#if fucking kaido can respect his kids pronouns

[soupkiddo]

[roseaesynstylae]

I like to think of One Piece boys trying to be allies to women and LGBTQIA+ people.

Sanji: Likes to see women smiling, in that he wants to make them smile and doesn't ask them to. Is trying to unlearn his beliefs about women.

Zoro: "I do not care if you are a women. I do not care if you are trans or gay. I will fight you."

Usopp: Has made it a point to never interrupt a woman or not take her seriously. Makes an exception for the first in life-threatening situations, though.

Brook: Has stopped asking for to see women's panties. Has instead started asking their opinions on music.

Jinbei: If you catcall, slut-shame, or victim-blame, he will politely ask if the woman/women in question want to handle it herself/themselves. If they don't, he will teach the person in question a lesson in respect.

Franky: If he can run around in a speedo and receive little to no sexual comments, women should be able to do the same. He is trying to spread this view.

Luffy: Has little to no idea why people treat women and LQBTQIA+ people differently. Will happily beat up anyone if they start being weird.

Law: "I treat everyone equally. That is to say, I have no qualms dismembering, snarking at, or killing them. I don't discriminate."

Kid: Equal-opportunity murderer.

Killer: If a man gropes a woman is front of him, he gropes the man and sees how he likes it. Then he beats the guy's ass (often fatally). He may be homicidal, but he has standards.

Bege: "If Pez is gay, or figures out that he's actually a girl, that's fine. I'll be happy with a son-in-law or a daughter."

Ace: Is happy to be eye-candy. Thinks that it's only fair.

Kaido: Doesn't misgender people. He has a son, thank you very much, and as badly as he treats Yamato, he will hurt anyone who uses the wrong pronouns.

Izou: "Misgender my sister and I'll fucking kill you."

Katakuri: Put down his sisters and die. Misgender his siblings and die. Imply that there's anything wrong with their orientation and die.

Rocinante: Firmly believes that virginity is a social construct and that women being identified by their relationship to men is the stupidest thing imaginable. (I headcanon him as being just an ally [or, to put it more accurately, a guy who has basic decency] in general.)

Coffee

IN WHICH: Saiki meets a girl who will do anything for free coffee.

barista!saiki x reader

word count: 752

song to play: coffee by beabadoobee

warnings: fem!reader, swearing, she/her pronouns, crack?

a/n: saiki's thoughts are in pink!!! (future me popping in this was one of my first fics so this is very much corny so sorry in advance)

Kusuo had taken a job at Café Mami because he was saving up for a new game that was coming out. There were many perks to this new job. First, he got a discount off of the coffee jelly he buys. Second, money.

But there were also downsides to this job. Firstly, it was in a popular location so he saw more people his age than adults such as couples, kids from school, and the notorious duo...

"Hey Kusuo!" Nendo beamed. "Hey Saiki!", Kaido said from right behind him.

Riki and Shun...

"How've you been buddy?"

"Please, just order and leave."

"Well that's no way to treat a loyal customer..." Shun pouted and he wanted nothing more than to kick them out.

Saiki sighed, wanting to keep his job, he handed them a menu, "Take this. I'll be over at your table in a few minutes to get your order."

"Aw, look at Saiki caring for his friends." Nendo swooned, the pink haired boy grimanced. "No, you're just hogging up the line."

The two had eventually left to find a table and Saiki was met with the next customer in line. It was Y/n L/n, another classmate of his. He had seen her a time or two conversing with dumb and dumber or Aiura Mikoto. She was also a regular here.

"Hey Ku! Can I get the usual?" He was typing her order, not even bothering to look at the girl infront of him. "Tapioca Soy Latte?" She hummed as confirmation.

"It'll be delivered to your table in just a few minutes."

Kusuo had gotten a few more orders in before another employee took over the cash register, letting him to the rounds and delivering the orders to the tables. Nendo and Kaido were arguing over what to order so he didn't even bother stopping at their table.

The table next to theirs was Y/n's. He took the drink off the tray and placed it in front of her. "That'll be 370 yen." She nodded, rummaging through her purse.

A puzzled expression formed on her face as she continued to look through her belongings. "Fuck, where is that damn thing?" She silently cursed to herself, not finding any money.

Shit, not again. She face palmed and looked back up at him with a defeated expression "So...I maybe a bit short so...will washing dishes get me a discount?"

"How short?" He furrowed his brows, skeptical.

"370 yen short..." She cringed.

This is the second downside to the job Saiki had to deal with: customers who forget to bring money. And in Y/n's case, it was constant. Done with her shit, he took the drink off the table in a flash, "That's unfortunate."

Fuck, plan B! Y/n sprung into action, getting up and taking hold of his wrist before he could walk away.

Time froze for a moment.

Oh...well...this is new

Kusuo was absolutely bewildered by the sudden contact. Like a deer caught in headlights. "How..." She started, hands slowly interlacing with his which caused the table next to theirs to erupt in howls and whistles like fucking animals.

Fucking idiots. Kusuo was calling them everything under the sun in his mind. Even though he was throwing a scowl at the girl violating his personal space, the blood rushing to face was sending an entirely different message!

Cute. She thought, grinning to herself.

What the fuck is happening right now?

She continued, "How about a kiss, hm? What will that get me?" She slightly tilted her head, her voice sweet, and eyes looking up at him innocently. A dangerous combo.

"A restraining order."

She giggled. "That's no fun."

Kusuo wasn't sure if he should respect the dedication or be scared. The correct word would be surprised. More at himself because he wasn't stopping her.

Part of Y/n was secretly enjoying this. Sure, free coffee was great but breaking through his rough exterior was even better. So, she decided to have her fun.

She made use of her other hand, lightly brushing his pink hair behind his ear, "So, how 'bout it, Ku?" their faces inches apart now.

He knew he should step back, unlace their hands, and put distance between them but he was too distracted by how good she smelled, how pretty she actually was, and the warmth of her hands against his. It was...nice.

He would never admit it to her face, of course.

"Ku?"

He relented. "I'll give it to you free of charge if this ends right now." What? His pride was at stake here.

"Deal!" She squealed. Index finger and thumb placed under his chin now, she turned his face to the side, planting a kiss on his cheek as thanks. Whether Saiki's heart skipped a beat or not is none of your business. It did

She gingerly steals her drink back off the tray and goes back to her table. Her smile was bright. She chirply sipped her tapioca soy latte, "I'll leave you a good tip!"

Like hell you will.

One Piece Chapter 986 - Initial Thoughts

That’s some good juice there, though I still have some reservations Chapter 986 has its translations at last and it’s time to see what made the editor cry

Spoilers for Chapter 986, Support the Official Release

Dang they did Pound dirty like that, he finally reunites with his family and they are just put into such an overload that they bounce in disbelief

We begin with Kin’emon and Denjiro strangely having done a full rotation around Onigashima to meet up with the other Scabbards, I guess only half of their unit raided each side of the dome

Kanjuro’s limp body lay as nostalgia gets the better of the Scabbards, though I still am not sure I believe it, why show the cut hand? If he is dead (his paintings did disappear) then I’m fine with that too, it’s just dead bodies don’t tend to “POF” when being walked past...okay so maybe the week has gotten to me, turns out Kin dropped his hat over Kanjuro’s head, still reserve that he may not be dead yet

Izo here though to lift spirits, saying you’ve survived worse though...The Payback War leads to questions but that is a red flag

Back to Kaido’s ultimatum though, it’s unsurprising that Orochi’s men would join Kaido, they weren’t really one for respecting the Kurozumi, though the Oniwaban and Mimawari do seem to have doubts, interesting too was how Kaido acknowledged and respected if the Samurai refused to join him

Hyou however is about to throw fisticuffs over this dishonour, it does make me wonder though, could I really fault Orochi’s forces for choosing to live under a strong banner than die for an honor code you could still personally live by?

Things are not looking good for Nami and Carrot, who have been collected by Big Mom’s new homies and probably gonna be used as bait, I would have to guess that someone steps in for them, Sanji is the obvious choice but how’s about Robin, or Brook! He can Soul King those Homies away and he and Franky have been AWOL for months

Meanwhile Shinobu becomes accounted for as she charges in to rescue Momo

The Kozuki heir himself is given a lifeboat by Kaido though, his growing disappointment in Momo reaching a point where he doesn’t even want him to be Oden’s son, so he gives him the chance to leave that shadow, In a way it’s the same ultimatum as Orochi’s forces: dishonour your culture to live, or die

Yamato is getting kept up to speed too, now they know that Oden’s bloodline lives on and so do his retainers. I wonder if it changes them in any way, they wanted to ‘be Oden’ partly to achieve Oden’s will because they thought nobody else was left

The cuffs actually come off at last, seems that Luffy still needs to focus a little to use his Goken Armament, but at least we won’t faff about with that. It’s strange that Yamato as strong as they’re implied was so surprised by it too

News of Luffy and Yamato’s presence though has begun a convergence, Ulti and Who’s Who pictured (wonder where Drake, Maria and Pay-Pay are), Usopp and Chopper are now going in to save Momo from what looks like the storage room, Chopper seems to imply they’re around the numbers so that means God Usopp’s gotta slay some giants

We get a Supernova shot as well; Law be sneakin’, Kid looks a bit bloodied but having fun and Zoro is still not trying to exert himself. Only ones missing are Killer, Drake, Apoo and Hawkins for it to be all the Wano Supernovas (unless Bege somehow ends up in Wano from the cover story)

Thinking of Luffy and his parents, Momo refuses Kaido’s life boat, declaring himself to the world and finally cementing his goal, he wants to be Shogun, and he basically does it the same way Luffy does his Pirate King speech

Kaido did not like that though, and the crowd laugh at his ‘foolishness’, but as a blow is about to be made Yamato’s cuffs blow up! Kaido really wasn’t kidding

So of course, as any child would if they discovered that their parent had legitimately imprisoned them with explosive cuffs, Yamato denounces Kaido as their father. Though they are really choked up about it, the last panel of their hand is weird too

Luffy with the nicknames, Yama-o. I dunno if it’s some joke, Yama is a god of death but that’s as far as my knowledge goes XD turns out it’s just the same a Tora-o, so it’s Yama-guy. Luffy respecting them pronouns even though I’m not certain if Yamato still identifies as he, would be an SBS one for clarification

Luffy does that badass bait and switch ‘the raid has started, but not for us!’ - From the Back come the scabbards as Jack is given a blast from the past

Izo quickly disarming King was surprising, Neko disarming Kaido was even more

Mid Brag though Kaido sees it, the image of Oden before he was last cut, he still tells his men to be ready but he’s off the balcony already thanks to Kin and Denjiro’s lunge

Sunacci In Fucking Deed!

A big chapter of course, we are officially starting the raid now But it is still very crowded, and we haven’t even seen Brook and Franky, let alone Caribou, Apoo, Jimbei, Robin, Sanji, Hiyori, Drake, Marco, Perospero or Killer in this chapter. Straight off the bat I am still unsure if Orochi or Kanjuro are dead, I feel there may be more to it, but maybe the Nine Scabbards prophecy by Toki wasn’t for Orochi but for Kaido, and it is he who will know the brilliance of the dawn? This chapter mainly belonged to the Scabbards and Momo, the latter finally gaining his courage in the face of death. The Luffy and Yamato stuff was a bit simple, I am still not on Team Yamato for Nakama and Luffy getting their name wrong feels like it could be a hint (I can’t remember, has Luffy every gotten the name of a future crewmate wrong?) but who knows at this point Usopp and Chopper have Numbers to deal with, Law, Kid and Zoro are walkabouts, Nami and Carrot are captured, Sanji nowhere to be Stealth Black’d, it’s not even by the slightest bit evenly matched given that two Yonko are here. And while I expect Shinobu to make it to Momo, I don’t expect Kaido to be killed by the Scabbards like that.

But alas, I did not cry at this, maybe there’s some hindsight required or maybe the editor is a bit soft, we had a similar thing with a My Hero Academia chapter which while tense was not tears level for me. Ah well, good chapter all the same.

Oh, and mercifully no break, colour page incoming as well, time for Oda to wack us out again with unusual colour schemes
