thinking about how Nami follows Belle-Mere's sacrifice in making herself the target and shock absorber of violence to prevent it from falling to others, even when she's desperately pretending not to care. putting out the lit canon fuse with her bare hands so it won't fire at Luffy in a cage. getting Zoro out of the water even though it could blow her cover with Arlong. stabbing her own hand to make it look like she stabbed Usopp. working alone and under threat for eight years rather than letting anyone from her village share that burden. letting them hate her just so they don't try to save her. !!!!!
the self-inflicted isolation. the silence of the suffering.
she makes me ill.

One Piece Modern Parents AU
Luffy → Garp
Zoro → Mihawk
Nami → Bell-mere
Usopp → Kaya's parents
Sanji → Zeff
Chopper → Hiriluk
Robin → Crocodile
Franky → Tom
Brook and Jinbei are someone's family friends, everyone's uncles
Ace being raised by Shanks, asked by Rouge, and when Ace and Luffy become friends and then brothers at school, Luffy starts looking up to Shanks
Dragon works for some sort of public service and when he finds out about Sabo, helps him get out of his home and simply gives him to Garp or Shanks because Sabo is friends with Ace and Luffy
Robin was just found by Crocodile on the street after O'Hara was burned (rather than an island O'Hara was a block of apartments known to house PhD students) and he just kind of took her in
Hiriluk is old friends with Kureha and so she's auntie Kureha
After Bell-mere is killed in gang violence, her old friend Corazon takes in Nami and her sister, alongside Law who he's been looking after for a while by that point
Zoro's parents died young and when Mihawk heard from his old friend (Kuina's dad) that this young boy who trained so hard at the dojo was in foster care, Mihawk figured a second kid wouldn't hurt
Mihawk also cares for Perona, his "friend" Moria is prone to taking long trips and forgetting his daughter can't fend for herself so several years ago he just gave her a key so she could come over whenever she needed - Moria doesn't seem to have noticed
Yassop got into an injury at work that left him unfit to care for his son. When his best friend and crush's parents offered to care for Usopp for him while he recovered as best as he could, Yassop jumped at the chance. He visits regularly, which is how Usopp meets Luffy, long before they started school
Franky and Robin are a little older than the others, and have been friends for years now. Both were outcast by their peers. Much like canon, despite their age difference, Luffy simply decided they were his friends now. At first they were unsure, since Luffy and his friends were so young, but it turns out Crocodile knows Mihawk and Shanks and so she decides it's okay. It's only by chance that they hadn't met sooner, really
Sanji got into Zeff's care after running away. He was a retired private investigator so with the power of favours and connections, he managed to adopt Sanji. It was always in his plans to go back for the kid's siblings, eventually. But, without them admitting to any harm, he had little to go on.
Brook knew Shanks when they were younger. He'd admired Roger and found out one of his "kids" went to the same school as him. They became acquaintances, and over time friends. He met Ace after Rouge died, and became uncle Brook.
Jinbei knows Mihawk and Crocodile from work. He's a similar age to them, so serves in the uncle role much like Brook does. He's known Robin and Zoro since they were taken in, though never realised the kids hadn't met.

forever thinking about how Nami could've become a really good artist as an adult if Arlong hadn't beaten it out of her in childhood
