(( something that came to my mind, when do you imagine Shanks became a Yonkou? How long after leaving the Island where he meets Luffy? =)))

((Six years after he left Luffy! I’m cheating, because it was actually revealed in one of the recent chapters (chapter 957) that he became a yonko six years before the current time in the manga, so I’m using that! 

Before this I thought he might have earned the title a bit earlier, just because it seemed from Whitebeard that he was significant enough when he returned to the Grand Line for people to be surprised that he had lost an arm. I was thinking maybe he even gained the title before then, I usually don’t take reactions from people from the Blues as evidence of the goings on within the Grand Line, since it’s pretty well explained that a lot of people from the Blues never leave their hemisphere. It’s deadly just trying to get onto the Grand Line, and once there a lot of things are required to ensure a safe voyage, so I can see many people just being content in their worlds. 

But how cool is that? Shanks goes off, saves a kid, and then becomes a yonko one-handed. Like how strong does a guy have to be? They’re reiterating how powerful his crew is too, but they all seem so normal too and they just rolled in to town one day and dominated.

I have a lot of thoughts here, hahaha))

His back slammed against the wall, his thievish fingers grasped Lucci’s coat, tugging Lucci close, his lips robbing Lucci of his breath, desperation spurring the hasty kiss, Lucci’s growl in protest selfishly ignored. Hastiness aside, for the benefit of the well-dressed gentleman, Law put some passion into the kiss while he used Lucci’s body as cover, obscuring themselves in the shadows of the dimly lit street. His already palpitating heart, excited from the chase, hammered fiercely in his chest, further stimulated by their kiss. Adrenaline coursed through his blood.

The footsteps of his pursuers came and went. Law felt Lucci’s teeth biting him and drew back, mildly breathless, raising his brows wryly. Under different circumstances, without two dangerous men hot on his tail, he would have delighted in the noise the stranger made, the deep growl that sounded alluring to his ears. 

“Shh,” Law shushed Lucci, lifting a finger to press lightly against Lucci’s lips. Law flashed an arch smile that suggested he regretted nothing, even if Lucci appeared displeased. “Was it not obvious enough what the ‘fucking hell’ I thought was doing?” Law asked, cocking an eyebrow. “Shall I do it again?” A teasing half-smile flickered on his face, before he pushed Lucci aside, to peer down the street behind him. The coast looked clear, his pursuers nowhere in sight. Law patted Lucci’s chest with mock sympathy. 

“Don’t be too upset? I didn’t steal your first kiss, did I?” His expression was unapologetic. Law’s criminal credentials typically involved the theft of a number of things, and he was happy to add ‘a first kiss’ to the list. “I meant no harm. It’s just, you were the first person I saw, and you were there, and I was in a bit of a pinch, and you were looking rather attractive,” he explained matter-of-factly, as though somehow he didn’t have a choice in the matter. Law scrutinised Lucci, looking him over, and suppressed the thought to kiss him again. 

Having made up his mind, Law stepped towards Lucci’s side, and put a hand on Lucci’s shoulder. “How about I buy you a drink, or accompany you a while, to make up for it?” Law asked, nonchalantly. “The streets are rife with crime at night,” he said, dropping his hand back to his side. “I can make sure nothing bad happens to you - well, nothing worse than that abrupt kiss and my company, perhaps?” He figured it was best he stuck with Lucci for a while, just in case. “Do you have a name, to go with that attractive face?”

(( lilac — what’s your favorite thing that you did as a teenager? :)) ))

“As a teen?  I suppose there were several hobbies that a young girl like myself enjoyed...mainly singing lessons, but also gossiping with our family’s staff members. It was always fun to gather information~”

❤ : What are some role-plays that you have done/are doing that you particularly enjoy and wish to share with your followers?

There’s a couple! Old one with @mindaxsassin tagged as ‘assassin & revolutionary’. Just the dynamic Akita and Dragon came to have is so precious to me. 

The Greek myth au with @shiapolux titled ‘amidst the everblooming groves’…. is one of my all time favourites. It features Dragon as Haides and Shia as Persephone and it’s so wholesome and aesthetic™. We aren’t far in it yet despite it having so many notes but we’re getting there!

And last but not least the renewed ‘ineluctable wrongdoings’ with you! This rareship deserves more recognition. And we have it plotted quite well. I love the dynamic, the angry frustrated sexual attraction they experience that develops into an actual enemies with benefits for the longest time. And oh the angst to come with that.

Send a 💋 for a short drabble on a time our muses kissed. (( completely ok with a dream or such too xD ))

Kiss Drabble

He’d dozed off in the heat, half in sun, half cloaked in spiked shadows that spread across his form from the sun’s light which had cast itself over a fan-shaped plant with long, neatly separated leaves. 

He appeared just as grey eyes dared to crack open despite the relaxation of the heat, and the dark, blurry form gradually took the shape of a man with a mane of dark and eyes burning with intent. 

Lucci, wasn’t it ... ?

Drake noted that he moved towards him--crawling--with a grace that was strangely feline and warm hands captured his face in a way that the ginger was sure it had never been tried before. More than that though, the kiss that came shortly after, took his breath away in its intensity as foreign lips and tongue seemed to want to devour him entirely. Time gradually began to melt away as the heat rose, threatening to strangle them both until--

gray eyes snapped open in surprise to find that he was completely and utterly alone in the man made clearing.

Ah. It had been little more than a feverish dream in the heat then.

❝Will you lose control?❞ he asks, an eyebrow raised as amber eyes set on the slightly smaller but definitely younger one. (for the Starset Starters if you want :) modern maybe?)

“That wouldn’t be very professional of me now would it?” His tone is soft but veiling a sharp edge. This one holds a predatory type of gaze. One of hunger and interest. This makes Law wary but also slightly amused that he’s garnered such interest.

“Are you hoping to see something like that? You must be bored. Or up to something.” He lightly jokes however he’s carefully observing the seemingly inquisitive man, probing for some kind of telling information.

Mafia starter - @spottedsoftpaws

      It had only been a few weeks since Sabo had joined the family, when he said family, he of course meant the mafia that he had accepted to be a part of due to needing money to support his brothers, to make them not have to worry about college, food, rant and so on. Life was mean like that, and even though they got money from Luffy’s grandpa, it still wasn’t enough to pay for both college and food which was the big problem, especially with how much they ate. It had actually been a huge problem, hence why Sabo had taken the matter into his own hands and searched out any jobs that he had been able to get his hands on though, that had turned out to be much harder than he had originally thought, which was the entire reason he had ended up joining a mafia family as they had promised safety and good money, something that had been true in the end. Luckily.

Of course Sabo had told his brothers none of this, none of how dangerous it was for him to simply go to bar or how he started to avoid them to make sure that they wouldn’t be target for something he did in his now not-so-normal life

Ocean depths, resembling endless pools of water, gazed to his left when a new face suddenly entered his view, resulting the scarred youth to observe with a slightly bored expression before a smile that didn’t quite reach the rich depths was aimed at the man.

—  ❝  Oh, you must be Lucci.. I was just thinking about when I got to meet you,   ❞  

left Sabo as he briefly bowed his head with his top hat laying beside him on the nearby table and a gloved hand briefly running through his wavy golden locks.

“Straight to the point, as expected from a CP Agent...”

Composed and outwardly relaxed, there was much that unsettled the Commander whenever he worked with or near the Cipher Pol branch. ‘That could have been me’, he admits solemnly to himself, ‘If things had gone a different way, if Sengoku wasn’t quick enough to intervene... this gun of the government could have been me.’

“...I’ve already completed what I came here for. I only thought you seemed familiar.”

(( Peridot Ghosts: What kind of things get them frazzled or anxious? Do they tend to handle them well or get swept up in the moment? ))

She was in this sort of situation plenty of time when she at times miscalculates and underestimate her opponent or target. It does not happen very often thankfully since she rarely targets unpredictable targets no matter how thrilling it might be. Initially, she might be stung for a few moments, letting her mask slip up and show her emotions. Anger, frustration, and bloodlust. After that, she does somewhat calms down and in most cases, she would abandon and seek ways to get out of the situation. Something she can't control isn't worth the risk.....most of the time that is.

          “oh, you’re back.” kaku sat up just a little more straight as he kept his eyes on the other. “did you get anything good from the store?” he was starving and he could go for just about anything.

08. strength : how does your muse use their energy ? do they tend to work towards their goals steadily or in bursts ?

When it comes to using his energy, Drake is the type of person who prefers to spend his energy as wisely as he can when it comes to a goal–well, I should say, especially when it comes to a goal. He doesn’t like to spend his energy being a bit more silly when he could be conserving what he has to further his goals, especially if things are particularly dire. So, this side of him would ramp up if he’s been injured and/or is going in and out of consciousness.

So basically, 

1) do what he can as efficiently as he can such as treat his injuries/accomplish smaller, manageable goals first,

2) rest (hopefully lightly and not for too long), and

3) repeat.

“I love the decorations.” while looking at the cat like decoration stuff. Yes, he knows a certain person would dislike this all here, so he likes it even more. Even if his voice doesn't really says that.
