❛  so, i sort of started a civil war ...  ❜ cue an innocent grin .

"Oh, that's ni – Sabo! That wasn't in the mission brief!" Great, now Lami has to go and tell Dragon that his favorite problem child has started a war, and possibly wrecked plans depending on where he started said war.

"Why can't you ever stick to a plan, honestly?"

He's lucky she likes him, really.

"I'm telling Koala about this."

okay so revolutionary army au verse; mostly bullet points for ease of info.

flevance burns when lami is six years old.

lami, as per canon, gets put into the closet by law when he goes to look for their parents and check the rest of the city. while he's gone, a marine finds her, and in a moment of weakness and sort of? principle takes pity on lami, taking her from the closet.

the marine smuggles her out just before they set the hospital on fire.

the revolutionary army is, at this point, still in its infancy – it's only been around for about six or so years. rp plot magic we're not going to look too hard at results in the marine who rescued her defecting from the world government and to the army, bringing lami with him.

iva uses his devil fruit to treat lami's white lead disease. she barely survives the treatment, and it does absolutely no favors for her future health, but she does survive.

lami's raised by the RA after this point, joining them despite her health. she's generally a behind the scenes organizer, since she's prone to sickness and not quite strong enough to be running around doing typical in person RA activities.

lami and law both believe the other to be dead, and to have died in the burning of flevance. she's surprised when his wanted posters start popping up, and starts tracking her brother on the side. she can't abandon her duties to the RA, and doesn't really have the health to go chasing him down but she does have the ability to at least keep track of him, and to request other members pass her information they may hear while on mission.

she also makes friends with sabo ( @/ryuishimei) in the RA when he joins and he's (probably) a frequent source of info. (any sabo related hcs after this point are probably built with @/ryuishimei in mind and any other sabos i write with are not required to follow them in this verse)

[amberleaddaughter]

Revolutionary Army verse tbd, that's going to be a thing now.

[kiikoku]

He doesn’t say anything. Her sound of acknowledgement is quiet but he can hear the disappointment and wonders if he had been too direct, too certain about the fate of their home and their people. Law just shrugs when she muses about someone finding and completing their father’s work. Impossible, in his mind. It was definitely destroyed. He doesn’t want to upset Lami more, though.

He looks down at her hand when it reaches for the page, turning it for him once he moves his own enough. He had gotten distracted, almost having forgot he had the book open even though he’d been staring directly at it.

“Yeah. Okay,” He says quietly, resuming with the story. Law recites the words on the page softly and surely, holding it so Lami can see the illustrations—of the poor grey duckling, ostracised and alone, trying to find a place to belong. “…you would’ve thought the mother duck would realise that’s not her baby. Not even the same species.” He mumbles under his breath.

[amberleaddaughter]

"It was in her nest," she answers with a shrug. "Why wouldn't she think it was her baby, just really weirdly ugly?" And, of course, the question of how someone else's egg got into her nest is unanswered because to the story the how didn't matter. Just the result.

Her breathing quiets as her eyes close, Lami letting the sleepiness that always accompanied Law reading to her slowly take over. It's still not the same, but it's good. She missed this. Maybe they can do it more often?

"We should look," she suggests sleepily, towards the end. "Sometime. Go back to the North Blue and see if maybe we can find someone who survived." Even if it wasn't for long, knowing that others had gotten out would be nice.

[kiikoku]

She kept insisting she was fine, and every time he checked everything was fine. The wound was very superficial, but even superficial wounds could do damage if they got infected. Law could easily fix that sort of thing if it came to it, but he was still plagued with thoughts of Lami, in pain. Lami, with a huge infection spreading and doing serious damage to her body.

“Good. Good,” Law murmurs as, with clean hands, he gently feels the area around the wound. Not raised beyond normal limits for healing. Didn’t feel warm to the touch. No excessive reddening. He could finally take a breath. “Just…let me know if anything changes. Please.”

[amberleaddaughter]

"Yes, fine. I promise. Now stop worrying." She really does appreciate his efforts and how much he cares, but sometimes it feels smothering, to have Law hover the way she does. And this time maybe it's warranted, even if it'd been barely a graze, and she gets it but.

It's not just this time, is it?

"I come to you whenever something's wrong, you know that. So you don't need to worry all the time."

[kiikoku]

continued from here with @amberleaddaughter

He actually lowers his comic book after she says that, a look of contemplation on his face. Like he’s pondering one of life’s more difficult decisions.

“…I mean. She is cool,” Law begins, setting the open book on his lap and crossing his arms. “But…well…only one of them can turn invisible, Lami.”

[amberleaddaughter]

"So? She's still better." Lami rolls her eyes, leaning back to give him a look. "Are you saying invisibility is a better power than girl boss poison?"

[horonomi]

"Would you like a lemonade? It pairs quite nicely with the pastry," he added quickly. Though it was the polite thing to offer, Sanji was almost sure he saw the maiden's face flush. Surely, it wasn't aimed at him. Perhaps she was just flushed from the atmosphere of the dazzling hall.

"Not personally, though I do know of him, of course." It was expected for men of Sanji's calibur, even as the third of four sons, to know those of similar status. His face face clearly stated he hoped he wasn't intended to introduce himself prior to courting befriending his sister. He hoped she might dance with him eventually, but he was willing to wait for the right moment to ask... & if asking truly did involve asking Lord Trafalgar for his sister's hand in dance, so be it.

[amberleaddaughter]

"Ah, I see." So her brother had vanished without even endearing himself to the prince. Of course he had. Why was she even surprised? Well, she supposed if she were surrounded by as many tittering women as he tended to be, she'd vanish too.

Still rude of him though.

"You'll probably see him soon," Lami decided finally, shrugging one shoulder daintily before biting into another pastry. "I think he's hiding from his admirers again."

[amberleaddaughter]

“You and Penguin can go find Shachi and put him back together again if you want,” Law grumbles, glaring down at the comic volume in his hands. “That idiot tried telling me Winch Green is cooler than Stealth Black. Fucking Winch Green. We can keep him in pieces around the ship, as far as I’m concerned.”

"Poison Pink is clearly superior to both of them." Lami doesn't even look up from her own comic, something about talking ducks. "So I don't know what you're both drinking."

[amberleaddaughter]

“Can I check your wound?” Concerned brother noises. “Does it hurt at the moment? Feel different at all?”

"I'm fine, Law." She lets him look, rolling her eyes subtly as he focuses on it. Lami gets it, truly but she's fine. It'd been barely a scratch, Penguin had pulled her out of the way before the man had done more than graze her shoulder, and Law had removed the threat with ruthless efficiency before a second attempt could be made.

"It doesn't hurt, nothing feels weird."

[horonomi]

"Miss Lami, a pleasure." The 3rd in line to the princedom swooned inwardly. Lami was a true beauty, just to be offered her name was a treat. That would mean somewhere around here she would have an older brother he had yet to be introduced to. All the better for him! If he was lucky the gentleman had found himself taking a stroll around the gardens with a pretty little maiden upon his arm- If not, he hoped Lord Trafalgar's duty in protecting his sister was one of mere gossip & not nearly as bad as one expected.

Sanji straightened his coat-jacket, tilting his head politely. "I'm surprised you know my name at all." He grinned towards the treats. "A fan of sweets? Don't tell anyone, but..."

Lowering his voice, he glanced around before whispering in her ear, not so close that others may think him uncouth, but close enough at the very least his brothers didn't overhear. "I may have dabbled in the kitchens this morning a little to help with the pastry preperations."

[amberleaddaughter]

She blushed lightly at the comment on her plate before huffing a little bit. "They're good, and frankly the only tolerable part of these sorts of things." Though it was interesting to hear he'd helped with the pastries. Maybe that was why they were so good.

"Everyone knows your name though." Especially at his own birthday party. "Though I had no idea you dabbled in the kitchen." Lami glanced towards the corner where she'd last seen Law, noting that he'd seemed to have vanished since she last saw him. Probably hiding in a corner to avoid all the swooning young maidens hoping to catch his eye.

"Have you met my brother?"

[horonomi]

Sanji offered Lami a look- "Do I really look like the kind of guy that would let someone else use my kitchen?"

[amberleaddaughter]

"Well that's unfortunate. How are we supposed to give you a nice cake then?"

[amberleaddaughter]

@horonomi replied to you in a post:

@amberleaddaughter "It is now that you're here!" Arms wrap around her form, giving her a little squeeze (❤️!!!)

​"Well, good to hear. Did anyone bake you a cake yet?"
