I saw you reblog a comic of present luffy and post Skypea luffy switching places, which is a super cute idea. BUT TO MAKE IT ANGSTY push the timeline up and have sick/dying pirate king luffy enjoying his epilogue life switch with post thriller bark luffy. Just when the crew has a convo about luffy pushing his body too much...
anon when i catch you anon when i catch you WHEN I CATCH YOU ANON
Urgh, I don't even want to think about that—it's too cruel. The Straw Hats learning that Luffy is as mortal as anyone, and that even kings and gods fall at some point in time. What can they do to prevent the inevitable?
Luffy has pushed his body through hell time and time again, not just because of his dream, but for his crew. I mean, Luffy vs Lucci was on full display for all of them to see—the limits Luffy surpasses in order to go home with them, breaking and bleeding and bruising. And the funny part of that is that he would do it again. In every timeline. In every reincarnation, in every life they find each other again. To Luffy, who thinks being alone is worse than being hurt, it's a small price to pay for family.
What're ur fav op fics?
I am suffering because I always forget to bookmark what I read—it's actually joever, and I'll definitely miss some because of my goldfish memory, but these are the ones I found.

Hi!! Would it be possible to get some hints on what else you have cooking 👀👀
Oh my god, I just realized it's been over two months since Ch. 1. Please, university is kicking my ASS 😭 Without further ado -
Chapter 2 without spoilers:
strawhat pirates, but they platonically cuddle, crowding onto this one picnic blanket with the sun on their faces - luffy is bigspooning all of them.
strawhat pirates, but they hold hands and loop arms when they're out and about, tugging each other along when they see something cool in the windows of shops.
strawhat pirates, but they play with each other's hair and steal each other's clothes and laugh at each other's dumb antics like theyre any better
strawhat pirates, but love is easy.
*knocks ur door clean off its hinges* WE CAN DRAW YOUR SHIT RIGHT????? WE'RE ALLOWED TO DRAW UR SHIT RIGHT⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️
I WOULD BE SO INCREDIBLY HONOURED AIBDJRBDIDBEIDBWWIJDIDUEU I LOVE UR ART SO DEARLY
Your art is amazing!! Zoro's part was my fav bc yeah he's lost physically (as always) and metaphorically with Luffy gone. Luffy was his sun and guiding light frfr 😭
whoever u r anon, i hope both sides of your pillow are cold 😎 thank you!!!
In the animanga and live action, when Zoro gets lost, he always finds his way to Luffy because if not the sun, Luffy is his north star. IT IS AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE ZOLU AGENDA FUCK YEAH
and now Luffy's gone and Zoro can't find his way home 😈 skill issue get good kid L
The gear 5 tag on ylts 👀👀👀. I'm sooo excited to see your take on it! Right now my theory is that Luffy is like a half formed sun god that unwittingly disappeared, maybe bc he fulfilled joyboy's promise? Maybe he returned through sheer will alone but always feels the call to return to the sky 😭. Either way, the strawhats are going to be so crazy protective of their baby captain no matter what!!
👀👀👀 My lips are sealed.
I'm so obsessed with the idea of trying-to-be-subtle-but-failing protective clingy Straw Hats. THAT'S MY FOUND FAMILY RIGHT THERE! THAT'S MY FAVOURITE TROPE RIGHT THERE!
Posting these here now that they're all done :) Wanted to do some drawings for the short version of my zolu playlist, and was inspired by ao to make them postcard-sized. Did two versions of the last song since there were an uneven number of songs.
(Not organized sequentially / by timeline, just organized to make the playlist nice to listen to)
Ugh your Sanji gets me so teary eyed 😭. He's always been lower of my strawhat list bc of his horrible pervert gag, tho wci did bump him up a lot. But fics like yours just really encapsulate some of his best traits: caring, loyal to a fault, and slowly discovering his self worth 😭. AND HES SO SOFT FOR LUFFY.
"Sanji's hands squirm inside his pockets, fidgeting for the lighter he has never touched since that day Luffy decided to go on ahead.
(He’s not far; he’s waiting for them.)"
This kills me for many reasons but...can you imagine how long it probably took Sanji to get used to not making a feast practically everyday just for one person?? Or that whenever he discovers a new recipe he thinks about whether Luffy would like it (the answer is always yes). I wonder if there was ever a tinge of regret that he didn't stay just one more minute. AHH I want them to adventure together forever so chopper better get his butt in gear 😭. Tho Luffy 1000% needs to be the first one to go so maybe just give him a few more years bc I constantly live in fear of smth like One Piece: Next Generations happening. Anyways sorry for the long ramblings but ur fics are just so heart wrenching sweet 😭
Alabasta, Enies Lobby, and Whole Cake Island Sanji is peak. Thriller bark to Dressrosa Sanji—THAT'S HIM OFFICER 🫵 That version of him does not exist to me. I wish Oda toned the pervert/nosebleed gag down. He deserves better.
SANJI IS LITERALLY SO SOFT FOR LUFFY THOUGH—they captured it so well in the live action, I was screaming the whole time they had interactions. The Luffy & Sanji dynamic is too good; a glutton and his cook.
Can you imagine him without Luffy? Sanji makes extra portions. He still has a lock on the fridge. When he's cooking, he expects to hear the flop of sandals at any moment. He sleeps through the night without being woken. It's old habits and new silence—the way parents return home, expecting loud noise and greetings and trouble, even if their kids moved out years ago.
I WAS TALKING ABOUT OP: NEXT GENS JUST RECENTLY. I do not want a Monkey D. Buffy, please. I don't want Luffy to get a dad hair cut. I am begging you, Oda.
Don't apologize for the ramblings! It was very fun to read as well as respond to. Thanks for your support! <3
I LOVE YOUR WORKS!! This has been really on my mind after reading young like the sea: how would Ace react in Sabo's place? Like, I have a feeling that Sabo prob spent most if not all that time looking for Luffy. Do you think Ace would do the same or try to move on?
Thank you so much for reading! So happy you enjoyed :D
Hmm... urgh, this is hurting my brain, but I really like the question, so I'm going to try to translate my thoughts into coherent sentences. I'm thinking of two scenarios.
In a "Portgas D. Ace lives" scenario, Ace and Sabo would at least have each other - and while they would never stop looking for their little brother, they would act as each other's pillar. If one of them strayed too far, the other could yank them back. This would be parallel to how their lives were back on Dawn Island when it was only them two. The two of them before Luffy, and they would absolutely despise it. They spent so much time as 2/3 and so little as 3/3.
The scenario of Ace being in Sabo's position is a bit tricky. In Sabo's situation, he failed to be there for both of his brothers (and I can't wait to write about his part in YLTS). With Ace, although he did promise Sabo to look after Luffy in his place, Ace and Luffy both agreed that they have their own adventures. I can't say much more due to spoilers, but let's say Ace would have a milder reaction compared to Sabo. Luffy's King, and Ace has seen him tear through hell itself and make it out alive firsthand. Ace would look for him - that's a given, but his faith in his return would be unwavering. When you don't know what to do, if you're lost or unsure, bet on Luffy.
I spent like an hour thinking about how to respond to this, and I might have gone off track, but I hope I answered your question!

(lusan opening… you will always be my fav…)
17 old Luffy meets Straw Hats from the present
(Luffy from the arc after 'skypiea' but before 'water seven')
I'm crying, screaming, throwing up your fics are absolutely incredible!! I can't get enough of stories where Luffy dies first, but him just straight up disappearing with no clues or answers is a new level of pain (your "i hope they never find him" tag kills me 😭. I'm so happy he returns but I can't help imagining the strawhats spending their whole lives with that little bit of hope that Luffy will achieve the impossible and return to them again. Then as each one of them reaches the end of their long lives, about to close their eyes for the last time, they swear they can hear a bright laugh and feel warm rays of sunlight soothing their pain 😭😭😭
If you haven't already read this, I think you'd love this comic:

aaaa thank you so much! death is too permanent so i just needed the strawhats to have a little taste *unmajors your character death* but HALF OF ME WANTS THEM TO FIND HIM AND THE OTHER 😈
also the 2nd half of that paragraph WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT please i cant take it - can you imagine them, close to death, but the only thing they feel is relief? because at long last, they will see him again? lets stop here before i burst into tears
I JUST FINISHED READING THAT AND OH MY GOD - THIS IS TOO CRUEL thank u for recommending that - im wailing weeping banging my fist on the floor on my knees ITS JOEVER HES GONE i liked how it was a good mix of comedy and angst, rather than only the latter.
again, thank you so much for reading! your support makes me super happy and i cant stop smiling!!! <3
Just finished your fic and this was the part a tear deadass slipped down my face
And it's not the grief that’s killing him.
Chopper's voice goes quiet in the way snow falls upon snow as he says, "I don’t even know if I’ll ever see him again.”
It’s the uncertainty of not knowing if it’s time to move on.
BECAUSE THEYRE WAITING FOR HIM!!! HE HAS TO COME HOME RIGHT?? it'll be 20 damn years til he gets reborn and when i actually think about it, it's such a long long time to wait for someone, and now I'm dying to know how the strawhats have gotten through 20 years. they're still waiting to welcome him home and now i want to jump off a cliff.
ANYWAY ITS JUST PAIN AND SUFFERING WHEN I THINK ABOUT IT OUHJSFGBJHSDKJH (but thank you so much for the fic it was amazing and i would do anything for it, i would marry your fic if i could)
THATS WHAT IM SAYING! 20 YEARS - 2 WORDS, 3 SYLLABLES, BUT FOREVER. WHY
I could just imagine how many happy memories they could have made if they were together for those 20 years. Instead, theyre separated, missing their sun, and losing hope. This is horrible - we were stolen from.
Thank you for reading! Your words mean so much to me, and I'll try my best for the future chapters!!!
What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.

THE WAY THIS POPPED UP ON MY TIKTOK FYP OUGHHHHH IM ILL
WHY DID U SEND THAT TO ME NOW IM SAD AHAJDBJDBDIDHEI AAAAAAAAAA
HES THEIR EVERYTHING - THEIR EVERYTHING
make sure they never see him again 😈
hi yes hello i read your fic young like the sea today AND I HAVE NOT STOPPED THINK ABOUT IT EVER SINCE !!!!
zoro’s part made me especially sad gods i dont think ill ever get over it.
AND THAT TOWARDS THE END ???
The world goes on. They fight every second of their life not to, but even the strongest souls wane from the erosion of time.
It takes ten years for their log pose to become something they look at, but not something they see, like looking at your watch but not registering the time.
Maybe they accepted he was gone long before they realized.
KILLED MEEEEE
ill be rotating this fic in my mind gor the next few days but thank you for writing it
aaaa omg reading this made me so giddy 😳 thank u so much for reading!!!
zoros part was one of my favourites to write! it was also one of the saddest 😭 poor guy 😈 tho skill issue much?
im also really proud of that excerpt so im super glad u liked it!!! i just love (creating) that feeling of the lack of closure - the never-knowing if its time to move on or if theres still hope.
thank u so much for reading as well as for your support - it means the world to me!
the art style of this movie was hard to watch but they really captured OG Luffy’s scrunglyness with this scene
There’s no fuckin way Thriller Bark healed right after Saboady. Fighting constantly for 2 years without a genuine doctor around? Zoro has chronic pain and in this essay I will
