I was reading pervert Shanks and I think he would be like an unintentional pervert with fem!Buggy:
Someone throws a bucket of dirty water on top of him and the crew forces him to go take a bath. He does not see the sign that says fem!Buggy is taking a bath and he sees her naked. The crew has to help him get on board as she threw him off.
He sees some clothe flying by and grab it only to see that it was fem!Buggy panties that had flow over. Fem!Buggy sees him staring at his panties and he get 2 black eyes
He is trying to grab some buns from the next table without even looking up from his plate and he grabs her chest. The crew have to hold her before she stabs him
Fem!Buggy is wearing a skirt as they are on an Island and Shanks trips, try to grab onto something and he pulls her skirt down. Shanks is found tied and hanging down a tree
LOL I loved the idea, Poor Shanks!
[The crew stops at a beach of a random island . Buggy is changing behind a makeshift curtain on the beach, since the ship is being fixed]
Teen!Shanks, walking backward while arguing with Gaban: No, I swear the map said—
[Teen!Shanks bumps straight into the curtain, yanking it down. Fem!Buggy stands there in just her bra and panties.]
Buggy,Screaming: SHANKS!!!
Teen!Shanks, spinning around, hands up: I was walking backward! Total accident, I didn’t even know you were there!!
Rayleigh, covers Fem!Buggy with his coat: That’s the fifth “I was walking backward” excuse this month.
Gaban, laughing: Kid, just tie a rope to yourself next time.
Fem!Buggy, throwing her boot at Shanks: I’ll make you walk backward off the plank!
——
[Rayleigh is teaching blindfold sword practice. Teen!Shanks is blindfolded.]
Rayleigh: Swing left—
Teen!Shanks, swinging wildly: Like this?
[His wooden practice sword hooks Fem!Buggy’s skirt and yanks it clean down as she walks by.]
Fem!Buggy, yelping: SHANKS YOU BLIND IDIOT!!!
Teen!Shanks, ripping off the blindfold, horrified: I couldn’t see anything! It was training, pure accident!
Gaban, wiping tears from laughing: Training to strip the clown, apparently.
Fem!Buggy, holding her skirt up, knife out: Next time I’ll blindfold you permanently… with your own intestines!
——
[ The crew is studying a map on deck. fem!Buggy leans over the table, causing it to tilt slightly]
Teen!Shanks, reaching across: Let me see the—
[He accidentally leans right into her, face planting against her chest.]
Fem!Buggy, shrieking: GET OFF ME!!!
Teen!Shanks, pulling back fast: The table wobbled! It was an accident, I swear!
Roger, laughing: Bold move, Shanks! Going straight for the map’s best view!
Rayleigh, facepalming: Captain…
——
Fem!Buggy, pulling a knife: DIE!!!
[The crew piles on to hold her back.]
Roger: what did Shanks do now?
Teen!Shanks, trying to escape: it was an accident! I swear!
Rayleigh: Grabbed Buggy’s Behind and said he was reaching for his sword.
Roger, curious: Was he?
Rayleigh: he swears it but at this point I’m done trying to believe him.
——
[Nighttime. teen!Shanks is once again tied upside-down in a tree but this time cover in bruises]
Teen!Shanks: Captain… they were all accidents…
Roger: laughing below: Best entertainment on the seas! Buggy, leave him there a bit longer, builds character!
Fem!Buggy, smirking: Gladly. Swing well, pervert.
Roger, to the crew: Ah, the youth… Rayleigh, remember when we were this stupid?
Rayleigh: in your case there is no “were”.
Roger: HEY!-
Rayleigh, ignoring him: Bugs, how about we put fire under him to see if it helps with his “character development”?
This post inspired me to share some old thoughts I once had about a Buggy clone/double. The idea was created a long time ago and completely forgotten, but this post somehow brought those memories back. :)
There are two main stories and one smaller idea at the end. :]
For reasons nobody understands, Buggy suddenly splits into two separate versions of himself.
The first Buggy is calm. He always wants a cigarette, looks exhausted, and is incredibly lazy. He doesn't really care about anything or anyone. If he dislikes someone, he won't waste time arguing or figuring things out—he'll simply kill them. Though, most of the time, he'll probably be too lazy to even do that.
At the same time, he acts as a sort of brake for the second Buggy.
The second Buggy is theatrical, loud, cheerful, and completely insane. (Their clothes are different as well.)
This Buggy kills with a smile and finds amusement in almost everything. He's more cruel and creative when it comes to torture and slow, painful deaths. Though, to be fair, both of them enjoy watching others suffer.
If he doesn't like something, he'll simply go, "Nope," dodge the problem, and continue on his way. He can easily get carried away, which often leads to questionable decisions. Since he's bored most of the time, he might invent an entire persona for himself and commit to it for days or even weeks.
Despite his madness, this Buggy is actually the more reasonable one—at least until his emotions and adrenaline completely take over.
Both Buggies are calculating. The difference is that one is too lazy to finish thinking through his plans, while the other constantly gets distracted by whatever catches his attention.
Overall, they get along surprisingly well and usually listen to each other in order to avoid doing something truly stupid.
Of course, that doesn't always work.
The funniest part is that the Cross Guild has absolutely no idea Buggy has split into two people. And that opens the door for an endless number of hilarious situations. :)
Second Story
In this version, Buggy either finds a strange lantern or becomes the victim of some kind of quirk, magic, or curse.
I imagined the beginning of this story either on Luffy's ship or on some random island. It always seemed to me that Buggy is capable of unconsciously saving someone — for example, accidentally pushing a person out of danger without even realizing it. Perhaps it is exactly such an action that causes the lantern to appear.
Buggy emerges from a cloud of thick smoke.
In his hands is an ancient lantern with an unusual blue flame burning inside. Buggy himself looks much younger — around twenty-six years old. He seems slightly tired, nervous, and constantly on edge.
The lantern's main feature is that other versions of Buggy can appear from it at any moment. As time goes on, more and more of them begin to emerge.
They cannot move too far away from the lantern because they are connected to it. Technically, they are still the same person, simply divided into separate parts of his personality. While inside the lantern, they resemble souls; outside of it, they take on physical forms.
Young Buggy always keeps the lantern with him and never allows anyone else to touch it. He is the one who keeps all the other Buggies under control.
He serves as the voice of reason, logic, and common sense.
To him, the lantern is literally his heart and soul. Giving it to someone else would be almost the same as tearing out his own heart and placing it in another person's hands. Losing the lantern could lead to death or something even worse. Because of that, the lantern is perceived as a part of his body.
I even considered adding Buggy's real body somewhere nearby — motionless, as if asleep. Or perhaps making it a translucent ghost that no one could touch. But maybe that would be a bit too much.
───
Child Buggy
He embodies Buggy's inner child — everything bright, sincere, and kind that still remains within him.
This doesn't mean that he represents happiness or joy. All of the Buggies have their own emotions. Rather, each of them represents a different side of Buggy's personality.
Child Buggy behaves exactly like a child.
He craves attention, loves running, jumping, touching everything around him, and exploring the world. He's naive, trusting, and can easily burst into tears if someone hurts his feelings.
The other Buggies often try to silence him or ignore him. However, no matter how much they pretend he annoys them, they all still feel emotionally hurt whenever he suffers.
Most of the group's life energy is also stored within him.
And he's adorable. When he smiles, it's as if rays of sunlight are shining out of him. He wears orange clothing, just like he did in the flashback shown during Oden's story.
───
Teenager Buggy
Teenage Buggy looks like the most miserable of them all.
He is apathetic, withdrawn, and constantly carries a heavy burden of emotions inside himself. It doesn't take much to push him toward irritation, anger, or even a breakdown.
He often feels like crying, but he never does so in front of other people. Only inside the lantern, where nobody can see him.
To outsiders, he appears completely indifferent to everything around him. But the moment someone tries to get close, he either becomes hostile, snaps at them, or simply turns away.
Not only because he hates and distrusts everyone.
But also because he is convinced that nobody would understand him anyway.
And because he doesn't want to share what is hurting him. (Let's be honest — it's often difficult for all of us to talk about our feelings and share them with others.)
He remains alone with his problems, and talking to himself about them doesn't always help.
If you imagined him visually, there would constantly be a small gray rain cloud floating above his head.
He looks like sixteen-year-old Buggy — the Buggy from the day he parted ways with Shanks.
───
Adult Buggy
This version is the closest to the Buggy we know from Orange Town.
He is energetic, confident, and serves as a source of motivation for the others.
Maybe not the healthiest kind of motivation.
But motivation nonetheless.
He's like a sharp edge of aggression mixed with a slightly crazy smile.
He loves chaos, mocking his enemies, and openly enjoys the suffering of others. There is a lot of cruelty in him, but at the same time, he is usually the one who pushes the others forward.
───
Abnormal Buggy
Nobody touches this version.
And nobody wants to wake him up.
He appears as a dark, shapeless mass hidden somewhere deep inside the lantern.
At his core, he is not really a separate personality, but the embodiment of absolute rage.
Abnormal Buggy only appears when the real Buggy is pushed so far that he no longer understands what he is doing.
In those moments, reason, fear, and self-control disappear.
Only the desire to destroy remains.
Imagine Buggy awakening his Devil Fruit while simultaneously standing on the edge of a complete emotional breakdown.
Pure aggression.
Pure destruction.
♂️ and ♀️ Versions of Buggy
Here's another idea that exists purely for fun and awkward situations.
[ Yes! Entirely for sex jokes and hot scenes. :>
Shanks would be surprised and absolutely thrilled :D ]
And honestly, I really want to see an embarrassed and flustered Shanks.
For some reason, Buggy ends up splitting into a male and a female version of himself.
I imagined this either as the result of strange magic or as the effect of some mysterious place that nobody knows anything about.
In my head, this story usually takes place either on Shanks' ship or on an island where both crews happen to arrive at the same time.
The two crews dock in different places, so at first neither side realizes the other is there.
Tired of dealing with their crews, Shanks and Buggy both decide to take a walk alone.
Naturally, they run into each other.
At first, everything is relatively calm.
Then an argument starts.
Then come the usual teasing remarks.
And eventually it turns into a full-blown fight.
At some point, Buggy loses his footing and falls into the water near a strange waterfall.
The water isn't very deep.
At first, neither of them realizes that anything has happened at all.
And then...
BAM!
Two Buggies emerge from the water.
A man and a woman.
For several seconds, both simply stare at each other.
Then at their own hands.
Then back at each other.
And then they both start screaming at the same time.
The funniest part is that their personalities remain almost identical.
Both are hot-headed.
Both are proud.
Both love making scenes.
Both are convinced they're right.
So instead of calmly figuring out what happened, they immediately start looking for someone to blame.
And of course, that someone is Shanks.
At least according to them.
Together they accuse him of causing everything, not even letting him get a word in to defend himself.
Sometimes they briefly turn on each other, arguing or trying to prove their point.
But sooner or later they always return to the conclusion that everything is somehow Shanks' fault.
The female version of Buggy looks very similar to the original.
The same facial features.
The same expressions.
The same hair.
The same habits.
The only real difference is a more feminine figure.
I've always imagined her with a smaller chest. For some reason, it feels like it suits her personality and overall image better.
Though, if you remember Buggy's waist before the timeskip, plenty of women would have been jealous of him even before the transformation.
Meanwhile, Shanks is completely bewildered at first.
Then he starts carefully looking at both Buggies.
Then he realizes there are now two of them.
And that's exactly when the situation becomes much more dangerous for him.
Because the two Buggies quickly reach an unspoken agreement.
If they're both here at the same time, why not take advantage of it and mess with Shanks?
Purely for their own amusement.
They tease him, argue with him, interrupt each other, invade his personal space, and constantly test the limits of his patience.
Every new minute becomes a challenge for Shanks.
Especially because both Buggies know exactly which buttons to push.
It's as if they've formed a temporary alliance against a common enemy.
The worst part for Shanks is that both of them genuinely enjoy his reactions.
The more embarrassed, annoyed, or flustered he becomes, the more fun they're having.
Eventually, they manage to push him to his limit.
Because even Shanks' patience isn't endless.
By the way, both versions of Buggy are either wearing soaked clothes, or only the male version is, while the female version ends up without any clothes at all. (The way anime often does it — with her hair conveniently covering her chest.)
Neither of them tries to understand what happened at first. Instead, they immediately point at Shanks and start yelling:
"THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!"
Even if Shanks has absolutely nothing to do with it.
Also, if Shanks and Buggy were co-captains, I think the situation would be similar, except both Buggies would be even more persistent and shameless toward Shanks.
The two Buggies would silently agree to mess with him together.
Just to see the look on his face as they push him closer and closer to losing his composure. 🔞
I also had this idea about Buggy's twins ♂️♀️
God, imagine four kids on a ship.
Shanks, Shamrock, Buggy, and his twin sister.
If Shanks and Shamrock are Identical twins, then I would rather make Buggy's story about Fraternal twins.
Ohohoho you got me fucked up, now I can't think of anything else other than fem!Buggy before bed😓😓😓
But then all that imagination stir me toward fem kuja!Buggy
Hear me out!!
Fem Kuja!Buggy delivering kuja's sake to shakky's bar and coincidentally the Roger pirates are also there to take a break and that's when teen!Shanks finally gets what the older crew member says about the beauty of the Kuja.
Do you feel what I felt🤤🤤🤤
YES!!! YEESSS!!! YEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!!!
Imagine!!
16-Year-Old Shanks sitting at the bar with a cup of juice in hand. Watching his crew and several other pirates that he was familiar with because he fought them before, sitting in a this bar, singing, dancing and drinking together as if they were all friends. Were they doing this because secretly they saw one another as friends and not rivals?
Naaahh! It was because of the beautiful bartender that everyone seems to fawn over.
Random pirate: Shakky! Please marry me! Or at least one date!
Another pirate: hey! This is neutral grounds!!
Roger: Just because we ain’t killing your ass currently doesn’t mean we won’t do it later for daring to ask for Shakky’s hand!
Teen!Shanks: I don’t get it.
Gaban: Get what, boy?
Teen!Shanks, gesturing around him: This! I don’t get why everyone acting so stupid around miss Shakky.
[the bar comes to a halt but the young boy doesn’t notice]
Gaban, checking his ears: say that again…
Teen!Shanks: i don’t understand why is everyone acting stupid around miss Shakky, she is nice and pretty, but I don’t get why would you throw yourself at her feet.
the entire bar: EEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHH!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Teen!Shanks, startled: What’s going on?!
Random pirate: You dare disrespect Shakky’s beauty like that!!!
Another random: we should kick him out! T ach him a lesson!
Roger: We should make him walk the plank!
All pirates: YEAH!!
Rayleigh, hits Roger on the head to silence him: he is your own crew dumbass, and no one is touching him.
Teen!Shanks: Why is everyone so angry with me? I’m just stating the fact.
Rayleigh: Don’t mind them, boy. It’s just the beauty of the Kuja women affect.
Teen!Shanks: Beauty affect?
Rayleigh: yes, the women of the Kuja are warriors from an all woman island called Amazon Lilly, all pirates can’t help but fall for them at first sight not only for their beauty but also strength.
Teen!Shanks: I didn’t know they were warriors, That’s so cool! But I don’t don’t see a reason to throw myself at her feet.
Shakky, teasing Shanks: Why? Am I not pretty enough for you?
Teen!Shanks, blushing: nah you’re very pretty miss Shakky, but if you wanted me to throw myself at your feet I won’t do it.
Rayleigh, hitting shanks upside the head: don’t be disrespectful, boy!
Shakky: No worries, he was only telling his opinion. And I understand, for there are those who resisted me greatly.
[Rayleigh averts his eyes with a blush when Shakky winked at him.]
Shakky: but who knows, maybe you will find someone one day that you will do anything to when their hearts.
Teen!Shanks, takes his juice and walks away: I doubt someone will have that power over me.
[Shakky watches Shanks walk away.]
Shakky: Ray, can I ask you a favor?
Rayleigh: Yes, anything.
Shakky: Can you send me a letter a few weeks in advance the next time you guys want to visit my bar?
Rayleigh, Confused: uhh.. Sure, but..what are you planning?
Shakky, easy smile: Just testing a theory of mine~
Rayleigh: you are a scary woman.
Shakky, winks: but you love that about me~
——
This got longer than I thought will try and make a part 2 for it tomorrow !
Kuja!Buggy: Shakky! I finished the design can you give me some money!
Shakky, raising a brow: And why would I give you money?
Kuja!Buggy: for my hard work, Duh! And for me to give to the Carpenter that I will commission.
Shakky: I thought you will make me the Bar front.
Kuja!Buggy: I didn’t say I’ll make! Look at these baby soft hands! I would ruin them by doing the heavy duty stuff! I will just ask someone to build the front and I will take it from there, Really Shakky~
Shakky, pinching Buggy’s cheek: Watch yourself and I will LEND you money, you’ll have to pay me back.
Kuja!Buggy: WHAT?!
Shakky: don’t give me that tone, I’m being nice by not changing you interest. Just give them the same amount back when you can.
Kuja!Buggy:…….a quarter amount.
Shakky: three quarters.
Kuja!Buggy: Half!
Shakky: Deal.
Kuja!Buggy: Jokes on you I would have said yes to three-quarters.
Shakky: and I would have given taken the charges plus paying you for it, but it looks like I’m going to be getting payed plus free bar front.
Kuja!Buggy: DAMN IT!!!!
Shanks: I WILL PAY!
Kuja!Buggy: I don’t want your filthy pirate money, AND LEAVE ME ALONE ALREADY!!
Shakky: Actually, if you’re going to town shanks with you.
Kuja!Buggy: No!!
Shakky: Either that or no going out at all until I finish my shift and who knows when is that.
Kuja!Buggy gets irritated and turns to Shanks before she marches towards him. The red-haired boy’s face flushes red she she gets inches from him.
Kuja!Buggy, while picking Shanks’s chest: If you get into the way of my creativity I will slit your throat with my dagger!!
Shanks: Y..Yes, ma’am!
Kuja!Buggy goes to change her clothes and Shanks stares after her with puppy dog eyes.
Young adult pirate: She is cute and all but not as beautiful as miss Shakky, and her nose is a bit is a soar view-
Shanks doesn’t waste time to tackle the older boy and headbutts him so hard the other loses consciousness.
Shanks: YOUR FACE IS A SOAR VIEW!!
Gaban, holds Shanks back: Whoa there tiger, leave that shivery to the little lady!
Kuja!Buggy: Can you stop playing your stupid pirate games and get going already! I want to commission my work by today!
Shanks immediately calms down and frees himself from Gaban before following the Kuja apprentice, who didn’t even glance behind her to check if he was following her as she kept her head held high and her movements graceful.
Roger: Our boy got captured by the Kuja beauty, and a fiery one no less.
Rayleigh: I’m not sure if he can even handle her.
Shakky: Not even Golriosa could control that one.
Roger: what do you mean?
Shakky: Gloriosa is teaching her how to be a future empress of Amazon lily but it seems impossible since Buggy seems to have her own big idea for the future.
Rayleigh: is she afraid of responsibility?
Shakky: Not really, Buggy loves giving orders and bossing people around and ruling over them, dare I say she is even good at it.
Roger: then what is holding her back?
Shakky, puffs out smoke: Nothing, there is nothing holding her back, not that she will ever allow it, not Gloriosa and not Amazon lily.
Roger: ok now I’m confused.
Rayleigh: I think she means that Buggy doesn’t want to have control over Amazon lily but rather the grand line.
Shakky: try the entire world.
Roger: *War Flashbacks with Rocks*
Gaban: This is going to be one hell of a love story. O CALL SHAPORONE!!
No one could understand what Gaban said let alone reply to him before he bolted out of the door and following to where the two young teens went.
I think femBuggy becomes a ghost legend but for a silly reason.
After finally getting her own private room and dressing and getting make up as she likes, she buys a ton of white, flowy, button up nightgows, sheet masks and bonets. She finally has peace at night and would not be bothered by Shanks so she has a full routine. By chance no one sees her like that.
Until one day.
She wakes up at midnight to get a glass of water and Roger does the same. They meet on the bow and Roger almost has a heartattack seeing that white figure.
By chance a Marine boat is close by and they manage to see Roger so they light their flash lights only to see a deadly pale Roger. They know that he is not terrified of them, so they point to the other side and see a lady in white walking the bow levitating. They also almost sh7t themselves.
Meanwhile FemBuggy is so sleepy she does not even fully opens her eyes, so she does not realize what is going on and she continuous levitating because she was too lazy to look for her shoes.
From that day on, a legend of a white lady haunting the Oro Jackson starts.
Fem!Buggy accidentally becoming the Oro Jackson’s resident ghost legend because she just wants peaceful skincare nights?
YES!! LETS ROLL!!
The legend of the White Lady of the Oro Jackson started as pure, unfiltered sleep-deprived chaos.
After finally carving out her own tiny private cabin (a major upgrade from bunking with a noisy red-haired boy), Fem!Buggy went all in on self-care.
Full routine: removing the dramatic makeup, slathering on whatever face masks she could steal from islands, silky white flowy nightgowns that billowed easily with any small gust of wind, bonnets of different colors, and those creepy sheet masks with the eye holes. At night she was finally unbothered. No Shanks trying to sneak in for cuddles. No crewmates banging on her door. Just blissful silence.
Until that fateful midnight.
She wakes up parched, eyes half-closed, brain 90% offline. Instead of hunting for her slippers because it’s too much effort, she just floats, her barefeet still anchoring her to her room so she won’t make too much effort in navigating her way back as she goes and floats her way across the deck toward the water barrel.
White gown fluttering in the sea breeze, sheet mask glowing eerily under the moonlight, and a frown at being forced to wake up temporarily. She looks like a vengeful spirit who died mid-facial.
Roger, who was also up for a late-night snack, rounds the corner and nearly drops his sake. At the sight of a pale floating woman with a blank white face gliding toward him. The Pirate King himself lets out a a silence scream and stumbles back, trying not to make the ghost notice him.
At the exact same moment, a Marine scouting boat is passing nearby. They wanted to ambush the Roger pirates, has everything planned perfectly, but then They spot Roger, pale as a sheet, looking terrified. They think it’s because of them and the general would say something: “terrified to finally being bested Roger!”
Roger only Shake his head and points at something in front of him. Flashlights swing over… and there she is: a ghostly white figure levitating along the bow. The Marines lose their minds. “It’s a curse! The Oro Jackson is haunted by a white lady!” One guy actually faints.
Fem!Buggy? Oblivious. She just grabs her water, turns around still half-asleep, and floats back to her chamber but not without letting out one of her long dramatic groans at the noisy people around her, thinking it was just another crew member. She never even noticed the commotion.
1- The Aftermath:-
Within weeks, the legend spreads, every Marine who’s ever crossed paths with Roger’s crew swears the Oro Jackson is haunted by a beautiful but terrifying white specter who appears under moonlight. Some versions say she curses anyone who disturbs her. Others claim she’s the ghost of a jilted lover. Shanks gets very defensive about that one.
2- Crew Reactions:
- Roger: after calming down, he Thinks it’s the funniest thing ever. starts encouraging the rumors, dramatically retelling the story at bars just to mess with people. “Aye, she’s still on board… sometimes you can hear her moaning about ‘not being flashy enough’ at night.”
- Rayleigh: Deadpan. He knows exactly who it is and refuses to comment, just sighs every time someone brings it up.
- Shanks: Torn between laughing his ass off and being extremely worried about his crush. The first time he hears the full story he sprints to Fem!Buggy’s room, bangs on the door yelling, “Buggy! Are you okay?! Did a ghost try to eat your soul?!” Only to find her in full ghost regalia doing her skincare. He freezes, blushes like an idiot, and mumbles, “…You look kinda cute like that.” She throws a shoe at him.
- Gaban: The man is living for this. Carefree king that he is, he doesn’t try to debunk anything. He amplifies the comedy. After the initial midnight encounter, he’s the first one cracking up, slapping Roger on the back and yelling, “Captain! You got scared by Buggy in her pajamas? Legendary!”
From then on, Gaban turns the whole thing into his personal running joke. He starts “ghost hunting” patrols at night… but really he’s just wandering around with a bottle of sake, dramatically pointing his lantern at nothing and shouting, “Show yourself, White Lady! I’ve got compliments and snacks!” Whenever he actually spots Fem!Buggy shuffling by half-asleep in her flowy white nightgown, sheet mask, and bonnet, he doesn’t wake her or scold her, he just leans against the railing, grinning like an idiot, and whispers to whoever’s nearby, “There she goes again. Our very own ship spirit. Ten out of ten haunting, very elegant.” He even starts leaving little “offerings” (stolen fruit or snacks) near her cabin door “to appease the ghost.” When Marines bring up the legend in battle, Gaban laughs so hard he nearly falls off the ship: “Oh yeah, she’s real! Scarier than any Admiral, she’ll get ya with her beauty routine!”
Fem!Buggy herself is mortified when she finally finds out. She spends a week refusing to do her night routine in anything but full pirate attire, but then gives up because “beauty sleep is more important than dumb ghost rumors.” Shanks, the simp king, starts “guarding” her door at night (mostly just loitering nearby hoping she’ll let him in).
Now the White Lady is an official part of Roger Pirates lore. Marines still tell scary stories about her. And every full moon, the crew makes bets on whether the “ghost” will appear… or if Shanks will finally get chased out of her cabin again.
Bustling outdoor market. Kuja!Buggy and Shanks wandered through the noisy stalls, searching for a carpenter. Shanks kept glancing at the back of the girl’s head before looking away, hesitant to make a move let alone speak, but he still forced himself to move forward.
Shanks, rubbing the back of his neck, grinning shyly as he walks beside her: H-hey Buggy… walking around the market with you feels kinda… nice. Like a little adventure, y’know? Almost like… um..*Cough*… a date? Heh.
Buggy, eyes darting between stalls, voice sharp: No. We’re finding a carpenter for Shakky’s bar front and That’s it. and stop with your disgusting pirate nonsense. Focus!
Shanks, getting discouraged chuckling nervously, scratching his head: R-right, sorry!
Shanks then moves back as he watches Buggy moves to a stall to ask them about a carpenter. feeling disappointed with himself for still failing to connect with the pretty worrier. And even screamed into his hands.
Gaban, hiding between the stalls: that was painful to watch, lover boy.
Shanks, panicking: GABAN!! *looks around makes sure Buggy isn’t looking* Why are you here!!
Gaban, grinning: Being your wing man! Now listen! You look so pathetic out there!
Shanks, rolling his eyes: Gee Thanks that’s what I wanted to hear.
Gaban: Stop the sass and listen! When you talk to her stop with the hinting and be straight forward, be more obvious with your intentions.
Shanks: I was being obvious!
Gaban: No my poor boy, your preformace this far is what I can best describe as a flopping fish on dry sand locking for water.
Just then Kuja!Buggy left the stall and started moving not even making sure if Sahnks was following here.
Shanks: I have to go! Stop following me!
Gaban, whisper yelling: Be more flirty! Compliment her beauty!
Shanks caught up to Kuja!Buggy and accidentally pumped his shoulder against hers earning a small yelp followed by an angry growl, before she wiped off he shoulder. The way her nose scrunched in disgusted and anger…..was a adorned l, which made Shanks blush.
Kuja!Buggy:Turns out he was just selling Cheap hammers, lousy lying leach.
Shanks, gulp before taking a deep breath: You know Buggy I’m when I say your serious face is kinda cute when you’re all bossy like that… I mean—uh—not that I’m trying to flirt or anything! Just… how about some juice after? My treat? If you want…
Kuja!Buggy, glaring sideways: Cute? Now that your first mistake I’m not just cute I’m pinnacle of all that is beautiful! And also, Keep dreaming, idiot. Move faster. And stop mumbling about juice.
In panicking Shanks looked around and found Gaban disguising himself with a fake beard and mustache with a big hat. And the. Whispered loud enough for him. “Be playful!”
Shanks, tripping over his own feet a little, laughing at himself: Whoa—sorry! See? I’m a total klutz today. Maybe from those eyes, I mean your glare could scare off sea kings! It’s… impressive.
Kuja!Buggy, sparing him a glance before grinning to herself: that’s the most rational thing you said so far Roger’s boy.
Shanks, eyes sparkling with excitement with a smile: you know We make a pretty good team, right? Me tripping around, you leading the way like a real Amazon warrior …
Kuja!Buggy, stopping abruptly, crossing her arms: Team? I’m not your anything, Shanks. I’m only stuck with you while looking for a carpenter for Shakky’s bar. If you keep this up I’m leaving you behind in the crowd.
Shanks, face turning a little red, but still grinning goofily: O-okay, okay! Message received… mostly.
Shanks looked behind him to catch Gaban, who was dressed as a woman in a long rob, motioning for him to “Keep going!”
Shanks, placed his hand on his heart and spin around that he was now walking backwards to have a better look of Buggy’s face: My heart’s doing that nervous pirate flutter again. Rejection hurts, y’know?
Kuja!Buggy, flashing one of her daggers: I can make is hurt for other reasons.
Shanks, panics and he goes back to his place beside her, just then they walked passed two stalls and between them Was Gaban hunched down and Giving shanks two thumps up, a signal that he was doing well. That gave the boy some courage, after all Gaban was really good when it comes to love. Or at least that’s what the adult would always tell the boy.
Shanks, pointing forward: But look! Over there! sawdust on the ground and that old guy carving something. That’s gotta be a carpenter, right?..uhh!.. My lucky guess!
Kuja!Buggy, sighing heavily, already walking toward the stall: Finally. About time your eyes worked for something useful.
Shanks grin became larger and his heart fluttered at the girls backhanded compliment. But he quickly halted when she stepped in front of him so close like back in the bar and poked his chest again.
Kuja!Buggy: Don’t say a word to him. *Poke* Don’t wink! *Poke* don’t joke! *Poke* don’t call me cute!!! *Poke Poke Poke* Just stand there quietly. This is important for Shakky. Understood?! *Pokes his nose*
Shanks, looking cross eyed at where her finger was, whispering with a silly hopeful smile: R-right, quiet. Got it.
Shanks, looks at how close she was, have her eyes always looked so colorful and beautiful like sapphires.
Shanks: B..But… after he agrees to the job… maybe one tiny juice? Or even just a smile? I promise I’ll be less annoying… probably.
Kuja!Buggy, turns and look over her shoulder, even sharper: Less annoying ? Impossible. Dream on, you red-haired clown. Stay silent and let me talk, or I swear I’ll feed you to the nearest boar.
Shanks, soft laugh: Heh… yes ma’am. Still glad I came with you though…
Kuja!Buggy was unaware how happy Shanks was because she called him annoying and told him to shut up but she didn’t reject his juice date offer this time. Meanwhile, Gaban disguised as bard from a fairytale.
Gaban, holding a fake lute: Ahhh~ young love how beautiful the way it burns so bright before it learns how to be gentle, right?
One time Shanks sees a strap slidding off Fem!Buggy shoulder and he snaps it to annoy her and Fem!Buggy almost ends him as he almost teared his bra strap.
Shanks: what is a bra?
The Oro Jackson: *hauling Shanks' ass to Crocus office so he can give him a deeper TALK*
He explains to Shanks that women need some special underwear to hold their chest
Shanks: why?
Crocus: *praying for patience* because they have breasts and they hurt if they bounce
Shanks does not get it until by chance he sees Fem!Buggy bra, and his two braincell connect each other. He spends an entire week without sleep and another week trying to see something under Fem!Buggy baggy clothes
Crocus prays that he never has to explain the difference between boxers and panties
Shanks would try to find some kind of a visual Stimulation by stealing one of Buggy’s bras and some oranges and starts weighing the fruits at the now hanged bra to see how it works.
Not from being a pervert maybe a little but mostly to understand why bras are so important to girls.
He will of course get caught and the Roger pirates have to put him in white beards protection for a while until Buggy is able to see him again without throwing acid bombs and sharp daggers at him.
