                Month 5.5

Tashigi enjoyed her afternoon sessions out on the training field. Today, she was working with Helmeppo while Coby watched the baby sleep in the shade on a blanket. Just as she was demonstrating a particularly good move to the taller blond (it would really help with his leverage), she heard loud laughing and then a cry coming from the direction of the shade.

Tashigi’s eyebrow started to twitch in response. Garp. She turned to see the retired Vice Admiral swinging Suzume through the air and making faces at her. Suzume responded by crying louder.

“Sir! Put her down! She was sleeping!”

“Wahahaha~! You should start training this one already! By this age, Luffy was climbing out of piles that I buried him under!” Garp punctuated this by swinging the little girl higher. She responded by spitting up on him. Garp looked at his ruined shirt and laughed harder.

XDD Garp is truly a scary individual. This is a neat little ficlet (a ficlet within a fic?) tho I wonder who the father is. -ponders-

Garp is terrifying! I would never let him near a child! (Poor Luffy...) The father's not a mystery (to the reader) in the story... it's Zoro. Bit, he doesn't know at this point as it is in the middle of the timeskip.
