It’s funny to me that even Oda seems to have had misgivings about killing off Ace

He didn't seem realize just how impactful Ace continuing to live on would've been for the story and Ace’s character. It really feels like he just killed him for drama

I said this before already but the son of Roger being executed feels redundant because Roger already was executed. Ace already thought his life is worthless and you could say it's in character for him to sacrifice it for Luffy, but it just feels like things are playing into the Marines hands without it having enough of a payoff or justification for the narrative itself. Not to mention all his mother Rouge suffered to make sure he could live after she gave birth to him…..?

There's plenty that still could've been done with his character. What was even the point of him being Rogers son other than him getting executed before really accomplishing anything (sorry)

Coupled with the fact that most anything we know about Ace outside of his relationship with Luffy or Roger is information we learn in supplementary material that feels like it’s exaggerated/unwarranted because Oda never brought him up after Alabasta until Marineford (keeping in mind how short his screen time was in the manga compared to in the anime because him traveling with the strawhats was added in). Unless you count those silly one page cover stories.

I still think it would’ve been so much more interesting to see Ace be able to interact with Hancock and Rayleigh after the fight (with Luffy attached to him at the hip like glue, sobbing his eyes out because his big brother is still alive ugh I'm SICK).

Hancock would be acting like a bride trying to prove herself to a family member before they get married which would’ve been SO FUNNY as a gag (enough to make me forget certain things). And Rayleigh? Roger’s second in command? Could’ve finally given Ace a reason to be proud of his bloodline by telling him first hand accounts of his time on the Oro Jackson, so that Ace could learn to stop hating himself…missed opportunities.

And sure, Luffy’s reaction to Ace's death was gut wrenching and impactful, but the way he gets over it is so cheap to me because loss is so much more painful than knowing what you already have can actually fix so quickly. Especially with the loss of a family member or person you adored.

Sigh

It’s just…everything else in One Piece tends to make sense for the story and have real reason to be there, but Ace dying just doesn't…like of allll the characters to sustain horrible wounds and actually die from them why Ace? Damn.

Even if an asexual does find sex to be gross that still doesn't give you the right to infantalize them.

Ace with the Straw Hats!

Hug

It's nearly impossible to have a quiet and peaceful day with the crew, like the strawhats. Nami is mostly used to the noise on Going Merry but one day she gets fed up with Zoro and Sanji arguing. Not only are they extremely loud, but they've also already broken way too many things during their fights.

She decides that If they want to act like brats, then she's going to treat them as such. So she makes them apologize and hug each other in silence for an hour. None of them are happy about this punishment, but Nami threatened to raise Zoro's debt, and Sanji couldn't say no to her. It could be worse.

It's awkward enough for them to not incite any fight for a long time and Nami is quite proud of herself. She knows it won't last forever but at least now she knows how to handle them. It inevitably happens again. And again. And again.

Much to her surprise, those fights became more and more frequent. And what's even weirder is that she could see the way both Zoro and Sanji occasionally glanced at her to make sure she was nearby. It's almost as if they wanted someone to make them hug each other. As if they needed an excuse.... these idiots.

Soon, they don't even need Nami's help. When they aren't busy training, cooking or fighting, they cuddle together. Sometimes Luffy or Chopper would join them, but most of the crew knew it was their time.

After two years spent separately, they became extremely clingy. It's no surprise when they start sleeping in the same bed. What is surprising is that despite them behaving like a lovey-dovey couple, those oblivious idiots are STILL unaware of each other's feelings.

A Captain’s Love

A fully colored digital comic of the Strawhats from One Piece.

The first page only contains a panel with the words "A Captain's Love.“

The second page shows Luffy and Nami holding hands and smiling at each other. Pictured underneath is a close-up of their interlinked hands and the gray silhouette of a person asking "So, are you guys dating?" Another panel shows Nami's reaction: an appalled expression on her face and "huh?" written in bold red letters.

The second page depicts Luffy sitting on Zoro's lap, happily eating meat while Zoro is drinking. Next to them is a gray silhouette again, asking: "isn't that weird?" At the bottom of the page is Zoro's reaction: an intimidating glare with "WHAT" spelled out in big red capital letters behind him.

The third page contains a drawing of Luffy and Usopp, sleeping on spread out blankets and pillows on the floor while cuddling. Again, the silhouette of a person is in the corner, remarking: "you know what people might think." Usopp's reaction in an extra panel is giving the person a deeply disapproving side-eye, asking "oh yeah...?"

The fourth page depicts Luffy tighly hugging Robin while lifting her in the air as both of them are grinning. The gray silhouette of a person is asking: "Are you really gonna let him act like that with your girlfriend?" Pictured underneath is Franky, deeply confused expression on his face, only responding with a bewildered "uhh...."

The last panel shows Luffy, grinning and holding his hat. The asexual and the aromantic flag are pictured behind him.

"kiss my ass" - luffy, 2024

Big Luffy finds a weird looking cat.

dadan is the realest mom out there. she literally ran into a fire for her sons, two of which she had only known for less than a year. when she found 2/3 of her sons she IMMEDIATELY asked where the third was, and when ace was stubborn and said he wouldn’t leave without a fight, she backed him up and fought alongside him. someone get this woman a gold medal.

The prefect was lucky not to end up propelled into the air...

Brothers in every universe

Ace wakes up on a random island two years after his death as a ten-year-old. But he has no memory of his adult life. Sabo just died, and he has a little brother to look after. Or maybe an older brother?

There is a bit of time between Ace waking up and Luffy finding him.

Sorry this is so long I'm still trying to figure out how to do comic-y things.

POV: your brother comes back from the dead as a ten-year-old. Wdyd?

Dont trust any post i make with a yellow background, that means i did it very late at night while feeling uncharacteristically wistful and retrospective

I think about what Sabo feels about Ace often. What would he mourn most? The loss of a Friend, the grief of his brother, or the lack of a chance? How would he feel about someone who he only can see the waves of. Would he revere him? Would eating the fruit feel like a communion?

I dunno 🤷‍♀️

Bonus:

i saw a japanese fan tweet calling bepo-chan a yandere and died

(i don't think captain is capable of sensing danger from you)

human centipede joke or something i dont know

The worst part about Ace hating Roger is that Roger probably would have given Ace everything he'd spent his whole life looking for.

Roger was genuinely excited to know he was going to be a dad. He made sure that his kid wouldn't suffer because of him so he asked Garp to take care of them. He loved Ace before Ace was even born and he likely regretted not ever getting to meet his kid. We could also tell he loved kids from the way he interacted with Shanks and Buggy.

But due to a series of unfortunate events, this was never to be.

I dunno, I just don't think Ace would have hated Roger as much if he'd had the chance to meet the real Roger. Not the Roger the world made him out to be.

Roger would probably not have been the BEST dad, but he would try. And maybe Ace would have hurt a little less...

1-3 with Mahito!

PERFECT ROTAT--*ahem* sorry, am listening to Party Crashers while answering this xD

I'm still watching JJK, so I'll answer based on what I know!

Gush about your f/o’s sense of style/fashion!

-I love how, despite being established as a main villain, Mahito's fashion sense is not that far-fetched. It's simple, but it's done in a way where, even if you're a newcomer to JJK, you can tell from a mile, "Ohhh he's got some EEEVIL AF vibes--". It makes you all the more curious!

2. Gush about your f/o’s voice!

-One of my favorite things about Mahito, tbh! From what I remember from EP7's Juju Stroll (Juju Strolls are humorous post-episode skits), he sounds like one of them affably evil villains. I have a soft spot for that; it's funny how it contrasts his appearance xD.

3. Gush about your f/o’s smile!

-"That smile. That damn smile." Seeing Mahito smile is like a critical hit on my dokis. MAHITO SMILING IS ILLEGAL BECAUSE IT'S TOO CUTE--

More Mahitos. Because.

jjk men and cuddling

a/n: i’m like in the beginning stages of writers block so let’s fix that (also new format)

warnings: none

characters: itadori, megumi, inumaki, gojo, suguru, nanami, mahito

itadori

🕷 he takes up the entire bed and he’s a blanket hogger

🕷 i cant tell if he actually does it on purpose or if it’s just so you lie on top of him with your head buried in his chest/neck

🕷 he lets you wear his hoodie while you two nap

🕷 it’s always a surprise to see what shirt he’s wearing underneath it because he always picks really random shirts

🕷 it ranges from plain white t-shirts to a cursed ass image of patrick star with giant boobs

🕷 itadori mumbles a lot in his sleep but it doesn’t really make much sense

🕷 i get the vibe that itadori can fall asleep anywhere and anytime he wants, like it’s deadass a super power at this point

🕷 the second his head hits the pillow, he’s out

🕷 he tries to stay awake until you fall asleep but between the warm blanket and your own body heat on top of him, it’s pretty difficult

🕷 even in his sleep, he’s touching you in some way, even if it means he accidentally slaps you in face

megumi

🕷 megumi has a really hard time falling asleep most nights, so when you two do cuddle it has to be in a position where he can either read and be on his phone

🕷 if he does fall asleep, he sleeps on his back

🕷 freak 💀

🕷 you’re usually facing him, resting your forehead on his chest while his arms are wrapped around you or he’ll lie on his back while you use his arm as a pillow

🕷 i feel like he wouldn’t be a huge fan of that one because his arm starts to get really numb

🕷 he rests his chin on top of your head and when he knows you’re asleep, he pulls you closer

🕷 i personally think megumi’s bed always smells like fresh laundry

🕷 he’s really warm so he’s a great person to cuddle with if you’re cold

inumaki

🕷 ugh my love <3

🕷 he really likes cuddling, it’s honestly probably one of his favourite things to do with you

🕷 mainly because he can show you how much he cares and loves you without needing to speak

🕷 he likes to face you and listen to you talk about your day while your legs and arms are entangled

🕷 this is one of the few times he shows the bottom half of his face

🕷 inumaki can’t fall asleep unless you play with his hair

🕷 when he falls asleep, he hides his face in your chest while tightening his arms around you

🕷 he’s kind of a heavy sleeper and he definitely snores

🕷 not like obnoxiously, but quiet ones that are a little raspy

gojo

🕷 he constantly needs attention from you or else he’ll die

🕷 at least that’s what he said

🕷 gojo is clingy when you two cuddle and whines when you move around too much

🕷 it’s kind of funny/cute

🕷 he enjoys spooning for.. multiple reasons

🕷 but the main reason is that he likes knowing that you’re in his arms and aren’t going anywhere

🕷 it kind of looks like you’re wearing an oversized backpack

🕷 i feel like his hands are cold so many times you’re holding hands while cuddling

🕷 gojo plays with your hair a lot when you two cuddle, it’s therapeutic for the both of you

🕷 depending on how talkative he is, he’ll make conversation until one of you falls asleep

suguru

🕷 he’s not huge on cuddling but he does it because it makes you happy

🕷 eventually he does warm up to it though

🕷 when you two cuddle, he either lets his hair down or will put it up in a bun

🕷 you like it down so you can play with it and when you told him that, he didn’t really put it up anymore

🕷 suguru uses at most two pillows so if you use a lot of pillows, he thinks it’s a little unnecessary

🕷 i don’t know why anyone would voluntarily use only two pillows, i have like 6 or 7 but you do you i guess

🕷 i can imagine suguru being a stomach sleeper or a side sleeper

🕷 depending on what position is most comfortable for you is how you to cuddle

🕷 he also likes to face you when cuddling

🕷 suguru isn’t very affectionate in public but he gives you a few kisses here and there when you’re falling asleep or will push a few strand pieces of hair away from your face

🕷 he just likes seeing you in such a peaceful yet vulnerable state, it makes his chest warm knowing that you trust him despite you knowing about all the things he’s done

nanami

🕷 you have to put in the work for this man to eventually cave

🕷 the one thing that works to your advantage is that he’s pretty adamant on being home by 6 pm

🕷 nanami is a night reader so most of the time you’re cuddled up to his side watching him as he flips to next page

🕷 you sometimes try and read along, even if you’re not entirely sure what’s going on, but he’s a fast reader so you usually only get halfway down the page before he turns to the next one

🕷 when he comes home late at night and sees you’re still awake, more like fighting to but all the same, he just kind of fondly sighs at you

🕷 he tries to look annoyed but what gives it away is the subtle twitch of his lips upwards

🕷 nanami stays up a lot later than you, even though i can see him lowkey policing you to go to bed early

🕷 hypocrite

mahito

🕷 i don’t know if curses sleep, or if they even can

🕷 that doesn’t really stop mahito though

🕷 the first time you tried cuddling him, he just stared at you with a very confused look on his face

🕷 his existence is literally fueled by hatred so of course he didn’t know what cuddling was

🕷 let alone affection before meeting you

🕷 mahito was really fidgety in the beginning, mostly because he didn’t know what the fuck he was supposed to do 💀

🕷 but now it’s all he wants to do

🕷 he has a lot of free time, not having to work or worry about day-to-day stuff because he’s a curse, so he likes to spend it cuddling you

🕷 if you say you’re too busy and are somehow able to escape him, he’ll just stand right behind you and stare you down until it’s impossible to ignore

🕷 definitely lays on top of you and just buries his face in your chest/tiddies

🕷 i feel like this is one of the few times he’s actually quiet, usually spending this time to think or just listen to your heartbeat and breathing
