law and luffy are just like. what if I saw you at the peak of your miracle working competence, and then the literal next time I saw you it was at your most isolated and broken. and what if that moment of seeing you alone and grieving and terrified was the moment where I decided you were someone worth keeping, someone who I personally cared about and wanted around. how does that not make you wanna lose your fucking mind.

and then the other thing on top of that which always gets me is the way that you can just so clearly see that neither of them has any idea how to fit this relationship into any preexisting context - Luffy calls him part of his crew, but law is the captain of his own crew and would clearly die before giving that up; law calls them allies but it is glaringly obvious that they care about each other in a way that goes beyond that. of course Luffy is generally a lot less bothered about this than law, who routinely wants to put his own head through a wall about it, but it’s just such a fun layer to their dynamic I think.

#law is sitting there like NO NEED TO DTR. WE KNOW WHERE WE STAND AND ITS FINE. and Luffy’s like yeah exactly we’re besties for life :D #law head in his hands like oh god we DO need to dtr… but luffy has fully moved on that train has left the station and there’s no going back.#sorry bby you missed your chance (debatable if he ever had one LMAO)#anyways back to my first point. like it’s endlessly fascinating to me that they’re initially drawn to each other at their best and brightest #but the moments in which their relationship+devotion to each other are actually cemented are when they’re at their lowest #it’s luffy with his guts on laws operating table. it’s law under doffy w/6 bullets in his chest and still only focused on his revenge #fuck it it’s law alone and at his creepiest on child experimentation island! like that’s the law that luffy looks at and goes YOU <3 #this isn’t necessarily lawlu I just think they’re eternally important to each other in a very uncategorizable way.#one piece #op meta #trafalgar law #monkey d. luffy #god I talked a lot down here…. sorry guys……#lawlu
