What made you decide to write this muse?

⨳ — MUNDAY; ( accepting! )

*sweats*

here's my answer.

[unknown-writing]

The boys reacting to their s/o pulling themselves out of a Bad Depressive Relapse:

Warning(s): Mentions of depression, Intrusive thoughts, self-destructive behavior’s

A/N: I’m very proud of myself for pulling myself out of my bad depressive relapse episode this morning so, it’s time to write some comfort!

This man is pretty dense when it comes to dealing with other people’s internal suffering tbh.

Like, unless your outwardly showing signs of pain, he won’t fully get it.

He noticed that you were...Not your usual self for a while. A long while at that, it started to worry him that you weren’t laughing with him anymore for that period of your slump.

But, one morning, an early morning that is, you had snuck out of your room that you shared with the girls to find Luffy for some much needed Cuddling.

Ever so quietly moving towards his bed, you slowly climbed in. Him feeling movement on top of him startled him awake but, he kept quiet.

Seeing that you were the one crawling in his bed, literally made him have the biggest grin on his dorky face you’ve ever seen.

“Welcome back y/n-san” He whispered as he pulled you in for a tighter cuddle session, you couldn’t help but chuckle but, you kept quiet to avoid waking the other boys.

Soon enough, it was morning, and the rest of the crew saw that you two were finally cuddling again after your depressive slump.

Nami so took a picture with the Camera-snail for blackmail evidence to tease you with.

Seeing you severely depressed drove him Mad.

Not because he was mad /at you/ But because he was mad at /himself/ for not noticing it sooner than he should have.

Robin tried telling him about your depressive slump but, Zoro was completely clueless on what she was getting at.

“My y/n? Depressed? Why? She looks perfectly fine to me.”

That line was a big mistake on his part since you accidentally heard that, which sort of drove you over the edge again

Ngl, it took him quite a while for him to start making it up to you again after that night. His guilty conscious refused to let him rest peacefully until things where settled between you two again

Weeks went by, and even though most of the Straw Hats assumed you where still depressed, Zoro sensed otherwise.

It seemed like to him that you were finally starting to shed your light again, even if it was a slow start at first.

One day though, while the two of you were on grocery duties to help Sanji since he took the role of guard duty this round. You grabbed his arm and hugged it tightly.

it startled him at first because he thought he was being kidnapped or something, but once he saw that you had just grabbed onto it and acted so casually about it

This mans started to blush a pink hue. A brief silenced filled the air between you two before he spoke up,

“...Y/n-san....” He paused before turning towards you, “Is everything ok now? And I don’t mean that fake bullshit ‘Ok’ either...” he asked while looking concerned

You looked up to him, with the biggest smile he’d ever seen. Even if it was a small one, the fact that you smiled again after so long of not smiling, it drove him Wild.

“Yeah...........Yeah.......Everything’s gonna be ok now.” You started off before holding his hand firmly, “I have my Nakama...And I have you by my side. So, I’m no longer alone anymore.” You smiled again while looking up to Zoro, who still had the blush but, a genuine smile back

“That’s my girl.” Zoro just says while bending down to give you a quick peck on the forehead, which made you blush a deep crimson red seeing as you two were in public still.

Okay but, you /KNOW/ this idiot is gonna think it’s his fault your depressed.

He’ll constantly blame himself for your sadness, as it’s not something that could be easily cured with affection or food.

He’s even more sad when he can’t dote on you so much because it makes you feel even worse.

You have to keep reminding him that this was just how your brain worked sometimes.

It wasn’t until Nami and Chopper explaining it to him properly, is when he started to finally understand that some people just feel down and needed some space for a bit.

Even when he was giving you your personal space, he still made you your favorite foods, making sure that you had stuff to drink and eat even if you were cooped up in your bedroom for a long time.

He won’t admit it directly but, he genuinely misses you. He misses your smell, your touch, your face, your body, your everything.

He especially misses the way you can easily fluster him and make him feel like a King, but he’ll deny those feelings if you asked him though.

A couple of month’s had gone by of this depressive state of yours. it was starting to take a mental tole on himself, knowing that you were stuck in those same four walls, missing everything that was happening, being unable to help you at all during this.

Just as he was about to head towards the sleeping cabin area to drop off your next meal, he’d noticed that your door was slightly open. He blinked, confused and worried that somebody had tried sneaking inside of it somehow.

But soon enough, you had popped out, yawning as you’d just woken up that morning. Nothing had harmed you physically from the looks of it, he looked up and down for a while before placing the food tray on a nightstand to avoid spilling the food.

You turn after hearing the tray clink against the wooden surface, “Oh? Morning Sanji-sa--Ouf!” You where cut off from a tackle hug.

Sanji had wrapped his arms around you tightly, holding you so close to him you were practically choking on his hair. “S-Sanji?? Is everything alright?” You asked, patting his back gently

Your eyes widened as the next thing he did was give you a big passionate kiss on your lips. You felt salty fluids on his face. “Oh.” You thought as you realized what was happening

“I missed you so fucking much y/n-chan.” Sanji says after the kiss. Hearing him say that so bluntly made /you/ turn red-faced and start to stutter.

“....Yeah....I missed you too Sanji-san.” You admitted while smiling again after so long of not showing your smile to anybody. Poor Sanji nearly fainted.

Law knew something was off about you even before you realized it yourself.

You were grumpy, snippy, more “tired” than normal. You had constant mood swings that showed up out of the blue. Everything was just...Off.

It didn’t take much for him to realize that you were dealing with Depression. Although he knew very little of your past, he knew that something was eating at you.

Once your downward spiral of your mental suffering began, you stayed in your bedroom for the majority of the time, refusing to go out even if it was for a general meeting for a mission, or even for food.

Law wasn’t the best at communicating his own feelings towards somebody, so helping his crush with her depression was a little bit harder to do than he thought.

He didn’t realize that you would get so bad that you just woke up absolutely /screaming/ at the top of your lungs during a nightmare. The only reason he knew what was happening was because Bepo went to drop off some food for you, and then ran once he heard the screaming.

After a while of some studying on Depression, Law tried everything that he could to at least /try/ to get you to speak with him...But, after a few weeks of this, he started to get tired of chasing you.

“Y/n-ya...At least let me check for injuries.” He said as he sat on the floor, leaning against your bedroom door with a frown....No response.

He could hear silent sobbing and hiccups behind him, which hurt because he didn’t know how to help you! it drove him Mad!

He was about to give up, sighing in irritation. As he started to walk away, he heard the bedroom door start to click open. You peaked your head out tiredly, face stained with dried and fresh tears, your face all red from not just crying but from stress as well.

Seeing you so Broken hurt him. He’s been there before, he’d never wish to see his friends be broken like this...Let alone his crush.

You opened the door wider so that way he could come in, “...sorry....For the mess...” You weakly spoke, allowing him to enter your room.

Once the two of you were in your room, you had shut the door, then locked it behind you...Eventually turning to face Law, the next moved startled him

You were so tired from the depression night terrors, the screaming, the crying and well...Everything else...That you just fainted into his arms! “Y-Y/n-ya??” He questioned as he stood still. No response...Well, nothing with words anyways. A soft snore leaked passed your slightly open mouth

You had fallen asleep, quite literally in his arms. And he didn’t know how to handle it. You were his crush after all! What was he supposed to do!? Move you away!? Fuck.

He calmed down and carried you bridal style in his arms, thanking God that you were a heavy sleeper, and shuffled his way onto your messy bed, kicking his shoes off at least before getting comfortable.

Another week had passed since that night, and throughout that week, law would give orders to Bepo and Penguin to take control of the ship while he stayed put. he would only move to take a piss/shit or a quick shower before rushing to your side again. He’d forgo the shower if waking you would cause you to feel alone and start crying again.

Once that week had passed though, you had woken up to feel a body underneath you. Blinking, you were confused as to what was happening. You then blushed a deep crimson red seeing Law underneath you, holding you so tightly to him that you could hardly breathe properly because of it.

Law had woken up after feeling your movements to try and get out of bed and take a shower, since you hadn’t taken a proper one in the past three weeks due to your depressive state hitting you like a two ton truck.

You then felt an arm snake around your lower waste, pinning you down of sorts, which made you jump a bit and turn to see who’s it was. Only to see Law wide awake and looking upwards at you

A brief silence filled the room before Law had spoke. “Y/n-ya......You’re Ok.” he says quietly, trying not to startle you...Soon, the memories of what you went through during your depressive state had hit you. You saw everything that happened. And then you saw that Law had tried his hardest to get you to feel ok.

You started to cry again, which made him frown in worry, only to . be taken aback by the sudden tackle hug you were doing, “Law!” You kept muttering in between your hiccupped sobs as you held him.

All Law did was rub your head gently and held you close to him again. He didn’t know how to respond. “....You saved me.....” You commented, now hovering over him with a shaky smile.

Those words. Those three single words made his heart melt with pure happiness. A feeling he hasn’t had in a LONG while. Despite the fact that he hated being called a Hero, if he could save /you/ from death? Then he’ll take being called a Hero by you any day.

You just kept hiccupping as you cried of happiness, but that was easily silenced with Law’s next action. You felt Law’s rougher lips against your own, which easily made you stop crying. He broke the kiss after a while and smiled back, “...I’m glad that your Ok y/n-ya.” he says before pulling you down for another kiss

Zoro’s Wish

I wrote an angsty Zolu thing at like 4 am.

Warning for mildly graphic/Strip-tease m/m Zolu

I am not a professional writer. I did this for fun. Please no kill.

The sea was relatively calm that night, as Zoro folded his arms across his chest,  allowed his chin to drop, and his eyes to flutter closed. From the crow’s nest, the world seemed larger than life...and it was. The sun had long set beneath the horizon. The crew had long settled in for a good night’s sleep. Zoro had long remained awake and watchful. He couldn’t stand the idea of something happening at night, that may pose a threat to his found family. Especially to his Captain. Luffy meant everything. Luffy was hope, alive and flickering like a flame, inside the soul of that one strange, adorable, boy….

”Idiot” Zoro whispered with a slight smile that he was glad no one was around to see. Except maybe Luffy...he really liked the way Luffy smiled back at him. He loved when it was just the two of them, and wondered if Luffy knew how much those moments meant to him...and just like that, Zoro drifted off to sleep, and into a vivid dream, high above the waves….

Zoro’s dream: Tribute to the King of Pirates

The room was all shades of red. Purple reds, burgundy, orange reds, fire red, true red. Plush with pillows and daybeds, curtains, draperies, canopies, and one large black leather couch in the center, against the back wall. Red veils dangling before it, obscuring Zoro’s view of whomever occupied it, from the threshold of the room where he stood. Beside him stood an oddly shaped man with even more oddly shaped blue hair...Franky? Perhaps...something told him it didn’t really matter who he was. What mattered was who was waiting for him in the room that spread like a wildfire before him. “Your majesty…” bellowed the man beside him in a knowing tone, addressing the mysterious figure behind the veils. “Your guest has arrived.” Zoro wasn’t listening. He lost him at “Your majesty”. The words rang so true in his heart, but who could it be? In that way that dreams are, it was all so surreal. “Thank you, Franky.” cackled a small voice from behind the veil. Small but powerful. Like it’s owner could burst out in excitement, but was deciding to remain measured and knowing. The bouncer excused himself and shut the door behind him, leaving only Zoro and the figure cloaked in mystery. The same small voice addressed Zoro now. “Yo, Zoro…” How did he know my name? But Zoro knew that voice. “Come” it beckoned, and Zoro took a few steps forward, lifting a veil aside to reveal the couch. Upon it sat a small, skinny, boy in a straw hat. Of course! It was Luffy, King of the pirates! And Zoro was his right hand man! And this was like a dream come true! No impish grin spread across Luffy’s face, just a slight, sly, smile that Luffy saved for when he was most pleased. A smile usually saved for Zoro. Zoro began to realize that Luffy often smiled at him like this in waking life, and it left him confused. In the dream-world however, the smile’s indication was clear as bright daylight across the deck of the ship! Luffy’s eyes weren’t wide and round tonight. They were dark, deep, and hidden like a secret under the brim of his infamous hat.

For reasons he didn’t understand, and could not have explained, Zoro fell to his knees before the King. The king he’d helped create. The king he’d believed in all these years. Seeing his greatest wish fulfilled, Luffy on his metaphorical throne, brought tears to the great swordsman’s eyes. Luffy regarded him with concentrated seriousness that he saved for the direst circumstances of the greatest importance. Zoro raised his head to gaze at his King. “Zoro” “L-Luffy…” “What do you want most in the world?” Luffy asked calmly, patiently, in that tricky way he had of asking questions that revealed a huge fountain of wisdom by the time they’d run their course. “This. You as King of pirates is what I have wanted most in the world, and now it’s come true.” Luffy grinned revealing a corner of teeth. “So, now what do you want most in the world?” Zoro for the first time in his life, was ashamed to look at his captain. He didn’t know how to explain why, not even to himself. What did he want? Becoming the greatest swordsman in the world was a journey, not a destination. “What I want…?” Suddenly all he could think of were those beautiful, private moments and smiles between himself and Luffy, and how he wished they’d never end, but did he dare say so? After they’d come this far? Luffy’s smile turned down into a frown. Strange how Luffy was so wise and confident in the dream-world, and Zoro felt vulnerable as a baby bird fallen from the nest. “I wish...I wish...Luffy” Luffy’s smile turned up again. Zoro saw it and the words fell out “...I wish this moment would never end!!! I wish you’d always smile at me like that! I wish I’d always be special to you, because you’re special to me like no one else! Not because you’re my captain, not because you’re my king, because you’re my friend….but...I wish, I wish you were more…” Luffy interrupted Zoro “Show me.” “What?” “Show me what you mean, from over there” Zoro was still a few feet away from Luffy, as he sat on his leather couch shrouded in mystery and honestly to Zoro looking...sexy. Zoro had never really had a word for it, but Luffy looked sexy…

In waking life, Zoro would’ve been confused. He would not have understood what Luffy meant. But this was a dream, and Zoro knew exactly how to show Luffy. “Do you desire me, Zoro?” Luffy asked, candidly as ever. “Y-yes…” Zoro replied, shocked at the simplicity and rapidity of his response. “Then...show me..” Luffy repeated, and sat back to observe, his full attention on Zoro, nothing could tear his eyes away and Zoro realized this. It filled him with courage and joy.

The music turned up at the snap of Luffy’s fingers. Zoro closed his eyes and began swaying to the beat. Dancing came natrually to him, especially in dreams. He began by removing his swords, and placing them gently on the nearest daybed. The beat picked up and he began removing his shirt from across his muscular shoulders, revealing ages worth of scars, won by Luffy’s side. He ran his large hands across each scar, sometimes serious, sometimes smiling slightly. Looking up at Luffy here and there, who was having the same reactions. They were sharing the memories of each scar. Zoro turned his back to Luffy and shifted his pants down ever so slowley, to reveal to tops of his rock hard buttocks. Luffy grinned in spite of himself, and Zoro peeked over his shoulder (pleased with the reaction it gave his Captain.) Zoro dropped to the floor and literally crawled to Luffy, and climbed up until they were nose-to-nose “This is my desire for you, Captain. This is my greatest wish in the world…” He climbed onto Luffy’s lap, and kissed him. “No.” said Luffy simply. Zoro’s heart skipped a beat and teetered on the edge of falling, but he remembered that this was Luffy logic, and a plot twist was just around the corner. God, he knew his boy too well. Luffy pushed Zoro back to his feet. Zoro complied, still a little nervous. Luffy stood up from the couch, turned, pushed Zoro down to where he had just been sitting. “The throne is yours.” He climbed onto Zoro’s lap “....and so am I.” Zoro was stunned! Luffy leaned in, arms around Zoro’s neck, and kissed him deeply, passionately, desirously, and lovingly!! Zoro grabbed Luffy’s hips, tears cascading down his cheeks. He wrapped his arms around the lanky frame of his Captain and breathed him in. “Luffy?” “Yes, Zoro?” “Can we stay like this forever?” “Hahahaha! Of course we can!.....Zoro” “Oy, Luffy?” “...this was my wish too…”

“ZORO!!!” Zoro woke with a start “Sanji is making pancakes!” Luffy was right in his face, and it was daylight outside, and Zoro was awake now, and apparently there were pancakes….Zoro smiled up at Luffy, who grinned back as though they were of one mind.

A piece of happiness

This is a small drabble for my lovely @asktheseawitch. May it give you joy and happiness.

Marco walked out of his room, knowing that there was a high risk he would run into someone that asked him to do the impossible - keeping Luffy away from trouble. The only one succeeding in this was Luffy’s crew mates and Ace. Of course the only thing Whitebeard did was laughing at the shenanigans of the Straw Hat captain. While some of it was amusing, Marco just got a headache from all the various way the kid got into danger and that on the ship of the strongest crew, while no enemies was in sight.

Why was the Straw Hat crew here? Well, it all had to do with one of their crew mates getting married to Marco’s brother. Luffy found it interesting at first, but had the attention spawn of a toddler. Soon somethign else caught his interest and botering the crew was one of them. Like asking Marco if he pooped in his Phoenix form - Marco had facepalmed, while Thatch of course laughed his ass off and was about to answer for Marco. Only to get hit by Nami. Now that was a scary woman.

That was why Marco had been hiding in his room most of the time. First of all he didn’t want to deal with his brothers’ complains over the hyper Straw Hat captain and secondly he didn’t want to be the peace maker between Thatch and Sanji. The two cooks clashed, which had surprised Marco at first, as they had the same passion. However, Sanji’s odd decision to only give the females the best of the best and the men could settle with whatever he felt like making, was not settling well with Thatch. Marco could understand, not liking that Sannji regarded men as less worth of delicious food.

Besides that, Sanji’s flirting was even worse than Thatch’s or Marco would say swooning. To the Phoenix, Sanji was still a child, one that needed to grow up a little more. Respecting and treating people - especially his nakama - based on their personality and not gender, was somethign the cook could learn. Not that Marco would teach him that. No, Sanji would have to grow and learn when he was ready to do so.

Anyway, the reason why Marco left his room, risking to be caught up in the troubles the Straw Hat crew was causing some people, was because he felt restless and stressed. He needed to get wind beneath his wings, but he didn’t want to fly alone.

Ignoring the pleas for help, Marco went to the one place on the ship where he knew she was. Serena, the bride-to-be. She was currently watching Zoro fighting against Vista and Marco had to admit that the swordsman had great potential. Zoro was a good choice for a nakama and while he wasn’t mentioned as the first mate, Marco knew that the swordsman was the closest person to be called a first mate. Zoro was dedicated, hard working and observant, besides on the guard all the time.

“Serena, do you have a moment, yoi?” Marco asked, noticing from the corner of his eyes how Zoro glared a brief second at him, without missing a beat in the fight. Quite impressive, when thinking that he was fighting against Vista.

The woman looked at him and smiled brightly. “Sure, why?” She rose and waited for his answer. Marco smiled softly to her. “I’m about to take off, but would love some company. Would you do me the honor of gliding through the air with me, yoi?” There was a soft smirk on his lips.

He had barely finished his sentence, before Serena grinned with a mischievious glint in her eyes. “Well, if you can catch up with me, then I wouldn’t mind.” She said, arms shifting into wings as she spoke. Marco was ready and even before she had finished turning completely and took off, he was transformed too. Serena left the ship only half a second before Marco did.

The went up high, but not so high that they couldn’t see the ships. Marco had caught up with her even before they were above the highest mast, but she didn’t seem to mind. They pushed each other to their limits, flying fast at first, to only be gliding above the sea.

It was freeing to fly above and underneath the blue. Marco loved he feeling and knew so did Serena. As the were flying, he felt how all the stress left his shoulders, as a small piece of happiness filled his heart. He loked at Serena, before flying as close to her as he could. “You know, I couldn’t have asked for a better sister. It’s nice to have someone to fly with, yoi.” He cooed, his flames gently dancing over her hair, as if he was petting her head.

A soft coo was all he got in return, but words didn’t matter any longer. The way she shifted a little closer and the smile that danced in her eyes, was enough to tell him what she felt. In silence the two glided above the sea, sometimes diving in visual range of the ships, so their family knew they were still doing fine.

Between them was a perfect harmony. Marco closed his eyes for a moment, before they decended back to the ship. They had flown for quite a while, but time had stood still for them. Only because Serena was getting tired, did then land where they took off. Marco didn’t feel the same tiredness, but he knew it was due to his powers.

As they landed, Izo was waiting for them. With a soft smile he pulled his wife-to-be into his arms, kissing her head lightly. Marco smiled, as Serena snuggled a little closer to Izo. His eyes met with Izo’s and all Marco saw was a silent thanks.

Life would never be the same on the ship, but at least there was a piece of happiness in their life.
