Happy Birthday, you dumbass

[crepes-suzette-373]

The new Vivre Cards dropped, and it turns out Queen's real name is "Scien". Like, you know, "science"?

Oda-sensei why are you always like this? 😂😂

Also timelines had been mistaken before, so we'll see later if this needs to be rectified, but here's the currently revealed timeline of MADS activity:

That explains why he wasn't caught by the WG like Caesar was (but then how did Judge not get caught??).

Also Queen has a kid. People on Twitter were saying it might be Franky, and that's WILD. The timeline does fit. Franky is 36, and in the Oden flashback from 26 years ago in Water 7 we see that Franky seemingly had just arrived there after being abandoned.

I can kind of see it, I guess... Plus they're now both cyborgs, it's like fate.

So, just an aside... in relation to what I said in the Dragon Vivre Card before, even this one says "his child was born". Dragon's card saying "became Luffy's father" sounds really sus now, because like... that sounds like either he picked up Luffy from somewhere, or Luffy just poofed into existence.

Anyway, based on Queen/Scien's card, the MADS covers' timeline is basically like this, I guess:

This is such insanity LMAO

[laboratory-for-peace]

More young MADS. Tormenting them with silly costumes like they're my jesters + various artstyles.

(Also Sora is here hi Sora)

Onigashima is so close to crashing into the capital and yet there's still so much fighting going on.

ONE PIECE FANFICTION...

Summary:

King witnesses the fall of his captain and darkness envelops his mind… Why fight to survive if there is nothing left to fight for?

• GENRE: DRAMA

Characters:

- King (The Wildfire)

- Queen (The Plague)

Together

The dark clouds... The pale moon... The smell of blood in his nostrils... The painful, labored breaths and a suffocating silence plunged him into the darkest solitude... The scarlet eyes, sparkling with tears, watched the celestial dragon fall... like a shooting star, but this time no wish would be made.

King: K-Kaido-san! (He tried to get up, he was in a panic... Kaido needed him now... King had to save him! Like his captain had done long ago! HE COULDN'T LET THAT LAUGHING BOY TAKE HIS EMPEROR AWAY!!! But...) GAAAH!!! (FUCK!!! His wounds were too severe! He couldn't move... NO! But he didn't want to give up! He looked imploringly at the leaden sky, flapping his black wings vigorously... He screamed with all his strength as if he were begging for a miracle! He needed it! NOW!!!) I'M COMING!!! I'LL SAVE YOU, KAIDO-SAN!!! I'LL TAKE YOU TO ONE PIECE!!! I PROMISED!!! (Enduring the pain, he managed to fly for a few meters, but with a missing wing he couldn't expect to cross the skies) No! (He fell to the ground, rolling in the dirty dust of that barren and polluted land) Ngh! Gah!!! (He gritted his teeth and his breathing began to gasp... He soon realized that it was over... Everything turned to dust in an instant as he felt the earth shake... His captain was sinking down, into the hell of that land he had ruled together for years and he could do nothing to avoid that terrible fate.

Tears streaked the dark face of the angel as he felt it all... The footsteps of death vibrated in the air... And an explosion, from the depths of the sea, screamed along with him) GAAAAH!!!

Kaido was gone, his heart had stopped beating while his angel was bent over mourning his passing.

King: GH-NH-GAH!!! Kaido! My Father!!! I'm sorry! Forgive me!!! I failed-!!! I failed to keep the promise I made to you!!! I'm sorry!!! I wasn't the king I was supposed to be!!! What will I do now?! Who am I without you?! I'm left alone in this world! Kaido-sama!

The wind blew carrying her tears and as the full moon appeared illuminating the world below in white.

Another man showed himself in that desolation... His gaze watched the bare horizon... he had to find that dark angel, he only hoped that at least he was still alive

Queen: King, where are you? (He looked around and a shiver made him tremble as he felt the pungent air.

Now that Kaido was gone, it would be difficult to live peacefully... He had to rely only on his own strength to defend himself... No! He would never have made it alone! In the "New World" there were too many pirates stronger and more dangerous than him... He needed his allies, his brothers, one in particular) KING!!! (He called that name... Shit! Why wasn't he answering?) GH! Damn-! Af-af-af! (He stopped to take a breath... damn! That damn Vinsmoke had managed to damage him more than he could imagine) King! (He continued to beg his colleague for an answer, but in that silence, the sound of the wind was the only sound he could hear) GH! Please, don't leave me alone- (And before he could even finish his comment, a tear carried by the wind touched his cheek while soft sighs caressed his eardrums) Huh? (He turned towards that pained moan... and there, on the ground, was lying a man with large black wings, white silver hair and a cinnamon-colored complexion... Yes, those black leather clothes were the confirmation he was looking for, that man whose face he had never seen, it was King, his dear brother) King! Is that you?

King: GH! Q-Queen- (He covered his face with his hand to hide himself... He should never have been seen in that state... He felt destroyed, devastated and this time all he could do was whimper like a baby! His pain was too great to contain what he was feeling) Please... Leave me alone... I am not worthy of my name, of my title... What the hell kind of king am I?! TELL ME?! GH!

Queen: King... What are you saying? (God! He never thought he'd find his brother so broken... But he had to be strong! They had to move on! Together!)

King: Please-! Go away and let me die in peace!!! (He tried to get up, but felt faint as soon as he forced his muscles) GAH!!! Ngh!!! (He fell again while panting in despair... Those damned wounds were excruciating... that green-haired swordsman had brought him to the brink, he was almost there to fall into the afterlife) AFF-AFF-AGH!!

Queen: I'm not going anywhere... I'm your brother (No! He couldn't let go of even the little he had left... If King couldn't be strong at that moment, maybe he should have taken matters into his own hands and pulled the wagon as far as possible... He was ready to take on this responsibility if it would have allowed the few remaining companions to be saved)... I'll do everything I can to save you (He approached the fallen angel and when he knelt down in front of him, he could see that beautiful face... He remained paralyzed for a second staring at him, he never imagined he would see behind that mask one day and above all he never imagined that King was so handsome, but there was no time for this nonsense... it was better to save his stupid jokes for later)

King: GH! (His tear-filled eyes were paralyzed staring at those glasses... King could see through those dark lenses... But Queen didn't look like his usual idiot, he wasn't clowning around like he used to... He was showing his strength right now and it was admirable... Queen was showing a man he never expected to see... A man much more powerful than he himself was) Y-you-!

Queen: Come on! You have to try to get up, I'll help you... Now that Kaido is dead we have to be strong... for him, King- (She tried to help the angel get up... she took him by the arm and managed to lift him up to sit him down, but before she could move away King's arms clung to her body)

The mane of pure white hair rested against his chest... Oh! What was he doing?! Why was King hugging him like that?!

Queen: HHH!?! K-King?

King: GH!!! Queen- Ngh! (She hugged him tighter, resting her face in the hollow of his neck, wetting his pale skin with tears... she couldn't stop sobbing... why this sudden weakness? Why did she need Queen's comfort?) Help me

Queen: (Her face frowned, now she could feel how much her brother was hurting, she felt so sorry for him... She held him tight and stood there, motionless... King needed support... Kaido had raised King like a son after all... He was still a boy when his captain had saved him... Losing a father was always hard) It's okay (She combed King's silver hair, listening to that desperate cry... It hurt so much to hear him cry like that... Her brother had always been a hateful grump, but now, if Queen had had the chance to take all that pain for him, she would have taken it)

King: W-why? (He opened his eyes looking at his older brother's chubby face... He was so serious, firm and impassive) How can you be so strong? Why isn't there even a tear on your face?

Queen: I'm hurting too, King (She wiped the tears from his dark cheek with her thumb), but I can't cry now, I have to look after you, our crew... if I want to save you I can't be weak, not now.

King: (He managed to stifle his tears to be able to speak, he wanted to explain, even if in reality there was no need) Kaido was a father to me, Queen... He was always there... He defended me, protected me... And I felt him die, I felt his pain... His dream suddenly crumble... I could do nothing but watch helplessly as he fell... I was left alone and now I can't be as strong as you! I'm sorry-!

Queen: Crying is not a sign of weakness, King... Being strong means moving forward despite everything and I'm here to help you... You know you can always count on me... You're not alone as long as I'm by your side... Don't be afraid... I know it hurts, but we'll get through this... I'm your family like Kaido was... But I can't face this alone... Don't give up! (At that moment, his hands rested on the angel's cheeks... He forced him to look at his face and pleadingly, with a tone more determined than ever, he said those words:) Please, tell me that I can still count on you

King: Yes (He grabbed the clear wrist and this time his tone rose to epochal... having his brother near him had given him hope again, now he knew what he had to do: he was the vice captain... he had to take the responsibility of having a crew to follow... he would protect his new vice captain at the cost of his life)... Yes, of course you can... I will fight alongside you until death takes me, I swear, Queen... You are the only one I have left and I will not allow anyone to hurt you.

Queen: Oh King (She hugged him tighter) I promise you we'll get through this, we'll watch each other's backs and we'll be happy again

King: GH! (He held him tight, enduring the pain of the cuts caused by Zoro's blades, but then he pulled away to immerse his red eyes in those of his brother) Y-yes, you will have to help me make decisions... (He never believed that one day he would have to take Kaido's place, but it was necessary... His captain would have wanted this from him... He knew that giving up would not be honorable, and moreover he could not throw in the towel, Queen still needed his strength to survive)... I am not a good captain, but I can do it! For the moment I ask you to take this role, I am not in the best condition

Queen: Yes, I'll take care of everything for now... as soon as you can get up again I'll roll up my sleeves to be your deputy.

King: Alright, thank you-NGH! (He squeezed his eyes shut as he pressed his hand to the wound on his chest, the blood was still coming out in gallons and it wasn't good)

Queen: (She stared at his blood-soaked chest... Damn! King wasn't feeling well at all, he had to hurry up and do something useful if he didn't want to lose him too) King, I have to get you out of here, those nasty wounds need to be treated... That Roronoa guy did a pretty bad job on you.

King: Gh-! You don't seem to have had any better treatment from "Black Leg" either. (He stroked a purple bruise on his colleague's soft cheek, he had never seen Queen with so many bruises)... Do they hurt that much-? (He didn't manage to finish the question as the blond's agitated voice drowned out his own.)

Queen: Don't worry... I'm better off than you.

King: Yes, that is undeniable NGH!!! (Another pang of pain hit his body... God! His energy was slowly draining away)

Queen: H! Don't push yourself (Fuck! No, there was no time)... Maybe I should go see a doctor- (But this time it was King who interrupted him)

King: Bandages are enough, Queen... There are few of us left alive... You are enough for me, even as a doctor.

Queen: GH! (No! King couldn't tell him that! He wasn't a doctor! He didn't know where to put his hands! He only knew that if King died because of him he would never forgive himself... he couldn't risk that much) I'm not a doctor, I'm a scientist-!

King: There's no time... Please (He closed his eyes and collapsed to the ground, he couldn't speak, he didn't know how much longer he could stay awake)

Queen: Ngh! (He gritted his teeth as he watched King in that pitiful state... his heart began to pound with terror... NO! He wasn't ready to suffer the death of a brother too!

It was difficult, but in the end he decided... He had to risk everything and try to be a doctor even if he wasn't capable of doing that job) All right... Wait for me here... I'll get all the medicine I can find and come back, but don't you die

King: I won't die... Now go (Their eyes sink into each other's before they part... But that wasn't goodbye)

The scientist started running as fast as he could... He had to find a first aid kit, but where could he look?!

Queen: (She reached Onigashima, everything was destroyed and the dead were piled up one on top of the other) Shit! SHIT! (She ran among the corpses of her comrades, but they were all soldiers, there was no sign of a doctor) The only place where there might be a medical kit left is my laboratory, but I don't know if it's intact... But I have to check! I can't just sit there and brood! King could die at any moment and I can't afford that!

He ran through the rubble and when he reached his destination he began searching through the destroyed drawers.

Queen: Come on! It must be there! Where the hell did it go?! (And when he moved the crates of test tubes, the red metal box appeared before his eyes) HERE IT IS! I took it! Here I come King! Hold on!!!

He wasted no time and went back the same way... he had never been so fast before, but an important man needed him right now and he had to overcome any limit to save that angel.

After less than 20 minutes of lightning-fast running, Queen saw the bloody plumage and the dark face more pale than ever... King was alive?! Dead?! OH GOD!!!

Queen: King! (She catapulted herself onto the prone body and shook his shoulders to wake him up) Talk to me! I'm here! Here I am! I found this! (She showed the medical kit to her brother, but her red eyes were closed... Oh no!) I'll save you! Please! Answer me! (Her screams were desperate... No! Not King! It hurt too much!!! But a gloved hand at that moment rose up and rested on the palm that was too heavy) HHH!!!

King: I'm alive, don't worry... GH!!! (SHIT! Queen was crushing him! She didn't have the slightest bit of finesse!)

Queen: Oh thank goodness!!! (She wiped the bright tears from her cheeks and then...) Oops! Sorry (getting up to give the angel below a breather... She had squashed him a little too much)

King: NGH! Take it easy... GAH!!! (He narrowed his eyes as Queen removed the cloth from the deepest wound) S-shit! (God! It hurt! But he knew it wasn't Queen's fault, his brother was taking it easy now... it was those cuts that were incredibly painful... That damned sword had been a burden for Kaido too) That sword... I've seen it before... That man had it... Oden... It was the same blade that gave Kaido the scar- GHH-!!! NGH!!! (He stiffened as he felt the needle slowly sew the furrow in his tormented skin... Oh! Damn!!! It was torture) AGH!!! F-F!!! (But he endured... Stitch after stitch)

Queen: It's going to be okay (He was focused... He couldn't make any mistakes now... God! He wasn't a good surgeon... His hands were too stubby for the job... But he didn't even notice that it was almost done, now... There were only a few stitches left and the stitches had been done perfectly... His precision had paid off... Queen wiped her sweat as she tied the last knot) Well, Kaido survived that day, I don't see why you shouldn't.

King: I don't know if I'll be that strong.

Queen: You already are (Her voice was confident, firm and King remained still, without any words)... Come on, raise your back (The scientist put a hand behind the angel's back to make him sit down)... Good, all that's missing is a good bandage and you can rest.

King: NGH!!! (He felt the bandages gradually wrap around his wounds... they hurt, but the parts now covered were already less painful) Thank you

Queen: The bleeding should stop... (She finally stared at her brother's black wing that was cut in half... Damn! It was such a shame... The Lunaria's wings were beautiful and Zoro had ruined that beauty) but there's not much that can be done about the wing, I'm sorry.

King: (No, now the only thing that mattered was having someone trustworthy by his side, a lost wing was the last thing he cared about getting back) One less limb won't change my life (He reached out at that moment and his slender fingers crossed in his pale ones... Queen's hand was stubby, but soft and cute)... well, now you're not the only one who's crippled

Queen: Yeah (She blushed as she stared at that beautiful tired smile... Well, King's opponent hadn't managed to ruin everything... Her brother's face was more beautiful than ever... She felt a little envious... Was there something bad about Lunaria? Or were they perfect in every way?) Well, if you get better I might even give you a prosthesis... it's your birthday soon- (Her words were cut off as she felt King's head rest on her shoulder... Her cheeks became vivid... King had become so affectionate, kind... It was almost unnatural, but maybe she just had to get used to it)

King: Queen... You saved my life and gave me hope... I'm sorry for all those times I insulted you over the years... I don't deserve to have an amazing brother like you... I'll be in your debt, for the rest of my life.

Queen: We will rewrite our history... together (She wrapped an arm around the Lunarian's shoulders to have him close on that cold night... They both looked up in unison and the full moon reflected in their eyes... Maybe a new dawn would come for them too)

Thanks for reading

One Piece Secret Parent Theories

This post is for documenting all the major and plausible "secret parent" theories that are popular in the fanbase, as well as the evidence and arguments for those theories being canon. So far, I have four big ones:

Crocodile is a trans man and Luffy's other parent

Crocodile is 46 and Luffy is 19, so Crocodile is old enough.

Ivankov said that they know Crocodile's secret as blackmail to get him to behave when helping them break out of Impel Down. Ivankov can change other people's genders, thus Crocodile has the past connections to be a trans man.

Ivankov is a founding member of the Revolutionary Army, just like Dragon. Thus Crocodile has an indirect connection to Dragon.

Dragon's family name wasn't public knowledge, people didn't know he was related to Garp. Even within the Revolutionary Army, it was just a rumor. Therefore, it's possible Crocodile wouldn't recognize Luffy's name from his bounty poster if he didn't know Dragon's family name and Dragon named their son "Luffy" without his knowledge.

Baroque Works has a particular focus on gender equality and diversity, especially with Bon Clay.

It would completely reframe Luffy vs Crocodile in Alabasta.

Queen is Franky's father

Queen is 56 and Franky is 36, so Queen is old enough.

Queen and Franky have the same XF Blood Type.

Queen's Vivre Card revealed that he had a kid 36 years ago. Franky is 36.

Queen's Vivre Card goes on to say that he abandoned his son when he was 10. Franky was abandoned when he was 10.

Franky doesn't go by his birth name Cutty Flam, and his appearance is drastically different than it was before. So Queen wouldn't recognize him.

Queen also doesn't go by his real name Scien, a change he made after abandoning his kid when he joined the Animal Kingdom Pirates.

Queen barely saw Franky in Wano. Queen briefly saw Franky on the monitor during Yasuie's execution, and then again briefly in Onigashima when Franky ran over Big Mom and then got in the Franky Shogun for the Straw Hat team pose.

Franky never saw Queen at all outside of his Brachiosaur form, also in the team pose scene.

Franky and Queen are both very talented with machinery and robotics, it's possible that Queen taught Franky some of that when he was a kid.

Sakazuki is Hibari's father

Sakazuki is 55 and Hibari is 17, so he's old enough.

Sakazuki and Hibari are the only two characters in the series with a Hiroshima dialect.

They both are Marines from the North Blue.

They have the same F Blood Type.

The official spin-off manga "Kobiyama Who Looks Like Koby - Two Piece in a Pod" is about a One Piece fanboy in the real world who looks like Koby. The main love interest is a girl named Akaishi who vaguely resembles Hibari, and her father looks just like Sakazuki.

Sasaki is Kokoro's son and Chimney's father

Sasaki is 34, Kokoro is 72, and Chimney is 10, so the ages line up.

Sasaki was born in the Grand Line, and Kokoro's son was born in Water Seven.

Sasaki is a Fishman, which works with Kokoro being a Mermaid and Chimney being a quarter-Mermaid with how Fishman/Mermaid genetics works.

Sasaki has green hair and tan skin, just like Kokoro and Chimney.

Kokoro and Sasaki are both alcoholics. Alcoholism can be hereditary.

Sasaki was Franky's main fight in Wano, and Franky is Kokoro's adoptive son.

Are there any other significant "secret parent" theories I'm missing?

I know there's one about Brook being Kuzan's father because they look similar and both ended up with ice powers, but the ages just don't line up. Brook died 52 years ago and Kuzan is 49. Maybe Brook could be Kuzan's grandparent, but Brook being from the West Blue and Kuzan being from the South Blue really throws a wrench in that whole theory.

I know there's another one about Dragon being Robin's dad, therefore making Luffy and Robin half-siblings, but outside of Robin and Luffy frequently being on the same mental wavelength, I really don't see enough evidence for this theory to include it besides the honorable mention here.

I wish there was a good one for Yamato's mom, but unfortunately, Yamato was born in November the exact same year that Kaido came to Wano, meaning his parentage possibilities are "anyone outside of Wano" or "anyone in Wano". If he was born any other year (or even just earlier in the year), it'd at least be narrowed down to one or the other, but nope.

I decided to leave out the titles, but don’t hesitate to ask if any caught your attention and you want to check out the whole thing! <3

Still pouting because he's unfairly knightly as if he wasn't being a big tease just a second ago, you sink deeper into the soft embrace of the duvet, losing the inner fight too soon and letting yourself be pampered.

Scien makes a small sound of approval, a quiet purr almost, the barely visible bulge of his tongue moving from one side of his mouth to the other all but telling of how he savors the piece of chocolate.

"What are you sounding so scared for?? Are you planning to turn down my proposal? Napoleon? Napoleon???"

"I'm joking, sorry. The others said I should joke more often... something about being able to keep a straight face."

"Pancakes again? I'm starting to get tired of this. You got something else for me, Sebastian?"

"Isn't it obvious? I'm your little bunny in heat. I'm beginning you to finally, finally take me."

"In case what? In case you take it a little too far in role-playing? In case you go down on me and the words mon empereur leave your lips?"

"Maybe I just ate something funny at lunch? You know how it is with Sebas and his fusion cuisine, always trying to live up to everyone's taste, haha…"

It's another beautiful day of your life in 19th century Paris, in the neat little mansion up the hill that you call home, just you and your lover and your 8 housemates who are reincarnated vampires and your sugar daddy landlord whose wealth you all live off of.

"I think you're okay, Nunuche. You can be dressed in more skimpy things around me, you know? Or you can discard them altogether if that's more comfortable for you. It's not like I haven't- Ouch!"

Your plea falls on deaf ears for the duration of the task, but the Jin Grandet you know won't just ignore an undressing request like that.

Your new tactic is silence, and it never works on him, but you're prone to making the same mistakes again and again and he likes that about you.

A show like that is best watched with a glass in hand, as much as he hates sounding like a certain information broker with a penchant for hedonism. 

At least it's not doves taking flight or anything else alive, but that doesn't make the contents of his inner pockets less bewildering as he takes the items out on the counter one by one.

After spending a good time admiring the tan line left by a thin strap and how it sealed their memory, seriously rivaling his awfully temporary in comparison lovemarks, he is no longer holding a grudge against non-nudity.

He places his hands on the steering wheel to get a better feeling of it, marine blue eyes sparkling with the wonder of a child receiving a shiny new toy on Christmas morning.

The sounds of the crowd outside are a backdrop to Ellis' soft whispers, a sharp contrast between the intimacy and the reminder of where you are. 

The last thought lingering in your mind before you orgasm is that there simply can't be any co-star of his that has ever had to fake this.

Your gaze moves from Liam's pretty lips curling in a small laughter as he conversates with Harrison, to Harrison stretching out while he listens; to Elbert's tall frame as he looks out the window next to them, to Alfons staring at him, putting one leg over the other as he stirs the steamy liquid in his cup.

Without your favorite attic slash club room, you have to make do with your…what, super comfy bed covered with many pillows and the plushies he bought you? Seems like a bargain.

No, you should be thankful for having been given this chance at all - to Elbert for agreeing, and mostly to Alfons, who put the wicked plan together.

It's like diving into the unknown; both for you and for him, almost in a manner that is special to you, to have another first together, to share the feeling of this discovery. 

"I swear, this has nothing to do with you, Harry. I too like to drink strawberry milk sometimes, okay? It's as simple as that! I wanted to drink some so I got myself some. It was my strawberry milk. It wasn't strawberry milk I left for you because I'm too shy to tell you I got you a gift! Jeez!"

The weapon entrusted to you - now that you recognize the pillow as such - has to act as a shield first, as you barely react fast enough to block an upcoming attack from your eccentric boyfriend.

A sense of belonging overcomes you, strongly, as if you can make Napoleon melt into your chest if you hold him like that just a little longer.

It's even more obscene when Roger smooths down your dress, letting it conceal the sight, before giving your ass a little pat.

Yet there it is, standing in your peripheral vision; the wooden cradle he presented you with tonight, just a couple of days after you first mentioned the peculiar piece of furniture.

"Their feet will be… about thiiis small," you lift your hand in the air just enough for Luke to see the measurement you draw using your thumb and index finger.

But knowing Victor and his penchant for dramatizing things, it's no wonder why you're readily brushing it off as nothing now, as you make your way into the dimly-lit ballroom.

More than for his country, it's dulcet et decorum to live for MC - in the same way that more than the bunch of rowdy residents downstairs', it's important to ensure MC's good time. So here he is.

ALRIGHT so the Bill in this AU is done! Might as well drop some more lore on his behalf LMAO

Alright so Bill was a child raised in a heavily spiritual and loving parents and twin sibling named REDACTED. Both had always surrounded themselves with nature, and to no surprise would their children enjoyed it as well. Bill at the time had shown signs of brilliance, but struggled immensely due to the relentless bullying of his disfigured eye and the other being completely fake. He was pulled out of school during intermediate until high school. While he still had a hard time it was tolerable to say he pushed through thanks to his brother. Now, his brother REDACTED was never pulled from school, meaning that he had an easier time getting along with class mates in comparison to Bill.

With bill wanting to make friends, he refused to mention any other bullying to avoid being pulled out again, to which he develops a friend group he considers close till this day. Because of the sudden drift, both personalities and experiences clashed constantly. While they still stuck together, cared for one another– bill couldn’t help but feel awkward, and felt suffocated by his brother’s success to blend in. Bill managed to graduate early due to his genius, and managed to get into college at the age of 15. He finished his degree young, and decided to go into Paranormal Studies. His brother during this time, had a falling out with Bill during a college party. Leaving both parties humiliated, embarrassed, and ashamed they became estranged, forcing Bill more into his college studies. His college roommates in this AU are Pyronica and Kryptos, to which both had decided to come and help Bill on his journey to the unknown anomalies.

In the van the three traveled, made a couple of friends throughout their journey, and recorded countless entries on their travels. However, they discover the only way to truly understand the reason why this all happened was to travel to Gravity Falls. Using whatever money he had, he built what he called his “Cipher Den” a place where the three are able to gather their findings and begin to find answers.

Alas, while they all seemed to collect plenty, for Bill it wasn’t enough. No answers to where they came from, or why they existed. It haunted him day and night until roaming within the woods and stumbling in a cave encased in writing to summon a powerful being. So powerful in fact it is warned to never summon this demon, for his fate will destroy everything you love.

Of course we wouldn’t be able to move on with the plot if he didn’t! And so, Bill was introduced to Ford! A creature wise, smart, calm and collected. His approach while intimidating at first, would soon have Bill admiring his brains. Their deal was struck, and in secret kept this away from his friends. Slowly he’d been manipulated by Ford, slowly isolating him until Kyotos and Pyronica would barely see him outside of his lab. Soon, the portal would begin its process, blinding following Ford as he was a god.

It wasn’t until the two assistants were swept into the portal for a second that they’d warn Bill, before being shut down by the obsessed scientist. Sadly that would be the last time they’d ever see Bill, as for the next few years he became a hermit in the Den as his friends ditched him entirely. Ill managed to get into contact with his brother, where there was slight hope in bonding from REDACTED, Bill still was stuck in his old ways, fighting his brother and being knocked into the portal himself. His brother taking his place had pretended to be him, and in the mean time turn his Den to a dive bar, a popular one thanks to the odd and bizarre “pieces” scatter among the joint.

Currently, Bill is out of the portal which brings us to current day!

This AU is pretty much if Bill and Ford swapped places but lived similar paths in life:

-Ford an being from a different dimension, destroying it, went apeshit, and is a universally wanted criminal

-Bill a paranormal/anomaly scientist who fell for Ford’s trap, shut everyone out and was the one sucked into the portal

There shall be more info soon enough!

with the release of the vivre card translations i cant help but think about my love of kaidou, queen and king. queen has SO much lore and notable importance as a figure within the world of one piece AND within the wano arc, meanwhile King is just sort of a lunarian and doesn’t have much else to him as a character aside from things directly tied to that fact. but that’s exactly why i love the two of them so much. King’s simplicity is what makes him great !!! KAIDOU JUST PICKED HIM UP AND WAS LIKE “hello experiment baby. this lab’s fuckin nuts right. Do you want to be best buddies cause’ i’m gonna change the world” And he was like “well shit im not doin anything else let’s do this man” AND THE REST WAS HISTORY

and on the other hand its so funny how queen was invited and waited SEVEN WHOLE ASS YEARS to show up at kaidou’s door because he was busy with MADS. seven whole years of kaidou and king probably golfing using poor starving people as golfballs down in wano with them going back and forth daily about if queen is going to accept his invitation or not, only for kaidou to one day call across the room like “GUESS WHO I JUST GOT A CALL BACK FROM! I TOLD YOU!! I TOLD YOUR ASS SCIEN WOULD JOIN!!!” And a few days later some big fat guy shows up at their doorstep and:

kaidou: who the fuck is this

Queen: it’s me scien

Kaidou: why the fuck are you fat now. im pretty sure you used to be ripped

Queen: Love eating #Funky #Exciting

Kaidou: well fuck yeah Welcome to the team

And proceeded to place him on equal standing with his best bro. Despite all the fucked up stuff he’s done this is why i can’t help but love kaidou. He’s kind of just a big stupid asshole who’s been fucking around his whole life trying to kill himself, kill everyone else and has been waiting for Super Mario From The Legends to show up at wano and kill him. He drinks during battle. He gets really sad about not having fair fights with people he’s actively trying to kill. He’s a total piece of shit and put his son in a cave and chains for his oden hyperfixation but actively respects his pronouns. He paid two of the most heinous men alive to fund The Worst Devil Fruits Ever. He never confirms a kill and just assumes anyone he swings at hard enough has died instantly. Kaidou what’s wrong with you dude i love you

and then throw in jack who kaidou definitely put in just so he could tell people they were the four horsemen who is the biggest pushover of all time who none of the three respect and he’s just fine with that. What is their problem

I dont care if this mischaracterizes them i just want to have fun

[laboratory-for-peace]

HIYAHIYA!!

little question which made character do you think has not enough lore or background to them? and do you have any personal headcanons of what their past would be?

MAN this is hard to answer because they all have sections of their lives where we kinda know everything and sections of their lives where we know nothing. I think the only exception is Vegapunk, we have his entire life laid out.

For example, the Vivre Cards gave us literally ALL of Queens timeline from age 17 up to today. But what about before that? Nothing, other than the fact he seemed to do science from when he was a child. Who was he before that? Was he underworld? I like to imagine he was already selling chemical weapons to various criminal organizations even as a kid, but there's nothing in canon to support that. Was he an urchin? Part of a family or mentor line of crazy inventors? I have no clue. "Scrappy little street urchin selling chemicals to criminals to make a fortune from nothing" kinda matches his vibe for me. Maybe his love for the stage is similar to Gild Tesoro's in that way.

The exact same thing goes for Caesar. Starting with MADS and onward, we've known where he's been at every point in his life. But the Before is the big mystery. I already talked about my headcanon of him being a menace even as a child in that other post lol. He does kind of give me the vibe that maybe he grew up pampered, especially between his personality and his fancy cravat in the first page of the MADS flashback. I don't know what any family of his would be like, thought. Maybe his science is the result of having access to formal education? Kind of the opposite of the scrappy background I imagine Scien had. He CLEARLY loves attention, so he either is used to having plenty of it or the exact opposite.

Judge is interesting because his weird gaps in lore are two: once again before MADS and the few years between the disolvment of the organization and Reijus birth. He has a lot of lore, but the Vinsmoke family history stuff interests me; What was the previous king, Sanji's grandfather, like? He must have been very cruel too, right? When did he die? Judge seems to have become king at a pretty young age, by age 35 in Reiju's flashback, he's already in charge. Most people in their 40s and 50s have living parents, y'know? How did his father die? His mother? When did he marry Sora? But if you ignore these details, we also know a lot about him. I wouldn't be surprised if this man took his own father's life to get the crown or something.

Honestly, the one with the least lore, might actually be Buckin. Yeah. I guess because the Rocks Pirates will show up more later, lol, if Loki's flashback is of any hint. At least I hope they do, I am curious to see what her relationship with the rest of the crew was like. I hope she and Gloriosa had a toxic girlboss yuri rivalry or something. I mean it. Give me more fun interactions between all the piratesses of the One Piece world. Do you think she's mad Linlin invited her clone to the wedding and not her, her actual old crewmate? Does Linlin even know that's a clone? The drama has much potential....

[Shuuen no Virche] Birthday Short Story - Dahut

The birthday celebration of a certain research institute's deputy director

<Original post here>

･ﾟ･:,｡★ translation under the cut ★,｡･:･ﾟ

In the break room of the National Research Institute—.  

Dahut: Hm, hmm, hmm ♪ Alright, all done! Thank goodness I made it in time~!  

(door opens)  

Mathis: Happy birthday, Dahut— …Err, wahh…!!  

Lucas: What a sight… Are all the desserts spread out on this table made by you, Dahut?  

Dahut: Well, of course ��� I put my all into preparing for this day! It’s not everyday I get the chance to invite guests over and treat them to sweets~.  

Yves: It’s nice of you to prepare such a warm welcome. Is it alright though? You’re the star today, so I can’t believe you prepared all of this…  

Dahut: Don't worry about it. I’m the one who suggested having a tea party to celebrate. I’d be delighted if all of you let me know what you think.  

Ankou: I see. Then as soon as Princess and the others are all here, let us say happy birthday togeth—Hm?  

Scien: … (*Munch, munch, munch*)  

Adolphe: Hey, this guy just started eating!?  

Mathis: M-Monsieur Brofiise!? We came here to celebrate Dahut, remember…!?  

Scien: Never heard of it. I only came here to replenish my sugar levels.  

Ankou: You truly only think of yourself…  

Dahut: Ah, no need to worry~. I knew Scien would come snack, so I baked plenty to go around ★  

Mathis: H-He’s well-prepared, isn’t he…?  

Lucas: You can get a glimpse of the trouble he goes through on a daily basis. In any case, all the sweets really do look spectacular.  

Yves: I agree. I think they look good enough to sell at a shop. Dahut, if you don’t mind, won’t you teach me how to make them sometime?  

Dahut: I’d love to ★ I’d be happy to make more baking friends, after all! Please leave the taste testing to me.  

Adolphe: Taste testing…!?  

Ankou: Although he has not yet experienced the threat of Yves’ cooking firsthand, what a terrifying proposal…!?  

Scien: Would this be considered being killed in the line of duty? Should I put together a list of candidates for the next deputy director…  

Dahut: HOLD ON A SECOND!?!?!? I was just talking about sweets, wasn’t I!?  

*CLICK*  

Nadia: —Dahut, happy birthday!  

Dahut: Huh? Ah… Nadia!? T-That surprised me…! How come you came with her…?  

Nadia: Hehe. I also wanted to celebrate with you no matter what, so my brother got me permission to go outside!  

Lucas: As of this morning, I still hadn’t received permission. I’m relieved I made it in time.  

Nadia: Also, um. I made you a present as well. I’m not sure if you’ll like it… But here you go!  

Dahut: …What's this?  

Nadia: A ribbon. I used some pretty cloth and I made it with her help.  

Nadia: Dahut, you have a lot of cute ribbons and decorative pieces attached to your clothes, so… I thought you might like things like this.  

Dahut: …  

Nadia: A-Am I wrong? I’m so sorry. Now that I think about it, I don’t know anything about you, so all I can do is imagine…  

Dahut: —That’s not it! Thanks, Nadia. I love it ★ …Please sit tight for a second.  

*Rustle, rustle…*  

Dahut: …What do you think? I tried wearing it around my neck. Does it look good on me?  

Nadia: —Yes, very much! You look very cute, Dahut.  

Dahut: Mhm, mhm. Thanks to Nadia, my cuteness shines even more now ★  

Dahut: …Thank you as well, Miss. I truly am fortunate… to be blessed with so many wonderful friends.  

Dahut: I hope that from now on, this country and this world will continue to be filled with “ordinary” kind people like all of you.  

Dahut: I’m a scientist—a devil who manipulates life—so I can’t pretend to be a virtuous person anymore—. But my birthday only comes once a year, right?  

I’m sure I’ll be forgiven for praying for that much, won’t I?

[DO NOT USE OR REPOST MY WORK W/O PERMISSION, THANK YOU]

[crepes-suzette-373]

there is a theory that while judge is a will of d member who is a descendant of joyboy sora is a former celestial dragon ( Sanji and Luffy are have a lot of similarities and contrasts there is already a luffys mother is a CD theory for many reasons including the fact that hanumans ( whose dad was a wind god) mom was a celestial ( Luffy alludes to both sun wukong and Hanuman ( one piece references journey to the west alot and you can compare Sanji to both zhu bajie and nezha)

Imagine if she was shanks older sister who had put shanks in the chest being his equivalent to reiju

I know about the Journey to the West, I also wrote about the Nezha thing. That's a very interesting theory, but it feels too random or like a wild guess. I also don't think it's right for the reason of language.

Sora uses the same generic honorific used by all the other kingdoms of the world. Sanji's brothers, who presumably learned from Judge, uses the more lofty/old-fashioned honorific used by the people of Wano and Tenryuubito. Unless Sora didn't grow up in the Holy Land like Shanks, this just doesn't fit for me.

Anyway, Shanks is a parallel to Zeff (a pirate, lost a limb saving Luffy/Sanji as a child), and unless you want to say that Zeff is the one who is somehow connected to Tenryuubito, I think this is too early and too far of a leap of logic. That's just my opinion, though.

Now Luffy's mother is weird for a whole other reason. In Dragon's Vivre Card, very suspiciously it was written that he "became Luffy's father". Not "his son Luffy is born". I don't own ALL Vivre cards, but with Scien/Queen and Judge, both their cards says "their kids are born". Why does this say "became Luffy's father"? Is Luffy not born from a mother? Did Dragon just adopt Luffy?

Also, speaking of Tenryuubito. If anyone is looking at this and haven't seen my post before, the old drafts 100% does not say that Judge's old concept was a Tenryuubito. Just saying, because I see people bring up this idea a lot.

1 December...

King was returning home, that day at work had been so tiring... And then... Nobody, as usual, had remembered that day... Why were his colleagues always so distracted? But when he opened the door of the palace... Bands of colored paper had flown into his face.

[Thin] Queen: SURPRISE!

King: What's happening?!

[Thin] Queen: 🎶 Happy birthday to you... happy birthday to you... happy birthday to Arbel... happy birthday to you 🎶

King: Sniff... Sniff... I am so... HAPPY!

[Thin] Queen: How could I forget such an important day?

King: Thanks Scien

The two hugged tightly and then King made a wish before blowing out the candle on his Cupcake
