Me When My S/o Breathes

i missed my man so i wrote this. enjoy.

⅋ .  R.Z.:  a  perspective  ⸝⸝  one  piece  desired  reality  . . .ᐟ

“In a rare moment aboard the Thousand Sunny in which Roronoa Zoro thinks of the past, he can’t help but focus on the first time he had met his captain…

He remembers how she had looked at him with her eerily blank and intensely all-seeing eyes all the way up from the wall she had climbed. He remembers how see-through he had felt, as if his not-yet-captain had seen all he had to offer her (three swords and a dream) with one, long look. And he is sure she had seen, as she has always been like that. Always understanding people with a glance, or a few throwaway words, maybe a conversation if the subject is particularly difficult (see: Nico Robin). Always seeing through the bullshit people spew because she is above it━being the type of person that values honesty and bravery ’n all.

He laughs as he thinks of the sentence “What makes you think I’d wanna play pirates with you?”. He hadn’t fooled anyone that day. He might’ve meant it at that moment, but his resolve had broken down at the words she had uttered back to him, full of the confidence that nowadays makes him weak in the knees and his chest hurt with pride and love love love and loyalty, “Oh, we won’t be playing.” that mischievous/kind/silly smile, “We’ll be the real deal!”, and “If you’re the Demon of the East, you must be strong. The future King of the Pirates needs a strong swordsman at her side, no?” and goddamn him if he ever says and lies that the flattery hadn’t made him flush a bit, and widen the cracks in his resolve. There his captain was, sweet and young in a way she hasn’t been since Marineford, convincing the infamous pirate hunter of the East Blue to join her non-existent pirate crew with nothing but her words, her big deep brown eyes, and her devastating grin, and a bit of blackmail (though she always denies that small part). He remembers telling himself that he would leave her behind after she tells him the location of his swords instead of following her into an adventure that would probably make his hair grey before reaching twenty (and he was nineteen!), and he laughs and laughs at his past self. He had (miraculously) found his way around that foul marine base and found his swords, but the bright and unforgettable presence of the girl with the straw hat and big smile was too magnetic to leave behind. He had squared up for a future of watching the back of the girl that had the sun shining out her ass and joined her in the fight against the douchebag with the axe-hand and metal jaw, called her captain, and followed her to her stolen dinghy boat to sail off on an adventure and new life he would never, ever find himself regretting.

He remembers, and he stops thinking of the past. He thinks of now. He thinks of who they are, fours years after the fact. He thinks of how there hasn’t been a single thing he wasn’t willing to do for that girl/this woman ever since that very first day. He is her determined, ambitious, dangerous, loyal first mate and her dedicated, kind, shy, soft, loving husband. She is his captain and his one love, his desires and his lust, the reason for his ambition. He has dedicated his dream of being the greatest swordsman to her, to be the worlds greatest at the right hand of the freest person in the world━the King of the Pirates, to be the protective blade for his wife to wield. And she has given him her endless love, her small and big smiles, her soft chuckles, her delighted cackles, her protection, her promises, her warmth, and a glimpse of the bright and dark side of the sun he though he could never see.”

wrote this instead of sitting down and studying for my VERY real and VERY important final final exams. gonna shift anyway but… yeah. hahahahhaahahaha (currently having a nervous breakdown).

nevermind that…. THIS MAN LOOOOOOOOVES ME HAHAHAHAH it makes me so so so happy. i would make a proper introduction for this dr, but i genuinely don't know how i could do it better than this━by writing an outside POV drabble of the person who knows me best thinking about the day we met and how awesome-ly in love we are. if its not obvious, i have taken the place of monkey d. luffy, because i wanted zoro as my s/o but i also couldn't out-do the crazy soulmate-ish bond he and luffy have, so ta-da! I AM LUFFY (though my name, personality, backstory, yada yada yada are all altered to my liking). the dr also does not follow canon one piece because i don't want it to. it is self preservation. anyway,,,, that is enough info dumping . i'll stop here for now .

I SHIFTED

I DON’T ACTUALLY BELIEVE THIS

IT WAS SMALL (LIKE TWO MINUTES) AND I WASNT REALLY DOING ANYTHING I WAS JUST LAYING IN BED AND TRYING TO FALL ASLEEP AND WHEN I WOKE UP I HEARD SOMEONE CALL OUT MY DR NAME AND IT SOUNDED LIKE A GIRL IDK (WHICH MAKES SENSE BASED ON WHERE I WAKE UP AFTRER SHIFTING) SO I WAS LIKE TRYING TO CALM DOWN BUT THEN I LIKE WOKE UP IN MY OR/CR

PROGRESSSSSSSS! <33

i’ve made exactly two posts about the ambitious careers i want to have in my hp drs, but there are times where i also want to live an ambition-less, quiet life where i just exist. maybe work part-time in my dr mothers cafe or something. only read, watch films, take long walks, go on spontaneous trips, etc. live in a small town and have an almost romcom-but-also-sitcom life. the days are monotonous but my mother is funny as hell and the vast internet is for me to find entertainment in. sometimes a dr doesn’t have to be all action packed .

marauders au x bridgerton. ehehehehehehehe. mm

thinking ……………:::.

I reblogged this a little bit ago; I'm thinking about luffy and shanks now, so this is just a surface-level rambling post about them:

the red hair pirates weren't around often, but op is of course littered with examples of choices luffy makes based on what he absorbed from shanks and his crew- significant, very core beliefs about people and piracy. baby king was in his hardcore formative years and had some pretty impactful experiences as he hovered around, and tagged along with those guys. some are explicit situations (like jaya island) and some are scenes with an implicit "I see shanks in him" vibe. now grown-up luffy totally runs parallel to uncle shanks in a number of cool ways, but I'm always tickled in the sense that these two are like, insanely unassuming but equally both legendary and wildly powerful: Folks think one's an idiot and that the other's a drunk hippie but they're both emperors with larger than life personas, who kick the shit out of people and who upset the ruling order regularly- a really entertaining and compelling combination.

the scene ending the summit war was unbelievable: mihawk, sengoku and anyone watching red force arrive essentially froze and braced themselves. and his strength on display during his strike against the kid pirates (only after being provoked). and his assistance from afar on wano. absolutely shanks is feared and respected in an almost reverential way, but the day before, he was probably hanging upside down hanging from the mast, singing a pirate tune off-key and fudging up the lyrics- benn had to climb up there and get him down. and after that he probably rolled up to one of the islands under his protection and scared off some terrorizing hooligans. he's so rad. then luffy- scrappier and more chaos-inducing, lord what's this kid gonna do next kind of thing, but respect for his exploits and a sense of dread when he does his thing are mounting exponentially. he doesn't mimick shanks- luffy's his own wacky ass luffy, but a few pieces of shanks are fused to, and encouraging for, his carefree spirit. no other emperor in the past had, or presently has, a bent like those two in conclusion: shanks and luffy are the chillest whatever dudes with terrifying kill switches- from nose picking and spaced out jolly hangtime straight to masterful haki street fighting mortal kombatant boys in 0.03 seconds and I can't tell you how much I love that

and the sandals. the wearing of the damn sandals. freedom on the high seas = sandals

in another reality i am tongue-fucking him . but sure. Let me suffer through a two hour physics exam. sure. great

never take high level physics if you know whats good for you i SWEAARRRR
