#platonic zoro/nami means the world to me

[beanghostprincess]

Nami's guard dog <3

[aishabbbb]

You're just so cute!

Part 1 Strawhats x affectionate! reader Can be read as platonic or romantic Synopsis: You love giving out compliments, especially to your crew mates. Characters: Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Usopp, and Nami

LUFFY

Likes the compliments, especially after Nami berates him.

LOVES compliments on his strength the most, but will beam if you call him smart(since no one else does TT)

Call him pirate king or the greatest pirate and he'll fold immediately.

He is fine with it generally.

Except for being called cute.

Will 1000% pout about it, especially if you call him that in front of Usopp or Chopper cause he wants to be cool yk?

"I'm not cute! What type of pirate is cute!"

Eventually will come around to it begrudgingly(he secretly enjoys it), but will also say it back to you to get you annoyed.

Backfires so bad.

Will try to compliment you back but he kinda sucks.

"You smell like the best meat in the world!"

— Or he is actually very heartfelt and deep out of nowhere

"I love how your eyes dance with the stars."

ZORO

Hates it

Ok he doesn't ACTUALLY hate it, but will act like he does

He will get all fussy about it like "Yeah, whatever." and huff off somewhere.

Will blush anytime you say anything nice about him(all the time) but NEVER lets you see it.

Actually comes to love the attention from you.

ESPECIALLY about his strength and skill.

Call him the best swordsman ever and you MIGHT see him blush since he'll be so off guard. Just might.

Will compliment you back in private, especially if you're dating.

Isn't one to focus on looks when appreciating someone, but will if you just did. Mostly points out your skills.

After some time, he won't feel embarrassed at all and will get a little cocky.

"You are so cool!" "Of course I am."

"Wow Zoro, you are strong." "Just strong? Give me more credit."

HATES if he see's you complimenting Sanji near him.

Brags to him about how cool you say he is.

NAMI

First thinks you compliment her to get out of paying her.

"I'm not going to forgive your debt by sucking up to me."

Once she realizes it's genuine, she changes her attitude.

Feels all giddy inside whenever you say anything sweet about her.

She will smile brightly to you and say thanks whenever you do so.

Doesn't have any compliments she dislikes at all

But she appreciates complimemts on her character a lot more.

Being a (former) theif and conartist makes people have a pre conceived notion of her

So saying she's nice or kind makes her feel very happy.

Will compliment you back a lot.

Mostly on skills and character.

But she does forgive some of your debt because you are kind.

USOPP

Flustered.

He starts stuttering before saying of course!

Tries to stay cool about it but say he is cute or hot and he disappears

With his self esteem, he feels like you don't actually mean what you say.

He WILL ask for assurance if your dating

After realizing you mean it, it will make him feel better about himself

Specifically about his fighting skills

He doesn't think he is that good but you think otherwise

Feels more confident the more you appreciate his talent

Brags about it to everyone

Will uplift you too

Originally to reflect your praise, but later on as actually genuine.

SANJI

Will evaporate

This man gets soooo flustered.

If you thought Usopp was bad, he will redefine the word.

He just can't commute.

Just tries to have any response but ends up babbling.

Honestly, his flusteredness is so cute.

He will get a nosebleed and may faint depending on the type of compliment.

Call him hot or cool and he will get a nosebleed or faint.

Especially if you say he is cool.

But say he is nice—

This man will freeze.

Feels like he doesn't deserve such praise. Especially from you.

Tries to reject the compliment and compliment you back.

"B-b-but Y/N dearest, you are the most kindest, nicest person to EVER grace this earth!"

You never let him reject it.

So he just ends up accepting the praise.

May cry a little sometimes, particularly if you say he is a good person.

Man NEEDS a hug TT

Starts showing off in combat and in general so he can receive praise from you.

Will do something cool and look at you like a puppy until you notice him.

If you don't he pouts off somewhere else.

He will also brag to Zoro about how cool you think he is

Gifts OP Characters Give you for Valentine’s Day

Rating: SFW

A/n: happy Valentine’s Day!! Enjoy this short little thing. Vday is kinda messy for me cuz I’m allergic to chocolate so 😭 Oofie lmao. Chopper is platonic only!!!

Luffy: He is very earnest and most of his “affection” is shown through actions, so he’ll probably be more physically affectionate and want you by his side all day. Would gift you some food to share and maybe a single flower (he accidentally crushed it but it’s so cute)

Zoro: Your favorite drink. He probably would drink lots of sake, but if you don’t drink sake/alcohol in general, he buys you your favorite soda, coffee, tea, or sparkling juice etc. to drink beside you. Prefers a more romantic gesture of drinking at night alone with you under the stars.

Nami: Chocolate covered tangerines. Or if you’re allergic to both/either/don’t care for those, she gives you a nice piece of matching jewelry to wear with her.

Usopp: A heart-shaped device. Dunno what that device would specifically be but it’s probably based on whatever you needed and he decided to spruce it up for you.

Sanji: Mr. Prince does everything. Bugs you two dozen glitter roses, large teddy bears, and heart shaped everythings. Gives the gifts to you all day and makes sure to make a romantic vday dinner with you. Lots of kisses.

Chopper: cotton candy!!! And it’s pink!!! And kinda looks like a heart!! (Please ignore the way he wants to take a bite of it… or don’t and just forfeit all your possessions to him).

Robin: A lovely scrapbook and some flowers. She likes homemade gifts for you and her, so she made sure to buy those for you to always carry the memories you two shared with each other.

Franky: a miniature boat with figures of you and him he dubs the ‘love boat’. It’s so cheesy but it’s so expertly crafted and made you can’t help but be l happy about it.

Brook: a new song just for you. Brook is always happy to perform for you, and you’re his biggest muse so he’s always got you on the brain. He crafts a love song just to express his feelings for you.

Jinbei: a nice new tea and some desserts for you two to indulge in and relax with. Sweets are always better with you <3

Buggy: New makeup and a matching outfit with him. He loves when your outfits complement his so he wants to have you dress up in a similar fashion to him!

Mihawk: Nice homemade meals and a romantic dinner. He’s extra attentive and romantic today, making sure to pepper you in kisses and hold you close to him.

Crocodile: Expensive gifts made with gold and lots of flowers. Excess is the name, and that’s Crocodile’s game. He is happy to present you with a room full of gifts and then murmur to you he is happy to have you beside him the rest of the day (and night).

Law: Says he doesn’t believe in this yet he got you nice (and a healthier version) of some of your favorite foods. Also some flowers too, which he extensively looked up the meaning of so he could confess the feelings he’s too tsun to admit (if you care to notice-)

Corazon: Says you don’t need a gift, since your love is the best gift in the world. Just kidding, he gets you flowers and offers to take the day off to just do whatever you want.

Doflamingo: Awwwww you were expecting flowers? Maybe even chocolates? No, he’s got you a new outfit and you better be ready soon cuz he’s got a reservation at a fancy restaurant for the both of you.

Shanks: Also says you don’t need a gift because he’s the greatest thing ever and your love is just so strong with each other and- okay okay, he’s being serious now. He got you that one trinket you were eyeing at the island back there that you thought he didn’t notice you were eyeing but he did because he’s like that.

Beckman: Gruff man who is offering to take care of you today and make sure you’re completely relaxed and not lifting a finger. If the others try to get you to work, he’s lecturing them. Also wants to just spend time with you quietly.

Ace: Big teddy bear!!! It’s so cute!!! Just like you!!! He had to get it!! Might also accidentally set it on fire from getting flustered when you kiss his cheek.

Sabo: Gentleman- he gets you traditional gifts associated with Valentines Day, but then offers to take you to an untraditional date spot.

Koala: Girl put her hardest effort into making your favorite sweets/food. She wants a romantic meal with you and to spend time not working for a night.

Perona: … hello??? You’re supposed to be getting HER gifts??? She’s a princess, why are you bugging? Okay… she’ll admit, she made you a cute gothic outfit so you can be just as cute as her. She demands romantic movies and cuddles.

Straw Hats x Fem Gardener S/O platonic fluff HCs! The main reason I request this? FLOWER CROWNS! But also, S/O is good at growing crops and flowers, so she must have a greenhouse on deck to grow fruits, tangerines, vegetables, any medicinal herbs, flowers, anything! So helpful and sweet! And also, FLOWER CROWNS!

★ WITH A FEM GARDENER CREWMATE! headcanons ���

── featuring. the strawhats.

── cw. f!reader. no pronouns used. platonic. very brief mention of homesickness. not proofread.

── notepad. sigh i love you platonic and domestic hcs of the strawhats. you complete me <333

never in all of your years did you think you would find yourself gardening on the sea with a group who had come like family to you, a group you couldn't see yourself living without

building your new greenhouse on the deck was a group effort because it was supposed to be a surprise for you

you loved being at sea with the strawhats, you wouldn't trade it for the world. but it didn't stop you from missing home

a spring island somewhere out there, where the love and life are just as plentiful as the beautiful green that covers it

to bring a piece of your home back to you, the strawhats all chip to help make you a greenhouse where you continue your gardening while on the sea. something you never thought you could do

you somehow didn't find out about what they were planning, despite a few of your crewmates being blabbermouths.

after a girl's day in the island port town, you landed on a few days ago with nami and robin, you finally see it.

"surprise!" your crewmates, your family, jumps out all covered in wood chips and paint of all colors. some were covered in more paint than others. you swore your captain was wearing a yellow shirt that day, but with the amount of blue on it, it may as well have been blue.

you love your greenhouse! well, it wasn't just your greenhouse anymore. it was another place for you and your crewmates to spend time together.

it's the perfect place to have early lunches on sunny days and a late dinner on calm and cool nights under warm string lights.

your extensive knowledge of plants and your natural green thumb make you a versatile member of the crew.

on one end of your greenhouse, you were growing medical herbs for chopper's research and medicines. on another side, you made a special place for nami's tangerine trees you helped her take great care of.

on another corner were many vegetables for sanji's amazing dishes. and close by were the sweetest fruits in all of the grand line that would sometimes go missing the next morning

which is why you have decided to start locking up the greenhouse at night.

but who can forget, the flower crowns !!

a small gesture that would have a lasting impact on each of them, all with their own flower that you believed best represented them based on the flowers' meanings and your crew's personalities.

luffy puts his crown around his hat. when the flowers start to die and lose their color, he will become sad and ask you to make another one for him to replace it.

zoro was confused as to what exactly you wanted him to do with it until you motioned for him to put it on his head. it's uhhh...definitely not for him. but you're like a sister to him so if you flash puppy eyes, he'll wear it

sanji finds the crown you made for him adorable. he finds you even more charming for going out of your way to make it for him. he doesn't deserve such gifts from you but he is happy to wear them to make you happy. he preserves them so he can hold onto them forever.

robin definitely helps you make the flower crowns with all those extra pairs of hands that she has. like sanji, robin preserves the flower crowns that you give her. she will take a piece of them and put them in resin to make homemade jewelry from.

jinbei is your favorite to make flower crowns for. with all of his long beautiful hair, you are constantly putting big, colorful flowers in his hair because he sits there and just lets you do it. sometimes he'll even put flowers in your hair. flower pals !!

brook, like jinbei, enjoys it when you put flower crowns and stick flowers in his hair over cups of tea.

usopp pretends that he doesn't want one, but he secretly does. so after he politely declines and you (pretend to) take his word for it and walk away, he's so sad. pls no, give it to him !!

chopper loves making flower crowns with you. he could make them all day. he loves wearing several of them on his antlers, so he can spin, turn, and dance and they flow in the wind.

nami loves extravagant flower crowns. the bigger and more colorful, the better. she will throw little hints that she really wants one made of sunflowers and roses, such as saying how much she really REALLY wants one, and will sigh out loud when she's in front of the flowers. so when you actually surprise her with one, she's so happy she could squeeze the life out of you. you're her favorite for a reason

franky is so gentle with his flower crown. he's terrified that he may accidentally break or bruise the flowers that you worked so hard to put together. he will pull out the tiny yellow hand to put it on or take it off. he is going to make this thing last !!

Zoro x reader

Platonic Sanji x reader

Some thoughts of our favourite cook with a friend just like him.

_________________________________________

"Hey Sanji~" (Y/n) said with a sing song voice. Both Strawhats stood side by side as they watched the ship decend even further underwater. The coating keeping everyone safe from being crushed by the pressure.

(Y/n) made sure to wear clothes that didn't reveal too much, opting to stay warm just as Robin had warned. Plus she didn't need her friend having a nosebleed.

"Where were you during the two years?" She asked, " You never told me."

Sanji looked traumatized. He held onto his chest to stop his heart from stopping at the horror-filled memories.

"I was in hell. Every second there was..." The poor man couldn't even finish his sentences. His face had gone deathly pale.

"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO YOU?" She asked. Concerned at what he had gone through.

🥘🔎🥘🔎🥘🔎🥘🔎🥘🔎🥘🔎🥘��🥘🔎

( Y/n ) watched as Sanji dived towards all the mermaids. She was honestly asking herself how she was friend with that pervert.

"Sometimes I really wanna know why me and that idiot over there are friends. Doesn't he have class?" She shook her head at his actions.

"Don't act all goody two shoes, you're both cut from the same cloth." Ussop judged the woman. His eyes squinted accusingly.

"HOW?!" (Y/n) reacted, shark shaped teeth bared. She was prepared to argue her case like a lawyer.

"Just a few minutes ago when we met up at Sabaody. Don't you remember?"

Flashback

"Looks like we're all finally here." (Y/n) said to herself.  Making sure to take count of everyone. She sat down and watched as the ship started going underwater. She could hear an argument between Zoro and Sanji.

"Just admit that you're outmatched number seven." Zoro smirked.

"Just because you got here first doesn't mean you're better than everybody!" Sanji yelled back, annoyed.

"I don't need to be better than everybody, just better than you."

'Oooohhhhhh. Sanji can't recover from that one. But I can. '

Just before (Y/n) could go rescue her friend, she took a good look at Zoro.  He seemed to have gotten taller and a lot more stronger in the last two years and that outfit change made wonders.

(Y/n)'s eyes turned to hearts. Ussop was able to catch this transformation live. His eyes widening at the speed.

"ZOROOOOOOOO~" She began, twirling toward the swordsman. Sanji's cigarette dropped of its own accord. The love tornado nearing in their direction looked dangerous.

"Huh?" Zoro caught sight of the approaching tornado. Well, sh*t.

Unbeknownst to them Nami had tapped Robin's shoulder so they could see the event about to take place.

The tornado caught Sanji and threw him to the side gently before slowing to a stop.

A rose was held up to Zoro as (Y/n) kneeled with one knee on the ground. Flowers had magically appeared around the Sunny  and  sparkles shone around the woman's eyes.

"Roronoa Zoro, you look as gorgeous as ever," she began. " No man in the world could be as handsome as you. The heavens took their time to carefully craft you and believe me, I adore the results."

Sanji's mouth fell to the floor from where he had graciously landed. He couldn't believe the betrayal.

"Get away from me, woman!" Zoro yelled but he didn't seem to shoo her away. Instead his cheeks had lightly dusted with some light pink. He averted his eyes grumbling to himself.

"You don't seem to want me to go away though," she smirked at him leaning forward till their noses nearly touched. She was on her tippy toes.  Her index finger and thumb kept his head in place so he couldn't escape.

Zoro froze in shock. This woman will be the death of me.

Sanji tornadoed towards the two and stole (Y/n) away leaving Zoro discombobulated and slightly flustered. Even after two years of everyone not seeing each other, the woman still managed to have an effect on him.

Flashback over

"That was one time!"  She tried to defend herself.

"Oh really, some of the things you say and do are more questionable that what Sanji does." Ussop continued.

"Like?" The woman crossed her arms, waiting for the sniper's explanation.

FLASHBACK

"If those guys weren't trying to hurt Big sis Robin, I woulda said smash."

Everyone at the train looked at her in shock. She was just looking outside and watching the perilous waves of Aqua Laguna with a dejected sigh.It seemed she was voicing her thoughts out loud.

When she caught their eyes on her she shrugged,"What? Just saying it like it is. But if they do hurt Robin I'm ready to up my kill count."

Another time

"Where did you get all those ropes Paulie," (Y/n) questioned the man. Everyone in the sea train was busy with their own thing but some were wondering the same thing. "It's kinda creepy."

"Well I–" he tried to defend himself but was interrupted.

"Creepy, but kinky."😏

Zoro pulled the woman away from Paulie and trapped her between his arms and placing her on his lap, effectively stopping her from talking. 'No.'

"SHE'S SO BOLD!" Both the Galley La and Franky Family yelled.

Nami smiled to herself. Ussop owed her a lot of money.

(The bet was how long she could go without saying something risky)

Another time

(Y/n) watched as Zoro brought Chopper back from nearly being eaten by sky sharks."Chopper are you alright?" For once the woman wasn't being a tornado, her eyes showed the worry for her reindeer friend.

"He'll be alright." Zoro stated. He took of his t-shirt. And went to find a new one.

He took of the shirt?!

He took it off.

(Y/n) froze. A war raged between her heart and mind. Turn around to look or have some decency and not look. She started sweating. Nami caught sight of her unusual posture and shook her which ended up making (Y/n) have a glimpse of Zoro changing into a blue vest in her peripheral.

"(Y/n) what's wrong, are you alright?"

The woman fainted. Well, not exactly. She was still awake but had hearts flying around her and her face was super warm.

"I think  Ms Spy is a little too excited from seeing our swordsman here. " Robin diagnosed. A chuckle escaping her lips.

"Seriously you and that ero-cook are  just unbelievable." Zoro sighed in annoyance.

"But what's that red colour on your fac3?" Chopper pointed out, basically snitching on Zoro.

Another time

"Guys this is my brother Ace." Luffy announced. 

"Ace here's my crew. Nami's the navigator, Zoro's the swordsman and also my firstmate, Chopper's the doctor , Sanji is the cook and (Y/n) is the spy."

Ace had taken a look at every one before meeting eyes with (Y/n). It seemed that Sanji had already placed tape on her mouth and had tied her up. All that anyone could see was the woman's heart shaped eyes.

Everyone breathed out a sigh of relief much to Ace's confusion and Zoro's irritation.

Flashback over

"In short, that's why you two are best friends."Ussop concluded, pointer finger in the air and a whiteboard behind with various drawings of the scenes . "Plus you two are great at combat when paired."

(Y/n) was walking away from Ussops lesson. "WHERE ARE YOU GOING?"

"I'm gonna find Zoro,"

"With what?"

"MY LOVE COMPASS OF COURSE!" The woman said as she twirled away with hearts revolving around her.Ussop sighed at her antics.

"ZORO-SWEET! WHERE ARE YOU?!"

One Piece | Shanks LeRoux x platonic!f!Marine!LeRoux!reader (x Monkey D. Luffy) ~ Deserteur, PT.2

The Sabaody Archipelago bustled with activity, a vibrant blend of laughter, shouts, and the unmistakable energy of pirates and adventurers preparing to set sail for their dreams. The sun hung high in the sky, casting a warm glow over the numerous ships lining the harbor. But amidst the laughter and chaos, you felt a heaviness in your chest, a mixture of anxiety and excitement.

Your name—Shanks’ daughter and a deserteur—had become known throughout the seas, and the bounty on your head had made headlines across the Grand Line. After the chaos of Marineford, where you fought alongside Luffy and witnessed the tragic loss of your brother Ace, you had made a decision to stand by your loved ones, to carve out your own path away from the Marines.

Now, standing on the docks of Sabaody, you could feel the weight of the world on your shoulders. You had heard Luffy’s call to adventure since childhood, a promise he made you do long ago, to follow under him when the time was right. And now, as you stood at the edge of this new life, you had to know if he still wanted you to join him on his journey.

Taking a deep breath, you moved through the crowd, determination guiding you despite the uncertainty swirling in your mind. You remembered the last time you had seen Luffy; two years ago, the memories of that day at Marineford played vividly in your head—the pain, the loss, the fire in Luffy’s eyes as he fought for Ace. You had been lost in the chaos of grief and violence, but now you were ready to step forward, ready to embrace whatever came next.

As you reached the docks, your heart raced at the sight of the Thousand Sunny. The ship was beautiful, alive with colors and energy, reflecting the spirit of its crew. You spotted Luffy standing on the deck, laughter spilling from his lips as he interacted with his crewmates. They were preparing for their next adventure, but when he turned, his laughter faded, replaced by a look of pure astonishment.

“[Y/N]?” Luffy exclaimed, his eyes widening as he jumped down from the ship to meet you. You could see the surprise and joy flooding his face, and suddenly, all your fears melted away.

“Luffy,” you said, your voice barely above a whisper. You felt the years of separation and longing rush back in a wave, filling the space between you. “Do you still want me to join your crew?”

His grin returned in an instant, infectious and full of warmth. “Of course! I’ve always wanted you to come with me!” He stepped closer, an energy radiating from him that made your heart flutter. The world around you seemed to fade away, leaving only the two of you.

The crew, however, stood a bit back, exchanging confused glances. They didn’t know who you were, this woman who had just appeared before them. Nami raised an eyebrow, her expression skeptical, while Sanji’s eyes widened in admiration, but there was also a hint of confusion as he tried to gauge your significance to the captain.

“Wait, who is she?” Zoro asked, his arms crossed, leaning against the railing with a casual air that belied his intense curiosity. “And why does she look so familiar?”

You felt a rush of laughter bubbling up at the questions flying your way, but before you could respond, Luffy took a step forward, the joyful energy around him palpable. “This is [Y/N]! She’s Shanks’ daughter! And she’s my childhood friend! She’s gonna join our crew!”

A ripple of shock and surprise ran through the crew. Usopp’s jaw dropped, and Robin raised an eyebrow, intrigued. “Shanks’ daughter?” she echoed, a glimmer of interest sparking in her gaze. “The one who deserted the Marines?”

“Exactly!” Luffy said, practically bouncing on his feet. “She’s been with me since we were kids!”

“Wow, that’s pretty crazy,” Franky said, nodding appreciatively, clearly impressed by your lineage. “But that means you’ve got a big bounty on your head now, right?”

The realization seemed to settle over them, the crew’s surprise shifting to a mix of admiration and respect. But it was Luffy’s gaze that held you captive, and in that moment, the noise around you faded away again. There was something electric in the air, a connection that had always existed between the two of you, a love shared between you since you were teens.

Luffy stepped closer, his eyes locked onto yours. “I missed you so much,” he said, his voice sincere, a tone that made your heart race. “You’ve been gone for too long. I’ve thought about you every day.”

A warm blush crept onto your cheeks, and the laughter of the crew faded into the background as you took a deep breath, steeling your nerves. You had wanted to tell him for years—wanted to say again what you had last said the night before Garp had took you away, what had been left unsaid for far too long.

“I love you,” you confessed, your heart racing. “You were always my adventure, Luffy. I wanted to be by your side. And now it's finally my time.”

And in a moment that felt both surreal and beautifully ordinary, he closed the distance between you, capturing your face in his hands. His thumb brushed against your cheek, and you could feel the warmth radiating from him. Then, without hesitation, Luffy leaned in and kissed you, a sweet, earnest kiss that sent the butterflies racing in your stomach again.

It felt like coming home, making your mind switch back to stolen kisses in the tree house or in your bedroom above Makinos bar.

As he pulled away, a beaming smile spread across his face, the joy and mischief dancing in his eyes that you had so drastically missed the past few years. “Now you’re really part of my crew!” he declared, his enthusiasm infectious. Laughter bubbled up from the crew, a mix of cheers and playful teasing. It was a strange but comforting realization that you had finally taken the step you had longed for.

You looked around at the crew, the warmth of their acceptance washing over you. There was a sense of belonging that you had craved for so long, and it felt exhilarating to know that you were finally here, with Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates.

As you boarded the Thousand Sunny, you felt a renewed sense of purpose and adventure fill your spirit. This was your life now, and together, you would face whatever the Grand Line had in store for you.

Standing beside Luffy, watching as the crew prepared to set sail, you felt a thrill of excitement course through you. The horizon stretched out ahead, a canvas of endless possibilities waiting to be explored. With your heart pounding in your chest, you took a deep breath, ready to embrace this new chapter of your life.

“Let’s go!” Luffy shouted, his voice ringing with uncontainable excitement. “To the New World!”

And as the ship began to sail away from Sabaody Archipelago, you knew that your adventure was just beginning. Together with Luffy and his crew, you were ready to make new memories, face new challenges, and carve your own path in a world filled with dreams and danger.

You were no longer just Shanks’ daughter or a deserter; you were [Y/N], a Straw Hat pirate.

Soul mate au were you see color for the first time after Touching your soulmate

And when your soulmate dies the world is black and white

OKAY I'VE SEEN THIS BEFORE AND DO U KNOW HOW MUCH IT DESTROYED ME???

Not Necessarily Romantic Soulmates Because Aro People Exist - that being said I could just make this another platonic soulmate au where the whole strawhat crew are all eachothers soulmates but No <3

Colour-seeing status upon joining the strawhats:

Luffy: Grayscale - not looking for a soulmate, doesn't want the universe to tell him what to do but used to dream abt finding his soulmate when he was little because his soulmate would mean he's never alone again, right?... Right?

Zoro: Grayscale - He saw colours as a child, Kuina was his (platonic) soulmate, but she died. He doesn't remember what colour moss is but he keeps correcting people that insult him to That Insult because he's not a grass head, he's a moss head.

Nami: Grayscale - avoids touching people because she doesn't want or think she deserves a soulmate

Usopp: Colours - Luffy touched him before he joined the crew

Sanji: Colours - He's always seen in colours, his brothers have also always seen in colours. It's a tactical disadvantage to not see in colours. He doesn't want to think about what that means for his possibility of having a soulmate.

Vivi: Colours - though it's kind of ambiguous when Vivi stopped just traveling with the strawhats and became part of the crew, she found her colours when she touched Nami.

Chopper: Deer vision - hes a deer

Robin: Grayscale - doesn't think she has a soulmate

Franky: Grayscale - doesn't think he can find his soulmate since there's so little left to touch that's Him (yes this is frobin slowburn eat me)

Brook: Grayscale - Saw in colours before Yorki died, hallucinates in colour

Jimbe: Grayscale - Watched his colours drain away over Fish Tiger's corpse

Pirate Bias

Pairing: Nico Robin x reader

Content: reader is a straw hat/ pirate fan (just like me fr), a little nervous around their fave, robin! could be sent as platonic or romantic since its just a first meeting! part of my 100 follower event <3

Word Count: 0.8k

A/N: (cringe title? perhaps…) I'm not really into kpop so I hope I used the term “bias” correctly lol :) also I haven't really edited this super closely yet, so if there are grammar mistakes I'm sorry about that!!!! pls enjoy, ty to the anon who requested!

The last thing you expected to see upon entering the bar for a midday pick me up, or the last people you expected to meet rather, were the Strawhat Pirates. Yet there they were, in all their glory: from the boyish captain to the grandiose cyborg, the latest addition to their crew. Still in a state of disbelief, your eyes scan the bar trying to get a headcount on every one of them.

And low and behold- almost the entire crew is somewhere within the dimly lit bar. Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper are gathered around an old arcade machine. Zoro and Nami are at the bar, and Sanji and Franky are eating at one of the few regular tables. It's kind of strange to see them all in such a normal setting, acting like normal people instead of, well, The Strawhat Pirates. “What are they doing here, of all places?” You wonder. The only one you don’t spot is one Nico Robin, with her gorgeous black hair and blue eyes. Perhaps she’s watching their ship; you’d heard that was common for pirates, to leave someone to watch the ship since being attacked was always a possibility.

However, your curiosity is overridden by the pure excitement in your veins. To say you're a fan of the Strawhat Pirates would be an understatement- you had followed their story closely through the World News ever since the events of Alabasta. You thought they were just what the world needed: people who fought for such righteous ideals as freedom and happiness and peace. Still, Robin is your favorite, so it is just the slightest bit disappointing that she isn’t among the others. If she was, you’d surely approach her and strike up a conversation, even compliment her on something. Her intelligence, her power, her beauty…

“Hi there.” A calm voice greets you to your left.

You turn your cheek and blink in astonishment when you find Nico Robin in the bar stool next to yours.

“Oh- hi!”

“You’ve been watching my friends. Why is that?”

“I- I’m so sorry, I didn’t think anyone would notice, um… I just, well, I’ve heard all about you guys from the World News, and, gosh this is embarasing, I just think you’re a really cool crew!”

Robin tilts her head and leans her head on her hand. You can’t decide if she’s suspicious or -, so you continue rambling. “I don’t mean you any harm, really I… I have your wanted poster on my wall!”

At this shocking and unintentional reveal, Robin quirks a brow and her lips twitch up in the subtlest of smiles. “Is that so?” She laughs politely behind her hand. “I didn’t know I had a fan!”

“Well, y-yeah, I guess you do!” You laugh along, albeit more awkwardly.

Robin hums contemplatively. “So, are you on a crew yourself? Or a marine division perhaps?“

You shake your head rapidly. “No, no I… I couldn’t live that kind of life. I’m not as strong as you guys…”

“That’s too bad,” she smiles softly, “I’d love to get to know you better.”

“Really?” You didn’t mean to sound like such a fan, but you couldn’t help it. It was Nico Robin, for fuck’s sake; she was practically your pirate bias!

“Mhm. What’s your name?”

You smile back and shake her hand. Her grip isn’t espescialy firm, but it is stable. “Y/n, it’s very nice to meet you.”

“Nico Robin,” she nods and extends her hand- the one she isn’t resting her chin on- toward you in greeting, “but I suppose you already knew that.”

You can barely contain the way your smile breaks out into a grin. “Yeah, I did.”

“So, I expect you want an autograph then?”

Your mouth gapes- is she serious? Not that you’d turn down an autograph from the Nico Robin, but… isn’t that kind of a weird thing to ask for? Especially when all you want is just to talk to her, and get to know her better, too.

“I’m kidding.” She laughs again, but it’s more unrestrained this time around. Then she looks around the bar at her crew mates, and back at you. “Come on, y/n. Let me introduce you to the others.”

[shima-draws]

Happy Halloween/X-mas!

I got a Halloween prompt in for my Secret Santa so I jumped at the chance <3 I hope they like it [they don't have a tumblr but posting it here also @op-secret-santa

Sabo and Ace throw an awesome Halloween party for the people they care the most about. PLATONIC Word Count: 965

“Think this is the year we tell Luffy he’s getting way too old for Trick or Treating?” Ace asked as he climbed up on the chair, hands full of fake cobwebs and a roll of sticky tape, the intention of sticking the webs across the ceiling of their apartment.

“I mean, he seems happy enough to keep going and he’s not dragged us out in a minute so, I don’t think it’ll be the end of the world if he puts on a cape and goes screaming through the streets for candy, right? Keeps him out of trouble and eating everything we put out for the party.” Sabo replied and picked up the scattered magazines from the table.

“I guess your right,”

Ace shrugged his shoulders as he focused on his task, pulling the tape taut and using his teeth to cut it, a wad of cobwebs in the other hand, sticking it across the ceiling. Sabo watched for a moment making sure his brother didn’t fall off the chair, again.

“How many people are we expecting this year?” Sabo asked as he retrieved his phone from his pocket, looking at all the notifications, seeing messages from those he’d invited to their yearly Halloween party.

“Oh shit, now your asking.” He sighed and finished sticking the last string of white nylon covered in tiny fake black spiders in place. “Marco, Thatch, Izou… Kiku… Yam’s… I think all of Luffy’s friends are coming over when he finishes up…” Ace paused, thinking of the guest invites in his head as Sabo flopped on the couch.

“Koala is my only confirmed guest..” Sabo sighed and tapped his foot on the plush carpet, looking over in time to see Ace almost fall off the chair as he climbed down. “Eh, she’s the only fun one anyway so it doesn’t matter right?” Ace offered with a grin.

“That’s true, the rest are busy working, and no one seems as into Halloween as me.”

“Man, no one is as into Halloween as me you, and Luffy though, most people are normal about it.” Ace grinned, his freckled cheeks rounding as he could tell he was making his brother’s mood change, the frown melting away into a matching grin.

“Yeah, that’s a good point.”

–

Ace and Sabo spent the rest f the afternoon rushing around, decorating, and carving pumpkins to set around the apartment. It was a lot of effort and work but was something they both loved, it helped them feel closer as brothers, something they could always agree on.

Sabo was in the kitchen looking at how many beers they’d stuffed in the fridge along the shelves that didn’t have food. People always thought the brothers brought in help when it came to hosting their Halloween parties but no one really knew how put together and handy around the kitchen Ace was.

Both had headed into their respective rooms, rushing to get dressed for the party. Ace wore his cheesy werewolf costume, fake ears, paws, ripped jeans, and his chest on display. Sabo had gone for something fancier, and something that covered more of himself. A grim reaper in a vintage-looking cloak, gloves on his hands, and some dark makeup.

The doorbell rang and alerted them of their first guest, they made bets on who it was as Ace walked down the hall, opened the door, and saw his three best friends standing there. Thatch dressed as a pirate, Marco as a bat, and Izou as the bride of Frankenstein. Ace grinned and stepped back, letting them all in.

Koala didn’t take long to arrive with the other girls, Nami and Robin, Kiku. All dressed in matching outfits, looking beautiful. Ace was about to compliment Kiku when he felt an aura emitting from Izou in the corner and simply welcomed her to his home.

The rest of their guests came in one big group,  Luffy letting himself in with everyone piled behind him. Usopp, Brook, Franky, Sanji, Zoro and Yamato. The party suddenly got very, very loud, and even more life was injected into the get-together.

Everyone dressed up, milling around their apartment, catching up with friends, having drinks, and eating snacks before Ace, Sabo, and Luffy got to them all first. Marco sat with Ace on the sofa as people chatted and swayed to the cheesy music.

“You did great everyone's having a good time,” Marco said sipping his beer and watching Ace stretch out his legs, the beaming look of pride on his face. “Yeah, we didn’t do too bad huh?” Ace sighed, happy as Sabo suggested spooky-themed games to which there was a collective cheer.

The night grew longer as games were played. Sabo was in charge of the first few games before Ace picked himself off the sofa to join in. At some point the music was turned from songs to spooky sound effects, someone had dimmed the lights, and Ace and Sabo had helped usher everyone into a circle around the room.

“Ghost story time!” Thatch proclaimed as Ace got comfy on the floor, Sabo sat next to him cross-legged as Luffy draped himself across his brothers with a loud giggle.

Everyone took it in turns to tell spooky stories, Thatch always the king of them, making everyone (well, not Robin) sit on the edge of their seats, biting their nails and gripping the cushions as he told his.

Ace leaned in, intently listening before Thatch shouted, a jumpscare, he jumped and elbowed Sabo who was laughing at him, Luffy in fits of giggles and was rolled off of their laps until he was in the center of the room. Everyone now laughing at their friend's outburst.

The party was so full of life and joy as friends and found family all enjoyed the night.  

[beanghostprincess]

Thoughts on queerplatonic Zoro/Nami?

!!!!!!!!!!! I love them. I think I have said this quite a lot already but the dynamic between Zoro and Nami is so interesting and sweet to me.

Something about Nami being seemingly weak but showing she has been through a lot and being one of the strongest members of the crew and Zoro acknowledging that and admiring her for that but protecting her every time she needs help because he knows what she's capable of. Nami knowing Zoro carries a burden all by himself and trying to help even though he doesn't want her to because that's just how they work.

Their personalties clash a lot but they understand each other so well when needed and share the bond of being the first crew members to join Luffy!!! They act like they can't stand each other but actually they share such a deep bond and love,,,, It's insane. Gay/Lesbian but you never know if it's solidarity or hostility, they're just there supporting each other and sometimes yelling at each other too.

Since I'm a multishipper I love lots of ships within the crew I believe that a lot of them are just in a poly relationship, but Nami and Zoro have always been the ones on each corner of the polycule because I don't consider their dynamic to be romantic at all, but it is deeper than just a simple friendship. So QPR Zonami is more than welcome in my headcanons because they're just that sweet.

[tonberry-yoda]

What do u think the straw hats reactions to arriveing in our world and a bunch of people fawning simping over them

Just their overall reaction to it

This is what i think:

Luffy: confused af, he just thinks everyone wants to be friends and that our world is just filled with really really friendly ppl

Zoro: getting flustered bc of the amount of attention he’s getting(he’s not used to it)

Sanji: absolutely loving the attention, I think he’d be a lil confused on why hes getting so much attention (even from the male gaze) but will still be loving it

Usopp: an absolute flustered mess, he’s still telling his lies but is genuinely confused on why or how hes getting so much attention

Nami: kind of feels weirded out by the attention and why she’s getting it, but quickly starts using it to her advantage

Robin: finds it kinda amusing(let’s be honest, she’s used to it even in her world) kind of gets a little spooked when she discovers that we all somehow know everything abt her XD

Franky: taken aback by everyone running him over, probably gets the most overwhelmed by everything and probably try’s to get away from everyone

Chopper(PLATONIC): gets embarrassed by the amount of compliments and gets kinda scared by everyone so he either hides behind Robin or Zoro

Im curious on what u think how they’d react to this XD

OH THIS IS FUNNNNN!!

And I agree with all of yours omg how cute!

For me, here's what I think!

Luffy: he wouldn't care I don't think, I mean he would love the attention since he does wanna be king of the pirates, but he would be oblivious to anyone thinking he's hot because of how he is with Boa lolol

Zoro: would act SUPER pissy. like he would hate the attention and be flustered and angy about it

Sanji: FLUSTERED TO THE MAX! He isn't used to girls flirting back, so he would be so blushy and over the moon

Usopp: flustered and confused. he's pretty insecure, so he wouldn't expect such positive and thirsty comments LMFAO

Nami: she already lives like this, so nothing new LMFAO

Robin: it would be new for her, but she would be indifferent, and maybe a little flattered, giggling it off

Franky: BAFFLED. Like bro wouldn't expect it. And then oops me and him end up dating... that's too bad (tee hee)

Brook: (just cuz me and my sister are simps) bro would pass away (again) and just be super joyous about it and all giggly lolol

Chopper(PLATONIC): bro would be flustered to the MAX and hide behind everyone. and then Nami would make a business of 100 berries per pet for him sdkfjkjdsfkjlfd

Thanks for the fun question, I loved this one <3

[takaraphoenix]

for your gen ask game, one piece maybe?

Oh, thanks for playing! Fun one!

My favorite parent-child relationship: well damn, starting off with the real tough ones in the All Parents Are Chronically Dead fandom (we don't count Dragon). Bellmere with Nami and Nojiko? I think of all the parents who died for their children, something about Bellmere always hits me the hardest

My favorite sibling relationship: ACE AND LUFFY. Sabo too if I can have three, but the Ace and Luffy dynamic in particular means the fucking world to me holy shit. Also shout-out to Nojiko and Nami though

My favorite family relationship (other): whatever the fuck Mihawk, Perona and Zoro have going on, that man adopted those two they are now his children and the dynamic between all three of them is genuinely like THE most beloved platonic dynamic of mine, I adore them so fucking much

My favorite friendship between two people: Zoro and Luffy, for sure, the captain and his unwavering loyal first mate, they are so amazing. Special shout-out to Nami and Usopp though, my favorite cowards <3

My favorite friendship between a group: okay so obviously like just the whole Strawhat Crew that is a given

My favorite mentorship: Shanks and Luffy I mean we would not have this show without them, literally, shit, I love Shanks so much

My favorite rivalry: mmmh okay yeah no I have been staring at this blankly for a minute now, my brain crashed, too many potential answers on account of So So Many Rivalries

My favorite hatred/antipathy: Sanji and Zoro :D

My favorite potential relationship between characters who never talk in canon: the only one I had actually got to interact and they became friends and that's still funny to me (Rebecca and Vivi. Thank you, Levely Arc <3)

Gen Relationship Ask Game

[imaeraser]

can I request headcanons of the strawhats having a teenage member of the crew who has the angel devil fruit and is really powerful but lazy and never fights.

Sure!

(Platonic Straw hats Headcannons)

Luffy

He thinks your devil fruit is cool

Will ask you to show him your wings

He automatically assumed you were kinda weak

Seeing that you were strong, made his jaw drop, and sparkles appear in his eyes

“Ehhh, why didn’t you tell me you could do that earlier?”

Will not stop asking you to show off your cool moves

But when you don’t (since you’re lazy) he starts acting like a whiny baby

You might entertain him for a bit, but sleep triumphs, all right?

Whenever you unfurl your wings= automatic sparkly eye

Kinda annoying

Zoro

Doesn’t care for your devil fruit

Although he can get entranced sometimes— but that’s just the wings

Also assumed that you were weak, since a) you’re lazy, and b) you’re young

That means he automatically feels the need to protect you

I mean a kid can’t fend for themselves… right?

Wrong, at least for you it is

He was 100% shocked

I mean he could sense that you’re strong, but with the frequent conjoined naps he brushed the feeling off

He will have a new respect for you, but will still treat you like a kid

Nami

Thinks that your wings are really pretty

I think she would also get you to manipulate people (for deals) using your angelic like presence

But she would feel bad afterward

She does hate the fact that you’re so lazy though. She delegates the tasks on the ship, so when you don't do them… let’s just say there is a lot of yelling

She would also have the automatic need to protect you

Who let a teen sail on the grand line… oh yeah, Luffy

When you guys get into a dire situation, and you show how powerful you are…

She is grateful and scared

She Will still try to protect you, but when she realizes she can do much less for you compared to what you can do yourself, she gets kinda sad

Usopp

think’s your devil fruit is cool, but isn’t too amazed by it

He doesn't care that you’re lazy either

And he will try to act like a brave older brother (and he won’t cower behind you when a threat is coming)

But when you finally fight, his jaw drops and he goes pale

When did you get so powerful?

Will never talk down to you again (even in a joking way)

Respect went up, as well as terror

He’ll still mess around with you

But he will now cower behind you when he’s scared (be prepared for that)

Sanji

Likes your devil fruit

I think he likes the idea of angels

And since you have angel wings, and are still young, he thinks of you as a doll

He is super sweet to you, and always talks with a baby voice

Doesn't mind that your lazy, again you’re still young

And he will at all costs protect you (unless there is a really attractive lady that needs saving, and then he needs to re-evaluate his morals)

But when he realizes you are strong, the idea of you being cute and innocent just shatters

When you go back to being lazy he is just so confused

Does not know how to act, does he treat you like a kid or as an adult now? I don’t think he’ll ever know what to do

Chopper

Your devil fruit is similar to his in a way?

And by that I mean it affects your body and makes it develop “irregularities”

He is very fascinated because he’ll have to study your wings to find ways to treat them if they ever get hurt

He will also try to act like a big, cool older brother

He Will try to do anything in his power to protect you too

Also didn’t think bringing you onboard was a good idea… but Luffy’s gonna do Luffy

He doesn’t like the fact that you are lazy since it makes Nami mad = the whole ship is in chaos

When he realizes that you’re strong he will be amazed

It Falls under the sparkly eyes category

Will strive to be as strong as you

Robin

She thinks your devil fruit is interesting

Especially your angelic pres sense and how it can be used to manipulate others (she come from a dark background, okay)

Is the ultimate mom

Does not mind the fact that you are lazy because she doesn't think you should be doing any of this anyways

I think she would give you books to read, and she’ll chuckle when you fall asleep trying to read it

Will also try to protect you (she tries to protect everyone)

She’s often worried, due to your age, and she also sees you as harmless due to your angelic aura

Let’s just say her image of you was shattered as well when you pummeled the enemy

The equivalent of Franky saying bad things in Chopper’s body

Franky

Isn’t very interested in your devil fruit

But he thinks the wings are fun

He assumes the big brother position— the actual cool one

Frequent head pats

If you find a blanket that was placed on you during a nap, that was him (or Jinbei, or Robin)

Will hand you a bottle of Cola and mess up your hair with his tiny set of hands

Gets kinda annoyed when you don’t do chores, but he feels bad when Nami chews you out

Also feels the need to protect you

When he realizes you're strong, he also gets kinda sad. You aren’t the innocent angel he thought you were

Brook

Like Franky, not very interested. In your devil fruit, but he thinks it's cool

He feels at peace near you, so he likes to play you a song as you drift away to nap

He thinks it's kinda funny when Nami yells at you

But he isn’t annoyed at your lazy tendencies

He thinks that you should be treated like a kid, so he often picks up your slack and does your chores for you

He likes to tell you stories of the world long before you were born

Also feels the need to protect you

When he realized you were strong, he was pleasantly surprised

Proud dad moment

Jinbei

Kinda sees your devil fruit as normal (Fishman all look different, so it would only make sense if humans did too… kinda)

Kinda acts like your dad

He will scold you for being lazy

But he does feel bad since he feels like you’re too young to be on a ship— then again Luffy is only 19 (still technically a teen)

He tries to teach you how to sail the ship, but when you show no motivation he doesn't push it

He’ll also try to teach you other things, but none of them work out

Will protect you

But when he realizes you are strong, his mouth is just left gaping

Can’t decide if he’s proud or sad (since you are not just a little angel anymore 😭)

[snowflakeanimelover]

Hello Kate!

I readed some of your writings and I...They're so good that I can't stop reading them again and again that's why..

If it's make you feel uncomfortable - plesde ignore this message. I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable in way possible.

Can I have a small story about Platonic Strawhats (Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Nami, Robin, Franky, Chopper and Brook from One Piece) with Teen! Female! Reader?

By that I mean, Y/n became their crewmate very long time ago (after Zoro joined) and despite do not have any devil fruit abilities - she was kind of pillow of support in the crew. Always kind and understanding towards the crew but sometimes she is really shy with people.

However, one day - the pirate crew approach them and they were one of the crew that Y/n was been before Strawhats. They had not really intentions about Y/n from the start - they wanted to use her trust for their own good but Y/n run away after she find out about it.

I just really interested what they gonna do. But, again if you feel uncomfortable - please ignore this.

Take care of yourself and eat healthy!

Have a great day!

Oh my goodness🥺 everyone is just so kind. I’m so glad you like my writing! It makes me super happy to hear that! I really hope you enjoy this one!

Also I haven’t finished the show so the characters are all up to when Robin joins. Sorry about that!

And you take care of yourself, too!

(Y/N) never really understood pirates. Sure, she’s been in a ruthless pirate crew before, and in a better one now, but she still can’t understand them. Understand their motive.

Luffy has told her many times that his goal is to find the One Piece. But what is his motive to find it? To look for it?

(Y/N) would never know, and perhaps she doesn’t want to know. She felt comfortable where she is now. Comfortable with the home she has now. With the real friends.

She never thought she’d say that. Real friends. Gosh, she was so overjoyed to say that and hear it out loud, she could throw a party for it.

Of course she’d never do that.

She woke up that morning with a smile. Finding herself smiling all day, matter of fact. Even her crew members got suspicious.

“Are you the real (Y/N)? You’ve never smiled this much.” Sanji cringes at her, a cigarette in hand.

Usopp was too scared to say anything, nodding to agree with Sanji.

“Yeah. It’s kinda scary.” Zoro says.

“Oh, would you guys stop? Is it impossible for me to be happy?” (Y/N) laughs.

They chuckle with her. Robin and Nami walk out onto the deck, their smiles turning into confused ones as they look at their crew mate.

“(Y/N)? Did something happen?” Robin asks, gently patting her shoulder.

Nami looks worried. “Yeah. Did the boys do something to you?”

“Not you guys, too!” (Y/N) groans.

“Uh oh, is someone sick?” Luffy’s voice echoes through the wind. The crew looks up at the head of the ship. Their Captain sitting at his usual spot. “Do we need to get Chopper?”

“No! I’m fine!” (Y/N) calls over to her captain. The crew laughs together.

————

The day went smoothly. Everyone was enjoying themselves, floating along the ocean like no care in the world. At the moment, they didn’t have a set place to go.

But soon the sky turned dark as gray clouds set above, covering the sun. The crew looked around, expecting a storm to come through. But nothing was coming. It was a calm, dark day.

While trying to figure it out, (Y/N) sees something from afar. Something way too familiar.

A dark ship was heading straight for them. She could see the familiar Captain standing at the tip of his ship.

(Y/N) froze. She knew exactly who that was, and never would she see them again.

She joined the Strawhats just after Zoro did. But a while before that, she was in another pirate crew. She thought it was a kind, gently crew. A crew that took her in, and were even friendly with her. But as time passed, she didn’t realize the lies they’ve been telling her. All they wanted was her trust for their advantage. So she ran away, and never looked back.

Then Luffy found her, distressed and alone. She couldn’t trust him at first, but she noticed his kindness. Is this what true kindness is? Was her first thought of seeing her Captain.

But as she stood there, frozen to the ground, Luffy and Zoro knew exactly what was going on. They quickly stood in front of their friend, protecting her from anything to come their way.

“You’re alright, (Y/N).” Zoro says to comfort her.

“Remember, we are your friends!” Luffy announces with a smile.

The other hop up with the two. “We don’t know what’s going on, but we’re right with yah!” Nami claims.

“Yeah! We’ll protect you!” Usopp says.

“I may be small, but I can still protect you!” Chopper stands in front of (Y/N)’s feet.

The others then agreed, saying their own words as well. (Y/N) had tears rolling down her cheeks.

So this is what real friends are like.

She steps forward, between Luffy and Zoro, a confident look in her eyes.

Zoro and Luffy look at her in shock, questioning her actions.

“We’re friends, aren’t we? Friends never leave each other behind.”

Their confidence grew even more.

[softrozene]

Reacting to Reader’s Braces Headcanons

I took a break from my event to create this extremely self-indulgent and rushed headcanons since I finally got my braces off! I have a very strong dislike for my retainer now but it will grow on me :’) Anyway this is comfort for me since my mouth is in pain lol.

One Piece Characters Reacting to Reader getting braces vs. getting them off!

One Piece Characters x Reader (Gender-Neutral/Nonbinary)

*I just did the Straw Hats, Law, Marco, Ace, and Thatch for this! (I did not add Jinbei as a straw hat since I am still not all the way caught up)

Warnings: This is long, Fluff- The characters reacting can be considered platonic/romantic- I will have any romantic (kissing) headcanons in bold. Except Chopper. He is strictly platonic because he is baby.

This is their normal One Piece world since I was a bit curious how they would react since I imagine that if there are dentists/orthodontists in their world it would be rare or only in like huge cities like Water 7.

FLAKSDSA Honestly just imagine Reader leaves the crew once in a while to go get their adjustments done or something lmfao. We ignore logic for this one. Only care about the reactions XD

Words: 2,343

Monkey D. Luffy:

When he firsts sees the metal in your mouth he is curious!

He will be in utter awe or laugh if he thinks they look funny (which of course makes Reader’s confidence plummet lol unless you laugh with him)

May call you a robot

He wants to know why they are shaped around your teeth- It is not like the gold or silver teeth that other pirates have that accompany missing teeth

This is weird for him since your teeth seem to be trying to look straight?

When you explain the reasoning of braces to him he is even more puzzled but excited for you!

He is not sure you really need them since he likes your smile regardless but he is happy if you are happy!

As for when you get them off- He is in awe that the braces did their job! And now you get to wear this weird plastic thing in your mouth

How the heck did you even get it in there?

He has no clue what a dentist/orthodontist is so he will just call them mouth doctor and think Chopper is the one helping you lol

Kissing with them on is also a weird experience for him! (I really hate to say it but he will love if you do not clean them very well. It makes him surprised but happy if he tastes food on them alfdjaslkf I HATE THIS lol)

He likes the way the metal feels when he explores your mouth but hopefully he is not a harsh kisser- You fear something will break if he really wanted to flakdfa

When you get your braces off he is in even more shock! That is so cool! Your smile is straight now! But now you got this weird plastic thing in your mouth... He does not mind he is just forgets you wear it since it is clear!

Luffy honestly does not care what you look like smile wise from before or after. He has no preference. He only cares that you are happy with your smile!

Roronoa Zoro:

“What the hell is in your mouth?”

THIS MAN BATHES ONCE A WEEK SO I WOULD ASSUME THAT IS THE SAME WITH HIS DENTAL HYGIENE?! I really hope not. I hope he cares for his mouth and will pretend he does now falksdfja

Anyway, he sees the metal and he is confused but once you explain it, he really does not care anymore

“Oh, cool, I guess.”

If you are partners though- He will be intrigued how kissing you would be. He takes the chance and decides it is an experience for sure tasting the metal in your mouth. (May remind of blood so he pretty cool with it alfdjalk)

Speaking of blood- If something ends up poking him or cutting him... He will enjoy it to the max tbh however if it is you that is hurt he will cease all kissing and only go for pecks until later

When you get them off I think he would miss tasting the metal

When you get your braces off he does not notice at first... It takes a few smiles before he goes... “Wait a minute...”

Then it hits him!

He will smile and be happy if he notices that being braceless brings you confidence with your new smile!

Nami:

SHE NOTICES THEM IMMEDIATELY AND SHE LIKES THEM

Nami is huge on hygiene so I think she would love to know more about dental hygiene and the concept of braces

She is understanding with your diet restrictions and will scold anyone who gives you weird looks or tries to get you to eat something you should not

She is your go-to for this since she also wants to see the end result as perfect

She is tad worried in the kissing department- Not wanting to mess your braces up since she knows how much effort goes into them but she also worried about her safety and if a wire or lose bracket will poke her or worse you. So she sticks to gentle kisses until they are off

She actually goes with you to your orthodontist to see how they take them off and to be there for you

She is happy with and for you upon seeing the end result!

and now her kisses can be harder >///<

Usopp:

As a tinkerer he will notice and also be intrigued. He has never seen braces (like Luffy and Zoro) and has never heard of them

He asks so many questions

Luffy, Zoro, and him are the ones who forget your diet restrictions which causes much irritation on your side. You will constantly glare at them for offering foods or drinks you can’t have

Usopp will eventually start remembering and be considerate on your behalf

When he kisses you he is soft and gentle- Not wanting to hurt you or himself. If he tastes blood he will pass out in fear just because he will blame himself and think he hurt you. He is too sweet :’)

As soon as your braces are off he will ask SO MANY QUESTIONS about the retainer like how was it made and such? Does it feel weird?

He is just so intrigued by it and of course- It makes you smile even more.

Sanji:

Tbh I feel like he would have had them as a kid or wanted them if his dad cared enough aldfjakl

Also notices them immediately

He will actually cater to your diet needs/restrictions because he knows how much they mean to you if you are going through such a time consuming thing to get your teeth fixed

Besides that he is just a friend you can go to if you are in mouth pain- He will make something soft for you every time you go for an adjustment or tea to help sooth your mouth

If you are kissing on the other hand- If homeboy does not pass out first he will be so gentle. He is terrified of hurting you or making you uncomfortable with your braces on (and lowkey is the same way even if you get them off- You will have to be the one to make the first move)

When you get them off- It is a food celebration! Whatever you missed eating or that you could not eat he will make it all for you!

He does notice if you are smile more and if you are more confident with your new smile! : )

Tony Tony Chopper:

HE IS YOUR BEST FRIEND DURING YOUR BRACES TIME.

He will constantly worry about any mouth pains and since he is a doctor is intrigued how someone labeled as a doctor for teeth does their jobs

He will asks questions constantly and write about your journey with this

10/10 cutie and best buddy for this

Make sure he is stocked on simple pain meds for you

Nico Robin:

She notices them but does not say anything or ask questions unless you want to talk about

She is sweet and looks out for you

Makes sure Sanji helps with your diet restrictions

Besides that she does not notice much or ask much

She is just happy that you are doing this for yourself

Her kisses concerning this are always gentle. She refuses to risk anything with you until after your braces are gone. Only then will she let herself become more heated with kisses.

After your braces she will always compliment your smile (and tell you it was beautiful before too but notes how confident you are)

Cyborg Franky:

“WHOA THAT IS SUPPPPPERRRR!”

He likes them.

That is all.

Okay but seriously. As a man who completely turned himself into a machine in the front he has mad respect for you for putting metal in your mouth. Like that concept is wild to him since the mouth is so sensitive (yet he also can blow flames out his mouth due to working on it aldfjal)

He will refuse to kiss you since he knows how is strength and hard kisses can damage your brackets/wires so he refuses anything until after they are safely off.

Besides that after your braces are off and you have your retainer on (He honestly didn’t notice the retainer lol) He will go “You have a SUPERRRR smile!”

Brook:

Brook honestly does notice them at first but he does not say anything until you do

Cue his jokes: “I NOTICE THE METAL IN YOUR TEETH WITH MY EYES BUT WAIT I DO NOT HAVE ANY EYES YOHOHOHO”

Besides that he is not that interested in them

For kissing though he also refuses to do so since he is straight up a skeleton. He does not want to risk his bone breaking ANYTHING. Though he will peck your cheek. Even after you get them off he is hesitant since he is a skeleton- That does not mean he will not try. If you ask he will get flustered and be gentle for you

When you get your braces off- Brook may tease you and say your teeth are almost as straight as his! And remind you constantly that he is a skeleton adlfjakl

Trafalgar Law:

Is just a king- I should stop all headcanons here alfdkaldks

He knows what braces are and is not that interested in the work only because he prefers his medicinal studies that are more morbid than the mouth

However, he is very observational still and notes how you care for them and what your diet is

For kissing- He acts like he does not care but he is gentle and careful when things gets heated. He is actually a big softie so he will do everything to avoid ruining your braces that would involve a setback.

After you get your braces off he also notices how much more confident you are. How much brighter your smile is because of that

Besides that- He does not make a big deal out of it

Marco the Phoenix:

He and the Whitebeard pirates have been nearly everywhere and met all kinds of people so he is not that surprised when he notices that you have braces

He has seen them before so not a big deal

Much like Law, Marco will not make a big deal out of it

However, if you both are close to each other he may tease you whenever you develop a lisp or when are embarrassed after an adjustment.

Either way he means it with a good heart

God- Kisses with Marco when you have braces are so, so, so, gentle. He is the king of kisses no matter what. He is careful but he sure as hell will not let the metal win when you both get heated. So he knows how to maneuver around your mouth with his tongue >///<

When you get your braces off- It is a celebration with the whole crew. Marco helps plan it and of course takes photos of your smile afterwards since you have every right to be proud of your smile

He will always comment on how your smile is brighter

Portgas D. Ace:

Also with Marco (and Thatch) he is rather used to seeing different kinds of people with different situations so he is not surprised to see metal in your mouth

However when you get close to him he does ask questions and get intrigued

He only teases you when you have some trouble speaking a few words but besides that- He is also respectful and does not think much of the braces

Though since he is one that eats all the time he tries to be considerate for you since he knows that it can be frustrating with your diet restrictions

If you are in a relationship with him he actually is not confident in kissing you with your braces. It is because he cares so much about you and because of his self-loathing- He would HATE if he messed up your braces so he is cautious and tries not to push anything until after you get your braces off

When your braces comes off homeboy is going to dine-and-dash with you EVERYWHERE

Thatch-

Like the other two- Thatch is used to this kind of thing so he is not surprised

Since he is the culinary chef for the Whitebeard Pirates you bet your butt he will have better foods for you to suit your needs

He is also teasing like the others and may take it a far sometimes but he will remind you that you are good with or without braces!

He constantly makes sure you are doing fine though since he is aware of how the other whitebeard pirates may not be as considerate as he is

Kisses with Thatch are gentle but I think if it gets too heated he may forget that he is supposed to be gentle. He definitely ends up tearing up his tongue on the metal if this is the case and he feels bad if you feel bad- If not he will laugh it off and continue if you want

After you get your braces off- He will check with what you want to celebrate! What kind foods you have to eat first and you get the honor of taking the first bite!

OKAY LAST BUT NOT LEAST HERE IS A LIST ON WHO WOULD MAKE SURE YOU ACTUALLY WEAR YOUR RETAINER :’):

Would forget you you wear a retainer so they would not be helpful as a reminder: Luffy, Zoro, Franky, Brook, Ace

Remembers then forgets after a while: Usopp and Thatch

Makes you wear your retainer as instructed and will give you a death glare (out of love of course) if you are not doing so: Nami, Robin, Sanji, Chopper, and Marco

Will make sure you wear your retainer even though he says he does not care, and will murder your soul if you do not do so (out of love but he will lie about it): Law
