OP characters as besties p.5
p.1 | p.2 | p.3 | p.4 | p.5
characters: Ace, Shanks, Mihawk
warnings: mentions of alcohol, light cussing
notes: all platonic hc's
Ace
will share his food with you
but won't let you take any off his plate
falls asleep on you all the time
uses you as his personal pillow
and will make fun of you if you freak out when riding with him on Striker
despite the fact that it's designed for only one person
but I digress
also uses you as a napkin if needed
sometimes shoots little flames at you to see your reaction
talks about Luffy nonstop
like that's the only thing he ever talks about
by the time you actually meet his little brother
you're ready to strangle both of them
not really
but you could spot the kid a mile away
before you ever actually got to know him
Ace and you working together to become more confident
always teasing each other
you having to fish him out of the ocean when he falls in
drinking contests
staring contests
fighting contests
eating contests
just competing over everything and anything possible
training together
he may be really strong and have a devil fruit power
but he won't hesitate to practice his hand-to-hand combat with you
especially if you need it
will tease you about it though
so you just push him overboard again
long talks about your lives
your pasts
your families
where you see yourselves in a year
five years
maybe even ten years
your goals
and aspirations
just talks about life
he tells you about his dad
and is relieved when you tell him that just because he was his father's son doesn't mean that'll be his legacy 
you two would die for each other
nothing will ever tear you apart
besties for the resties
9/10
super sweet and funny
but won't bathe no matter how much you beg
Shanks
party boy™
genuinely doesn't give a fuck
he's here to have fun
and protect his family
that's it
tells you the corniest jokes you've ever heard
also laughs at everything you say
like Luffy, laughs even when you're being serious
uses his missing arm as an excuse if you ever try to get him to do his duties as captain
sometimes struggles with phantom pains
but assures you they'll go away on their own
drinking contests
if he's got a drink in hand
then everyone's gonna have a good time
100% threw up on your shoes once before passing out
laughed like it was the funniest thing he'd ever heard when you told him
quickly stifles his laughter when he sees how mad you are
offers to let you throw up on his shoes to make it even
you just stare at his sandals for a moment before walking away
watching Luffy's progress through the news together
bragging about the kid as if he were your own
the antics you two get up to guarantee that Ben will have a constant headache
the rest of the crew finds your dynamic duo to be hilarious
the sheer power of this crew is near unimaginable
so if the two of you ever actually fight enemies
they don't stand a chance
if anyone ever targeted you
and hurt you
Shanks would have his crew capture your attacker
and then show them exactly why no one messes with the Red Hair Pirates
8/10
always provides a good time
but will laugh at you if you fall 
Mihawk
I ain't ever seen two pretty best friends
until now
you are probably a little more lively than this warlord
he just doesn't care for drama
which means it's up to you to keep him in the loop
yet somehow he has the truly juicy details you could only wish to find on your own
y'all have a small book club
it's just the two of you
you tried to invite Perona to join
but she thought that your reading selection was so not cute
you even tried to invite Shanks once
all that accomplished was you gaining a new drinking buddy
which Mihawk begrudgingly allowed to happen
basically, the book club is just you two sipping on wine while discussing every mistake that the author made while writing your current read
salty bitches™
you're one of the only people alive who can get Mihawk to laugh
which is your favorite party trick
except that he's never laughed at the parties you both went to
(ie visiting Shanks and getting roped into a night of drinking)
he airs out all of the other warlords' dirty laundry to you
will talk mad shit about them
well at least most of them
he finds that no matter how powerful they may be
they're all idiots in his eyes
they can't see the big picture
he trusts that you have enough common sense to use the information sparingly
and you do
for the most part
it's giving rich single wine aunt meets vodka mom (but without the kids)
9/10
knows how to relax in style
but will not let you play with his sword no matter how many times you ask

OP characters as besties p.4
p.1 | p.2 | p.3 | p.4 | p.5
characters: Luffy, Sanji, Usopp
warnings: none
notes: all platonic hc's
Luffy
if you thought he couldn't get any more chaotic
oh how wrong you are
either you increase his impulsiveness tenfold
or he drags you along no matter what you say
unintentionally teaches you to not worry about the consequences of your every action
you're definitely the voice of reason between the two of you
he thinks you're the funniest person in the world
and he thinks it's even funnier when you're being serious
will flick you on the forehead
come on, y/n, stop worrying so much
we've gotta find the meat
always snacking together
there's a good chance that if you're hungry, he's hungry
and vice-versa
like everyone else on his crew, he trusts that you can take care of yourself
he won't think twice if you go off on your own
but if he finds out that someone managed to hurt you
oh boy
that person should start writing their will immediately
no one messes with his best friend and gets away with it
if he gets in a spot of trouble
you'll be right there to help him
and if anyone hurts your best friend
rest assured they won't continue breathing for long after you find them
if you're ever upset
he might let you join him on the figurehead of the Sunny
but only for a minute
cause that's his seat
he'll pull his face in funny ways and dance around to cheer you up
will ask Sanji to make you meat
meat always cheers him up
so why wouldn't it do the same for you
7/10
will always take you on an adventure
but won't share his meat with you
Sanji
bonding over cooking
you two working together to create a breath-taking experience for the rest of the crew
admiring beautiful women together
and keeping him in check when he's being too much of a perv
helping him when he gets a really bad nosebleed
fighting together
being back to back
surrounded by enemies
and then destroying every last one of them flawlessly
making fun of that marimo 
tons of inside jokes
that none of the others could ever hope to understand
taking turns to protect the kitchen from your captain
teaching each other new methods to use while cooking
and always experimenting with new techniques and recipes
relaxing after getting your chores done
you two chilling on the deck
listening to the waves splashing against the Sunny
and the sounds of everyone doing their own things
while Brook plays some music to make the evening even more calming
then heading to the kitchen
where you both joke around while effortlessly dancing around each other to create yet another masterpiece for the others
complimenting each other's food
and being each other's taste testers
as well as providing any necessary critiques
nothing harsh
usually just adding a dash more of seasoning or allowing something to cool for a little longer
8/10
has a good heart
but will not be able to help you against an enemy if they're a woman
Usopp
the great Captain Usopp of the Usopp Pirates
will happily tell you all about his home
and the time he spent training
such a softie at heart
loves to see your new projects
whether that be some type of craft
or a weapon
yes anding his stories constantly
and expanding off of his lies to enemies
masters of deception
you're more level-headed than he is in most situations
but he does manage to put on a brave face a lot of the time
scaring him with ghost stories
and booping his nose every chance you get
hyping him up
helping him build up his confidence
he would teach you how to increase the accuracy of your aim using any type of weapon
singing songs together
and silently judging Nami's money habits together
sharing a look whenever anyone does anything stupid around you two
despite there being a 99% chance you two have also done the stupid thing
knowing what the other is saying without having to speak
but also understanding each other's gibberish
being excited to see his new inventions 
fangirling over Franky's projects together
watching each other's backs when fighting
him standing up for you if anyone is mean to you
and you taking down anyone who hurts him
being grumpy together
having afternoon tea where you two just talk shit about anyone who upset you (crew, strangers, and enemies all included)
coming up with nicknames for the entire crew
9/10
a well-rounded individual
but will not hesitate to use you as a human shield

Chopper: I think Usopp was right. y/n: I'm surprised they haven't marched in here to say 'I told you so.' Luffy: They wouldn't do that. Usopp: You're right, Luffy. For once in your life, you're 100% right. I would never say that. Usopp: turns around, the shirt they're wearing says 'Usopp Told You So' on the back

OP characters as besties p.3
p.1 | p.2 | p.3 | p.4 | p.5
characters: Franky, Brook, Robin
warnings: none
notes: all platonic hc's
Franky
will adopt you
no questions asked
won't even tell you about it
he just does it
1. because he thought it'd be funny
and 2. because he genuinely considers you to be a part of his family now
loves to tinker with you
you two act as soundboards for each other to bounce ideas off of
which leads to the weirdest possible inventions
he totally cries over your achievements
he's just so proud
and you're so super
and come on, it's manly to be so open with your emotions
or he's just having a slight malfunction
either way, we support a supportive bestie
the intrusive thoughts always win
if you propose something
from inventions to weird food combos or random unnecessary upgrades
he will 1000% make it happen
it might take a while
but the results are worth it
and those results will most likely earn both of you a harsh lecture from Nami
another duo that shares approximately 1 brain cell
which Franky hogs to create his projects
otherwise, it's on vacation
no filters
you two say the wildest things to each other
it's like you've made a whole new language
the whole crew could be lounging on the deck
enjoying some nice summer weather
and you look at the cyborg and say
ham and cheese with tomato on cherry wood
and it's like a lightbulb appears over his head
he races to his workshop to add to his latest project
meanwhile, everyone else is staring at you like you've grown an extra head
9/10
a SUPER bestie
but won't hesitate to fire you out of a canon for funsies
Brook
asks to see your panties
or asks you to steal Nami's panties
you are besties, aren't you?
isn't that the type of thing best friends do for each other?
whole conversations that consist of only skeleton jokes
plays you music all the time
will teach you any instrument you want to learn
wakes you up by playing music that you detest for no reason
dead jokes
tea parties with him and Robin
staring contest that you're not quite sure why you agreed to
but it's too late and mama ain't raise no quitter
will scare you with his soul powers
will pretend to be asleep if you're mad at him so he doesn't have to listen to you fuss at him
though that backfires pretty quick
because you just chew him out anyway
and then you chew him out again when he 'wakes' up
if you like to sing
he'll happily sing with you
though if you prefer to play an instrument
he'll play a duet with you
if you're not a musically inclined person
he'll take care of the music for you
supporting him by buying some of his TD's and merch 
deep talks that begin and end at random
catching him up with the fifty years of history that he lost
him teaching you about things from when he was alive
and telling you stories of the past
the dichotomy of the past and future combined in the present
8/10
wonderful all around
but just as pervy as the cook
Robin
tea parties with her and Brook
and lounging with her and Nami
her telling you about the history of the world
about her mission in life
you two just casually watching the others freak out over nothing
keeping cool during battles
kicking ass
and taking names
having discussions that always devolve into the darkest parts of your minds
which scares the more...impressionable members of the crew (Chopper, Usopp, Franky, and sometimes Nami)
lowkey adding even more chaos to everyone's shenanigans
her being pleasantly surprised when you reveal some of your quirks
regardless of if said quirks are just personal habits or new fighting techniques
she trusts you wholeheartedly
and you trust her just as much
you two help keep each other grounded
and have open discussions about your pasts
*working through your trauma together*
she encourages you to be more open and be the person you truly want to be
and you give her another reason to want to live
9/10
the voice of reason
but will voice the absolute worst-case scenarios at the worst times

y/n: There is no future. there is no past. do you see? Time is simultaneous, an intricately structured jewel that humans insist on viewing one edge at a time, when the whole design is visible in every facet. Franky: Brook: Robin: Everyone Else At y/n’s Surprise Birthday Party: Franky: All I asked was if you wanted to cut your birthday cake first.

OP characters as besties p.2
p.1 | p.2 | p.3 | p.4 | p.5
characters: Zoro, Chopper, Nami
warnings: none
notes: all platonic hc's
Zoro
you train together
nap together
drink together
and antagonize that perverted cook together
the two of you are always competing to see who's stronger
Zoro wins every time
but you say he actually lost because you're way cooler
how are you cooler?
because you can walk in a straight line and not get lost
a short fight follows your teasing
you two share one brain cell
and somehow he ended up pawning it off to Nami because he owed her money
which means no matter how hard you try
your plans always lack common sense
you jump right into the most drastic option
without a second thought
though, there's hardly ever a first thought
(like Zoro's big plan when facing Mr. 3)
Zoro isn't a particularly friendly-looking person
so when you're walking around on a new island
either everyone approaches you
or you use him for Scary Dog Privileges™
you try to make him carry the things you buy
and sometimes he will
but most of the time he refuses to
if you trick him into carrying your stuff
he's gonna be real angry
which makes him look even scarier
and means you can walk around with no interruptions
he's got your back
and you've got his
7/10 
he pushes you to be better, to be stronger
but will 100% get lost and blame it on you
Chopper
if you want to learn about medicine
he will explain it to you in the easiest way to understand
he loves to sleep on your lap
and thinks you're so cool
fusses at you if you train too hard
or if you get seriously injured
doesn't like it if you pull too many pranks on him
(like jumping out of a closet wearing a scary mask)
but will forgive you if you shower him in compliments
if he sees something that he thinks you'll like
he'll get it for you if he can
you two have long talks about his past 
he tells you all about living on Drum Island
and Doctorine
and Doctor Hiriluk
when you play hide and seek
he always loses
but if you play tag
he always wins
shares his food with you
possibly the best at being a hype-man
he just compliments you in the sweetest ways without meaning to 
like an offhanded remark about how you smell the best
or that he couldn't have imagined a best friend as amazing as you
if you call him a raccoon
at first, he'll be confused
huh, what do you mean y/n? did you hit your head?
but if you continue to refer to him as one
he'll yell at you
I'm a reindeer! a reindeer, damn it!
10/10
reliable and sweet
but won't go with you through a haunted house
Nami
charges you a million berries before letting you take on the title as her best friend
it's a revered position
and she can't have just anyone claiming that spot
she won't charge you any interest on the payment though
(that's the perk of being her bestie)
okay but when you two go shopping together
she always manages to talk down the price
definitely the best person to spend money with
Nami enjoys a more luxurious lifestyle
so expect to be dining and shopping in high-priced areas
your poor wallet would be empty after an hour
Sanji makes you and Nami and Robin only the finest of treats
either the cook is absolutely devastated by how close you are with Nami
or he worships you just as much
Nami doesn't let anyone scam you or harm you
there's no pulling any fast ones over on her
which means you're also immune
she will get annoyed if you contribute to a mess that she has to clean up
but she can't stay mad at you
teaches you about navigation
it's her life's passion
so you pick up a lot of tips and tricks on how to accurately gauge the weather
and how to properly chart a topographical map of islands
you also learn how to take care of the tangerines from her home
she's fiesty
but she does care
so if you get into a spot of trouble
she'll be right there to help you out
8/10
loyal and smart
but will give you a bill at the end of the month for eating her tangerines

OP characters as besties p.1
p.1 | p.2 | p.3 | p.4 | p.5
characters: Trafalgar Law, Bepo
warnings: none
notes: all platonic hc's
Law
it takes a long time for Law to consider you as his best friend
opening up to others is hard 
and trusting them is even harder
but he makes the effort once he realizes that he likes having you around
as his best friend
you take it upon yourself to keep a closer eye on him
he gets grumpy when you remind him to sleep or eat
but he doesn't have a good argument to not take a break
he makes sure you take care of yourself
and gets mildly annoyed when you get yourself injured because you just jump into every altercation without a second thought
(he's only upset because he's worried)
in fights, he will do his best to keep an eye out for you
if you're in trouble, he'll help
and then make a sarcastic remark about the fact you almost got hit
(he looks out for his whole crew, but you also need to be able to protect yourself)
if you notice an enemy sneaking up on Law
despite knowing he could easily deal with it himself
you'll take them out before they even get the chance to try and hurt him
he'll probably make some comment about you looking out for yourself over watching him in battle
might try to explain his medical textbooks to you
and even if you don't understand any of the words he's saying
you'll just nod along
trying your best to remember any of it
eventually, you'll pick up some of his little habits
and as a result, you'll become more knowledgable about the things he enjoys
bonding over manga is a no brainer
you stumbled across his collection one day
which prompted a very embarrassed Law to kick you out of his room
but after that, you would constantly bring up the newest releases and buy him little keepsakes of his favorite characters
he was wary of your intentions at first
not sure if you were teasing him
or if it was some kind of power play to blackmail him
but you were just genuinely excited that you and your captain had a shared interest
something that you could converse about for days on end
lots of teasing and small arguments happen
people who didn't know you would often find themselves thinking that you two hated each other
but that couldn't be further from the truth
cuddle sessions and naps with him and Bepo
he thinks it's cute when you fall asleep on the mink
and will take a picture every time he catches you like that
(just to make fun of you later)
(and totally not because he likes to look at the pics when he's feeling down)
will go to hell and back for you
once you've earned his loyalty and trust
no one will be able to bring any harm to you
8/10
good friend
but will not hesitate to chop you into pieces if you annoy him too much
Bepo
between him, Penguin, and Shachi, you're always in some kind of trouble
will cover for you sometimes because Law has a soft spot for him
doesn't mind if you use him as a pillow
(it gives him an excuse to nap)
as much as he takes the blame for your shenanigans
he will also push the blame onto you
it all depends on what kind of trouble you two managed to get into
constantly pulling pranks on everyone
you two definitely compete against Penguin and Shachi for no reason
which team cooks the best
who can annoy Law the most without getting punished
who can stick the most post-it notes on Law before he wakes up
who can steal Law's hat first
(Law is so tired of y'all including him in your silly games)
your team almost always wins because of Bepo
like your best friend, you don't enjoy being underwater for too long
but you also think it's really cool 
so when Bepo is freaking out about the air thinning 
and how he can't breathe
you're right there doing your best to calm him down
the crew always makes you help him
because you're the only person other than Law who can get him to chill
though if you're feeling a little claustrophobic yourself
you sometimes make the situation a little worse
just so you and your bestie can get some fresh air faster
you're the voice of reason between the two of you
which isn't saying much
since you cause just as much if not more chaos than him
you two provide some comic relief to the others
though if there's something seriously wrong, they'll all rush to defend both of you
Bepo doesn't really like to get into fights
(he gets a little scared)
and even if you don't either
you will if it's to keep him safe
if you're cornered
and there's no one else around to help
Bepo will swoop in to save you
or at least try to
it's the thought that counts, right?
if you land on an island that's super cold
you'll glue yourself to the warmth of his fur
and if you land on an island that's extremely hot
you'll do everything you can to help him stay cool
you two look out for each other
and just have a blast wherever you go
8/10
fun to joke around with
but will throw you under the bus if it means he won't get in trouble

OP characters with artist s/o P.6
p.1 | p.2 | p.3 | p.4 | p.5 | p.6
pairings: Shanks x reader, Mihawk x reader
warnings: mentions of alcohol, cuss words
Shanks
likes to sneak up on you when you're focused
and scare the living daylights out of you
which has one of two results
your project is now ruined
or it's going to take you hours to fix it
the consequence is always the same
you throw the captain out of your room
or off the ship depending on the circumstances
but he thinks it was worth it to see your face
will be so excited if you ask to draw him
make sure you get his good side
and make him look like a badass
another one of the worst people to have pose for you
he just can't keep a straight face
he watches how serious you look 
and the way you're staring at him
he loses it
you'll see him break bit by bit
first, he'll adjust his shoulders
then he let out a cough
the corners of his lip will tug upwards
and that's when you know for sure you're not finishing this piece until later or another day
a few seconds later and he's laughing like a mad man
the best time to draw him is when he's drinking
he'll be so focused on the rest of the crew
and his surroundings
that he won't notice you furiously getting down every detail you can in your sketchbook
if anyone asks or says anything about your position on his crew 
(outsiders not the crew themselves)
(the crew absolutely adores you btw)
Shanks will happily claim that you're the finest artist on the whole Grand Line
and he just had to have you with him
sends your art to marine HQ all the time
to try and get them to change his wanted poster to have your drawing of him instead of a picture
just imagine one of the high-ranking officials having dozens of drawings of Shanks in their office
and when anyone asks about them
they just let out an exasperated sigh 
he just won't stop sending them
maybe some strings get pulled and for a week Shanks's wanted poster has one of your drawings
he'd be so proud
and you'd be like 
what the hell???
he would never tell you how they got ahold of your art
Mihawk
he's a man who can appreciate the finer things in life
he likes to live a quiet, semi-luxurious life
it's not like anyone would really stand a chance to take it from him
so when he's sipping wine and reading
you'll find yourself staring
then decide to do another sketch of him
Perona insists that he needs to smile and try to look cuter when you're doing so
he shouldn't look so grumpy in every single picture
you think he looks relaxed
not angry
he just has a nasty case of RBF
but that's okay with you
it does make it easier to get the detail of his face right
he doesn't mind if you make him the centerpiece of your projects
but if you ask him to pose
he'll just sit and do whatever he normally does
would probably never tell you
but he thinks it's nice when you draw Perona
you two get along so well
and she's always so excited when you ask her to pose for you
he's definitely proud of your art
it's a talent he does not possess
to transport someone somewhere else
or influence their entire perspective on life
or accurately reflect human emotion
with some paper and a few paint strokes
he's impressed
he doesn't quite understand you
you seem to find the beauty in everything
so if he takes you to do some traveling
and you're stopping at the most normal sights
someone buying bread
some kids running around
a flower that caught your attention
he might get a little grumpy
but he'll get over it
as long as you're having fun
then he doesn't care
there's definitely been a few times he catches you staring at him
your eyes full of love and wonder
and he'll clear his throat
is there something on my face?
you'll just smile and shake your head
nope, just admiring how beautiful you are
instant blush
he's not used to such tender compliments
Mihawk takes care of himself
but he doesn't care about outward appearances
so when you say things like that
it catches him off guard
he'll turn away and return the compliment
the way you see life is ever intriguing to him
he loves listening to you explain how you see the world
it's just so different from himself
and over time
he'll find himself admiring how the light shines on the ocean
and the different greens of trees
and how the wind makes leaves dance in autumn
the world is much softer through your eyes
every day presents something different
but
because of you
he starts to see the beauty that you do

OP characters with artist s/o P.5
p.1 | p.2 | p.3 | p.4 | p.5 | p.6
pairings: Robin x reader, Franky x reader
warnings: none
Robin
she loves the afternoons that you two spend together
her reading
and you facing the ocean 
sketchbook in hand
it's so serene
she doesn't mind if you draw her
will love it even if it's terrible
(which it never is)
if you have no ideas or motivation
she might suggest just having some tea and taking a break
if you want to expand your art style
and try something new
just ask Robin
she has so many suggestions
all of them creepy 
won't be offended if you decline her offer
maybe you'll try out a couple of the ideas anyway
and you end up loving them
Chopper on the other hand
the poor reindeer is traumatized
it takes a while for him to gain the courage to go back in your art studio
the eyes on that painting were just too real for him
Robin also likes to just watch you work
she thinks the way your pencil dances across the paper is mesmerizing
and you look so cute when the world fades from your attention
it's just you, your sketchbook, and the pencil in your hand
when you come up for air
maybe jump a little since you didn't know she was there
and a smile graces your lips
her heart melts
she loves it if your art is the opposite of you
so if you're super cutesy and like pastels
but all of your art is darker in color and tone
usually depicting things that would fit in at a haunted house
or if you wear all black all the time and aren't as expressive
and your art is all flower fields and sunsets and cute things
she thinks the contrast is amusing
even if you create things that align with your aesthetic
she loves all of your art
Franky
he loves when you paint on him
will ask you to do touch-ups 
will also create things just for you to decorate
he would be so happy if you helped him make blueprints for his projects
also has a space just for you in his workshop
makes you your own art studio on the Thousand Sunny
stocks it with every type of art supply that you could think of
if there are styles and techniques you want to try
but aren't sure how to go about them
he'll be happy to try them with you
hangs all of your art in his workshop
his walls are just blueprints and your projects
definitely brags about how talented you are
if anyone mentions anything art related
he'll sing about how super your art is
if you've been working on one piece for a few hours
and are obviously becoming frustrated
he'll pick you up and dance around 
as he takes you onto the main deck
the fresh air
and snacks that Franky had made for you
do so much to ease your anger
you're able to look at your project with new eyes
and that one detail that was throwing the entire composition off
was quickly changed
he loves to pose for you
but he can never fully decide on just one
so he'll cycle through like five different positions
which makes drawing him difficult
and you end up just using the time to draw him in a normal pose 
he'll cry every time you make art of him
no seriously
every
single 
time
which is very sweet
every composition you make is better than the last
and all of them deserve to be in a museum for the world to see
he tells you that just about every day
will make you your own little theme song
so when you're feeling down
he can sing it to cheer you up
(dance moves and vocalizations included)
if you're not as confident in a piece
he'll hype it up
he's your hype man after all
once he's done talking
you'll feel like nothing can hold you back
which leads to more extravagant projects
ones that take months of work to even get close to finishing
but it's all worth it
and Franky will support you the whole time
he loves seeing that look of satisfaction on your face
when you make something you love

pairing: Ace x reader
warnings: none
notes: hot and cold: the closer you are to your soulmate, the warmer you feel, and the further you are from them, the colder you feel
word count: 1226
        You lived on a very small island. This island was special for two reasons: 1, it was eternally summer, and 2, it was one of many islands under Whitebeard's protection. Which meant you lived in paradise. Or at least something very close. The other perk of living on the summer island was that it was easier to handle being separated from your soulmate. Your soulmate had to be quite a distance away because you always had this dull coldness inside. But standing in the sun, soaking in its warmth, made it bearable. 
        You didn't like the idea of being cold. You didn't like being cold at all. So you imagined that your soulmate hated it too. You figured that one day, the two of you would search for each other. Maybe they would find you and you could finally be warm inside. You longed for the day that the emptiness you felt disappeared. It's not that you weren't happy with your life, but you wanted something else. Something more. Life on the island was great, but what would life be like somewhere else? Your heart desired some form of adventure before you died. It didn't have to be extravagant or life-changing. It just needed to be different from what you knew. 
        Growing up, Ace was always cold. He had enough problems though, so he just ignored it. Why waste his time worrying about someone he had never met when he had his family right there in front of him? He found that on the days he lost himself in thought about his heritage, he felt that coldness. It was sharp and neverending. He felt cold and empty. So, when he ate the Mera Mera no Mi, he was happy. He wasn't cold anymore, or maybe he just couldn't feel it like before. He wanted his soulmate to be happy, to live a long fulfilling life, and he wasn't the man to give them that. He didn't deserve to have such tender love in his life. It was a constant struggle for him to even accept that his friends would be there for him, much less the idea that someone out there would love him for him. 
        After a while, the idea of having a soulmate had slipped his mind. Anytime he felt cold, it was because he was stuck in his own head. Not because he was far away from the person he was destined to be with. He didn't think about someone he had never met. He was focused on the new family that he had joined. The life he was building in Whitebeard's crew. 
        There were some yearly maintenance items that the crew needed to take care of. They always tried to go to the islands under their protection so that they could check-in and make sure everything was running smoothly. Plus it was a good time to get some rest from their busy day-to-day lives. So, a small group of pirates set sail to the summer island. Marco, Ace, and a few of their underlings parted ways with the Moby Dick. The check-up was only scheduled to last a week. During that time, Marco would check the health of all of the villagers and Ace would not eat all of their food. 
        The closer they got to the island, the worse Ace felt. He was used to the heat. He had been on summer islands before and was completely fine. He was made of fire, so it was hard to burn him. But he was covered in sweat, barely able to move because of how sluggish he had become. Since when did he become susceptible to the sun's rays? 
        Marco had a sneaking suspicion of what was happening. He had seen similar situations before. He himself had felt the difference in temperature as he traveled. But because of his powers, he didn't get as cold. It was a safe assumption that Ace was getting close to his soulmate, and his devil fruit powers were making the heat worse. He just hoped that this wasn't affecting his friend's soulmate as well. It was possible that their body would be experiencing the same type of heat Ace was, which wouldn't be good. 
        Upon arriving at the village, Marco immediately asked if there was anyone who was extremely sick. As the group helped Ace cool off, the first division commander followed the mayor to your house. He knew then that his suspicions had been correct. You weren't fairing much better than your other half. The only way to fix this was for you two to meet. Marco brought Ace to your house. 
        When your eyes met with his, you felt a wave of relief wash over you. You instantly felt cooler than you had in the past two weeks, but you weren't cold. You sat up as he sat down. It was awkward. Neither of you knew what to say. Marco had everyone leave so that you and your soulmate could have some time alone. You both went to speak at the same time. Then insisted that the other go first. After a few minutes of the back and forth, you were both laughing.
        Throughout the week, you and Ace spent a lot of time together. You got to know each other. You spent pretty much every day with him, listening to the stories of his adventures and the tales of him and his brother. By the end of the week, you felt like you had known him for years. You were sad that your time was coming to an end. 
        Ace didn't want to leave you behind, but you had a good life. You were happy and you had a family. You deserved to stay where you wanted. He couldn't make you leave. He tried to push out the thoughts of him not deserving to see your gorgeous smile every day or hearing you say his name or watching you struggle to hide your laughter when you thought of something funny, but he couldn't. A veil of sadness settled over his heart. He focused on packing up the ship so they could return to the Moby Dick. If he let his mind wander, he would never be able to leave. 
        So when Marco looked at you expectantly as they made their final rounds, he was confused. Why would his friend be looking at you like that? And when you showed up with a couple of bags in tow, a smile on your face, he was even more confused. What were you doing? That's when you told him what the pineapple head had done. Marco had asked you to join their crew. You were leaving your home to become a Whitebeard Pirate. To start the next chapter of your life with Ace. 
        Every day was an adventure with him. He had never been so excited in his life. He felt at home with you. You made him feel loved. With you, he began to feel as though he did deserve to live. He deserved to love and to be loved. And nothing would stop him now. He still had his struggles, but you helped him through them. Everything was right in his world.
