Why King truly wears the mask

King: No one ever takes me seriously without the mask.

Zoro: Hmph! Are you just that hideous under that mask that I’d laugh? *Remembering laughing at Pika’s voice, since it didn’t match his face*

King: ...Let your friend there be the judge.

You: M-Me? Why me?! I am not your challenger here!

King: Just-

King: *takes off mask, revealing the majestic model beneath*

You: O-Oh my god, my eyes have been blessed by heaven itself!~

King: *Gestures to Zoro* See?

Zoro: *Sweatdrops* No, I think that’s just her…

Imagine King catching feelings for you

Kaido: ah, there he is, King this is the new navigator for the main ship

King: [eyes you in disinterest] I see

You: hello, I look forward to working with you.

King: I'm sure you do.

You: [ignores his rude comment]

Kaido: would you show them around the ship for me?

King: I suppose

You: [opens the door and gestures to it] Lead the way handsome.

King: [looks at you in surprise]

During a dinner

King: [sees you're not touching your sashimi plate]

You: [notices him looking] Do you like sashimi?

King: ... Yes

You: I'm a tad full at the moment to eat mine, could I get your help with it?

King: [wastes no time taking the platter from you] I take it you don't like sashimi?

You: it's not that, I'm just not in the mood for it.

King: [can't tell if you're lying] Good, because I don't know if I can work with someone who doesn't like sashimi.

You: but it would mean more for you.

King: [pauses because he didn't think of it that way before] ... So you're going to give me all your sashimi from now on?

You: [smiles at him] Maybe, if you've been a good boy.

King: [feels unfamiliar emotions stir within him]

After that dinner

You: [goes to King's rooms] King?... King, Kaido wanted me to deliver this course log to you to review for tomorrow... Huh, I'll just leave it on his desk with a note.

King: [exits the shower with just a towel and sees you kneeling on his desk chair and scribbling something down]

You: [turns around to see him trying to duck into another room] King? Is that you?

King: [freezes, knowing he's been seen]

You: wow, I've never seen you without your mask, [realizes this is a breach of his privacy, so you should your eyes] Oh my God, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to look, I promise I won't say anything to anyone.

King: [grabs his sword and stands over you]

You: [looks up when you hear the blade slide out of the sheath]

King: [feels dread and guilt fill his chest when he sees the look of terror in your eyes]

You: why?

King: I can't let you leave now that you know what I am, the government can't know that I'm still alive. I won't ever go back to being someone else's lab rat.

You: I understand. [Lowers your head in acceptance]

King: [can't bring himself to kill you, so he throws it down] damn it all, get out of my chair.

You: [scrabbles out, and silently watches him sit down and make a call using his den den mushi]

King: Kaido, the new navigator knows

Kaido: ehh? I just got them, do you know how hard it is to find a decent navigator and you're telling me you already killed the brand-new one!

King: I haven't killed them.

Kaido: They escaped you, are they at least wounded?

King: [gets comfortable in his chair] No, they're standing right before me.

You: [had a perfect view of his thighs and the v of his hips peaking out of the towel, and now you can see up his towel, so you look away]

Kaido: what's the hold-up?

King: [sees you looking away, so he leans forward, takes your jaw in his hand, and makes you look at him] We can't afford to lose our only navigator while out at sea. I want to keep them by my side in the meantime.

Kaido: [can tell he's not hearing the full truth] ... As long as it doesn't interfere with their duties, you can do whatever you want with them.

King: thank you

Kaido: now good night [hangs up]

King: [puts down the receiver, and runs his thumb over your lips] ... If you try to leave my sight, I will kill you without hesitation. You will stay by my side, and do everything I say. I do not tolerate disobedience, do you understand me? [Gently shakes you to get his point across]

You: [feels tears well up in your eyes]

King: [feels guilty] I'll have servants bring your things, you'll sleep here, with me, from now on... I'm not doing this to punish you, I'm doing this for my own safety, and because I don't want to kill you.

You: [sniffles] I understand

King: [can hear your distress in your voice and it makes him feel sick] Through that door is the bathroom, go bathe while I make a few calls.

You: [slinks into the other room]

King: [calls the kitchens to deliver your favorite desserts, and calls the servant quarters to have them bring your stuff to his quarters]

After your shower

You: [exits the bathroom wearing a clean kimono]

King: [lounging on the couch, in front of a rather impressive spread of sweets] Your things have been moved into your new room.

You: I'm getting a room all to myself?

King: no, you'll be sleeping with me, I need to know where you are at all times

You: we'll be sharing a bed?!

King: yes, now please help yourself to these sweets, I did order them for you.

You: you did, why? [Goes directly for your favorite dessert]

King: You were distressed, and this was the only way I could think of to help you feel better... Your distress is understandable, I know this isn't ideal for you, being practically chained to my side... And while I can't let you go, I just wanted you to know that... I don't want you to worry or be afraid of me, because I'm not going to hurt you. I can't risk going back to what I was before Kaido, I won't go back to it.

You: ... You mentioned the government earlier, I take it you were held captive by them.

King: yes, it's why I wear the mask.

You: [can see him practically squirming in his seat] Really? And here I was thinking you wore it because it was a fetish.

King: well it is, but it's not the sole reason I wear it.

You: Sasaki owes me 800 Berry then.

King: you people were betting on me?

You: to be fair we bet on everything, there's not a lot to do on a boat in the middle of the ocean.

King: [sighs dramatically] That's true, but back to the topic at hand, I usually kill people for finding out what I am.

You: but not me, what makes me so special?

King: I don't know.

You: [ruminates for a moment] How did seeing me distressed make you feel?

King: uncomfortable, guilty, I dunno? I just didn't like it.

You: hmm I see, so you don't want to kill me, seeing me upset disturbs you, and you have anxiety if I am out of your sight.

King: believe whatever you want about my reasoning, it changes nothing.

You: ... One final question

King: [rolls his eyes, and crosses his arms] Fine, final question.

You: when you were on the call with Kaido, why did you make me look at you?

King: I didn't like that you were looking away.

You: I see.

King: ... Why did you look away?

You: I could see up your towel.

King: How much did you see?

You: some of your balls, and most of your shaft.

King: [feels arousal and embarrassment well up in him] Are you finished with your food?

You: I believe so.

King: come, I'll show you the bedroom.

You: [follows him and takes it in] Why are there no lights?

King: because it's time for bed [gets settled in bed when he notices you haven't moved] are you coming or are you sleeping on the floor?

You: that bed doesn't look like it'll fit both of us?

King: [rolls his eyes, grabs your arm, and pulls you into the bed up on his chest.] It's just fine, relax and go to sleep, I won't do anything.

You: [rests your weight on him and struggles to get comfortable]

King: [agitated because you're so close to him and he's experiencing new emotions he didn't know he had] Would you stop fidgetingñ

You: I'm trying to get comfortable and avoid kicking you in your dick!

King: [realizes how aroused he is by having you so close] tsk, do it quickly.

The next morning

King:[wakes up empty-handed, panics, and looks around until he sees you]

You: [asleep on his wing, face nuzzled into his down feathers, and has handfuls of his flight feathers.]

King: [mental cogs slide into place and he realizes he's in love with you] Oh fuck [sits up]

You:[awakens with a shriek when the surface below is yanked out from under you]

King: [sits up on the side of the bed with his hands covering his face]

You: [pushes your upper half up onto your palms as you twist to look over at him] What's going on?

King: [ looks over to see you half asleep, messy-haired, and your kimono had loosened in your sleep and was now only closed over your lap and under the obi belt, giving him an eyeful of your shoulders, the center of your chest, and from mid-thigh down]

You: it's like five in the morning, what's going on? [Reaches out and pulls on his feathers]

King: nothing, go back to sleep.

You: [doesn't need to be told twice, and plops back down and wiggles back into a comfortable position]

Bout a week later

King: [has so much pent-up tension he's basically a walking time bomb that everyone avoids]

Kaido: what have you been doing to him to make him so cranky?

You: I have absolutely no clue.

Kaido: well you better do something about it before he snaps and burns down my ship.

You: [ goes to King's room to find him tensed up and hunched over his desk] Kaido wants me to do something.

King: what now?

You: he wants me to fix whatever I've been doing to make you so cranky.

King: [scoffs] You haven't done anything.

You: [climbs into his lap, straddles his thighs, and cups his cheeks] And that might be what I'm doing wrong.

King: [relaxes at the softness in your voice, but pulls your hands away from his mask] This is my problem to deal with.

You: can I please help, I'll do anything.

King: anything?

You: [nods] anything

King: [wraps his hands around your hips, and pushes you down so you're seated on his lap]

You: [feels the heat rolling off the erection trapped in his pants] Oh my

King: [guides your body to gently rock against him] You said you'd do anything, and it's your fault it's like this. Don't you think you should take responsibility?

You: [huffs, but puts your back into grinding down on him] It's been days since I moved in, why didn't you tell me sooner?

King: I was already keeping you captive, [Grunts and starts to pant as he tilts his hips up to get more friction] It felt like I would've been pressuring you into something non-consensual.

You: I see [slows your movements to a halt]

King: [huffs and bucks his hips in frustration, pulling on your hips to get you to move again] Don't fucking stop, please.

You: [goes slow] Tell me, is this just lust?

King: [desperate] It can be anything you want it to be, please I just want you.

You: is this all you want? My body?

King: I'll take whatever you give me, but I'll always want more. I'm so fucking greedy for you. I want it all, I want the sashimi you don't like. I want fun evenings out, and restless nights in with you, only to be followed by quiet passionate mornings with you. I want you to look at only me, smile at only me, to fuck only me. I'll take whatever you give, just please give me this, [Presses his thumbs into the softness on your belly] even if it's only this once.

You: you're in love with me?

King: [slumps pathetically into his chair in defeat, and looks at the ceiling] Fuck ... Yes, I am. I am in love with you, and spending every night with you pressed against me has made me insatiable.

You: [giggles]

King: [flips you off]

Molting Chaos in Onigashima

Featuring: One very grumpy King, a mouthy Queen, and the unholy wrath of stray feathers

Warnings: comedy, molting season, Queen bullying King for it, it's a fanfiction so it may be off canon 😂

Word Count: 700~

crossposted on AO3

a/n: @enththeqqa and I where talking about the idea of King going through a molting season (like birds do), since it would be really bad considering with his size. And well the outcome is this hilarious drabble! Enjoy! (and also go to her blog and check out her beautiful art! She is so talented!)

It started subtly—just a few feathers here and there.

A black plume in the hallway. Another in the mess hall. One stuck in the doorframe of Kaido’s private chamber, to which he stared at for a full five seconds before walking away with a grunt.

But then... the shedding began in earnest.

“YOU GUYS!” Queen’s voice echoed through the main hall, dramatic as ever. “There’s a DAMN FEATHER in my NOODLES! AGAIN!”

King didn’t look up from his report. His massive wings—normally immaculate, regal, and full—looked… rough. Ragged. Patchy. Like a plucked rotisserie bird left half-finished by an impatient chef. Feathers drifted from his right wing with a gentle shake.

Another one floated down into Queen’s soup.

“THERE! RIGHT THERE! It’s happening in real time! This is ABUSE!”

“Don’t eat near me,” King growled without looking.

“Oh sure, I’ll just not eat on this entire island then, since your feathers are in the AIR like cursed confetti!”

To be fair… Queen wasn’t wrong.

Feathers clung to ceilings. Drifted into ventilation ducts. Some unfortunate grunts had them stuck in their teeth. One of the Numbers sneezed and unleashed a cloud of black plumes into the lower barracks.

“Boss,” one of the kitchen staff whimpered to Kaido one morning. “We found a feather… in your sake.”

Kaido blinked at the man. Then blinked again.

He sighed. “...Put a lid on it next time.”

Back in the main hall, King was barely holding it together. Not because he cared about feathers. Not because of the aesthetic shame of looking like a half-naked poultry beast. But because Queen wouldn’t shut up.

“You know what you look like right now?” Queen said, hand on hip, voice bubbling with gleeful malice. “A half-plucked turkey. Or a stressed-out crow that got into a bar fight with a lawnmower. You wanna borrow my coat? No wait—DON’T, I don't want feather dander on it!”

King’s brow twitched. That was it. That was the moment. Without a word, he stood up. A tsunami of loose feathers erupted from his wings as he moved, scattering across the stone floor like a dark snowstorm. Several subordinates screamed. One tripped and fell.

Queen was still cackling—until King threw a whole chair at him.

“WHOA HEY!! I WAS JUST KIDDING!”

“YOU NEVER. SHUT. UP.”

“NEITHER DO YOU, BUT YOU DON’T SEE ME THROWING FURNITURE!!”

“SHOULD I THROW SOMETHING ELSE THEN?!”

“WHAT ARE YOU, BALD AND ANGRY?!”

"DO YOU WANT TO FIND OUT IF I CAN STILL FLY ENOUGH TO DROP YOU INTO THE OCEAN?!"

The floor shook as the two lunged—only for a massive club to slam down between them with a deafening crash. Kaido stood between them, face blank, club still humming with force.

“…Both of you. Stop.”

Silence.

Feathers fluttered around them like ash after a fire.

“…My stew,” Kaido added, voice low, “had three feathers in it last night.”

Queen pointed furiously at King. “HIM. It’s HIM.”

King looked like he wanted to combust from fury and shame. “I can’t control it.”

“Exactly!” Queen barked. “This is a health crisis! I’ve had to wear goggles in the shower!”

Kaido pinched the bridge of his nose.

“King,” he said gruffly. “Go molt somewhere else.”

King stiffened. “…Where.”

Kaido gave him a look. “Do I look like a travel agent? Anywhere. A cave. The roof. Fly to another island if you have to.”

Queen whispered: “If he can still fly.”

The look King gave him could have vaporized granite.

Later that evening, the top of Onigashima was oddly peaceful. The sunset painted the clouds gold, and a lone figure stood brooding on a high outcropping, surrounded by a nest of loose feathers like some kind of sulking dragon-chicken hybrid.

King didn’t speak. Just plucked another feather out and stared at it bitterly.

Below, the crew rejoiced. The air was clear. No feathers in food. No feathers in beds. Queen did a celebratory dance and declared it “Feather Liberation Day.”

They all knew it wouldn’t last forever.

But for now?

Peace. Glorious, feather-free peace.
