Animal Crossing X Resident Evil

wow.... i cant believe they were abandoned and Luffy collected them like treasures.....

the rest of the strawhats/friends that were gonna be in this post but i decided against it

Not all of them were abandoned by individual people like family members and their community, but the government. Specifically Franky and Law.

Vivi was gonna be in there too but i couldnt,,,, really,,,,, fit her in there.

Rkgk

one piece saved my life man

im currently in wano arc rn and you know what the sight of law with that kimono nearly drive me crazy the scene where he is in imprisonment grunting moaning while covering in blood???? with THAT face????? after "surgeon of death" ppl should start call him "king of pirates's beloved treasure"

the slobber is surely law’s fault

So Luffy and Law reunion after two years, some totally biased thoughts...

Luffy really just recognized Law right away like that, huh? After two years of not meeting at all, and barely having interacted prior to Marineford. What was the first thing he recognized that he was sure that's the guy who saved him then? (Is there something you would like to share with the class, Luffy?)

It's so funny because nothing could've prepared Law for Luffy's sheer joy when they met again. He was so genuinely happy to find Law and it's ruining Law's emo vibes.

Like damn, he built up a reputation!

Pretty much everyone else up to that point has called him cruel, ruthless and all that. Back to Marineford and Sabaody, people talked about bad rumors about him. Even when he saved Luffy, they doubted his intentions. They were so sure there must be a catch to Law's help. (There was no catch.) It's just fun to think about because here Luffy is treating him as something good that happened in his life. Poor Law couldn't handle that much positive attention.

And uhm no, trying to deflect saving someone's life from death as "nothing" or something like that wouldn't really work. Especially when Law really didn't need to risk it all like that to get Luffy out of Marineford. They barely had a connection and even a potential rivalry is hardly worth the risk. Calling it a "whim" is the most Law can call it before he starts questioning his life again. But whatever the reason is, the fact still stands that he helped Luffy... And isn't that what matters, anyways? To Luffy, at least.

Law: "We are both pirates." (we're enemies)

Luffy: ":D Okay, anyways, you saved my life."

Law !!!! He ADORES you already !! It's over !! And giving more helping hand doesn't actually help your case !!

Also more exhibits of Luffy being excited over Law that I just find so cute. The way he perked up when Law was mentioned... He likes him.

He didn't say anything during Brownbeard's story until Law was mentioned, Luffy my guy.... He likes him so much, not necessarily romantic, but Luffy really just likes Law.

Law really stood no chance and asking Luffy for that alliance was the final nail to his coffin. He sealed his fate to be Luffy's super duper mega best friend FOR LIFE.

eclipse…

when one piece said "existing is not a crime" and when it said "thank you for loving me" and when it said "tell me you want to live" and when it said "being alone is worse than being hurt" and when it said "you're my friend" and when it said "someday you will find kind people" and when it said "there are people out there who will love you" and when it said

MONKEY D. LUFFY HC: BEETLE

Since he's closely associated with the sun and of course, Nika, I think linking Luffy's love for beetles and the sun would be an interesting next step

As many may have already know, the beetle specifically the scarab beetle is closely linked to the ancient Egyptian god Khepri who is a sun god

Knowing this, I like to headcanon that Luffy's favourite beetle is the dung beetle. The scarab especially

Kids his age would usually pick the rhinoceros beetle, Hercules beetle or stag beetle as their favourite which is common for beetle lovers

Luffy on the other hand, has always loved dung beetles most of all. He likes the humble insect as it rolls its ball of dung, finds them silly and fun. Luffy especially likes how scarabs 'dance' on their ball of dung, even dancing along to the beetle's rhythm

Because of his adventures, fighting against boredom and responsibility as a captain, Luffy rarely ever gets to slow down and talk about beetles. On occasion that he does remember, he sometimes talk about it with Chopper and Usopp. Most of the time though, the conversation tends to focus on beetle fights and having fun

Then, he meets Torao

Torao who prefers the quiet and reading books as well as sora comics. For whom that Luffy wants to learn to slow down and appreciate the quiet and thoughtful patience. The person that Luffy always wants to tuck himself by Torao's side and rambles quietly about anything and everything about his beetles and knows that the older captain is listening

Luffy knows this because whenever he gets talking, Torao would have an arm around Luffy's waist. But whenever he gets to his beetles, Torao would always tighten his hold and rubs a thumb against Luffy's hip

As time goes on, Torao would slowly lower whatever book he's reading and would actually ask questions. The 1st time that happened, Luffy couldn't stop rambling and answering each and every question Torao has for hours

Luffy didn't even notice that it'd been way past lunch too

And in that time, those gold eyes (different from the bright rays of the sun though. If anything, Torao's gold eyes are cool and luminous like the moon of the autumn equinox), would never stray from him

It never fails to make Luffy sway closer to the older captain, telling him about the little things too. About his favourite, the scarab and how warm his chest feels when Torao doesn't laugh and gives him that faint smile and asks to tell him why the dung beetle is his favourite

So he does

He tells Torao everything that comes to mind about his favourite scarab. Its quirks and facts. Like why they roll dung or how good of a navigator the little creatures are. And Torao?

He listens and asks questions. Sometimes simple. Sometimes complicated. But always curious and clever

It makes Luffy grin, smiles so wide that he rambles even more. Makes him crawl and settle onto Torao's lap in his excitement that he barely noticed when Torao supports him instead of pushing him off. Makes him wants to stare into those golden autumn moon eyes for hours on end because he never, ever wants Torao to look away from him

It makes him drag Torao by the hand to dance the scarab beetle's silly little dance that earns him a laugh that's far better than any gold or riches

Which is why when he finds a really old amber fossil with a beautiful scarab immortalised inside that had somehow hidden itself within the band of his hat, Luffy knows who's it from

It tooks hours for either crew to pry him away from cuddling Torao like there's no tomorrow because of that

*bonk*
