Imagine seven year old Luffy seeing some baby animals (maybe wolves?) play-biting out of affection and deciding to do the same. So he goes up to Ace and just gently *nom*.

Ace is confused, cause what? He asks, and Luffy just says that he saw someone else do that to their siblings. Ace, not realizing that Luffy saw baby /animals/ play-bite their sibling, and runs with it. After all, Luffy has the most experience with kids their age between the two of them. (Sabo’ as experiences don’t count to them because “Nobles are weird”)

So the two (or three if it happens before Sabo’s accident) just start biting each other as a way of showing affection. No big deal, just average wild child stuff, only it continues once they’ve set out and gathered crew.

I imagine Ace ended up gathering the Spades in a similar manner to Luffy, one by one kind of way but no more than two at a time. By the time the next Spade joined, the previous one was not only accustomed to but joined in with affectionate biting. It wasn’t much, or often, but still present enough.

Ace doesn’t even realize that it’s not a normal thing until after he joins Whitebeard, when he affectionately bites Thatch for bringing him food. A whole shenanigan-esque scene happens where they try to explain to Ace that No, humans do not tend to bite each other in affection outside of lovers in intimate situations. Once it finally sinks in, all he can say is “Oh no, my brother’s poor crew.”

Luffy doesn’t hesitate to affectionately bite his nakama, and they just take it as part of him, just like how he’s rubber. It mainly becomes a thing when the other Straw Hats start doing it as well.

Zoro, I imagine, would be the first, and would first do it to Sanji. Like, he just woke up from a nap, and sees Sanji handing him a bottle of booze. So, as thanks, he instinctively gives Sanji a gentle nip on his wrist as he takes the bottle. Sanji is so shook he doesn’t even start a fight over it, and just numbly walks over to the girl(s). “You know how Luffy keeps biting us?” “Yeah, he’s like a damn mosquito, only he doesn’t draw blood.” “Zoro just bit me. Like how Luffy does.” “…What?”

From there, it spreads. Gentle nips as thanks, worried noms for those injured, soft bites as just general “I’m glad you’re here”. Every one of the Straw Hats bite each other. (I imagine Brook has a bone in particular that he lets them nom on because he’s so tall, and they don’t want to upset him by making him feel like a chew toy, and it just has various teeth marks simply because of how many times they’ve gently bit him. He’s very thankful for it, because on nights when he can’t sleep because he’s suddenly thrown mentally back into isolation, he can feel their marks on his bone and remember that he will never be alone as long as they live.)

The Whitebeards are thrown through a loop if/when they meet a small crew captained by their Second Division Commander’s precious baby brother, and finds that a l l of them have the same way of showing affection, and none of them brought up how weird it is.

(If Sabo was still around when Luffy came to this conclusion, I imagine it’d gotten stuck in Sabo’s instincts to nom with affection. Koala is the first -and only for a long time- person he bites, and she doesn’t question it because “maybe it’s an amnesia thing? Like him not even knowing his name?”, and doesn’t even bring it up. The others only find out once Hack gets bitten for delivering a tired and hungry Sabo a snack after training. “You know I’m not food, right?” “Yeah?” “So then why did you bite me?” “I bite Koala all the time?” “I thought it was an amnesia thing, is it not?” “No, it’s not even really a human thing, with some very age-specific exceptions.” “Huh. Normally, I just feel like biting, so I bite. Normally, it’s a ‘I’m glad you’re here’ or ‘hello/goodbye’ bite. That was a ‘thank you’.” “…all right.”)

History:

Australian Cattle Dogs were originally bred and developed by Australian settlers in the 19th century to herd cattle on large ranches, as it was found the Collie’s and other dogs brought over to Australia could not handle the harsh working conditions and bold livestock that awaited them. Over 60 years of crossbreeding went into producing the Australian Cattle Dog that we know today, with breeds including the Dingo, collie, sheepdog, Kelpie, Dalmatian and Bull Terrier being used in their foundation. An instrumental person in this breeding is Robert Kaleski, who took up breeding ‘Blue Heelers’ in 1893, and showing them in 1897, drawing up a breed standard that resembled the Dingo, believing they should be modelled after the canine that is naturally suited to the Australian Outback. This standard was approved by The Kennel Club of New South Wales in 1903, being first known as the Australian Heeler, coming from its herding technique of nipping heels to ‘drive’ the stock, and later being named the Australian Cattle Dog, though heeler is still a popular nickname for the breed, often fronted by the colour of the dog or ‘Queensland’, where the breed was particularly popular. This breed was key in helping ranchers expand the Australian beef industry and proved to be the most popular among ranch owners and drovers, still being used as herding dogs today with a strong instinct to do so, often trying to herd other animals, including children and cats if not given a proper outlet.

Temperament:

Australian Cattle Dogs are extremely intelligent, possessing an immense work drive and boundless energy, a true working dog. They excel at controlling and moving livestock, known to be devoted to their duty, but outside of the ranch, these qualities make them excellent companions for those that appreciate the adventurous way of life. To their handlers they are incredibly loyal, tenacious and trustworthy. Their protective instincts make them a self-appointed guardian to his family, his herd and his property. As a result, the ACD is alert, watchful, courageous and may be wary of strangers, but this should not mean unfriendly, he is just devoted to his owner and family, wanting to go wherever you go. They thrive on being part of all family activities and having a job to do. Being easy to train and very fast learners, they can learn a variety of commands and are known for their problem-solving skills. This intelligence and energy can manifest negatively if they are not appropriately challenged, becoming easily bored and getting themselves into mischief. They have a habit of routinely outsmarting their owners and they’re not easy dogs to tire out. They need almost constant mental and activity to keep them out of trouble. They are known to be destructive, chewing and tearing up items you really don’t want them to, so owners should be committed to keeping them busy. They are also quick to react and have a tendency to use their teeth to move animals and humans alike, which can become an issue in the home, as well as struggling with dogs outside of the home, so early and consistent socialisation is needed, but if their needs are met you will be rewarded with a loyal, hard-working companion.

Exercise:

It is recommended that ACD owners engage in work, sport, and/or regular exercise for at least 2 hours a day with these versatile dogs to keep them mentally and physically fit. Being a very active, high-energy dog built for long working days in the outback, the Australian Cattle Dog needs more than just a quick walk and playtime in the yard, ideally having a job in order to remain happy and healthy. If being placed in a farming home this energy will be no issue, especially with animals to herd, in other living situations, they should be given lots of opportunities to expend this energy, through running, hiking, swimming, dog sports and more. They typically need a lot of space and do best with a garden and may not adapt well to apartment living. 

Training:

Early, consistent socialization and obedience training are a must for the Australian Cattle Dog, they are a highly intelligent, energetic breed that is only really happy when on the job. Training and participation in activities such as obedience, herding, or agility is highly recommended to keep them busy. This type of training can and should take up a large part of owning this dog, but it is important to create and strengthen your bond. An intelligent, energetic dog who is not kept occupied will become bored, and a bored, energetic dog can be destructive. Generally, ACDs are easy to train, while it is understood that they can be stubborn at times, but ultimately they are eager to please their people and consistent training will help tame this independence. While it is tempting to let this dog be on to go constantly, it is important to help teach this dog an off-switch, teaching them to settle down at the end of the day will be invaluable to both you and them.
