ᯓ★.ᐟ Luffy will Occasionally take naps every week or so, and when he does he always makes sure you’re with him. He usually likes to lay his head in your lap while you two sit on the head of the sunny, and unfortunately, it's usually not uncommon for a certain chef to come interfering because of jealousy over the fact Luffy gets to nap with you whenever he pleases.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Naps with Luffy are either super short like 5 minutes, or super long like - 3 hours… and if you’re also feeling particularly tired then instead of sleeping on the head of the sunny; you’ll sleep in the men's cabin with one of the lower bunks with him.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Napping with Luffy usually gets very chaotic very quickly unless Luffy is extremely tired out, usually after a long island adventure; He’ll try and start pillow fights, play games, and maybe even try to sing a lullaby (you can imagine how that is…)
ᯓ★.ᐟ But once he eventually tires himself out he’ll wrap his arms around you tightly or be sprawled out all over the bed; making you have to maneuver to find a somewhat comfortable place to sleep with him.
( i actually wrote a short story on this here)
ᯓ★.ᐟ It has become routine to nap with Zoro; After his daily training, he’ll look for you on the sunny and pick you up, carelessly tossing you over his shoulder and bringing you to either the crow's nest or the helm area of the sunny to nap with you. You don't mind this of course, but it was a little surprising at first when he’d just randomly pick you up and take you somewhere. But now you’ve gotten used to it, and even make sure you're not doing anything important when he comes to pick you up.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Naps often get interrupted (even more than luffy) not just because you’re napping with someone, but because your napping with Zoro of all people; and much to no one's surprise they get interrupted by a peculiar blond chef; He’s yelling, sobbing, kicking and screaming over the fact YOU chose zoro and nap every day with him.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Naps with Zoro are long and most of the time he’s got an arm around your shoulder or waist to pull you close (and he also feels better if you're close to him incase something happens so he can protect you first; even though he’ll never admit that to you). His grip on you isn't super tight though unless you fall asleep first which rarely happens - so if he’s asleep for hours and you decide you want to get up and do something else; you can easily stand up and do so.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Naps with Nami are very rare; she doesn't nap much due to being the strawhats navigator and feeling like she needs to be there 24/7 on the watch just in case something happens. But when she does nap; she usually plans it out and if you decide to join her that's even better. It's usually like having her set specific times so that she knows it's during a time of day when Robin (or someone else responsible) can look after navigating the ship properly.
ᯓ★.ᐟ It never usually any other place than her bed during the evenings after dinner because that's usually the calmest time on the ship; waves gently rowing back and forth while Nami lays in your arms against your chest (or vice versa) while she catches up on her much-needed sleep.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Nami is a light sleeper, so that means it's your job not to wake her up and prevent anything from waking her up (mostly Sanji banging on the door begging to be let in). But in the small case she does wake up; she doesn't try and go back to sleep unless she’s very exhausted, but if she’s not; she’ll just turn off her upcoming alarm and get back to her daily routine.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Usopp will Not nap with you when you first start dating, mostly because he’s afraid he’ll embarrass himself in his sleep. But after a good while of being together, he’ll be more than happy to join you in naps, or have you join him.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Naps with Usopp aren't super rare; but also not super common. It usually happens if it's a rather boring day on the sunny or he’s tired out from playing games with Luffy and Chopper all day. He’ll sorta try and (not very) subtly hint at you that he’s gonna take a nap, doing things like dramatically yawning or saying stuff like “Man, it's been a pretty tiring day” then immediately staring in your direction.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Though; the first 30 minutes usually is just Usopp telling you another one of his ‘real’ adventure stories while you lay your head on his shoulder. He prefers to nap indoors like in the aquarium bar or crow's nest while Zoro’s not there, He’ll sit next to you leaning against the wall or cushion of the chair with his arm around you while you lay your head on his shoulders.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Usopp is a pretty normal sleeper when it comes to lightness or heaviness; If he needs to wake up for something then you won't usually have any probably waking him up; that is unless its right after a particularly tiring mission…then he’s gonna be asleep for at least 3 hours after dinner.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Sanji will get on his hands and knees and be your own personal bed for your nap.
ᯓ★.ᐟ But also Sanji himself never naps that often, like ever. But if you want to then he’ll be more than happy to prep an entire room, and ambiance, and physically beat anyone (not the girl's ofc) who dares to make a possible disturbance
ᯓ★.ᐟ But oh you wanna nap with him?! Nosebleed, passed out, giggling, blushing, screaming. It takes him 30 minutes to calm down from just the thought of you wanting to nap with him.
ᯓ★.ᐟ When you do eventually get to napping with him he’s got his arms fully wrapped around you, eyes glued to your face, examining every slightest expression change, to make sure you’re getting enough rest of course! Not because he’s obsessed with you…
ᯓ★.ᐟ His heart is pounding the entire time though, luckily its a bit soothing for you since you had your head laid on his chest
ᯓ★.ᐟ Its routine at this point that Chopper has a daily nap with either you or Robin, but not usually at a set time; he’ll just sorta wait until you're sitting somewhere on the floor/deck of the sunny then come in and sit next to you or in your lap depending on how tired he then falls asleep almost immediately after taking off his hat.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Choppers naps are short, like very short; no more than 30 minutes at most. He prefers it that way as well since he wants to make sure he can tend to immediate wounds if needed; or if the sunny gets attacked then he can be ready to defend it.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Unfortunately; Chopper does still have nightmares sometimes even on these short naps, and it's pretty obvious when it happens cause he’ll way up with his hair on edge and a concerned or fearful expression. You don't usually try and make him talk about them just in case it was based on some traumatic experience, so instead you’ll subtly get him to start talking about whatever current study or treatment he’s interested and he’ll forget he even had a nightmare.
ᯓ★.ᐟ …Robin almost never naps…but on the extremely rare occasion she does; it's because of exhaustion from a long adventure on an island where she might have gotten slightly injured; or just pushed her energy a bit too far.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Robin likes to nap in the aquarium bar or her bed after she’s finished or falls asleep while reading a book. She’s not much of a cuddler either; but she of course likes when your near still so you’ll just sit next to her and she’ll put her hand on top of yours before she falls asleep.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Robins naps usually around 30-45 minutes depending on how tired she is; she’s just not a big fan of napping since she usually has a pretty normal sleep schedule as well. But if she has to she will. You by her side; a warm cup of tea nearby and a quiet, dim environment for the both of you.
ᯓ★.ᐟ Franky really only takes naps when he’s bored or left alone on the ship with all his work finished Though if you start wanting or joining him for naps he will start taking more naps just to spend time with you
ᯓ★.ᐟ He loves if you sleep on his chest, even if it's not the most comfortable for you at times he still likes it. His arms lazily wrapped around your waist while his chest slowly rises and falls as he breathes softly
ᯓ★.ᐟ Naps are either 5 minutes or 2 hours. There is No between whatsoever, and you have no say in how long the naps are; once you start napping w/ him he ain't letting go until he’s awake
ᯓ★.ᐟ But he’s not forcing you to join him, though he will ‘subtly’ hint he’s gonna take a nap and wants you to come along. overdramatic yawn and stretch “I sure am tired! Im gonna take a cozy nap! It would be pretty super to nap with someone though!”
ᯓ★.ᐟ Brook rarely naps, and it's rather uncomfortable when if you decide to join, he has a pretty bone-y chest, arms, everything. And no body heat so it's just like napping with an in-animate object…
ᯓ★.ᐟ He likes your company though! Even though the two of you don't exactly cuddle he still likes it when you’re there, and that goes for everything, after spending so long alone on a ship he’s extremely grateful for every moment he can spend with someone like you
ᯓ★.ᐟ But since naps are so rare, they usually last for a good amount of time, and also happen usually when its storming in the evening, it adds to the ambiance and since he doesn’t like being in the rain much, it's a nice way to pass the time.
A/n: holy shit this took me months im so sorry, i got into a haikyuu fixation mid writing this, then tokyo revengers, then back to haikyuu, then finally im back to one piece….srry- so if you see the writing style change mid fic then uh - yeah…

“HEYYYYY can u do a funny reader? Or a reader that’s normal like fodder level and has a regular life and the characters feel comfy whenever they are around them For one piece 👀”
this is honestly super wholesome and unique 😭🤣🤣🩷
no one piece characters were specified so i did the strawhats + ace 😭😭🤣🤷♀️
👒🔥
there needs to be a better strawhat emoji 😤(😭)
luffy👒👑
honestly his goes perfectly for luffy’s character cuz as we all know, he will adopt ANYTHING. so if your comforting presence was felt and needed wherever you met and he thinks “more of this would make me happy” (as if he’d say it that formal 🗿🗿🤣) then it’s easy as pie for you to join the crew!
i just love how “realistic” it is to be able to become a strawhat even as a regular person. like this dude is so accepting it’s quite LITERALLY harder to not get in/escape (once he wants you). the entire crew has to protest and even then there’s still a chance their getting in! (robin im talking about robin) but ANYYYWAYYYY!
once you got in life probably gets better ngl. like life as a pirate is undeniably fun and freeing as it is threatening and dangerous. :) so as a normal peep you could be screaming with usopp chopper and nami or maybe you’re not easily spooked like robin. either way luffy definitely has his moments where he needs you to be there for him.
he has a lot of hard moments, (⚠️‼️SPOILERS throughout the series up to marineford‼️⚠️, (which sounds obvious for the point i’m making) when the crew splits up, when he’s losing to a stronger enemy, when crewmates leave, when he loses his brother, when his crewmates get kidnapped (he isn’t so much worried as he is angry for this one, but support is always good).
and even for more simpler moments he’s really grateful for you! like when sanji says no food, and you explain and reason with him that everyone’ll literally perish if he eats everything. when his strawhat gets an injury and you comfort him while nami patches it.
now as for you not being very strong that’s no problem! cuz he is!! he’ll support you physically and you to him emotionally! tbh i wouldn’t be surprised if you were often targeted along with nami or robin (regardless of how you identify ofc) bc it’s known that your not exactly the strongest in the group!
luffy would ask usopp to build you something to protect yourself like nami! or maybe tell franky to make you half robot too! and no—that’s totally not self indulgent—and no he didn’t request you to have an automatic food maker in your stomach like franky does with cola. whether you agree to this or not…is up to you..🤣😂😂
a funny reader is someone luffy simply ADORES!! if nothing else we regular people are good at making jokes aren’t we 🗿🤣🤣 what better to do? there’s nothing like a good laugh when you’re bored! in fact luffy probably recruits you to the the ship’s comedian! you’re like buggy, but actually funny! 😂😂 (his words not mine 🤣🤣)
then he later realizes how much a good joke can go a long way. hence you becoming the group therapist! (aka robin’s apprentice) NOT ACTUALLY AHAHA IM KIDDING. but it’s funny tho!
zoro⚔️🗡️
ngl zoro’s opinion on fodder is the definition of neutral. he either doesn’t notice them or just barely does as he cuts them down with him blade. but joining the crew is a whole different situation. he isn’t really one to fight luffy’s decisions once he’s made up his mind. but i could see him questioning why you’re here at first as a possibility
jus sayin 🤷♀️ he may even ask you “and what do you do?” if not then he literally doesn’t say anything. depends on whether you get along with him or not. zoro literally only has smoke with sanji tho (LOL GET IT SMOKE W SANJI??) so unless you’re lookin for a fight you’re probably cool
at most he just notes that he has to protect you. even more so if you don’t get a weapon like nami or smth. whatever your route, if you wanna learn a skill like martial arts to protect yourself that could work too. in fact if you want he could teach you some as well as swordsmanship. you can’t tell me he doesn’t know at least the basics or smth i know it’s two different skills but if this man can literally use no swords style and no one bats an eye..
alr? i don’t wanna hear anything 😭🤣🤣 anyway eventually he does figure out that you’re pretty much just there for vibes. essentially lol 😂 and ngl he’s chill w that. he’s not really used to it since literally everyone on the ship has a role. luffy really doesn’t have interest in collecting lackeys to do biddings as we see when he says (‼️⚠️minor dressrosa spoilers:⚠️‼️) he doesn’t want a really big crew in dressrosa when the strawhat grand fleet is formed. but again zoro isn’t gonna complain.
and the more quality time everyone spends together the more he sees the value. and that it’s not something physical or immediately seen at surface level. you’ve got a really comforting feeling to you. and yeah tbh it probably does come from you being normal. probably because it makes you relatable, even some of the craziest backstories can relate to you in the sense of “stubbing your toe is the worst” LOL-
even before you really settle in the crew and build a strong bond he (as will everyone else—on the crew is on the crew in the strawhat’s book) will protect you fiercely with everything he has. as we all know he’s a tad hard on himself when it comes to being strong enough to protect his crewmates.
and tbh as is luffy now that i think abt it, never realized they were the same in that aspect til just now. as i was saying! from day one he’ll protect you like it’s day one thousand. i can’t even really say “and even more so when you get close” , because he’s never slacked on protecting anyone. but just know this man values you, and wants you safe 👍
obviously zoro doesn’t laugh nearly as often since post time skip. but pre time skip i can see you managing to get him to stifle a few here and there. it’d be cool if that was one of your character gags tbh. like maybe even getting your enemies to laugh. usopp would definitely wanna partner with you to use that as a distraction while he aims his pachinko if you agree 🤣
don’t be deceived though, even if he doesn’t laugh anymore he still finds you funny. or at least humorous, but maybe he just keeps his composure. he calls it noisy, but there’s not hiding the fact that he lives to see his crewmates lively and happy. much better than being sad! even if sometimes annoying..😂
nami🍊💴
this girl will get you the most tbh. she completely understands being a regular person trying to sail the seas with a bunch of psychos while also fighting a bunch of psychos. if you need to confide in her too—you can :) 🤣😊🧡
luckily for her usopp built her a weapon that works for her, so maybe he can do the same for you! even if you for whatever reason prefer to go without one (or don’t :D) you can rely on her to protect you if you’re both stuck in a pinch! as long as you’ll return the favor for her of course 😉
which yes, comes in the form of money, but also being the bait to her plans so she has to risk herself less, remember everyone, her life is most important and then money - nami 😜 i forgot the arc and google isn’t helping <3
in her perspective it feels good to have someone regular join the crew after a spree of strange people joining since chopper..(JUST SAYIN) it may be more possible to get another vote (yours) on team “let’s not go to this island! 😭”
and hey if alls not going well at the very least she’ll make usopp protect her before you, how does that sound? 😁 oh she’s just the sweetest isn’t she? she so is 😊🫶 (regardless of gender btw, favoritism 😎)
she’ll be more willing to go with you when you stop by islands since you actually give her peace of mind instead of taking it 😃 and if you don’t mind/she noticed the rest of the strawhats are also comforted by you, she’ll make you deal with their antics instead.
i could see her opening up to you to tell you more stuff about her past. esp post time skip. she seems to be more at peace about it. especially with her reactions to hachi and jinbe, she was very mature abt the situation tbh. w nami ♡♡ so hey free lore unlocked for you! 😋
if you’re luffy’s type of funny she’ll view you more as a younger sibling. she mostly sighs, huffs or face palms herself, but doesn’t really stop your fun or anything 🤦♀️ sometimes she laughs, like at parties where everything is pretty much light hearted
having an actual funny (and by actual i mean not goofy or prankster type but a well placed joke/sarcastic type) personality she’d probably giggle and agree a lot more. especially if it’s poking fun at someone. now that she can get behind. (feel free to join her and usopp’s tea time where you share weird/funny things you’ve seen on the ship/on islands)
usopp🎯🔫
you being fodder is smth he can lowk relate to. now that’s mostly a mental thing bc he’s shown he’s very capable multiple times even pre timeskip! (like against choo in arlong park) it’s just that he’s building his courage to jump in quicker.
but he definitely still mentally feels like he’s on your level. even if he flaunts and boasts like he isn’t. he does admit to it sm times tho, like his “can’t go on this island disease”. that’s BASICALLY saying he’s scared. it’s good to have another sane member on the crew tho :) (i mean maybe anyway it’s up to you)
you two can exchange stories from your islands n such and bond over them. and yes half of his will be made up, so what? it’s part of the fun! even if you can see right through them he keeps the lie consistent 🤦♀️ that’s just how he is
he won’t lie about kaya or the usopp pirate though! he tells 100% he truth on them. which is adorable <33 and especially about kaya 😉 only if you seem interested anyway. if your not the romance type he’ll catch on and just say how he made her feel better with his stories. if you notice the blush on his cheeks you do, if you don’t you don’t.
he feels extremely proud to retell the story of how he saved the village. and let alone it’s not a lie! hopefully you believe him..he’s told so many lies within the span of time you’ve met you could think he’s full of it already 😅 he’ll get nami and the others to confirm for him. or maybe chopper if she’s angry/busy LOL.
though he might not be the best witness if you’ve figured out he’s gullible to usopp’s lies..🤣🤣 not to mention he heard the story from usopp too. he wasn’t exactly there..it’ll all seem very fishy..next he’ll run to luffy, but by then you may or may not believe him at all 😄😂🤣
like a true strawhat he will protect you with all his might (and lies). he has the strategy (esp pre timeskip) to tell you to run, delay the enemy (typically by setting them on fire) and run to catch up with you. then the both of you go and find whichever of your nakama is a good fighter that’s closest! 💨
if you’re cornered he swallows and stands up. shaking legs and all, he aims his pachinko at them and warns them that he’s captain usopp, brave warrior of the sea with 8,000 men under his command! (good luck yall, hope you’re not just funny but smart enough to come up with a way out of this. he is, and he has a plan, but if it doesn’t work it’ll backfire and upset the enemy—resulting both of your dooms. prepare yourself.)
being funny is a sure fire way to befriend any of the strawhats pretty much. most of em (stoic ahh zoro. stoic ahh jinbe) but at least usopp is indeed included in that “most” he loves to prank, joke around and be silly. as mentioned many times throughout these hcs you most certainly get dragged into the goofy trio because of this trait. maybe he’ll set up the trap and you’ll deliver the punchline when someone sets it off. LOL
have fun torturing everyone you two, because i’m sure even luffy and chopper aren’t safe from The BRAVEEEEE NORMIEEEEES!!! (yeah you’re still working on the name it’ll get there..🗿😂😂)
sanji🥄🧑🍳
sanji simply protects fodder. once he deems you a decent person he’ll protect you whether you’re on his nakama or not. and you joining the crew only enhances that. now he’ll prioritize you over other fodders! you’ve unlocked-🙌SPECIAL fodder🙌 status <33 🤗😄 hooray!!
“regular people” “weird people”, doesn’t really make or break anything to him! i mean he does find weirdos..weird! but he generally doesn’t really care outside insulting them a bit 😀 thankfully for you you’re both regular AND his crewmate! so none of that happens to you :)
if you’re an annoying masc presenting you get the usopp treatment since he doesn’t ALWAYS hit him (like luffy) but still gets annoyed w him. if you’re a regular masc presenting you’re pretty much either your own category or chopper treatment if your more playful. if you’re fem leaning of any kind it’s obvious you get the simp treatment. (sanji you’re so annoying w the way i always have to add gender ever so slightly w u bc you’re such a simp. not really you’re awesome, but BRO- 🗿 - a message, from me, to sanji)
honestly him being kind to fodder goes hand in hand w his background ifykyk but his mom was also a kind person so not only does he make it a point to be one too but he also just is naturally! even with his backstory and being crazy strong for the most part he does fit “normal” criteria!
and in that case he’s understandable to you and you are to him! which is also a comfort as the strawhats as a whole are. but the fact that he can count on your steady aura when needed is something he’ll never take for granted. for you to just be regular and not overwhelming. you’d probably give good advice too, there are just as many things that people can learn from those on the seas that aren’t the most powerful as you can from said most powerful.
and being able to keep him emotionally stable is bliss to this man. if you know what arc he’ll need it in then you know. all i’ll say. 😗🤷♀️ you and luffy being his emotional support: 🤝 bringing it back around to him being crazy strong your duo is kinda like luffy’s in that sense. he will provide physically and you mentally. which is so cute i love strawhat dynamics. it’s as sanji himself once said! “I'll do what you can't do, and you do what I can't do.” - enies lobby sanji :) (lol so many quotes in these hcs 🤣)
sanji is pretty silly himself when he wants to be. a lot of the times he’ll get mad and kick luffy if it’s stupid. or simply smirk at their antics. but my favorite piece of evidence he’s just as goofy is when he said “it bugs me when they get all worked up over nothing” as he took off his shoes and flipped into the ocean of clouds in skypiea 😂😂💗 IT WAS SO CUTE 😭😭
point is! he definitely joins in on your jokes and silliness occasionally. especially if they’re actually jokes! or at a party :) then everyone let’s loose 😋 don’t even get me started on pre time skip! everyone’s literally teenagers for the most part 🤣🤣 and robin’ll never stop the chaos from goin 🗿😂 (nor brook). so yeah, sanji joins in and enjoys the theatrics. who wouldn’t tho? if they were a strawhat :]
vivi🦚🐥
now she’s not fodder but we do know this girl canonically cares for every single one of them. (💓) even if you’re not one of her citizens! (though it’d be cool if you were LOL, it’d high key go right w the plot jus sayin) so she does her best to make you feel comfortable (which is ironic i know because you’re the one with the comforting presence, but she seems like type to return the favor anyway)
you two are probably like nami and vivi (regardless of gender i’m talking abt duo vibes here, or if you want another example maybe nami/vivi and usopp) you two are actually regular people who think rationally and bond over the moments you have where you’re not out ruled by adventure crazed maniacs
even if you are indeed one of those maniacs if you’re regular you’re probably way easier to handle than luffy. 😂 she’d love to share culture differences and traditions n such. generally getting to know you better.
your comforting presence would mean so much while on the trip to alabasta. especially when nami goes down. she was already worrying about enough and now one of her friends isn’t feeling well. her loving caring heart could definitely benefit from your stable one 🩵 (again, comparing you to luffy here, it’ll at least feel like it 🤣)
so yeah! being regular doesn’t bother her at all and she actually prefers it that way! the last thing they need is more crazy ppl on the ship ngl..(unfortunately, vivi, luffy went on to adopt five more)
vivi isn’t the strongest on the crew, but she’s one of the most empathetic, meaning even if she’s weak she’ll do everything in her power and more to protect and/or safe you. as we see with her entire kingdom <33 (i love you vivi ☺️) she brings out the peacock slashers, and tells you to run on karoo to safety/one of your crewmates for help
dont worry about her (her words not mine) she isn’t going down with out a fight - vivi, the brave one. (that’s a quote i made up btw but it sure is true) she would even fight crocodile for you if it came to that. she was already madder than mad at the man for all he’s done, she don’t care if she’s gonna win or lose if he’s threatening your life she’ll at least make sure you get away or SMTH (ok rq, high key- crocodile was vivi’s arlong 😭)
being a jokester is right up her alley. laughter is the best medicine and this applies so much in one piece (looking at you luffy liberator 👀😊💖) + this girl most definitely needs it while she’s goin through it. it’ll take things off her mind and apply ease to her tension. your jokes + warm company = a bond quickly built between you and the strawhat princess 👸💛
chopper🥼🪴
chopper can handle regular people well, (once he warms up to them anyway) and finds abnormal people like franky to be cool, so no matter what boat you’re in he’s pretty much okay with you. especially after he joined the crew, meeting many kind people, and goin through many adventures that helped him open up and become more brave
he can certainly handle a regular person now!! >:D really he’s just curious to see what you’re like what your interests and intentions are. heavy on intentions, since you’re a regular person you could be anybody! he’s slightly wary at first, but the soothing reassurance of you constantly acting normal doesn’t let him keep his guard up long :)
bonus if you’re just as scared of adventures as he, usopp and nami. and even if you aren’t he admires you! like luffy! only your normal…😂 whenever he wants to read, play chess or take a nap he comes to your uplifting, consistent presence. (which is accurate for a reindeer tbh cuz animals esp deers don’t really come up to to ppl like that).
and with that being said you’re ofc open to join him and robin in any of their activities. if you do you’re sure to get smarter! learning facts abt history and herbs everyday! :) if you accept you often meet up in the library and aquarium room :D
chopper will do his absolute best to protect you even if he’s scared. even when he knows he can’t win he’ll buy you time to get another one of your crew members. so hurry! run! (💗) he’s not a bad fighter at all though! even more so post time skip when he gets kung fu point! at least that one is fighting centered! worst case scenario he’ll use monster point so you’ll need to be quick!!
anddd in an even worse case scenario if you get hurt, he’s a doctor! even if he may forget for a second he’ll bandage you up real good and take you back to merry/sunny! and make sure to protect and watch over you properly this time!! he’s promises!! 🫡😭🩷
chopper LOVES that you’re funny!! that’s literally right up his usopp’s and luffy’s alley. he and luffy are the ultimate younger brother’s, so if he finds something you do funny he’ll copy it (like he does with usopp and luffy, esp pre time skip)
he often wants to play with you. ngl you high key get omitted into the goofy trio simply because you’re hilarious. so they’ll always be bothering you to play and make jokes with them. 🩷🩷
robin📖📜
robin also has no opinion on fodder. if you’re helpful you are, if you’re a nobody you are. if she notices you she does. if she doesn’t, she doesn’t. for the most part the most she’s ever interacted with them is simply asking for directions or clues of what she’s trying to find. which we all know she’s good at <33
however you joining the crew automatically makes you important. and whatever you did to convince luffy you should join is valid to her! especially since she herself didn’t intend on joining until luffy left her with no other place to go!
she is very curious on what a normal life would be like. obviously she knows it to some degree. but more so what would having a loving/regular home be like. is it boring? living a regular life? perhaps that’s why you agreed to join? to spice things up?
she’d ask you to write about it, your life story, so she can compare it to hers. if you just joined she won’t go into super detail about hers. which would be kinda triggering if you agreed to write down yours for her. but she’ll make it a thing to give you bits and trinkets of it the longer you’re on the crew.
she knows all about how pirates can betray one another, having done so herself. and if you’re new that leaves more room for a detached breach of trust. especially in the case you get singled out and interrogated by other pirates or marines to safe your own. she could see that, very plausible.
but if you ask her why she continues to tell even bits and pieces about herself anyway, she’ll say it’s simply because she trusts you. as simple (and ironic) as it is, it’s true. there’s something about the fact that you’re so regular that relaxes her. it’s reassuring in the weirdest way, contradicting the scenario she just laid out.
not only that though, she trusts luffy- LOL. and by that i mean to drag you back because he’s never let a single member he’s deemed his nakama go. 😀 somehow that reminds me to talk about her protecting you! dw she’ll do it well.
as long as she can see you she’ll do everything in her power to make sure you’re safe. and with many hands that task isn’t very daunting. :) but hey, if you don’t like the sound of spines snapping synchronistically i’d advise you cover your ears. just my two cents 🤷♀️
she finds you endearing if you truly have joined the goofy trio. if not she still does, no matter your sense of humor. sure hope you can handle hers tho! (at least what seems to be it, no one fully understands that morbid mind..) she’d be much obliged to hear witty/intelectual jokes. especially (respectful) ones about history!! :)

franky has similar views to robin when it comes to you being fodder. LOL 😂 he’s honestly chills w it. when do we ever hear him complain abt his own crewmate’s ways? literally never..to a certain degree that goes for everyone! even if they do get annoyed by it no one genuinely tries to change anyone
which i love abt the strawhats ♡ and as we can physically see, franky is the LAST one worried abt how weird or normal someone is 🤣🤣 if you wanna spruce up your character he’d have no qualms abt helping you with that! but he will ofc agree with luffy’s suggestion to turn you into a robot.
it just adds character in itself yk? say you like ice skating, but can’t really on the ship right? well, why wait until a winter island?? you can just turn your feet on skating mode that shoots out water and freezes it, as blades come out the soles of your feet and BOOM! you can ice skate!! doesn’t that sound awesome? (que luffy agreeing and “wowing” in the background)
no seriously tho it’s pretty refreshing to remember what it was like to be normal through you. the good ol days where tom and kokoro would encourage his career and to stop arguing with his brother.
as seen in the show this man is a man in tune with his emotions. he’d shed a tear (or few, or totally ball with snot) and hug you, 🫂 thanking you for bringing back such memories. no, he didn’t lose them, but remembering them just now felt really good. 😂💗
after that interaction he takes protecting you very seriously. as he would any of your crewmates tbh. even if that hadn’t of happened you’re still under their wing now, and he will go to bat for his people.
your funny side is definitely smth he can get behind and in fact join in on. even with a straight face. franky is a ridiculous, goofy and 100% shameless character who loves a good silly moment. he will indeed join in on all your jokes, antics and anything inbetween. making his own all the while—yeah he’s cool with it. and of course, chopper usopp and luffy are laughing, clapping and adding to it all.
brook💀🩻
being fodder has never hurt anyone! :) i mean except the fodder themselves..but he won’t let you get hurt!! he’s pretty new to the crew himself but he most certainly won’t let anything happen to you! in all his years of combat experience he’ll use everything he’s got to protect you!!
in luffy’s honor and name 😊🫂 (i find it so cute how much he respects him, he even called him luffy-san at first, everyone really!) tbh he’s one of the ones that doesn’t really ever mention that you’re fodder. ngl you high key get put into the weak trio when it comes to combat related things
dont even get me started if you really don’t have any form of self defense. now you really just stick to someone strong, or watch the ship. probably with chopper (or nami or usopp depending on who wins rock paper scissors bc all three of them were too scared to go) brook would also be willing to stay behind and keep you company though! you could sip tea or he could play music for you <3
or you could get a tour! so lucky you if you’re too scared to go too! if you aren’t and are adventurous i’m sure luffy wouldn’t mind. everyone would just know to look out for you :) it’d be cute if brook volunteered to do it specifically. maybe for your piece of mind or perhaps just out of kindness. i could see him doing that though.
his old crewmates were pretty much regular. and if you ask me, in general he seems to be one of the ones with the most experience with regular ppl tbh. him and nami are pretty tied. the rest do too but they were either also unique/not fodder or had an important role to the story. aka not fodder- LOL. anyway.
brook pretty much gets you and your mindset. not questioning you or anything like that, he’s more so interested in helping you settle in and feel apart of the crew. and getting to know you personally/your interests! but emphasis on getting settled in. he had to find his own way, and even asked robin for advice if i remember correctly, and if you remember 🤣
as i’ve already mentioned if nothing else brook is set on protecting his people. i mean after what happened i couldn’t imagine him letting that happen in front of him again, only to an enemy. awful. he could never, he’ll protect you with every bone in his body! except..that’s all that’s left! YOHOHOHOHO!! (get it? it means he’ll protect you with everything he has! YOHOHOHOHO!! DOUBT SKULL JOKE!!!😂😂)
now as you can see i’m already ona roll making double skull jokes. if you’re a comedian so is he because he loves his skull jokes. if you wanna take it there the two of you could probably bug everyone, bouncing jokes back and forth with each other. it’d be fun to even make a game or competition out of it. and luffy chopper and usopp are making bets over the last pastry sanji made on it 🥮🥐
jinbe🐋🦈
being regular definitely helps jinbe settle in and balance out between the strawhat madness. if nothing else he knows he can come to you for peace of mind and reasoning. or just to explain the chaos 🤣🤣 (spoiler jinbe..there is no method to their madness 😂😂 and i’m predominantly talking about luffy here..)
he’d enjoy doing or helping whatever hobbies you may have since they don’t involve/end up receiving a punch from nami at the end. tbh i feel like he and nami most need comforting reader 😭🫶 he likely also asks you about how things normally go on the ship and routines so he can get in line with everyone else 😊
you being regular/fodder really doesn’t phase him. at most he’s concerned for your safety. he knows these seas and it’s treacherous waters, and more troublesome than that—who roams them. he has trust in his captain and your crewmates however. he may not have been on the crew long but he does advise one thing: “stay by at least one of us at all times, surely we’ll protect you.”
and he most certainly will! if there’s one thing he can do it’s fight! and two steer a ship! :) so don’t worry and hang on tight to any incoming waves and stay close by him when a foe is near, for jinbe is here! LOL I HAD TO!! 🤣🤣 seriously though if you ever wanna learn fish man karate he’d be open to teaching you!
im sure he found out the pleasant surprise that robin had been taught by none other than koala so quality time for you, robin and jinbe would be instructor jinbe with robin lending a helping hand! 😊🫶 NO FR THO- 😂 she’d be the assistant/giving pointers on what helped her! she’s always been a natural quick learner anyway so i’m sure she could offer some advice!
he’s a lil stoic but he definitely knows how to let loose and have fun! especially when he’s drinking 😅 so mostly during parties is it that he laughs at your comedy. when he’s already giddy anyway 😭 not to say you can’t ever get him to crack a smile with a quick witted one! i think you could! 😉😊
ace🔥🏴☠️
being fodder is completely fine with ace. he’s one of the ones i can see you being interested in each other from jump or just as friends since he’s actually polite and not super crazy 😂😂 he’s reckless yes..but he has his head on straight. common sense, the thing many pirates abandon in search of the one piece. (when you can have both…you don’t have to throw common sense away……in fact i think it might help you..please keep it..)
regardless of where or how you and ace meet he’s sure to be his charming and (canonically 😏) handsome self! thus you won’t feel weak in the sense of him boasting or threatening you. and it’ll in fact give you space to feel safe around him, and less like he’s a pirate even! cuz pirates will immediately let you know if your life means little to them. but ace is reasonable enough to only want someone dead when they’ve hurt those he cares about!
speaking of which!! ace is very proud to protect you!! which i must say i find super adorable ☺️❤️🔥 he knows he’s strong and if there’s one moral he stands by it’s protecting his people. which most definitely includes a valuable member like you! so what if you’re fodder? your strength isn’t in being able to move mountains physically, but mentally. because if he never told you, know that the sense of normalcy in your aura, habits and mannerisms definitely ground him in a way he needs ❤️🔥☀️
being regular is ok w him!! ace he sees u as special even for you or others don’t. the ability to comfort and remain kindhearted on these seas isn’t one you come by everyday. it’s not like he has standards for who can and can’t be his friend outside of if you’ve already made an enemy out of yourself! it doesn’t so much matter if you were green, nakama is nakama 🙌🧡
being funny is definitely smth he likes abt you. it probs reminds him of luffy. not to say that you’re immature, or anything like that. just one of those things that you find in two different people you like and it’s just kind of special from your pov 🤗 he likes how you liven things up!
there’s so many gruffy personalities on the whitebeard pirates ship, someone ought to bring some sunshine :) ☀️💛 (ironic coming from ace isn’t it? he doesn’t even know 😂🩷) i’m sure they still love to party and such, they’re pirates after all it’s what they do! it’d be great if you put on whatever your style of comedy and jokes on as a show for them! like how luffy sticks chopsticks up his nose and in his mouth 🗿🤣🤣
if you do choose to do this, or even just being able to have the whole squad laughing with your jokes (LOL) he’d love and feel proud of you for it. the camaraderie between those pirates is thicker than thieves, but there’s nothing like a good joke to bring them even closer!! <33
Y'all mind if I fuck around with an AUfanfic concept with Brook and undead!reader with some type slow burn pining 'Jack and Sally'. Like Brook's a skeleton, reader might some type of ragdoll-zombie??? A frankenwoman??? Still working on what exactly honestly. But definitely drawing inspiration, from all the best spooky babes in media I can summon for undead!reader. ((Main inspos are; 'The Bride of Frankenstein' and 'The Corpse Bride', Sally, Morticia Addams, Delores from 'Beetlejuice Beetlejuice' and Vicky from monster prom. The inspos of PRE!timeskip undead!reader)).
But this will be known, Absalom will PROFUSELY be an enemy and former 'ex-husband'. Like dawg you already know he forced her into marriage. THIS MF WEIRD,,, OF COURSE I'M NOT GONNA SIDESTEP THE SHIT THAT HAPPENED IN THRILLER BARK WITH POOR NAMI🤢😞, YOU ALREADY KNOW PEOPLE LIKE THAT AND HE'S PROBABLY DONE MORE TERRIBLE STUFF😟😮💨
Also I wanna go hard and write small blurbs of smoke sessions with Brook(I didn't know other people liked that gif of him smoking ALOT😏🤭) I'll try my best to schedule post blurbs, imagines and HCs, when I get the chance. I really feel passionate and excited to share my about my AUfic when I can. For now, thanks and stay beautiful y'all Brook-babes😛✌️
But I can't exactly make anything rn,,, I'm kinda homeless moving city to city. I'm sorry I got a lot on my plate guys😭💀
Crewmate POV: When you first met him, you were too surprised at his ability to walk and talk as a skeleton to interact with him normally. After some time teaming up together, you noticed a strange appreciation beginning to form in you.
You and Brook bonded over classical music and also 70's oldies. You asked him to play a couple tunes that he knows and that impressed him right off the bat and made him happy!
Sometimes you'd sing along, and even though you didn't like your own voice, he was just happy that you were singing with him.
Your first kiss with Brook was after sharing a private cup of tea together and eagerly listening to more of his backstory in candlelight. You sat hip to hip with him and he smelled like whiskey and coffee scented fragrance. He looked into your eyes with those silly dark holes you oddly found adorable and leaned in and you felt the touch of invisible lips.
You kissed him back passionately and felt a warm and slick invisible tongue gently wrestling your own. This surprised you, but after a pause you just went in for more.
His moans are beautiful to the ear, and they make you want to top him.
*****He has no muscles, so how does he walk, talk, and otherwise move? *I imagine it's the same as a ghost forming and disappearing.. that's how his non-existent parts come and go lol. *****
You're the only crewmate who knows for sure what his kisses feel like... and the heat of his literal boner.
When he's excited for you he's shy and usually tries to hide it or "get over it," but he cannot contain his blushing and everyone notices it.
When you finally pull his lanky form to somewhere private, you start by passionately kissing him and his warm ghostly lips come back.
He likes it when you gently press him against the wall or his bed. Sometimes you hold his wrists down and he's a blushing mess.
Sometimes you tease him by grinding your hips on him until his pants start to push up against you. He begins to whimper quietly as you lovingly pleasure the bulge.
Brook is almost too long for you to throat. Once you're down on him, he takes the liberty of guiding your pace with his hand on your head, like he's directing the timing of a song.
He will also put his hands on your hips as you straddle him, and guide your rhythm from there.
When he wants you, (which is surprisingly often) he will act extra gentlemanly. He carries you bridal style and kisses you up and down like you're both Gomez and Morticia Addams. He doesn't mind the rest of the crew seeing his affections.
Brook will often pleasure you with his skilled ghost tongue~ humming and laughing quietly as you hold in your moans. You grab a fistful of his hair when you're about to scream and sometimes he doesn't care and the whole ship hears.
When you're in Chopper's care after being hurt in combat, he always rushes to see you and keep your spirits up. He hums a sweet melody, resting his head on you so you feel his soft curls on your cheek. He will sit next to you for hours, telling stories, listening to you, and sipping tea.
At night you sneak into his bunk and you and Brook take turns nightly on who is the big spoon. He appreciates your warm body, and misses you dearly when you want to sleep alone.
He is very respectful when you need space and is very good at letting you vent.
That said, he is technically a lot older than you.. so he tends to give you advice on your personal hardships. One of his only faults is talking like a guardian more than a lover at times when you get moody. He will typically side with you when you argue with someone else, but he will gently pull you aside later to explain why he may disagree and what you need to work on yourself.
You and him tend to get into shenanigans: randomly dancing and singing. Whether or not you're afraid of ghosts, you try your best to comfort him :')
He is an amazing lover with an old soul. He writes you poems and songs, he gives you flowers on all special occasions, and dances with you too! He even plays board games and fills out crossword puzzles with you.
Of course he steals your panties! (Unless you give them to him) 😂 Now that the two of you are so close, he doesn't dote on anyone but you, and you enjoy it very much <3
I loved this kind of post you made. Could you please write it again but with Law, Brook and Zoro?
Thank you <3
Hi! Thanks i hope you love this too ♡
Partner requirements pt.2
Headcanon with Law, Brook & Zoro
Note: this is just for fun and from my point of view! What other characters would you be interested in?
Part. 1
Law
I think Law would like someone opposite to his personality. Someone tender and sweet to look at, but at the same time looks mature. Someone with a personality that brings out the best in his, but only in privacy. Patience a lot of patience. He wouldn't date someone really stupid either. Because intelligence is something important to Law. Don't necessarily have to be a bookworm, but he ouldn't even strike up a conversation with someone hollow. The other person must demonstrate a trace of intelligence, any type of intelligence.
He would also date someone with hobbies, and maybe share one together. Like discovering pet friendly cafes or collecting something specific. It's something Law would enjoy doing with his lover.
Independence and respect for his times of loneliness are necessary. Sometimes Law needs to be completely alone, so his lover should respect that. But also avoid that being alone does not mean feeling alone. Nor should he isolate himself in the intrusive thoughts. It's complicated and leads to many discussions, which the person he love must have a lot of patience and understanding. Law has been through a lot. That does not justify the fact that sometimes he can be really hurtful, so knowing how to set limits and conversation are essential to maintain a stable relationship.
His lover must remind him through words and actions that is loved. And understand that Law will rarely express his feelings in words, but that he constantly says he loves through small acts of service.
Look, if he finds someone with those qualities and abilities, believe me, Law won't care what the other look like, how identify, the gender, where come from, the past or whatever. That's not relevant to Law. Connection and compression is.
Brook
Melomana. Music has to be important in his lover's life, don't necessarily have to be a musician too, just appreciate good music. And the tea. Brook likes to have tea at five o'clock; herbal tea and cookies. Those are important requirements.
Honestly, I can only see him dating a straight cis woman - he's 90 years old, guys. But I don't think she should be a traditional woman, at all. Brook likes bold and sexy women who have great self-confidence. Sensual in the most elegant and sophisticated sense of the word, not in the vulgar sense. Brook is a sophisticated man, so the person next to him must be too. Although I can see him next to someone simpler or more risky with his personal style.
I also think it should be fun and a little kinky. Be quick to understand his humor and be able to follow his jokes. But she must also be able to behave like a serious lady at the right times.
Physically? Don’t think he's too interested, but like I said, he must have a sensual side that piques his interest. He definitely likes them younger -90 y/o, again-, but mature women have an advantage.
His lover is his best friend and confidant. After all those years in a terrible and terrifying loneliness, Brook would never be far from his loved one. He has a great fear of the same thing happening again. So his lover must assure him that she will always be there with him. For this reason, he would not date someone who is disloyal or who generates some type of mistrust or instability.
Don't have to follow him to the sea and his crazy adventures as Straw Hat, can wait for him on an island. Brook would never force her to follow him, so trust and loyalty are extremely important issues that his partner must fulfill.
Hanging out with Brook is fun and the person the skeleton gives his heart -figuratively because he doesn't have one- to will never feel any doubt about his love.
Zoro
It doesn't matter if you are a woman or a man, tall or short, brown, black or white or whatever. Zoro doesn't give a shit about your physical appearance as long as know how to defend alone. Skill is an essential requirement, Zoro would never date someone weak. Mental strength is just as important. I don't think the swordsman could stand being carried away by his emotions, someone who was too sensitive and crybaby. Must be independent and self-sufficient. And brave.
But above all, must be loyal. We know that loyalty is a Zoro word, it represents him as a person.
Understand that both are individuals with their own autonomy. Zoro doesn't need anyone, so it's a privilege when he wants someone by his side.
The person who decides to accompany him in life must keep in mind that his dream and his loyalty to Luffy come above all. Otherwise, it won't hurt Zoro to say goodbye.
Yes, sometimes he is a very cold man. But it's only to protect his precious ones - his crew and friends -, and himself. Distrust everyone and everything. Earning the co-trust is hard work but it is worth it. This way could get to know his fun and relaxed side.
His lover may be someone more outgoing and hyperactive than Zoro, but he would like to take a nap with his lover. Also share drinks if both drink, and if not, have him accompany while he drinks.
Zoro is a territorial and slightly possessive lover, and he will not deny it. Scary dog privilege. He likes that his lover know how to defend self but still let him do it. Feed his ego.
request: Can I request a little scenario where Brook (from OP) organizes a little romantic date for his S/O, please?
warnings: silly goofy, i loved to make this as one piece as possible, one joke about eyes popping out (literally just that, no g*re description), brook accidentally sets himself on fire, not proofread; gender neutral reader + requests are open ! check pinned post for requesting rules
im soooooooo sorry i took so long to post this! it was very fun to write and i hope you enjoy it ♡ obrigada demais por enviar essa ask meu chuchu!!
he had no idea where to start. he loves you, he loves you as much as he loves music, but he truly didn't know what to do. here's the thing: it has been YEARS since he had an actual date with someone. god, he didn't even see any person for 50 years while he was lost in the florian triangle; his romance skills were really rusty.
when the idea of organizing a date night appeared in his mind – nami gave him the idea –, he went around the crew asking for tips on what he should do to impress you. from "all you can eat buffet" to "why would i know", everyone had different answers to his question. surprisingly, sanji was the one with the best idea: a candlelight dinner.
as the night came, the table was ready. a small vase with a rose stood in the middle of it, a single candle making the mahogany towel even darker. compared to the simplicity of the table, the floor was a mess. countless candles were lit against the hard wood of the ship and any surface that was available in the room; sanji murmured that those things were clearly a safety hazard when he went to deliver the dinner, bur brook ignored his words.
when the skeleton lead you inside the room and took your blindfold off – you were a little scared when he begged for you to wear it –, you were left completely speechless. you mouth dropped and your eyes darted from the tall man to the scenery in front of you. you let yourself be pushed to sit on the chair and, after he sat down across from you, you murmured:
"shouldn't we blow out some of the candles?"
he simply chuckled and assured you that it wasn't a problem; everything there was perfectly safe and he made sure of it.
it didn't take long for you to be proven right. after you both finished eating the pasta sanji prepared – brook tried to pretend that he was the one that made it – and were just enjoying each other's company, talking about random topics, a faint smell of smoke reached your nostrils. you tried to ignore it and keep looking at your boyfriend, but a clear thin smoke thread started to come from somewhere under you two.
brook seemed to not notice, but he followed your stare as you looked down. if he had eyes, they would've popped out of their sockets; the bottom of the towel started to catch on fire. you tried to remain calm, it wasn't a big deal, it's not like that wasn't something you could easily put off just by stomping on the cloth. unfortunately, your boyfriend seemed to have different thoughts.
with a quick and rough movement, brook pulled the towel from the table, shaking it around so the fire would be put out. after he, apparently, succeeded at extinguishing the fire that was starting, the skeleton sighed deeply; relief was starting to settle in his bones when you noticed another trail of smoke appearing. this time, from his head.
"brook, you–"
"i'm sorry for this, my love! we can carry on with our date now." he noticed your worried face and tilted his skull. "what is wrong, my darling?"
"your hair is on fire." you pointed at the top of his hair and he seemed to freeze for a second.
when your words settled in, he started screeching at the top of his lungs. before you could help him and take the fire yourself, brook slammed the door open and runned to the deck of the ship. all the crew members that were close also started screaming. while luffy and chopper started to hit brook in an attempt to put out the fire, franky appeared with water and threw it on the boys. sea water.
while your boyfriend was whining on the floor, his strength leaving his bones for a moment, sanji appeared next to you, lighting up his cigarette. "he had good intentions with the date. he asked all of you about it."
