There's magic hidden in my bones (It suspiciously feels like home) by Darkapik
Fandoms: One Piece (Anime & Manga)
18 Jul 2023
Tags
Summary
The legends say: If you give your name to the Fae, you now belong to them.
Outlook took a Fae child. There is no mistaking the eyes of the younger kid.
'Uh? Who are you ?'
In this land of Old and New, every action has consequences.
'Now that we're brothers, I should introduce myself.'
'Hello Ace, Luffy. My name is Sabo.'
What makes a family? Is it your blood?
It's in this cell that Outlook's child dies and Sabo is born. They'll never understand the wilderness underneath his skin.
Your name? Your memories?
Cleverly, the Commander hot on his trail leads him right into a dead-end.
"Listen, I don't know what I did to offend you but we can talk!" Empty hands raised up, he tries to placate the guy. It seems to anger him further.
"You don't know what you did?" A hand slams against the wall, freezing him in place.
"Sabo."
"How- how do you know my name?"
Or is it the fact that no matter how far you lose yourself, they'll never let you go?
"Hey Ace? I love you." He untangles before Ace tries to grab him. "Tell it to Luffy for me okay?"Bookmarked by ChildofApollo72

Summary
"That's a bit arrogant." Ace squinted at his baby brother while his other brother laughed.
"How do you even know what that means?" he growled, and Luffy simply pointed to Sabo, who now looked proud. "Nice to see you're picking up a vocabulary, Ace certainly isn't going to learn." The freckled kid had a deep scowl and huffed.
"Vocab…ulary - does that mean all the words I know?" The blond nodded frantically, elated to know Luffy was taking traits from more than just Ace. "I want a big vocabulary like Sabo cus' he sounds cool!" One brother was certainly enjoying this more than the other.
"Well, I should start teaching you how to read anyways, might as well use it as an opportunity to expand your vocabulary. Ace's as well."
Luffy had sparkles in his eyes, bouncing on the balls of his feet at the thought of sounding cool like Sabo.

Summary
Luffy gasps delightedly, head wiping around to stare up at Whitebeard with wide, excited eyes. “Ace tried to kill you too?!” he shouts. Behind him, the party doesn’t necessarily stop so much as pause, focusing in on the growing spectacle before them. Oblivious, Luffy continues on. “How long?”
Whitebeard looks down at the young pirate captain that’s practically vibrating in place. Then he looks to the blond revolutionary that is also staring up at him, gaze considering and keen. Then to his second division commander who now has his face in his hands, ears red where they poke out of his hair. Finally, he glances at the rest of his children, out of loop and confused, yet intrigued, nonetheless.
...
..
.
Or, Ace dies (of embarrassment), Sabo is the dramatic middle child, Luffy is having a blast, and everyone else is just along for the ride.

I'll be Rising with the Morning Tide by Acewithapaintbrush
Fandoms: One Piece (Anime & Manga)
23 Oct 2023

Summary
Shanks has been acting weird ever since he ate that stupid fruit.
"Are you angry with me?" Luffy asks one day when he notices Shanks staring at him again with that weird look on his face. It's a look that makes a stupid, sticky feeling grow in Luffy's chest that just won't go away.
The pirate blinks and his eyes drift to the side, a shift that has become as familiar and as annoying as the look. The sticky feeling grows bigger and Luffy clenches his small fist around the pencil in his hand.
******************
Devil Fruits have a mind of their own. Something Shanks finds out the hard way.

Summary
“Ace and Sabo were kidnapped from Dawn. Whitebeard took them. Dadan just called Dragon to tell him. He’s on his way to Dawn to pick her and Makino up, they want to have words. But he felt you needed to know it first.”
And oh. OH.
Now he understands, rage washing over his features in an instant, eyes going brown – red – brown, before settling down, Nika pushed back in his core – not now, not now, not when it’s not needed, not yet but soon -, his haki bursting with vengeance – mindful of the Sunny, of his nakama, but raging across the Ocean, far enough to make everyone who feels it fear. Sabo and Ace were supposed to be safe, hidden until they were old enough to sail, the Strawhats flag waved high above Dawn island, in Foosha, on Mount Corvo and Whitebeard had dared on his territory of all things?
“Set course,” he orders softly.

Summary
"What do you mean by 'Nika'?" Sabo further asked. Luffy groggily opened his eyes, and spoke, "Did someone call me?" Garp frowned at that.
"Luffy, your name is Luffy, not that!!!" He said with anger. Luffy who sat up now glared at Garp before frowning, "But why do I need to hide my real name?!!!" He asked and crossed his arms on his chest. "I don't understand at all!!"
"Your real name is Nika?" Ace asked to which Luffy nodded happily. Garp scratched his head in worry.
"Fine!" Garp said, "Listen to me!" Luffy looked at Garp and the others even did the same. "If the marines ever come to know about your real name, and if by any chance the World Government came to know about your existence they will kill you in spot."
"Why will they kill coz of my name?" Luffy frowned but soon burst out laughing, "And do you think," Luffy's eyes flickered to golden, "they can kill me?" Luffy started laughing hard, his one hand on his stomach and the other on his eyes.

Summary
Ace had to keep good on his promise to Luffy. He couldn't go after Blackbeard and throw his life away when the only brother he had left was counting on him living. That meant Blackbeard would roam free and Ace wasn't going to stop him. As much as it hurt to let Thatch's death go, he knew if he died too it would hurt Luffy even more.
Or
Luffy and Ace switch places at Marineford.

“Sabo?” A deep voice asked, wavering like a mirage.
Sabo staggered, whipping around gracelessly at the sound. Something about the voice made his name sound right, made it finally fully fit in a way it had never quite seemed to before.OR One Piece Fae AU with a bunch of ASL feels

Summary
And when Luffy’s arms retracted back to himself and started shrinking, air hissing every which way, Ace assumed it was because Luffy was going to try another method and thus took the opportunity to dive straight into his little brother’s space in this moment of vulnerability to knock him out with one clean punch—only to skid straight to a stop as the steam cleared and Ace came face to face with a small Luffy staring belligerently right up at him with his little head only barely reaching past Ace’s knees.

Summary
He’s not close enough. He’s not going to make it. Even if he managed to shake off the soldiers in front of him and just threw his whole body at full-speed between Luffy and Akainu to take the blow, he wouldn’t get there fast enough. He doesn’t have enough time. He’s going to lose another brother, only this time it’s going to happen right in front of his eyes, from seven—five—three feet away.
He’s ten years old again and learning what grief is. He’s ten years old and all that’s left of Sabo is the letter in his hand and a shared dream and the promise that Ace will look after their silly baby brother while he’s gone.
“DON’T TOUCH HIM!” Ace screams. It’s pure desperation. It’s the last human thing he’ll ever say if Luffy dies here.

Summary
After going through physical and mental abuse by his sensei and getting kicked out of several foster homes, 14-year-old Zoro ends up in a terrible group home. Not willing to give up his passion, he breaks into a dojo to train in secret. When the owner, Dracula Mihawk, discovers the talented boy, he decides to train him. When he learns the details of Zoro’s situation, he even decides to take the teen in.
Mihawk has made a terrible mistake. He had thought offering Roronoa a better option than a group home would be enough, but he quickly realizes the boy needs more help than the sword-master can offer. There is one person he could ask for help. Someone he hadn’t spoken to in a long time… But surely Shanks would be willing to help him, right?

…as witnessed, told, and suffered through by the Bravest Warrior of the Sea, Usopp.
Sanji loves Zoro. Zoro loves Sanji. They are also, somehow, obliviously, infuriatingly, in an unrequited love with each other.
Usopp thinks he can do something about it. He really should have had more self-preservation instinct than that.
