Soft sunlight filtered through the jungle leaves, spraying a pattern of gold over the newly wed teenagers as they took in an afternoon meal. The young man pulled a face, then another, as he moved his jaw around. At long last, he spat the shattered remnants of a cherry stem out onto the ground.
"It's impossible, Anela!" Calgara shouted. His companion giggled at this, and popped a fresh cherry into her mouth.
"Do you know what they say about cherry stems, Calgara?" she asked deviously. The young warrior rolled his eyes. He was growing tired of women and their ridiculous lore. Anela continued, "They say that people who can tie knots in cherry stems make excellent kissers."
Calgara frowned. "I don't see how that has anything to do with kissing," he said. "Besides, I just tried it. It's impossible."
A neatly curled and undeniably knotted cherry stem slid out of Anela's mouth. She took it between her fingers and waved it in front of his face victoriously.
"How... how did you do that?"
A sly grin crossed her lips as she scooted closer. "I'll show you," she said, and she did, kissing him deeply to demonstrate precisely what movements were necessary. Calgara blinked, feeling heat rise to his cheeks before condensing itself... elsewhere.
"I think I need you to show me that again," he breathed. His wife did so gladly, pushing him into a soft patch of moss as she taught him at great length and in full detail the exact method for success.
"THAT BOWL'S FOR NAMI-SWAN AND ROBIN-CHWAN LEAVE IT ALONE YOU SHITHEAD!" Sanji's footprint was now embedded in Luffy's face. The ensuing racket which filled the Galley aboard the Thousand Sunny was nothing out of the ordinary, though it brought Calgara out of his reverie. He slipped a perfectly tied cherry stem out of his mouth and regarded it for a moment, chuckling to himself.
Robin caught his chuckle out of the corner of her eye, and looked at him carefully. "What's made you smile all of the sudden?" she wondered.
A devilish grin crossed Calgara's face as he held up the stem for her to see. "Do you know what they say about cherry stems, Robin?"
