My boy Roswell getting in trouble
Fullbody
Since he already bears such a strong resemblance, im just gonna go ahead and make them cousins *cackles*
If he’s in the same vicinity, he’ll drop in to tease his cousin and futilely flirt with Hina
Sakazuki
reports to him in addition to his commanding officer at G-2 since Sakazuki has the unique ability to terrify him into good behavior
was trapped in the plaza at Marineford when meteor volcano was unleashed, was nearly killed and has been a little shaken ever since
constantly getting yelled at for sleeping with pirates and other criminals, and generally being a mess
can you tell us more facts about your OC with other Marine? Like someone from a lower or higher rank, like Coby, Tashigi and Smoker, Tsuru, maybe even Rocinante? I'd love to know their thoughts about X Drake in particular, tbh!
Ahh thanks for the ask!
Coby
I don’t think Roswell would’ve paid much attention to him at first, but he would’ve seen Coby and Helmeppo hanging around with Garp.
Although he’s technically based in G-2, Roswell spends a fair amount of time at HQ, and he pays attention to the movements of the higher ranks.
He definitely would’ve taken more notice of Coby post-Marineford. Especially Coby standing up to Akainu. Roswell has a brother about Coby’s age and seeing Sakazuki about to waste the kid (plus nearly getting his own ass destroyed by Meteor Volcano) shook him up. After that, I can’t see him interacting too much with Coby but he’d have a fondness for him.
Plus, Roswell and Garp have a similar irreverent relaxed demeanor, so they’d have a cordial relationship even if Garp takes his role more seriously.
Smoker and Tashigi
Roswell is intimidated by Smoker’s intensity, but also drawn to his straightforward personality. Their meetings are only occasional though, so Roswell really hears more about Smoker from gossip than in-person.
I can also see him acting as a confidant. He’s quite easy to talk to, and his consistent bad behavior means he certainly isn’t in a position to pass judgment on anyone.
He admires Tashigi for being able to keep Smoker in line, and consciously reins in his impulse to flirt with everything that breathes because she looks like she has enough on her plate already.
When they happen to be in the same place, he’ll offer to take Smoker out for drinks, partially because he appreciates his rough personality, and partially to give Tashigi a break for an evening.
Tsuru
He’s absolutely intimidated by her, and will act much more formally if she’s around. He’s used to being chastised by her and has accidentally called her “mom” at least once.
Tsuru doesn’t take him seriously as a Marine, but she does acknowledge that he has a good record of completing the missions he’s assigned to.
Of the upper brass, I think she’d be more understanding of Roswell’s interest in self-preservation since he’s got a much younger sibling to take care of.
Rocinante
I didn’t think about it until now, but they’re close to the same age! Rocinante would’ve been two years older than Roswell, so they might have been in academy together.
Roswell would’ve considered Roci to be overly serious. He’d have trouble getting a handle on Rocinante’s personality, and I can’t really see them hanging out.
They do have a clumsy streak in common, though with Rocinante it’s much more extreme
X Drake
Roswell and Drake shared the same rank at the time of Drake’s defection, and Roswell would’ve been in the early years of his career when Drake’s father defected.
It’d be fun to develop a relationship between these two, with Roswell as a more senior Marine accompanying recruit Drake on a mission.
Roswell’s ideological ties to the Marines aren’t that strong, so it’d be interesting to have him observe over time as Drake’s attitudes shift about the Marines and his history as a pirate.
They had a brief encounter via ask blog so.. as a potential ship they have a nice size difference lol
I was going to ask "Does Roswell like boys or girls?" but then the Batman meme 'Justice is unisex!' came to mind. I will be honest, I thought he and Whitey Bay made a cute match, until you linked the X Drake page, and now I ship it, and it's all your fault! *HUFF*.
Oh man, I didn’t even think about Whitey Bay but... she’d wreck his shit. Roswell doesn’t have the best judgment, but I think he’d at least try to stay away from a Whitebeard-affiliated pirate. Though the key word is “try” haha...
He’s bisexual with a preference for women, though he’ll often claim to be straight. Though with romantic (as opposed to sexual) preference, he’s less picky about gender.
With women (or really anyone who’s more fem), he’s not very choosy, and will pursue people of a wide age range, with all sorts of body types and personalities. With more masculine people, it’s not like he has a defined type, but he is more selective about who he’s interested in.
The whole Drake thing blindsided me too... ever since then I’ve lowkey wanted it OTL
