beanie, dear, im still thinking about your fairytale au bc i love love love the notion of artist/art and usopp's "he is not in love with his sanji. but maybe this one. maybe this one is someone he can fall in love with" and sanji just is *his* sanji but differently, and sanji calling it fate, im so so weak for this, the potential of soulmates without the pressure of world dedicating soulmates, usopp setting sanji free through sheer force of imagination and love bc he loves his stories and he loves the lost prince in his stories and he deserves a happy ending, and sanji does too, and sanji's "let me have this" and maybe, probably, certainly they have known each other their whole life, have always been with each other in their hearts bc they are meant to be, and im so happily insane over this au, so thank you for planting this into my head ❤️❤️❤️
I'm so insane about it too and I am so so so glad you liked it this much!!! I was in the middle of work and somehow that idea appeared in my mind out of nowhere- Loving my brain a lot after that tbh.
This was supposed to be more of an "artist that creates sculpture/character and they come to life and fall in love" type of thing. But I think the uncertainty of it all and not knowing exactly whether Usopp made Sanji or not, but Sanji wanting to believe he did because he trusts Usopp with his own life and fate and likes to think their hearts were linked from the start... It's just beautiful. Maybe it's a mix of both things, y'know, I haven't thought that much about it.
But maybe Usopp had recurring dreams about Sanji, when he was a kid. About actual Sanji and future Sanji. And he just... Started drawing and writing and fell in love with the whole idea of him. It's sort of ridiculous and he never told anyone, but I'm pretty sure Usopp was too invested in Sanji and fell in love with him. But the dreams were always so sad and heartbreaking he wanted to give him a happy ending, so he wrote about his sister helping him escape and the guy finding another home, and suddenly the dreams started to change into something brighter and better and happier.
So maybe they were linked by heart and that's why Usopp dreamt about him, but also, maybe, Usopp had the power to change Sanji's story just by writing it down somehow. It'd also be cute if Sanji had this superhero in his mind ever since he was a kid (Sogeking) because he dreamt constantly about him saving him and once Enies Lobby happens, Sanji has to stop for a moment a process that his hero is Usopp.
