Shanks x GN!Reader. Mostly Shanks's POV. 1704 words. This is fluff. Comments welcome. :3
Desc: It's Shanks's birthday but it starts to seem like only he remembered, from his perspective.
Shanksâs consciousness slowly stirs as he wakes up, it's his birthday. He thinks it is, anyway. He does actually keep track, especially since itâs also Mihawkâs. âWonder if I should go visit himâŚâ He mumbles to himself as he gets dressed. Thereâll probably be a party for his birthday, right? I mean heâs not exactly super excited for a birthday party but he wouldnât be against one per say. Theyâve had small celebrations of his birthday, nothing grand after 25, but this should be special since it's the one before his 40s, thatâs special. Youâre here too, extra special. However when he peeks out of his room, no party poppers. Well thatâs fine, they could be hard to clean up anyway. He heads into the kitchen and there are no balloons, or cake.
âLooking for something, Captain? Youâre up earlyâ Lucky Roux asks him, still not done with breakfast.
âUh.. err..â Well maybe the cake is too much. Heâs an old man now, forcing your already busy cook to make you a sweet treat at his age would be immature. âNothing.â Lucky gives him a raised brow but goes back to cooking, Shanks settling on the table to wait for breakfast.. which is uneventful too. No one wishes him happy birthday, or gives him extra food, or is nicer. Nothing, but itâs okay. Decorations are childish, giving birthday wishes is too. Theyâre pirates. Thereâs only so much you can do for a single personâs birthday on a ship, even if heâs the captain. His birthday wish would be just that today is a good day, and today is a good day, no pirate or marine attacks or anything. Thatâs all he needs. When he goes looking for you he spots Hongo instead.
âOh, (Y/n) went ahead. Said that they knew someone on the island weâre gonna dock at and couldnât wait to see them.â Thatâs.. not ideal. So youâre not here and theyâll only be at that island once itâs almost dark.
âAt least theyâre happy. I wonder who it is.â Shanks thinks to himself, feeling bummed but still wondering who it is. When they dock the people are friendly and there's no dangerous weather. Youâre talking to someone and not to Shanks but the alcohol at this bar seems good. Everyone is happy, enjoying themselves, including you. This is the best birthday present. Eventually he walks outside in the night with his mug, alone and leaning forward onto the wooden railing around the bar.
âHappy birthday.â Well he was alone. Your voice proves he no longer isnât, his eyes trailing to you. You remembered, though that means youâve been off with someone else even if you knew it was Shanksâs birthday.
âAw jeez you remembered something like that?â He chuckles, taking a sip from his mug. Weird, it doesnât taste nice, even if he can tell it factually is. Maybe heâs just not in an alcohol mood. âIâve already had almost 40 of them.â Thatâs right. There are much more dire things in the world going on. In the grand scheme of things, someone like him, and something like his birthday, isnât important.
âI hope to celebrate many more.â You rustle in your bag and pull out a wrapped box, putting it in front of him. âSorry Iâve been ignoring you, Iâve been trying to get this perfect.â His eyes widen and he puts down his mug quicker than he intended.
âIs this for me?â So you werenât just ignoring him, you were getting something for him! His eyes twinkle looking at the present.
âIs there another red headed captain having a birthday today?â He puts his hand to the wrapping, faltering. âItâs okay, just pull the ribbon.â He tugs the ribbon a bit and the wrapping falls apart, he didnât have to struggle with one hand to get it open. He opens the box and thereâs a clip, golden with a yellow flower accessory next to it.
âA hair clip?â
âYou can put it on.â Youâre right, he struggles a bit at first but the clip is easy to handle and clips his bangs out of his face. One half of the clip for one side, the other for the other side, then they snap together at the back of his head. âThe flower is optional, I thought it would look pretty in your hair.â He looks at the flower, then puts it on. You pull out a pocket mirror and he looks at himself.
âIt looks too fancy for me.â He mumbles. âAnd Iâm still a pirate captain and emperor, I can't be going out with a flower in my hair.â You try to take it and he pulls back from you. âHey, no take backs.â
âRelax.â You crack up a bit and he gets a little embarrassed.
âItâs my present.â He pouts, trying to play it off as you take the flower, clipping it onto his shirt pocket instead. âOh.â
âIs that manly enough for you?â
âPerhaps.â His eyes twinkles as he looks down at the accessory, pleased. His hair is out of his face and now heâs got a pretty flower on his chest.
âItâs true you may not look fancy enough for the occasion though. Missing just a little something.â He looks back up at you when you speak, then feels something placed on his head.
âThatâs better.â Shanks looks up to see Beckman, who adjusts the birthday hat strap under the captainâs jaw. Limejuice peeks out from inside the bar, blowing a party horn and wearing a party hat.
âCome in, Captain Birthday Boy.â He says and you watch as the redheadâs eyes widen and he runs inside to see that the bar he was in before has now been decorated with balloons and streamers. His cheeks are tinted with wonder and he gasps lightly.
âWe knew youâd start moping outside when you thought everyone forgot your birthday, so we took the chance to decorate.â Beckman explains, pulling a chair open for the captain to sit on.
âI was not moping.â He states with a huff, sitting down. âI just needed some air.â
âYou were moping.â You pull up beside him, rubbing your cheek against his affectionately. âJust a tiny bit. Itâs okay.â Lucky sets down a large cake in front of the captain, decorated and with candles lit on top. You clap and then everyone starts to sing happy birthday, Shanks immediately getting embarrassed.
âYou donât-â He turns to Beckman, whoâs also singing, then to you. âI..â You give him a warm smile and he sits there until the song is done. Once itâs ended everyone claps and he fidgets sheepishly before blowing out the candles. Yasopp sneaks behind him and reaches over to Shanksâs head until his wrist is gripped harshly and he turns to see your murderous gaze.
âDonât.â You mouth to him and the sniper quickly backs off once heâs released. Shanks is given a nice slice of cake, it's wet.
âWhat is it?â He asks. It smells good, a twinge of alcohol. You motion for him to try it and he takes a bite, his eyes shining. The flavor of cake, sweet milk, and rum exploding in his mouth. He shouldnât like sweet things, but this is good. Plus has alcohol so itâs not childish at all, thatâs what he tells himself as he scarfs more down. You stare at him, pleased. He looks cute like this, happy, like heâs a boy again. A day where heâs the focus as different crew members give him their presents and he eats his favorite foods. Right now the world revolves around him, heâs the birthday boy. Your clip ends up helping a lot too, no food or cream in his hair; and no one made fun of his flower. They werenât even allowed to think of making fun of it, âless they incur your wrath. By the end of it heâs wearing a comfy sweater, warm socks, his birthday hat is a little off center, and his heart and stomach are full. It isnât much long after that he yawns.
âCâmon. Youâre getting tired, right?â You lean beside him. Itâs his party, his day, he doesnât need to keep drinking or entertain the crowd even if heâs tired.
âThatâs..â He hesitates, this party is for him. Shouldnât he have to enjoy all of it? The food isnât done and thereâs still a good chunk of people that are lively.
âItâs your choice, Shanks. Do you want to go to bed?â You look him in the eyes, understanding. You look so comforting, itâs making him sleepier. âIt looks like a yes.â He hums, almost looking behind him as if for approval from the rest until you stop him with a hand on his chin. âItâs you.â
âMe..â This is hard. For him? For him. This is his choice that he makes for him that isnât in thought of anyone else. He slowly stands up, still hesitant until you grab his hand and lead him away. This bar must be connected to an inn, but he doesnât think much about it as you bring him to a room. He trusts you, you must've prepared this beforehand. Once heâs inside you lay him down on the bed and wow.. it's like his body immediately recognizes all its tiredness and relaxes. He lets out a content sigh, closing his eyes and feeling you lay beside him. His face is peaceful, but you can do more. Your arms wrap around and hold him, cuddling him, and as you thought you feel him metaphorically turn to mush. âThank you.â You hear him mumble quietly and you kiss the top of his head.
âI love you, Shanks, my birthday boy.â Your words, your heartbeat, your warmth, all of it has him slowly falling asleep, feeling warm all cozy inside and out. This is bliss. His last thought as his mind goes to sleep.
âSo cute..â You think to yourself as you hear his breathing stabilize and feel his head roll limp onto your chest. Heâs held onto you vulnerably like youâll protect him from everything. You plant a kiss on his forehead, because at least for this night, you will.
I know this is late since his birthday is on the 9th of March but I wasnt in a writing mood so i wrote this late. Isn't Shanks a cutiepie? We need more cutiepie characters, if i do say so myself.
Regarding the Shuggy thing the only time they are referred to as âbrothersâ to my knowledge is one time when a marine says that Buggy and Shanks have a brotherly bond. However, this is during a scene where that marine is talking about how powerful and intimidating Buggy is so the joke is kinda that the marines have no idea what is actually going on. However, this has been used a lot by people who dislike Shuggy to try and discredit the ship by calling it incest.
Yeah brotherly bond could just mean a brother like bond, nothing like ace and luffy claiming eachother as brothers. If they were claimed brothers surely there would be a scene where they did the ritual like luffy and ace did since there have been some flashbacks of shanks and buggy. Maybe in canon they would find it weird since maybe theyd see eachother as brother like friends but brother like friends are still not the same as brothers
Pick: $1000 billion trillion jagillion OR run shanks over with a steam roller (slowly, feet first)
Id pick the money so i could pay to do it multiple times.
No matter how much it pains me to say i dont think we're gonna get mom content on Luffy, atleast not much. The same way we havent for any character. I was reading the SBSes and i got so upset I forgot to SS but Oda was asked why there isnt any mom content of them being alive or even there and he answered with some shit like "That's because Mom is the opposite of fun." Im so tired of misogyny ruining stuff bro. Women are the ones that have to make the entire baby, organs and blood, inside their bodies; and birth them. That isnt to mention how much it changes their body and brain afterwards, yet theyre always the ones ignored and the dads get all the content. I just want to be able to watch an action anime and not have to worry about misogyny. Its such a mood killer leaving out half of the population in media or minizing them just because theyre considered not "interesting enough". So tired of it. I just wanna enjoy one piece and not have to be slapped in the face with the reminder that no matter how much i love the show and Oda that theres serious problems about him. He's much better than other creators of course, especially for being from an asian country, but its still bad. It bums me out. A lot. All the dads had to do was just have a little fun and women do the rest but theyre just not fun enough to write apparently. It doesnt even matter that hes a guy and maybe he'll do rough writing women. I would rather him try, he wrote robin and shes amazingly written so he has the potential he just doesnt use it. Usually animes will atleast mention the mothers but theres just such a huge abundance of mother erasure in OP its impossible to miss. Dont even get me started on the families oda introduces and then the mom just is already not there or considered. Like what. Is she just the birth giver and not even considered a part of the family to him. Just not important. Was he raised by a single father or something. Are they not human. 50% of the population guys. 50%
