Hiii, saw your request is open and I rlly love your writing style! Can I request a fluffy Sanji x Reader where Reader and Sanji are pining for each other and the whole crew is just tired of it, esp Nami and Robin because the couple think that their crush with one another is unrequited. Thus, the crew devised a plan to make them confess to one another.

Tysm and I hope u have a nice day <3

Aww tysm! I hope you enjoy it<3

I wish you a good day too:))

Masterlist

Feels for you

“How long have they been at this?”

Robin glanced at Sanji who was all over you,

“I believe it’s been about a week or two”

She said looking down at her book

Nami huffed

“And the both of em haven’t made a move yet?”

Robin shrugged

Nami looked at the two of you, Sanji was giving you some fresh food in the shape of hearts as he looked at you like a lovesick idiot

You, with obvious blush, ate the fruits that he offered you while thanking him.

It was ridiculously obvious how the two of you felt for each other, atleast for Robin and nami

“Hey you guys! Come here!”

Nami whispered at the rest of the crew

As everyone gathered inside, nami began to speak

“Have you guys noticed sanji and y/n?”

Luffy looked confusingly at nami as he ate a piece of meat Sanji cooked for him

“Now that you mentioned it, he has been giving them special attention compered to the two of you” said usopp

Zoro hummed, still sleepy

“Right??”

Nami sighed

Luffy and chopper looked at each other confusingly

“Why? Is anything wrong with them?”

Asked chopper

Usopp turned an whispered something to chopper, then at luffy

“WHA-mph!?”

Nami covered choppers mouth as she whispered yelled at chopper to be quiet

“Ohhh that’s why Sanji has been giving extra food to y/n!”

Luffy laughed as he finished his meal

“Im sick of those to simping for each other and not saying anything!”

Robin chuckled

“If you really don’t like it, you can always give them a little push,”

Nami looked at Robin surprised

“Robin that’s a great idea!”

Nami clapped her hands together

“Ok, everyone! Here’s the plan!”

/——————————————————————-\

“Y/nnnn!” Luffy yelled

Both you and Sanji looked at the hungry captain

“What do you want now luffy?” Sanji asked tired of him already

Luffy seemed to pause as if thinking back to something

“Oh yea! Y/n could you help me with something?”

You stared at him confused

“Uhh yea sure!”

He suddenly carried you and began to take you somewhere in the ship

“Luffy! Slow down!”

“Ah! Sorry y/n!”

He gently put you down

“What did you need help with?”

“Oh, I actually wanted to ask you something!”

You tilted your head at him

“Uh sure? What did you wanna ask me?”

He thought for a moment

“How do you know when you like someone?”

/——————————————————————-\

“Oi, love cook”

“What do you want now moss-head?”

Sanji groaned as he turned to Zoro who was now walking towards him

“So who’s the unlucky girl?”

“Huh??”

Zoro smirked at him

“Cmon, i know you like y/n, it’s pretty obvious by the way you treat her compered to everyone else”

Sanji blushed and looked away

“Ho-how??- that’s none of your business !”

Zoro’s smirk widened

“Oh but it is! Cause I like her too,”

Sanji quickly turned towards zoro shocked

He laughed

“In fact, I’m planning to confess to her once luffy brings her back”

Sanji glared at the swordsmen

“Don’t you dare!”

Zoro laughed more

“I’ll make you a deal since Im so nice, if you confess first, I’ll forgot about my little crush on her, but if I do it first, I think we both know what’ll happen”

Sanji seemed to glare at him even more

“Oh we’ll speak of the devil”

Zoro smiled as he turned towards you and Luffy walking towards them

“Oi! Y/n could I take to you?”

“DONT you dare moss-head!”

Sanji yelled at Zoro as he raced towards you

You tilted your head, confused

“Uhh sure?”

Zoro smirked and whispered something to Sanji which made him blush hard

“Erm… y/n could I talk to you in private?”

He said nervously

“Sure!”

The two of you walked away from Luffy and Zoro

The rest of the crew came out of their hiding spots

“All that is left is for Sanji to make the first step”

Nami smirked

“Finally!”

“Oi nami, where’s my booze?”

“AND my food!”

/——————————————————————-\

“So what did you wanna talk about?”

You turned to Sanji, a light blush in your cheeks

“Uhm well there’s something that I’ve been wanting to tell you for a long time…”

‘Could it be?’

You blushed at the idea

“Yea?”

He stayed quiet

“Y/n, i-erm….I like you, and not just as a friend! I like you more then that…. And uh…. You don’t have to return my feelings but I just wanted to let you know that….”

He avoided eye contact with you as he his blush worsened

You blushed at his words as a smile appeared on your face.

“Im glad Sanji, cause I may have the same feelings for you too!”

He turned to you surprisingly but that being replaced by a big lovesick smile on his face too

He approached you slowly and hesitantly wrapped his arms around you while giving your forehead a kiss

You hugged him back while inhaling his scent happy that you wouldn’t spend more time with your hidden feelings about him.

MOONLIGHT CHICKEN: UR THE... TOMATO SAUCE???

(above) Moonlight Chicken Ep.6 [4/4] 5.05

OK, so this post did a pretty pirouette and twirled its way back onto my dashboard once again after more than a month away. OP @vegasandhishedgehog had pointed out that the graphic text on Heart and Li Ming's t-shirts together seemed to be inexplicably telegraphing the cryptic message "Ur the... Tomato Sauce"... 🤔

This time around I couldn't help but look a bit more deeply into what it might mean, especially the intriguing "Tomato Sauce" on Li Ming's t-shirt. Based on what I've found, I think it is possible to read a bit of cheeky wordplay in the English words of this scene. 🤩 But first – a detour into linguistics and etymology is necessary.

There's a phenomenon that is sometimes seen in cross-cultural commerce – I don't know if it has a name, since I'm not trained in linguistics or anything of the sort – but whenever a hitherto unknown product or ingredient is introduced into a culture, locals will try to give it a name that resonates or sticks. And often that name will be along the lines of "this thing is the X country or foreign version of our more familiar local Y thing" (sorry for all the technical jargon here, hah! 😂).

You can see this in Southeast Asia: the Dutch may have been responsible for introducing many new food items to the Malay archipelago because a number of food items around the region are labeled "Dutch" even though they don't originate from the Netherlands.

The soursop fruit (originally from the tropical Americas and the Caribbean) is called durian belanda in Malay (meaning Dutch durian, because both fruits are spiky). In Malaysian Cantonese, potatoes are sometimes called ho laan syu (Holland tuber) and green beans ho laan dau (Holland beans), the latter echoing the way haricots verts are sometimes called French beans in English.

In Malay, turkeys are called ayam belanda (Dutch chicken), which nicely parallels the French word dinde – when turkeys were introduced to France, they were called (among other names) poulet d'Inde or chicken of India (possibly because India was seen as a source of exotic prized goods, or maybe because the birds, native to the Americas, were thought of as originating in the West Indies or les Indes occidentales). Poulet d'Inde eventually got shortened to just dinde though.

There's something similar going on with the tomato in Thailand. As its original homeland was the Americas, at some point in time it must have been a new and unnamed vegetable (botanically a fruit) when it first appeared in markets there.

So in Thai, tomatoes are called มะเขือเทศ (ma kheuua thaeht), and in keeping with the principle of adding some qualifier (that denotes external origins) to a local counterpart, the word เทศ (thaeht) means foreign or outlandish, while มะเขือ (ma kheuua) actually means EGGPLANT.

Thus the Thai word for tomato translates literally to foreign eggplant (or perhaps, outlandish eggplant).

For the text-savvy in this digital age (and that must surely include teens Heart and Li Ming), the eggplant emoji is laden with phallic innuendo (I'm not going into detail, but here's a visual 😂):

🍆

Remembering that in Thailand, Thai equivalents of weiner and wee-wee can sometimes be used as cutesy nicknames for boys (see this My School President write-up linked here, also Uncle Tong calling Junior กระจู๋ or gra juu in Bad Buddy Ep.11 [1I4] 10.38), it's possible to read the "Tomato" part of Li Ming's t-shirt – because of the outlandish eggplant reference – as a subjectively cute pet name along the same lines. Maybe the effect is meant to be something like: "You're a weird little weiner" (expressed with affection through Heart's loving eyes, mind you 💖).

Plus there's also the theme in Moonlight Chicken of young Li Ming growing into adulthood (despite Jim's constant efforts to infantilize him), while comfortably claiming his own sexuality in the process (and with Heart playing a pivotal role in this). Heart and Li Ming's t‑shirts pointing out the innuendo and imagery of the tomato/eggplant could also be a nod at that, with the outlandish definition of เทศ/thaeht suggesting that since Li Ming is gay, this eggplant/gra juu is not like most other ones (although he's not at all the exception in Moonlight Chicken! 😂).

Noting too that Li Ming is hyperfocused on escaping to the West, him being labeled Little Weiner of a Foreign Persuasion also does kind of fit. 😍

In this light, the word sauce just adds to the naughtiness of eggplant, while it also carries connotations of piquancy, sass and/or the essence or distillation of something.

And so the "Tomato Sauce" on Li Ming's t-shirt can possibly be read as symbolizing his indomitably feisty (gay) spirit, his faraway aspirations and his place in Heart's life as a cherished young boyfriend (worthy of a cutesy, if unspoken, pet name).

Am I over-analyzing again? Perhaps. But at the very least I think it's still a fun way of looking at Li Ming's t-shirt, and I wouldn't put it past Director Aof and screenwriter Best Kittisak Kongka to be playing with stuff like this. 🤩 They already did something similar with Li Ming's Sesame Street "Everything I Know I Learned On The Streets" t-shirt (see Ep.3 [4/4] 6.42), a metaphor for his uneasy juxtaposition at the amorphous line between childhood (represented by the kiddie vibes of Sesame Street) and incipient adulthood (as signaled by his streetwise self-confidence, gained independently perhaps from Jim). And there was also the wordplay around his "St. Rene" t-shirt (written up here).

Tagging @vegasandhishedgehog because you're the eagle-eyed OP who first noticed Heart and Li Ming's t-shirts, and as always @dribs-and-drabbles because you're foremost the one I think of whenever there's anything t-shirt related in BL! 😍

PS It's not the first time a vegetable was used as a metaphor for larger issues in Moonlight Chicken – see my write-up at the end of @airenyah's My School President Thai linguistics post that I reblogged here, for more info on Jim's winter melons in the market (although he was being decidedly less playful there! 😍). Li Ming also steals the scene away from Jim and his produce, once again displaying more adult maturity than his loong will give him credit for. 💖

Come un fiore che schiude i suoi petali al sole del mattino, come un piccolo d’aquila che spalanca il becco per ricevere nutrimento dalla sua regale madre, come un innamorato che apre le braccia per accogliere e stringere a sé l’amata, diventando uno, come terra arida che assorbe avidamente ogni singola goccia di una fresca e tanto attesa pioggia, con la quale poi si mescola, divenendo indistinguibile, ma mutata nel colore, nell’odore, nel sapore e persino nella consistenza… Così in me, nel profondo del mio cuore, percepisco e riconosco un movimento verso una Fonte che ha in sé Vita, che è Essa stessa Vita, che rinnova e rigenera tutta la Vita. E quanta Bellezza, quanta Gratitudine, quanta Gioia, quanta Pace ed accoglienza nel ritrovarsi a Casa… Ho ripercorso a ritroso la strada lungo la quale mi ero allontanato, ho versato lacrime su lacrime per ripulire gli occhi dalla polvere e dalla sabbia da cui erano offuscati, ho ascoltato il battito del cuore per sentirmi meno solo ed impaurito nelle notti senza luna, ho ritrovato gli angoli, le svolte, gli incroci e i bivi che un tempo mi avevano disorientato e fatto smarrire… Dietro di me, a terra, ho lasciato una pesante catena spezzata, troppo corta, sia per la Libertà, sia per la Vita… Ora sono qui, oltre quella soglia che non riuscivo a varcare, oltre quella porta di cui non trovavo mai la chiave, oltre quella paura, quella rabbia e quella colpa che non riuscivo a confessare, oltre il tradimento che non riuscivo a perdonare… Casa mia… il luogo più piccino che conosco, così minuscola da stare tutta dentro il cuore, le cui pareti sono a tal punto impercettibili, che arrivano a confondersi con la più remota profondità dell’Universo, dove il sole sorge e non tramonta, dove brillano le stelle in un cielo sempre blu… Sorrido, canto e ballo insieme all’alba che nasce, dopo una lunga notte buia… Tu sei in me… Tu sei la Luce, la Bellezza e la Grazia che avevo abbandonato, Tu sei la Vita che mi anima, Tu sei l’Amore che mi nutre… Tu sei… Casa mia. Con Gratitudine e Amore. Sid Atma ********************************* Like a flower that opens its petals in the morning sun, like a baby eagle opening its beak to receive nourishment from its royal mother, like a lover who opens his arms to welcome and embrace her beloved, becoming one, like arid land that greedily absorbs every single drop of a fresh and long-awaited rain, with which it then mixes, becoming indistinguishable, but changed in colour, smell, taste and even in consistency… Thus in me, in the depths of my heart, I perceive and recognize a movement towards a Source which has Life in itself, which is itself Life, which renews and regenerates all Life. And how much Beauty, how much Gratitude, how much Joy, how much Peace and welcome in being at Home… I retraced the road along which I had left, I shed tears upon tears to cleanse my eyes of the dust and sand that clouded them, I listened to the heartbeat to feel less alone and scared on moonless nights, I rediscovered the corners, turns, crossroads and crossroads that had once disoriented me and led me astray… Behind me on the ground I left a heavy broken chain, too short, both for Liberty and for Life… Now I'm here, beyond that threshold that I could not cross, beyond that door whose key I never found, beyond that fear, that anger and that guilt that I could not confess, beyond the betrayal that I could not forgive… My home… the smallest place I know, so tiny that it fits entirely inside the heart, whose walls are so imperceptible that they get confused with the most remote depths of the Universe, where the sun rises and doesn't set, where the stars shine in an ever blue sky… I smile, sing and dance together with the dawn that is born, after a long dark night… You are in me… You are the Light, the Beauty and the Grace that I had abandoned, You are the Life that animates me, You are the Love that feeds me… You are… My home. With Gratitude and Love. Sid Atma

Mi sono chiuso dentro i miei pensieri come un pauroso cavaliere dentro il suo castello e vivo dei miei ricordi stantii, armato di silenzi e rimpianti. Così, la mia anima è un castello dalle spesse mura, una lussuosa prigione dove ho chiuso i miei sogni e simulando una felicità inutile e vago di camera in camera dicendomi che ho bisogno di me stesso, che i miei silenzi hanno quanto mi manca e che negli angoli bui delle stanze, vivono i miei desideri. Non è cosi, lo so per istinto. Le stanze sono solo abitate da fantasmi, ombre senza volto, vestiti senza corpo, perché ho fermato il fluire della vita ed essa ristagna nella mia anima imputridendo. Oltre le mura il mare si gonfia con il maestrale o si acquieta con lo scirocco, il vento passa tra i filari di uva portando loro il gusto dell’ebrezza, stelle nel cielo si accendono di note e si vestono d’azzurro di giorno nascondendosi nella loro stessa luce; deserti infiniti divorano carovane e migranti uccisi dalla speranza, bombe esplodono e foreste si accendono di nuove gemme, nuvole portano vita, altre la portano via, tutto è un continuo essere e cambiare, mutare e rinascere. Ma io resto chiuso nelle mie stanze silenziose ed immobili, incerto, insicuro, a tutto vulnerabile e di tutto annoiato. Dimentico i colori dei boschi in autunno, il canto vetroso della lava nel suo infuocato scorrere, la luce della schiuma del mare illuminata dal sole, il profumo delle olive schiacciate, quello del pane appena sfornato, dimentico ogni parte del mondo che racchiude un mio ricordo- I miei ricordi diventano sottili ed invisibili e come le vecchie ragnatele fermano solo la polvere. Non bisognerebbe mai far morire un amore, mai non si dovrebbe mai scrivere la propria anima sulla pelle di chi si ama descrivendola con versi carnali scritti per una provvisoria eternità, non si dovrebbe mai nascondere nei sogni i propri giorni e domani se poi li si affida al vento che muore sul mare.

I locked myself inside my thoughts like a fearful knight inside his castle and I live on my stale memories, armed with silences and regrets. Thus, my soul is a castle with thick walls, a luxurious prison where I have closed my dreams and, simulating a useless happiness, I wander from room to room telling myself that I need myself, that my silences have what I miss and that in the dark corners of the rooms, my desires live. It's not like that, I know instinctively. The rooms are inhabited only by ghosts, faceless shadows, clothes without bodies, because I have stopped the flow of life and it stagnates in my soul rotting away. Beyond the walls the sea swells with the mistral or calms down with the sirocco, the wind passes between the rows of grapes bringing them the taste of inebriation, stars in the sky light up with notes and dress in blue by day, hiding in the their own light; infinite deserts devour caravans and migrants killed by hope, bombs explode and forests light up with new gems, clouds bring life, others take it away, everything is a continuous being and changing, mutating and being reborn. But I remain closed in my silent and motionless rooms, uncertain, insecure, vulnerable to everything and bored with everything. I forget the colors of the woods in autumn, the glassy song of the lava in its fiery flow, the light of the sea foam illuminated by the sun, the scent of crushed olives, that of freshly baked bread, I forget every part of the world that contains a memory of mine - My memories become thin and invisible and like old cobwebs they only stop the dust. A man should never let a love die, a man should never write his soul soul on the skin of who he loves describing it with carnal verses written for a temporary eternity, a man should never hide his days in dreams and tomorrow if one entrusts them to the wind that dies on the sea.

Why are rain frogs so round? What's /inside/ of them around such an itty bitty skeleton?

So it turns out this is a really interesting question.

The first thing we must be aware of is that rainfrogs as we see them in videos of them squeaking are not quite the same shape as they are when at rest:

[x]

But you are quite right, they are very round. This is exemplified by the skeletal photo you refer to:

[X]

So what are we seeing?

Well, firstly, note that the body cavity in these frogs actually envelops the femurs, such that only the tibiofibula (fused in frogs) and the tarsals and metatarsals are outside the body. The arms are quite similarly enveloped, but a bit of the humerus does extend outside the body cavity too. This predisposes them to a rounder body shape.

Next, note the ilia - the U-shaped bone in the pelvic region. These in some breviceptid frogs are synostotically fused with the sacrum - that is to say, they are bound by bone-based connections to the bow-shaped vertebra at their tips. This whole joint seems to be quite smooth, and as a consequence, the back of the frog is quite smooth. The other thing we can see here is that the urostyle (i.e. the frog version of a coccyx) juts quite far beyond the ischium and pubis. This extends the body cavity beyond the hips. Note also that the pelvic girdle seems to be largely below the spine, rather than the typical position for frogs behind it and continuous with it. This makes the legs sit below the spine, rather than at its end, enhnacing the vertical roundness of the animal.

Next, let’s talk some soft tissue. Now, I’m not as familiar with soft-tissue in frogs as I am their skeletons, so you’ll have to bear with me a bit (rawr). Beddard (1908!!) studied the soft tissue of Breviceps verrucosus Rapp 1842. It seems that the majority of the body of these frogs is actually muscle. Beddard noted that muscles join the leg at the knee that extend into the body cavity, such that the inclusion of the thigh in the body cavity is further accentuated by musculature. The rectus abdominalis muscle is unusually large, extending from the lower abdomen up and around the sides of the body. Indeed, this large size appears to be the pattern with all of the major muscles, though in the throat the typical arrangement of large and small muscles is somewhat reversed. On the lateral side of the head, there is a substance that is not muscle, but appears to be loose tissue in which sits what is apparently the thymus gland.

There is a very large gap between the end of the urostyle and the anus (one fifth of the total length of the frog), in which there are almost no muscles, save for the one surrounding the lower cloaca. On either side of this area, between the posterior-most muscles of the thigh, lie two large ‘lymph-hearts’, as described by Beddard. These are between one quarter and one third of the total length of the frog. A further lypmh-sac sits between these lymph-hearts and the skin of the femoral region, and they are thus probably analogous to the femoral lymph-sacs of other frogs.

I find it interesting that Beddard (1908) did not mention any glandular formations in the dorsal region. As is evidence from many images (see below), these frogs are able to secrete a white, sticky, noxious substance from their skin (which they actually have to use during amplexus, as the male is too small relative to the female to mount her properly, and so he sticks himself to her with his glandular glue… kinky).

These glands do not apparently take up a great deal of the cutaneous tissue, and so I suppose are of no consequence to the size of the frog, especially relative to its enormous muscles.

The diet of these frogs consists almost exclusively of hymenopterans and isopterans (ants and termites). Neither of these insect groups are particularly fatty, so it is little surprise that their bodies appear to contain no large fat deposits - fatty bodies extend from the gonads up to the lungs and heart, but these comprise only a tiny fraction of the frog’s mass, and don’t contribute to the round shape. Instead, their bodies are extremely muscular, allowing them to be adept burrowers, ideal for their fossorial lifestyle.

So TL;DR: rain frogs are little balls of muscle (maybe the largest muscle mass relative to body mass of any vertebrate? science just doesn’t know).
