Uh. This is Zoro.
Yeah.
[BEEP]
Yeah.
[BEEP]
It was with your guidance I am now at peace.
[Really she wouldn't mind if he drifted off to sleep too, since she was fine with that kind of company. Instead she watches as he touches the water.
That was also a very interesting way to look at things. She's involved in worldly affairs all the time back home, that getting even a moment to oneself was also a treasure.]
You are saying that to me. [She laughs softly.] But I understand it. If they want us back in one piece, then just let us have some time for ourselves.

That's right. [100% tease] I'm your guru. Really, though, it's hard to look out for other people when you're at the end of your own rope. Can't protect anyone if you're too tired or injured or whatever.
[says the man who stayed up for three days straight and then fought CP9, I mean geeze Zoro]

I should call you Master from now on, no? [She might rolling along with it, but if he jokes that she should, she would.] It is. We do not think straight when we are tired or stressed. I feel like after this I would be able to take on anything! Including protect you. [Half joking, because she would do it.
WOW ZORO, THIS IS WHY SHE WOULD PROTECT HIM, GOD.]
WOW ZORO, THIS IS WHY SHE WOULD PROTECT HIM, GOD.]
[another light laugh] Nah, I don't think I fit into a title that big. Not yet. [not until he's the strongest...] Protect me, huh? From what, the shrimp-fish? Better make sure it doesn't jump out of the bucket and try to slap me with its tail.
[Zoro, your sword priorities....] Ah, not until you are the best, no? [But she guesses!] I will definitely protect you from the shrimp-fish. It's tiny size is to lure us into a false sense of security, and attack us while we least expect it. So I'll slap it before it walks over and slaps you!
But not now, it's well behaved.

[he only smiles, because yeah, she got it]
Good, good. That's a good fish. Shrimp-fish.
[he does not even care that nothing else is biting at his bait. Maybe you do have to take the game's fish off the hook before anything else will go for it? Meh, who cares. He's doing what he wants to do when he fishes - lounge around in the sunshine and not think too hard.]

[She laughs since it's like Shrimp-fish is their pet! Too bad it's only for the time they have here in the game.]
With this kind of love, I am sure Shrimp-fish will stay good too.
[She was thinking about suggesting a name, but getting attached to a virtual fish might actually be a little sad. Either way, there's another tug on her line.]
Ah? [She gets up to reel it in, except it wasn't even a fish.]
...A lunch box?

[excuse you Shrimp-fish is the best name already.
Ooh, what'd you ca....oh.]
And just when I thought it couldn't get any weirder. Open it up, maybe there's something cool inside.

[Shrimp-fish!! Clearly she needs to find a real shrimp-fish for it to be their pet.
But really, this is their weirdest catch of the day.]
Alright! Ah, lets see...[She opens it up, but just like game logic has it, it has way more stuff than it actually holds. It's like a picnic in here!]
All kinds of random food. Sandwiches, snacks, some drink as well! It must be a boost pack.

Huh. [he sits up and leans forward to have a look for himself.] Can you eat it?
[if he knew the first thing about video games he would have to wonder why one would need a health boost in the middle of a fishing vacation and then probably look for a save point before the boss shows up but...nope, this is not Zoro's area of expertise.]

[Exactly! Considering all these games are whacko with their bosses, but since she'll make sure they'll lose before they'll need to go fight a boss. All will be well! Hopefully.
She starts pulling out some of the food: here have a whole roast chicken as she takes a bite of the sandwich.
Unlike health or status boosts in video games that just happens, it looks like they actually have to eat these like normal people.] It looks like you can! It doesn't taste at all bad either.

Whoa...nice. [don't mind if he do!
I mean it's no taste sensation like all those home-cooked meals, but it'll do. Zoro is quite content to sprawl back out with a couple of drumsticks and gnaw on them]
See, now it's perfect. Picnic lunch makes any fishing trip better.

What a surprise! The game itself has a very clever way of implementing food. We got lucky!
[And in perfect condition too! That strange lunch box was watertight. Looks like his theory about treasure chests wasn't even off.]
I am glad this day turned out perfect! Now I can experience it as you like it, no? [Give her a minute, she places down a sandwich to open up the drinks. Sure modern beer and probably nothing special since it's game booze. She reaches over to offer him a bottle.]

[DOESN'T MATTER GETS BOOZE]
What color bait did you use to get that? Try it again, maybe you can get even better stuff.
[he's pretty sure he's not going to catch anything with this herring, so after he enjoys a few sips of beer, Zoro reels his in again and tosses the herring back in so he can re-bait the hook. What did he use last time, green? Trying that again, since it got him an actual fish.]

[She's so curious on if it has the same effects too. Then again Zoro is 2stronk when it comes to booze. ZORO!!]
I used yellow! Perhaps it is because it is an unusual colour. [Not exactly live bait colour. She picks the exact same bait she used and hooks it, before tossing the hook back into the water.]
There. And so begins another round, [For the both of them too!] let's see if we're lucky! [She picks up her bottle and holds it up, she's still too shy to make it look like a big toast, shhh.]

To luck, then.

[...He's actually not sure how to respond to that. Part of him instantly wants to punch some shitty capslock back at him in an imitation of their usual brawling, but not having Zoro's dumb face right in front of him makes it slightly easier to hold back that knee-jerk reaction.
Another part of him is just plain curious. Zoro doesn't always want to see him sooner rather than later. And by "doesn't always" he means "pretty much never".
And yet another part just harrumphs in annoyance while Sanji grumbles under his breath. Yeah, because it's just so fucking easy to leave these shitty forced game things? Idiot.
It's a combination of the latter two reactions that have him replying with nothing more than:]
...

what
[those three dots tell him nothing, cook. Granted, he doesn't know shit about how the game works, he's just glad it didn't grab him up this time, apparently. So it's a new-arrival month, is it?]
don't tell me youre actually having a good time in there

you know I'm not, don't be fucking stupid. did you know that screaming shit with nothing but capital letters makes you sound like you're spouting bullshit?
[Kind of amused over here.
Also yeah, time to get out of this fucking game. Let him just...figure out how to do that real quick.]

[Probably not, but it's the thought that counts.]
I know I said I didn't care what we caught, but I'll be a little disappointed if I don't even see a fish at least as big as me.
[because if there aren't fish that big in here, this game sucks. It doesn't have to be a sea king, just a giant tuna or a shark or something!]

I know what it does and thats WHY I DID IT
because your dumb face isn't here for me to yell at
[huff huff. Why did he miss this asshole, anyway? Well. Shh. No.]
by the way I'm hungry

uh-huh.
there any food there? hell, is ANY of my shit there or did you chuck it all?
[Because if he needs to go shopping before he gets home, tell him now. He already might do so just because this outfit is sort of ridiculous. It's not like he's attending a shitty ball or something, geez.]

we didn't touch your shit, its right where you left it.
[although the kitchen counters are covered in a fine layer of pizza boxes. At least his room is somewhat untouched, except where Zoro attempted to straighten things up in the outside chance he needed to move in there.]
no food tho

so thoughtful.
[Well...it is, but it also makes him wonder if they've just...not been using his room at all? He knows Luffy prefers to bunk with someone else, but still. Over a month and his bedroom is just sitting there empty?]
fine, I'll stop and get something. what do you guys want?
