TDDK HC TIME!!!! (Based On The Picture Below)

Funnily enough, when they first meet past the edges of the Sol system, the aliens like the humans.

None of the humans were prepared for this.

The humans prepared for decades- for centuries! to contact life out in the black, and be judged harshly for their past.

The aliens, almost to the one, seemed delighted with humanity and everything they entailed. Good, bad, and ugly.

“You see, we heard you calling out for long, long, long… we could not find where you called out from. Now we have! You called for so long, and now we meet you! It is good to know you! We have tried so hard to find you and say, Hello!”

The messages Earth sent out, just in case there was anyone out there to hear, to extend reassurance that they simply were not alone was received always with delight. And they sparked a soft race to find the origin of such a kind and curious signal into the vastness of the universe.

Nalu AU where the Eclipse Gate worked exactly the way it was supposed to.

Anna Heartfillia travelled through the portal with the dragon slayers in the year X777, meeting Layla and all her Celestial Spirits on the other side. Layla insisted Anna raised the dragon slayers on the sprawling Heartfillia property, in the woods surrounding the estate.

She would take her daughter, Lucy, with her to visit Anna and the children, bringing gifts at Christmas and birthdays, taking sweets and cakes throughout the summer months so the children could play while she sought advice from her wise ancestor.

Lucy was frightened but enamoured by these strange, powerful children; and looked forward to visiting them with her mother. Especially the little fire dragon who had more energy than the others combined, and who would smile wider than anyone when she would take little baskets of treats for them.

She was never to go alone though, the woods are dangerous, and easy to get lost in. One night though, after an argument with her father, she snuck out and ran, as far as she could, into the dark, cold winter's night. She got lost in the woods, turned about by thick rows of identical black tree trunks, and soon she couldn't even see the stars.

She sat down on the dirty, cold ground and cried and cried. Alone, lost, terrified. Until she saw a golden flicker in the night, a flame that stood out against the inpenetrable darkness, and grew closer and closer. Natsu found her, with his unwavering bubbly spirit. "Are ya lost Lucy? C'mon don't cry! I'll take you home! I knew I smelt something funny out there."

He did take her home, and their friendship grew. Soon she just had to call from her window, no matter what time, and she'd see a little flame outside in the grounds. He'd take her on adventures, show her birds' nests, fishing spots, a strange egg he found that hatched into a little flying blue cat, and hollowed out trees they could just about fit in together.

As they grew older, her wanderlust never stopped, and they'd venture out further, into towns and villages, where there was always some issue that required both his magic power and her intelligence to solve. They'd pour over Sorcerer Weeklys together, and one guild kept appearing. Fairy Tail.

After her mother died in X790, Jude drew into his work further, neglecting Lucy unless he needed her to appear in a lavish ballgown in front of esteemed business guests. She saw Natsu less and less, until one winter's night, a year later, her mother's keys around her hip, everything she cared about in a little pink backpack; she called out to him, frightened it had been so long and he wouldn't respond. Then, she saw that little glowing flame and all her worries disappeared. She asked him to run away with her, their hearts set on one place. Magnolia. Fairy Tail.

That hands post going around just made me realize that there's this incredible thing Iñaki does with his hands as Luffy where he is never content to just touch things. He can never just grab something and let go. He strokes things. He gently runs his fingers across them, like he wants to touch as much of them as possible. And nowhere is this more apparent than with Zoro. Like

Iñaki, why. why would Luffy need to run his fingers along the entire length of Zoro's calf.

why is Luffy stroking Zoro's titty in this incredibly emotional moment

Just. The whole thing.

The only thing I can come up with is that touch is just a Luffy Love Language, with the softest, gentlest touches being reserved for those who are truly special to him.

And no one is more special to him than Zoro.

I, Roronoa Zoro, vow to stand by your side from now until the end. Until we find the One Piece or die trying. So bring on the marines or pirates. You're my captain, Luffy, and I'm your first mate.

I need a word for "not a secret relationship, our friends are just idiots." Like, is there a tag for that? Because I know there's a tag for "not in a relationship, our friends just might be smarter than we are."
