𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐄𝐒: a full, mobile-friendly write up of Law's verses. As a general rule, I love exploring AUs and canon-divergent "what if" based verses and am more than happy to write ALL the verses with ALL the muns. [If there's one thing to never be shy about when approaching me, it's talking verses.] I also love collaborative verse stuff so all of these are open if you see anything you want to jump in on. Relevant TW/CWs listed after each verse. [If blacklisting a tag, please note that everything within the parenthesis is part of the tag, including the semi-colons.)

𝐆𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐋 𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐄𝐒:

♥ CANON ➜ Events taking place at any point throughout the timeline we've seen explored or alluded to in the manga. One day I'll break this down into pre and post-time skip subverses, but basically when I say canon it's anything from Law's childhood to the current arc. I will generally default to this unless an ask / prompt specifically requests another (OR I find something in your open verses I think it would fit.) ♥ MODERN ➜ Modern verses or spin-offs are usually developmental works in progress, but Law is generally 26, several years into a surgical residency (default: works for Kureha, completed undergrad and med school in 3 years each). Unless otherwise discussed/arranged, modern verse iterations are written with the assumption that Rosinante is alive and took Law in after he lost his family to an accident around the same age as canon. They deserve to be happy and I love the thought of Cora-san being a part of Law's day to day life. ♥ POST-CANON ➜ I haven't had a chance to explore this yet so title and details will be updated in time. This would entail anything taking place after the end of the manga/presumably after Luffy is pirate king. I've explored notions of Law & the Hearts continuing their travels, Law just being a traveling doctor, or returning to Swallow Island and essentially retiring or at least lying low for a while. I always love screaming about "what do you think happens after" possibilities.

𝐎𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐎𝐏𝐄𝐍 𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐄𝐒:

[verses that were established/created with specific muns but both/all muns welcome others jumping in! feel free to direct memes or starters at any of these if there's something you see and want to play in. all muns involved in the verses listed here love collaborative verse shenanigans.]

𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐄:

A (sometimes) canon-divergent "What If" AU built with @climatact. Explores the ideas of Bellemere living, Nami following in her footsteps to become a marine, Law & Cora-san having more time to travel together, and their search for a cure bringing them briefly to the East Blue.

TIMELINE / HIGHLIGHTS:

♥ Law & Nami first meet at ages 12 & 6 respectively, when the former's travels with Donquixote Rosinante bring them to the East in search of a cure for Law. ♥ Law's story goes on to be mostly canon-compliant. Cora-san still dies when Law is 13, he still finds his way to Swallow Island and becomes a pirate, etc. ♥ Diverges again when his path crosses with Nami's in the Grand Line 11 years down the line. ♥ Unsatisfied with her career and quickly caught up in a mutual attraction turned whirlwind romance with the captain of the Heart pirates, Nami leaves marine life behind to join Law's crew. In light of the unplanned addition of a much smaller Heart, the two trek back to Nami's island for the birth and safe delivery of Trafalgar Cora. (occurs during the canonical two-year timeskip) ♥ Six months after Cora-chan's birth, the two return to the Grand Line to head for Punk Hazard, leaving their daughter in Bellemere's care while they're gone. Becomes mostly canon-compliant again once Nami joins the Straw Hats after Punk Hazard.

𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐄 𝐓𝐑𝐘𝐒𝐓𝐒:

A spin-off of Heartverse, also written with @climatact. Explores the same "What If"s and general timeline - only instead of leaving the Marines, Nami focuses on furthering her career to become one of the rare "good" marines, climbing the ranks while carrying out a secret romance with the Surgeon of Death. Sometime around the Dressrosa arc, Nami becomes a member of SWORD, and the two give up on efforts to hide their involvement.

T/CWs: law x nami ship (#♡ // ship: law x nami ;)

𝐆𝐎𝐃𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐄:

A "from scratch" AU with @climatact based on a shared love of Greek mythology (and specifically the story of Hades & Persephone). Ft. Law as the god of the Underworld and Nami as the unfortunate mortal who ate a tangerine from the wrong grove. Foregoing the option of re-entering the cycle of life and rebirth, Nami sticks around to remain a thorn in the god's side. In time, the two put aside their initial differences and grow increasingly closer, resulting in a marriage of convenience in Law's attempts to make amends and (somewhat) reunite the mortal with her sister.

T/CWs: pregnancy (#tw: pregnancy) & law x nami ship (#♡ // ship: law x nami ;)

𝐌𝐈𝐊𝐀𝐍 𝐌𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐎𝐖𝐒:

Spin-off of Godverse, also written with @climatact. Taking the same starting point of the love of Hades/Persephone but applying it in a more Victorian setting. A much newer god of the Underworld, Law befriends a kind mortal woman on a rare detour to the surface. Drawn to her sunny disposition, Law finds himself making regular trips to the mortal realm to see her, explaining his long absences away as a side effect of his job as a traveling doctor.

𝐃𝐎𝐍𝐐𝐔𝐈𝐗𝐎𝐓𝐄 𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐄:

A canon-divergent "What If" AU explored with @cptnslog. Explores the ideas of a young Nico Robin finding her way to the Donquixote Family, befriending a disgruntled Trafalgar Law when he joins several years later. The two become fast friends - until the day Robin wakes up to find Law presumably kidnapped by Corazon. With Rosinante's death, all plans of returning for Robin fall through, and the two go about their lives without any closure. Several years later, Robin escapes the Donquixote family, wandering for a while until she eventually finds her way to a second sinister Warlord. (Becomes mostly canon-compliant here; explores feelings of abandonment and strained relations when the two cross paths on Sabaody many years later).

Features @mingos as Donquixote Doflamingo.

Food break/still a work in progress. Still need to sit down and write-up several other verses with @cptnslog / @gumpistol, Cora-lived verses with @cptnslog / @belovedcorvid / @code01746. (Please forgive me/yell if I'm missing anything else - headache making it difficult to think right now! To add: Boa and Law arranged marriage verse with @lightinsonder, Holidate w @climatact)
