"Eh!? What's going on!?"

Suddenly, Chopper's body stopped. His cheeks flushed pink as his eyes sparkled. Swaying back and forth, the pirate cooed in a sing-song voice. "Calling me cute won't make me happy at all, you jerk~!" His attempt to deflect fell flat, showing only joy. Sadly, this defense mechanism might upset her.

"Ahh!" Chopper flinched, shielding his head with his arms as he expected to be hit by the dog demon.

Chopper tilted his head at the sight of a ragdoll. She was taller than him but her behavior was enough to tell Chopper that she wasn't exactly a threat.

"Erm... yeah. I suppose you wouldn't be." He murmured as he looked the strange doll up and down. "What the heck are you...?"

Chopper let out a joyous squeal when lifted up, happily laughing at the new elevation. "Uooh! They have so much! I wanna have cherry pie!" He excitedly announced with sparkling eyes as he leaned his fluffy face against the back of her head.

"Noo! You called it a date! You can't just send me off alone!" Chopper squeezed her arm tighter to him, worriedly staring up at her face as he realized she might be getting ready to leave him somewhere nice and bail.

"We should share something together!"

"I thought it was my room! I'm new here!" Chopper whimpered fearfully, lowering his head to avoid eye contact as he realized he was already in a fight with an angel over a misunderstanding. He was so hopeless at making friends.

"I thought we were friends! I was just... augh!"

"You talk weird!" Chopper whimpered fearfully, taking a small step backwards as he stared wide-eyed at the person. Was this some type of prank?

"AHH! WHO ARE YOU!?"

"Eh!? You're asking me out!?" Chopper felt his heart race at the thought. Someone saw value in him!? An angel no less!? His small body shook excitedly before he greedily wrapped his scrawny arms around her arm, squeezing it lovingly to his fluffy torso.

"Okay! Let's go! Let's go!"

"Kid!? I'm a pirate!" Chopper huffed, crossing his arms in an irritated pout as he felt once again underestimated. "A big, strong monster and warrior of the sea! I thought Heaven would've recognized me by now!!!"

Stomping his tiny foot hoof in frustration, he held back tears and grumbled.

"Where's the best pastry store in Heaven!?"

"Uwah...!"

Chopper's eyes filled with excited tears, his body shaking at the thought of so easily receiving an autograph from such an incredibly renowned fighter.

"Chopper!"

"Succu what...? I'm a reindeer!" Chopper huffed, crossing his arms over his chest as he heard such a demeaning statement.

"Wh-What are you!? Stay back!"

"Ah!!! Evil demon!"

"I'm fine with anything, but I don't wanna sleep alone on the couch tonight. It's lonely."

Chopper admitted with a frown, having been used to sleeping with Usopp, Robin, or Luffy. One of his crew mates would always keep him company and the sleepover felt wrong without such closeness.
