♡ Nightmares
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
✎ w/ Luffy, Ace, Sabo ✎ ANGST ✎ Synopsis: he wakes up from a nightmare about you
Tumblr media
♡ Luffy Luffy jolted awake, finding himself in a dark room with sweat-soaked blankets. His heart beat was erratic as he looked around, picturing your tear streaked cheeks and scared, pleading eyes. Your cabin. He throws his blankets off and stumbles out of his hammock, paying no mind to the complaints of others and making a beeline for the door. The cold air bites his cheeks and suddenly the sheet of sweat covering his body is like ice, but he hurries on. He pauses when he gets to your door, placing his hand on the knob and bracing himself, not completely convincing himself he'll find your sleeping form when he opens it. Inhaling the icy air in a quick breath, Luffy opens the door and a small rectangle of light falls on the sleeping forms of his crew. His eyes immediately find your body, knee poking out of the covers and hair spread across your pillow like a web. Slowly, Luffy makes his way to your bedside, pulling the covers back slightly and slipping in beside you. You move towards his warmth and he accepts you into his arms and sweeps his hands tenderly over your back, hands slipping beneath your shirt to press the pads of his fingers against your warm skin. He closes his eyes and sighs against the crown of your head, heart slowing and body falling weak with exhaustion.
♡ Ace Ace jolted awake, looking around at the dark room lit only by rays of dim moonlight through the windows. He's in his cabin. Where are you?Whipping his head to the side where you had fallen asleep the night before, he finds a pile of blankets messily pushed off him. Where are you? His heart spikes in his chest and his stomach drops, he thinks he might puke. Where are you?! He shoots to his knees, frantically looking around the dark room in vain, he grabs at the sheets under him in frustration, breath getting caught in his throat as a million idea of what could be happening to you swim through his head. The sheets shuffle, he freezes. He grabs at the pile of blankets and pulls at them, locating your sleeping form which he'd accidentally covered when pushing the sweat-soaked sheets off his body. The moonlight outlined your silhouette and Ace felt like he'd been splashed with cold water, the sweat on his forehead turning icy in the cold room. He sits like this for awhile, watching your chest rise and fall with your breath, watching your eyes twitch. Ace wants to reach out and touch you as if you were a jewel-encrusted display at a museum, but he's afraid if he lays a finger on you you'll shatter and be lost in the sheets. You turn over and throw your hand over to where he'd be sleeping, clutching at empty air, and Ace finally moves. Reaching his hand down ever so slowly, so carefully, he lays his fingertips on your hand like he's trying not to break a surface of water. He runs his fingers up your arm, slowly, pressing more of his hand to your skin, feeling the warmth against his own. Ace slides his feet back under the covers and pulls them up to his waist, he takes you by the waist and pulls you flush against him, inhaling the scent of your hair.
He stares at the wall and listens to the sound of your breath, he swears he can feel your heart beat against his. ♡ Sabo Sabo sits panting among messed sheets, chest heaving up and down as your scream echoes through the corridors in his mind. Sweat beads his skin and he raises a hand to push his hair back. His feet appear out from under the covers and upon feeling the cold floor Sabo hunches and lets his mind fall into place. He searches through the anxiety and anger, fear and confusion, and finds that his body is craving you. Like when you get the gnawing idea you forgot something at home, he has the gnawing idea he'll search for you and find nothing but anguish. He grabs the glass of water on his nightstand, gulping it in seconds as stray streams run down his throat. Setting the glass down and throwing on his jacket and shoes, he hurries out the door. Having a mission, you were supposed to get back at one-thirty and it's almost two-thirty, you should be in your room. Sabo nearly runs down the hall, almost running into someone rounding a corner, and knocks quickly on your door. His heart pounds against his ribcage and he feels like his head is foggy with worries, what will he do if you don't open up? You should be back, why wouldn't you be back? Where are you? What if-- the door opens and you peer up the blond man. His eyes are bloodshot and wide with fear, face flushed and sick-looking. Before you can even comprehend what's happening, Sabo pushes you back through the door and pushes it shut behind, shoving his lips against yours as he guides you further into the small room. You put your hands up on his chest and push him back gently, confused and worried. Asking him what's wrong, he stutters out, "I- I- You were- You-" and you wrap your arms around him, cradling the back of his head with one hand as he hurries his head in your neck. He starts taking deep breaths, clinging to you. After a few moments, you feel his body lose some tension and he lets out a shuddering breath. "I'm sorry, I just got worried you weren't back...", he says sheepishly, panic being replaced by embarrassment. You think it's sweet, but you hate how worked up he was and how scared he looked "Sleep here tonight," you say quietly and he relaxes more against you, raising his head and pressing his lips against your forehead.

♡ When he likes you
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
✎ w/ Zoro, Law, Kidd (x reader) ✎ FLUFF + angst (mostly in law's) + a touch of suggestion ✎ Synopsis: how he acts when he likes you ✎ AN: suggestion of fem!reader in Kidd's
Tumblr media
♡ Zoro ♥ He has no idea what to do, you just showed up and now you're on his mind every hour, yes you're attractive, yes you're laugh is kind of nice to hear, yes he wants to make you smile, but why? what does it mean?
♥ It's not like he's experienced this kind of love or romance anywhere and most likely hasn't consumed media to explain anything about it, so he's running on instincts
♥ When he's working out and his mind falls idle, you pop up, what were you laughing about with Nami and Chopper earlier? He starts another set and gets distracted halfway through, losing count but continuing to wonder of every time you've been alone together ♥ Zoro loves watching you, watching the way you do everything, the way you laugh, smile, run, fight, argue, talk, read, he could watch you read for hours ♥ He enjoys your company-- when finished with his afternoon workout, coming down from the crows nest to seek you out. He'll sit in whatever room you're in and sharpen his swords, nap, ask about what the plans are
♥ When the crew is out and about Zoro is hovering near you, walking with you if you're alone or trailing behind you like a bodyguard
♥ If you workout together he's secretly ecstatic and is eager to help with anything, he'll spot you with weights and help correct your form, when you're done he'll tell you how good you did and what you two can do next time
♥ He's not touchy but he's not avoidant, if you stumble or fall he'll immediately catch you by your arm or waist, thinking nothing of it, he'll place his hand on your lower back to guide you through a crowd, he'll sit next to you with your legs touching, you can start a game of footsie under the table with him but be warned he'll get competitive
♥ When you've had enough of everyone and sneak out of the room, Zoro is following behind you with a jug of sake asking what you're going to do-- he's perfect to just sit by the railing with and watch the sunset or the stars, but he might get distracted by another view
♥ He serves you food first, if you're reaching for something he'll put a heaping helping of it on your plate, he'll sneak a few bites though, and if he thinks you'll like something he remembers it and mentions it to you when you talk next, he remembers a lot of things for you ♥ He's just really unaware of how things can come off, bringing you up in every conversation ♥ Things often remind him of you-- those flowers are the same color as your eyes, that long grass is long and lush like your eyelashes, the sounds of the birds is so calming and pleasant like your voice, that boat would make you uneasy, you'd like that berry tart after your lunch, clouds are moving in, are you getting ready for rain?
Tumblr media
♡ Law
♥ He's is not one to fall for just looks so you'd have to have some sort of relationship at first, you would talk and work together, devising strategies and shit-talking the other members of the alliance, but you get too close
♥ Law is at once looking at it from a logic point of view, he can't have feelings for a member of his crew, he can't have feelings for someone right now at all, and you're so sweet and he's so... it wouldn't work even if he wanted it to ♥ So many secret glances, and when you're talking together it's like he's trying to read your soul with his eyes-- every single look of his has a hidden intention that he can't act on, that he won't let himself act on ♥ You and Penguin had been researching something together all day, spending the whole day together, and whenever Law sees the two of you pass he only shoots a quick hard glance, but he's wondering what would happen if he went up and pulled you away into one of the various rooms
♥ You're going over a set of documents together because you're the only other person who knows this subject, and Laws fingers are aching to touch you, his breathy inhales and exhales of frustration are not from the documents contents, but from his desires
♥ He won't let himself act on his feelings towards you, won't entertain the idea of you and him being anything, but loathes the idea of you and anyone else
♥ He has major abandonment issues, his hearts gonna skip a beat every time he thinks he spots signs of you having feelings for someone-- it makes him physically sick to imagine losing you so much so to the point he decides for his own wellbeing to push you away
♥ So he's a dick, a cold, unfeeling, dickhead- but only to you. He's a level of cold with everyone but sometimes even the crew can sense spite in his words or hidden feelings in his harsh orders for you, speaking to you with such callousness or nothing at all, sending you to do chores and missions away from him, you'd think he doesn't even want you on his crew ♥ You have to take the first step and confront him, expressing that you're hurt and angry and feel disrespected, and he'll just stand there taking in the fact he's been an absolute monster and quietly, shamefully apologize ♥ You really gotta search in that boy and see that there's something hidden under all those rude interactions, see the way that he looks at you now with such fear and guilt, the way his fingers curl and uncurl at his sides ♥ But he's a bitchhh and leaves you with that to go sulk over his actions
♥ He mellows out after that and when he goes to push you away again, he remembers how you felt and his tone falls soft, he stops sending you away and tries to hold himself accountable in moments
♥ You're so close to being how you were in the beginning, but you know there's something there keeping you from it like a shield, Law feels it, he knows you can't go back, he knows he can't be friends with you, his longing looks turn sadder and harder, it's like he's locked himself in a room with a drug and only allows himself sniffs from afar
Tumblr media
♡ Kidd ♥ Kidd is a little angry perv who knows that he finds you attractive as well as certain aspects of your personality ♥ He's hitting on you from the beginning, eyeing you when you walking near him, but not like creepy he's charming and funny with it ♥ He'll joke with you and pull you into conversations with the crew just casually-- "what do you think y/n?", /y/n do you like ___?" ♥ You make him smile significantly more, and more sweet and admiring than crazed and maniacal, Killer will notice and even though he can't see his face Kidd feels the deadpan expression he gets ♥ He watches you like a kid watches a butterfly outside a classroom window, getting distracted as you scamper by, watching you from the ship as you load boxes, while the rest of the group is talking you can look over and it's just a tad weird and intimidating the way he's staring
♥ He's protective like Zoro but more boldly controlling, if he loses sight of you he's start asking if anyones seen you and he'll gradually start whining until he makes the crew start looking for you, finding you and scolding you for running off and not being with your captain! Says you need to be near him in case something happens, he literally throws a tantrum
♥ And you can't run off anymore cause Kid will drag you back by the collar of your shirt
♥ However, he wants you to like him, and he's not mean to you at all, the crew has mentioned to each other that he's noticeably nicer to you, or just nice ♥ He insists on giving you food when you've finished your first serving, shoveling more than you probably could eat onto your plate, buying you snacks and giving you extra of anything before the rest of the crew
♥ You just become best friends, except Kidd usually finds a way to make it just the two of you when you're hanging out, not just because he comes to find you especially when you're alone, and you get to the point where you can spend hours together if you have the time
♥ All the while he's still calling you babe, princess, and probably a rather derogatory adaptation of y/n, and flirting with you like you're dating. He just doesn't push it, when he asks you out you think he's just flirting and joking, and he's not convinced you see something with him
♥ He wants something with you, he's attracted to you and all and he really wants you, but he wants something after the act too and he doesn't know if you feel the same-- so he's testing the waters
♥ The closer you get the touchier he gets, it not like he has a crowd to guide you through as most people go out of their way to steer clear of Kidd and the crew's path, but he throws himself down next to you on the couch and stretches himself across it, he sits next to you at a pub wit his arm draped over the back of your chair, he pulls you onto his lap when drunk

♡ Some time together
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
♥ Roronoa Zoro x reader ✎ FLUFF ✎ Synopsis: just a short fluffy zoro thing ✎ WC: 1k
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's a beautiful day, the birds call to each other over the ship, deep blue waves crash against the sides, the sky is spotless. You stare wistfully at the picturesque scene the porthole creates. The hammock you and your boyfriend share sways with the boat and you tighten your grip on his hand each time you feel yourself begin to tip-- and each time, he smirks. You knew he wouldn't let you fall, but it really wasn't up to him, and the way the hammock turned sometimes you felt you were about to crash to the floor if you made any larger movements. "What are you doing tomorrow?" Snapped out of your thoughts, you peered up at the swordsman.
"What do you mean?" you ask. Normally you don't exactly plan to do the things you and the crew get up to. "Nami told me there's a market in the port, gave me a list. What's your job?" Zoro replies, mumbling the last parts in annoyance. "Oh," you say, glancing from the shiny gold pieces dangling from Zoro's ears, to the small potted plant you had picked up in a previous port-side town that now sits on the table. Giggling, you say to him, "I didn't get assigned something to do tomorrow, but Nami did tell me there was a market if I wanted to go get anything." "What?! Do you think she told Sanji or Usopp to do anything?!" He asks, obviously annoyed. "I don't know," you reply, "but I can go with you." It sounds nice actually, maybe it'll be just you and him, a date. "No, it's fine I don't need any help," Zoro says-- you could be offended by how he put this, but you know he just doesn't like unnecessary help and it's the only reason that crosses his mind of why you'd want to go. It's not romantic, you're running an errand that could literally be done by anyone else, he could attempt to help Franky and Usopp build another contraption, or explore the town with you and Luffy, let Sanji get the groceries! He adjusts his hand and sweeps his thumb across your knuckles, letting out a huff of frustration. "What if I just want to spend time with you?" you say, sliding the hand Zoro's not holding, over his bicep and givng it an affectionate squeeze. You press your lips to his warm skin, pulling away and looking up at the swordsman you see he's turned as red as Luffy's shirt.  "We- I-... We'd just be getting groceries. I-it's not fun o-or romantic.. or.. anything..." he mumbles.
You really want to laugh, really, really want to, but you don't. You feel your heart swell and it feels like it's going to burst out. Zoro's face is still bright red but now your cheeks start to flood with color too. Leaning up, you capture Zoro's lips in a sweet kiss and feel his free arm come up to steady you as the hammock still sways, placing his hand firmly on your waist. You're just pulling away when a large wave rushes under the boat, rocking the hammock. You fall against Zoro, though it went unnoticed as he'd already pulled you against him when he felt the hammock jerk.  "Be careful," Zoro mumbles, cheeks burning as he looks down at you with your face pressed against his bare chest.  "Sorry~, but let me come with you tomorrow," you say smiling up at the swordsman. Pushing yourself up carefully on your elbow, you settle into a more comfortable position and continue.  "It'll be fun if we're together, and it'll be so nice to have some time together off the ship again." You say. It's not often that you and Zoro get time alone anywhere, normally you'd have a task or chore or something that kept you apart and busy, and when you didn't you usually weren't alone.  "...Okay-- but tell Nami to give Sanji the list next time, he's the one who cooks!" Zoro says with a huff. You put your head down on his shoulder with a laugh and Zoro can't hide the smile that tugs at his lips.  -- The next day -- The morning fog had cleared by the time you landed in the port, revealing a bustling community with a port-side market lined with colorful stalls of fresh foods and intricate crafts. The dock grew closer and as Franky maneuvered the Sunny into place, Zoro came down from the crows nest. The crew met in the kitchen. It'd be a two day stay, a quick stop for food and fuel and a bit more time to let a passing storm go by.  "Zoro, I want you to look closely at each item I've written down and each item you pick up." Nami says, pointing to the paper in her hand that she then folds and hand to an annoyed looking Zoro.  "I'm not a kid! And I only messed up once!" He claims.  "Three times." Nami says glaring stiffly at him. "Then don't send me to do it!" Zoro shouts, his ears turning red with frustration. "ZORO! Do not shout at Nami-chan!" Sanji shouts back at the swordsman, fists clenched.  "Shut up!" Zoro responds. "Maybe I should send someone else..." Nami begins to say, looking around the room. "No it's okay, Zoro and I can do it," you say, eyeing your boyfriend and the cook who are getting a little too aggressive with their argument in the corner.  "Oh! Y/N you're going with Zoro? That'd be perfect-- here!" Nami says, grabbing the note back from Zoro and taking out another, noticeably longer one and folding it. She hands it to you and smiles, "I trust you! Watch him!", Nami points at Zoro who's grabbing Sanji by the shirt collar. You laugh and grab Zoro's arm, dragging him away from the cook.  "You can count on us! Be back soon everybody!", and with a smile you push Zoro out the door.
