Important PSA

(Important PSA)

If you get asks claiming to be “technical support staff” asking you to click a link to verify your e-mail because they need your banking credentials or get DMs from similar accounts asking you they need your e-mail address for verification reasons and want your name..

That is a phishing scam impersonating tumblr staff and you should not be posting the asks with a live link in it or trusting the DMs and sending your information! This is an extremely old kind of scam that has began resurfacing and you need to take internet safety into consideration.

It is safer to take a simple screenshot of the ask so the link won’t be spread and lead to a mass hack of users who fell for the attempt. You can warn people without putting their account in danger because some people don’t care what you say and will go to the link anyway.

Please be careful.

cw‼️: yandere themes, kidnapping, toxic relationship, slight nsfw suggestion

A/N: after finding out by @baby-tini there’s no yan alphabet of dabi, i had to contribute and be the first. Reblogs are appreciated!

MASTERLIST | DABI FLUFF ALPHABET

Affection- How do they show their love and affection? How intense would it get?

With Dabi it’s safe to say very intense. He feels everything so deeply, and he is very emotionally fragile too. He will give you his undivided attention and will expect the same in return. You should always look at him, nobody else. What he feels towards you is very unhealthy, his whole world revolves around you besides his other goals, he is quite emotionally dependent on you.

Won’t always shower you with the sweetest words but his actions clearly show the affection he has towards you, physical touch is actually this man’s love language.

Extremely clingy, always needs to hold your hand or your hip or touch your hair, always by your side everywhere you go.

Blood- How messy are they willing to get when it comes to their darling?

As expected from him, he is willing to burn everything down to the ground for you without any hesitation. You’re his weakest point and if anyone harms you ever so slightly, they’ll face a painful burning death.

He will also get rid of anyone that “threatens” your relationship, a certain friend, a coworker who was close to you (even worse if it’s a male). If Dabi gets the slightest doubt in his head that you are giving special attention to someone who is not him, it’s over for that person.

Cruelty- How would they treat their darling once abducted? Would they mock them?

I see him being able to calm you down with his strangely soothing voice and comforting words, you’d be screaming and crying and hyperventilating but suddenly he has managed to calm you down pretty good, grabbing your face gently with both hands and rubbing circles on your cheeks. He’s cooing in your ear that you’re such a good girl, that everything will be alright. He’ll kiss your tears, and tell you he’s gonna take care of you forever.

Darling-Aside from abduction, would they do anything against their darling’s will?

Other than kissing you, hugging you, making out with you and leaving marks on your neck, I do not see him going further. Dabi is more than capable to take you forcefully against your will and fuck you till you’re broken, but he doesn’t have the heart to, nor does he find any sick pleasure in that.

In his eyes it’s better to have you willing instead, he wants to make you fall for him in a way that has you hating yourself over such feelings. He will tease you, kiss you, make you feel hot and bothered but never take it further, until you’re the one actually begging him to do so. You’re the one who is suddenly grinding against him so needily, you don’t even realise it until you hear his low chuckle that has your cheeks hot. He loves the fact that you hate him so much yet your body is begging for his touch.

Exposed- How much of their heart do they bare to their darling? How vulnerable are they when it comes to their darling?

You won’t see him break down that easily at first, he knows you hate him and you wouldn’t care. Though as time passes you can actually see you and him becoming more intimate when it comes to feelings, mostly him, and it feels strange knowing that a fearful villain like him has in fact a fragile heart hidden beneath his cold, intimidating persona. He becomes more vulnerable with time, but not vulnerable enough to give you advantage of controlling him. He loves you yes, but he needs his own time to actually trust you.

Fight How would they feel if their darling fought back?

That bastard loves when you turn against him, he even encourages it sometimes, angering you on purpose just to see you trying to hit him. He knows he’s much stronger than you, but he still lets you hit him, maybe catching your hands to block you from movement, but he never hits you back.

To him you’re like a spicy little kitten, hissing and throwing a fit, 100% attack but 0% damage. He’ll call you little kitty too.

Game- Is this a game to them? How much would they enjoy watching their darling try to escape?

He enjoys a good game of cat and mouse. Just like any captive would do he knows you’d also try to escape many times. The thing is, you aren’t aware of the tracking device put on you, made by Skeptic at Dabi’s request.

Dabi gets a certain thrill watching you escape, thinking you’re so safe and finally able to go home, only for him to hunt you down again and bring you back to your real home. You keep him on his toes and he gets an adrenaline rush each time he plays with you like this. Deep down he has a sadistic side that loves watching you cry and kick him as he forcefully drags you back to the base.

Hell-What would be their darling’s worst experience with them?

When you anger him. Dabi is a very patient man, but if you take it too far by saying certain stuff that may touch his emotional side, that’s when you’re in for a ride.

It rarely happens when he really gets angry with you, but when it does you end up with burn marks on your body. He dangerously heats up the grip he has on you, and it burns so bad you keep crying even in the next days because the pain doesn’t go away. You learn it the hard way to be careful when you play with fire, because you’ll definitely get burnt.

Even if he didn’t use his quirk on you, the way his eyes darken has you shivering on your seat, its a sight that you’d never seen on him. Just like any other poor soul, you also learn to never get on this man’s bad side.

Ideals-What kind of future do they have in mind for/with their darling?

After having achieved his goals and turning the hero society to ashes, he plans to do his best to stay alive. If before he had made up his mind to die while taking down his dear ol’ dad too, now he will do anything to survive because your existence gave his life a whole other meaning.

In a world where villains have taken over, you’ll be by his side watching the world burn. He doesn’t see any other person next to him other than you, he is determined to keep you by your side till the day death do you both part.

Jealousy- Do they get jealous? Do they lash out or find a way to cope?

If there is a trait that would describe this man perfectly is jealousy. He is possessive, jealous, it feels like you’re walking on eggshells when interacting with other people in his presence. If he convinces himself that you looked a bit too longingly at someone else, or smiled a bit too much or were too friendly, he’ll hold it against you for the rest of the month.

If someone tries to get close to you or try and talk to you, Dabi will pop out of nowhere right beside you, wrapping a hand around your shoulder, driving people away with his threatening glare. People learn to always keep their distance from you and watch their words because they love their life enough to not get burned to death by the psycho on your side.

Kisses- How do they act around or with their darling?

Like I said, very clingy, very touchy, you need to be close to him no matter what, your hands must touch each other’s no matter what.

You wanna think of him as a devil, yet his kisses are heavenly, slow and passionate, but then they get rougher and more possessive as seconds pass by. His lips against yours and his tongue inside your mouth have you melting on the floor, it has you thinking and behaving in ways you’d never normally do. The fucker is a good kisser, it’s a good weapon he uses against you to have you gushing all over him, he loves the effect he has on you just by a few kisses.

Love letters- How would they go about courting or approaching their darling?

Dabi would learn the places you go to on daily basis, favorite cafe, your workplace/school, favorite shopping district, where you get your groceries etc. And then you’d suddenly run up to him, what a coincidence. Just more of an excuse for him to approach you and talk to you. His captivating blue eyes and husky voice easily pull you in his trap.

Flowers on your doorstep and written notes, letting you know how serious he is about you. You thought it was very romantic, but it wasn’t as romantic anymore after finding out later he is in fact a wanted villain.

Mask-Are their true colors drastically different from the way they act around everyone else?

Yes, because with you he gets to show his vulnerable side too, his deepest thoughts and feelings that he’d never show anyone.

Naughty- How would they punish their darling?

Tying you up in some dark room and not letting you out until he says so. It only happened once though.

Spanking is his favorite punishment, he’ll have you laid down on his lap, ass up as his heated palm comes down to leave bruising marks. He’ll have you count too and if you don’t count properly he’ll start from the beginning, getting off at the way you scream and cry.

You start thinking twice before doing something stupid again.

Oppression- How many rights would they take away from their darling?

No phone allowed until he trusts you enough, every contact with your old life is cut off, friends, family, everything. No going out allowed, not on your own at least, if you behave good he’ll take you out for walks everyday or eat in some nice place. Still he won’t go with you in crowded places until he’s sure you won’t pull off anything stupid to catch people’s attention.

Patience-How patient are they with their darling?

He is very patient. Doesn’t mean that he doesn’t have a certain limit which you must not cross.

Quit-If their darling dies, leaves, or successfully escapes, would they ever be able to move on?

The only way you’ll be able to escape him is if you die or he dies. No other way. If you manage to escape and go to heroes for help he would rather go wreak havoc and take you back with him rather than just sit back and do nothing. Even if you pull off some very successful escape and disappear off the face of earth, he will search the whole world until he finds you again. As long as he is alive and breathing, you shall never be free of him.

If you die, that’s another different story. It would completely shatter him from the inside, to the point he’d destroy himself. He’d blame himself from not protecting you good enough, he’d mourn by burning down everything and turning it to ashes, including himself.

Regret- Would they ever feel guilty about abducting their darling? Would they ever let their darling go?

Yes he would feel guilty. Unfortunately that guilt doesn’t overpower his love and obsession towards you. He is selfish and will keep you for himself, help you get used to your new life.

Stigma- What brought about this side of them [childhood, curiosity, etc]

[I don’t get this question I’ll let the readers fill it lmao]

Tears- How do they feel about seeing their darling scream, cry, and/or isolate themselves?

If he enjoys watching you cry at some point, he doesn’t like it when that crying and isolation goes for too long. He’ll try to give you your space, in hopes that you will calm down on your own. He gets you everything materialistic you could have wished for, pampering you in the best way possible, just to see you smile a bit.

Unique- Would they do anything different from the classic yandere?

Not sure. I honestly think Dabi as a character has some obsessive yandere traits, you can’t convince me otherwise. Because he is so consumed by his obsession towards a person, whether it is by feeling hatred or love, always thinking of them at some form, everything he does or thinks about revolves around the said person, his whole life is only about the said person. I totally see him behaving this way with a potential partner.

Vice- What weakness can their darling exploit in order to escape?

You could try to earn his trust, make him feel loved and seen, making him believe that you’ll never abandon him, you could use this as an advantage to plot your escape. But your weak heart won’t actually let you defy him and hurt him like this, it’s way too cruel.

Wit’s end- Would they ever hurt their darling?

Yes, sadly he would. When he’s lashing out at you his quirk might get out of control and accidentally hurt you in the process. Which he definitely regrets.

Xoanon-How much would they revere or worship their darling? To what length would they go to win their darling over

Dabi worships you in ways you’ll notice when he is all over your body, kissing you, doing anything just to give you pleasure, he doesn’t care for his own pleasure before yours, you’re the definition of beauty in his eyes.

He’ll compliment you and throw in flirty comments that have you trying to hide your blush.

Flowers, gifts, stolen trinkets, anything you have looked at for too long in the shopping mall he’ll get it for you. He’ll spoil you rotten, will go out of his way to get you your favorite jewellery that you’ve always dreamt of.

You’re a sight for sore eyes and he despises the fact that other people get the opportunity to look at someone as beautiful as you.

Yearn- How long do they pine after their darling before they snap?

I’d give it 5 months max. After stalking you, getting to know you better and studying you, he’d become so desperate to the point he finally kidnaps you. Dabi takes his time and makes sure everything falls into place perfectly before he executes his final plan, he is not one to rush things, hence why he is patient enough until the time has come to finally make you his.

Zenith-Would they ever break their darling?

If you’ve fallen for him and would willingly go back to him even if he let you free, means you’re already broken.

☆ : They're jealous ×

characters: Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Ace

cw: jealousy (is that supposed to be a warning??), probably ooc, cringe, not proofread, probably contains grammar mistakes, english isn't my first language!!

(a/n): This is like, my first time writing for one piece characters specifically😀 I'm barely in Alabasta but I cannot wait until I finish one piece so that I can write for it😔 ACE IS A NEED UGH -> m.list

★requests are open!!

LUFFY

Luffy doesn't understand jealousy at first and will simply blurt out "Why are you talking to him so much?" without realizing it sounds possessive.

Believe it or not, he can get VERY possessive. You're pretty much just as valuable as his hat, you're his treasure.

That's right, his treasure.

So then, why are you talking to that donkey faced man? He's so ugly, why would you even bother wasting your breath speaking to him?

He'll cling to you like glue, throwing an arm around your shoulders or holding your hand tightly while pouting.

When Luffy's jealous he starts getting loud, making exaggerated jokes or showing off just to grab your attention.

Complains to the rest of the crew (probably Usopp or Nami), asking things like "Why does she want to talk to him when I'm right here?"

He completely interrupts your conversation with the other person by inserting himself, I just kinda feel like he'd do that.

WILL demand you sit next to him at meals and get grumpy if you sit by someone else.

He can't stay mad for long, the SECOND you give him attention, he lights up again as if nothing happened.

If the other person makes you laugh, he'll immediately try to one up them by doing something goofy, trust me, I know

He will casually lean on you or put his hat on your head as a possessive gesture (LUFFY THE MAN YOU ARE)

He's so childish

ZORO

Zoro acts nonchalant but is secretly FUMING inside when someone gets too close to you.

Glares daggers at the other person, making them incredibly uncomfortable without saying a word, he's just like that

Crosses his arms and stands near you as if silently asserting dominance (ugh I need him)

He gets extra grumpy with Sanji or anyone else he sees as competition, throwing insults their way.

He physically can't hide his annoyance and mutters things under his breath like "Tch, what's so interesting about him?"

If you laugh at someone else's joke he's gonna be like "It wasn't that funny."

I feel like he gets jealous if someone compliments you, but instead of complimenting you himself, he'll grumble like "You don't need to hear that from him."

WILL position himself between you and the other person, silently blocking them from getting closer.

I think he lowkey gets clingy after cooling down his jealousy, sticking close to you but pretending it's no big deal.

When you reassure him, he'll pretend it didn’t bother him, saying stuff like "Whatever, it's not like I cared." But deep down, he's RELIEVED.

SANJI

Lord have mercy

Sanji gets visibly jealous and is UNABLE to hide it with his dramatic reactions

He definitely calls the other person out immediately, saying things like "Why are you bothering her, huh?"

He tries to pull your attention back to him by showering you with compliments and affection.

He starts offering to cook your favorite dishes after that, just to make himself seem more worthy than moss head over there

If the other person is flirting, Sanji will step in and sweet talk to you SO passionately it makes the other person back off (simp power??)

He dramatically smokes while muttering "How could she look at someone else when I'm right here..."

Tries to outdo the other person in everything, just to show he's better

WILL ask you "Do you think he's better than me?" with puppy dog eyes

100% gets extremely competitive with Zoro (if it's him you're giving attention to) insulting him while trying to impress you

When reassured, he's back to his usual lovestruck self and saying "I knew you couldn't resist me, my angel!"

Sanji just wants to feel like he's your number one, and your affection always melts his jealousy away.

ACE

MY MAN UGHH

HE'S THE REASON I STARTED ONE PIECE IN THE FIRST PLACE

Anywayss

Ace tries to play it cool, but his temper makes his jealousy pretty obvious.

If someone flirts with you, he'll casually throw an arm around your shoulders and say "She's taken, by the way."

Speaking of throwing, he definitely picks you up and completely THROWS you over his shoulder. It doesn't matter how tall you are or how much you weigh, he ALWAYS manhandles you.

His freckles make it easy to spot when he's blushing out of jealousy or frustration (UGH😫)

He gets restless and starts fidgeting, for example bouncing his leg while watching you talk to someone else (is that my seat right there?)

Stares at the person with a smirk that doesn't quite hide his irritation, daring them to push their luck (you know that one scene in Alabasta where that giant scorpion was in front of him and Ace was like "I wouldn't if I were you" or something like that? Yeah, that's right🤭)

If someone compliments you, he'll immediately agree and add "Yeah, but I noticed that first."

UGH KICKING MY FEET😣

Can get surprisingly moody, muttering things like "What's so special about him, anyway?"

Might act a little childish, poking fun at the other person

WILL casually flex his strength or abilities if he feels the need to, like lighting a flame in his hand and saying "Bet he can't do this huh?"

If you reassure him or show him affection, he'll relax immediately, grinning and saying something like "Yeah, I knew you couldn't resist me."

And he's smirking at you with that stupid handsome face (I need him🚨)

★yoyomiko ★miko

I dunno if this is an autism thing or just a me thing, but when I was a kid, I would hiss at the kids who bullied me. To this day, I still sometimes hiss at things I don't like. What do y'all think?

How to Write a Character Who Feels Like Throwing Up

When fear, dread, or guilt gets sickening—literally—your character is consumed with a gut-clenching feeling that something is very, very wrong. Here's how to write that emotion using more than the classic "bile rose to the back of their throat".

Start with the Stomach

This isn’t just about discomfort. It’s about a complete rebellion happening inside their body.

Their stomach twists like a knot that keeps pulling tighter

A cold sweat beads on their neck, their palms, their spine

Their insides feel sludgy, like everything they’ve eaten is suddenly unwelcome

They double over, not from pain, but because sitting still feels impossible

Add Sensory Overload

Vomiting isn’t just a stomach reaction—it’s the whole body.

Their mouth goes dry, and then too wet

Their jaw tightens, trying to contain it

A sudden heat blooms in their chest and face, overwhelming

The back of their throat burns—not bile, but the threat of it

Breathing becomes a conscious effort: in, out, shallow, sharp

Emotional Triggers

Nausea doesn’t always need a physical cause. Tie it to emotion for more impact:

Fear: The kind that’s silent and wide-eyed. They’re frozen, too sick to speak.

Guilt: Their hands are cold, but their face is flushed. Every memory plays like a film reel behind their eyes.

Shock: Something just snapped inside. Their body registered it before their brain did.

Ground It in Action

Don’t just describe the nausea—show them reacting to it.

They press a fist to their mouth, pretending it’s a cough

Their knees weaken, and they lean on a wall, pretending it’s just fatigue

They excuse themselves quietly, then collapse in a bathroom stall

They swallow, again and again, like that’ll keep everything down

Let the Consequences Linger

Even if they don’t actually throw up, the aftermath sticks.

A sour taste that won’t leave their mouth.

A pulsing headache

A body that feels hollowed out, shaky, untrustworthy

The shame of nearly losing control in front of someone else

Let Them Be Human

A character feeling like vomiting is vulnerable. It's real. It’s raw. It means they’re overwhelmed in a way they can’t hide. And that makes them relatable. You don’t need melodrama—you need truth. Capture that moment where the world spins, and they don’t know if it’s panic or flu or fear, but all they want is to get out of their own body for a second.

Don't just write the bile. Write the breakdown.

worst fears

synopsis: one piece characters worst fears in a relationship feat: straw hats (luffy, zoro, nami, usopp, sanji, robin) + ace and law warnings: angst + slight spoiler for ace's past notes: i honestly was a bit stuck for law's part so bear with me PLEASE also yeah not me finally posting things after ages sorry pookies

luffy

losing you.

LUFFY'S worst fear is that when worst comes to worst, he won't be able save you when you need him the most.

although he always tries to protect you, LUFFY has experienced losing loved ones before because he wasn't strong enough, and he never wants it to happen again. he loves everyone in his life so much, especially you, and never wants to lose them. but what if one day he slips up and the cost is losing you forever?

zoro

not being able to protect you.

ZORO'S unwavering loyalty to those he cares about means that he has made it his sworn mission to protect them at all times. in fact, that's practically his main role in the crew - to protect everyone from danger, so he believes he has to always do this right.

he works hard to protect those he cares about, and would never be able to forgive himself if he let something happen to you or was too late to protect you from danger.

he can't predict the future and he can't guarantee your safety at all times, and he hates it. he knows how unpredictable life is and that anything could happen at any moment, which makes him scared of what could happen to you.

nami

being powerless when you need her the most.

NAMI knows what it's like to have no one there to save you or protect you when you're in pain, suffering or in danger. thankfully, she found her way out thanks to her friends, but what if she can't help you?

when it comes to someone she cares about, she can't just rest easy when they need help because she hates seeing those she loves in pain. despite what people think, she would be ready to go above and beyond for someone she loves. she wants to do whatever she can as soon as she can to help you, and she fears that something could happen and make this impossible for her to do.

usopp

being replaced by somebody else.

USOPP wants to believe that he's just the guy you need, but he can't ignore his insecurities that tell him that he's useless and weak all the time. and this feeds into his biggest fear when being with you.

while you don't have an issue with his flaws, to him, his 'negative' qualities and weaknesses mean that he is easy to abandon. he feels like you being with him is just holding yourself back from something - or someone - better.

his worst fear is that you'll have had enough of the 'weak' parts of him, and that one day, you'll get tired of him and just replace him with someone else.

sanji

being a burden to you.

SANJI doesn't just love you - he practically worships your entire being and sees you as flawless and capable of no wrong. he sees you as someone who deserves only the best and nothing less. in comparison, he sees himself as someone who deserves basically nothing.

although you offer warm smiles in his direction and constantly assure him how much you care about him, he can't possibly understand how you could ever love a 'failure' like him.

he hates himself for thinking it, but he sometimes is afraid that your feelings are just fake or out of pity for someone like him. his biggest, worst fear is that he's just a burden to you and someone you're wasting your time on - and that and one day, you'll let him know it by just leaving him for good.

robin

you giving up on her.

ROBIN'S worst fear, in a way, is a little similar to sanji's. she doesn't want to be a burden to you because she can't forget how she was treated her whole life. people around her treated her like a nuisance and a monster just for her existence and where she came from, making her feel like she had nowhere to belong.

it's something she's been trying to unlearn ever since joining the crew, and she knows it's not very likely, but her worst fear is that you won't see her as someone worth fighting for, protecting, or loving anymore. instead, you too will see her as someone who doesn’t belong anywhere.

she's afraid that you'll see her just as how everyone has in her past - a devil whose existence only brings trouble to everyone.

ace

you stop loving him.

ACE has always felt like love is something that needs to be earned, especially for him. sometimes, he can't even believe how lucky he is to have someone like you - someone who doesn't care about the blood that flows in his veins because you know that doesn't matter to who he is.

however, his biggest fear is what happens if that love diminishes for good. he's afraid you'll start to be remember who he exactly is - the son of the world's biggest criminal, the pirate king himself. he's scared that you'll find him a nuisance to be associated with, and stop loving him altogether because of it.

law

disappointing you.

LAW knows that he isn't very openly affectionate and that he struggles to show his his feelings at times, making him appear closed-off and cold to others. although he does know that he really and truly loves you - his worst fear is disappointing you in the relationship because you may feel like he doesn't.

he knows what a healthy and loving relationship is supposed to look like and how other people show love, but he's afraid that he'll fail you by not being able to give you that. he hates the thought of letting you down when you deserve so much better than he is.

Hi Miko, I've been reading your one piece posts and absolutely love how you write the characters! I loved your oblivious reader headcanons, but I wanted to request kind of the opposite - how would Luffy, Sanji and Zoro react to a reader that makes the first move and kisses them first? Thank you 🥰💕

pairings: monster trio x female reader

cw: not proofread, probably contains grammar mistakes, english isn't my first language!!

— (a/n): hiiii!! i'm very sorry for not posting, I've got a lot of requests and i hope I'll get to write them all ^⁠_⁠^ also, I SWEAR I don't have a favourite (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠) -> m.list

— LUFFY

Luffy is so straight forward that a lot of flirting just goes right over his head. You could be batting your eyelashes, throwing hints, or playfully touching his arm, and he'd just grin at you, not having a second thought.

He's naturally touchy with his crew, so when you start getting more physically affectionate, he just kinda rolls with it. Leaning on him? He'll lean right back. Holding his hand? He'll swing it playfully.

The realization hits... Late. You make a habit of teasing him, leaning in close when you talk, poking his face when he pouts, and even calling him cute. After a lot of punches from Nami and disappointed sighs from Usopp, he tilts his head and just goes "Are you flirting with me?"

Luffy starts leaning in close, just to see if you'll back away, and he literally COPIES your every move.

"Does this make your heart race too?" In the most innocent way possible.

You think he's immune to embarrassment, until you pull a bold move and trace his jaw with your fingers. "I bet you'd taste sweet." He actually pauses, eyes wide, and a faint pink tint covering the tip of his ears.

When you finally go in for the kiss, you catch him mid laugh. His eyes widen, and probably for the first time ever, he's speechless. Luffy, the king of energy, is frozen like a statue.

His hand almost instinctively catches your waist, holding you close. You pull back, watching his expression shift from shock, to realization, to a big, goofy grin.

"Do it again!" He doesn't even hesitate before grabbing your face and closing the distance again, kissing you back. Zero hesitation.

After this, he just kisses you whenever he feels like it. Mid conversation? Smooch. Stealing food? Smooch. Looking at him funny? Smooch.

He literally tells the whole crew. No warning, no build up. Just a proud declaration while you stand there, face buried in your hands.

You belong to his crew, but now you're his in a way that makes him extra protective. He wraps his arms around you randomly, pulling you close, his stupid, big grin plastered on his face.

He starts challenging you to kiss attacks. If you surprise him, you win. If he catches you trying, he flips it on you.

Luffy doesn't get embarrassed easily, but he does get attached. Expect him to be glued to your side, smiling like you're the best treasure in the world.

There's no overthinking with Luffy, he just likes being with you, loves that your bold, and will 100% support more surprise kisses in the future.

———☆

You're sitting on the deck with Luffy, sharing a plate of snacks, when you decide you've had enough of his cluelessness. He's laughing about something, something dumb, something that shouldn't make your heart race.

So, without a second thought you lean in and close the distance, pressing a firm kiss to his lips. It's quick, but it's just enough to make Luffy's breath hitch and heartbeat increase.

Luffy blinks at you, his usual bright eyes wide in surprise. He's touching his lips like he's processing the sensation for the first time. Then, slowly, a huge grin spreads across his face.

"Whoa!" He lets out a shaky exhale, and then he grabs your hands, bouncing excitedly. "Do it again!"

"Maybe later." You laugh, shaking your head. He was getting so excited over a simple kiss, and you couldn't help but feel your heart skip a beat at the way his touch felt on your skin.

"Later?! But I wanna do it now!" He doesn't wait, just leans in and captures your lips in another quick, excited kiss. Now, you're the one blushing.

— ZORO

Flirting with Zoro is like flirting with a wall, at least at first. He doesn't react to subtle touches, teasing smirks or even playful winks. He just raises an eyebrow like, What are you doing?

"You're acting weird." You lean in, fingers trailing over his wrist as he tenses, although not pulling away. "I'm just being friendly." "That doesn't feel friendly..."

The moment he does realize you're flirting with him, he goes completely still. His grip on his swords tighten. He legit looks like he just got challenged to a duel.

"Tch, like I care." But then he starts noticing everything. The way you look at him, the way your hand when you pass him something, the way you bite your lip when you tease him.

Zoro acts all cool, but inside? His heart is beating faster, and he doesn't know why. Literally internal panic.

One day, you brush your fingers along his jaw. "I bet you'd look good, all flustered and blushing." He visibly stiffens, eyes darting away. "Shut up." Oh, so he can get flustered.

You finally go for it, grabbing his collar and closing the gap, pulling him in for a kiss. He doesn't react at first, he's too shocked to move a muscle. Then, his hands grip your waist, pulling you just a little closer.

He's not as unaffected as he pretends to be. He exhales slowly, his breathing controlled. But you can feel the slight shake in it, the way his hands tremble slightly and the way his muscles tense.

Zoro pretends it's no big deal, but later, he tilts your chin up and kisses you again. Slower, deeper, like he's trying to memorize the feeling of your lips on his.

He's not big on PDA, but his protective streak triples. Arm around your waist? Always. Pulling you close when someone stares too long? Every time.

He doesn't say sweet things, but his actions scream it.

He still gets caught off guard when you tease him. A kiss on the cheek, and his ears turn red. Whispering something flirty, and his jaw tightens.

Zoro likes a challenge, and now that he's aware of you, he starts fighting back. He corners you and smirks if you get flustered.

He will DIE before admitting how much he likes it.

———☆

Zoro is training, sweat glistening on his skin, swords balanced in a way that makes him look damn near untouchable. You've been teasing him all day, dropping little hints, getting close... But he's been brushing you off, pretending it has no effect on him. Until now.

You walk up to him casually, hiding your smug smirk, standing just close enough for him to feel your presence. "Bet I could throw you off balance."

"Tch, you wish." He fights the urge to roll his eyes, the way his words came out was almost as if he was daring you to try.

Your smirk widens as you step closer to him. Before he could react, you grip his collar, tug him down, lips colliding into each other as you press a confident kiss on his lips.

He freezes. His whole body tenses like he's been struck by lightning. When you pull away, his breath is heavier, and there's a slight pink tint decorating his cheeks.

He glares at you, the grip on his swords tightening. "That was dirty..." He mutters, still trying to calm himself down.

You tilt your head to the side, still smirking. "Did it work?" You taunt him, trying to hold back your laugh, watching his flustered expression carefully.

Zoro exhales slowly, before grabbing your wrist, yanking you back in for another kiss. His lips crashed against yours, and you could feel his smirk pressing against your mouth. This one's deeper, hungrier. When he finally pulls back, a smirk forms on his lips.

"Yeah. It worked."

— SANJI

Sanji flirts with everyone, but when you do it back? He's done for. He's absolutely weak from the start. He nearly drops his cigarette every time you touch him.

"What's wrong, sweetheart? Cat got your tongue?" And he instantly covers his mouth, trying to hide his nosebleed and the way his face turns 50 different shades of red. He short circuits instantly.

He flirts dramatically, and you flirt right back, leaning in close, tracing his jaw, calling him pet names. His whole face BURNS.

You catch him off guard with a soft touch to his cheek, and his whole face erupts in pink. "M-Mademoiselle!"

When you finally kiss him first, his soul leaves his body. His cigarette falls, his legs turn weak, and he grips onto you for dear life.

The moment your lips touch his, Sanji's entire body locks up. His heart is hammering, and his mind is screaming in ten different languages. His brain kinda goes offline for a few seconds, but he'll snap out of it eventually!!

He covers his face with both hands, trying to suppress the absolutely ridiculous grin forming. "Mon Dieu! You're too much for me..." And his legs wobble like he might pass out.

His hands remain on your waist, but he doesn't pull you in, not yet. He wants to play it cool, but his flushed face and trembling hands give it away.

For the next hour, he is completely useless in the kitchen. He keeps chopping ingredients wrong, spacing out and giggling like an absolute fool. When someone asks what's wrong, his only reply is "I've been blessed by an angel today."

After the kiss, he becomes extra aware of your presence. A simple brush of your fingers sends a shiver down his spine. If you just lean against him, he has to take deep breaths.

The next time you tease him, he gets his revenge, tilting your chin up with his fingers and giving you the slowest, most knee weakening kiss of your life. "Two can play this game, mon amour."

Before, he was a hopeless romantic. Now? He's a hopelessly attached romantic. "Oh, you like me?" You tease, and you see the way his lips curl into a smirk. "Like? Darling, I adore you."

He was already treating you like royalty, but now it's way worse. Pulling out your chair, offering you the best cuts off food, whispering sweet nothings into your ear 24/7. It's endless.

You kiss him unexpectedly? He still gets heart eyes, but now he pulls you right back for another. "Don't start something you're not ready to finish, darling."

Completely, utterly, shamelessly yours. Sanji doesn't even try to hide it, he's absolutely whipped. He lets everyone know, the whole crew has to deal with it.

———☆

Sanji is flirting with you as usual, leaning close and murmuring sweet things. "Ah, ma chérie, if you keep looking at me like that, I might fall apart."

You rolled your eyes, a mischievous smirk forming on your lips. You grabbed his tie, fingers twisting in the fabric, yanking him down with a sudden tug. He stumbled slightly, cut off guard, but there was no time to react. Your lips crashed against his, the space between you vanishing as you pressed your body flush against his, tilting your head and deepening the kiss. His breath hitched as his hands instinctively found your waist, pulling you even closer.

Your lips parted just enough to tease, to taste. Your fingers slid up from his tie to tangle in his hair, nails grazing his scalp as you pulled him in, not letting go.

You finally parted from him, just barely, lips still hovering close and over each other. He's completely frozen. Mouth slightly open, cigarette hanging dangerously close to falling, his eyes wide in surprise, face completely red.

His whole body shakes, and he nearly collapses on the floor. "I can die happy!" He shouts out dramatically, both hands pressed firmly on his chest as he struggles to breathe.

Later, when he finally recovers, he pulls you aside, trapping you against the wall, kissing you so deep it leaves you breathless.

"Not so easy when I'm the one taking control, hm, mon amour?"
