jealous monster trio + law and ace x reader

a/n. not proofread!! i wrote this on my phone in the middle of watching a movie ong. idk why there aren't many dialogues in ace and law's part, but im lowkey pleased with how everything turned out

tags. fluffy fluff fluff, established relationship

crack tags. sanji gets a nosebleed (again), sanji tries to steal you away, sanji (that's it, that's the warning), marco bepo and robin are the best matchmakers, nami robs someone 😴

luffy wasn't the type to be overly possessive about the things he liked. growing up with two brothers, he had learned to share all mundane things in his life; his clothes, his blanket, even his toothbrush.

but not you.

luffy didn't understand the feeling that was developing in the pit of his stomach at the sight of you working out with zoro in the crow's nest. it was nice to stay healthy, right? that was what he had thought when he saw you reject his offer to play board games with him. he watched you walk away and up to the crow's nest where the swordsman practically lived, and sulkily climbed his special seat on the head of the sunny.

"oi, luffy! come down," usopp called out from the deck, and he glanced at the latter. "robin's telling us another story of the ancient civilizations of the west blue!"

"i'm not in the mood," luffy shouted back, still gazing wistfully at you.

he watched your face contort into one of pain when you moved to do the crunches, and zoro laughed at you before showing you how to breathe in the position as you lifted yourself back up.

"are you sure? i think you're just hungry!" usopp called again. "robin said we can have some of the special pancakes sanji made for her."

luffy stared back at his friend, his eyebrows furrowing as he thought hard. soon after, he yelled back, "i'll come down, give me one second!"

as you got back up from the crunch you were performing, you saw a long arm on the glass wall of the room and nearly screamed. luffy accidentally slammed his face into the wall, his cheeks comically enlarged as he spoke something incoherent to you. zoro rolled his eyes from beside you.

"i think he's saying break time is over. you've gotta go deal with him now."

.

zoro was rather secure in your relationship. he didn't mind it when other people commented about how nice you are, or about how pretty you look. he let it all slide, seeing as he knew all of the comments were true, and you deserved to know that. so he wasn't one to get mad when such things happened.

except when it came to the idiot cook.

it had been almost fifteen minutes past your usual time and you still hadn't shown up. zoro had gritted his teeth in the middle of a set and set out to find you. it didn't take him long, however, to figure out what was keeping you.

"my dear y/n, you must listened to this acoustic poem i have written in your name," the cook had one of your hands in his, blocking your way up to the crow's nest.

"i'm sure it's lovely, sanji, but i'm in a hurry right now--"

"ah, where, i wonder, must i look to find another beauty such as yourself--?"

"oi, cook! buzz off, will ya? no one wants you around," zoro's voice came from upstairs, and you turned to look at him.

the cook glared at him from behind you, but immediately pouted wistfully when you turned back at him. "don't say that, 'ro," you scolded, and the cook's face lit up at your words, eyes gleaming at the sight of zoro's annoyed look.

"i said what i said," zoro walked downstairs, twirling a strand of your hair around his fingers when he reached you. "buzz off, prince of the perverts."

.

sanji is a little bit of an idiot. insecurity runs in his veins, and thus so does jealousy. you would have felt bad for him too, had he not been making you feel the same way since day one.

his face streamed with tears as he followed you around the marketplace. a few minutes earlier, you had caught him shooting to the sky with a nosebleed because of some poor woman's smile. he had landed right at your feet, the sight momentarily disarming you before you kicked his frame out of the way to walk.

it had been about half a minute of you ignoring him and he was on his hands and knees, begging for you to spare a glance at him. you would have felt bad, had this not been the fiftieth time in a week. you instead chose to turn to usopp, who had grown to learn to ignore sanji and his antics around women ever since they first met at the baratie. sanji's ears turned a bright red at your movement, and he clinged even harder at you

the two of you silently agreed to not wait for nami while she was busy robbing civilized people in a restaurant, and sped up at the looks the passersby were giving sanji, who was practically hanging onto your waist right now.

"i'm sorry, i'm sorry, angel, i know that's not gonna cut it but i beg for your humble forgiveness, i will not ever-"

"how do you deal with this moron?" usopp whispered to you, and you whispered back an "i don't know".

sanji kept mumbling things into your hips and pressing soft kisses into your waist, until you gave in when chopper hurried up to where you were, polaroids of your smile hanging around his neck; your boyfriend was just in rehab!

.

ace didn't think you looked half as good with anyone else but him. that is another way to say, he couldn't stand anyone who was within a certain radius from you. he wouldn't talk about it at all, and whenever you would bring it up he would play dumb.

but he hated it; not in a you're-mine-and-belong-to-me way but more in a im-just-a-boy-who-needs-external-validation-to-exist kinda way.

so he didn't like the way you were the only 'daughter' in whitebeard's crew among all the 'sons' who spoke about you like you were a trophy. he didn't like how you were placed under marco's division and not his. he didn't like how both whitebeard and marco laughed at him whenever they caught him looking at you.

after a particularly rough mission, the first division was having a blast with all the treasure they had managed to get back. ace looked at you with a longing pout on his face, about ten feet away from you. you were laughing with thatch at the moment, and he was busy fantasizing about how you would react if he carried you into your shared room on his shoulder, kissed the back of your nape and sucked hickeys to spell his name on your neck--

marco slapped the back of his head and his face fell into his plate with a loud crash.

"thank me later," marco said, eyes unwavering as the man in front of him fell asleep face-first into a plate full of food.

he went away as ace woke up shortly after, his face covered in curry, with men laughing at and mimicking him, but among all of them, his ears only heard the sound of your laughter before you quickly got up to hand him tissues.

.

law did not care. or at least, he pretended not to. after all, it had taken multiple tantrums from bepo to get him to confess to you, and even then he had made it clear he was not a fan of whatever you might have thought to be an 'ideal, loving relationship'.

that was, until today, when you had learned just how far you had to push his buttons to transform him into a romantic man. you could feel law's gaze on you as you laughed at whatever dumb thing luffy had just said, but when you turned around, he was busy conversing with robin about who knows what. once again, you turned to luffy, felt weird, turned back and saw nothing. for every minute you talked to the straw hat about something, you could feel law breathing down your neck, albeit in a subtle manner that no one but you seemed to catch.

"law," you finally came up to him, and he looked up at you as if he hadn't for ages. "is something wrong?"

"what makes you think so?" he challenged, and you could feel robin chuckle next to him. after shooting her a perplexed look, you shrugged and walked back to where the group was having fun, staying a bit closer to chopper this time, for luffy's safety.

it wasn't until the two of you had retreated back to your shared room for the night that you had realised what you felt had not been a hoax. law was on you the moment you lay next to him on the bed, nuzzling up to you and pressing gentle kisses to your forehead and cheeks.

you were confused, to say the least, but you had a faint suspicion that this strange side of law was the idea of a certain archaeologist.

[asliceofzosan]

in which Zoro takes the blame for not paying for the food at the Baratie (sequel to Sanji witnessing the riceball incident in Shells Town)

Ribeye steaks piled one on top of the other, a massive helping of mashed potatoes with boatloads of gravy, salads, soups, and fancy dishes with names Zoro can't pronounce — all made up the massively long order list that he knows Luffy has not a single Berry to his name to pay with.

Zoro looks around the place, tuning out the story of the giant goldfish that Usopp has told them before, his eyes resting on the blonde waiter flitting about and flirting with every woman at every table.

Sanji was his name. Zoro didn't recognize it. But when he arrived to their table and saw Zoro, it looked like their resident waiter recognized him. Zoro's reputation in the East Blue is not a laughing matter, so it didn't bother him at first. But the way Sanji stared at him, wide blue eyes and with a touch of a smile on his lips, told Zoro that there's something a lot more than recognition swimming in that man's head.

He can't put a finger on what it is exactly though. It's driving him crazy.

"Waiter, can I get a beer and something for my friends?"

Sanji turns to him and nearly steps back in shock. Zoro quirks an eyebrow, confused and a little annoyed. He wore his best clothes today (Captain's orders). And he's pretty sure he even took his mandatory once-a-week bath before they went inside (Nami's orders). Still the waiter looked at him like Zoro had grown a second head. Like he couldn't quite believe his eyes.

"Maybe there really is something wrong with your eye," Zoro muses, crossing his arms as Sanji quickly straightens his posture and shoves his hands into his pockets. "Got a problem with me, waiter?"

Sanji coughs out a laugh. Zoro notes with narrowed eyes that there is the slightest tint of pink coloring his cheeks. Is he blushing? The fuck?

"None at all, sir. I think I was just seeing things." The look in the waiter's eyes betrays his statement but Zoro chooses to say nothing. With a practiced smile, he turns back to Nami and asks her how she'd like her water that makes Zoro stare at him this time like he's grown a second head.

"And um..." Zoro is surprised Sanji hasn't left yet and is once again directly addressing him. "We have a few specialty riceballs not on the menu today. I'll bring them out... on the house."

Without even explaining what the fuck that meant, Sanji turns on his heels and beelines straight for the kitchen.

"I think Nami's boyfriend might be yours too, Zoro." Usopp teases him with a snicker and the glare he gives him is sharper than the blades of his swords.

Now, here Zoro is, letting Ussop's words affect him more than they have any right to as he downs his third bottle of beer.

The specialty rice balls haven't come out yet. Zoro's starting to think it's just a sick joke. But he doesn't let it get to him. Or tries to. Why offer free food when you can't deliver on it? Fucking ridiculous. And no, it's not like he suddenly craved rice balls when the blasted waiter mentioned them. That's not it at all. Bullshit.

"Didn't the waiter said he's coming by with rice balls?" Zoro finally snaps and the conversation his crew was having died down immediately at his statement. Ah fuck. He probably should have just kept his mouth shut because Nami was now looking at him with a shit-eating grin not entirely unlike the one he gave her when he teased her before the meal.

"How would you like them, oh great swordsman?" She teases with a glint in her eye. She cups her cheeks with her hands in delight at the irritated snarl Zoro gives her.

"With or without seaweed?" Ussop chimes in.

"Cubed or crushed?"

"Fuck off," Zoro hisses between his teeth. Nami and Ussop share a look before bursting into laughter. Zoro looks over at Luffy who was swinging his feet and obliviously sipping his milk. When Luffy makes eye contact with him, he just tilts his head with wide blank eyes and it makes Zoro question all his life choices.

"You wanna ask him?" Luffy says, already clamoring over the booth and waving at the object of Zoro's unexplained irritation. Zoro sinks into the seat as Sanji approaches with the bill for their meal.

"Your bill, sir."

"Zoro's asking if you're gonna bring the rice balls you promised." Zoro just stared up at the ceiling and thought of a million different ways to cut a hole into the floor so that the ocean could take him.

There is a headache inducing silence that follows Luffy's question. Zoro can't help but finally look at the waiter and he doesn't know how to explain the feeling that bubbles up when they make direct eye contact. Maybe it's indigestion. It's probably indigestion.

Instead of bringing up the damn rice balls, Zoro just grabs the tray with the bill from Luffy's hand. Just as expected, his annoyingly endearing captain put down an I.O.U for the ridiculously long list of food they ordered. Several possible scenarios could happen from this. And Zoro doesn't want to think about Luffy wreaking havoc in someone else's kitchen.

With a deep sigh through his nose and a knowing look at Nami, Zoro wrote down his own name in place of Luffy's.

"Zoro, what—" Luffy almost took the bill back when Zoro stood up and handed it directly to the waiter, who looked just as dumbfounded as the rest of them.

"If your head chef's got a problem with that, he can talk to me directly. Tell him that for me, won't you?" Sanji takes the bill, reads what's written, and there's a phantom lurch in his chest that happens when Sanji looks up at him and smiles. Zoro doesn't want to describe it. He'll allow himself to firmly believe that it's a side effect of eating too much food. It's indigestion. You're just constipated. Never mind that the feeling is most prominent in his chest and not his stomach.

"Of course, sir." Sanji purrs and the sound runs like a cold river down Zoro's spine. There's a hint of mischief in the gleam of his visible eye. Every instinct in Zoro tells him it's dangerous. He should take his crew out of here, onto the Merry, and run.

But he stays rooted to the spot, wrist limp on the hilt of his sword, as he watches that damn waiter walk away from him.

"WHO THE HELL IS RORONOA ZORO?!"

The steady routine of washing the dishes helps quiet Zoro's racing mind.

It's a very welcome distraction. The clinking of the ceramic against metal utensils provides a cacophonous symphony that helps drown out all of Zoro's waking thoughts. The sooner he starts to think, the sooner he starts to notice how that stupid fucking waiter has just been sitting at the table behind him, cursing Zoro with his mere presence.

Scrub scrub scrub...

"You sure you don't want any help?"

Scrub scrub rinse...

"No."

Scrub rinse dry...

"I really have nothing better to do."

Zoro's eye twitches.

"Good for you."

A long silence follows this and Zoro thinks the waiter finally gave up. That was until...

"Are you still mad about the rice balls?"

"Oh my god!" Zoro nearly slams a pile of dishes onto the floor. He turns to Sanji, who is just casually smoking at the table, and stomps over to him. Once he was right in front of him, Zoro snarls at him, one hand on the hilt of his sword.

"Talk about those damn rice balls one more time, I'm gonna chop your head clean off for them to use in tomorrow's ramen stock."

Sanji blinks, then turns his head to the side to blow smoke away from Zoro. Zoro tries to convince himself that he isn't staring at the way Sanji's lips purse around the cigarette in the process.

"I can still make you the rice balls," Sanji says without a single ounce of fear in his body. "I just couldn't do it while the old man was around." He then stands up and steps around Zoro with a practiced grace. "Are you willing to wait ten minutes?"

"I'm not hungry," Zoro hisses but his stomach betrays him with a loud grumble. He's been washing dishes for so many hours. He probably missed dinner.

Then, as Zoro straightens his posture, Sanji does it again — he smiles and Zoro doesn't know what to do.

"Sit." Sanji gently nudges a chair out with his foot. It lands perfectly in front of Zoro at a perpendicular angle. "I'll have them out in five."

"You said ten minutes." Zoro found himself saying, only to be contradictory. Sanji laughs this time and the resulting smile pierces Zoro's heart with a million cursed swords.

"When someone's hungry, I feed them." Sanji says simply and that's the statement that ends their conversation. Zoro still refuses to sit on the chair, instead finding himself gravitating towards the counter that Sanji was preparing his ingredients at and leaning against the marble.

Before Sanji found them at their table, he brought down a marine and a fearsome pirate with just his feet. Zoro was fascinated by his fighting style even if he didn't want to admit it out loud. But he's always been curious. Especially now, with Sanji whipping out the sharpest knives and using them effortlessly as Zoro would wield the Wado Ichimonji.

"You're good with knives," Zoro says before he could stop himself. Sanji chuckles.

"Of course, I am. I'm a chef. Best one in the East Blue."

"What's a chef doing waiting tables, then?"

"Cause I was kicked off the line this morning. It's a weekly occurrence, nothing special." The way Sanji scrapes his ingredients into a bowl betrayed how he felt about it despite his nonchalance. "I can cook better dishes than everyone in this damn kitchen but Zeff refuses to acknowledge that. It's always 'your food is crap', 'slice those carrots thinner', or 'needs more fucking oregano—"

Sanji throws the knife onto the cutting board, its tip now embedded neatly straight down the middle. It stood perfectly still, like it was afraid of what Sanji could do if he added more pressure. Zoro raised an eyebrow, looking up at the now irritated cook with a smirk.

"Sorry," Sanji mumbles, taking the knife and cleaning it carefully with a cloth. Zoro says nothing. He just props his elbow on the counter and places his chin into his hand as he watches Sanji in his element. Eventually, it's down to just shaping the rice balls with his hands and Zoro asks the question that poked at his mind during Sanji's mini outburst.

"If you're so dissatisfied cooking here why don't you just leave?"

Sanji pauses. His head is down, his blonde fringe obscuring one eye as his fingers twitch against the rice ball.

"It's not about that."

"Yeah?" Zoro leans as close as he could get with the counter between them. Sanji still refuses to look up. "A hot-headed cook who claims to be the best in the East Blue settling down here — where he is not head chef — is as contradictory as it gets."

"You don't know–" Sanji snaps but stops himself immediately. He looks up to glare at Zoro through narrowed eyes. "You don't know why I still stay."

"Enlighten me then, cook." Zoro leans his hip against the counter. "Because really, someone as good as you claim to be has got to have some ambitions. Dreams." Zoro holds the man's gaze. "Do you hate the old man?"

"No!" Sanji counters immediately. "The man fucking raised me. I owe him my goddamn life!"

"Owing him your life isn't the same as giving up your life to work at a restaurant that barely lets you cook."

"You don't know shit!" Sanji nearly slams his fist down on the counter, pointing a finger at Zoro with his face beet red. "This restaurant was his dream—"

"But is it your dream?"

Silence. Total utter silence.

Where color is nothing but a dark void of black and grey, a sea of blue greets him from the pages. Vivid pink skies and tangerine mangroves burst to life. All types of fish swim in his mind's eye but if he reaches out to touch them, it certainly should be real. A phantom breeze kisses his cheeks and water laps at his feet. He's drowning but he swims in delight. He's falling but he feels the clouds cushion him with warmth.

There is a vast ocean out there, one that contains delicacies and species from all four seas. Creatures of every kind, spices that have never been tasted.

The All Blue.

In Sanji's world of black and white — he strives to find the one place that's in screaming color.

There are tears in Sanji's eyes before Zoro could comprehend what was going on. But he wipes them away before he can get a good look at him. The kitchen was quiet around them. The only sound peeking through was the faint music from the bar outside. Though Zoro's heartbeat was louder in his ears than his own breathing.

But he could hear each footstep Sanji takes, the scrape of the plate as it's pushed in Zoro's direction, and the click click of Sanji's lighter as he helps himself to another cigarette. Zoro looks down and sees the rice balls presented in front of him — three heaping helpings, all coated in a different topping, all different flavors.

Zoro takes one.

And it's the best rice ball he's ever had in his life.

"I have a dream," Sanji murmurs, cigarette hanging loosely from his lips. One glance and Zoro could see that whatever his dream is... it still burns like molten lava in the heart of this chef. "I'd just rather give up on it than die searching for mine."

Zoro swallows, turns around, and takes the cigarette from Sanji. The ashes fall into his palm, its embers dimming as he squishes it between his fingers.

"I wouldn't be so sure about that," Zoro says, looking up to make eye contact with Sanji. He can see it almost immediately — the longing for something that seems near impossible to achieve, the acceptance that it's hopeless — but Zoro sees it, clear as day, that the flickering flame of hope still shines in Sanji's eyes. That he's just waiting for his sign to let it once again consume his soul in a roaring fire, brighter than even the sun could be.

Zoro wants to see him shine.

"Come meet my captain," Zoro instinctively wraps his hand around Sanji's wrist. Surprisingly, Sanji doesn't pull back. "I think he'd really like to get to know you."

Sanji doesn't protest.

Zoro takes the rice balls to go.

Never waste food.

Luffy x male reader hcs ☆

Cuz yeaaaaa I never see this?? I’m sure there’s some male luffy simps out there somewhere !!

come get your food I know you exist!! <3

Now luffy’s not gentle with anyone

but if your a guy he assumes you can handle yourself, weak or not

Why? Because your a man! And men have to do what a man has to do

Luffy has mentioned multiple times to protect nami

because she’s a young girl! (Not a grown woman—she’s eight-TEEN)

robin is strong and has a devil fruit so she’s different!

nami has average feats besides some decent durability

but yeah so he’s not gentle at all

you may get treated like zoro and usopp

you two probably seem more like best friends than a couple

luffy drags you EVERYWHERE on your adventures!

like literally you don’t remember a time where you two are separated

which leads me to believe one of his love languages are quality time

playing together, fishing together, fighting side by side, exploring together

did you notice how many times I said together??

yes!! Because your never apart!!!

so, what’s the other love language??

why physical touch of course!

luffy has no concept of personal space

as we know

so he’s always slingshotting onto you, hopping on you back (even if your smaller), dragging you around, whatever!

he does this subconsciously of course

The crew gets this as well but with as touchy as he is with you, you can tell you two are the couple of the group

don’t bother with dates unless you want to have a eating competition

that’s a date he’ll gladly take on without RUINING

In fact he wins!

every time-

no matter what type of competition it is luffy will never hold back

not even to make you feel better 🤷‍♀️

if you’re just as hyper as him you two are the chaotic duo

nami is always scolding and punching you both

not that you learn your lesson or anything

you guys are always doing stupid stuff like challenges and pranks

and bothering your fellow straw hats when you get bored

🤪

With a more rational boyfriend

luffy doesn’t calm down at all

nor does he listen to you any better than nami

he drags you around on his silly adventures whether you want to or not

in fact that may be how you joined in the first place!

(you remind me of law—platonically)

Luffy always laughs and says “come on m/n it’ll be fun!” Whenever you express you don’t wanna do something

yeah he’s not a great listener

but he is good at picking up on feelings!

so if your genuinely sad he can tell straight away you aren’t your normal self, even if your the world’s best actor

m/n being more sentimental/emotional actually kinda goes hand in hand with luffy since he can pick up on those if nothing else

although you’ll be going through a roller coaster of said emotions-

at least he listens to your demands a little more

Unlike zoro for example as to where he doesn’t get to finish his sentences 🤦‍♀️😬

if luffy ever gifts you something it’ll either be so perfectly accurate (you probably think someone helped him but he did it by himself and didn’t think much of it)

or 😬😬😟

“gee..thanks luffy..”

”no problem m/n!” 😊👍

LOL

if your weak luffy won’t train with you-

you either train with zoro or get stronger with time

it’s not that he doesn’t want to

it just doesn’t cross his mind

he spent 10 years training, he thinks he’s pretty good

All he needs now is experience and adventure!

but if you ask him? Sure!

(im warning you this is training and he doesn’t hold back, especially since your a guy)

idk why luffy thinks guys can handle everything??

like dang you could be a lil gentle..?

anyway yeah

if your strong? Great!

now you can fight along side him :)

random

luffy tells you about everything and anything

Even stuff you don’t wanna know..

”OIII M/N COME LOOK A FISH POOPED IN THE OCEAN!! USOPP WASN’T LYING!”

what??

YUP I’m ending it there 😜

Hopefully my male readers enjoyed this!~ more op content coming soon💗

Struck Twice By Lightning, Chapter 10

I love Buggy. I think he'd have Nami / Usopp energy with his BFF (me).

18+ MDNI

On Ao3

A day or so later, there was another island at which the crew wanted to dock. You didn’t understand their sailing path - where were they heading? What was the plan? Shanks said that they were “sailing around,” looking for parties, festivals, and booze. 

“That’s it? You’re just… sailing around ?” you were flabbergasted. 

“What else would we do?” Shanks said, already drinking in the early afternoon on a lounge chair.

“I don’t know - whatever Emperors are supposed to do! Collect money or get more subordinate crews?” You had been so into the grind of daily life for the last ten years the thought of doing nothing forever was completely foreign to you. 

Shanks swirled his drink, and replied “I don’t feel like it.” 

“You don’t feel like it ? Then how do you guys get money?” You were guessing he had no idea.

“I have no idea. Benn gives me some when I ask.” There it was. Just the thought of seeing their accounting books sent a shudder down your spine. You’d done your own finances for your business - it was a huge headache but it was important to keep yourself entrenched in the money side of things.

“Why would I improve upon a perfect system?” Shanks asked, reclining back and crossing his legs. You rolled your eyes - you didn’t have it in you to argue with such idiocy.

“You’re right, O wise Emperor. Why can’t we all just drink alcohol at 1 PM on a Tuesday?”

“I’m pretty sure it’s Monday.”

“It’s not. Speaking of alcohol, the sake is done brewing. The koji we got is better suited to a shorter brew. We can open it tonight if I can get it pasteurized in time.” It wasn’t the best you’d ever made, but it was pretty good for sake made on a pirate ship with makeshift tools. 

“Hm. What should we call it?” Shanks tapped his drink in thought.

“What do you mean we ? I brewed it, I get to name it. I have a whole naming convention system I use.”

Shanks pouted. “But you brewed it with ingredients bought by my money on my ship. That means it’s mostly mine. So I get to.”

“You just said you don’t know how the money flows on your ship! Maybe it was money from Beckman’s private fund and he gets to name it!” 

“No, I’m still his captain. Oh wait, that’s right!” Shanks snapped his fingers “Captain’s orders - I’m naming it!”

“You know that’s not how that works.”

“Sure it is, you’re not a captain so you wouldn’t know.”

“Fine, but I get to veto anything especially egregious.” You crossed your arms.

“Nonsense, all my ideas will be great. How about Shanks’s Huge Di-”

“No.” 

Shanks scoffed at you. “You didn’t let me finish! I was going to say Shanks’s Huge Dinner, a sake meant for drinking with a fine meal.”

“No, you weren’t.” You smiled despite yourself. 

“No, I wasn’t. What about Shanks’s Amazing Co-”

“No.”

“Shanks Gave Me A Screaming Or-”

“No.”

“The Red Force?”

“No.”

“Hey, what's wrong with that one?! That’s the name of the ship!”

“Ah, well, I already have one with that name. That’s the kind in the bottle I gave to Benn when I met up with you.” You muttered it reluctantly, knowing how Shanks would take it. And indeed, Shanks looked like the cat who ate the cream.

“Didn’t you say that it was your best sake? That it won awards?” Shanks was turning the screws and he knew it.

“Yeah, yeah.” You waved him off. “It’s not like the name did any of the work. Besides, I named other brews after other famous ships. I also have Queen Mama Chanter, Moby Dick, Big Top, and a few others. Helps sell the alcohol in different areas.” 

“Awww, Buggy. I can’t believe you named one after him. I thought you didn’t like him.”

“What? No, I love Buggy. We’ve been close friends for years now. I should call him, actually. Let him know I’m here. He’d love to hear all the dirty details.” You’d buried the hatchet with Buggy long ago - it turned out you had a lot in common and enjoyed talking to each other. You had each other’s transponder snails and talked pretty frequently even though he was out in the East Blue. He was a great friend - supportive and caring, and always -  always -  ready to talk shit. 

“And what dirty details are you going to share, exactly?” Shanks raised an eyebrow.

“Just confirm a suspicion or two.” 

“Like what? About my huge dinner?” You laughed. 

“No, a much darker and more closely kept secret…” you leaned over him and put your arms over the top of his chair, blocking out his sunlight. Shanks looked up at you with a furtive glance. You brought your face down to his and whispered into his ear.

“You keep the goatee because you still can’t grow a full beard.” Shanks smiled and snarled, reaching up trying to grab you. You laughed and danced away, evading his arm. He got up to chase you, catching you with ease since you weren’t really trying to get away. He pinned you against the railing of the deck with his body, nuzzling your face with his own. 

“You’ve discovered my truth. What can I do to have you keep my secret?” He spoke softly into your ear, causing you to shiver. His hand was playing with the ends of your hair, lightly pulling.

“Hmm. I can think of a few things. Let’s talk more in your cabin.” Without another word, Shanks swept you up and carried you over his shoulder to the cabin, smacking your ass loudly.

“Hey! Just for that I’m naming it Shanks’s Goatee!” He smacked it again playfully. 

If he got to float around the sea having fun and doing nothing, you didn’t see why you couldn’t do the same, at least for a little while. 

~~~

Later that afternoon, you did decide to call Buggy. You hadn’t called him in a few weeks, due to all the Shanks shenanigans, which was a longer stretch than usual. You went to the cabin and pulled out your transponder snail. It was wearing Buggy’s hat with the hair pulled through the corners, which made you smile. You laid on the bed and dialed his line.

Purupuru purupuru purupuru purupuru

“What’s up toots?” Buggy’s familiar and pleasant tone came through. He was probably reading something on the other end, as the snail's eyes were tracking something.

“Don’t be mad,” you stated. That made the snail look at you directly. 

“Don’t be mad about what? If the Big Top Brew was a flop this time, I don’t care, I'll still buy it all at full price.”

“No, no, nothing like that. I…uh…have some news.”

“What kind of news?” The snail’s eyes narrowed. You led a pretty boring life generally, it was usually Buggy telling you his adventures with his traveling circus.

“Well, uh….” In the background there was a commotion and some of the crew started yelling.

“What was that sound? Where are you?” He sounded concerned. Even though you never needed him in that way, you were sure Buggy would come to your rescue if you ever asked.

“Oh, um…I’m on the Red Force?” you ended the statement as a question.

“What.”

“I’m on the Red Force, with Shanks?” You were expecting a huge outburst from Buggy, since he was usually quick to anger. Instead, the snail sighed dejectedly.

“Why? I thought you wanted to divorce him.” 

“I did - I do. But he wouldn’t grant me one unless I came on board with him for a month.”

“And you agreed? Come on, I thought you were smarter than that.”

“I - I guess not.” You didn’t want to upset Buggy and his opinion meant a lot to you. Despite what people thought about him, he was smart and perceptive. You were taking his words to heart. The snail sighed again.

“I’m not mad, just disappointed. You’re going to get hurt, and it will be worse than last time. Did you have sex with him?”

“.…” You didn’t want to lie to Buggy, but you sensed this was a dangerous path. You absently stroked the snail with a finger.

“Is Shanks with you?” 

“No, but I’m guessing he’s listening in.” 

“Hi Buggy!!!” Shanks yelled happily from outside the cabin. You imagined he was waving as well. 

“Doesn’t matter. I’d say this to his face, too. This won’t end well. Shanks is a man who only wants what he can’t have. Call me when he forgets about you again.” Buggy abruptly hung up the snail. He’d never hung up on you before.

You sat there in stunned silence. You knew Buggy had your best interest at heart. His relationship with Shanks was…complicated, to say the least. But there was no doubt that he knew Shanks well, maybe even better than you. You’d cried to Buggy about Shanks so many times over the years. It would be hard to see a friend make the same mistakes over and over, you thought to yourself. You were still thinking about it when Shanks opened the door to the cabin and leaned against the doorframe.

“Can I come in?” 

“Sure.” You gestured to the couch, where Shanks sat down. He looked pensive but cracked a small smile when he saw the snail. 

“Is that his look now?” He asked, pointing at the snail. The Buggy snail in question had already fallen back asleep wearing the hat.

“Yeah, his hair’s really long.” 

“ ‘S cute.” Shanks looked at you from across the room.

“If you asked me ten years ago, I would have agreed with Buggy.” Shanks was looking directly at your surprised face. “It’s a flaw of mine - he’s not wrong. I used to only want what I couldn’t have and once I got it, it lost its shine. Thrill of the hunt, you know. I had you, treated you the same way. So then I didn’t have you any longer.”

You stayed silent - this was similar to things he’s said before. But he’d never acknowledged that he’d lost interest once you were together for a while. It felt…validating. You were worried that this was all rosy retrospection, that Shanks was romanticizing the past and forgetting what it was really like. 

Shanks continued, “I realized - I never had you. You’re not an object I can hold in my hands and claim. You allowed me to experience a slice of time alongside you. And I was ungrateful. Nothing has ever compared to that period in my life - I think about it all the time. I think about you all the time. I’ve never forgotten. That’s why we’re sailing to nowhere. I don’t need to hunt for the next big thing. I don’t need to collect experiences like notches on a bedpost anymore. None of that matters. I want something meaningful. I want you back.”

You swallowed dryly. You got off the bed and walked over to Shanks sitting on the couch. You were shaken by the depth of his words. You faced him and straddled his lap. You took his face in your hands, searching his eyes with your own. You pressed your forehead against his.

“I still love you too,” you said. You twined your arms around his neck and kissed him deeply.

I'm a great fuck but better lover

Nami was sitting outside enjoying the good weather while she read the paper and sipped some iced tea. A new bird landed on the railing next to her. It had a package slid into the carrier on it back. Nami took the package out, and the bird made no motion to leave, most likely waiting for a reply. Nami shoke the box. There was definitely something heavy inside. Nami ripped the box open, her curiosity getting the best her as she ignored what was written atop the box. She recognized the name of where it came from. She didn't know why it was addressed to eggplant instead of Sanji.

Inside the box was a smaller box with the name The All Blue discovery box, a letter, a book, and a stack of food magazines. Nami flipped through the book, unable to recognize a single word. She shouldn't do this, but Sanji would forgive her, so Nami opened the letter.

She didn't want to get her hopes up, but the thought of exchanging letters with her loved ones back home filled her with such joy. She wanted to reconnect with them after distancing herself for so long. Nami had to admit she was amused by her new nickname, Miss Nectarine. She could guess who the rest were pretty easily. Meatball was Luffy, broccoli was Zoro, and parsnip was Usopp.

Nami turned as she herd familiar footsteps, Sanji was apoching, Mr. Noddles hot on his heels, with a pitcher of tea and a treat for her.

“Nami-swan! I have your snack all ready for you!” Sanji called out he loved himself into a bow presenting the sliver platter. “I made bublanina, it's a very airy cake, slightly sweet and filled with fresh fruit toped with iceing sugar and whipped cream. This time, I used blueberries and cherries,”

“Sanji, I opened your mail. Did Zeff mean it? Would he send our loved ones our letters if we mail it to him?” Nami asked as Sanji refilled her glass.

“Well I haven't read the letter yet, but I'm sure he did mean it, we can tell everyone at lunch so they can write their letters,”

“I'd like that, you can sit next to me and read the letter if you want to,” Nami took a bite of the cake while Mr. Noodles began to beg and reach for the cake. He was almost as bad as Luffy. It was airy like Sanji said it was. The cake itself wasn't sweet, but the fruit was sweet, as was the powdered sugar on top. It was as always delicious, Nami was glad they had recruited an actual chef.

“Thank you, Nami!” Sanji took a seat next to her, placing his tray down as he began to read his letter.

“Sanji, what made Luffy pick you over a different chef?” Nami asked.

“Well I'm not completely sure, but do you remember the pirate Patty tossed out for not having any money?” Nami nodded, Sanji had told this part already. “Luffy followed me out when I went to feed him. We argued a bit and got to talking about the all blue, I don't know if it was my dream or feeding someone that did it but one of the two. The reason I joined was Zoro,”

“Wow even then you wanted him,” Nami teased.

“Hmm well I won't deny he was good-looking, but not what I meant. Seeing him willing to die for his dream made me realize how badly I wanted to presuse mine. I still needed that last push from the other chefs. I felt that I owed it to Zeff to stay, since he gave up his leg for me, it didn't matter what I wanted. I owed him everything,”

Nami hadn't heard that detail yet. She had missed a lot since she had left after seeing Arlong's bounty poster. The next thing she knew, her three friends and the blond from the Baratie had shown up. They saved her and her village.

[beanghostprincess]

gonna throw my sanuso idea out here for u cuz i dunno what else to do with it. im no writer but its kinda like a fic idea about sanji subconciously reaching out for/touching usopp, using the excuse that hes just so enchanted by beautiful women he cant contain himself.

it kinda begins early on, shortly after they enter the grand line. whenever sanji is swooning over nami or whatever lady, he kinda flails and bumps shoulders with usopp, sorta leans into him while hes overwhelmed with his lovesickness. and overtime it evolves into him reaching out and putting his arm around usopp and pulling him in close while he dreamily sighs about how radiant robin and nami look.

eventually down the line, he uses his swooning as an opportunity to grab usopps hand and twirl him around in a little dance. he doesnt even really realize it, but it becomes less and less about the women and more about being able to take hold of usopp and be near him and dance with him.

meanwhile the whole time usopp cant decide if hes more annoyed or flustered or jealous or what to even make of it, but in the end hes glad to be able to be close to sanji too.

AWWW!! This idea is adorable because you can do so many things with it!! Sanji doing this unconsciously at first, always going for Usopp to dance with him or take his hand etc etc when he's daydreaming about one of the girls. And Usopp doesn't mind that much because he knows how Sanji is, so he just rolls his eyes and lets him do whatever. Sometimes he'd make a comment about it or hit him to wake him up, but usually, he just deals with him.

But, of course, we know that even in canon Usopp likes to tease and jokingly flirt with Sanji. So he starts to just... Flirt back and enjoy his shenanigans more and more because Sanji always goes to him when he does these things. And at some point, Sanji just enjoys being next to Usopp so he ends up doing it just because. He says it's for the joke and it's just having a fun time with his best friend, but it's more than that.

The thing is, I think they would end up flirting more and more without girls in the picture. Sanji brings snacks to Nami and Robin and Usopp says something like "Oh, no! What about your dearest sniper?" and Usopp does not expect Sanji to joke back and say "Of course, pretty boy, how could I forget about you? Silly me" and he actually already has a snack prepared for him. They will laugh at Zoro or Law pining over Luffy by holding each other close and imitating their voices dramatically and pretending to almost kiss and they- They genuinely have fun doing it. They're just silly like that. They end up getting closer and closer and Usopp makes jokes about Sanji not paying enough attention to him when everyone can see Sanji has been even ignoring the girls around just to flirt with Usopp.

The sniper doesn't realize, but Sanji is actually down bad and the fact that they're close enough now to even kiss or hold hands jokingly with no strings attached makes him so happy. He wants more, of course, but damn he'll take what he can get, honestly.

Thinking about Sanji actually falling in love with Usopp and being all worried about it in the end, to the point where he has this crisis about confessing. Usopp thinks (because he's oblivious and dumb) that it's because of Nami. So of course, he goes to Sanji and tells him to practice his confession with him. Because Usopp doesn't think he has any chance of being with Sanji. He has already accepted it. And this way at least he can help the one he loves.

Finally, Sanji makes this beautiful confession to Usopp, saying everything he feels out loud for once, and about to kiss him, and Usopp is like "Huh, I- I think you should keep the kiss for Nami, right? You wouldn't want to waste this on someone like me" and Sanji is literally so in love with him it hurts, so he says "It would be a waste to use it on somebody that isn't you" and they kiss. And they're happy. And I love them so much-

Now they become even more annoying because their way of flirting jokingly turns into actually flirting and being clingy and the crew is soooo done with them.

[i-am-minty-fresh]

Hi, So I just saw your post. You know what. What about ussop and jinbei. They barely get screentime together, and I would like what you think of their duo. (Ps keep doing what you are doing)

Alright I love a challenge!

Because these characters don’t have a lot of screen time together we’re gonna have to go off what we already know about the characters personalities and histories to best analyze the minimal interactions we’ve seen between them.

Starting off with Usopp…what’s there to say about the world bestest boy? A lot. Too much, honestly. I’ll try to keep it short.

Usopp is the strawhat’s ‘normal’ guy on the crew. He’s got a reasonable amount of concern, worry, and fear for a 17 year old who has to fight zombies, warlords, and god. He’s a teenage boy with a pretty normal childhood (I mean comparatively to the rest of the traumatized freaks) who likes doing little chemistry and chasing bugs with his best friends! As the story progresses he’s used almost as an anchor for strawhat insanity as the other strawhats just get crazier and crazier. He never stops finding Luffy’s antics buttfuck insane, Sanji’s womanizing annoying, Zoro and Robin’s bloodlust unnerving, and Nami’s greed perverse. While he starts to relent as the show progresses in regards to putting up a direct fight, he never stops being, at the very least, exasperated. He’s tired, but he’s grown a thick skin to the crazy due to his lived experience.

When we talk about lived experience though, he gotta talk about Jimbei. From soldier, to pirate, to warlord, to pirate captain and now back to pirate subordinate…Jimbei by all accounts has lived much more of a life than most, if not all, of the strawhats. He’s used to routine and is bound by loyalty and justice. He’s got a well defined moral compass (shown through his interactions with Koala) and is incredibly honorable (any of impel down or Marineford as an example). He even takes the time to officially retire from the Big Mom pirates even after she directly threatens his life. His life has taught him unwavering faith, and so he joins the crew of those whose faith in Luffy and his dream is similarly unwavering…

Except for Usopp. Not to question the boy’s loyalties after Enies Lobby because he earned back his respect with that tearful apology man but he was the first and only crew mate that went against his captain because of his own volition. He fought Luffy. He tried to actually beat Luffy. He went against a direct order from his captain and fought him. To Jimbei this would be unheard of. Jimbei has disagreed with King Neptune, or Fisher King (he never really took orders from the marines as a warlord so I’m not counting Marineford), but has never gone directly against their actions or direct orders.

This is, I think, due to their age/level of maturity. Jimbei’s experience has led him to accept that the people in charge of him are older, wiser, and therefore better at making decisions….which in his case has been accurate. Usopp on the other hand has only experienced one ‘leader’ in his life and it’s the resident dipshit. He was within his rights to question the judgment of Luffy within the context of who they both are. Luffy’s never had to make a complicated captain decision before and because of that there is no precedent for Usopp to fall back on for how well those turn out. Not to mention Usopp might have subconsciously believed that, to a certain degree, they were playing pirates. Luffy was his best friend before he was ever his captain so who’s he to say what they can and can not do? (Think about when you had to work on a project or something with your friend and you had to ‘get serious’ and it made them defensive…people don’t like being told what to do by their friends and peers).

Jimbei’s subordination is tied to his respect for those he follows (insert quote he said to Ace in Impel down that I’m too tired to go find). Usopp’s seems to be, at the beginning, to be whether or not things were going the way he wanted them to go. After Enies Lobby, Usopp now has some of that lived experience, some precedent for Luffy’s more serious captain choices. He’s even better at rolling off the punches because he’s known forever that his captain is crazy (something a normal pirate would need a very long time to adjust to) but now he knows that he can also rely on Luffy to make the right choices if need be.

Jimbei on the other hand is a fishman outta water. In his experience, good leaders are an entire league of their own. Built from stern expressions and hard decisions and years of discipline….which doesn’t even attempt to describe Luffy. Jimbei is always shocked and in object horror at the mockery of fighting that Luffy does, at the insanity of his crew, and everyone’s seemingly disregard for the way people do things! Jimbei thought his age and experience might put him on the metaphorical council for the Strawhat captain, because there’s no way he just does whatever he wants without confronting his crew to discuss the best course of action, right? RIGHT?!

Usopp’s never going to stop sighing his heavy sigh and vocalizing his general discomfort with the path Luffy has taken (typically the path of most resistance) but he’s gonna just roll with the punches and trust Luffy’s gonna get it all done right because he always does. Jimbei is gonna looked shocked but then he’s gonna laugh. He’s going to laugh at the differences between his other leaders. He’s gonna laugh because what a great leader he’s found to follow. He’s gonna laugh because Ace was right, his little brother really is something!

(Thanks for the ask! Feel free to add any additional thoughts you may have had!)

Rescue Bots x One Piece

Do you think that when the kids are back at home after a lot of adventures, their pirates crews when meeting the kids families, would Sanji do a Sanji thing and start simping for Anna Barabova (Frankie's new mom), Dani (Cody's big sister) or even maybe Quickshadow 😂😅???

For Cody of course would be hard different as even tho the Burns and the Bots are angry Cody would stop them because he knows how strong Kid and his crew are... unless we say that in all this time the crew warm up to Cody and do feel sorry.

Part of this answer depends how long the kids were gone, ether a few months to a year or more maybe.

All the same, it's a heartwarming reunion for a lot of people.

Frankie or Greenie as she's called among the Strawhats has a great time showing her family along with the Rescue Team and the Bots.

Everyone is both impressed and a bit freaked out by Frankys robot body, with Anna Baranova horrified how anyone could put that much robotic prosthetics into there body all on their own😣

But it dies down, and Doc Greene is an instant fan asking so many questions about how Franky's body and the rest of his inventions work. Anna would be a lot more friendlier but would try to ask Franky to put on some pants, especially in front of Cece. Though she's pleasantly surprised at how brilliant Franky is despite his eccentric behaviors.

Chase would comment that Franky was being indecent, possibly criminally so 🤨

But Blades would try to copy his dance 😆

Speaking of the bots, Luffy, Usopp, Chopper, and Franky are instant fans of the bots. Eyes sparkling at their shiny armor and at the way they transformed into different vehicles. Luffy would stretch to jump on Heatwave shoulder and immediately ask him to join his crew or Blades after seeing him fly🤩

Sanji is a gentleman to all women, it dosent matter what age or even species they are. So he be incredibly respectful to Dr. Baranova and Quickshadow, but you better believe that he'll do a noodle dance when he sees Dani or even Madeline Pynch.

"Dani! My darling! My dear rescuing angel! Please save me! My heart is in need of your sweet medical care! One only you can cure"!😍

He's swiftly cut off by ether a hit from Nami or a confrontation from Taylor if he's there.

Kade be pretty mad if he started flirting with Hayley but he get told off too for looking at Nami and Robin a little longer than he should😅

Though the biggest person who may not have made the best impression would be Brook. While being a singing talking skeleton made him extra cool to a lot of the Griffin Rock Team, especially the bots who are interested in learning about human anatomy and think the expossed bone structure is very educational, he looses a lot of respect when he goes around asking his....underwear question...😒

Kade threatened to bury him while Chief Burns was close to socking him😤

Plus Blades thought he was kinda scary.

But after a while, they make up, loving Brooks music and seeing what a kind person he was to her. His jokes are funny too, and the 45-degree angle one has Graham and Boulder laughing!

He even find a connection between himself and Baranova, given that they were left isolated for years. Him at sea and her underwater.

Chopper is an instant favorite with Dani and the other girls, along with the more animal loving bots. But what really makes him a fast friend to Dani and Dr. Baranova is his medical knowledge and they sir and talk about the best care for things like first aid or what kind of rescue needed a special kind if medical care. Chopper thought Dani wad the coolest given that she rescued and treated people as part of her job.

Usopp, being an inventory himself, thinks Geiffin Rock is amazing and would talk to Doc Greene about his inventions. The pair even swapping stories over how some of there inventions went wild.

Robin is another favorite among the scientists, offering insights into their world and its history to anyone intrested. Uncle Woodrow would like her and to hear her stories with the crew and the different islands they went too.

Doc Greene is just fascinated about Devil Fruits and goes around asking each member about theirs. He's stretched Luffys skin, shook hands with an arm Robin sprouted, asked Brook to show him his "soul", and on Chopper and his shape-shifting abilities.

Zoro is really interested in the bots andvwonders how good they could fight😏

The Rescue Team, though, is worried and nervous at the fact he carries swords, with Chase saying he needs to be jailed for bring illegally armed.

Luffy thinks Griffin Rock is cool though a little bit boring till an emergency happens. Hethinks the Burns are cool for being heros but still says he never be one. Kade likes Luffy and finds him funny, also that he like Kade sandwiches.

When its eventually time to leave Frankie cries, as much as she wanted to be with her parents the Strawhats were her family now too. She wanted to see Luffy become King of the Pirates and see the others complete there dreams but she wants to be with her dad and new Mom.

It's a hard goodbye.

Now onto Pricsilla.

Pricsilla tries to introduce her mother to the crew and Law, tell her about her adventures and her Devil Fruit Power. But her mother, Madeline Pynch m, remain polite but cold. Even brushing off the crew members who tried to talk with her and tell her what a wonderful daughter she has, even cute Bepo!

The only ones who were friendly were the Burns, the Greene Family, and the Bots.

Law didn't like her, the cold and calculating eyes of Madeline Pynch reminded him too much of Doflamingo or members of his organization. Measuring people's worth and how the stock of the situation could benefit them.

Also Madeline isn't very welcoming of Priscillas powers asking her not to use them or even show them to anyone. I. Her words there "creepy and unsightly" though Madeline would contemplate on maybe using them for a scheme.

It does break Priscilla heart, but this was her mom and her home, she was back and needed to go back to normal...right?

In a quiet moment Law offers a place on his ship for Priscilla, permanently. He understood this was her home universe but if she could see herself any other place then he be willing to take her on his crew again.

Priscilla almost cries as this was one of the nicest things Law has said to her.

But what should she choose?

Now we get onto the real angsty part of this crossover, Cody.

Again how Cody is depends on the timeline.

If hebwas older he would have learned at this point how to act like a member of Kids Crew. Being kind of haughty and tough. Imagine everyone's surprise seeing an older Cody who comes off as rude, dressed like a punk, and carrying a weapon 😰

But if it was a still a rather young Cody, he may just be really quiet.

Though all the same he does break into tears and the hisvfamily, along with the Greens, and the Bots ate so happy and relieved to see him...with a metal Griffin?

But slowly they start to see something wrong.

Unlike the pirate crew that Frankie and Priscilla had and where eagerly introducing to the others. Cody was quiet about his, only introducing his captain with a nod calling him "Captain Kid".

Chief Burns knows there is something wrong with his son, Cody was a bot full of smiles and warmth. But now it feels like he's just a shadow of his former self. With a scared face and a hard look in his eyes.

The pirates he was with don't seem friendly ether all glaring or looking apathetic at the Griffin Rock residents. But did have interested or wary looks to the bots.

All the same Chief Burns tries to be polite going up to Kid and thanking him for " taking care of my son and bring him back"

(The next scene depends of which kind of Kid this is. Kid from Wano may have been a little humbled but still determined and arrogant. In ether case if Cody was with him in Wano and supported him with the rest of the crew against the Beast Pirate, Kid might have just nodded at that. Cody may have just been a useless little kid but he was loyal and proved himself tough enough to make it on his crew. He knew Cody wanted to be home and for his time in the crew for good and bad he may have been soften enough to just let him just be with his family.

Pre Kaido Caaptain Kid is another story...)

Kid gave Chief Burns a look before laughing cruelly "Back? Who says he's staying"?

The turning around he gestures his crew back to the ship "I don't know how the he'll we got here but as soon as it's figured out we're leaving, I'll be taking my crew on a side of the island" Kidd glares at Law and Luffy "You better keep out of my way Strawhat, Trafalgar"

As he walks off he turns his head to Cody and Airazor and says "All of us"

Chief Butns could see his son stiffen but all the same Cody gestured for Airazor to move and silently he began to walk back with Kid and the Crew.

His family was shocked, there happy reunion ending too soon. There little brother leaving them, being forced to walk away

"Cody"! his dad called trying to catch up with him.

Kade followed yelling "Cody you've been gone for months! And just got back and now your leaving?! Why are you even listening to this guy-"

He didn't get a chance to finish as too fantastic a curved blade was at his neck.

"I watch what you say to Captain Kidd" said a masked man, Killer.

Everyone gasp and Hayley cried out in fear for Kade!

Heatwave moved to help his partner, a giant hand ready to pin or snatch the knife wielding human away from his partner.

But the-

"Repel"

Heatwave was sent falling down on his back. He was shocked, everyone was, that a Autobot could just be sent tobbling over like a block of wood.

A dark laugh from Kid rang out at he turned to the bots "So my power can work on these tin cans...this should be fun" 😈

But before he could move at the panicked bots a voice was heard.

"Weren't you leaving, Eustass"? Said Law

Kidd glared at him only to get an equally strong look back from not only him but Luffy as well.

Kidd scoffed and continued walking. Killer let Kade go who nearly collapsed at how close he was to losing his head.

Cody was watching his family worried, hesitant to try to check on Kade. His family and friends looked at him begging him to stay.

But Cody felt a firm but gentle hand on his shoulder, Cody looked to see Killer who gave him a quiet shake of the head before guiding him back with there group.

The Burns family was a mess, they just got there youngest back but now he was forced to leave.

How could they have let this happen?

(In the end things get worse before they get better)

Iron Buttercups Part 1

A kidsopp story :)))

So I finished the first part of it! Yayyy!! Had to do a lot of revising and shit but I think this is pretty great! Hope you enjoy!

Synopsis: So in this story it's kinda like a meet cute, but the person who's in the meet cute looks like and acts like he hates your guts but he actually wants to be in them if you catch my drift. Anyways no smut, mostly cause I don't know how to write it. And I'm not sure how I'd do at writing it. Also love being mean to Zoro, he's so squinchy!!! The interactions between Sanji and Usopp can be read as whatever, I'm thinking more like they're best friends in this story but also who cares! Feel free to think it's a bit Sanji x Usopp too! Also a bit of Frobin in here, love that shit. Also maybe like a really small hint of Lawlu?

The idea of having four crews of the worst generation on one island was a terrible idea, however it couldn't be avoided. Sanji needed to restock on various foodstuffs, Franky also needed to dock to work on some things and see whether everything was in "tip top shape" as Franky said, and even Usopp had things he needed to do on the island. But the thought of seeing Law's crew sounded like a pain in the butt, while running into Hawkin's or Kid's crews sounded more like a fight waiting to happen.

"Usopp I don't like the sound of this either but the next island is about a week away, and unless you and Luffy can consistently catch a ton of fish. Luffy might start thinking about eating one of us."

"I would not!"

"Yes you would Luffy."

"Hihi! Yeah I would!"

"B-But, Nami... Please!!! I'd be fine if it was just Law's crew but-"

"Torao is here?!"

Nami turns to glare at Usopp. Shit. "That settles it! We're docking at the island then! That's alright, right Nami?"

If looks could kill Usopp would probably be dead. Nami gritted out in a sickly sweet tone " Yeah, sure Luffy! I'd love just love to dock at the same exact island that three other dangerous crews are on!"

Luffy stared at Nami with a blank face, not quite getting that she was being sarcastic.

"..... Great?" Said Luffy with a tone that implied he was not sure whether or not to answer, and if said answer was correct.

She sighs, she's been trying to help Luffy understand more social cues as well as when people are being nice versus when people are being rude. Although from the looks of it, the little lessons Nami’s been giving him hasn’t been working.

Nami turns to Usopp to Usopp and smacks the back of his head, then points at him and says. " This is your fault."

And truth be told, yeah it was his fault that Luffy heard about Law being on the island but it wasn’t his fault that they ran out of food. For the most part. Okay maybe he and Luffy one too many midnight snacks. Fine, more like ten too many but who's counting.

Usopp heard a chuckle coming from Robin lying in the lawn chair and reading.

"Well perhaps we'll run into a bit of fun? I heard that long ago this island used to take young prisoners of war to sacrifice to their god." Franky, who was listening in from earlier said. "Oh yeah, you told me about that! You think there might be a cult still following those old practices? You think they might even take my heart? Although I don’t exactly have a heart but I do have-“

Which leads to Franky to start rambling about the specifics of his heart/processor thing. While Robin looks to him with admiration and love. She interrupts him and counters with "You're not exactly a young prisoner of war, Flam. On top of that I do not like sharing what's mine."

Franky sputters in a way that describes the conflicting feelings that Robin's response evoked in him while Robin chuckles at his confusion.

"God they're so fucking sappy, it’s so cute and gross at the same time."

"You're so right Nams, look at them all happy and shit. Absolutely disgusting."

"Girl, don't agree with me. I hate you right now, now we literally have to dock on this shitty island because you couldn't keep your voice down."

"You KNOW he has selective hearing, he would've heard anyways!"

Zoro interjected with "You know he wouldn't have heard anything if you both had shUT THE FUCK UP! NOW-"

"GO BACK TO SLEEP MOSS HEAD!"

"YOU SHOULD GO WANDERING OFF INTO THE DAMN OCEAN AND DROWN ASSHOLE!"

As Zoro tried to reply he was immediately kicked out of the argument as he got hit by both Nami and Usopp.

"Anyways, both of you are on dish duty for the rest of the week."

"You can't do that!"

"I DIDNT DO SHIT!!" Nami goes to hit Zoro and Usopp on their heads.

"Too bad, now get ready to leave the ship. You're also both on grocery duty."

The two men groaned as Nami walked away in a huff. Zoro looked at Usopp in the eye and sent him a little glare.

"Don't look at me like that. Look I'll buy you some good sake alright?"

"... I want two bottles," Usopp sighs, signalling that the deal has been made. As he walks away Zoro proceeds to shout. "And it better be good or I'm gonna-!"

"Ughhhh. Yeah, yeah."

With a little smirk Zoro goes back to relaxing. Or maybe he was going to have a quick nap before going. Either way he was resting.

So Usopp decides to walk down to his workshop to double check his inventory and make a checklist of everything he needs to buy. After about an hour or two, right as he was about to go to Franky and ask if he also needed any parts, he hears a knock on his door. Usopp opens it to find Sanji.

Sanji leans against the doorway while lighting a cigarette and asks. "Dish duty and grocery duty huh?"

Usopp replies with a “Man, shut the hell up."as he rolls his eyes.

Which earned a chuckle from Sanji. "I'm gonna go wake the Marimo up now so you better hurry up."

"Wait, I gotta ask Franky a couple of things before I go."

Franky then pops his head from his workshop and proceeds to ask, "What do ya need to ask me?"

Usopp was surprised to see him there, not that it was unusual to see the in his own work room. Usopp just thought he was still with Robin or something. Probably just didn't hear Franky coming down because he was so focused on his supply check.

"Since I'm going shopping I wanted to know if ya wanted me to get you any parts before they sell out of what we need or something."

"Aw, thanks little bro! I need like about 20 of the 35-67-20 seals and 10 of those 45-80-12 seals and  about 100 or maybe even 200 nuts and screws of all the standard sizes and also three bouquets of Tulips, Rhododendrons, Zinnias, Plantain lilies and Day Lilies."

"Three?"

"Yeah, I looked for some flowers that were deer and people safe. So I could give one bouquet to Robin, another for Chopper and the last for Nami to brighten their rooms a little!"

"Aw that's sweet! But don't you think Chopper might eat those? Considering that those flowers are safe for deer? Although he isn't technically a deer but a reindeer."

Franky stood there in silence along with Usopp and Sanji. All of them ponder the question that was just asked. Usopp thinks this might be the longest time Franky has ever stayed quiet. He then starts to walk away as he said to Usopp "So the seals, nuts and screws! Get 'em for me will ya? Thanks little bro!" And proceeded to go to the deck, probably to question Chopper whether he likes to eat flowers or not. Sanji then mumbled something under his breath.

"What was that Sanji?"

"Nothing, just wondering what I should make for dinner, anyways now that that's over with come on."

They walked out over to the deck to find Zoro not there. Or in any of his usual sleeping spots.

"ARE YOU KIDDING ME!"

"God fucking dammit. He probably thought we left him or some shit."

"That damned moss head, it's like he literally has moss in his head instead of an actual human brain. I'd say I can't believe this, but this is pretty on par for that dumbass."

"Should we split up and look for him before we go shopping?"

"We can't, we need to buy the groceries before the other crews clear the market of everything. If I can't get everything I need, that bitch is gonna pay!"

"Okay so what's the plan? Just buy the groceries?"

"Usopp look, I'm gonna need you to buy everything on this list I made for you," Sanji gives him a list and rips another list in half and gives Usopp one half. "I'll handle half of the Marimo's list and you get that half, now I can count on you to buy all of them?"

Usopp smirked and replied confidently, "Nami ain't the only that can get a good bargain!"

"Hell yeah, Make me proud!

.

Usopp was arguing with a lady about the rice that Sanji needed him to buy. He heard from another vendor that he gets all his rice from here because her rice was high quality and delicious. The woman was tough, she looked pretty with her hair tied up and wrapped up in a bandana. However her stand looked a bit old and out of order. It could use some renovation to make sure that it would still draw in customers as well as keep to keep the stand itself safe and stable.

"My final offer! 10,000 berries for 40 kilograms of your finest rice!"

"Hah! The lowest I'll go is 16,000 for 30 kilos."

"What if I said please?"

"Hmm, 15,500 for 30."

"And if I said I'd help you repair your food stand?"

"Now you're talking! 12,500 for 30!"

"Deal! Pleasure doing business ma'am!"

"Like wise."

As Usopp shook her hand he felt proud of himself, he could understand Nami in a way. Getting a bargain did feel pretty good. But then he realised his mistake. He couldn't carry all this rice. Well technically he could, but that would take around two or three trips. Not only did that sound exhausting but it was starting to get dark and he still hasn't bought what Franky needs yet. He starts to think hard on what to do until he hears a loud yell from across the street.

He looks over and, oh. Oh no.

"Hey! You're the sniper for the Strawhats aren't ya?"

This was one of the last people he wanted to see, one of exact reasons he did not want to stop at this damn island.

This was NOT a good day for Usopp.

Eustass Kidd. A man said to not have any qualms with killing and pillaging, thought to even enjoy it with a bloody smile on his face. Said to enjoy his feasts filled with booze, food and bodies dead and alive. A man that Usopp, would obviously be scared of.

And although that may be true, it wasn't like a brave warrior of the sea to be afraid of some rival crew. No. A brave warrior would stand his ground, whether he was outnumbered or weaker than his opponent. So a brave warrior he will be. Until Kidd leaves at least.

"Where's that shitty little kid anyways?"

Usopp was still mentally preparing to talk to him! And he couldn't act like his usual self right now! He had to adopt someone else's personality or something!

"Hey! You ignoring me or something you brat?"

As of right now, he could only think of a response similar to whatever Usopp thinks Luffy would say. Which was probably the worst response he could use. But it was better than nothing, so before Kidd became even more irritated he used the "Luffy" response.

"W-Who're you calling a brat! I'm only four years younger than you!"

Shit. As soon as Usopp finished his sentence, there was some kind of glint in Kidd's eye. Which Usopp presumed it to be murderous. "Of all the people to copy, did I really have to pick Luffy?" He thought as Kidd started to walk over towards a overthinking Usopp.

"Oh really? So you're the same age as that stupid captain of yours?"

Fuck, screw this. He's just gonna act like himself. He backs away from Kidd trying to get more space between them, which was useless because Kidd followed his each step.

"If you hurt me, uh. Luffy will come after you!"

He's getting closer he's almost right in front Usopp.

"Who cares about your captain? He ain't here now. What I wanna know is, what you’re gonna do."

What?

He leans over and whispers into Usopp's ear, "What would you do to me, huh?"

He then pulled away and smirked at Usopp. Taking in his flushed face.

"So you want help?"

"W-Whuh? Um. I-"

Kidd sighed and said, "THE BAGS? Do you need help with the bags? You know, the shit you have in your hands?"

"Oh! Uh, no? I mean. No I-, I mean yes I. Haha sorry. Just. Gimme a moment."

Holy fuck? What the fuck was that? What the FUCK was that? That was so fucking hot and terrifying holy shit what.

"Could you, h-help me with the rice? That'd be really helpful and um."

Kidd looks at Usopp, and asks with an aggravated tone, "What?"

"My name is Usopp. Uh, yeah."

Kidd raised an eyebrow and looked him dead straight in the eye. He laughed, and replied with a smile "I know."

This man is going to be the death of him. He didn't think he’d die like this but it doesn’t really matter what kind of death he has does it?

"So where do you need to go?"

"Well I need to go to the parts shop and maybe the junkyard if we have time."

"Sick. So which way?"

"Well a vendor I talked to before said that the parts shop should be further down a couple of streets and that I'd need to take a right turn at the red bar then proceed down that street and then we'd find it."

"Well then hurry up, I ain't got all day you know."

The walk was quiet, and quickly turning into an anxiety churning venture. He didn't understand what was happening. Well, okay. Usopp understood that Kidd just, appeared out of seemingly nowhere and practically invited himself in on this little errand run the moment they met. It's just that, it was like the whole situation just, didn't click in his head for some reason? That must have been a joke or something right? Maybe this was a dream? Or he's actually on the ship! Unconscious from Nami's punch! Maybe-

“God you’re so fucking slow! Do you need me to carry you too?”

“Wh- No! I can walk by myself! I was just thinking a little too hard a-and besides, these bags are a bit heavy so of course I’d be a bit slow. If I didn’t have these bags I bet I’d have gotten to the junkyard already!”

Usopp thought to himself. “What am I saying!? He’s gonna break my body into pieces if I keep going with whatever the hell I’m talking about!”

However even as Usopp thought that, he couldn’t stop talking. “And on top of that, I’m only walking slow like this, cause so you can keep track of me!”

And right as Usopp thinks “STOP THAT! IF YOU KEEP GOING HE MIGHT-“

“You wanna put that to the test, runt?”

Fucking. Goddamit. Maybe, he could get out of this, Usopp thought. He can get out of this right? He’s Usopp! He can get out of anything!

“I’m not sure if you’d want that wouldn’t wanna show you up in front of-“ While Usopp tried to talk his way out Kidd had already decided that they were racing.

“Five.”

“Huh?”

“Four.”

“Wait, Kidd you don’t want to-“

“Three.”

“You really don’t want to do thi-“

“Two.”

“Kidd, I. I’m not ready! I gotta do all this stuff to-“

“One.”

In the last second Usopp resigned to his fate, as he thought well, he might as well die trying. So right as Kidd was about to say zero, Usopp instead yelled.

“ZERO!” And started booking it.

Things I Think About, Vol. 56

Because I love y’all, a silly little bonus one that was always worth doing. Surprised we didn’t get it before. Something that’d be a lot more fun to check if this pet theory ends up surprising us all but either way we have enough to go on. Kiku’s one of the ones who met the entire Straw Hat crew, spent a lot of time with them. What did she think?

Luffy - Funny one. Same love for the goofy charmer and his antics...but also because of the fun quirks of their story together probably sees him as way more mature than most. The one person who might actually describe that rapscallion as well-mannered.

Zoro - Skilled, but rather rude. 

Nami - It’d be a shame if we didn’t get more of this one because it has the most potential. The bath scene was really cool, it implies a fair amount of trust was there already and Nami not caring would naturally be meaningful. But...she’s Nojiko’s age and the little bit we see of Shinobu/Kiku tracks too. These two spend much time together it’ll inevitably end up looking like female Zoro/Sanji. Catty, sisterly bond complete with that “Only I get to mess with her” vibe. (Robin can, but chooses not to because it’s funny)

Usopp - Poor girl. Brother Izo vouched for him. She’d be more gullible than Chopper. It might reach critical mass and actually leave Usopp feeling a little guilty about his shameless lies.

Sanji - Another one with a lot of potential, 1000x better if you let Sanji be the butt of the joke over her. If you even need to. Like, being real for a sec would Sanji even care in a case like this? Always felt it could go either way, or just dodge the question. Or...the best way. Fucking with him. What I wouldn’t give for a scene of Sanji going gaga over some local lady, only for Kiku to run him down acting like a jealous girlfriend just to get him back on track. Or an old Honjo joke, teasing young Yahiko that if he tried really hard, “you could grow up just like me.” 

Chopper - This is just canon. What a lil cutie. Girls like cute things. Would like to knit silly costumes because Kiku’s lowkey a lil weird, but exercises restraint because that territory is claimed by...

Robin - Looks up to her, but this is an easy trap. It wouldn’t be like Toki or Tsuru, they’re more different personalities than it looks on the surface. Two takes on the same struggle. Robin’s the wallflower, Kiku the people pleaser. One’s quiet and cool on the outside but has a way weirder thought process than anyone would guess, the other melodramatic and cutesy because she’s actually pretty intense & high strung.  

Franky - Obviously more -_- than *_*. Given. But there’s a respect there, he does give off major Oden energy. The one of the gang that will never fall for the little miss innocent act. 

Brook - “This one has so many questions, but it’d be rude to ask.” 

Jinbei - Friend shape detected. Shark Daddy is basically what I’d imagine Kawamatsu’s dad being like. Even though I think they’re about the same age now. Though the reason her and Matsu probably get along doesn’t apply. Earnestly believes the “new guy har har” jokes because that track with what she knows. I always thought a cool scene for end of Wano would have been Jinbei making good on that by putting his foot in his mouth with Kawamatsu. 

[highly-opinionated-ramblings]

One day, Nami walked into the galley and asked, with no preamble whatsoever, “how do you guys want to die?”

A moment of silence greeted her words as the rest of the crew processed that. But, not that long a moment, because during long stretches at sea with little else to distract them, strange topics of conversation had become something of a norm. It was often how they entertained themselves, especially on stormy evenings like this one with nothing else to do but wait for dinner to be ready.

“Method, or general state of being?” Robin asked, carefully replacing her bookmark in the book she’d been reading.

“Whatever comes to mind first, I guess.”

“That’s easy,” Sanji said, glancing dreamily up from where he was stir frying some vegetables at the stove. “If I’m gonna die, I want it to be by being smothered by a beautiful woman’s-”

“Yeah, yeah, I’m sure we can all fill in the rest of that sentence for ourselves. Have some fucking class, would you?”

“Well, it feels like stating the obvious, but I think I’m going to have to go with old age,” Robin said serenely, ignoring Sanji as usual.

“I guess you’re right about that.”

“Not a very likely death for a pirate, that’s for sure.”

“I’m with her, though,” Chopper put in. “And, if I could pick, I wouldn’t want to know it was coming.”

“Mmmm…I get what you mean, by that,” Usopp mused, “but at the same time, I feel like the more manly answer would be to face death head-on…”

“I don’t care as long as I become the pirate king first,” Luffy said. “What about you, Zoro?”

“Sword.”

“Oh.”

“What? She said the first thing that comes to your mind.”

“Well, I thought you were going to say something cool. Like that time everyone almost got turned into wax, and you were doing that pose-”

“That’s not cool, Luffy. That was never cool.”

“I thought it was pretty cool.”

“You wanna change your answer?”

“Hmm…Nah, I don’t think so. Because, if I become the world’s greatest swordsman, and then someone else comes along and kills me with a sword, then, that would've been the end of it anyway, you know?”

“No.”

“I get what you’re sayin’!” Franky said, banging a fist on the table in emphatic agreement, making the silverware settings rattle. “That’s the manliest answer of all, for sure!”

“What’s your answer, Franky?”

“Me? Well, this ain’t the answer you wanted, I’m sure, but I have this whole plan to make an immortal body for myself-”

“Nevermind, forget I asked.”

“As someone with a rather unique perspective on the matter,” Brook said, “I can tell you that poison is probably not the best way to go! It was quite painful.”

“I’m sure it was.”

“But, it was something of a comfort to be surrounded by friends and crewmates at the time. That part is only painful now, as the lone survivor.”

“Dying among friends, huh. That’s a nice thought.”

“Yeah, it is.”

“You haven’t given your answer yet, Nami.”

“Oh, well, I was going to say in my sleep, but if Franky’s talking immortality, then I think I’m just gonna stick with him.”

“Oh yeah! I’ll make plenty, one for everyone!”

“Wouldn’t that be nice.”

“Yohoho! Surely, living among friends beats dying among them anytime!”

“Alright, alright, let’s leave that there, before anyone starts getting too sappy, shall we? Besides, dinner’s ready. Come get your food.”

[sleepyone2three]

That whole last ending sequence in the final episode episode of Arlong Park really hits hard though 😭 This whole arc has absolutely wrecked me though. My standards are too high and I fear nothing will live up to it. Final Thoughts 👇and they're in no particular order/all over the place since I wrote them as I thought of them.

Fuck Arlong

The hat scene wrecked me

Again, the whole ending sequence from the note placement to that last pinwheel spin is so good I can't even put it into words

All of the meaning behind Nami's new tattoo down to the aesthetic. Such a simple yet elegant design too.

"I'LL always be YOUR friend, Nami!"

Luffy just took down the man the literally owned and made Nami miserable for the past eight years and is using the most non possessive verbage possible he's letting her know it's always her choice at the end of the day I can't with this boy 😭

We'Re NoT goNna hUrt HeR

With grease and meat all over his face and his mouth still stuffed

It was at that moment Genzo realized he had nothing to worry about

Nojiko getting the tattoo for Nami though! She's such an amazing big sister

Oh my goodness yes doctor man please tell Zoro off for not taking better care of himself because I will if you don't

Usopp's fight was honestly pretty funny and I enjoyed it

Oh my God I just remembered the sea monster cow and I felt for so bad for it, Sanji and Luffy were so mean

On that note, wtf is up with Luffy and hurting cute animals? First Shushu and now this? Someone call peta on this boy

I wasn't a huge fan of how obnoxious johnny and yosaku were but I loved that they were basically a stand in for the audience/riff on oc fan characters and self insert fics (which I totally don't write all the time whaaaaat why would you ask) and so self aware that I can't even be mad most of the time.

Nami stealing everyone's wallets is such a rad way to prove she's self sufficient and going to be okay out on her own

Also not letting anyone say thank you is such a mood

She does what she wants

Luffy you're the captain, you sweet stupid enabler

The pacing of the hat scene in so good of my gooooosh

Weirdly this arc has had some of the best edited recap intros so far

I honestly kinda wish we got to see Nami throw down in the final battle. She goes up ready to fight and then just doesn't, I'd have liked to see her at least beat up one fishman. But I also love how much the others go all out for her

I really liked the moment in Usopp's fight when he was going through all his lies and his tone gets more and more unsure and how it builds up to him declaring he'll never pretend to be a pirate again because he's going to be a pirate

Sanji trying summon good vibes? That's so dumb and cringe but I love it

Speaking of Sanji, I love that he thought to blow into the gills I was not expecting that kind of solution

Also, I love Sanji's character... as long as he isn't around women. Let him be a bitch to everyone, not just the guys.

And the the wounds opening up as the as Hachi is swimming? That was a great payoff

God the Mirabelle scenes hurt

Genzo's an amazing character and I really like him

Hajiko too, she's awesome

The little kid feels super tacked on tbh. He disappears for half the story and then comes back for a hamfisted monologue. Is this different in the manga? I sure hope so

I kinda love the Hawaiian shirt and bandages look on zoro, heavy trans masc vibes which I love

Yikes on the scene where Arlong rips off Zoro's bandages though dysphoria kinda triggered uhhg

I bought Sanji's cook book and there was no special orange sauce sauce recipe why did he not ask for crew contributions?

I'm honestly shocked the town had enough food for Luffy to gorge himself like that for three days, they're gonna need the money Nami left to recoup their losses

The ship flying and Luffy just having a blast the entire time had me wheezing

Stretching Luffy's head above water was such a brilliant and creative solution. Makes me wonder if the same could work for Buggy if he chop chopped his head off before sinking.

All in all, these dorks are so good for each other

[ishikawayukis]

HOLA WEEEEENAS!!!! OP anon here after disappearing for so long sjdjkwksje- had wonderful vacations but they were followed by some emotional and mental breakdowns but here we are 👊🏽✨ how are you Belle?? I noticed you changed your url :D✨

AY SI<333 the eyes don’t lie chico and neither does the heart, wci en serio fue maravilloso y tan emocionalmente cargado, I’m still 100% a Zoro girly but I will willingly become a Sanji defender any day dude nadie me va a insultar a ese hombre sin razón vayan a tener sus discusiones sin sentido de poder a otro lado🤺👊🏽

TE LO JURO ES QUE *punches air* okay so, I might be a little insane pero ya llegué al episodio 1112 JAJAJAJAJAHAHAJA PERO- literal Luffy es la encarnación de libertad (Nika, JOYBOY OMG-), he’s a not a hero even tho he might give the vibes of one: he’s a liberator!! whatever is restricting and holding back his friends he will fight it and get rid of it!! y si Luffy es tan inteligente emocionalmente, I very fondly call him dumb and silly but he’s so mature, a la edad de 6-7 vio a Shanks dejarse humillar por alguien que no vale la pena pelear y después darle una paliza cuando se mete con sus seres queridos. how can you remember all of that from that age and become conscious and mature enough to understand the reason behind it afterwards, and live by it for the rest of your life??

BIEN LINDOOOOOOS!!! es que la dinámica que mostraron funcionaba tan bien and I’m not gonna lie, I heard that part and thought the same JAJAJAJAJA Y PUEDE QUE SI SEA ASÍ porque si tomaron esa decisión personas que no hablan español pueda que solo buscaron la traducción básica y dijeron “hey they’re saying Black Leg guy!!” JAJAJAJAJ I’m not gonna lie, I also love all those ships but any ship with Luffy (sanlu, zolu, lawlu y demás pero no Nami JAJAHAJA) makes me SOOOO soft, yo sé que son representaciones fanon pero es que Luffy es así de lindo y capaz de traer luz a cualquier persona que ay no, lo quiero mucho al Luffy<3

y tú tipo “aaaaah, mira que bueeeenoooo” JAJAJAJAJAJA I honestly don’t know how would I react if I encounter a Sanji or Usopp or Nami hater like, I’ve seen people complaining or hating in comments on the websites I watched op and they literally have 0 sense or logic 💀 man I would die for Frobin, PERO EN WANO (oh boy I have so many things to say about wano) cuando van a entrar al palacio y Franky aparece en su moto y le dice a Robin “want a ride?” Y SIN DUDAR DICE SI TODA FELIZ CÁSENSEEEE!!! and then Brook takes her place and Franky is just like “whatever you can come I guess” JAJAJAJAJAJA also when they literally run over Big Mom LMAO ICONIC PERO Franky just turning around and saying “oh, I think we run over something, as long as it wasn’t over a pretty flower” Y MIRA A NAMI NOOO YO TAMBIEN LLORARA Y LO ABRAZO JAJAJAJAJA Franky best brother, best boyfriend, and best all-rounder award fr

los quiero mucho también estoy tan feliz que Jinbe ya sea un strawhat🫶🏽 más que vi los primeros dos episodios de Thriller Bark hace poco y casi lloro por Brook otra vez JAJAJAJA see this is why I hate those dudes even LUFFY who loves to get more powerful and fight powerful people has said not everything is about power, creo que lo dijo en la película Stampede que vi hace poco (debería volver a decirlo en el anime/manga😔👊🏽) Brook could literally be in an asylum, a risk to society even worse than most enemies yet he’s just making silly skeleton and panties jokes, everyone should be glad LMAO

ES CIERTO SAILOR MOON!!! más que después hacen la mini transformación de Luffy y Chopper imaginando el traje de Sanji AND THEN SANJI TRANSFORMS??? ngl mixed feelings at that moment porque me imaginé el conflicto interno pero cuando dice que se llamaba Soba Mask si me reí JAJAJAJAJAJSJSJA good for you man I’m so proud<3 y Law fanboying ahí enfrente pero diciendo “todos saben esto” YEAH OFC THEY DO YOU NERD 💀 I’m glad he broke it tho, like yeah it was cool and pretty useful but he doesn’t need it and he’s quite amazing as he is<3 kinda sad when his genes got awaken tho :c también casi lloro JAJAJAJAJA

nothing like an emotional and mental breakdown after a vacation, your brain truly was like yeah time to fuck shit Up

i diiiiid change my url it's what yuki deserves 😌 and i'm doing well! things are definitely not as shitty as they were LMAO

wci my beloved puedes creer q hay cualquier persona q dice q si zoro hubiese estado en wci le habría sacado la cresta a sanji y yo nuevamente me pregunto, ustedes ven one piece con el poto? AJJAAJ but yeah whole cake truly is a wonderful arc i'm so happy you enjoyed it!!

no soy nadie pa juzgar literal me vi toda la serie en 3 meses AJAJAJJ WHEN THE DRUMS STARTEEEEEEEEEEED the way i was shitting myself it was such a sick moment, he truly is liberation incarnated. and honestly luffy is dumb but he's also ridiculously smart the duality of a mc LMAO pero toda la razón vio cómo shanks se comportaba y dijo ah yo debería hacer lo mismo literal el mejor cabro 10/10

no pero literal "bien por ti" AJAJAJ i'm trying to learn how to ignore comments online because you're gonna find the most braindead people that only care about powerscaling so their only argument against nami and usopp is "well they don't do anything in the fights" once again, dejen de mirar one piece con el poto JAJAJ franky taking all of that in stride like ok brook it wasn't for you but you're my pal so you can do as you please LMAO la vez q aparecía franky en wano hacía algo maravilloso oda por favor dale más tiempo a este hombre es una necesidad a este punto

nooo si yo veo thriller bark de nuevo no lo logro, sería puro llanto constante sabiendo todo lo q va a pasar ajajajaj brook podría ser el loco más inútil de la vida y luffy igual lo tendría en su tripulación pq las ~vibes~ le importan más q el poder AJJAJA y honestamente? bien por el cuál es el punto si no es divertirse un poquito en el camino

THE SANJI TRANSFORMATIOOOOOOOON literally my fave thing because they gave 100% gave him the magic girl treatment LMAO that clip is one of my fave things because it's so unnecessary but so funny. and law being so dissapointed when sanji said soba mask instead of stealth black LMAO we know what you are nerd (también amo q ahí se formó literal el fanclub the north blue boys para sanji JAJAJA) sanji genes awakening.............. the promise with zoro.............. if oda ends up making that actually happen i will fly to japan and kick his ass. but also!! antes de q sanji destruyera el traje literalmente pensando "q versión de mi le serviría más a luffy" AMIGO!!! amigo por la chucha ya pasamos por esto luffy te ama de cualquier manera puedes ser cualquier versión de ti y luffy te va a seguir queriendo en su tripulación pq eres tUUUUUUUU SANJI POR FAVOOOOOOOOOR no necesitamos otro wci AJJAAJ

[buggy-d-hoe]

How far are you with the first chapter? I'm excited to read it. Zoro is my favorite character but I can make an exception with Sanji for you. Since you were talking about Sumi at work, give me some fruits. I'm going to update my story while I wait.

Dudeeeee, it's been a while since you logged on!!!!! Even though I see you almost every time I'm at work hahahaha.

First chapter is going great...eh...hahah. I always keep adding more sections because I'm unsatisfied with what I've written so far, hence why this chapter is over 4K right now. I'll tell you more about it when I see you D: PS I GET IT...YOU ARE A ZORO FANGIRL...LEAVE ME ALONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HAHAHAHA. I will not hesitate with the Buggy and Foxy spam!

Do you know realize how long this asks is going to be with the fruits? FINE THEN <3

🍎 [RED APPLE] Who does your OC value above all else?

Sumi values are represented with each member of the Straw Hats, hence why she holds them to highest regard: Luffy: Compassion Zoro: Loyalty Nami: Intelligence Usopp: Sentimentality Sanji: Respect Chopper: The Doctor's Code/Kindness Robin: Maturity Franky: Strong-Will Brook: Compassion Jinbe: Honor/Humility

🍒 [CHERRY] Who is your OC's perfect companion?

It's kinda hard to narrow it down haha. Probably the Straw Hats altogether as a whole because each of the members are unique and although there are moments where they don't get along or their priorities/values differ, at the end of the day, Sumi has her found family.

Individually, it would be a toss up between Usopp, Chopper, or Sanji. Usopp and Sumi are best friends and always work together with their weapons (Sumi often supplies Usopp with different ammo while Usopp creates her iron fan and its mods). Chopper and Sumi often converse over herbs and the medicinal properties they have and he's usually with her gathering them when they forage. Secretly he likes being carried by her around haha. Sanji because they emotionally invest in one another and they are usually on watch together (it would be Sumi’s turn but Sanji spares some time to just talk before he heads to bed). He also requests for herbs or plants for his food so Sumi will either add that to her forage list or he'll accompany her.

🍓 [STRAWBERRY] How do they feel about 'cute' things?

Sumi is a sucker for anything weird/cute. She pretty much adopts pets during the course of her journey. She gets Kalahari, her super spot-billed duck during their time at Arabasta (who is Karoo's adventerous girlfriend), Suki her South Bird from Jaya, Hatchan from Skypiea (Zoro HATES the name for obvious reasons and Sumi has forever banned Luffy from ever handling him again because we all know what he did with him....), Umi the toy size yagara Sanji gets her at Water 7, etc. Nami tells her that all of the pet's needs come straight out of her cut but Sumi is happy to accept the deduction. In the girl's room, she has a mini aquarium for Umi and Hatchan while the others stay outside.

She also collects weird, little knickknacks that Nami finds hideous but Robin seems to enjoy them.

🍅 [TOMATO] How misunderstood is your OC? In-universe or IRL.

Immediately, the crew (minus Sanji to some slight extent and Luffy) think that Sumi is stuck up and she is indeed standoffish. However, it's only because she lost her memories and so she's frightened and desperate to find out clues that she prioritizes that over socializing and letting her guard down. Luffy and Nami are eventually the first to accept her (Luffy finds out she's an herbalist and Nami is forced to share a room with her but slowly they get to know one another), then Sanji and finally Usopp. Zoro was the least welcoming member because he didn't trust her and so it took him a while to bring himself to be "nice". I think it was during Arabasta that he starts giving her a chance to prove herself.

🍉 [WATERMELON] What will your OC take to the grave?

Hmm..originally, when she regains her memories, Sumi wanted to take her past to the grave. She never wanted the others to find out about her origins until she is forced to face it. I don't want to spoil much, but I think I'm planning on putting this huge event during the time skip!

🍊 [ORANGE] Does your OC have a prophecy surrounding them? If they don't, what would it be?

Nope. Sumi is just an ordinary person...well minus the fact she's a princess on the run. IF she did have a prophecy...uhhh maybe that she would bring prosperity and life back to Gardenia, her kingdom, hence why she is on the run.

🥭 [MANGO] What colours best represent them and why? Does this differ from their favourites?

Oooo...this really gives me a chance to think. I don't want to go the cliche route and say green because of plants and purple for royalty (even though her full name is Sumire and that means purple).

Probably blue for fear and trust because Sumi starts of with the fear of the unknown and untrusting of anyone around her since she has no recollection of how she ended up in Loguetown since she finds out she's from the North Blue. She sees the Straw Hats as nothing more than a means for travel because she initially wanted to be dropped off at the first island they see, however she eventually earns not only their trust but she puts her life in their hands and in turn trusts them.

Definitely black for elegance and mystery. Nami caught on to this in the beginning and Sanji knew almost immediately but it wasn't his place to say. They noticed how refined Sumi would act and her mannerisms, but didn't think much of it at the time. It's only when Sumi leaves to return home does Nami start to piece everything together while Sanji had an inkling of her intentions. At first Nami thought it was because she was brought up like Kaya, wealthy and refined, but it became more and more apparent later on. Mysterious because obvious reasons hahaha.

Yellow for intellect because of Sumi's knowledge for herbs and how she works alongside Usopp for his weapons and Chopper for his medicine.

There is more, but these are definitely the main ones!

🍑 [PEACH] How do they show their kindness? How kind are they truly?

She's the type that when she shops, she will find something that reminds her of a crew member or recall that they liked or were in search for a particular item and buy it for them. However, she will just leave it lying around and they're either left wondering who it was or they would know immediately. Sumi is pretty kind because it was something she wished happened to her back when she was in Gardenia but I can't say much :)

🍌 [BANANA] Have parts of your OC been lost to time (in-universe)? What do they wish they could lose from themselves?

I guess you can say her faith in people she once trusted. I can't say much because it's part of her backstory, but over time, she distrusts everyone around her and it does take time for her to eventually learn to open herself and trust the Straw Hats.

What she does wish she can lose from herself is this barrier to automatically put her defenses up without giving the person a chance. She was hurt before and so she just immediately prepares for the worst instead of working with others. This does change eventually.

🍍 [PINEAPPLE] Pineapple on pizza or not?

Do they have pizza in One Piece? If not, she'll probably like it.

🍋 [LEMON] What is their kryptonite/ultimate weakness?

Anything cute and you can turn Sumi into a putty. She won't hesitate to stop a fight to be "gosh...too cute', earning a screaming session from either Zoro or Nami. You know how Sanji is expressive outwardly? Sumi is similar, but she internalizes it more.

🍈 [MELON] If they had to be put into a box, what box would it be and why?

But...why. What is this...JJK? HAHA.

🍏 [GREEN APPLE] How do they differ from the norm and how are they punished for it?

I'm gonna put this with the nobility instead of the general population in the One Piece world. Sumi is quite different from the rest of the nobility because she has seen the world through the eyes of ordinary folk. After she leaves Gardenia and forcibly keeping out of trouble, she sees the world outside the newspapers the seagulls bring and realizes that her kingdom really is in its own little world. She understands that life is indeed different from the one was she brought up in and accustomed to. From fancy china, gold silverware, and high class food, she is now eating off mismatched plates and battling for food against Luffy, while drooling over Sanji's dishes that are leagues better than what she had eaten (she won't admit it though hahaha).

I wouldn't say she is punished for it. She learns to embrace it and it becomes her new norm.

🍐 [PEAR] What is their current social standing? If they could change it, would they, and to what?

She was a princess so I guess she was upper class/rich? However, I can't really go into too much detail without revealing too much, but she manages to sneak out some funds. It does take some getting used to, but she'll manage.

She wouldn't change it for the world. She is content with her life with the Straw Hats.

🥑 [AVACADO] What will they never back down about, even if it makes them seem bad?

At first, she is a little stubborn and refuses to ask for help, even when she is offered it. She feels a little bad turning down offers, but she doesn't want to burden anyone. She wants to do things on her own initially, like foraging and just finding ways to return home and is a little selfish. She doesn't want to get in the way of the crew's dreams and I think time spent and witnessing what happens during the course of the series. She does have one moment...ahhh I can't say much :)

🥝 [KIWI FRUIT] How does their outside appearance differ from who they are?

Sumi is relatively pretty by One Piece standards. Definitely not Boa Hancock or Princess Shirahoshi levels, but she can catch people's attention. However, she is a standoffish at first, maybe a little rude. People think she's easy to approach because she looks either inviting or friendly but Sumi is the first to check out of introductions. Once she's comfortable, then she's a little more animated or conversational.

🍇 [GRAPES] What's their circle of people/their species like? What dynamic would they be called?

The Straw Hats Pirates? Dynamic? Easy!

FOUND FAMILY <3

[externalblue34]

Two Piece

This is a story where Luffys brother named Monkey D Seth ate the Sage Sage Fruit. But should be later be revealed as the god god Fruit Model: Monkey King we can make the powers up later although i already have a pretty good idea for it. Now Seth doesn't look anything like luffy but is the same age as him and is a bit smarter than Luffy. He would have Madara Uchiha's hair when he was younger. Not the long hair he had in the war, the one he had when he was 13. He has fair skin and onyx eyes wears an open black vest like luffy with white shorts and black sandals like Natsu from fairy tail. He has an athletic built. Now as for the abilities of the Sage Sage Fruit: He would have Superhuman Capabilities and mixed martial arts and later ki(in the war of the best). He also has a form that he learnt during he and Luffy's 10 year training called limiter release that he uses in enies lobby to keep up with luffy's gear 2. He must look completely human just with red Irises with Black Crossed Pupils and red aura surrounding him.A guy named Dante a.k.a demon blade Dante who practices the demon blade style and has two katanas one red one called Indra and a black one called Leviathan he joins with Zoro. He could be Kuina's brother he wears a red Kimono and has long black hair tied with a band also 17.And for the one who would be joining with Usopp would be usopps brother named Ken a weapon specialist and also a shooter like his bro. He's also an Inventor just like his brother. Next would be Ryuji a blue haired boy who practices Taekwondo, he alongside Dante would be rivals of Seth. Seth, Ryuji and Dante are all a bit weaker than Luffy, Zoro and Sanji. But could later in the story keep up with them.Do you think we should add a girl with Nami? Never mind that let's just add one hmmm...what about a girl named Ami who has strawberry blonde hair in a Ponytail she can be Nami's best friend. She also 17. Her power would be high intelligence, Martial arts and a form of Telekinesis but not overpowered. She can push and pull things but must train to lift heavier objects. I don't know a name for it yet though...maybe you would. Oh and I also created Arlong a brother named Mujin The Superfishmen who stole energy pills to make him stronger. The energy pills comes from one of vegapunks experiments and was sent to fishmen island. And Seth's father can be Rocks D Xebec. So I really worked hard on this. I can even create a villain for each arc just please accept. I'm not good with writing but can create character profiles. I even have ideas for a character that would join alongside Franky and I think we should make him best friends with Ken. Do you think I should create a character that would appear alongside Jimbei because I can I don't have a problem to do so. I don't want any credit, I just want to see this story.
