Modern/normal life Highschool au Part… I want to say… 4

Usopp: sophomore. Art kid, as we have established, but like he’s one of those art kids who get into those big, fancy competitions. Probably has a secret Tumblr account where he posts fan art. Mostly A’s, a few B’s. If he has a class with Luffy, then he’s not getting any work done. He and Nami are besties, and they cry about their love lives to each other. He has liked Kaya, a homeschooled girl, forever, and when they started dating, no one believed she existed.

Sanji: sophomore, he’s in an AP culinary and tried to start a club because he thought girls would join, but only Luffy showed up and the club was shut down due to casualties caused by Luffy. When Luffy found out his dad owned a restaurant, it became one of their hangout spots. Zeff feeds them mostly for free because he thinks Sanji needs more friends. Popular but mostly for being a creep.

Chopper: Freshman met Nami first when she had to go to the nurse for something. Then he met Luffy, who was about to fail whatever class they had together, and he promised to help him pass. After that, Luffy kept on hanging around him until he joined the friend group. At this point, he was only friends with the nurse, and she was hyping him up because she wanted him to have more friends.

BONUS for chopper: doctorines the nurse (if that wasn’t obvious), but I feel like she would be like Terry from Glee when she was a nurse, except she wouldn’t get caught.

Denji and a "Normal Life"

So I've been thinking about something Fujimoto said that superheroes should either retire or die, and I'm thinking about how that mindset may apply to Denji, and what a "normal life" would mean to him.

The idea of someone putting down the mantle isn't unheard of, stories where people are able to stop fighting and learn to appreciate the lives they have, and with Denji I can see how that can work. He views CSM has something better than who he is, something that people can love, and I feel like if people are able to love Denji, and that he knows that people love him that he could maybe one day stop being CSM and be happy with a "normal life". However the more I thought about it, the more I thought about how a "normal life" looks considering the context it's been introduced to him, that it's something that has been forced on him without his consent or general personhood in mind. Public Safety does not care about Denji, they forced a "normal life" on him because it was easier for them, they did so by threatening Nayuta's life, and I highly suspect that they knew the Church would blow up in Denji's face sooner or later, so it was a shitty deal from the very start. As well meaning as Asa is, she wants a "normal life" for Denji is because it's what she thinks he wants, she thinks this because everyone else is saying that is what he needs to be happy, and as much as I love Asa everything about her story is her trying to do what she thinks is right and hurting those she's trying to help, even her "helping" Denji live a "normal life" is fighting him. When Denji was forced by PS to live a "normal life" he was miserable, he felt lost and without purpose, but when he became Chainsaw Man it caused him to lose Nayuta, and him saying that him being CSM makes everything worsw doesn't tell me he thinks a "normal life" isn't something good to strive for, but rather a punishment for being selfish and possibly getting Nayuta killed.

That's how I view the way the story has set up a "normal life" for him, that's it's Denji being punished for the actions of others, because we've seen Denji be happy with his time Aki and Power and later Nayuta, it was only when other people got involved and decided to ruin his happiness that the idea of a "normal life" was being pushed onto him. Public Safety forced Denji to live a "normal life" and they failed to keep him safe, even though I doubt that was ever a high priority to them, and his transformation back into CSM was an act of self-defense, Barem and the others had burned his house and pets down and would have gone after him, Nayuta and Fumiko if he hadn't transformed, yet despite being the victim he was punished for it. Then there is the Church, who have attacked Denji and manipulated the public image of him for their own needs, and Fami's deal with Asa only exists to make her comply with her plans, with Denji's own wants and desires merely an afterthought. If Denji had a stable life where he was offered an out he could have taken of his own volition, but he still became CSM and ruined that happiness, that would be one thing, but Denji's story is about how he has been exploited and abused his whole life through no fault of his own by people who saw no value in him beyond how they could use him.

Denji should in the end be allowed to choose his own happiness without anyone else interfering in what that means, and if he comes to accept a "normal life", then it should be on his own terms, but with everything currently going on in the story a "normal life" is just a punishment afflicted on him by others and that he deserves it because from his point of view he's a selfish monster who gets his family killed so why should he be happy?

Modern/normal Highschool au headcanons for one piece part two

Brook: music teacher OBVI but he’s like the old teacher who had a really good career and then got bored of retirement so went into teaching. He’ll talk to the class about his glory days.

Jinbei: (I’m not post time skip so this prob isn’t that accurate) he’s a philosophy teacher. He went to a really good school and had a really good career but decided that he just wanted to be a teacher. His students think his class is fun but it’s not an easy A class so a bunch of kids go into it thinking it’s a goof off class and then talk bad about it because it’s not.

Koby: in the ROTC or JROTC. Used to get bullied a lot but then Luffy transferred and fought the bullies so now he doesn’t get bullied anymore. Wants to be a police officer or work in the military because he wants to help people the way Luffy helped him.

Ivankov: theatre teacher who has favorites but the favorites are actually talented. Doesn’t cast based on gender or specific looks which is why a lot of students like them. Also doesn’t cast based on seniority.

Garp: P.E coach health teacher on the side AND helps out with ROTC. Students either hate him or love him. He cares but he uses tough love so a lot of people think he doesn’t care. In kahoots with the principal so if you mess up with him you mess up bad.

BONUS FOR THE LAST POST BECAUSE I THOUGHT OF MORE

Sanji: smokes cigarettes instead of vaping because he thinks it makes him look cool but it just smells bad.

Nami: has a gazillion side jobs in school and out of school. She’ll hustle you in 7th period and then when you walk to the McDonald’s afterschool she’s at the drive through. Like that one chick from Austin and ally (idk her name) gets fired a lot though because she and her friends cause trouble while she’s working.

What's a thing I did to my mom? took the Amazon Fire Kindle tablet from her office. look she doesn't take care of the poor thing!! it fell off a shelf and she didn't notice so, I looked at it and thought. "I can give you a better life.." and I did. It is now in my hoodie pocket while I'm at school.

I named him Coal. (also coal was never used b4 or at least was factory reseted in a way. now I take care of the abused tablit.)
