i will never not laugh at how mad ace was when luffy had to start living with him lmaooo
Indeed, a sugary comfort piece of loving your s/o after their long day
note: old work and NOT rewritten (ie i may edit in the future)
NO BECAUSE I AM SOFT TONIGHT OKAY. Imagine this. Ace coming to bed all tired and grouchy. The day couldnât have gone worse. Heâd woken up late for his own divisions mission. Missed breakfast. It had been raining all day. The mission had taken longer than expected. Heâd stubbed his toe. The list could go on forever. The only thing keeping him from snapping was you waiting for him in bed. He hadnât even been able to wake you up with kisses this morning, only a rushed peck before he was dragged out by Marco. Now, with finally done debriefing everyone, he dragged himself to his room. And the moment he stepped through the door it felt like the weight on his shoulders and the band gripping his chest and the storm hovering over his head disappeared. With the lamp fire still flickering, there you lay, reading a book under the covers. And as soon as you heard the door creak open you looked up and smiled all big and warm, threw aside the book, and opened your arms wide in invitation. He didnât need to be told twice to catapult himself into your embrace. And once he was finally home, he released the breathe he was holding in all day. For a moment, you both just lay there, basking in each otherâs presence. You can tell itâs not been the best day for Ace. So, after a few moments of running your fingers though his hair you start to shift on top of him. He whines loudly in protest and tightens his arms around your waist but letâs you do as you please after you whisper âGimme a sec baby just wanna pamper you a little Im not going anywhereâ into his ear and press a kiss to his freckled cheek. Youâre now on top of him and heâs half-heartedly glaring at you for disturbing him. You roll your eyes and get started. You slowly move your hands up and down his body. All the way from his shoulders to his chest to his stomach and back up again. You caress every inch of him like youâre worshipping it. Slowly and softy you take your time. Every scar your fingers glide over you stop and slowly trace. And then move your face down to pepper light and airy kisses over it. You only stop after you have loved ever single bump blemish and scar on his body throughly. You glance up for a moment to check on him and are blessed with the sight of his face in a state of bliss. Dark hair spread across the pillow eyes resting shut and mouth slightly parted. With a hum of approval, you travel up and slowly press a kiss onto an eyelid and then move to do the same to the other. And then you do it again. And again. And again. Then, you gently cradle his face between your hands. When his eyelids start to flutter, you press a kiss to his nose and say âShhh love just relax let me take care of you okay.â You slowly glide your lips over to the first freckle your eye catches. Slowly you press your lips down and hold them there. After a moment, you move onto the next freckle. And the next. And the next. Your thumbs rub slow circles into his jaw, easing out the worry and stress. And after youâve trailed your fingers and lips over every inch of his body. Every scar on his shoulder wrist and waist. Every freckle on his face stomach and neck. You press a kiss to his lips, which had been neglected this entire time. Youâre caught by surprise when you feel him kissing you back, thinking he had been asleep some time ago. He loops his arms around you again, tighter than before, and buries his face into your hair. He inhales your shampoo and exhales a whispered âThank youâ so low that you almost miss it with how deep heâd burrowed in your head. You respond by pressing your lips to his shoulder briefly and respond a loving âAlways.â Ace falls asleep like that. Surrounded by your love. And the reminder that itâs okay to let others take care of him for a change. That he doesnât need to prove himself to be loved. That he doesnât necessarily need to give in order for something to be given back every time. That love might just actually be as easy as falling into your reassuring arms and sweet kisses and warm smile. That he deserves to be loved as much as anyone else.Â

Hi! Hope you have a nice day. If it's okay with you, may i request something for the charming firefly, ace?
Something like ace is vv oblivious to the reader's flirting, just thinking everything just a coincidence, like their seat on the dining table are next to each other, or when he's thirsty or hungry, the reader will always have a drink or snack/food ready. While actually it's happening because of the reader and their observations.
Sorry if it's too long, thanks for your time for reading this! (Completely okay if you're not ok with writing this, i just wanna say thank you)
a/n: wahh! thiss is soo cutee! hope u like thiss ><
Ace doesnât realize the readerâs affection is behind every perfect coincidenceâuntil one finally clicks.

It was always a coincidence.
At least, thatâs what Ace thought.
Every meal, every shared moment, every little âaccidentâ that placed you beside him was chalked up to fate, luck, or the universe just being weirdly nice to him that day.
Like this morning.
The Moby Dick rocked gently with the waves, and the crew had begun their daily scramble to the galley. Ace, still half-asleep with bedhead and one sandal barely on, made his way to the table. As usual, the crewâs chatter filled the room with the kind of loud, familial chaos only the Whitebeard Pirates could manage.
And, also as usual, the seat beside you was the only one open.
âHey,â Ace greeted, plopping down with a yawn and no suspicion.
âMorning,â you replied, already pushing a glass of orange juice in his direction without a second thought.
He blinked. âWhoa, you read my mind. I was just thinking I was thirsty.â
You smiled. âCoincidence, I guess.â
Ace grinned, utterly unaware of how long youâd been keeping track of the way he always reached for juice in the morning, never coffee, never water. Just juice. Always.
After a minute, he added, âAlso kinda hungry⊠I forgot to grab a roll or somethinâ.â
You wordlessly slid a small plate of warm bread and butter closer to him.
He gasped, delighted. âSeriously, youâre magic! You always have just what I need!â
You bit your lip to hide the fond curve of your smile. âLucky timing, huh?â
Lucky timing.
Thatâs what he called it the other day when he tripped coming down the deck stairs and nearly face-plantedâonly to find your hand catching him in time. Itâs what he called it when he accidentally left his hat on the upper deck and you âjust so happenedâ to come by with it a few minutes later.
You didnât mind. Not really.
It was kind of⊠endearing. In an Ace-way. He wasn't cold or carelessâhe just genuinely didnât see it. The thought that you might be observing him, remembering the things he liked, and subtly trying to show him how much you cared? It never even crossed his mind.
You watched as he messily buttered a piece of bread, crumbs falling on the table. He looked content, humming a tune and swinging his feet like a child in a giantâs chair. And when he caught you watching, he gave you a bright smileâone so open and warm it made your stomach flutter.
âYâknow,â he mumbled around a bite, âyouâre always around. Itâs kinda nice.â
âKinda?â you teased.
He nodded, mouth still full. âMm-hmm. Like, comfy.â
The word hit somewhere soft in your chest. He didnât even realize he was flirting back.
Later that day, a few of the crew were setting up for poker in the corner, but you were more interested in the commotion coming from the training area. You leaned against the railing, watching Ace spar with Marco. He was shirtless, flames licking at his fingertips as he dodged and laughed, clearly having fun.
Your gaze lingered on him. How could it not? He was strong, fast, alive with every movement.
And when he collapsed on the deck in dramatic defeatâMarco having pinned him with a blue-flamed armbarâhe wheezed out, âWater⊠I need waterâŠâ
By the time Marco released him, you were already at his side, bottle in hand.
âHoly crap,â Ace said between breaths. âYouâre, like⊠everywhere.â
âI told you,â you said casually, helping him sit up. âLucky timing.â
He chuckled, leaning back on his palms and chugging half the bottle. âAt this point, Iâm starting to think youâre my guardian angel or something.â
You raised a brow. âYou think your guardian angel would watch you get elbowed into the deck before offering water?â
Ace grinned. âGotta build character, right?â
You rolled your eyes, but your chest was warm with something fond and frustrating. How could he be so oblivious?
The truth was, you noticed everything about him. The way he only got grumpy when he was too hot or too tired. How he always tried to hide his hiccups when he laughed too hard. How he made sure the youngest crewmates never felt left out during meals, even if it meant giving them the last piece of meat on his plate.
You didnât just like him. You admired him.
So yeah, maybe you rearranged your seat every meal to end up next to him. Maybe you kept his favorite snacks in your jacket pockets during long shifts. Maybe you started carrying an extra bottle of waterâjust in case a certain fire fist decided to exhaust himself in a sparring match.
He never asked. You just⊠wanted to.
And he just⊠didnât notice.
It wasnât until one particular night, under the stars, that things finally shifted.
You were both sitting on the edge of the deck, feet dangling above the sea. Most of the crew was asleep or out of sight. Ace had a blanket wrapped around his shoulders, and you handed him a second one without saying a word.
âMan, itâs like you read my mind,â he said for the hundredth time.
You sighed softly. âMaybe your mind is just easy to read.â
He looked at you, puzzled. âHuh?â
You gave a small, nervous smile. âI mean⊠I always seem to know what you need, right? I guess I just pay attention.â
There was a pause. The kind of pause where your heart beats a little faster, wondering if maybe, finally, he might catch on.
Ace blinked. âOh. So youâve got like, observation haki or something?â
You stared at him.
Deadpan.
ââŠYeah. Sure. Letâs call it that.â
He beamed. âThatâs so cool!â
You dropped your face into your hands.
But thenâsomething changed in his tone.
ââŠWait.â
You peeked up through your fingers.
Aceâs smile was still there, but it was⊠slower. Thoughtful. You could practically see the gears turning in his head. Every juice, every meal, every seat, every snack.
And then, like someone lit a match under his brain, realization bloomed across his face.
ââŠWait.â
You watched the faintest red spread over his cheeks. He sat straighter. âAre youâ? Have you beenâ? This whole timeâ?â
You tilted your head, lips twitching. âYouâre cute when you put the puzzle together.â
He gawked. âSo it wasnât just coincidences?!â
You snorted. âAce, Iâve been flirting with you for weeks.â
He opened his mouth. Closed it. Opened it again.
And then he laughed. It was loud, a little embarrassed, but full of warmth.
âIâm such an idiot.â
âA lovable idiot,â you corrected, nudging his shoulder.
ââŠSo does this mean,â he said slowly, âyou like me? Like, like like?â
You raised a brow. âOnly if you like me back.â
He leaned in, pressing his forehead gently to yours with a shy, crooked grin. âWell, now that I know⊠Iâm definitely gonna start paying attention.â
You chuckled, nudging the bottle of water into his hand again. âStart with drinking water. Then weâll work our way up to romance.â
Ace laughed, and this time, he didnât call it luck.
Even if you're awkward or don't know how, lending a hand to try and comfort helps to share understanding

What is the meaning of life, anyway? CATS.
Ladies, would you rather walk over hot coals or go to the 7/11 serving butthole in these pants?

Rmabling, and skip it if you wanna,
but I gotta get this off my chest somehow. i am so exhausted and just came out of my first car accident with enough already on my plate. each time something goes well, something awful happens, and I just...give me a break to regenerate and blossom. we are thinking of a rent-a-car or entireprise(?) till then, but since it's the weekend, I guess we wait đ€·ââïž. any comments are still appreciated, funny ones more so. Is this adulthood đ«đ
P.S. I do want to add that I really do love this site and how happy it's made me is imaginable. Especially during those tiring moments.
