Is it too much to ask for something great?

Landscape photographer!Shanks x Farmer!Mihawk (but actually the owner of the lands he tills)

Shanks going out of the city to find inspiration again only to find it in a quaint and seemingly abandoned mansion with vast lands with only an eccentric farmer as its caretaker.

Seeing Mihawk, Shanks’ thinking of changing careers and be a model photographer instead with how effortlessly breathtaking the other man is even if the subject of the photo is the garden he takes care of and Mihawk just happens to be in the picture.

1) Sailing across the treacherous seas in a coffin just to show the bounty poster of a boy mentioned long ago that Shanks will see eventually

‘Maybe he’ll be in the mood to celebrate and I’ll be invited for a drink or two.’ -> it worked

2) Saying sorry to Akagami (who was not yet present) then attacking Luffy, dramatically chasing him throughout Marineford, casually showing off his power. Why tho? For a conversation starter the next time they see each other?

“Hey there Red Hair. I tried to kill the boy you think of as a son but Fate has other plans. How about you? Do you have any plans, tonight, perhaps?”

Stop it Mihawk, it’s like you have a crush on your ex 😭

Also me: Wow. This must be Shanks’ view every time he—

“Yo! Zoro long time no see!” (Just like how he greeted Mihawk in the Luffy bounty poster scene)

and the crew: Why are you being familiar with the red haired emperor?

It will imply 2 things:

1) They have met before. Zoro met Shanks even before Shanks saw Luffy again.

2) The only possible time that they could have met was during the 2 years separation of the crew. And where was Zoro this whole time? 👀

-

Zoro: He lived with us in Kuraigana for those two years.

Zoro to Shanks: You still owe me a rematch!

Shanks: How’s your Dad!

Zoro: I don’t know. How’s your husband? I’ll be coming for his title the next time I see him.

And the Mugiwara crew is left reeling with all the multiple implications of that conversation 🤪

“A drop of semen has more lives than a drop of blood. Why don’t vampires suck dick?”

Finally a Mihawk look up ! (also croc!) Look how pouty he is 😭 He’s the one looking up but he’s still the one looking down at you.

Pastel Goth fam is complete! With step dad Shanks 🥹

But Mihawk, you don’t need to hunt this particular rabbit! It’s very willing 👀 and look at how smug Shanks look. 🤣

With this statement, my imagination went wild 🫠

Pic shows Roger when he was younger. That hair (those bangs thingy) looks very similar to S-Hawk, Mihawk’s clone.

Instead of Rayleigh (one of the more famous theories) being Mihawk’s father, it’s actually Roger.

And in Roger’s execution, Mihawk’s there. (He’s even in the middle, why not Buggy??? 🧐)

When Mihawk got older, he got the mini version of Roger’s mustache.

In conclusion, Mihawk is Roger’s first born and half-brother of Ace. 🤪 (also a certain fic in Ao3 has implanted this seed in my brain that has this dynamic)

I miss the times when they make character songs 🥹 I wish they made some random song and made Shanks and Mihawk sing 😂 Like a song during the party of Luffy’s bounty poster? Them drunkenly singing 😂

His voice is actually soothing. This song is kinda partnered with Zoro’s song. Father and son 🥹

Meanwhile, Shanks…

Even Mihawk sang! Why couldn’t you?! Someone said in the comments that he’s so drunk he can’t recognize /the/ straw-hat 😭 also there was a mentioned theory that he has multiple straw hats that he gives to people 😭 ‘You could be the next Pirate King. Here’s a straw hat!’

Mom, over hearing it: Because he’s gay! He’s wearing it!

Tiktok video continues: “… Mihawk used to have a wife that is now deceased…”

Mom: Wife?! Shouldn’t it be husband??? (*high pitched incredulous tone*)

My mom’s more flabbergasted by the idea of Mihawk having a wife than him dressing up and having a husband😂 her headcanon not mine 😗

This pose??? The single tiddie showing, the abs, the flank and that waist??? And he’s just reaching for Yoru from his back? What a slut (affectionate)

(Shanks can totally wrap his one big yaoi hand around that 👀)

Shanks is the current strongest one in the verse to be able to resist that 😭

(Or if Mihawk didn’t turn around, Shanks would have followed him and show them a real Marineford Incident.)

And it’s just Mihawk and Shanks whacking each other’s balls (😏), making it everybody’s business.

Maybe that’s why we haven’t seen their duel 👀

While watching the bamfness of Shanks (👌🏽), my thoughts were just:

‘Wow. How spectacular of a man Mihawk must be to be able to make such a powerful man simp for him 🔥🔥🔥

‘Wow. Such power couple.’

and yes I get why mihawk would be attracted to shanks… 🤪 (even though he might look like someone who doesn’t take a bath daily 🫠)
