wait wait wait i kinda want a Titanic au for hisoillu where the Zoldycks aren't assassins but just top class business men and the Black Whale is the ship that sinks (not that we know of that yet) and Hisoka boarded bc he's being hunted by the mafia (the ryodan) AND I WANT THIS/ THINK THIS PROMPT WILL WORK FOR FOUR VERY SPECIFIC REASONS:

ONE ARTIST HISOKA! Like,, COME ON, (honorable mention but-) if you read Cigarette Teeth by hisokun then you would know exactly what a painter/ artist Hisoka would look like and why i fIND HIM SO DAMN APPEALING

TWO this is kinda a painful reason and image to think about but during the scene Rose was supposed to jump, y'know their very first meet? yeah, Illumi was about to do jump off of the balcony railing in deck 3 too, but Hisoka has been sneaking around jumping from deck to deck and he finds Illumi there

since i like adding fuel to my sad boi fires how bout we add that Hisoka is a bit of an asshole at their first meeting, and talked to Illumi while he literally held on for dear life; Hisoka would psychoanalyze Illumi, make fun of him a lil bc he's rich and he's "from a well off family so why the hell do you wanna do this?" to which Illumi promptly and quite incompletely explains why being the eldest Zoldyck son was the worst thing ever...

they talk like that until Hisoka starts hearing ppl and he deadass goes over behind Illumi and says "okay princess, the ship's about to wake up soon. let's get you back to your upper deck."

and Illumi struggles bc suddenly he remembers why he was there in the first place.

h: "you don't wanna jump,"

i: "yes i do"

h: "nah, princess, you want the people who hurt you to get hurt back. jumping off ain't gonna solve anything. come on,"

hisoka lifts illumi from the railing, flipping detaches him and carries him over one shoulder, illu's hair cascading down in silky black waves (also rmmbr that hc where illu's kinda weak combat wise? xD yeah let's apply that too since this is a no-nen world)

THREE the quotes would work so well!!

i: "you're crazy!!"

h: "with all due respect, pretty darling, i'm not the one hanging off of the railing of a whale boat"

i: "I know what you must be thinking. “Poor little rich boy, what does he know about misery?”"

h: "No, no, that’s not what I was thinking. What I was thinking was, what could’ve happened to this boy to make him think he had no way out?"

h: “I mean, I got everything I need right here with me. I got air in my lungs, a few blank sheets of paper. I mean, I love waking up in the morning not knowing what’s gonna happen or, who I’m gonna meet, where I’m gonna wind up. Just the other night I was sleeping under a bridge and now here I am on the grandest ship in the world having champagne with you fine people.”

i: "hisoka, i'm flying!"

i: "paint me like your-

h: “They’ve got you trapped, Illu. And you’re gonna die if you don’t break free. Maybe not right away because you’re strong but sooner or later that fire that I love about you… that fire’s gonna burn out.”

i: “I saw my whole life as if I’d already lived it. An endless parade of parties and cotillions, yachts and polo matches. Always the same narrow people, the same mindless chatter. I felt like I was standing at a great precipice, with no one to pull me back."

(ffff the shoe fits so well for this one but) i: “Now you know there was a man named Hisoka Morow, and that he saved me in every way that a person can be saved. I don’t even have a picture of him. He exists now only in my memory.”

and FOUR we get an image of Illu who didn't submit to his parents' will, an Illu that wanted to save himself instead of letting go of his identity to please others. ain't that what we all want? He'd make a pretty good Rose! on the other hand we have the free and elusive Hisoka, here i think he'd perfectly fit the character for Jack; loose with connections, all about living the moment and have been through hell and back but still has a skip in his step and a smile on his face. like, siR-

(bonus if Killu meets the squad there too! and the 6 out of 1500 that Older Rose talked abt who survived would be the gon squad + hisoillu or... whoever you prefer would survive :'))

anyways I'm @ chap 383 on the manga don't spoil anything for me please-
