Au where Law is a famous painter who has been going through a terrible art block for almost two years and can't produce a single painting, because of that the media and his fans have started to get anxious and pressure him for content but he can't paint anything no matter how hard he tries

In an attempt to get away from this toxic scenario and the extreme pressure to produce more art he moves back to his father's house (Cora-san is alive in this au), a house in the middle of the snow miles away from any city. In this endeavor, he discovers that one of the grandsons of his father's friends, Luffy, has come to visit the region as well after returning from a very long trip. 

The two meet in the only village near both of the houses they are visiting and Law discovers that this weird boy has had the weirdest, batshit craziest life he's ever heard of. It's amazing, Law has never been as entertained listening to someone talk about their life as he is with Luffy, this guy is younger than him but seems to have lived twice as many experiences.

If the stories end up not being only fun but also very inspiring, well, that's for Law to know and for Luffy to never suspect. Law may have found a new muse

IDUNA "HALLIBELL" LEONTE // DEATH MAIDEN he/him. int build prince of death's staff / deathbed dress

Keziah's best friend, who was ultimately forced to stay back in the Lands Between despite tarnishment due to his family. For a time he lived disguised as a finger maiden, feigning grace. When Keziah returned he was only all too eager to assign himself as the other man's maiden despite the falsehoods.

Where Keziah split off to pursue Ranni's plight, Hallibell dove to seek the death mark from her husk. Despite the natural misgivings with Fia's plot and station, he ends up enamored enough with death to utilize its power.

Eventually, both he and Keziah learn of the purpose for maidens as kindling; the latter is unwilling to watch his dear friend die, and despite a willingness for sacrifice, Hallibell would much rather not burn either. The two then turn to drastic measures to kidnap the worst individual they know- White Mask Varre- and after an arduous trek, murder him instead.

Hallibell willingly continues to serve as Keziah's confidant, right-hand man, and bodyguard.

KEZIAH YHARRETT // ELDEN RING // AGE OF STARS he/him. dex build nagakiba / maliketh's set

A former captain of the Redmanes, who was banished from the Lands Between like any other Tarnished. Reunited with his best friend Hallibell upon his return, Keziah tries his hand at being a hero, even though his heart isn't entirely in it. He'd much rather be fishing for gods' sake.

Mercy-killing his former liege and good friend, Radahn, is a pretty huge start to things. Keziah also befriends Yura and gains him as a mentor, before the poor man's untimely demise. His sword is then carried with him unto the end.

Eventually Keziah meets up with the witch Renna, believing he may indeed recognize her… and decides to meddle into her affairs. Upon indeed realizing she is actually Radahn’s sister Ranni, truly alive rather than dead, he soon has to wrestle with the knowledge of her actions. But she believes in him, and he in her, and old feelings they held for each other before the Shattering are renewed again.

And draconic features? Honestly, he just wanted to know what roasted dragon hearts would taste like.
