I'd love to see a one piece fic where we just see exagerated versions of their dynamic in a modern way, and let me explain this with Zoro.
First we'd see how he was left by his parents at the dojo, orphan Zoro getting foster care by Kuina's father, but i don't see him actually seeing that man as a father figure.
Now lets also say Kuina didn't die at a young age and rather stayed with him until she had just started middle school. At this point, if Zoro now, can call her a best friend, if they spent this long together, I think he would see her as a sibling and they would call each other sis and baby bro (to annoy him).
Again, Kuina doesn't die, but lets say she moves out of the country to other relatives, leaving Zoro alone when he was about to start middle school. So he one day has the 'got lost and never came back' incident during his first year. But everyone at the dojo thought he ran away bc Kuina left. So they didn't bother to look for him.
Lost and alone he manages to run into Mihawk, in this world, world champion. He knows Mihawk so he, even if he was ashamed, decided to ask him for directions to the nearest dojo.
Mihawk, upon seeing wet cat Zoro, decides to take care of him, as he asked where his parents were and Zoro told him he was an orphan.
Mihawk takes him under his wing and goes trough with the adoption process. At first Zoro doesn't really care as long as he has a place to train and stay but soon starts to see them as his actual family. By this time Perona was already adopted by Mihawk and is also and older sister for him.
Drac enrolls Zoro in school and gives him the training. They make him go to all the fancy schools Perona also goes/went to, cuz they don't trust Zoro's judgment to choose one.
And this also includes his university.
He decides to follow the same as Mihawk and in this uni he meets all his friends from different majors and also gets into the masculine judo club.
He doesn't know, but it's the fanciest uni in the country and Kuina is also there.
She didn't know about him, until she say him when he went to look for Perona (which she shares a few classes with) and instantly recognised his green hair.
She couldn't lie about being kindda hurt when she heard him call Perona older sis, but went on with life without saying anything.
Zoro took way longer to notice, bc it was Tashigi who pointed her out to him, when she was talking about this really tall girl she admires named Kuina and he was flabergasted.
Their encounter was emotional and awkward, but they decided to have a sparing session to test each other.
They used the unis campus for this, at night, and Kuina told him that she thought she was ready to challenge Mihawk and Zoro told her she still was no match for his old man, and Kuina went YOUR???

Andrew and Ashley are sitting quietly on a bench.
Andrew: How long do we have to sit here for?
Ashley: Until!
Andrew: I've got things to do.
Ashley: Hard cheese. Doesn't matter!
Andrew: But what are we actually doing?
Ashley: We're just... reminding people of the presence of Goth!
Random passerby: Wankers!
Ashley: See? This is important.

okay picture this, over the garden wall au but its goth siblings.
perona hates her new little brother and thinks hes an annoying mold spore. little sanji told little zoro early in the week that he saw a huge bobcat and while they're both walking to school zoro sprints into the woods bc he swears he saw a bear. and then of course wacky woodsy hijinks ensue.
originally was gonna write this out and post it on ao3 for halloween but college said no :(

i don't know how the timeline works in hades but imagine before hades 2, zag's talking to the shades waiting in the great hall about melinoe like "oh, my baby sister is so cute, I think she's coming back from her witch boarding school soon" and they assume she's a sweet adorable kid bc that's all he's been talking about
but then emerging from the river styx with blood dripping from her shoulders is this tween whose looks could kill you, and her face lights up when she sees her brother and launches herself at him and then fucking bites him
