Did a thing for the soul and peace of mind
Kuraigana Island
Okay I thought thoughts and I really want to fixate on some horror for the month so here's the modern mishanks horror au breakdown
Mihawk and Shanks grew up and went to school in the same town on a gloomy coast. Never actually interacted, I mean, beyond small town casualty.
Shanks graduates and dives head first into the fishing industry instead of college and lives completely off-shore, inspired by Roger, who at some point retires and takes on the local lighthouse.
In the meantime, Mihawk stays put. He's Ray's kid, who's the town's preacher but more in an idgaf way. They come from a long religious line but by the time it comes to Ray, the church on their property is a complete ruin and Ray fulfills more of a governor's role than a spiritual guide. They're an okay family, actually.
Ray passes from cancer pretty young and Rodger follows soon. By that time Mihawk already has teen Perona and Shanks has already lost his arm, work and life long passion. So, he goes back home for Roger's funeral, learns that Mihawk is now kinda the town's phantom of the coast with his enormous empty property and the lighthouse, so he takes on the lighthouse for "the full recovery and rehabilitation period".
He asks Mihawk one day randomly, as his basically only immediate neighbor, to help him dye his hair and they kinda just bond after it becomes a regular occurrence.
Only kids present from the main-er cast are Perona, Zoro and Luffy per phone calls.
Perona is, again, Mihawk's kinda weird alternative kid, 16-17 something years of age, lived her whole life in the town
Zoro (14-15) volunteers to move back to town with his divorced dad after Kuina (his sister in this) has the stair accident and requires constant home care. They all hope for a quick recovery but the situation doesn't change even after a year (by the time of Shanks' arrival). So Zoro, even tho he loves his sister very much, becomes kind of a demotivated glass child. So Mihawk makes a deal — Zoro can come in and tweak with Ray's old abandoned bike projects any time and if he gets one of them moving, he can do with it whatever he feels like on Mihawk's enormous empty property under Mihawk's watchful eye. And that's he basically becomes the extra child in the house
Luffy (13) lives with Garp very much far away from the action but Shanks and Garp (coast guard his whole life) kinda have a long history of Shanks being a bastard, so at some point he became the unspoken uncle mentor hero family friend. Luffy calls him a lot because he feels that Shanks is lonely and sad for now
Haven't decided on the horror aspect yet but I'm getting there
I just thought such a thought y'all
"You love me," he jokes.
"I do," Mihawk doesn't joke in general.
Shanks gags around the accidental mouthful of jerky, desperately trying to push it down. Or up. Mihawk doesn't look up, in fact, doesn't budge at all, eyes stuck to the same word in the line.
"The—" Shanks wheezes. Shanks chokes and coughs and wiggles like a dying roach before spitting the sorry chunk out and rasping "the fuck you do" with teary eyes.
It sounds offended. A little bit hurt, metaphorically and literally. Mihawk pulls his knees up to his chest, shuts the book closed between them and clutches freezing fingers into tight fists. Then, folds his arms too for a good measure, as Shanks slides across the crow's nest in one hurried effort. It's a mere few seconds of wailing, creaking and yelping in a small space between the railings before the book he was reading tumbles down, down, down, and Shanks pulls himself up, up, up, squeezing in between Mihawk's thighs. It looks fucking scary. It feels fucking scary, with everything swaying and moaning around them from the sudden commotion and Mihawk hears a splash as he desperately clings to Shanks' collar, body pushed into awkward angles beneath the weight of another.
"What is wrong with you?!"
Shanks has that face on, one of mad childlike stubbornness, with pouting frown and searching eyes, and the wind is oh so harsh against Mihawk's back. He doesn't know what to do, every muscle very much frozen in something akin to animalistic panic. Shanks pushes for both of them, forehead pressing into his with skull-cracking force.
"Say it again."
"No."
"Captain's order."
"Don't be ridiculous."
"You're on my ship."
"That's not—"
Hands let go of the railing and touch his chin. No, cup. Hold between two palms, fingers brushing loose hair away, shaking, begging. "Mihawk, please."
Mihawk pulls the collar and bites into the sodden mouth. Hard enough to make the dry lip pop with blood, not hard enough for the bastard to let go. He keens instead, scooting in closer, so much that his knees slide almost entirely under Mihawk's behind and tip him over. There's a moment of cold fear and hearts dropping as Mihawk's head and hat fall between the spindles and someone shrieks "what the hell is going on up there" from the deck.
"Got it! Nothing!" Shanks wheezes, yanking Mihawk on top of himself, slapping a cheek to the bare chest. A few heartbeats later, a sheepish confirmation comes. "Got it?"
Mihawk squeezes his thighs and nods with a gulp, fingers stupidly not letting go of the hat's brim.
God, help them all.
The wind blows and blows, the breaths get slower, the tense muscles grow tired, and Mihawk feels himself slouch. Shanks rubs his ear slowly, almost as surprised at the loss of contact, and blinks up — all blood and snot and dried tears Mihawk rolls his eyes at.
"You're a pig of a man," he sighs, not sounding half as annoyed as he intended, not half as disgusted as he should be, wiping the scrunched face with a sleeve.
"Let me try," the captain whispers, and Mihawk waits for him to push his arm away, confused, but lips meet lips in a gentle press again and, oh, oh Shanks definitely tries.
Mihawk laughs into his face, into his neck, elbows finding rest on his shoulders, legs wrapping around his waist in surrender. He cradles the heavy red head as the man, the boy, runs the last of his quiet tears into his shirt.
"I'm so fucking tired of you."
"You're too young to be tired of anything, Red."
Shanks pulls away and slumps back, running palms along Mihawk's lost in the air forearms, holding his wrists gently. Not slim enough for the ring of fingers to connect around them, not firm enough to be meant for holding.
"I can't promise you anything," he tries once more, staring empty at the thumbs caressing him.
Shanks looks up with the same pout. "You just did."
"That wasn't a promise."
"Then let me try again," the grip grows tighter. "Until I get it right."
He won't, Mihawk knows.
They try again.
"I could pierce you with your own damn sword"
"You could do more than that. I won't mind"
"you were a "you were...
wonderful everything"
experience"
All bite no bark
I cant get too into a ship because if i get too into a ship i get way too protective over it and seeing any other ship with one of the people in it will make me physically sick. Like ill get nauseuous and unreasonably upset. Its like theyre cheating and this unfortunately applies to my personal oc ships so i just end up having to limit myself from amazing art because it makes me upset why cant i like fandom in a normal way. Like if i like a ship of two people too much theyre just dating and i cant even read x readers of them. Its how i am with rouge and roger. I tried to read reader x roger stuff and it was making my physically ill and uncomfortable 😭 Hurts so much man. Especially when you like a character that gets shipped with like everyone they interact with *cough* shanks *cough*
how does shanks manage to have some kind of sexual tension with every warlord in the sea whilst also having practically zero screen time. ramona-esque dilf of the east blue. luffy wants to be king of the pirates but is stuck sailing through the several deadly seas of his dad's evil exes. they see the straw hat and it activates their fight reflex. half-convinced that shanks gave it away with full knowledge of this
You know how I know Shanks is toxic with a capital T? Because as soon as bro pulls up to where his exes are at:
One of them IMMEDIATELY leaves as soon as he sees his face. You could not threaten him enough to breathe the same air as that homeless looking man. 😭
Meanwhile, the other is more upset by him pulling up than he is by all the other traumatic events he just went through in a literal WAR. Buggy doesn't have post traumatic stress disorder, he has post traumatic Shanks disorder. 💀
If cellphones were a thing in the One Piece universe they would both have Shanks' number saved as "do not answer" & I just wanna know exactly what put him in that position.
OPLA is so gay and Luffy is so ace that's it's not even subtle
I can't find anymore screenshots so -
*Koby and Luffy stargazing in the boat*
*Insert image of Nami and Kaya on the couch*
Nami trying to find a dinner outfit and asking Luffy: "How does this look?" "Looks like Nami."
*1 outfit later*
"Still looks like Nami."
Usopp asking Zoro: "If you were Kaya would you like me?"
Luffy: "I like you already!"
Usopp: "No that's not what I - whatever- Zoro-"
Zoro: "You're asking the wrong guy."
This live slug reaction:
*Every single interaction Zoro has with Sanji*
*Literally the moment Luffy was like, "This tastes great!" Sanji was smitten, absolutely doomed to join the crew.
*The fact that the writers both included and let Gin live, jackass captain be damned. What does this have to do with the list? Idk, I love Gin.*
*Luffy just totally going shell shocked when Zoro's hurt while the rest are rushing to help him*
Mihawk at Luffy: "Although I do like that hat." I laughed my ass off because I totally didn't expect that - they totally knew what they were doing adding that to the script you can't convince me they didn't. Mihawk's not even hiding it. He knows exactly who that hat belongs to. And also the fact that he was sent to capture Luffy, saw the hat, and said to Garp's face, "Nah I think he should be a pirate lmao get fucked."
*Mihawk's entire existence should literally make everyone swoon*
Me when two characters are so obviously gay but are somehow not canon
do you ever think about them
