( why would you bring up the thing she's trying not to think about )
yeah i do
( trying to find different angles to poke at this particular elephant in the room. eventually, nami finds the middle road between directly addressing it and ignoring it altogether. )
( her heart beats a little faster in her chest — surprised, mostly. nervously, tangentially. )
it’s not bad i was worried about it being you know. since we were acting crazy but no it’s definitely not bad
( not for her in any case. for sanji? remains to be seen. it’s not like nami has no idea how much it sucks when someone you trust breaks that trust — sanji has done it to her himself. zoro has. luffy has. shanks has. being a number on a list doesn’t make the blow sting any less, but it’s not like sanji is some terrible guy in this. he’s been hurt before, too. sometimes by nami. there has to be a last straw eventually.
jinx doesn’t deserve that, though. she’s a good girl — to nami, she’s the best girl, regardless of good. )
i like you too, jinx. it wasn’t a mistake let me talk to sanji and zoro. i’ll try to make it right there’s kinda rules mostly unspoken. naturally but i won’t leave you in the dark, and i won’t let them take it out on you ok?
got it on good authority that im always acting crazy 🤷♀️
[ girl who still has not clocked that the hunt did anything actually.
i like you, though, that’s — it was unfamiliar enough in the forest. jinx is someone who has been loved, yes, but not often liked. tolerated, maybe. better still: i won’t leave you in the dark. she’s been left so many times, by so many people. jinx almost doesn’t believe her, but — why lie? why risk sanji and zoro? ]
ok whatever u have to do i’ll like u no matter what
