Watching Dressrosa and seeing Zoro watch Luffy's colosseum battle on the screen I was suddenly hit by the fact that in a Modern AU he'd probably be the most obnoxious kind of soccer fan.
You know the one that probably picks a new favorite team every match and is only a soccer fan when they are actively watching soccer. I can honestly just imagine him screaming at the screen and being all dramatic at the team talking about honor and shit. No actual practical knowledge of soccer though.
I just think he and Mihawk would just be the kind of people that like sport in a Modern AU they are athletes themselves but they also just like competition and adrenaline and so sports. Except Mihawk atleast attempts to possess a basic knowledge of the rules and plays of sports he watches while Zoro will watch a sport he's never heard of in his life, chooses a random dude that's "got guts" and root for them so wholeheartedly you'd think he's supported them all his life.
All this to say that goth family watches the World Cup as part of "family bonding time" and
-Mihawk is rooting for 3 separate countries, the 2 that his data says are statically most probably going to win and his home country cause he has some "patriotic pride". He watches intensely but never actually reacts to anything.
-Zoro is rooting for whichever team is playing against whatever team Mihawk is repping at the moment. He has no stakes in this longterm whatsoever exceot that he gets his fill of trolling Mihawk, sports adrenaline and on the rare occasion his team wins he gets to be a smug asshole to the man who raised him 😌. He screams at the T.V so much you'd think he had money on the line.
-Perona liked the idea of styling cute matching jerseys so much so that she forgot how much she hates watching sport. She is very bored and unhappy and hopes that somehow both of them lose. She judges the outfits (the jerseys) of different countries and their coaches on a scale that only she really understands but all must suffer through.
-Shanks is there because this is the only time Mihawk will hold his hand even though he is squeezing so hard his bones might be ground to dust. (the only indicator that Mihaw is affected at all by what is happening). He's bar hopper he's used to seeing random sports he doesn't understand played on green fields running in the background of his mild buzz to drunken fool binge. He's just glad to be included.
#Zoro would probably get tricked by Nami and Perona into engagin in sports betting though and so he does have something on the line#No matter the outcome he can never win and he fears he will be paying out nami till the day he dies#and that Perona might own an actual part of his soul?maybe? the details where unclear a ritual was involved tho#I dont even know what this is😭 I don't even watch soccer#I don't even watch soccer but it is the sport I am most familiar with seeing people spectate at insane levels of every single emotion\#Also I just Zoro and Miahwk showing love through head to head competition in the most petty ridiculous things is myy bread and butter#If they don't leave outsiders wondering if they hate each other but people#that know them frustrated by the fact that two grown men can't just say “I love you” then what even is the point?#also mihawk is definitely the type of person to turn sports spectating into a family event.#they watch all the major sports events together across all sports and he makes a whole day of it.#Its his insane way of sharing his hobby with his kids but since he's incapable of being a functioning adult#it's just a grown man with his teenage children quietly watching wrestle mania#goth family#throwing thoughts to the void#op#mishanks#hawkeye mihawk#dracule mihawk#one piece#shanks#roronoa zoro#perona#ghost princess perona#goth fam#one piece goth family#straw hat pirates#red haired shanks#one piece thoughts#one piece modern au
