Luffy IS Selfish. By @ace-no-isha

Zolu toddler who has a fixation with things in sets of three because of Zoro's swords meeting the Sanpu toddler and is instantly obsessed with her because she has three eyes & it's the coolest thing he's ever seen in his 2 years of life. She in turn is drawn to his dark green hair & attempts to touch it because it looks like the leaves of the plants in her parents backyard garden.

Then as Zoro & Sanji do their usual bickering/fighting they are completely unaware that in the background their kids are swapping pacifiers and holding hands as they begin their slow burn friends to lovers story right under their noses. There won't be a generational rivalry anytime soon like they secretly hoped.

Found important lore on tiktok of all places

happy halloween! 🎃🍼👻

More headcanons for Zolu as parents:

- No way Luffy is ever gunna stop being a pirate so neither will Zoro & they take the kids with them most places.

-When they think it might be too dangerous (usually decided by Nami lol) they drop 'em off at Granny Dadan's with no warning whatsoever & just a vague note pinned to their clothes about coming back for them "later". Later meaning anywhere from a couple of days to weeks or even months. They always come back to them with new toys too so they love staying with Granny.

- They're almost always barefoot. Luffy completely understands why they hate shoes, but Zoro tries to at least make em wear sandals when the weather is too cold or too hot. They're always losing em though.

- I think they'd have 2 kids at the most. Zoro cut em off at the 2nd because he's the one who primarily takes care of them as babies & he's over diapers! It's like that episode of SpongeBob when they take care of the clam.

- Speaking of Zoro, he's definitely the primary parent & having children brings out a different side to him. The crew nickname him "Mama Bear" because in his own way he's very careful with them & yes he does have a strange thing about stairs.

- Finally acknowledging his habit of getting lost he actually keeps the kids strapped to him majority of the time until they get old enough to follow him like baby ducks. This is very cute, but slightly concerning as he doesn't let them down even during a battle. Even foes have scolded him for this lmao.

- He puts a sword in their hands as early as possible & is super excited to have "students".

-He's never lost track of the kids, but has gotten lost WITH them a bunch of times. They think it's fun though so no skin off his back. Fortunately they didn't inherit his sense of direction & will lead them back once old enough.

-On the other hand, Luffy lost them once & it freaked him the fuck out. After that, he's noticeably more serious when left alone with them. He's even put those child leashes on them which they do not appreciate.

-Luffy likes to juggle his kids & toss them around like balls. He throws them up a lot higher than most people (even Zoro at times) are comfortable with, but they absolutely love being manhandled by him.

- He lets them mess with his stretchy body whenever they want & likes to go into balloon form so they can bounce on his tummy.

- They're the only ones he lets sit in his special seat with him on the Sunny's figurehead.

-They're also the only ones who can steal food from his plate & not piss him off. It's like a game to see how much they can take before they get caught.

- You might think these kids are completely unsupervised, but Zoro & Luffy are always using observation haki to keep an eye on them. If they're running around with blades & someone is about to get stabbed with a flying knife you can be assured Luffy's hand is stretching to stop it just in time. Or he's keeping them from falling off a ledge they get too close to. Or Zoro's attack hits an animal getting ready to pounce on them after they've accidentally ticked it off. Don't worry about them. They're the safest kids in the world.

-Zoro & Luffy don't really discipline or have restrictions for them at all. Luffy grew up in the woods & Zoro has always been feral so they don't understand why it wouldn't be ok for kids to be doing dangerous things. You want to run around with scissors? Cool. You want to play with these matches? Have at it kids. You want to go look for a local giant bear on this new island? Sweet, let's all go together!

- Whenever they do have to be strict it's almost always Zoro & very rarely. Luffy almost never gets them in trouble, but when he does you know it's serious because he never gets angry at them.

-These kids are powerhouses too. Stronger than any of their friends kids & akin to Ace when he was a child. Fearless too so they get themselves into sticky situations all the time.

- I think they have 1 girl & new people are always mistaking her for a boy because of how her dads dress her & the fact that she's a total tomboy. "I'm a girl! " is practically her catchphrase. Sanji is her favorite of her dads friends because he is the first person to know she was a girl from the get go & that made her really happy.

- Possibly the only kids in the world who never complain about nap time despite being super hyper. Zoro likes to be on their schedule so the 3 of them tend to just huddle together when it's time as Luffy watches over them. They'll sleep anywhere too! Sometimes Luffy feels left out so he'll join them & wrap his stretchy arms around everyone while they sleep.

-Zoro keeps his last name, but the kids get Luffy's. When they're old enough to realize their name is Monkey they go through a phase where they only want to act like literal monkeys. Luffy thinks this is hilarious & joins them on & off. They went through so many bananas during this time. Zoro is a patient man.

- They bathe as much as their fathers do which is not as often as they should. If Nami is traveling with them she makes them bathe every day, but most of the time they're kinda dirty & sticky tbh. Their daughter eventually starts caring more about being clean, but their son is fine with a layer of dirt on him.

- They often ride their dads' shoulders when exploring a new island so they don't get tired. Chicken Fights are frequent & very serious.

-Lastly, they teach them to swim very young & really well. Since Luffy is a DF fruit user they don't want to risk their lives if they ever fall in & only he is around. Eventually they're so good they are even able to fish out their dad together when he falls in himself. They're like little fishes.

little Nalu soulmate blurb I wrote and didn’t bother to check over

———

Lucy is ten when the mark appears, years after her mother’s passing.

It’s a small pink flame, surrounded by stars, resting just above where she thinks her heart is.

Lucy’s father is disappointed at the sight, and immediately ushers her out to report to his business partners that she does not share any of their children’s soul marks.

He may be disappointed, but it’s the first sign she’s ever gotten that there’s someone out there for her, after years of rotting away behind the locked doors of her mansion.

Lucy dives into every book in her family’s library on soulmates, from educational non-fiction to fantasy romances.

Soulmates, Lucy decides, are the greatest thing this world has to offer.

From then on, Lucy spends most of her time daydreaming about who her soulmate could be.

A brave knight, who comes to sweep her off her feet to steal her away from her father? Or a stunning princess, who grabs her hand and pulls Lucy into a beautiful fantasy land?

Whoever they are, Lucy knows they will save her. They have to.

For the rest of her childhood—and far into her teenage years—Lucy daydreams about her mysterious soulmate.

During fancy parties where Lucy is forced to stand at her father’s side while he talks nonsense to other powerful men, she dreams of her Knight breaking through the doors and pulling her away. She dreams of her Princess grabbing her hand and pulling Lucy into a dance that makes her forget all her worries.

But no knight or princess ever comes, and suddenly it’s too late.

Lucy is seventeen with her mother’s keys and dreams of being a wizard, when she overhears her father arranging her marriage to a man she’s never even met.

Lucy can’t wait any longer, she has to get out now.

So she leaves, running away into the night with nothing but a handful of cash and a few pairs of clothes—and her mother’s keys, of course.

Then, Lucy meets him.

A pink-haired weirdo, who drains half her savings and is apparently looking for a dragon with his talking cat.

Lucy doesn’t know exactly what to make of such a man, so she brushes the meeting off and follows the wizard Salamander onto his boat, hoping to leech off of him long enough to join Fairy Tail.

And then the man—Natsu—from earlier is falling onto the boat, with his cat who can apparently talk and fly.

Lucy is less than impressed when he immediately eats wood, and she has to pull out Aquarius to save both of their butts, wrecking half of Hargeon’s port in the process.

By the end of it, Lucy is tired, wet, and broke. Not only that, but Salamander is still, somehow, fighting.

Lucy is ready to scream, but Natsu is tearing his coat off, revealing his arms.

More importantly, revealing what is on his arms.

On one shoulder, the mark of Fairy Tail is proudly displayed, a blazing red color.

On the other, sits her soulmark. A pink flame surrounded by shining stars.

Natsu Dragneel is Salamander, a wizard of Fairy Tail, and her one and only soulmate.

She nearly passes out at the revelation, and then nearly passes out again when Natsu, somehow, eats fire.

His weird cat kindly informs her he’s the son of a dragon, like he wasn’t already impossible enough.

Then, the fake Salamander is out cold on the ground, and the royal military is chasing after them for drowning the port—hey, it’s a port, what did they expect—Natsu is grabbing her hand.

Her soulmate is grabbing her hand, dragging her back to his guild.

Natsu is far from what she expected, but, she thinks with a smile on her face, he might not be so bad.

dads doing their best

harder better faster strong world

genuinely one of my favourite bits from one piece

the people who ship fiveya, Kliego, horrance, and alluther are shipping fictional characters in fictional settings. Fans are allowed to make their own headcanon and interpret the source material as they see fit. Fans also have the freedom to ignore canon completely and ship the fictional characters they want to ship

To me, the view that supporting or liking fictional incest normalizes incest in real life does not add up

TUA’s a violent show. Does that mean supporting a violent show also normalizes violence in real life? Does it make viewers wake up one day, randomly throw knives or take people out with rifles? Does it make real life pre teens amassing high body counts ok?
