#[Voyage of the Devil's Eye]

[daystarvoyage]

Hair representation matters in entertainment industry (including black people) Don’t ignore this.

Time to discuss People of color (POC)representation,

Why we need more Hairstyles, inspiration in media for culture.

It's time to debunk HERE I GO!!!

Hello To all the Lovely Stars & Space Voyagers, This is the Brown Sugar Queen Kyoko Cane Aka The Black Crystal Jem Of The Daystar Voyage, I am a Cosplayer, A Fabulous Blerd if you will who does Drag/perform, Making Creative content on platforms involving Family Entertainment Mostly with some variety in it.

I come to talk about something that's been buzzing in my mind about a topic needing to get debunked & spoken about, IS POC REPRESENTATION & HAIRSTYLES IN MEDIA.

GOD POC REP MATTERS IN MEDIA MATTERS ( STOP ACTING LIKE IT DOESNT)

As a black Person Growing Up Myself, It has been a beautiful journey road being a proud African American man coming out as genderqueer, I always Found Comfort & love In My own Skin & even my Hair of all textures, first time I saw the ever Strong lightning goddess storm in the xmen series on fox kids made a great impact in my life in the early days of the 80s & 90s along other favorite shows back then however,

POC representation in the Future of Anime & western animation even in today's media has been distorted Or even limited on how we as black people are drawn. from caricatures To Stereotypes, or to follow a certain trend to make a profit from viewers & fans be it from influencers & popular media or just to be made Fun Of & Mocked, do to make a profit out of our black origins & History.

Example black character such as Usopp One piece.

however there have been great anime that have made our features positive one is Sol Bianca and others

Pokemon, Michiko Hatchin, Naruto & Carole And Tuesday.

Just like In Real Life, We As black people come in so many textures and beautiful complexions as you see in all of animation, & black-owned magazines, such as essence and this one Called Jet in the 1920s through Now celebrating our great culture.

We As Blerds, Black Fans & Cosplayers should have good content in which we can express, & be uplifted by our skin Personality & meaning itself, No matter what background or environment to which we dress, or cosplay a character that's out of our skin tone.

we come so far to the point where we have great indie creators, cosplayers even compays from hair products blogs Manga & comic books.

I'm glad that we are coming into our own and doing better but there's still work to be done, on how Hollywood treats us, and until we see the next all-black piece of media that's when we make it

(Carole & Tuesday, afro samurai & Yusuke on netflix prime example)

NEXT SEGMENT

We need more Black Hairstyles in animation & we need it more than ever.

The Hair Style Topic, oh yes its no big surprise that hair controversy within media has sparked in outrage,or made in impact throughout, be it in and out of workplaces or in the entertainment industry, I do feel at times things could've been handled with care.

From what I've seen we have gotten 2 steps forward, 4 steps back situation of all the controversies coming from the killmonger haircut that's been sported, which is a limited stifled hairdo on how we are only presented and how our hair can be made into cause it's a following trend, Because this is not the only distinct hairsyle to have Iin animated media, A Half Cut Mop will Not do So Put some Soul Glo & Let It Grow.

NOW you may wonder why i decided to put this post of a Disney main character of afro Latina background, well Luz Noceda I feel has great growth coming out to her friends and chosen family, however doesn't change the fact they didn't do anything for her to show ethnic representation other than speak Spanish, Having to show that aggressive Spicy latina Archetype to a Degree, & have a black father mention in season 2, having given no origin story or closure.

throughout the show this showed has shown great lgbt representation even though at times flawed, in the relationship area. ( another topic for a video COmING SOON) however the owl house has fall flat on ethnic & hair representation, Gus is a great example of a character being sidelined a lot too.

for instance luz noceda has been stifled into nothing but that pokemon goh knockoff haircut,

even though there may have been open-minded viewers,who agree on luz hair being styled effectively, making many statements that hair shows so many emotions in animation, Down below

That all hair on poc characters is a good is how you pull it off, in the picture below there tons of great characters in many hairdos complementing them.

sometimes i wish luz character could have handled by poc staff, and have her own break out like the rest of the female characters, cause I kid you not, I met a lot of non-gender-conforming characters or people, who sport many hair designs. It infuriates me such a beautiful person Luz Batista find out the pilot that her character was somewhat sidelined due to the writing Problems & Shipping and I'm baffled how of course white staff members didn't do their research on Afro Latina her cause Luz is beautiful

Knowing other shows such as Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur Do an incredible job of Discussing on how black hair is powerful, magical & comes in many shapes and intricate designs if you know what your doing and I for one have a graceful mother who a beautician coming from her,

We are in an era where black people shouldn't exist or we arent amount to anything and I too had my fair share of my hair being talked about in a nasty way,

This concludes the story post of how black representation should matter support shows out of mainstream like indie projects, cause there paving the way also a video post of my channel and The owl house debunk series thanks.

Now this is has been another topic post , right now getting ready for my epic momocon outing meeting Disney creators, and everything animation, hope everyone has a good one and all the links on good hair and my video post is here below, Have a Have a Nice Cruise & Stay Shining.

[sins-of-the-sea]

-The Voyage of the Devil's Eye-

This is mostly a plotting aid for anyone who wishes to find the Devil's Eye and defeat the Master. Or however you want to do with the Eye yourself.

-To Start the Voyage-

You will need to find The Compass (La Brújula), once held in possession by the Montego Family from Manila, Philippines, though it is said there is no one left of St. Emilio's lineage after 1711.

If you are to go by the Main Story, the Compass will be located in Kingston, Jamaica.

Appearance-wise, this doesn't look any different from any other old rusted compass, though it lacks a face.

However, as this is no ordinary compass, as it will "track" whatever you ask for, no matter where it is in the world, no matter how far or far removed. With that said, it can't point to you the direction of something as vague as "my true love" or "the greatest wealth in the world"; it has to be something specific, such as "my missing car keys" or "my deadbeat father". Brújula won't HAVE to know what those keys look like or who that deadbeat father is; what matters is that the object being tracked is concrete and real.

Brújula is capable of moving her needle should the target move as well, so if one is searching for a living bounty, it is possible for her to change directions as the target is on the move.

Do note, however, as this is a compass, the object cannot talk, tell you the distance of the object tracked, nor give you directions via map or charts. You have to be on foot and follow where the needle points at all times.

From here, to find the Eye, you must find the Seven Keys of St. Emilio. Skipping this step will not allow you to get the Devil's Eye, though feel free to try. You'll regret it.

-Seven Seas, Seven Keys-

To properly get to the Devil's Eye, you will need to get the Seven Keys of St. Emilio. Without them, you will not be able to access the Eye itself.

Each Key has different 'steps' in reaching them, usually entailing the following:

Identifying the location in the globe first.

Entering the location and getting past guards, security, etc., if the place is a nationally guarded area.

Getting past the Keys' personal guardians, if applicable

Touching the case holding the Key, or the Key itself

Enter a pocket dimension which your muse must pass a trial. What kind of Trial? I ain't tellin you shit.

If you pass, the Key is yours to take and carry with you for the rest of the voyage.

If you fail, the Key will be untoucheable for you and you must rely on someone else to pass the Trial. Usually a buddy, partner, a Crewmate, etc.

Rinse and repeat six more times.

During this Voyage, your muse will be traveling in different parts of the world. In the Main Story, these include England, Rome, the Levant, China, and so forth. In the Modern Day or even Far Future AU, the locations can be up in the air and we can plot where they can be, if they are still split up at all by that point.

-Reaching the Devil's Eye-

Once you have the 7 Keys, you'll be able to reach the Devil's Eye, which in itself can be its own Trial (hence why you need the Keys). The Locker containing the Eye is a puzzle box in itself which requires solving in addition to needing the complete set to open.

And once you open the Locker, the Devil's Eye will be within your grasp.

What will you do with it? Keep it? Put it in a museum? Gift it to someone else? Replace your own Eye and use it? Purify it? Give it to the Master? Or destroy it once and for all?

It's imperative you make a decision and stick with it--the longer you keep the Eye in your grasp, the more you'll feel your own darkest desires, impulses, and vices rise up without any inhibition or moral fiber to temper it all down. While it doesn't literally "whisper" to you or force you to go 'My preeeecioooous', it can compel you do to things you'd never think you would. Intrusive thoughts become harder to escape. The idea of murdering someone for any reason at all starts to feel easier and easier to fulfill. And the worst part--you can gain your own powers to which no holy man, priest, or shaman can defeat.

Though be wary. The longer you hold onto the Eye and not destroy it, the closer the Master and his Seven Sins may come....

Werewolf Shanks - Looking through his eyes

You hated this life. At the age of nine, you were kidnapped by slave traders along with other children from a village full of hybrids and supernaturals and then sold to other islands as cheap labor.

You didn't know if it was luck or bad luck, but you were the only one they kept. They used you as a major draw to attract customers. An exotic dancer with a graceful body and fox-like features who could charm anyone with her moves. 

But even though you were a slave, you were their second most valuable treasure. Money, of course, came first. But if they had to sacrifice the ship or you, they would sacrifice the ship, because thanks to your efforts, they could easily afford a new one. 

As you were guarded, no one could touch you. You were glad for that. Though that didn't apply if there were few buyers, or if you were on a poor island.

Then the captain got mad, drunk, and more than once you had to cover up purple and yellow bruises or a black eye or a busted lip during a performance. But he never dared to break a bone. Then you wouldn't be able to dance and it would be a loss for them.

Your only consolation was the dream of freedom and the ability you had because of your devil fruit. It was the ability to see the world through the eyes of your soul mate.

Even though you had no idea who he was, you envied his freedom. In addition, you had another special quality that made you even more precious and exotic. You were a kitsune. You had fox ears and a few bushy tails that had grown over the years. Now you had a total of three. 

Most of the time, you caught the one whose eyes you could see in a pub, laughing and drinking carelessly with other friends. Other times, when you looked at night, you saw him in the woods. He regularly hunted at night, mostly smaller animals, but many times he came across something bigger, or a bear. 

Quite often his gaze was also directed towards the sky and especially the moon. You felt as if you were closer to him because you were watching the same sky. This ability kept you hoping that maybe one day you too would see such freedom.

You sat in your small quarters, waiting to see when you would finally reach the next island. You had your own room, but it was so small that you were claustrophobic. Especially on long voyages, when you were forbidden to leave your cabin, supposedly to avoid tempting the crew into mischief.

Even though you were in your little prison, you were still in shackles that hung like jewels from your neck and arms. It was a reminder that you were still just a slave.

From the noise on the ship, you judged that your ordeal was coming to an end and that you were finally nearing the island. And you were right. 

Some time later the captain came in good spirits and ordered you to get ready for the evening. You would have to charm a distinguished audience. Supposedly they were pirates of one of the sea emperors. That made you nervous, because you'd never danced in front of anyone so important before.

But your fears were relieved when you discovered they looked and acted like normal, ordinary pirates. You couldn't even tell who the captain was.

At your captain's command, the music started playing and you started dancing. You danced and swayed to the rhythm. Your tails swished behind you like a fan, adding to the magic. You could feel their eyes on you, and someone else would have collapsed under them, but you kept going. 

You approached the potential buyers and you had no idea what you were thinking, but you wanted to find out what your soulmate had just seen. You almost tripped over your own feet when you realized you were looking at yourself as you danced. 

So he must have been here. Among these pirates. You shut down your ability and tried to figure out who it was. Unfortunately, you were only guessing, as you had no clue as to who it might be.

You were disturbed from your thoughts by a red haired pirate who gently pulled you into his lap with one hand. You were used to this sort of thing and decided to give him a little private dance. He smiled warmly at you and looked at you like no one else could. 

Most people when they pulled you close like that would prefer to eat you on the spot and have their way with you. You didn't feel that way here, and you had to smile. There were three scars across his left eye and you noticed his left arm was missing, but he was still one of the few times you'd be glad he'd set you free.

You felt a chill run down your spine and you knew you had been with this pirate too long and you had to get back to the center. Only now did you realize how the almost perfect full moon was shining down on you.

You spent a few more days on the island, and every evening was spent dancing for the pirates, in whom your captain saw great merchants. And every night, the red-haired pirate pulled you in for a while. Not that you were complaining.

However, after those few days, a rumor spread among the slavers about a blood-red werewolf that was supposedly tormenting the local inhabitants and wildlife.

You had no idea what the truth of it was, but as the full moon approached, the slavers grew more and more frightened and would have liked to raise anchor.

But your captain refused to do that, so the crew had to obey. You were so intrigued by this rumor and the crew's fear that you thought to use it for an escape plan.

You carried out your plan on the day of the full moon. Just as the sun set and the silver orb slowly rose into the sky. You waited for the slavers to take their turns. You were all sleeping in tents outside, so you had a much better opportunity to escape.

You waited until the slavers coming back from patrol passed you, knowing that by the time the second patrol got here it would be 5 minutes max if you were lucky and if not you had about 2 minutes to run undetected to the forest.

You didn't delay a second and you made your way as fast as you could to the woods. As soon as you passed the last of the tents, you started running. After a few seconds, you heard screams and footsteps.

"Stop! Stop right now you little vixen! You belong to me, do you understand?!" the captain yelled at you. You gritted your teeth and started sprinting. However, in the darkness you didn't notice the fallen branch and soon you were on the ground.

"Ow," you yelped in pain and tried to get up. However, such pain shot through your leg that it buckled. You heard the captain approaching fiercely.

"Ha, you thought you were going to get away from me?" he sneered at you, and you got the feeling that if he caught you now, it wouldn't end well. So you started crawling forward, away from him.

The captain was close to you when the moonlight was blocked by a giant figure with one arm. The figure resembled a cross between a wolf and a human.

The werewolf stood on its hind legs and growled menacingly. Even though it only had one paw, it still had knife-sharp claws on it. You cowered in fear, your tails partially shielding you.

The slaver paused and paled noticeably. He tried to take a step forward, but just as he moved slightly, the werewolf bent over you and began growling. That was the last straw before the captain took his feet on his shoulders and ran screaming back towards the camp. 

The werewolf pulled back a little, stopped growling and sat down in front of you. He bent down and put his head in front of you so that his snout was less than 5 centimetres from your face. You didn't know if this was your last moment, so you wanted to look through his eyes one last time.

You concentrated and when you opened your eyes, you were looking at yourself. So your soul mate is a werewolf? It was the first thing that popped into your head. The second thing was, as you looked around, your eyes were now as golden as the wolf's. 

Of course, your eyes weren't normally that color. You had no idea that your eyes changed color every time you looked through his. You blinked and looked through your eyes again. The werewolf tilted his head to the side before nudging you lightly with his snout. And then again.

"Hey, that tickles," you laughed and tried to push him aside. He didn't resemble a dire werewolf at all now, but more like an overgrown puppy. His tongue stuck out and he looked like he was smiling. 

You sat up, wondering how you were going to get out of here. Your leg hurt like hell and you didn't have the strength to get anywhere safe in this state.

As if reading your mind, the werewolf stood up and began sniffing your injured leg before lightly poking you with his snout. You flinched in pain and just as quickly he flinched and looked at you with concern.

"I think I sprained it," you said, massaging your leg. It was such a pain that you stopped very soon. You looked up at the werewolf, who stood up and leaned down, taking you in one arm.

You didn't resist, since it probably wouldn't have been worth it anyway, and let him carry you. You held onto him around the neck for stability. His fur was surprisingly soft and reminded you of hair.

You soon realized that he was carrying you to the village where Shanks' pirates were anchored. The werewolf circled the village, probably to avoid causing unnecessary commotion and confusion, and carried you to a small camp where everyone was having a great time.

Besides the crackling of the fire, there was merry chatter and singing. Even there your journey did not end, and you went on until you reached the tents. There, the werewolf headed to one tent that was obviously bigger than all the others and there he laid you down on blankets.

You made yourself comfortable before thanking him. Not only did he save you, but he carried you to safety. At that, the werewolf left.

You weren't alone for less than 10 minutes when he returned with a man carrying a medical bag. The doctor was a fair-haired man with a ponytail who introduced himself as Hongo. 

Hongo then treated your leg and checked you for other injuries. He then asked you if you wanted anything to eat or drink, but you politely declined. You didn't think of any of that at the moment. You thanked him and the doctor left. The werewolf stayed with you this time.

You lay down in the blankets and he lay down next to you. You smiled at him and thanked him again. The werewolf poked you with his snout before he started licking your face.

Laughing, you pulled him away from you. Even now, he was looking at you with his tongue lolling out and his tail wagging contentedly. From this angle, he looked more like a wolf or an overgrown dog than ever before.

The next morning, you woke up alone in your tent. There was no sign of the werewolf anywhere, though you guessed it would be a normal human now.

A few minutes later, the local captain you recognized from previous introductions came in, balancing a tray of food in his hand.

The captain introduced himself as Shanks. He handed you the tray of food and it wasn't until you smelled the freshly baked bread that you realized how hungry you were. You thanked him and started to eat. Shanks watched you with a warm smile. When you finished eating, he gave you an offer you didn't expect.

"If you want, you can stay with me and my crew. I don't know how long we'll be here, but you're certainly welcome. Or if you want a ride to an island, just ask," he said, and you couldn't believe your ears. You agreed to join them. You had nowhere else to go, and more importantly, your soul mate was here. Somewhere among these pirates.

You felt like everyone in the crew had accepted you into their midst. The first few days, the captain himself took you in and introduced you to everyone.

You were surprised that his crew was like one big family. You didn't have to dance to survive anymore, but you still gave them little performances here and there. They all cheered and clapped for you.

During that time among them, you managed to figure out who the eyes you could see through belonged to. It belonged to none other than Shanks himself. You got the impression that you had piqued his interest from the very beginning, and everyone made fun of you for being his favorite. Despite all that, you decided to tell him.

You hadn't seen him all day, and even with his eyes you couldn't tell where he was. It wasn't until the evening that you found him by the booze barrels. He was drunk from the look of him. Even though it was almost every day.

"Shanks," you addressed him.

"Y/N, my rescue," he said cheerfully, and hugged you.

"What are you doing?" You asked, supporting him.

"Waiting for everything to stop spinning around. Although if that means being with you like this, I'm fine with it," he replied.

"There's something I want to tell you," you finally said. Shanks got slightly more serious and decided it would be better to sit down. You reached the beach, where you sat down on a fallen tree trunk. You were in the part where no one was right now, so you had privacy.

There you calmly told him about your fruit and that you could see through his eyes what he could see. Shanks was quiet for a moment and said nothing before he laughed. When he stopped, he looked at you with his best smile and stroked your cheek.

"So it looks like I have the most beautiful soulmate in the whole world," he said gently, catching you completely off guard. You hadn't even told him about soul mates. The red-haired pirate leaned in and kissed you awkwardly. You took him around the neck and followed his lead.

When you were done, you watched the sunset and moonrise together. All was well until the pirate began to fidget. You looked at him and noticed his eyes were tinged with gold.

"Y/N now that we're talking secrets... Just don't worry about anything, but I'm..." He began to explain, searching for the right words. As drunk as he was to do so, he wasn't very good at it.

"Werewolf?" You finished for him, and this time it was his turn to be surprised.

"How do you know?" he wondered. You just smiled and tapped the side of your eye. It looked like a stone had been dropped from his heart.

He was about to say something else when red fur began to grow all over his body and he collapsed into the sand. You watched like a horror movie as his bones cracked and he gradually turned into a werewolf.

"Shanks?" you asked with concern as he completely changed and just lay there for a moment. Shanks looked up at the sound of your voice and walked over to you, his ears to his head, and rested his head in your lap. 

You stroked his cheeks before your fingers moved down to his ears where you began to slowly scratch him. Shanks immediately relaxed and started wagging his tail. He really did look like an overgrown puppy. He melted so much under your touch that he fell to the ground. 

However, instead of sitting back up to you he rolled over onto his back and wiggled in a silent plea for a scratch. You knelt down beside him and began rubbing his stomach and chest. He wagged his tail contentedly, and you got the impression that his tongue was about to fall out of his mouth.

Pile 1

Tarot Cards: 7 of Pentacles, The Devil (in reverse), 5 of Cups (in reverse), Death, The Sun

Oracle Card: Clear Quartz: Get Crystal Clear

Hi, my dearest Pile 1's! Embark with me on a tantalizing journey as we unravel the mysteries of your future love's essence.

Imagine, if you will, a soul, steadfast and patient as the timeless mountains. This partner won't be swayed by fleeting passions. Instead, they cultivate a love as deep-rooted and enduring as ancient trees. Their patience, an emblem of their devotion, promises to wrap your union in the kind of love stories are written about.

But here's where the plot thickens: your love has danced with their shadows. Battling inner demons, they've emerged not only unscathed but profoundly transformed. These trials have only refined them, sculpting a lover who's grown by confronting their fears, forever evolving in the dance of life's rhythms.

With a heart that's weathered storms, they've mastered the art of turning pain into power. Past sorrows don't weigh them down; instead, they’re fueled by hope, gazing ever forward. And oh, the brilliance they exude! Like the radiant sun breaking through a morning mist, their optimism is infectious, illuminating even the darkest corners with their zest for life.

Now, a whisper from the cosmos, embodied in the essence of Clear Quartz, reveals their crystalline clarity. They see through life's murky waters with an unclouded vision, and their unwavering honesty promises to be the bedrock of your shared journey.

Wrapping up our tale, enchanting Pile 1's, the universe has scripted for you a love story with a partner who’s resilient, optimistic, and pure of heart.

They ignite the world around them, turning aspirations into reality. Their charisma, a force unto itself, promises to enthrall and captivate, making hearts race and spirits soar.

But in the shadows of this burning flame, there have been times when the light dimmed. The weight of setbacks, perhaps lost battles with destiny, momentarily caused them to falter, questioning the path they had chosen. Yet, these trials didn't break them; instead, they emerged, their resilience shining even brighter.

Amidst life's juggling act, they might occasionally teeter, struggling to find equilibrium amidst a whirlwind of responsibilities. But it's this dance on life's tightrope that crafts them into an empathetic and tender-hearted soulmate.

Diving deeper, past scars reveal tales of deception they might have endured, crafting barriers of caution around their heart. Encounters with treachery have sharpened their discernment, fortifying them with a wisdom that promises to shield your bond with care.

A whisper from the cosmos, crystallized in the essence of turquoise, sings praises of their commitment to well-being. Body and soul, mind and spirit, they treasure holistic health, inspiring you to bask in the glow of well-being too.

To sum up our voyage, enchanting Pile 2's, destiny has charted a course with a lover whose passion burns bright, whose trials have forged a resilient spirit, and whose commitment to wellness promises to nourish both heart and soul.

Yet, there's more. This lover brings with them tales of countless horizons crossed, dreams manifested, and passions realized. A connoisseur of life's experiences, their spirit is imbued with achievements, and they dance through life with a purpose that's as infectious as it is profound.

Amidst this whirlwind of adventure, there's a grounding force—a beacon of tradition, moral fortitude, and unwavering standards. In their embrace, you'll find solace, for their quest for truth and wisdom promises a haven of shared values and deeper connections.

Envision a heart, generously pulsating with love and balance, an embodiment of altruism and equitability. Whether in wealth, affection, or time, they believe in the harmony of giving and receiving. This soul, blessed with both prosperity and the innate desire to uplift others, promises to be your anchor, ensuring both of you thrive.

And as the sun breaks through the clouds, revealing the glistening Sunstone, know this: your future love basks in life's simple pleasures, radiating positivity that's nothing short of magnetic.

To tie our tale together, mesmerizing Pile 3's, Destiny has penned a love saga with a lover both transformative and stable, brimming with purpose yet generous of heart, driven yet delightfully joyous. As this narrative unfolds, anticipate a dance of souls—twirling, growing, and shining under the benevolent gaze of the Sunstone.

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished Ch1 Premise

Elegance, grace, and beauty. That is what made up someone's worth where she was from. But perhaps it was her kindness that was the downfall of her life. After all no good deed goes unpunished.

(Warnings for yandere themes, mentioned entertainment district and spicy stuff but it will STAY sfw, Kid's in cannon killing streak and violence, maybe some cussing, and kidnapping.

Tagging @punks-never-die205 @feiatjjk

@karmadglory @swampstew

Remember if you want to be added to the taglist lemme know.

I apologize if I write Kid or his crew OOC in this. I only wrote for Kid like one other time. Also apologies for the inaccuracy of anything. I'll research everything in One Piece as accurately as possible. I'm only planning on this to have four parts so bare with me.)

The waves crashed against the solid wood of the nightmare that tainted the seas with its blight. The dull voyage towards it's next destination undisclosed to the masses until it was too late. Until the cries of the victims dammed to endure the blight's upcoming wrath soared throughout the heavens. The air impure of the smoke from hellfire that ravaged the land and homes of the peaceful innocents that could flee in terror and watch in ever growing shock and fear as the Red Devil laughed his cries of mania.

'Pillage. Plunder. Take. Leave not even a penny of value behind.'

That was the unspoken code for his existence and by extension the very existence of his hellish crew. Each one as deadly and hellish as their Red Devil of a leader however no one could compare to the wrath of the leader himself. That's why he was feared far more than the trickling members who followed him into battle. 

'Take what you want. Dam anyone else who stands in the way. We are the best of the worst generation.'

The faint scent of smoke still  festered from the clothes on their backs from the latest of the hellborns' victims. Consuming everything in their path that wasn't stolen or rescued from their grasp by the few lucky victims that managed to get away from the scorching flames and weapons the devil's wielded. For those who survived lived to tell the newest horror stories of the blight.

The blight known around the world as the Victoria Punk.

A ship lead by the devil captain and his band of murderers and thieves. Thousands of lives changed forever for the worst by a single vessel.

The vessel carried on into the night. The wind pushing it towards the closest destination to endure their presence. The sour wind was filled with the cheers of the victorious thieves celebrating their latest tragedy. The decks filled with the thundering of footsteps and murmuring of excited voices as they all exchanged words and passed around the rewards of their disaster. 

THUD!

The murmuring was short lived when a large wooden chest was just dropped in the middle of the deck at the feet of two large boots. Two laughing men eagerly grabbing at the top to pry it open for the mostly blank face of the one who watched them. After all-

Everyone knows that the Captain has first pick of the best plunder. 

A metallic sound was heard as a lock snapped. Wood creaked as the top was pried open. And moonlight glowed from silver to gold. Ah. A wondrous abundance it was. The sight of gold bedazzled in the moonlight was always a sight to behold. Never got old. A gasp of awe passed around the deck at the sight of cold and countless gems. Scattered greens and reds signalled the presence of rubies and emeralds while the clear ones told them that diamonds were in the mix. As much as greedy hands wanted to nab the precious loot, the unspoken code that the Captain would happily toss whoever dared defy him into the ocean for a swim. 

So all watched in bated breathes as footsteps approached the chest with a frown. 

The glittery gold shining off from the moonlit gold. In their glitter the many reflections of Amber eyes as they leaned down to gaze upon the shimmer and shine. From the chest a single jewelry was taken. A gold chained necklace swayed from where a finger and thumb gripped it's base. A single large pink spinel gem sparkled and swayed, reflected in the amber pupil that brought it close to inspect it's sparkle. Eyes narrowed looking as it swayed almost hypnotically.. before red lips split in a wide grin. 

"Heh. And to think they were planning on using this to fund that new little marine base. They should've known better than to try and build that in the same area as pirates!" A bout of loud laughter filled the air from the crew. The necklace tossed to the side into the lucky excited hands of a greedy pirate. "I think we earnt ourselves a little reward after this."

"Whaddya mean by that, Kid?"

The secondary voice was calm and collected despite the amount of blood that spilt from the killer's hands just a mere few hours ago. The name being ironic of his deeds.  Despite the calm demeanor by the curious tilt of his head one could tell he was curious as to what the red headed captain was thinking of. 

The fearsome man of blood red hair turned to him with that sadistically pleased grin of his. "I'm talking about where we're currently positioned, Killer." His brow raised. "If we set sail for the Flower Capital right this second, about when we'll get there?"

The blonde masked man him in a clear tone of thought, calculating carefully before the tilted head turned back up. "If the winds keep going like this and we go now, then we should get there either around sundown or nightfall tomorrow. But why would we set sail for there?"

"Ain't it obvious, Kil? I think you deserve a reward for the hard work we all put in! Don't you agree?" A flurry of agreement from the jeerers was immediately as an arm raised pointing out a specific direction. "Turn the ship northwest and set full speed ahead. IM TAKING YOU LUCKY BASTARDS TO THE ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT!"

An uproar was immediate. The promise of women, booze, and women was bestowed upon them all. A pair of men in the cheering crowd even embracing each other in the excitement.

"Is that a wise choice, Kid?," the blonde man asked slowly crossing his arms and looking at the smiling Captain. "That place is more corrupt than some waters of the sea, and crime runs rampant."

"Sounds like my kind of place."

"What I'm trying to say is maybe we shouldn't ask for more trouble after destroying the makings of a marine base," he explained calmly, "That place is full of criminals and I heard you're not even allowed to live there unless you got money or you're in service to some rich prick. Your bounty might draw some crazy out of the woodworks desperate for cash."

A broad arm was slung over his shoulders and the blonde knew that it was pointless to argue right that second. "Then we got nothin' to worry about. We got the funds, and if we need more we'll just gladly take some of the graciously donated 'funds' from those rich fucks. If anyone tries to get in our way ... We'll our night might be a little more fun is all. Plus I have three good things that's gonna convince you otherwise."

"*sigh* And those would be?"

"Booze, food, and women." He held up three fingers as he lifted off the subjects of convincing.

Despite the mask he could see the convinced look that Killer had before he sighed once more. "Fine but let me just say now that I told you so if something goes wrong."

"Keyword, Kil. IF it goes wrong. Which it-"

"Don't finish that sentence and jinx yourself."

Despite the warning of the longtime trusted friend, the Captain did nothing but pat the faithful companion on the back before turning his attention back towards the chest that still laid bare and untouched, as everyone knew the rules in place by authority and hierarchy of the ship. The sweet jingling of coins against jewelry and gemstone sounded out as his hands dipped down into the board and threatened to spill onto the deck as they slipped between his fingers from hands pulled back. After all the Captain ALWAYS gets best pick of the spoils. 

"To the victor goes the spoils."

Mystery of Siren Cove

Siren!Ran Haitani x F!Reader x Siren!Rindou Haitani

Rating: Mature

Contains: blood, mild descriptions of gore, pirate slang, kidnapping, mentions of wanting to breed you, placed under the siren spell, dubcon?

Summary: you arrive to port with Baji, hearing rumors of the deadly ghost ship the notorious Haitani Brothers sail. Despite Baji's warnings, you wish to uncover the secrets behind the disappearing crew and gain the bounty on the Haitanis' heads.

Minors DNI

This is darker than the fics I've wrote recently so read with caution

♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧

"Baji, look! It's that ship! We've found them!" You screamed under your breath. There it was, the signature flag of the Haitanis. Rumor has it, they have it tattooed on their bodies. "The Haitanis are here!"

He rolled his eyes. "Better not be thinking what me thinks ye be thinking."

You sigh, heading into the tavern. "Yeah, yeah, whatever."

♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧

The Haitani Ghost Ship, the nickname many pirates have given their vessel. Anyone who encounters said ship never sees a single soul on board. No crew, no treasure, nothing. Just a pool of blood surrounding it. Worst yet, the brothers always returned with no remorse for the dead. A simple case of mutiny would be their answer.

Despite the tales, plenty of pirates alike still choose to board the Haitani's ship. Who knows if it's blatant curiosity or desperation that sends them to the ship of death. One thing is for sure, the brothers know how to manipulate plenty of pirates with their sweet voices.

A man slammed his pint down on the wooden table and snarked with a warning. "Ye shouldn't go thar lass or ye be next ship to Davey Jones."

"Bucko's right. Those Haitanis are the Scourg of the Seven Seas." Baji nods in agreement, taking swig of rum.

You sigh, "but Baji...I've a mission. Ye must listen!"

Baji slams his glass down, frustrated at your stubborness. "Ye mustn't! They're devils. Ye be eaten alive!" He furrowed his brows at you, worried at what'll become of you.

You turn your head towards the bar. The youngest brother, Rindou, was currently guzzling down bottles of rum with some fellow pirates in a game. If they lost, they'd be joining the next voyage on the Haitani. The oldest, Ran, was simply flirting and taking pirates and wenches to a room upstairs. He was known to bed a many at port. With those handsome features of his, droopy violet eyes, well groomed locks, and expensive attire for a mere pirate, even you could fall for his charm if you didn't have your head on straight.

"Baji, listen," you turn your head back towards him and sigh deeply, "I need to do this. Lives are at stake here. Why are thine men risking lives for the sunken treasure at Siren Cove?"

He sighed and grasped hands with his shakey ones. "Please...stay..."

"Baji..." You roll your eyes. "Please, I can handle it. When I've returned with their bounty, we'll be rich!"

He shook his head in disbelief. "There's no talking ye out if this aye? Fine...go on, ride the cursed ship."

"Sorry...I need to do this...for everyone's sake..." You lowered your gaze to the table and frowned.

Baji knew there was no talking you out of this now. He stood up and gave you a small smile. "At least...let me buy ye a farewell gift."

"Thanks Baji."

♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧

"Aye, ye scalawags, it's time to board!" Yelled Rindou.

About thirty pirates made their way to the Haitani's ship, seemingly in a daze. You managed to sneak your way into the crowd boarding, headed directly for the cargo to hide. In the dark underbelly below deck, you found some crates to hide behind.

"All hands on deck! Lower the sails! Raise the anchors! Onward to Siren Cove maties!" Ran ordered the crew.

Hours pass being rocked back and forth on the steady waters when the ship went quiet except for the beautiful melody of a song unlike any you have heard before. Such lovely velvety pipes in the duet. Then it hit you. A duet....

The ship began to rock as the crew jumped into the sea below, hypnotized by the song. Sirens were near. The moment they heard the tune and jumped overboard, their fates were sealed. Suddenly, you heard many screams from the waters below. Scratching at the ship from fellow pirates making sad attempts to climb back on deck but with the wood all slick and wet, they couldn't. You dared to take a peek out the porthole next to you. The waters surrounding the ship were an absolute bloodbath of human flotsam. Seeing bits of human remains floating above the tides sent your stomach churning.

"Oh...oh god...fuck...sorry Baji...ye were right...." You whimpered.

The boards above you creaked when you heard the scuffing of boots. You felt a cramp in your leg and went to stretch it out, only to knock over a bottle someone had left on a crate.

Fuck

"Shh, Rindou. Did you hear?"

"Hmm, what?"

"We have a straggler."

"Oh?" Rindou sniffs the air, noticing a scent below deck. "I smell something, something good." He snickers.

Ran sniffs as they move below deck. "Doth mine nose deceive me or is there a wee lass on board? Oh lass! Lassie! Come on out."

"Nothing to fear. We won't hurt ye."

Their footsteps drew closer. You clasped your hands over your mouth, attempting to slow your breathing and prevent a sound to leave your throat. However, you knew they'd inevitably find you if they truly are sirens.

The crates were moved in front of you and you squeaked, kicking your feet on the floor to gather purchase to scoot away from them.

"Ah, such a pretty thing ye are lass," Ran sneared, crouching down to meet your level as he grasped your chin with his long, thin fingers.

"Yes, such beauty ye have. We couldn't possibly eat ye except a few nibbles." Rindou laughed.

"No...nononono!!! Let me go! Please!!!" You cried but it was no use. Ran had already hoisted you over his shoulders while you pounded your fists on his back and kicking your feet around, screaming in his ear.

"Haha! So feisty. Oh, how much fun ye'll be tonight." Ran chuckled as you struggled in his hold.

They brought you on deck, Ran still holding you close. You gave up on punching his back, catching your breath when you noticed he was taking you to the plank. "No! No, please! Don't!"

Rindou followed behind and snickered at you. "Aww, is the wee lass scared of sleeping with the fishes?"

"Hush, Rin-Rin. Don't scare the lass too much, yeah?"

He sighed and crossed his arms, "fiiiine."

"Now then lass, ye ready to be a changed woman tonight? Promise, we'll protect ye."

You furrowed your brows at the sickening sweet words leaving his velvety soft lips...wait...velvety soft? When you came to, his lips were pressed to yours as you both fell into the sea below.

"Mmm...MMMMM!" You screamed behind your lips as Ran laughed, taking you into an underwater cave surrounded with sunken ships and treasure. "Oh, darling. Doth thee know the kiss of a siren protects ye from drowning?"

Rindou then pressed his lips to yours for a taste himself. "No need to fret lass, we'll take good care of ye."

"Yes, the perfect vessel for our offspring, no?"

Your eyes became saucers as you lost consciousness.

Once you awoke, you were placed on a soft bed of silken sheets fit for a queen, stripped of everything you were wearing. "Where—"

Slender fingers were placed on your lips. "Shhhh, don't say a word darling." Ran whispered and licked the shell of your ear, sending shivers down your spine as your breath hitched. "Ye'll be safe here. No one will harm a hair on ye," Rindou smiled with his violet eyes darkened with lust. He licked his lips and began kissing up your neck, making you gasp as you fell under their spell. "Mmm, ready to be a mother, lass?"

"To be ours....

.......forever?"

Under the haze of honeyed voices reaching your ears, you whispered a soft yes.

"Then, we're yours forever, darling."

"And you're ours."

[myymi]

Sails hummed to himself as he carefully wiped down his sword, perched atop the banister of the Angel Voyage 2.0’s crow nest. One foot rested atop the railing as the other dangled, swaying along with the gentle rocks from the ocean.

He didn't really realize how much he missed the relaxing waves as they carried the ship along the surface of the water. Sure, the fight was fun while it lasted, but it was also incredibly draining.

He could tell the others felt that way too. Dread and Black Rose didn't even take a moment to explain the role switch between them, leaving the crew clueless as they went straight to bed.

He frowned as his neck throbbed painfully once again, pausing his cleaning to rub it. He had been apparently nicked pretty badly by the bomb he and Mangey built, the back of his neck was bleeding quite a lot.

Thankfully, the other fox was able to catch it before he'd lost too much blood.

It was strange, talking with someone who was basically himself but still so wildly different. He liked Mangey, though.

Nine, however, is a different story.

He didn't dislike him, but he wasn't the biggest fan either. He could understand his frustrations and motivations though.

Sometimes he feels like he would've fallen down a similar path had Batten never found him.

“What're ye doing?” Sails’ ear perked at the voice, turning to find Batten as she landed in the crow’s nest. Speak of the devil.

“Jus’ giving this a good scrub.” The fox shrugged, holding up the sword.

The bat's eyes were trained on the kit’s other paw, however. Sails tensed when he realized she had that worried glint in her eyes again, immediately making his paw drop from his neck.

“Ye feelin’ okay?” She asked, walking over so she could lean over the banister, squishing down the fox's leg.

Sails rolled his eyes, “M’fine, Batten.” He mumbled, tossing the rag he was using to clean his sword to the deck before resheathing the blade.

Batten frowned at him before turning her gaze to the ocean, “I haven't seen you fly since ye set off that bomb of yours.” She said, using her finger to trace gentle, miscellaneous patterns on the younger’s leg.

The kit bit his lip at that, also turning to look at the sea. The sun was beginning to set, “Just tired.”

They were silent for a few minutes after that before Batten broke it with a sigh, “Ye aren't good at bluffing, Sails.” She turned to look back into his eyes at that, a worried frown still tugging in her lips.

Sails could feel a frown of his own start to form, but he didn't respond.

“Look, Sails,” The bat looked down as she tried to work out her sentence, “I know I ain't the best at showin’ it, but ye know I care, right?”

The kit’s brow furrowed, “‘Course I know that, Batten. Ye raised me.” He said, turning to look at her.

“I know.” Batten sighed and looked up to meet the younger’s eyes, “I just need ye to know you can talk ta me when things are rough. And trust me, I know when they get rough for ya.”

Sails fell silent once again, unsure of how to respond to that. He knew Batten cared for him, but he always felt that asking her for anything more was asking too much.

She saved his life. She raised him even though she didn't have to. Sails knew he already owed her so much, he couldn't possibly ask for more favors.

Instead of answering her, Sails hesitantly pushed himself into her arms for a hug. He nuzzled his head into the crook of her neck, allowing his tails to wrap around her body.

Batten, with almost as much hesitance, wrapped her arms gently around the cub. She placed her chin atop his head, closing her eyes as she let him soak up the affection.

They ended up staying in the crow’s nest for the rest of the day, snuggling up to watch the sun set before they drifted off to sleep together.

Their bond may seem strange to outsiders, but it was perfect to them. And that's all that mattered.

A Fishy Business Rewrite

Attacked and almost killed by sea devils, I manage to escape and hide in a cave only to be found by something... not quite human. Too weak to get away and with the beasts that wanted to eat me waiting outside, this landwalker kidnaps me, taking me to his ship. This is where I find that there are not one but two of these metal creatures.

And what’s going on with all these storms?

A Lucky Charm by Existenial_Crisis

  archiveofourown.org/works/55609099/chapters/141143251

Sailors tend to be superstitious, and sailors of the stars are no different. It’s tradition to bring a good luck charm with them when they go on a long voyage for safety.

Unfortunately, that means me.

And I think my luck ran out.

Warmer Waters by ClaysBots

  archiveofourown.org/works/56008525/chapters/142246252

Another Great Day of Saving the Sharks by Kezibun

  archiveofourown.org/works/56002465/chapters/142229113

There are many benefits of being a marine biologist, one of which you enjoy is researching Mer-creatures, more spesifically Celestials.

Celestial Mers also known as The Sun and Moon Sea monsters, are fish mimicking mer creatures, one active at day the other at night, they usually pair up in a mutual symbiotic relationship they rely so heavily on eachother that now it's almost imposible for one to survive without the other. So what happens when one is seporated from it's daycare? An impending rescue mission of course.

Celestial Scales byAnxiouscr0w

  archiveofourown.org/works/56163733/chapters/142673113

A hotspring surrounded by dense jungle, only two miles from Baywind village, acts as a safe space for you after long days. With each passing day over the years, you've felt like you're being watched, eventually being approached by a small group of merfolk. One wants to befriend you, one would die if it meant killing you too... and neither of them are telling the truth about the pair of eyes in the fissure.

When his sailors caught a Mer in nets, Eclipse, the infamous Capitain of the Equinox, knew that he was going to be rich. It wasn't every day that a specimen of the Mer like you was captured, and he knew he could sell you at a more than fair price.

What the pirate captain didn't know was that your arrival, in addition to the promise of gold, would bring him something he'd never dreamed of.

Whether it was because of your personality, your beauty, your intelligence or your species, Eclipse knew that his life would never be the same again because of you, whether it was because of the money you were going to bring him or the feelings you were inevitably making him develop...

Update on the Childhood Friends Doffy x Reader

We have little Gladius. Little Gladius is the best boy. I remember reading somewhere (might be a Gladius-focused one shot fic) that he wears earmuffs because he has sensitive hearing because he grew up in a warzone and the bombs just made him either half-deaf or highly sensitive to loud sounds to the point he gets terrible migraines if people yell so I decided to implement that.

He shall get a hedgehog cake from Reader. And some pink earplugs. Little Gladius is great at shooting but again, his ears are sensitive so it's just Doffy talking about how to help little Gladius be a menace to society.

17-year-old Doffy picking up Gladius from the warfront during a voyage and like "yes, a child who can blow up stuff but also is sensitive to the sounds of the aforementioned explosions blowing up stuff requires, perfect, he's joining the crew. Also, he loves punk clothes, yes, he'll be my little bodyguard. We'll be fashion icons."

I can just imagine Doffy lifting up little Gladius like Rafiki did Simba.

Little Gladius has trauma response to explosions but it's a good thing someone sane - cough Reader cough - is there to help him out. Doffy is just like "just put earmuffs on him so he can't hear the explosions at all, fufu, I'm a genius. 😜"

(insert Reader facepalming)

Here is some kid Gladius.

“You’re cute, Gladius. You remind me of a hedgehog.” you said, smiling warmly at the boy.

Gladius blinked, perplexed. “What’s a hedgehog?”

Your heart broke, your smile faltering. You noticed Doflamingo’s smile vanished, too, his lips downturned.

“How about you practice your reading on the menu?” suggested Doflamingo, grabbing one of the menus, handing them to the little boy. The menu was bigger than Gladius’s head. “Take a seat at one of the tables while I order us something.”

Gladius nodded, a determined look to his eyebrows and eyes, taking it very seriously. “Yes, Young Master!”

Gladius gave a little bow to Doflamingo and you, then went to take a seat at one of the round dinner tables, climbing up on the wooden chair. You couldn’t help but raise your eyebrows at the manners he displayed. Doflamingo must be teaching him how to behave.

“I found him on a warring island two days ago,” said Doflamingo, resting his cheek on his hand. You could see his gaze was on Gladius despite not seeing his eyes. “He ate the Pop-Pop Fruit because he was starving, so he’s a puncture human now.” He snickered. “Ironic, really.”

“Why?” you asked, worry building up inside you.

“He has sensitive hearing,” said Doflamingo. “If you yell, he gets a migraine. When he hears a boom, he flinches and covers his ears. All the bomb explosions messed up his hearing. He can’t tolerate high decibels. It’s a bit of a problem, since his Devil Fruit causes explosions. The moment he puts on earmuffs, he’s fine, but he can’t hear anything I say while he’s wearing them.”

Hope you have a nice holiday, Snail! ❤️ Also, thank you and everyone for all the support for this, I am writing slowly but surely and when the first chapter is done, I'll definitely link it. For now I'm just writing the ideas down as they come while working out the childhood arc itself.

Lots of love ❤️❤️

I AM SCREAMING. I love this so much 😭😭. Doting daddy Doffy. Where do I sign up? What a beautiful read to start my day with 🥹🥹🥹.

Can I just have him? Please? 🫣. I love him.

//istg I need to actually start getting my ass in gear in designing the Trials of St. Emilio-

I might just. Throw ideas in the wind, idk. Cappn and I still haven't decided what the trials entail.

We just know WHERE they are in the world, and in the Canon Story, who gets them.

In the original RP, they're kinda video gamey puzzles or battles or some wacky Indiana Jones/ The Mummy nonsense in some mindfuckery pocket dimension of sort, but we're trying to move away from that.

In plotting with people who try to find the Seven Keys of St. Emilio, we may get something.

So... don't mind if what I throw at you if you hope to take on the Voyage seems weird and tacked on, because I'm still figuring things out LMAO.

When the Stars Align

Tides of Memories part 27

I had a lot of fun with this part, I feel like I reconnected with Julian and Altheia again, and moved the story on to a good place. It's the first of three climaxes to the past two years of work, with shenanigans and smut along the way. I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out :)

Summary

After an early birthday party in the newly-renovated rooftop garden, Julian and Altheia set sail for Nevivon aboard their new ship. But before the end of their voyage, the stars align, and Julian is able to put everything he has learnt about the sea, the stars, magic and himself, towards a spell that could change their lives forever.

This is effectively a loooonnnggg rewrite of the 'one month later' scene in Julian's route's epilogue, if you squint.

Excerpt

“I should be wearing something more… wizard-y,” he said as he worked.  “Don’t you think?” Altheia raised an amused eyebrow.  “‘Wizard-y’?” “Yes!  Like a robe.  Bright and gaudy colours.  Maybe a hat.” He smiled as he heard Altheia’s laugh.  “Brightly coloured robes and hats aren’t a requirement for magic use, my love.” “All the fortune tellers and magicians doing tricks in Goldgrave seem to think they are.” As Julian talked, he crossed the deck back to the desk and took the bottles of ink and four clean quills from the drawer. “That’s just for show,” Altheia said, humouring him.  “They’re just trying to attract customers, make a show of it.” “I suppose I don’t need to make a show when it’s just you and I, hmm?” “And I!” That voice, lilting and velvety, startled Julian so hard he nearly dropped the ink bottles.  He hurried back to where he’d laid out the papers, set the bottles down, and then leaned forward onto the stern rail.  There, narrow head raised a little out of the water, was the serpentine form of the Knight of Cups.  

“Oh!”  Julian exclaimed.  “It’s you!” “It is!” Something like a grin pulled the Knight’s lipless, jade-green mouth.  “I couldn’t keep my curiosity at bay, I’m afraid.” Julian suspected that wasn’t really the reason for the minor Arcana’s appearance.  “How are you here?  Shouldn’t you be in the Cups realm?  I thought the Arcana couldn’t travel between realms?” “Questions, questions!”  The Knight twirled in a circle as he chuckled.  “Did you forget?  Only the Major Arcana are so restricted.  The rest of us can travel as we please.  My realm is wherever there is water.  That’s why you’re here!  In the sea!  Well… not in the sea.  Floating on it.  But close enough.” Beside the Knight, two purple-blue betta fish the size of Julian’s torso suddenly jumped out of the water in an arc; Julian recognised them. “The Two of Cups, is it?” “Yes!  They’re here, too.” Julian thought back to a few weeks ago, when he’d pulled the Two of Cups from Asra’s tarot deck while travelling in a carriage with him.  Asra told him it represented the bond between Julian and Altheia, and realised that the strength of the bond was, in effect, the result of what had amounted to a deal between each other when they’d confessed their love for each other while chained by the Devil.  He realised then that neither the Knight nor the Two were there out of simple curiosity.   “The magic you seek relies on emotion,” the Knight said breezily.  “Yours and Altheia’s.  That’s why you’re here, on a ship, close to the realm of Cups, the realm of emotion.  Do you see?” Julian stared for a moment into the golden eyes of the Arcana.  “I… do.  I think.” The eel-like form of the Knight rose up out of the water, enough to be almost at eye level with Julian.  His gaze flicked down Julian’s body from head to foot and back again, and in an almost melancholic tone he said, “A shirt and trousers?  I would have gone for something with a little more… panache.” “Something wizard-y?  Brightly coloured robes?” “Yes!  And maybe a hat.” Julian turned and looked back at Altheia with a ‘told you so’ grin. 

The rest is on AO3 :)

"You've the devil's own courage, aye? But then, ye always did."

I tried to smile at him, but my lips trembled.

"What about you? How do you know what I'm like?" You don't know what I've been doing for the last twenty years, either. I might be a horrible person, for all you know!"

The smile on his lips moved into eyes, lighting them with humor. "I suppose ye might, at that. But, d'ye know, Sassenach--I dinna think I care?"

I stood looking at him for another minute, then heaved a deep sigh that popped a few more stitches in my gown.

"Neither do I."

Three demons are enough - Mihawk, Shanks, Buggy

As a child, you ate the devil's fruit, allowing you to see what others could not. See demons. 

It happened a little after you befriended two boys who were a few years older than you were. However, they took you in for the time and taught you a lot of things. Plus, you had many adventures with them. 

But that was in the past, many years ago. Now you were a runaway. A pirate with your crew. You even had a pact with a demon. 

But now you traveled without him, since you had a fight. The demon was temperamental and something similar was afoot. But he was never gone for very long. Always just for a few days. You wore his mark and the symbol of your agreement on your shoulder in bright blue. 

After a long sail, you and the ship finally reached the island where you decided to stay for a few days. You wanted the crew to rest and regain their strength for the next voyage. 

You were walking through the streets thinking about your next steps, where to sail, what you would need, etc. when you passed a man. Normally, there would be nothing interesting about this if the man wasn't a demon. 

Plus, it wasn't like you saw a demon every third step. No, you didn't. They rarely appeared among humans, and most of the time it didn't mean anything good. 

As you passed the may, your gazes met for a moment and you looked into his golden eyes. That eye contact lasted for a second or so before you went your separate ways. Or so you thought. 

The demon turned behind you and watched you as you walked on. After all, it wasn't every day that a mere mortal got to know what he really was. 

As you walked through the city, you noticed several wanted posters with your image on them. You put your cape over your head to make yourself more recognizable, but it was too late. 

At your heels were bounty hunters, trying to appear inconspicuous, who followed you almost across the city, waiting for the right moment. 

You wanted to shake them off, and when you turned the corner, you took off running. Just as you crossed the street, however, three more hunters confronted you and prevented you from escaping. You were trapped. Nothing you couldn't handle. 

On the other side, you were cut off by the ones following you, and you were at a distinct disadvantage. You were ready to defend yourself when someone else joined you. That someone walked calmly up to you and you recognized the demon from before. But the others saw him as an ordinary human. 

The bounty hunters didn't care at all and rather pounced on you. Before they could get close enough to hurt you, however, the demon drew his black sword and within moments, almost everyone was lying dead on the ground. 

The demon then walked over to you, and at one point you were worried about what it was going to do. You were kind of expecting an attack or whatever, just not that he tipped his hat to you and took your hand gently.

"They won't bother you anymore," he said, kissing the back of your hand. 

"I... thank you..." you finally said, since you had no idea what to do. This was the first time this had ever happened to you. Finally, you slipped your hand out of his and thanked him once more before walking away. The demon didn't hold you in any way and just watched you like a hawk. 

Ever since that incident, you felt like the demon was watching you every step of the way. He made no secret of his presence, but he never once sought contact with you. He just watched you like a predator watches its prey. 

You stayed in the city for a few more days before the posse log finally set. During those days, you often explored the city, and of course, the demon was on your tail. Sure, it had a certain advantage that no bounty hunter could get at you.

One day, however, you'd had enough and decided to talk to the demon. You headed in his direction, wondering why he was following you. 

You caught him off guard and he measured you with his gaze before answering you. He didn't know many people like you who could just see his kind. Almost no one, actually. You were interesting in his eyes. That was why he wanted to protect you and find out more. 

But you weren't sure that was a good idea. You already had a pact with a demon who was jealous of even ordinary people. 

The golden-eyed demon understood your reticence and instead asked if he could travel by your side. You had already agreed to this and so Mihawk, as you later found out the demon's name, joined your crew. Or rather, your bodyguard of sorts. 

As before, Mihawk accompanied you every step of the way, only now he walked by your side. He behaved like a perfect gentleman. But you had no idea that was his way of courting.

Once again, you set out to sea with Mihawk at your side. You were in your cabin studying the charts when Mihawk brought you a cup of tea. You thanked him and continued to study the maps. 

The demon remained there, however, and when you asked him if he needed anything he got down on one knee in front of you and took your hand. He then asked if you would make a pact with him and at that moment he revealed his true form. 

Since it had been a while since he had travelled with you and the demon you had the original pact with was still nowhere in sight. Moreover, you had slowly developed a soft spot for him. For that reason, you finally agreed. 

You saw the look on his face as his eyes lit up at that and he smiled contentedly before he brought your hand to his mouth and kissed the back of your hand. A dark red demonic contract mark appeared where he kissed you, the center of it golden. 

You didn't cover the demonic marks on your body aboard your ship, but when there was a risk of someone else seeing them, you covered them. For the first mark, you were lucky it was on your shoulder where no one would normally see it. And you covered Mihawk's mark with your gloves. 

From this point on, the demon spent a lot more time with you, and was at almost every step you took, being much more attentive than before. 

Everything on board had sort of calmed down, and you had some time to do your work. You studied the maps and traced your route while Mihawk sat in the opposite chair, reading the latest newspaper. 

Among the maps, you noticed a rolled-up piece of parchment that already looked old. You picked it up and unfolded it. The ink was smudged in places, but it looked like a map of an island. 

The demon put the paper down, walked over to you and peered over your shoulder. He had a bad feeling about this. He felt a strange familiar demonic energy in the paper. 

You turned to him and decided you believed him. You were about to fold the scroll again when you touched the drawn island. 

The moment your fingers touched the map, everything around you blurred and it was as if you were inside the map. You were standing on what you thought was a deserted island until you heard a voice. 

You followed the sound further and very soon found that the island was inhabited by demons. But they were very friendly and led you to their captain. He was a red-haired demon who was very jovial and immediately invited you to have a drink. He seemed to light up when he saw you. 

But you declined his offer. You weren't going to drink until you got back to your ship. The demon pouted at your refusal, but there wasn't much he could do about it. All the while, he was talking to you like an old friend. As if you'd known each other since childhood. He even revealed that he was sorry you didn't remember him. But he was sure you would remember. 

But you didn't understand, at least not until he started telling you stories from his childhood and what you had been through during that time. At his words, you remembered everything he told you. 

"Shanks...?" You finally asked. At that moment the demon was overjoyed, as it was really him and he was glad you remembered. Shanks pulled you into his lap and put one arm around you. 

Slowly you lowered your defenses and began to reminisce about old adventures and what had happened during the time you hadn't seen each other. You even accepted the bucket of beer he offered you. 

You ended up having so much fun with Shanks and reminiscing and completely forgot about time and your original plan to get back to the ship. You were having a good time with the demon. 

Shanks was just in the middle of telling you about one of his stories at sea, when other members of his crew ran up to you, that another demon had appeared on the island. As soon as he heard that, the good humor drained from his expression and he immediately grew serious, ready to protect what was his. 

Shanks was ready to attack when Mihawk appeared among the demons. The other demons were making room for him to reach you. You were surprised at what he was doing there, and you had no idea who he was in the first place.

It wasn't until you blinked a few times and focused that you realized who it was. The hand with the mark on it was burning you pleasantly. At that moment, you also remembered what you were originally doing there and how you got there. You felt as if you'd forgotten it all in a moment. 

You immediately bypassed Shanks and walked over to Mihawk, to whom you apologized. You had no idea how you managed to forget him. However, he looked at you with complete understanding, knowing full well the effect the red-haired demon had on mortals. And to prevent a repeat of what had happened before, he stood protectively in front of you. His long black tail brushed against your ankle. 

"Hawkeye? What are you doing here? Long time no see. Come have a drink with me. To happy reunions. First Y/N and now you!" Shanks smiled warmly, recognizing his old friend and offering him a bucket of beer as well. 

The golden-eyed demon, however, insisted that you must return to the ship and therefore refused. Shanks tried to invite him a few more times, but he ended up letting you go with no problem, but with one small condition. He wanted to come with you. Which was fine with you as captain, especially since he was an old friend. 

You were quite shocked to return to the ship, and the two demons automatically stood protectively in front of you. The ship was in complete chaos. Body parts were flying amongst the members, and from a distance you could already hear the voice of the demon you had your first pact with. 

The clown's face formed in front of you as it noticed you and several emotions seemed to change in an instant. Joy at seeing you, shock at seeing another demon, and anger since he knew both of them so well. 

"Buggy!" Shanks smiled cheerfully at him. He was glad to see the clown after a long time and wanted to greet him properly. The clown, however, avoided him in an archway and took offence. How dare you invite two more demons onto the ship when you were his? And ones far more powerful than he was?

You were slowly growing tired of his talk. It went on and on. You knew it was no different with him, but everything had its limits. You got mad at him for not being there for so long, he had nothing to blame you for. And with that, you went to your quarters. 

You were in your quarters, you carefully rolled up the scroll from Shanks Island and put it in a safe place, put away the remaining maps, and collapsed into bed. Somehow too much had happened in a day, and now you were on a ship with not one or two demons, but three. 

As you rested, Buggy teleported to you. He had a big word that you should be grateful you had him. For letting you have a pact with him in the first place. 

But his big words were slowly fading into words of uncertainty and concern. He was afraid you'd trade him in for two other much stronger demons. He was afraid he wasn't strong enough or good enough. Finally, you saw him become a pile of misery. Without saying it outright, he missed you. 

You saw the state he was in, so you pulled him into your bed and hugged him. He melted completely in your arms and held you as his life depended on it. 

You made fun of him for being such a big baby. Before the clown could protest, however, you added that you missed him too, which made him cry. 

You could say sailing with three demons on board was never boring.

The deck was lively and the general atmosphere was happy. Buggy was running his circus, Shanks was drinking and Mihawk stood by you like a bodyguard. The clown finished one of his acts after a while and you started laughing. At that moment, the demons were sure they hadn't heard a nicer sound. 

But that didn't mean everything was bathed in sunshine and rainbows. You were stranded on a small island. The crew was celebrating and having fun. You were in your tent while Mihawk and Buggy were elsewhere. 

You were thinking about going to bed early when Shanks came to you. He brought you a drink, but you could see there was more to it than that. And it was true, as the red-haired demon asked you if you wanted to make a pact with him. 

He wanted to show you how powerful he was, so he showed you his true form, the air saturated with the power of his energy. You felt like you were drowning in his energy but in a nice way. 

Before you knew it, you agreed to the pact. The demon was absolutely delighted with your decision and leaned closer to you with a hungry expression.

With ease, he laid you down on the blankets and began showering your skin with light kisses. He started at your neck and slowly made his way to your chest, where he finally stopped and where you finally felt a pleasant burning sensation. There he placed his mark. 

Less than a minute later, the other two demons you had a pact with appeared there. Buggy immediately pulled Shanks away from you. You were theirs and no one else's. No other demon had any claim on you, especially not him. Mihawk hadn't expected this either and held you in his arms until you sobered up from the rush of all that demonic energy. 

"Just don't fight," you muttered, stepping on your tongue a few times in the process. Then you repeated it, feeling the demonic marks on your body burn. You didn't want them to fight. 

Since then, they've also tried harder and harder to get you all to themselves. Buggy's been putting on a show just for you. One time he was juggling his body parts, and you didn't like that, to be honest. 

It made the clown's head spin because, surprisingly, he was juggling his head and he collapsed to the ground. It was one of the few moments that made you cheer up and you just chuckled weakly before you got up and went to help him up. 

He was in a very bad mood about it though, as it didn't get the reaction he wanted. The best thing to do was to get down on your knees in front of him and beg him so you could just be his. 

You took him to you and hugged him while you stroked his hair. You knew very well what worked for him and what didn't. You promised him you wouldn't tell anyone about his failed performance and you kissed him on the nose.

You could see him wanting to argue about his nose, but after that kiss, he turned just as red as his nose and all that came out was a meaningless mumble.

Shanks was leaning on the railing with one arm, watching the action on deck. His eyes, however, more than the others, were glued on you. You were on deck, making sure things around you were running like clockwork. 

You were passing him when he pulled you close. He wrapped his arm around your waist and rested his head on your shoulder. That way you were there under him, hidden from all the worries and questions your crew had for you. He kissed your neck before he started to nuzzle his nose with your shoulder. 

When you were back in your cabin that evening, you were glad for some peace. Mihawk was there with you, and you suspected he had similar intentions to the others, but you didn't mind him so much. 

"Is it a little much to ask for a little peace?" You asked, hugging him. It wasn't a question you wanted answered, though. 

Mihawk actually had something in store for the two of you as well. He kissed you on the mark on your hand before leading you over to a small table where a wonderfully scented candlelit dinner he had prepared himself was laid out. 

He had also selected a delicious wine to go with the meal and finished it all off with a small gift, a gold subtle pendant. It was such an enjoyable evening. 

After dinner you sat next to each other, talked for a while and then just watched the sun go down. Without realizing it, your eyelids began to droop and you rested your head on his shoulder. 

Mihawk saw your tiredness, picked you up in his arms and carried you to the bed where he laid you down. He covered you with the covers and when he tried to leave, you stopped him. Even on the threshold of sleep, you wished he'd stayed there with you. Who was he to refuse you? He sat on the edge of your bed and stroked your back until you fell asleep. And even after that, he stayed there with you, keeping an eye on you. 

You were in a new city, gathering supplies for your next voyage. You were perusing the grocery list for what you needed when a rather handsome young man approached you and began to flirt with you despite your disinterest. 

You ignored him and focused on your list even though he tried to ask you out for a drink. You had had quite enough as he was insistent when you got the impression someone was behind you. You didn't even have to turn around to know who it was. 

The young man opened his mouth to say something else he offered when he paused and turned pale. He immediately shut his mouth, mumbled a quick goodbye on the fifth time he turned around and quickly walked away. 

At that moment, some unspoken contract or agreement was formed between the 3 demons to work together against all other suitors. 

With that, they slowly began to get along more, arranging things better between them and even arranged a big date with dinner and entertainment that was very hilarious. 

The Marines have been after you and your crew for some time now, and somehow you've managed to elude them. Unfortunately, your luck didn't last forever and their battleships caught up with you at sea and completely surrounded you. You were trapped. 

You tried to escape them on the ship, but their battleships damaged your ships so badly that you couldn't continue. You had your path cut off, and all the plans you made failed. 

And just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, the ocean's surface froze over, creating a flat surface to walk on. The captain and his best men disembarked from the main ship and called out to you. All they wanted was you. 

You were aware of that and you wanted to use it to save your crew. Despite their protests, you forbade them to follow you. You made a deal with the Marine captain that if you gave yourself up willingly, he would spare your crew. 

You stepped off the ship onto the frozen surface of the ocean and took a few steps forward as your crew tried to follow you. You just turned to them and met their gaze. You didn't want them to get hurt. They didn't deserve it. 

You had almost reached the midpoint between your ship and the Marine's when you noticed that the ice around your ship had disappeared and the water began to carry her away from you. 

You breathed a sigh of relief. You were glad the Marines had kept their word. 

The captain with whom you negotiated the freedom of your crew offered you another deal. If you defeated him and his two sub-captains, you would gain your freedom. You accepted because even though it was a long shot, it was a chance. 

You knew it would be an unfair fight, but you had no idea how much. Within minutes, you were knocked to your knees and the captain swung his sword at your head. 

You were breathing heavily, blood trickling into your eye from the wound on your forehead. You felt like it was the end of you. The marine captain smirked as he pronounced the death sentence on you, his hand already dropping his sword to your head. 

You had already closed your eyes when you heard the sound of two swords crossing. You opened your eyes and almost couldn't believe your eyes. You were no longer alone, and you had all three demons at your side as Mihawk blocked the one aimed at your neck with his sword. 

"Leave it to us now," Shanks smiled at you before looking at the marines, his gaze instantly narrowing. The demons all showed their true forms, releasing a surge of energy so powerful it made the weak marines faint. 

In addition, more demons began to appear around them, most of which you had the pleasure of getting to know. You knew Buggy's demons and even Shanks'. These demons took care of the smaller fish and even dragged a lot of them to hell. The rest of the survivors took their feet on their shoulders. 

Shanks took care of the captains and sub-captains and Buggy took care of the middling ones and at one point it looked like he had his own work cut out for him. 

Mihawk, meanwhile, stayed with you as a bodyguard and took you in his arms as his bride and walked calmly away with you to safety. You were so exhausted and had lost enough blood that it was no wonder you passed out in his arms. 

When you regained consciousness, you were lying on the bed with your wounds tended to. But you weren't lying there alone. Mihawk was lying on one side next to you with one arm around your waist. On the other side lay Shanks, and at your feet lay Buggy, but with his head separated from his body, resting in your lap. 

Again you lay back down with a smile on your lips. This was one of those rare moments when you had all three demons with you and none of them were arguing. Satisfied, you closed your eyes and fell asleep in their embrace again.
