[Does Luffy have any idea how lethal he is sometimes? He just says things, so casually, so earnestly, and he has no idea how thoroughly they devastate people. People, in this case, meaning Koby.
And he believes what he says; that Koby's come a long way. He's not the terrified, awkward, unwilling cabin boy he was when they met. Maybe that's what gives Koby the courage to take a deep breath, sit up, then move to straddle Luffy's waist, sitting in his lap, hands on his shoulders.]
I have. I'm not -- as scared of what I want anymore. I'm not scared. [A deep breath, then he leans forward, kissing Luffy again, deeper, firmer.]
