Chapter Text
Tony Tony Chopper sat at his desk in the infirmary of the Thousand Sunny, the open journal containing his doctor's notes in front of him . Nearly everyone had already left the ship for the day, leaving Robin on watch. Even Franky and Usopp had left, apparently on an errand was all the little doctor was able to overhear.
He added notes on the plants he had found on Ochre Island and their medicinal properties into the journal before he decided that he was finished. Sitting back, he replaced the book in with his others on the desk before pulling out a thinner notebook from a locked drawer. Flipping it open to a blank page, he began to write.
Usopp: Entry Number One
I originally started writing these notes in order to understand how is it that two human males can fall in love and date. But now I'm seeing an interesting complication.
Usopp.
He's not taking the idea of Sanji and Zoro dating too well.
He seems...shocked...”that two such strong men would want to be with each other.” (His words.)
I have to admit that I didn't see it coming either, but then again, I'm a reindeer.
Usopp seems to be against the idea of Sanji and Zoro dating.
Robin says that its not his business, and that Sanji and Zoro are still the same strong men they always were . Its just that they're now closer emotionally to each other as well .
To me, the entire thing's a bit weird, but only because they argued so much I thought it was because of hate, not love.
Humans are strange beings.
* ~*~*~*~*
Usopp and I talked a bit later , and he seems to think that “the idea of two men dating means that they' re weakened somehow .” (My quotes.)
This must be a strictly human thing as I see no sign of weakness despite Sanji and Zoro dating. I should know. I gave them both thorough exams after he said that.
Both seem as strong as ever to me.
I suppose in some way, Usopp thinks that this will make them “less of a man,” but how that it supposed to happen, I have no idea.

Sanji and Zoro: Entry Number Three
Today, Nami pointed out that Zoro had a “hickey” on his neck.
Robin explained that it is a sign that a human is “owned.”
I think she means that Zoro is no longer single.
If that is true, then why doesn't Sanji have one?
I think I prefer the human tradition of rings showing that one human belongs to another.
It probably wouldn't hurt as much.
* ~*~*~*~*
Today, I began in earnest my research about the type of relationship that two humans of the same sex can have. Its a subject I had never researched before, so I wasn't exactly sure what to expect. I found a brief chapter of it in one of my medical tomes.
Apparently, two humans of the same sex CAN still have sexual relations.
Interesting.
I never would have guessed that it was possible since the...parts...are the same.
I'm going to have to do more research on this.
I wonder where can I buy books that goes into more detail about this subject?
