Pirates on Twisted Wonderland! (prologue 1)

Okok, this is an idea of an AU I had on mind. What would happen if our boys lived in a pirate like universe? I decided to write a story about that! I've been rewatching the Pirates of the Caribean movies, what's your favourite one? Mine is the first one! I'm sorry this is a bit short, I had to cut it in two parts because I still have to get used to writing again (yes, this was writen all at once! Aren't I amazing? *wink*)

Let's start!

Prologue 2->

Warnings: none.

As the clear sky of the morning makes its way through rays of light at Nao Yuukiteru's room, they open their eyes while growling. They wish to stay in their raspy yet warm sheets, but the daytime only means one thing: they have to prepare for work.

Nao, Yuu when talking to friends, tries to go downstairs as quietly as they can. But a really loud screech runs throughout the quiet air and calls their mother's attention.

-Yuukiteru Nao! -she yells bluntly- You overslept!

Yuu lets out a loud sigh.

-I'm sorry, mom...

-I know it's tough, Yuu, but you know we ran out of fish for our restaurant...

The restaurant is the only thing that feeds them and their mother, a bit of guilt ties theis stomach as they frown and look away of their mother.

-Come on, Yuu...

-I'm sorry mom, I'll go right away.

-But you didn't eat any breakfast!

Yuu shrugs it off and takes a piece of bread.

-Don't worry mom, this is enough!

Before she could say anything else, Yuu takes some silver coins and exits running through the courtains on where there had to be a completely fine door at sometime in the past. Their mother sighs.

-What can I do... -she smiles sadly and goes on doing chores in their home.

As Yuu walks down in their street, they look around. What they call home is a series of teared apart houses that once resembled a comfy place to live. People walk around with signs in their arms and a can with some coins, that's what they could gather that morning.

Ever since their father past away, they couldn't stop wandering what it would had been if they were alive at that moment. Would the restaurant run better? Would they still be living there? Would they be able to help those in need? They shake their head trying to wash those thoughts off. "It's useless, this is what it is" They think while walking, and walking, and walking...

A breeze of salty air hits their nose, the rays of the sun pierces through their skin, and the seagulls welcomes them with saquawks in the blue, clear sky. It's clear that they arrived at their destiny.

They look at the tons and tons of dead fish while they hear the fishermen loudly shouting the kind of fish they're selling and their price. That combined with the variety of hundreds of people walking at the same stalls makes an overwhelming enviroment for which they have to take a break.

-PIRATES!!!

Panic makes its way through the people people running at different ways. Yuu sees all the mess, being paralized by panic, they haven't barely realized the blunt hit behind their head...

To be continued...

''A... mermaid? No, what are you...?!''

merfolk + pirate AU I guess 🧍‍♂️

[mochinomnoms]

Half asleep past midnight ramblings because I saw a pirate AU mentioned and I know you like Jade so like

Yuu drops stuff off the edge of a ship and into the ocean by accident - maybe some kinda mushroom-shaped pendant idk. And jade ends up catching it and misinterpreted the exchange as a courting gesture somehow. And now Yuu keeps on getting dragged out to deck by the rest of the crew because this bigass mer with bigass teeth keeps jumping aboard and snarling at anyone who approaches him except for Yuu for some reason

And Yuu just keeps having to drop what they're doing to nudge what seems, to them, like quite a placid merman off the deck and back into the ocean, wondering why they specifically have to do that and not believing the rest of the crew when they describe Jade as 'A hissing monstrosity that tried to take a chunk outta my arm!' etc. etc.

Anyway they have a collection of random ocean trinkets that Jade keeps giving them or something. And also Jade saves them from drowning. Floyd follows Jade to the surface once and then there's an issue with TWO mermen tryna hang out on deck but only tolerating two specific crew members and one is the angry redhead who ends up looking super amusing trying to drag a slippery, troublesome eel to the edge of the boat so he can get back to whatever he should be doing

Sorry about the rambling - and sorry if it isn't coherent. My brain needs something to do since I can't get to sleep rn lol.

I don't know a whole lot about pirates other than what I know from my video game...but from I am aware! They spend at least weeks if not months out at sea! I like to think that it takes Jade sometime to watch and actually fall for someone, while Floyd is the one more prone to love at first sight fight

When you guys are around at sea, slowly making your way to the next port, you're not super surprised you've been followed by a pair of merfolk.

They're known to be curious, but unless they're sirens, they're likely to keep to themselves.

But these two have been following the ship for quite some time now, like they're after something specific.

They're practically identical, just a few things like their gray strands of hair and their bi-colored eyes that help with differentiating them. The more excitable of the two seems to be most invested in chasing after your boat.

You can't understand the clicks, chirps, or squeals he makes, but you do notice how excited he gets when your friend Riddle, a crewmate who ran off from home, is on the deck. Riddle seems annoyed and will often yell at the merman, telling him to go away and stop following.

Though the big guy just looks so happy to see Riddle that you think he isn't able to understand human speech. If you had to guess, you think he was following after Riddle. Not sure why though.

You almost forget about the other one, with how quiet he is. You encounter him after dropping a cute little mushroom pendant that you got from a port shop a while back. The moment it plopped into the dark water in the dead of night, you were absolutely devastated. You even took some spare rope and wrapped it around your waist in a tight knot before scaling the side of the ship to carefully make it down to the water.

Hoping and praying to whatever sea god lorded over the current waters you were in that the water was shallow and pendant not lost to the deep, you failed to notice the soft teal aquamarine glow emerging from the water.

When you finally do turn to look at the water, you just about screamed at the upper hand of one of the mermen's face staring at you. Pressing yourself against the wooden hull of the ship, you stared back at him, not even daring to blink, as if he would suddenly lunge at you if you looked away.

Not an unwarranted fear; you and the rest of the crew had seen the way those sharp teeth and claws torn apart large tuna and annoying seagulls.

You think this is the more quiet of the two, based on the lack of reaction and the strand on his left. He seems more quizzical than playful, compared to whom you think is his brother. His eyes flicker down to watch the way your chest moves up and down as you try to calm your breath. He stares for a bit before flickering back up to your eyes, where he resumes his chilling stare.

What felt like hours, but was probably minutes, passed as you two played what was essentially a staring contest. Eventually, made due to boredom, or maybe he was satisfied after studying you so long, his right hand came up from the water clenching something. He gently opened his hand to reveal the golden mushroom pendant, complete with your gold chain and everything.

"Oh! You got it, uh, can I have it back?" You asked, pointing at the item in his hand.

The merman slowly rose up the lower part of his face and upper chest now visible. Looking at him up close, you could understand why they cautioned sailors to keep their distance from all sea folk.

Such pretty faces, it's no wonder people willingly drown themselves just in an attempt to be with one.

The teal colored merman watched as you carefully reached for the item in his hand, only to jerk it away and make a laughing sound. You think it was laughter, based on the smirk and squinted eyes he gave you. You huffed, reaching for it again, only for him to swam back again. His laughter was growing louder, seems that he was just as mischievous as his brother, just sneakier about it.

It almost sounded musical to your ears, too bad you were too focused on getting the pendant back to admire it. Eventually, the creature was far enough out of your reach that you were barely touching the ship with the tip of your toes. It seemed like he wanted you to fall into the water as he playfully splashed at you with the tip of his tail. You knew he was playing, if he really wanted you in the water, that tail had more than enough strength to wrap around you and drag you in.

But still, you wanted that damn pendant back! He seemed fascinated by the mushroom itself and the detailing on it. His claws kept tracing over the ridges and he was studying it intently when he wasn't staring at you. He's probably never seen one before. That's when a brilliant idea popped into your head!

Gesturing him to wait, you climbed back up the rope, turning back every time to check and see that he was still there. The big guy seemed a bit annoyed, disappointed even, that you were leaving. No matter, you'd be back soon enough with a bargaining chip.

It takes a moment for you to finally make your way back up, huffing and your arms straining from pulling your self up. Riddle, bless his heart, had rushed out after hearing your scream earlier and was pacing around the deck waiting for you to return.

"There you are! I saw you with one of the mermen, did you get hurt? Do you need medical attention? Come to the infirmary, I'll check you up—"

You waved him off, struggling to undo your knot, blurting out something about you being fine and needing to trade. Finally managing to stumble into the sleeping quarters and to your cot, digging against your blanket and bags to finally find a small pouch.

Smiling at your victory, you ran back up to the deck to find Riddle struggling with the rope and one of the mermen. You're pretty sure it's the other one: his strand is on his right side and he's a lot more vocal as he tried climbing up the side of the ship using the rope and digging his claws in the hull.

Poor Riddle was struggling to get the merman's arms off of his, the latter's grasp tightening the more he struggled to get out.

"Damn it Floyd! I told you! Leave!" A kick. "Me!" An inhumane yelp. "ALONE!"

The merman looked almost disappointed as Riddle finally managed to kick him in the face and crawl away from his grasp.

Riddle was heaving as he glared at the pouting merman, watching as he finally lost his claw grip in the wood and slid back into the water with a loud splash. You helped your friend up, checking him over for any stratches or bite marks.

"So it is you that they're following! I'd been wondering way they were so focused on our ship, but how do you know his name?"

Riddle sighed, nodding his head. "I apologize. I was hoping that he wouldn't remember me from our childhood, it's been so long, but..."

He dragged his hands over his face in exasperation. "He has a perfect memory when he wants to. He used to visit the reefs near my hometown, I ended up meeting him there when I was younger. He was so annoying! Liked to poke and prod at me anytime I visited the beach, I thought I finally managed to get rid of him when I left home, but it seems that he's found me."

"How can you understand them?"

"Ah, they can speak and understand common tongue. They just choose to feign ignorance." Riddle muttered to himself as he slipped off his now soaking jacket.

You watched your friend as he wrung out the water in his clothes from who you now know is Floyd. Pursing your lips, you looked toward the rope, now splayed across the deck, and move toward it.

"Do you know the other one's name?" you asked, tying the rope back to your waist.

"Hmm? His twin? I think it's Jade, why do you want to—what are you doing?"

Riddle suddenly stood watching in horror as you slipped over the ledge of the ship once again.

"He's got my pendant, gonna get it back—"

"No! You going down there is how Floyd got up, get back here!" Riddle marched over, stomping his foot and reaching for you just as you jumped. "I'll get you another, one with rubies in it—HEY!"

Using the momentum from the fall, you planted your feet against the hull as you landed against it, looking down at the water again. This time, both mermen were watching you as you climbed down, though the one you though was Floyd looked upset and bored, swimming up to the hull to make small crying noises to Riddle, you assumed.

As you got closer, the one called Jade came closer, apparently interested that you returned. Once you were finally within each other's reach again, you gestureed for him to come closer.

By this point, his brother was behind him watching curiously as you held up the pouch in your hand, opening it and revealing a white button mushroom.

Jade perked up, looking between your pendant and the mushroom in your hand. You pointed at the pendant in his hand, before remembering what Riddle said.

"Oh yeah, he said you could understand me." Jade didn't betray that he understood you, though his ear fins twitched as you spoke.

"Uh, if you give me that—" you still pointed to the pendant, just incase he was wrong. Though Riddle rarely was. "—then I will give you this!" You pointed back to the white mushroom in your hand.

Jade looked excitedly at the mushroom, nodding as you two traded. Sighing in relief, you pulled the chain over your neck and tucked it into your shirt. You readied to climb back up to the ship again before glancing at Jade.

He was poking at the mushroom, turning it round in his fingers. He seemed almost childlike in his wonder with the fungus, it was almost cute. Right up until he tore it in half and dropped it into the water, watching it float.

"What, no!" You whined, startling him as you gestured between him and the mushroom.

"No! No, no, no! That's a waste of a perfectly good mushroom! Do you know how hard it is to get those at ports? You're supposed to eat it!"

Exasperated, you opened your pouch again and handed another to Jade, though this time he eyed your hand warily.

"...What? Do you think I'm gonna posion you? Look—" You tore it in half, like he did earlier, and popped one half into your mouth. "Shee? Yummy!"

He still looked doubtful as you chewed. Rolling your eyes, you extended your arm out to his face, making him jerk away again.

"Just, try it! Come on!" You pushed against the hull again, on your tiptoes, as you held out the mushroom towards his lips.

"I'll even feed it to ya! Say 'aaaah'."

Jade looked at your open mouth and, you swear on your soul, blushed before looking away. He thinned his lips, eyes flickering back at you again with an almost shy expression. Floyd, in the background, was staring curiously, before making a chirping sound. Jade made a similar sound back, before looking at you between his lashes and bashfully taking the mushroom from your fingertips.

You tried not to jump from his teeth scraping you and his cold lips brushing against your skin. Instead, you stilled yourself, holding your breath as he chewed.

"It's good, right?"

Jade paused swallowing and slowly nodding before opening his mouth.

"Yes, it's quite...nice." You were surprised how smooth and human his voice was. It as almost soft, a stark difference from his sharp ends and edges. Pleasant.

You shook your thoughts from your head. You refused to be one of those lovesick sailors.

"Right...well, thanks! I'll be, uh, heading back now."

You actively chose to not look back as you climbed up, though perhaps you should have. You could have seen the way Jade watched you, like your were Aphrodite emerging from the sea foam to the land.

"What I tell ya Jade?" Jade continued watching you climb up, eyeing the way Riddle dragged you to the boat, though he flicked his ear fin towards Floyd. "I told you that the lil shrimp was just your type!"

Floyd giggled as he swam on his back, circling his brother. He paused to listen to the way Riddle was yelling at you. So cute.

"Aren't you glad you joined me? I get my Goldfishie, and you'll get a little Shrimpy out of it! Mama and Pops will be so happy when we bring them back home!

"Yes...we'll have to do it soon though." Jade smiled as he watched you and Riddle peer over the edge. You waved at him, and he back at you. His smile grew as you excitedly waved even harder speaking to Riddle before your friend dragged you away.

"The farther we get, the less time we have to return to Azul. His water-breathing spell will only last so long."

"And whose fault is that?" Floyd scoffed, flicking water at his brother in annoyance. "I wanted to take my mate and his friend since day one, you're the one who wanted to 'study' them and stuff. I know you best, if I tell you that the shrimp is perfect for you, you oughta listen!"

Jade glared at Floyd, who stuck his tongue at him, before softly laughing.

"You're right Floyd, of course you know me so well." Jade stared back up at the ship, as if his gaze alone would beckon you to return to him. "The water's warm, there's a storm coming from the east, where they've been traveling."

Jade dove into the water, his brother following him.

"The storm is large and coming soon, and the wood over here is damaged." Jade gestured to a part of the hull that was starting to rot, water slipping in. "If we cause the ship to take in more water, it will sink. They only have a few of those smaller boats, and much too many crew."

Floyd grinned as he caught on to what his brother was implying.

"Everyone will probably be scrambling to get on them boats—"

"Precisely, and with the chaos of a storm, will be much too busy to notice two of their crewmates snatched by a pair of mermen."

The twins shared a conniving laugh, following the ship into an unseen storm in the dark of night.

Something that few people ever mentioned, as it was quite rare, was that once a merperson fell for someone, they also were determined to drag them into the deep, never to be seen again by the people of the surface.

Almost a year ago, or maybe more, I rewatched the entire Pirates of the Caribbean saga and then stumbled upon a short fic titled "My Jolly Sailor Bold" on AO3. And... well, inspiration struck! I created this comic, basing it on the song and drawing inspiration from the fanfic. However, the story is different! Honestly, I don’t remember the author because I made this a long time ago, so if anyone knows who it is, I’d really appreciate it if you let me know! Anyway, since I won’t be able to finish this story in comic format (it’s way too much ;;), it will continue as a small series of written chapters. I’ll be publishing it soon, and I hope you like it once it’s out!

Part 2 of:

[sweetbunpura]

Take what you can. Give nothing back...pt.2

Part 1

Throughout his time spent on Ramshackle, Rollo got to see how Homura's crew function and how Captain Homura commands them. Of course, he also got to meet the other Seven Sovereigns of the NRSeas and hear their very understandable and harsh words they had about him and the Government.

Captain Rosehearts suggests Captain Homura should keep him in the brig for the time being. Captain Kingscholar voices that they should just put him on a lifeboat with some food and water and let him find his own way back. Captain Ashengrotto asks if they can use him for a trade deal. Captain Al-Asim talks about letting Rollo return home only for Second-Mate Viper to cut him off, stating that it's a bad idea to leave him to his own devices.

Captain Schoenheit agrees and scolded Captain Homura for even rescuing him in the first place. Captain Shroud meekly spoke about how it'll be best to just keep Rollo far away from them. Finally, Captain Draconia speaks calmly about the manner of exploding Government ships in the area, which draws in everyone's attention.

While they refuse to talk about that while in the presence of Rollo, they shoo him out of the room and slam the door. Once the summit ends, Yuu places him back on Ramshackle and they said towards one of the islands where he can return home.

....Over time, Rollo finds himself growing attached to the crew and their antics and they welcome him as a makeshift member. He also sees how Captain Yuu is quick to rush towards the aid of defenseless ships if they're being attacked by another pirate ship. Rollo also finds himself growing closer to the Captain of Ramshackle and soon enough....falls in love.

Now, returning to the home port is tough, but Rollo does it in order to relinquish his title and join Yuu's pirate crew. It's there he learns that he was supposed to die that die in order to lure in Yuu...who is the daughter of Tia Dalma....

"Calypso...."

"Indeed, and due to the fact that you failed to bring her to us..."

Searing pain explodes in Rollo's chest and he looks to see a sword had been plunged into his heart.

"You are no longer of use to us."

I know there are inaccuracies but I hope you still enjoy it 🙇‍♀️

SeaSnakes except they're silly little pirates (Pirate AU but even gayer?)

[dhrubajjj]

octaninelle pirate au/seven seas au!

so the idea for these guys is that their ship is one of those on water restaurants, like the baratie from one piece if u know what im talking about. Also the lil shell bit in the ship that i sketched up is where azul's office, i might tweak the ship design but it works for now.

azul - he was the easiest to design since it was heavily based off of his masquerade outfit and i gave him ursula's earrings. in his merform he's probably something like the kraken and he talks about the ship like how people talk about their cars, the ones that like talk about it like it's their child.

also i haven't been able to get that drabble abt idia and azul meeting in a pub and playing cards together. they probably meet in the mostro lounge instead of a random pub and play some magical card fusion of hearthstone + that tcg game from genshin.

jade - he's got a lil mushroom pin and also he's wearing pants that look like a skirt. i gave him a jellyfish haircut and pulled it into the ponytail because a lil voice whispered in my ear and it only felt right. every couple of weeks jade will grow mushrooms in some part of the boat and then azul or floyd will find it and get rid of them, then there's mushroom dishes on the menu for like months.

floyd - personally to me he looks a lil outta place since he's dressed less formally than jade or azul but that's fine. he does have a suit like how jade and azul has one but it's a battle to get him to actually wear it (+ when he does wear it, tends to put him in a nasty mood for a bit). i kept his clothes loose cuz of that and gave him a bunch of shiny jewelry also he has those fidget rings that have the spinny middle part.

i can see him working in the bar rather than taking orders or serving food and floyd probably brags about all his scars to his clients whenever he gets the chance (the scar on his face was from riddle, they had a lovers spat </3)

Y’all like my new sketchbook 🥺🫣

The pirate AU was a great read I just wanna devour it

I can imagine Riddle would not be happy in the slightest to be taken but I can also imagine them being turned into mers eventually (opposite of game canon I guess lol) and I love that idea

-🔆

He's very much not happy, he ran off from home to escape the demons of his past, and here is his least favorite one chasing after him like a lovesick fool!

Leave him alone!!! He doesn't want you!!! Go away Floyd!!!!

Unfortunately for him, Floyd has selective hearing and just hears "Don't leave him alone!! He doesn't want you!! Don't go away Floyd!"

Unfortunately for Riddle and you, once a mer decides on a mate, they're unlikely to let them go. For most merfolk, this is standard and not unexpected. Once they decide on a mate/partner, they will do whatever they can to be with them, the Sea Princess is the biggest evidence of this.

Unfortunately for humans, most merfolk do not have the same wish to live on land as she, and it's common for sailors, beach tourists, and lonesome lighthouse workers to disappear alongside a merperson. This is especially so if the merperson is particularly attached to that human. The remaining merfolk are rarely helpful, as they mind their business and aren't keen to rat out their friends.

It's one of the reasons that people are cautioned against getting too close, physically or emotionally, with merfolk. Out of the thousands of missing persons in the world, a few hundred are attributed to lovestruck merfolk.

But don't worry too much! Jade and Floyd are nothing if not attentive partners...perhaps a bit possessive...but attentive. You'll never spend another moment alone, ever.

[secondary-colorentimy]

ok fine i will draw more of those damn pirates from my au of my au that you guys like so much if you PROMISE to be good 🙄

[cheerleaderman]

*Sigh* pirate outfit drafts , I have to many ideas all at once - bit more on the pirate core side

The captain would have a hat and their crew would have like bandannas or some kind of fabric around their head

Probably will change up Azul’s design

SSR Fallon and Floyd
