Make an au based on emojis-

🔥🪲

Hmmmm

Well the fire makes me think of Ace and the beetle makes me think of Luffy's love of beetles

It would be funny if I just made an au where Ace can talk to bugs--

Or I could go the boring route of Luffy being older than Ace

Or since it's 2 emojis and Ace and Sabo are kinda a duo (Luffy made them a trio later but still--) so,,, Sabo eats a devilfruit that let's him control insects? He is a little neat but he's neat in a steam punk way so I think he could reasonably be covered in bugs.

For that to change much he would probably have had to eat the devilfruit when he was young, and if we're following the theme of the brothers eating their devilfruit not knowing and just being hungry then maybe Sabo found it shortly after he ran away back when he was struggling to feed himself? Then he ate the devilfruit and bugs started talking to him - kinda. Bugs have a weird way of talking, Sabo can understand what they're saying but he can't quote it or really explain what he's hearing other than that it's the bugs. The bugs lead him to food and he starts being a very attentive forest gremlin more than a trash heap gremlin. Then he meets Ace and Ace asks him if he ever tried to tell the bugs what to do. Sabo hadn't, because that would be rude, but he wasn't noble anymore so he supposed he should be a little rude.

He told the insects around them and under the earth to come to him, and soon enough neat little rows of ants and beetles and earwigs and moths and worms started gathering at his feet.

Ace thought it was the coolest thing ever, Sabo felt more powerful than he ever had. He remembered how his father and mother had both bristled and left in the middle of dinner because a spider had appeared in their windowsill. Now he could control one of the things they feared. Now he was one with all the filth they hated. Now he was sure he could never be their son.

Then Sabo met Luffy, another monster like him, and if Ace didn't speak of him as less than dirt then maybe Sabo would have asked Luffy if he was really rubber down to the bones, if he could hear things other people couldn't, if he was a monster for a reason.

bug ask game!

note from humblegrub: When I say "bug", I'm using it to more broadly mean any of many small, primarily terrestrial invertebrates- such as insects, arachnids, myriapods, some crustaceans, worms, terrestrial mollusks and isopods, and some other subsets of arthropods.
