Marco, Thatch, Vista, Izo when their crush has an argument with her boyfriend
-Marco is like one of the best characters for this
-he won’t go straight to you when he sees you’re upset but he’ll find you in a few minutes after he’s collected a few snacks and/or drinks
-he’ll sit with you and urge you to talk about it because it helps, if you don’t want to say anything he won’t make you
-he lets you put your head on his shoulder
-fall asleep if you want to, he’s fine with that
-he’s also one who will bluntly compliment you
-“you’re an amazing person” “I thought you looked beautiful” “you’re the candle in a dark room” “your smile lights up the room” “being around you is the best part of my day”
-he’ll also throw in a “he shouldn’t of done that” “you don’t deserve to be treated like that” “you deserve someone better” ”he’s wrong about that”
-if it weren’t under such disheartening circumstances he would be loving this, but he hated that it was because you were upset that you had come to him
-I mean don’t get him wrong he loves taht you trust him enough and feel comfortable enough with him to seek comfort, but if you were happy he could be happy
-he’ll offer whatever input he has if you want it
-if you want to stay away from your boyfriend Marco is more than happy to help
-he becomes passive aggressive towards your boyfriend, not that he wasn’t before, but it’s slightly more noticable
-he’s not trying to hide it when your boyfriend comes to get you
-equally prepared and panicked
-you’re having trouble with your boyfriend? could this lead to a breakup? you’re crying?! you need comforting? from me?!
-it’s go time
-he has a tray of cookies ready and he’ll lead you into the kitchen with his hands on your shoulders and your back against his chest because he wanted to provide comfort while he was walking with you
-he can’t stand seeing you cry, he’ll crouch down to your height and take your hands away from your face and say “don’t cry darling” with the sweetest smile
-he’s sooo up for trash talking your boyfriend, though his insults are more funny because he’s trying to make you laugh
-if you need to talk about it he’s ready
-if you need someone to just hold you he is extra ready
-he’ll gently stroke your hair and whisper reassurance
-another one for blunt compliments
-”you’re stunning” “you even look beautiful when you cry” “I would do anything to see you smile again”
-definitely says “you deserve someone better”
-depending on how upset you are and what mood Thatch is in, he might go in and have a talk with your boyfriend, reprimanding him and scolding him for making you so sad
-Vista is sooooo ready for physical comfort, hugs, kisses, you name it
-when he sees you crying/upset he takes your hand and hold in gently with both of his, asking “darling, whats wrong?”
-he’ll most likely comfort you with a long warm hug, he’s great at hugging
-after that he’d sit dowwn with youand try to distract you with something else, like making some rose petals appear or giving you a whole bouquet
-he doesn’t care if your boyfriend walks in on that
-he is gentleman and always super sweet especially to you, but I think his insults can be fairly raunchy and he’s so not against insulting your boyfriend
-”he smells like that one time Ace passed out in the fish for 7 hours” “[bf/n] can shit in his hand and slap himself” “the only thing he thinks is beautiful are his own balls, so you shouldn’t pay a single drop of attention to anything he says”
-compliments, he gives you compliments daily too so of course he’s gonna bring them out now
-”you’re stunning” “has anyone ever told you that you put the sun to shame” “do you have any idea how gorgeous you look even when you’re crying”
-he will be extra intimidating when he sees your boyfriend, maybe even a growl if he’s real mad
-he does that on the daily as well, but instead of impressing you this time it’s to scare your boyfriend
-he’ll kiss your hand as a way of goodbye in front of your boyfriend
-and when it’s just the two men left alone Vista will bend over so his eye level is just a head taller than your boyfriend’s and he’ll insult him and warn him not to upset you again or he’ll come steal you away
-as furious as he is that your boyfriend made you cry, comforting you comes first
-he hides his anger really well when it comes to your boyfriend because he doesn’t want to upset you further
-he’ll take you away from your boyfriend if necessary
-the two of you will likely end up sitting on Izo’s bed and Izo has his arms around you gently rubbing your back
-he’s more of the type to say things like “he shouldn’t have done that” “you don’t deserve to be treated like that” “you deserve someone who will treat you right”
-if your boyfriend insulted you at all Izo will definitely cimpliment you to cheer you up, though his are usually less bold than the others’
-he says you need to eat something so he’ll leave momentarily and bring back a little tray of food from Thatch
-after you’re done eating he’ll suggest you take a nap so he leans back in his bed and blushes brightly when you lean back against his chest and snuggle against him
-your boyfriend ends up coming in to find you and he sees you curled against Izo who has one arm around your waist while he strokes your hair
-he gives a death/warning glare to your boyfriend, not even moving to make you get off him
-there’s no smugness in/on Izo because if though he is with his crush and his boyfriend has to watch instead of the other way around, Izo’s main focus is making sure you’re cheered up

Introduction
Cold. It was cold. So cold. Cold everywhere around you.
Cold and wet and windy.
You coughed out water and opened your eyes with difficulty. The light immediately blinded you.
As the seconds passed, you took notice of the beeping in your ears.
Flashes of what had happened merely seconds before flooded your mind.
You realized your were holding onto a piece of wood and you knew you couldn’t let it go.
Opening your eyes ever so slightly again, you saw glimpses of the remnants of your ship, the floating corpses of your crew, the fire that engulfed what was left.
Your entire body was aching. You knew you shouldn’t close your eyes again.
But you couldn’t help it.
You opened your eyes slowly, blinking a few times. Soon enough, you realized you were in a warm and soft bed. The room was dimly lit, which you thanked heavens for.
A yawn escaped you, causing your entire face and neck to hurt in the process. That is when someone entered the room. The broad figure seemed familiar but you couldn’t tell for sure. Your eyes were still adapting and you were unable to think clearly yet.
“Glad to see you’re awake,” they declared gently.
That voice. A lightbulb lit up in your head as you recognized it.
Portgas D. Ace
Oh so quietly, you managed to murmur: “Freckles?”
A chuckle reached your ears.
“Yeah, it’s me.”
Ace walked over next to your bed, grabbing a chair somewhere in the process. Placing it near you, he turned it around to straddle it, elbows resting on the back of the chair.
“How are you feeling?” he asked gently with a small lopsided grin.
With the slightest scoff, you answered: “Like shit.”
Another chuckle filled the room.
“Fair enough,” he declared. “We found you floating, holding onto a broken piece of wood.”
After processing the information, you murmured with a broken voice: “What about...?”
“Your crew?” Ace guessed. A moment of silence ensued. You noticed he had lost his grin. “I’m sorry, Y/N.” He paused again. “We searched for anyone else but... you were the only survivor.”
Silence filled the room once more.
“I’m sorry,” repeated Ace quietly.
“It’s okay,” you assured. “Not your fault.”
Ace offered you the ghost of a smile.
“I’m happy you are still alive at least.”
You let out a light chuckle, not wanting to hurt yourself by doing so.
“Takes more for you to get rid of me,” you joked.
Ace smiled at your declaration.
“Who said I want to get rid of you?” he teased back.
“Shut up.”
Your response made him laugh this time. He knew you had just gone through something traumatic, that humor was probably just your way of coping. Still, it gave him hope that you would get better soon.
Slowly, gently, not wanting to startle you, Ace took your hand in his. The feeling was soft, comforting. You silently thanked him.
With his usual lopsided grin, he leaned over and brought your hand to his lips, gently pecking it.
“Get some rest, Y/N,” he whispered. “I’ll look after you.”
Thatch
Quietly, you asked: “Thatch?”
A chuckle filled the room.
“It’s me, darling.”
Without waiting, Thatch walked over to you and sat on the edge of your bed. He quickly found your hand and held it between his.
“What happened?” he asked gravely.
Struggling, you answered: “Don’t know... Explosion I think.”
Thatch nodded understandingly.
After thinking a bit more, you wondered: “My crew?”
A sigh reached your ears.
“Y/N... I’m sorry. We didn’t find anyone but you.”
A light nod is all you gave as answer.
“Did you maybe see anyone before fainting?” he asked gently.
You shook your head ever so slightly.
Thatch gave you an apologetic smile.
“You’ll be okay at least,” he said reassuringly. “I’m glad you’re safe.”
“When I’m out of this bed,” you started, “I’m arresting you.”
Thatch let out a loud laugh.
“Sure thing, darling. Sure thing.” Leaning over to peck your forehead, he whispered: “Get some rest instead of talking nonsense.”
Marco
“Marco?” you whispered.
He answered positively. Quietly, he reached the side of your bed and stood next to you.
“Are you in any pain?” was his first question.
With a small, playful smile, you asked back: “What d’you think?”
After a light chuckle, Marco assured he would give you a painkiller.
While preparing the medicine, he wondered: “What do you remember?”
You searched back in your memory before answering. “Was on the ship... talking to my first mate... Then an explosion... And I was in the water.”
Marco nodded listening to your explanation.
“We found you floating on a broken piece of wood,” he stated while injecting something you assumed to be the painkiller to the intravenous bag connected to your forearm.
“No one else?” you wondered.
Marco remained silent for a bit.
“I’m sorry.”
Another moment of silence ensued.
“You patched me up?” you asked.
Marco nodded and briefly explained what he had done.
“Thank you,” you whispered. “But I’m still going to arrest you someday.”
The blond let out a chuckle.
“Can’t wait to see that,” he teased. Taking one of your hands between his, he ordered: “You should get some rest. Can’t arrest me otherwise.”
hellooo i saw the marco and izo reaction to reader breaking up with their boyfriend, so can you do it with vista and thatch please?
pt2 to this 💕
vista, thatch when their crush finally breaks up with their boyfriend
-he was actually just around the corner while you and your boyfriend were fighting and ultimately breaking up
-your boyfriend opened the door to leave and vista stepped around the corner heading straight for your room, he pushed your boyfriend out of the way and into the hallway then shut the door
-he instantly opens his arms to hug you and you wrap your arms around him
-”shh sh it’s okay darling” he gently strokes your hair, he’s smiling and he knows he shouldn’t but he also knows you’ll be so much happier now
-he leads you to the bed and sits back against the pillows letting you lay against him
-he’ll bring out some flowers and hand them to you to cheer you up
-then he turns to small short kisses on your cheeks and forehead and shoulder, he just likes kissing you and he can’t kiss you. on the lips yet so he does this, just as good
-so this means he can be a complete dick to your boyfriend right? sorry, ex boyfriend
-seriously this man becomes so passive aggressive in the days your ex is still on the ship, vista insults him to his face or whispers insults in his ear- those are really insults but just phrases that would piss off your ex
-when the island comes and you ex is about to get off the boat, vista literally kicks him off grinning
-READY
-this is what he’s been waiting for, as soon as he heard what had happened between you and your boyfriend from one of the crew members, he set to work baking your favorite cookies
-he wanted to let you have some time to yourself which. is why he didn’t go straight to you
-once he’s done baking he goes to your room and pokes his head in with a smile
-he goes to sit next to you and places the cookies on your nightstand
-”so you finally got rid of him huh?”
-he tries to lighten the mood and it works, you giggle halfheartedly at his joke but at least he got a giggle and he’s pleased with that
-he pulls you closer putting his arm around your shoulder and you lean your head on on his chest as he presses a soft kiss to your forehead
-don’t even try to put yourself down thatch has millions of compliments ready to fight back
-he’ll just joke around with you for awhile and keep you entertained and happy
-so when your ex gets off on the next island thatch has his stuff thrown to him and he sits on the ship’s railing watching your ex struggle to grab them all- occasionally throwing an apple or two or some things he “forgot” to give him
Marco, Law, Thatch, Usopp headcanon- non-devil fruit phoenix S/O imprints on them
•~•~•~•
Warnings: none
Definition of what I mean by imprint: it’s like love at first sight, it means the phoenix will do anything snd everything it it’s power to protect the person it imprints on. The phoenix always has the need to be near the chosen person, sleeping, sitting, etc. The phoenix protects this person with its life. So basically like an intense love at first sight thing that non-devil fruit phoenixes have.
Marco

•Very honored
•Skeptical about the “protects with life” because he too would never want to be the cause of your death

Introduction:
You didn’t know how long you had been chasing him anymore. It had been ages since you first met. You, a young marine recruit, and him, a pirate with little to no reputation at the time.
Both of you grew in your respective universes. He was becoming more and more famous, seeing his bounty grow as he became a prominent figure in piracy. Meanwhile, you were doing the same, working hard to get to a higher rank. Your goal was to change the world for the better and you knew you couldn’t do that by remaining a seaman your entire life.
You were now vice admiral. Yet you still hadn’t caught your life long rival.
A certain tenderness had grown in your heart for the pirate. He might be on the other side of the law, but his charms had worked on you... to some extend. Or at least that is what you told yourself. Some might call it a crush. But you wouldn’t go so far. You were a marine after all!
Despite that, you couldn’t resolve yourself to hate the man. Whenever you would meet, you would end up chatting in one way or another. It might end up with you chasing them and never catching them, nevertheless, you sometimes admitted to yourself you liked the pirate’s company.
However, you didn’t know how much longer your pride could take it. Seeing him run away and teasing you about it every time was becoming frustrating. It had been all fun and games until now. But now, now you were a vice admiral. Having a pirate escape you so many times was greatly affecting your reputation. You feared for your rank. What would happen to you if you couldn’t catch him next time?
Ace
“Ahhh, Y/N! How long has it been?” resonated a voice behind you. You could tell who it was in a heartbeat.
“Not long enough, clearly,” you responded, the ghost of a smile tingling at your lips.
“Come on, don’t be so moody!” he cheered.
Ace walked over and sat on the stool next to yours. He asked for a drink to the barmaid and when he wondered if he could offer you one, you politely declined.
“I’m not miserable enough to accept a drink from a pirate,” you bit.
“Ouch, Y/N!” he said in mock offense. “Beside,” the young man continued, “you didn’t say that last time.”
You huffed at his teasing. It wasn’t any different from usually, but this time you weren’t in the mood to play along.
“Can you stop reminding me that this is the umpteenth time I won’t catch you, freckles?”
Ace frowned and looked at you curiously. With caution, he asked: “Is something wrong, Y/N?”
A deep sigh escaped you as you closed your eyes. You nodded your head in negation.
“I don’t know, Ace.” You opened your eyes again and looked at him. “I’m vice admiral now, you know?”
“Yes, I’ve heard of that! Congratulations!” he intervened.
A small smile graced your lips. “Thank you. But to be honest with you, I fear I’ll lose my rank any time.”
Ace frowned once more. “Why so?”
“Because I keep on letting you run away,” you declared, bittersweet. “People in the marines are starting to think I do it on purpose and it might not be entirely wrong but I can’t keep doing that because it’s getting really suspicious and I might lose my job even though I worked so hard for it so I would have no idea of what to do if it were to happen. Meanwhile you keep running around as if none of this was happening and you don’t stop teasing me and it’s always such a pleasure to see you, freckles, but I don’t know how much longer I can handle this.”
Ace was frozen. It was a lot to process in so little time and it took him a few seconds to catch up with all the information you had just wildly thrown at him. His mouth opened and closed a few times. A frown appeared and left his features just as quickly.
After taking a deep breath, he finally found something to say: “Listen, if it’s really that dangerous for your rank and it’s so important for you... we can simply stop running into each other. I would miss seeing you, but... I don’t want to be the cause to you losing a job you worked so hard for.”
A bittersweet laugh escaped you. “Like we could actually plan that!”
Ace gulped and avoided your gaze. His hand traveled to the back of his neck.
“Well... maybe we haven’t been bumping into each other all this time so haphazardly...” he confessed.
The words were missing you. You blinked quickly a few times.
“What’s that supposed to mean?”
The man was still looking anywhere else but you.
“Ace?” you called calmly.
He took a deep breath before meeting your gaze. “Maybe I’ve been going to places a few times because I knew you were there?”
You had the slightest incredulous look but it quickly vanished as Ace let out a nervous laugh. A soft smile graced your features.
After the initial shock passed for both of you, you chatted as you usually do. Making sure to not attract too much attention, you quietly agreed to keep bumping into each other but... more discreetly.
Ace gave you his Den Den Mushi contact and you did the same. You assured that you would get your hands on a white variant in order to encrypt your calls and be more secure.
The young man was happy you didn’t decide to cut off all contacts with him but rather hide them. It would always be better to him than to never see you. Plus, now you could talk almost any time.
You didn’t tell him but you were also glad with how the situation turned out. The prospect of never seeing your favourite pirate anymore had felt incredibly wrong.
You wouldn’t admit it just yet, not even to yourself, but the one you nicknamed ‘freckles’ had a special little place in your heart.
Thatch
“Well, well, well, what a surprise to see you here!” cheered a voice behind you.
A small smile graced your lips as you recognized who it was in an instant. You turned towards the man.
“Always a pleasure to see you, Thatch,” you greeted.
“And even more to see you,” he responded with a grin. “I’m going to get some rum for my fleet, wanna join?” he invited.
You nodded and the two of you started walking.
“So, how have you been since the last time we bumped into each other?” he asked.
A grimace flashed over your features.
“Could be better to be honest.”
Thatch frowned at your answer.
“Why’s that?” he pushed kindly.
You clicked your tongue.
“Everyone’s just been getting really suspicious. They’re starting to think I’m one of your allies because of how often you’ve managed to run away,” you answered honestly.
Thatch offered you a cheeky smile: “It’s not your fault I’m faster than you.”
His comment made you laugh. Despite that, you admitted: “I don’t think we should be so familiar with each other though. If anyone under my command sees us chatting so casually, I could get into serious trouble.”
A sad look appeared on Thatch’s face.
“Do you... not want to talk with me anymore?” he asked cautiously.
A sigh escaped you.
“It’s not that I don’t want to. Despite being on the opposite side of the law, I enjoy your company.”
“You enjoy my company?” he teased.
“Oh shut up!” you responded while laughing. After a quiet moment you continued calmly: “I just don’t want to lose my job. I worked so hard to get where I am and I can’t change the world if I go back to barely being a seaman first class.”
Thatch remained quiet for a bit. As you approached the most famous rum seller on the island, he carefully offered: “If you want to stop, I’d understand. But I think I’d miss you.”
You laughed: “What’s there to miss about me anyway?”
“More than you might think,” he responded with a wink.
“Shut up,” you mumbled under your breath.
As you both came to a halt in front of the shop, you took in a deep breath before meeting Thatch’s gaze.
“I’m going to go back to my men,” you declared, “and I’ll try to think of a solution by the next time we meet each other.” Your tone was confident. As much as you feared for your job you also knew you didn’t want to stop seeing your favourite pirate.
Thatch offered you a trusting smile, declaring he was sure you would and that he would be looking forward to it.
Marco
“Fancy seeing you here,” greeted a calm voice behind you.
You lowered your book and turned to the origin of the noise. There was your eternal rival. The man you had been chasing for so many years and that you had yet to catch. Maybe you let him run away on purpose on more than one occasion but then again, the idea of sending him to Impel Down didn’t appeal to you. You’d rather keep your game going even if you didn’t admit it.
“Long time no see, Marco,” you greeted back.
You scooted more to the side of the bench on which you were sitting, leaving some space for the man to join you. Marco promptly sat down next to you and asked how you had been.
“Better,” you admitted. “The rumors have lessened since the last time we met.”
The man smiled lightly.
“I’m glad to hear that.”
You took in a deep breath.
“Funny how we’ve been bumping less into each other since I told you I was scared to lose my job though,” you remarked.
Marco remained silent, looking straight in front of him.
You, however, turned towards him.
“I told you we didn’t need to stop seeing each other despite the rumors.”
A sigh escaped the blond.
“I’ve been causing you trouble your entire career already, I thought I could let you breath for a bit this time,” he admitted calmly.
You huffed: “Do you really think I’m unable to catch you if I want to?”
Marco offered you a puzzled look.
“Sure at first I was actually trying, but after a while it became too much fun. Who would I chase if you aren’t around anymore?” you said in a joking manner while actually being serious.
A small smile graced the man’s features.
“You’re full of surprises, aren’t you?” he declared. You had perceived some fondness in his voice but you convinced yourself otherwise.
“Shall we be seeing each other again, then?” you wondered.
All Marco had to do was flash you a grin and you knew his answer.
2 things: I didn’t mean to make them shorter and shorter, that just happened xD and I really hope I didn’t make them OOC because that is always my worst fear ;-;
Anyway, let me know what you thought of it, thank you a lot for reading! <3
