I read this a while back but it was a very nice re-read—
"You could weigh the whole world up against him and it wouldn't be enough." SHUT UPPP AHHHHHHHHHHH

SPOILERS FOR CHAPTER 2 OF 'Young Like The Sea' by @mangogreent
Had the priveledge to be commisioned by Lake for the art at the end of chapter 2 shoutout Lake ur so cool and the prompt for this was very fun to work on B))
There r two different versions but the difference is very subtle lel (its in the eyes)
I'm crying, screaming, throwing up your fics are absolutely incredible!! I can't get enough of stories where Luffy dies first, but him just straight up disappearing with no clues or answers is a new level of pain (your "i hope they never find him" tag kills me 😭. I'm so happy he returns but I can't help imagining the strawhats spending their whole lives with that little bit of hope that Luffy will achieve the impossible and return to them again. Then as each one of them reaches the end of their long lives, about to close their eyes for the last time, they swear they can hear a bright laugh and feel warm rays of sunlight soothing their pain 😭😭😭
If you haven't already read this, I think you'd love this comic:

aaaa thank you so much! death is too permanent so i just needed the strawhats to have a little taste *unmajors your character death* but HALF OF ME WANTS THEM TO FIND HIM AND THE OTHER 😈
also the 2nd half of that paragraph WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT please i cant take it - can you imagine them, close to death, but the only thing they feel is relief? because at long last, they will see him again? lets stop here before i burst into tears
I JUST FINISHED READING THAT AND OH MY GOD - THIS IS TOO CRUEL thank u for recommending that - im wailing weeping banging my fist on the floor on my knees ITS JOEVER HES GONE i liked how it was a good mix of comedy and angst, rather than only the latter.
again, thank you so much for reading! your support makes me super happy and i cant stop smiling!!! <3

working the nightshift at wacdonalds while your captain commits theft
Ok but....imagine if the strawhats wait the rest of their lives to see Luffy but he never comes home. After literally waiting a lifetime they all expect for him to he the first thing they see but nope still no sign of him anywhere. Thus the strawhats go on one more adventure looking for their wayward captain in the afterlife! They hold off spending time with their important loved ones (kuina, bellemere, dr. hirulk, so on) to look for him 😭😭😭. They def run into Ace and Sabo who are on their own journey for the same reason as the strawhats 😭.
wheres the fic anon *grabs u by the throat* ANON WHERES THE FIC that is so bittersweet tho. everyone luffys ever helped coming together to look for him AHHHH
on another note, someone commented something similar to this and im just repeating this here: i wont be able to explore other options besides the one i have planned, but id be totally down to make sidestories/extra/deleted scenes if anyone would like to specific scenes i couldnt cram in
that would only be AFTER i complete the actual fic tho 😭😭😭
