Thinking about how Percy is trying not to be 'special' from the beginning. Thinking about how out of place he feels. Thinking about Luke telling him, when he first arrives at camp half-blood, that this is the one place where, for the first time, he's just like everyone else. Thinking about Percy's prayer to his mom, how he talks about finding belonging and real friends.
Then thinking about Percy entering the Poseidon cabin for the first time, and Chiron's voice-over telling him that as a forbidden child, he is singular, even amongst demi-gods. Alone, again.

overprotective Ace but he never gets a chance to give Zoro a shovel talk or try to keep Luffy and him as far away as possible because Zoro loves his little brother impossibly so and it'd be a dick move to threaten someone that looks at his little brother like he's the sun itself.
while he's with Luffy's crew, he quickly realizes why Zoro always seems to keep an eye on Luffy no matter what and doesn't even fight when he throws himself at him to either wrestle with him for the sake of it or fall asleep on him, and he wants to go to Zoro and tell him to fuck off, that Luffy's off limits bc he's too young, he's too good for him, whatever. but. he can't. because the way Zoro treats Luffy is the way he deserves to be treated, with love and respect, and saying Luffy's first mate adores him would be quite the insult because it's not only adoration but something more, he'll squint at Zoro and glare and scowl trying to find whatever flaw that'll give him a reason to put him in his place, but he can't find any, because Luffy will give him his strawhat (his most valuable treasure) with a smile on his face and Zoro will give him a small one in return, Zoro yells and fights and unleashes his katanas against Sanji but then he'll go to where Luffy is to let himself be handled however his captain wants in that moment, Luffy wouldn't know shyness even if it hit him in the face, yet he catches glimpses of him faintly blushing whenever his swordsman does certain things, and Ace- and Ace can just ask all of them (ask Zoro, specially) to keep him safe. his brother is a handful, he knows, but he can see why Luffy's chosen them (him, he doesn't say) and leaves knowing Luffy's on good hands
