Action

[Brook does his best not to let his shoulders dislocate, or anything weird like that during the adjustment. It's hard being carried around when the only thing keeping your bones together is the magical power of your soul.]

You think it's been a while for you? The only person I can try to talk to about such things is Sanji, and he's just as likely to kick me for thinking about a lady in a way he doesn't like. Honestly, the last time I had a conversation like that had to be... 55 years ago? So if you're feeling rusty, that's alright. I'm probably worse. Yohohoho!

But it is quite understandable. I actually wonder how Robin would react if I asked her such a question... I honestly don't know. She is the least likely of the crew to be outraged by my 'strange' questions... But perhaps it would be best if you broached the subject first.

I guess that's also a bit understandable. You feel like you have to make the extra effort to show how much more special they are than the other 1600 of your siblings, right? That's just a guess, since I also was part of a rather large crew of bards before joining the Straw Hats, so in some respects I can relate. I'm of the opinion that the best way to do it is show how much you care in big ways that are actually subtle.

For instance, doing something crazy and spontaneous like flying her out somewhere for a dinner beneath the stars. But planning ahead of time, so that it will seem more like you were caught out there because it would take too much energy to go back immediately. Perhaps store some nice wine and blankets to store there, that you can say you 'found' there. She'll of course know you set it up, but I think she'll just be able to appreciate the effort at that point. It's something I don't think I could ever pull of personally, but it seems like something that could work for you.

[Brook shakes his head as he realized he was getting carried away with his shipping ways again.]

Ah! That's right, I was thinking of perhaps teaching you to sing her a song. Would you perhaps be interested? It would certainly be a unique experience for me to be able to design a song with a bird in mind.
