Due to recent manga revelations, I have made some changes. My computer died in the middle of writing this, so I had to do it twice. Usually there is a pop up that tells me, but not this time.😭

Garp's Polycule Situation: (Garp is friends with Rouge and Shakky too, I just forgot to include those arrows.)
Garp (19) and Roger (18) meet on an island somewhere. Then Rayleigh gets involved and sure Garp likes him, but he mostly likes Rayleigh as a friend that he occasionally sleeps with. So they have poly relationship/situationship.
They have an arrangement where they meet up on the islands where Garp will be stationed at.
So for three years they basically: fight, bang (sometimes right on the battlefield), they eat, and then they part ways. They also help each other when it matters (ex. God's Valley, Ace, etc.).
Then Garp finds out they are pirates and they have a falling out. The thing is though, Garp wasn't mad that they were pirates. Garp at this point knows that the marines aren't all they're cracked up to be, so he was just mad that they didn't tell him.
During this fallout period, Garp (22) meets Whitebeard (18) who is not yet part of Rocks' crew. Whitebeard doesn't mind that he is being used as a rebound; he thinks Garp is hot. Their relationship also consists of: they fight, they bang (sometimes right on the battlefield), they eat, and then they part ways.
Roger sees this and gets jealous. So he and Rayleigh track Garp down in order to apologise. They make up, but Garp still sees Whitebeard when they piss him off.
Eventually, Garp finds out he is pregnant and Dragon is born. Since the marines aren't very friendly to members with children and Garp's only living relative is his mother who doesn't like him; Garp stays on Roger's ship for his pregnancy and Dragon is raised on the ship until he is two. Dragon doesn't know this yet because nobody bothered to tell him.
Fast forward to when the Kuja and Rocks pirates come into play.
Shakky likes Rayleigh, Roger and Rayleigh like Shakky, Garp feels like he isn't enough and is constantly "accidentally" pushing Gloriosa (who nobody likes outside of friendship) overboard.
Garp knows that Rayleigh likes Shakky and tells Roger that Shakky doesn't like him. Roger is a bit dense and confused about why Garp is mad and why Rayleigh seems a bit distant. Roger just tells Garp to mind his business and to stay out of his.
See, for Garp, it will always be Roger for him. No matter what happens. Not that he doesn't love Whitebeard or Rayleigh, it's just that his love for Roger is different.
And Roger does love Garp too, but he doesn't really understand how to separate admiration and love. In his mind it's like: "I'm a pirate, so of course I surround myself with powerful and beautiful people!"
Roger only gets his head out of his ass when he sees Rocks try to make moves on Garp and when he sees Whitebeard ask Garp if he is okay.
So Shakky and Rayleigh get together while Roger and Garp talk it out. Basically:
Roger: I don't know why you're so jealous, you have other partners!
Garp: No I don't. It's only Whitebeard besides you and Rayleigh. And I only go to him when you upset me!
Roger: Only Whitebeard? You really don't have anyone else?
Garp: No! And I don't know why I even bother to come back to you when all you do is break my heart!
Roger: I break your heart?
Garp: Yes! I love you, but you don't even seem to care you selfish prick! You're all I care about besides my friends and kids, one of which is probably yours by the way! I don't even love Rayleigh as much as I love you!
So Roger realises: "Oh, so he feels the same way I do about him."
They make up and things go back to normal, but healthier. They are the main couple and get permission from each other to get involved with others.
Shakky leaves the Kuja and sets up shop on Rock's island. She and Rayleigh have a kid together. But then Shakky and their five old son get kidnapped.
God Valley happens and Shakky is recovered, but her and Rayleigh's son is not. They find Shanks instead and then they find Buggy.
Years pass and they meet Rogue. With Garp's permission, Roger starts a relationship with her.
Garp and Rouge were definitely friends and causing chaos. She was a bounty hunter after all, so she probably saw him at a marine base while collecting a bounty. They were best friends that shared a stupid boyfriend.
Shakky and Rogue have so much fun ripping people off together.
Then Roger decides to go looking for the One Piece and everything goes to shit.
Garp and Roger get into a fight over going after the One Piece because Garp just didn't want his loved ones to die, but he doesn't know how to communicate that properly.
So Roger, Rayleigh, and Rouge all left him at once.
Garp doesn't talk or see any of them for a couple years before Roger handed himself in.
Then Garp doesn't see Rayleigh and Shakky until like 10 years after Roger and Rouge died.
So I guess Whitebeard has been Garp's most stable relationship in this AU, but due to Garp's issues with talking about things, Whitebeard thinks that Garp captured Roger and brought him to the gallows.
Whitebeard doesn't know that it was Rogers choice to die that way because he was sick.
Oh, and everybody thinks Ace is dead because Garp didn't tell anyone that he gave the baby to Dragon. Also, nobody knows what Roger and Rouge wanted to name the baby.
Context: SEE HERE - So in this AU, Garp is trans and went kind of wild in his early twenties. He has three options of who Dragon's other dad could be (think Mamma Mia). Also, Garp gave Ace to Dragon to raise in this AU.
I have also been thinking about how Dragon might go about telling Ace about Roger and Rouge. Maybe Dragon has to figure somethings out himself before he can?
I was leaning towards Whitebeard or Rayleigh because I thought those would be the funniest options. Although I do like the theory of Mihawk being Shakky and Rayleigh's kid more.
-
If Roger is the Father:
Dragon: Hey Ace, you know how you're adopted right?
Ace: Yeah, so?
Dragon: Well I just found out we're half brothers...
Ace: Oh okay. ... Wait what!?
I feel like this would be the most awkward option, but still funny none the less.
Does this make Shanks and Buggy uncles?
Shanks the irresponsible drunk uncle that the kids love.
Buggy the uncle that gets beat up by the children, but since he is the more responsible one he babysits more often.
Maybe the kids see Buggy as the cooler uncle because he has a cool devil fruit?
Like Shanks is cool because he just lets them do all the dangerous stuff they want to do while he watches and then saves them when he needs to.
Buggy on the other hand runs a circus and can teach them a bunch of cool tricks properly. And make them fly.
If Rayleigh is the Father:
Shakky: You selpt with Garp?
Rayleigh: .... Yes?
Shakky: Nice 😉👌 Should I get a marine's uniform the next time we-
Rayleigh: Way ahead of you, got one in the closet, lets go.
He is the only one alive, so less angst?
Still get Shanks and Buggy as uncles.
Shakky teaches the kids how to run a shady business.
Sabaody Arc is absolutely hilarious now.
If Mihawk is Shakky and Rayleigh's kid, this means uncle Mihawk.
If Whitebeard is the Father:
Grim Reaper: Got 2/3 of Garp's lovers, Rayleigh your next!
A literal boatload of relatives. Pirate relatives. Garp is definitely regretting his life choices.
Whitebeard would be so happy to be a grandpa.
Law apprenticing with uncle Marco?
The rest of the kids tease Ace because he goes out on his own just to end up on grandpa's ship.
-
The Straw Hat's reaction to any of these options would be phenomenal.
Also, since two of these men are dead in canon, I guess it means that if you sleep with Garp you will end up dying?
I'm curious Morden Whitebeard meet Canon and HCD Whitebeard In Canada neighborhood Morden Whitebeard Explain about His former life Mob leader he and mob friends Kaido Big mom And Rocks Fighting a Celestial Dragon including mob leader IMU but suddenly CSIS Agent Name is Garp and two random groups is Rayleigh Roger they've trying fighting celestial Dragon After Rocks Death he no longer be Mob leader not any more what is he wants answer is Family He trying helping all children all so Adopted including Marco Thatch everyone he Also Relationship a Grap we'll he get pregnant has given child birth healthy boy name is Dragon It's a long story short Every About it he wants a family
Morden!Grap he Show up in Backyard trying to helping fix a water pipe like to Saying: hey uh Eddie have you seen a wrenc-(He shocking a Three Whitebeard he trying to saying) What the Three Eddie's you got to be kidding me three Eddies
Meanwhile In Pizza restaurant Morden!Borsalino was Relaxing his version of two Borsalinos They really Talk together
So this is how the property of the old people polycule looks like in the modern au. Three properties were made into one big one for them all to share. They have sleep overs, camping in the backyard, campfires, there's probably a pool, a playground, a garden, and other stuff.
I'm imagining them not living in the city, they live more on the outskirts with woodland and rural space.
As for kids:
Garp & Whitebeard: Dadan, Dragon (Roger's son), Kuzan, and whatever stray's Whitebeard picks up (so the whitebeard pirates).
Rogger & Rogue: Buggy
Rayleigh & Shakky: Mihawk
-
If the Whitebeard from Canon saw this, he'd be really confused.
If the Whitebeard from the HCD AU saw this, well depending on where in the story he got pulled out of, he'd either be really happy that they got to be together peacefully or, if it's before Garp and him make up, really mad.
-
Modern!Borsalino is the least stressed out of the three Borsalinos. Canon!Borsalino and HCD!Borsalino have war crimes and Celestial Dragons to deal with.
Modern!Borsalino probably just looks at the two "dead on the inside" versions of himself and is like: "Okay, take these marijuana gummies and go sit in the corner. I'm gonna go make you guys some pizza."
So Canon!Borsalino and HCD!Borsalino are zoned out in the corner, talking about their regrets and the meaning of life.
(I've never taken marijuana or any drugs before, so I'm basing this on stereotypes I've seen in movies.)
I wonder curious Morden ASL brothers meeting Version of Canon and HCD ASL Brothers in Canada Park they are hanging out each other they enjoy eating Hamburger each other Morden Ace Explains everything Dad(Dragon) and Father (Akainu) we'll They got getting a Divorce he has a three month old yes he a son of Detective also he a Son of Dragon and Akainu It's was long story short he was meeting Babysitting name is Rosinante he was a good Father figure very kind I was Calling him Papa Dad and Papa getting a Relationship my Dad has pregnant getting given a birth a Little brother is Luffy very happy family also he has a Four adopted brothers
Morden Sabo Explains about everything His Abuse Parent are hitting him every all time also they are working a Celestial Dragon they use a drugs and the Police getting arrested them they going to judge the Judge say everything all Neglecting Child abuse and the Drug dealer Assaulted everyone including Sabo they going to jail for life in imprisonment all so Rosinante and Dragon get Adopted meeting Ace Luffy and Adopted 3 brothers
Meanwhile Three Akainus looking at Three ASL brothers
Modern!Akainu grabbing his Version of Canon Akainu Shirt he says: The one he wears a silver and Black stainless steel hand wrist band is My Son if you Murdered My Son you got going to Jail for a life in imprisonment
The Aces:
So HCD!Ace doesn't tell the other two that he isn't actually Dragon and Akainu's son. Mostly because it's funny, but also due to me thinking that Canon!Ace would probably like that there is a version of him out there that is blood brothers with Luffy. Not that being blood related matters, because it doesn't, but because it means that there is a version of him that doesn't feel guilty for being alive and happy.
So that's also why HCD!Ace just goes with it.
Canon!Ace: You mean to tell me that instead of Roger being our dad, it's fucking Akainu?!
HCD!Ace & Modern!Ace: Yeah.
Canon!Ace: So Roger is what? Our uncle?
HCD!Ace & Modern!Ace: No, he's our grandpa.
Canon!Ace: How?
HCD!Ace & Modern!Ace: Gramps is trans and they fucked. A lot. Then dad (Dragon) popped out nine months later.
Canon!Ace: What?!
HCD!Ace & Modern!Ace: He also fucked pops (Whitebeard).
Canon!Ace: WHAT?!
-
The Sabos:
I can't say much about Sabo's origins right now in the HCD AU because that part is coming up in about 10-15 chapters (Robin is getting a whole ass arc because she deserves it❤).
Canon!Sabo: I got found in the garbage, shot in the face, and lost my memory until I was twenty.
Modern!Sabo: Wow! I was found bleeding in a back alley and then I had to go to extensive therapy.
HCD!Sabo: Cool! I was found in [redacted] by [redacted] and then [redacted] happened.
Then the three of them go to a protest or, depending on which world they're in, a raid together.
-
The Luffys:
They wouldn't give a fuck about the important things. The only thing they'd care about is talking about food and how amazing their family is.
Actually, on that note, maybe Luffy would like meeting the Luffys that still have their big brothers.
He'd also be very ecstatic that the heart pirates are his brothers in the HCD AU and the Modern AU.
Canon!Luffy: Your Aces and Sabos are alive?!
HCD!Luffy & Modern!Luffy: Yes.
Canon!Luffy: *trying not to cry* You want to eat meat and share stories?
HCD!Luffy & Modern!Luffy: Yeah!
Then they force all their Sanjis to cook for them.
Summary: Garp and Dragon talk about Garp’s relationships and which ones might be Dragon’s other dad. (This takes place after Ace holds Luffy in: Happy Coradrag AU - Holding Luffy.)
“You what!?” Garp exclaimed.
“I had a baby.” Dragon said quietly.
“Like it came out of you or you found it?” Garp asked.
“Yes he came out of me!” Dragon yelled.
“Oh it’s a boy? Can I train him to be a marine?” Garp asked him, excited about maybe having another marine in the family. Gender didn’t matter to him.
“No, you can’t train him to be a marine! He’s not even two days old! And he gets to decide his future!” Dragon replied, exasperated at his father, “His name is Luffy by the way!”
“Luffy? That’s stupid! You should have named him Hurricane or Garp Jr.!” Garp grumbled.
“I’m not taking name suggestions from you! You named me Dragon! And you named yourself Garp!” Dragon couldn’t believe his father sometimes. Although, he’ll admit that Hurricane did sound like a cool name. Not that he’ll ever tell Garp that.
“Who’s the other dad? Do you know?” Garp asked.
“Of course I know who the dad is! I’m not you!” Dragon replied, a little angry that his father would just assume that he wouldn’t know.
“Hey! I have a general idea of who your father is, thank you!” Garp yelled, “Three names in fact!”
“Oh really? Who then?” Dragon won’t lie, he had been wondering about it as he got older.
“Roger, Rayleigh, or Whitebeard.” Garp said without hesitation, “Pretty sure it’s Roger, but we did have that threeway with Rayleigh right around the same time. And then I saw Whitebeard right after.”
Dragon had to take a moment after hearing that. His father, a man who did not like pirates, had relations with three of them at the same time. Meanwhile, it took Dragon until he was in his thirties to even have one steady relationship, if he could call it that.
Then Dragon realised how good of an opportunity this was to make fun of his father.
“You mean to tell me that you had a relationship with the three biggest pirates on the Grandline? You’re a terrible marine!” Dragon said laughing.
“Oi! Watch it boy! I’m still your father!” Garp yelled at him, “When am I gonna meet the little bugger? I want to see Ace too!”
“Can we meet at home in Windmill Village? It should be safe there and I am about three weeks away.” Dragon told him.
“So am I! I’ll meet you there!” Garp was about to hang up before he remembered, “Hey wait! You didn’t tell me who the dad was!”
“Oh, right. It’s Rosinante. Bring Sengoku and him with you. I want them to meet Luffy too.” Dragon replied before hanging up. He didn’t want to hear what his father had to say about it. He knew it would be something crude and marine related.
Garp sat there blinking and after a moment of silence, started laughing. His son had a baby! A biological one! Here he is thinking his son will die alone and his son is out there making a baby! With a marine! He couldn’t wait to tell Sengoku about this!
A sharp knock on his office door snapped him out of his happy stupor and he quickly composed himself, “Don’t just stand there! Get in here!”
The door opened to show Sengoku, with Rosinante holding a tea tray behind him. “I hope you didn’t forget about our meeting today, Garp.” Sengoku said while closing the door after Rosinante walked through.
“Of course not!” Garp replied slightly offended, then an idea popped into his head, “I would never forget about a meeting with my in-laws!”
“Good. Maybe your memory isn’t so shi- wait… in-law!? What the hell do you mean by that?!” Sengoku sputtered out, hoping this was just one of Garp’s antics.
“Your son knocked up mine, Dragon gave birth yesterday! Congrats Sengoku, you’re a Grandpa!” Garp told them with a shiteating grin.
Suddenly, a loud crash came from the seating area. Sengoku and Garp looked over to see a passed out Rosinante.
“At least he set the tray down before fainting.” Garp said. Sengoku sighed and then he smacked Garp.
Rosinante reunites with Dragon, meets his son, and is sick of Garp’s shit.

May 26th - Monkey D. Residence - Dawn Island
Since the bombshell that had been dropped on him almost three weeks ago, Rosinante had been trying to pull himself together and figure out what the fuck was going on.
Actually, he knew exactly what was going on, everybody in the Monkey D family was fucking insane!
Well it was mostly Garp, but that’s beside the point!
Rosinante had just experienced some of the worst months of his life, had only just started to let go of the hope that Dragon may be coming back, only to find out now that they have a son together?!
What the hell is wrong with this family?! Rosinante had thought after fainting, Why are they so emotionally constipated all the time and leaving everything until the worst possible moment?!
Truth be told, while Rosinante had been quite pissed with Dragon at first, he had forgiven him a long time ago.
The incident on Needle Island was definitely traumatic for Dragon and he was placed in a precarious position thanks to Akainu. Rosinante knew that Dragon had to think of himself and his son’s life first. So couldn’t blame Dragon for faking his death or leaving the marines. It was really the only option for them.
But god did he miss them.
Rosinante was honestly just angry at Garp in the end for never mentioning important information unless asked for it and giving his kids such shitty coping skills. At least Kuzan had the common sense to explain some things to him or Rosinante would have gone berserk and would have tried to kill Akainu himself despite knowing it was impossible.
So yeah, Rosinante had forgiven Dragon and he was excited to meet their baby, but he was still confused about some things. He wanted to know if Dragon was ever going to tell him about the Revolutionary Army or just leave him behind without a word. He also wanted to know why Dragon hadn’t called earlier if he was pregnant.
Rosinante had spent almost the entire trip to Dawn Island pacing in his bunk room and worrying about what Dragon thought of him now.
Does Dragon not like me anymore? Does it have something to do with my heritage? Rosinante wondered, Is that why he didn’t call earlier? But if that’s the case, why did he want me to come now? Dragon also didn’t seem to care about that at all, so why?
Now though, as they were approaching Windmill Village, Rosinante was starting to get incredibly nervous. He could feel his hands get really sweaty, so he quickly wiped them on his pants, his eyes never leaving the village.
I have a kid, a son! Rosinante thought, I wonder what he looks like? Does he look like me or does he take after Dragon?
As soon as the boat hit the dock, he started running in the direction of the Monkey D residence with Garp and Sengoku following at a much slower pace behind. Rosinante felt like his heart was about to explode with how fast he was running and it was a miracle he didn’t trip or crash into anything.
Up ahead Rosinante could see the house come into view and he had to take a moment to catch his breath before he burst through the front door, startling Dadan who was resting in the living room after fighting to put Ace down for a nap.
“You’re the other father I assume? First door on the right.” She told him while pointing to the stairs.
Rosinante quickly thanked her before he stumbled up the stairs to where Dragon was. After face planting on the floor, he got up and stood in front of the door, hesitant to knock.
What if Dragon really does hate me now? Rosinante thought, What if he resents me for getting him pregnant? What if-
“You can come in, Rosinante.” Dragon told him from the otherside of the door, he sounded exhausted.
Rosinante cringed before slowly opening the door and stepped into the room, shutting the door behind him. Then he looked up and saw the most beautiful sight.
The midday sun was shining through the window as the only light source on a rumbled and exhausted looking Dragon laying in bed. The sunlight made him look so soft and warm. Rosinante wanted to just pull him close and never let go.
Shit, what was I going to say again? Rosinante thought, My mind has gone blank!
“How’d you know it was me?” Rosinante asked breathlessly.
“My father wouldn’t have been quiet or polite enough to ask, Dadan just put Ace down for a nap, and Sengoku probably needs a minute to comprehend everything.” Dragon told him while he slowly sat up against the headboard, “Also, I heard you fall up the stairs and fall in front of the door.”
Rosinante cringed again and rubbed the back of his neck feeling awkward, “Heh, sorry about that. Are you- Are you okay?”
“Yeah, I’m good, are you?” Dragon asked cautiously.
“I’m fine, just overwhelmed?” Rosinante rambled, “I mean I’m not mad, but why didn’t you tell me you were pregnant?”
“Didn’t my dad tell you? I didn’t know I was pregnant until I gave birth.” Dragon told him as he fiddled with his blanket, “I thought I peed myself.”
Rosinante quickly cursed Garp in his head before focusing again on Dragon.
“You really didn’t know? I thought you didn’t want me anymore or hated me for getting you pregnant.” Rosinante said, relieved that it wasn’t because Dragon resented him or about his past.
Dragon finally looked up at him, shocked at the thought of him hating Rosinante.
“I could never hate you! I thought I was sick from the guilt of leaving you behind. I wanted to leave you a note, but I also didn’t want to endanger you or make you think I was using you for information. I didn’t want you to hate me.” Dragon said in a panic, “I also didn’t want to make you feel like I was taking advantage of you. I’m too old for you, I didn’t think you’d actually want me.”
“I could never hate you either Dragon and you’re not too old for me! If you were, I would have never tried to use all those horrible pick-up-lines Bellemere gave me or pulled you into the bar bathroom!” Rosinante replied sitting down on the other side of the bed, “Then Garp told me why you left and I can’t hate you for trying to make the world better. I just wish you had called sooner or told me about your plans to leave at the end of the year.”
Dragon let out a relieved sigh and wiped away some tears before offering his hand for him to take. Rosinante quickly accepted and held the other man’s hand to his chest.
“I’m so sorry, I should have told you about when I was leaving. I wanted to tell you about the revolution, I really did.” Dragon earnestly told him, “But whenever I was with you, it seemed like all my problems just vanished, like I was free from everything. Free from the constant hiding and making sure I didn’t say something around the wrong people, I could just be myself around you.”
Rosinante quickly moved closer to Dragon and hugged him tightly, trying not to burst into tears.
“Dragon, you idiot, I feel the same way when I’m with you.” Rosinante whispered, “Please don’t ever do something like this again. If you do, I’ll hunt you down and chain myself to you.”
Dragon pulled back to look at Rosinante with surprise.
“You mean you still want me?” Dragon asked, “After everything I did?”
Rosinante grabbed Dragon’s shoulders and pressed their foreheads together.
“Of course I do.” Rosinante told him, “Will you take me as I am? An honest, clumsy fool who loves you?”
“Of course I will, I love you too.” Dragon replied, “But how are we going to be together? I’m a criminal and you're a marine.”
“Your dad is insane and mine is the Fleet Admiral, I'm sure we’ll work something out.” Rosinante confidently replied, “Just promise me that we tell each other everything from now on, no more secrets.”
Dragon laughed wetly, thinking that maybe some of Garp’s insanity rubbed off onto Rosinante.
“I promise.” Dragon said before kissing him.
Rosinante's hands moved to gently cradle Dragon’s face and they melted into each other. Who would have thought that heaven was kissing your lover in his childhood bedroom.
Unfortunately, Dragon pulled away far too soon.
“I have one more thing to tell you.” Dragon whispered.
“What is it?” Rosinante asked, confused about what else Dragon had hidden away.
“It’s about Ace’s father.” Dragon told him.
“Do we have to talk about Akainu right now?” Rosinante whined, “He’s the reason I lost you for so long.”
Dragon rolled his eyes and sighed.
“Akainu isn’t Ace’s father.” Dragon stated, “Gol D Roger is.”
“What?! You slept with the king of the pirates?!” Rosinante exclaimed, nearly falling off the bed, “Wait, that doesn’t make any sense! Roger was dead two years before Ace was born!”
“I know it’s confusing, but let me explain.” Dragon calmly said, trying not to laugh at Rosinante’s bug eyed expression, “I didn’t sleep with Roger and I didn’t give birth to Ace either, Portgas D Rouge did. She used the will of D to slow down her pregnancy for two years until my dad was able to find her and she died four days later from it.”
“Oh my god, that’s horrible!” Rosinante gasped, “But wait, why do you have Ace if you’re not related to him?”
“Dad promised Roger he would take care of Ace and then gave him to me because he thought he would die before any of us gave him grandchildren.” Dragon told him as he shrugged, “Also, Ace might be my brother.”
“Wait, what?!” Rosinante yelled, “What do you mean he might be your brother?!”
“I just found this out when I called him three weeks ago, but apparently my father had polyamorous relationship with Roger, Rayleigh, and Whitebeard up until Roger died.” Dragon bluntly told him, “Which makes a lot of sense looking back on things.”
Rosinante had to take a moment to process all of that, but at this point, he felt like he was losing it.
“Well for a man that hates pirates he sure did fuck a lot of them!” Rosinante huffed, “Does this mean that Shanks and Buggy are your siblings?”
“Well, we did babysit them a lot, so I guess?” Dragon said, “I haven’t really thought about it, I was more focused on seeing you again.”
“Fair enough.” Rosinante sighed, leaning against Dragon again.
They quietly held each other for a moment, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere and being able to hold eachother again.
Then a shrill cry broke the silence making Rosinante go stiff.
“You want to meet our son?” Dragon asked him as he laughed.
Rosinante will never admit it, but he forgot that was why he was here. He nodded his head so fast he almost fell off the bed, but Dragon thankfully caught him.
“Sit against the headboard and I’ll get him.” Dragon directed.
Rosinante situated himself against the headboard and watched as Dragon went over to the bassinet he missed at the end of the bed. A tiny, squirming bundle was lifted out of it. Dragon gently unwrapped the baby and then adjusted Rosinante’s arms.
“Hush now Luffy, it’s time to meet your papa.” Dragon whispered as he placed the baby in Rosinante’s arms.
Rosinante tried not to cry as he looked at the tiny baby in his arms, well more like his hand actually. He had never seen a baby so small, he met Ace when he was a toddler, this baby fit in his hand!
And he was so adorable too!
Luffy was in one of Ace’s old onesies that had monkeys and bananas on it. Curled up in Rosinante’s arms and wiggling to get comfortable. He had Rosinante’s blonde curls and big round eyes the same colour as Dragons, which were curiously looking up at him.
Luffy was perfect and Rosinante couldn’t believe that he was half of him.
“Hi Luffy, I’m your papa.” Rosinante cried, “You’re so beautiful, I love you so much. I promise to do my best to look after you, your brother, and your dad.”
Then he started to hear sniffing to the left of him. Looking over, Rosinante saw that Dragon was crying too.
“I’m sorry, all my hormones are just super weird right now.” Dragon cried, “Do you like his name? We can change it.”
Rosinante carefully adjusted Luffy so that he was holding him with one arm and used the other to pull Dragon close to him.
“No, it’s perfect, thank you Dragon.” Rosinante reassured him, before kissing his temple.
Dragon hugged Rosinante tight and nuzzled into his shoulder.
Maybe everything will work out after all.
Suddenly, they heard a bang outside and the bedroom door was pushed open, banging against the wall slightly. In came a fussy Ace who had just woken up from his nap, rubbing his eyes as he walked in.
The toddler didn’t even notice Rosinante was there as he crawled up the bed to get to Dragon.
“Daddy, I want hugs!” Ace demanded as his dad picked him up.
“Hello firefly, did you have a good nap?” Dragon asked the whiny toddler.
Ace just huffed into Dragon’s neck as an answer and clung to him tighter.
“Well if that’s the case, I suppose you don’t want to see Rosi then do you?” Dragon teased him while pointing to Rosinante.
Ace’s eyes shot open and he looked at where his dad was pointing to, shrieking with glee once he saw it was indeed Rosinante sitting there.
“Rosi!” Ace cried as he jumped onto the man and latched onto him, “I missed you! Daddy did too! I saw him cry!”
Rosinante laughed at the flushed look on Dragon’s face and pulled them both to him.
“I missed you guys too.” Rosinante told him, “I missed you both so much.”
With the three people he cared for the most in his arms, Rosinante felt complete for the first time in months.
-
Average newborn size is: 1"8 feet or 50.8 cm - So Luffy would be just a bit smaller than that because he was slightly undercooked.
Average three year old size is: 3"1 feet or 93.98 cm
Dragon calls his dad to tell him about Luffy. Somehow it turns into talking about Garp’s relationships and which ones might be Dragon’s other dad.

May 8th - Revolutionary Flag Ship - Somewhere In The Grandline
It has been three days since Luffy had been born and Dragon was resting in his room on his ship.
Well, he was physically resting, mentally he was running in circles trying to figure out what he was going to say to his dad.
Dragon had promised himself the night before that he would stop being a coward and call the man, but his anxiety was trying to get the best of him.
What if he hates me now? Dragon had thought that morning, I know he said he didn’t, but it’s been months since then. Rosinante definitely hates me.
Thankfully the kids hadn’t caused any trouble that morning, well, Ace was behaving. All Luffy could really do at the moment was cry, eat, and sleep. Especially eating, the kid was like a black hole, which Dragon should have expected to be a given due to him having the D genes.
Eventually, it was lunch and then nap time for the kids. They went down easy enough with only a little bit of fussing.
Dragon was supposed to napping too as per the doctors orders, but he was actually having a staring contest with his den-den-mushi while trying to muster up some courage.
Taking a quick glance back at Luffy and Ace sleeping, Dragon let out a deep sigh before picking up the receiver.
It’s now or never, Dragon thought as he dialed his dad’s personal number, Even if they all hate me, they should know about Luffy.
Dragon then waited for someone to pick up.

Garp’s Ship - Somewhere In The Grandline
Garp was in his quarters furiously doing paperwork and mentally cursing Sengoku out for giving it to him.
They were coming back from a warlord meeting and Garp was given paperwork to make sure he didn’t cause any trouble. The man had become quite a headache for Sengoku since Dragon had left.
It also didn’t help that Dragon had been the only one in his family doing any paperwork, he had even written his dad and brother’s papers when he was in the marines as he had “better handwriting”. So there was some backlog from him leaving.
Needless to say, Garp was not having a great time. He missed Dragon and Ace, so much so that he had started sleeping with his den-den-mushi waiting for his son to call.
Said den-den-mushi was now sitting on the corner of his desk and was trying to eat some of the documents on his desk.
“Stop that!” Garp yelled while swatting at it, “I need these for Sengoku the Prick.”
Suddenly, the den-den-mushi started and Garp scrambled to pick it up before it vibrated off the desk.
“Hello and what the hell do you want?” Garp gruffly asked, “You better not be one of those weirdos trying to sell me something!”
Then he heard a familiar laugh come over the phone and saw the snail change its appearance.
“Never change dad, never change.” Dragon chuckled.
“Dragon?!” Garp gasped, “Where the hell have you been? And why haven’t you called me! It’s been seven months!”
“I- I know, I’m sorry.” Dragon quietly said, “I’m sorry for being so stupid about it, but I was afraid. I didn’t want to risk being captured and Ace being killed or worse.”
Garp softened slightly at that, but then he heard sniffling and watched as the snail started tearing up.
“Are you crying?” Garp laughed, “You missed me that much?”
“Yes, I missed everyone.” Dragon sniffled, “And stop laughing, I’m incredibly hormonal right now.”
“Hormonal? What do you mean?” Garp asked, confused about what his son meant.
Dragon was quiet for a moment before he whispered, “I had a baby.”
“You what!?” Garp exclaimed, absolutely stunned by the revelation.
“I had a baby.” Dragon said a little louder.
“Like it came out of you or you found it?” Garp asked, thinking it might be a situation like him finding Kuzan in a field.
“Yes he came out of me!” Dragon yelled, the snail taking on a pissed off expression, “I just didn’t know I was pregnant!”
“Oh it’s a boy? Congratulations!” Garp told him, then he asked, “Can I train him to be a marine?”
“No, you can’t train him to be a marine! He’s only three days old! And he gets to decide his future!” Dragon replied huffing, totally exasperated at his dad, “His name is Luffy by the way!”
“Luffy? That’s stupid! You should have named him Hurricane or Garp Jr.!” Garp grumbled.
“I’m not taking name suggestions from you!” Dragon firmly told him, “You named me Dragon and named yourself Garp!”
Dragon couldn’t believe his dad sometimes. Although, he’ll admit that Hurricane did sound like a cool name, not that he’ll ever tell Garp that.
“Both of our names are perfectly respectable.” Garp huffed, “That kid is going to get bullied, kids will call him Goofy Luffy.”
“They will not!” Dragon exclaimed, “Luffy is an adorable name and fits him just fine!”
The snail was pouting now, so Garp decided to change the subject.
“Who’s the other dad?” Garp asked, “Do you know who he is?”
“Of course I know who the dad is! I’m not you!” Dragon replied, a little angry that his dad would just assume that he wouldn’t know.
“Hey! I have a general idea of who your father is, thank you!” Garp yelled, “Three names in fact!”
“Oh really? Who then?” Dragon asked, he had been wondering about it as he got older.
“Roger, Rayleigh, or Whitebeard.” Garp said without hesitation, “Pretty sure it’s Roger, but we did have that threeway with Rayleigh right around the same time. And then I saw Whitebeard right after.”
Dragon had to take a moment after hearing that his dad, a man who did not like pirates, had relations with three of them at the same time. Meanwhile, it took Dragon until he was in his thirties to even have one steady relationship, if he could call it that.
Although, looking back on his childhood, it did make a lot of sense. Sometimes they’d cross paths with the Roger Pirates or the Whitebeard Pirates and hang out with them instead of fighting. Well, Garp fought, but everybody else was busy partying together. He also remembers a couple times where he and his siblings were forced to babysit Roger’s boys.
It also explains why Garp had helped Rouge.
Then Dragon realised how good of an opportunity this was to make fun of his dad.
“You mean to tell me that you had a relationship with the three biggest pirates on the Grandline? You’re a terrible marine!” Dragon said laughing, “Maybe we should call you ‘Garp the Pirate Fucker’ instead of ‘Garp the Fist’!”
“Oi! Watch it boy! I’m still your dad!” Garp yelled at him, “And when am I gonna meet the little bugger? I want to see Ace too!”
“Can we meet at home in Windmill Village?” Dragon asked, “It should be safe there and I am about three weeks away.”
“Sure, I’ll meet you there!” Garp agreed and then was about to hang up before he remembered, “Hey wait! You didn’t tell me who the other dad is!”
“Oh, right. It’s Rosinante, bring Sengoku and him with you, I want them to meet Luffy too.” Dragon replied before hanging up.
Dragon didn’t want to hear what his dad had to say about it, he knew it would be something crude and marine related.
Garp sat there silently for a moment, while still holding the den-den-mushi, before he started laughing.
My son had a baby! A biological one! Garp thought, Here I am thinking my son will die alone and he is out there making a baby! With a marine! I can’t wait to tell Sengoku about this!
A sharp knock on his door snapped him out of his happy stupor and he quickly composed himself before yelling, “Don’t just stand there, get in here!”
The door opened to show Sengoku with Rosinante behind him holding a tea tray.
“I hope you didn’t forget about our meeting today, Garp.” Sengoku said while holding the door open for Rosinante and then locking it.
“Of course not!” Garp replied slightly offended, but then an idea popped into his head, “I would never forget a meeting with my in-laws!”
“Good. Maybe your memory isn’t so shi- wait… in-law!?” Sengoku sputtered out, hoping this was just one of Garp’s antics, “What the hell do you mean by that!?”
“Your son knocked up mine, Dragon gave birth yesterday!” Garp told them with a shiteating grin, “Congrats Sengoku, you’re a Grandpa!”
Suddenly a loud crash came from the sitting area, Sengoku and Garp looked over to see a passed out Rosinante.
“At least he set the tray down before fainting.” Garp stayed.
Sengoku sighed and then smacked Garp.
“Ow! What did you do that for?!” Garp whined.
But Sengoku just grabbed his shirt collar and dragged him over the desk.
“Are you telling the truth, Garp?” Sengoku calmly asked him.
“I swear I’m not lying!” Garp told him, “Dragon didn’t know he was pregnant and just called me to meet up with us on Dawn Island.”
Sengoku looked shocked and let go of Garp’s shirt.
“Holy shit, I’m a grandfather!” Sengoku exclaimed, “I’m too young to be a grandfather!”
“Hey! We’re the same age!” Garp yelled offended.
Before their fight could escalate further, they heard Rosinante groan.
“Wha- What happened?” Rosinante asked, his voice a little slurred.
“Dragon gave birth to your son!” Garp yelled, “You’re a dad now!”
Rosinante looked at him for a moment before his eyes rolled to the back of his head and he promptly passed out again.
“Wow, your kid is weak as shit Sengoku.” Garp commented.
This of course earned him another smack.
Later, while Sengoku and Rosinante were still trying to process things, Garp directed the ship to Dawn Island.
