulled aura, almost entirely devoid of color. like everything nami used to have dialed up to ten is now at a respectable number — say, zero, for instance. )
[Koby's about to argue further, but the dullness in Nami's aura is like a slap to the face -- wrong, wrong, muted and stifled and not her, and it has him going silent for a moment. Something from the house, something she ate or drank or walked under or -- something.
He wants to tell someone. He wants to tell Luffy, but. But.
So instead:] Well, I'll see what I can do about making you a princess, if that's what you want.
And okay, you have dibs. Deal. When did you start thinking about all this? Marriage, I mean? Did something spark it?

Kind of. Actually
not really.
Sanji said no and Zoro said he doesn't think about it. And now you don't want to?
( she's going to die alone...................... )

Zoro.
And you don't ACTUALLY want to MARRY ME. You've never talked about getting married, before. I didn't know that was even something you wanted?
