“Thank you for taking care of my brother. I’m amazed you can handle his temper.” Sabo said with a grin and Ace pouted slightly.

“I’m not that bad.” He muttered but Thatch decided to put in his two cents.

“Ace. You tried to kill Pops the first 100 days you were here. Your temper is pretty bad.”

“Oh fuck off!” Ace said, glaring at Thatch and Sabo laughed.

“That’s how you know Ace will get attached! He tries to kill you!” Sabo said while he laughed, holding his stomach.

“Wait are you serious?” Haruta asks, wanting more information because Ace barely gave any.

“Sabo don’t you dare..” Ace muttered, glaring at his blond brother. But obviously Sabo didn’t care.

“Oh yea. He tried pushing me out of trees more times than I could count. And for what, three months? He tried to kill Luffy.”

“You tried to kill him to!”

“Once! That was only once!” The two brothers bicker about the whole “killing their little brother” situation. While everyone just stared at them.

“You tried to kill your little brother. You’re nuts. Why did you try to kill him!?” Thatch asked. Sabo and Ace both looked over with a blank face.

“He was annoying.” They said at the same time, and Thatch just threw up his hands.

He hadn't been expecting her. His world may have always been made up of variables with absolutely <I>zero</I> center-point for a constant to take hold, to lay down roots but <i>there she is</I> with a smile just for him and a softness in her expression that may or may not have been there before they'd started seeing each other regularly. Before she'd started telling him about where she'd come from, the little stories that make up the whole of her that he doesn't think he'll ever hear the end of, or want to in the first place. 

They sit on the roof watching the sun set beneath the city skyline, in the sort of companionable silence that he doesn't feel the <i>need</I> to fill with the sound of his own voice, silly little nothings just to make her laugh, even if there's <I>never</I> going to be a moment in which he doesn't want to try, regardless; in that silence he swears he can feel his heart knocking against his ribs a rhythm that betrays the whole of him, the gooseflesh that breaks out across his skin when she touches him, the butterflies that crop up in his stomach when she <i>smiles.</I> 

Summary: Ace and Sabo go to Laser Tag together with a few friends and Luffy. Things happen and needless to say Sabo is a little shit and Ace is a flustered mess.

Relationship:  Sabo and Ace

Notes: While I was dealing with some medical issues, I asked @lovelybutnot-ablankcanvas to give me a prompt to write while I was waiting for some answers. And they send a prompt of 

“Take me laser tagging and then push me into a corner and kiss me. Then shoot me and walk away.”

This was the result :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was actually Sabo’s idea to go to Laser Tag. Ace wasn’t against it, it seemed fun and honestly he’s always wanted to go. They invited a few others to tag along, Luffy was first since he was in the room with them when they made the plan. The others being Thatch, Izo, and Koala. Izo didn’t want to go at first but Thatch convinced him somehow. They did try to get Marco to come along, but he had work and wouldn’t be able to make it.

At the laser tag building, Sabo and Ace were waiting at the entrance for everyone to get there. Luffy had already went inside to play some of the arcade machines scattered around the place. Ace was on his phone, leaning against Sabo who had his arm resting around Ace’s shoulders.

“Just got a text from Thatch, they should be here soon since they got Koala a couple of minutes ago.” Ace explains and Sabo hums, gently rubbing the freckled mans shoulder.  

“Sounds good. I bet Luffy’s going nuts in there waiting to run around in the arena.”

“I’m sure he’s ok. He has plenty of games to keep him company, I’m just worried about the mini food court. It ain’t gonna last long with us three in there.” Sabo couldn’t help but grin at his boyfriends comment. Knowing it’s so true.

“Better hope Thatch is bringing snacks. While me and you are bad, Luffy is a whole other problem.” Ace laughs at this, leaning closer into Sabo’s side.

“He’s the reason why we need a damn bank account dedicated to food cost.”

“And one for medical bills…” Ace just rolls his eyes at that.

“He’s such an accident hazard..” Sabo rubs his face at just thinking of the amount of times Luffy has ended up with a broken bone or needing stitches.

“Hey guys!!” Looking over they see Thatch, Izo, and Koala walking over to them, Thatch waving at them. Ace waves back, but doesn’t move out of his spot next to Sabo.

“You guys didn’t have to wait out here for us. Where’s Luffy??” Koala asks once they get over.

“Inside playing at the arcade, it was better than him sitting with us and risk him running off to do who knows what.” Ace explains and the others laugh. He pulls away from Sabo’s side, but takes his hand to replace the contact. The group starts to head inside and to the floor Laser Tag was on, having some small talk about things that have happened at work and such. Once inside Ace looks around for their brother, praying the boy didn’t do anything stupid when they were away. Luckily he was just sitting on top of the race car games. Letting go of Sabo’s hand, he heads over to Luffy.

“Go get our rounds set up while I get Luffy.” He calls out to Sabo, getting a ‘alright’ before getting close to Luffy.

“Yo Luffy, you ready for some Laser Tag?” Luffy instantly jumped up at this with a large grin.

“Hell yea let’s go!” Luffy jumps off the fake bike an grabs Ace by the arm, dragging him over to the others at the counter.

“Jeez Luffy relax! You haven’t been waiting that long!” Ace protests but goes nothing to pull his arm away from his little brother. Once at the counter Sabo looks over and chuckles at them.

“Excited Luffy?”

“Yea!! This is gonna be so fun, come on let’s go!” Luffy starts running for the entrance but both Sabo and Ace grab him before he can.

“Hold on Luffy, we still have to wait for our time.” Sabo explains, holding up some small papers in his hand.

“How long do we have to wait??” Luffy tilts his head with a pout. Sabo chuckles and ruffles his hair gently.

“We only have to wait a few more minutes, the next game is very soon you just have to wait a little longer ok?” Sabo hugs Luffy to calm him, but also to make sure he didn’t run off. Luffy, still pouting, returns the hugs regardless and cuddled against the blond. Ace just rolls his eyes but smiles at them, pulling his boyfriend and brother close for a group hug.

They wait a couple of minutes to be called and then are lead into a small room with a bunch of other people to play. The workers there explain how to play the game and how to put on the vests and how to work the guns. They explains how you can pick names for your vests and change the colors as well. Once everything was explained then the workers opened the door to the room with all the vests, letting everyone inside.

Sabo grabs a vest with a blue color to it, while Luffy grabbed a yellow one. Koala followed Sabo’s lead and grabbed a blue one. Thatch, Izo, and Ace all grabbed a red colored vest, thinking it would be fun to be on a team since Luffy wanted to be on yellow alone. They get in line to change their names, the others just used the normal names while the brothers used fun names. Ace went by “Fire Fist”, Luffy went by “Straw Hat”, and Sabo went by “Blue Dragon”. Once all the names were given they all rush inside and split up, going to different areas and corners of the arena.

Ace waits alone in a corner hidden away from everyone for the countdown to begin. He split up from Thatch and Izo cuz he wanted to go wild and run around without having to worry about losing them. He heard the countdown start and he grins, peeking around the corner from where he was to see if anyone was around. He heard others running up and down the slopes and halls, it was dark but still illuminated by the black lights around the arena. The moment the countdown stops, Ace smirks and runs out from his hiding place.

Running around the corner he sees a group with their back turned to him, they were colored orange and Ace instantly starts shooting at them. When one of the vests shuts down and beeps, the other two freak out and turn to shoot him, but he got them instantly before running off.

Ace runs around shooting everyone he sees that’s a different color. It might be his first time but he thinks he’s doing pretty good, and having a blast while at it. Suddenly the freckled man sees Luffy jumping OFF the second story platform to the first and he nearly heart attack.

“LUFFY DON’T FUCKING JUMP OFF TO THE FIRST FLOOR!” Ace yelled out to him, shooting him and making Luffy’s vest shut down for a little bit as payback for scaring him half to death. Luffy just laughs and keeps running off.

“SORRY ACE!~” He then turned a corner and was gone. Ace just huffed and went back to running and shooting people he saw. Thinking up ways to kick Luffy’s ass once they were home.

Running past a secluded hall with small but deep rooms imbedded into it, Ace wasn’t paying attention much since he didn’t hear anyone around him. But then his vest was grabbed and he let out a yell as he was pulled back into one of the rooms and slammed against the wall. He was about to shout and kick the person pinning him against the wall with the body, till he sees it was Sabo with a large smirk. Ace’s body relaxed and huffed.

“Fuckin hell Sabo why did you grab me like that?” Sabo just let out a soft laugh and wrapped an arm around Ace’s waist.

“Aw lighten up Ace.. come on you’ve been running around all this time.. and we still have about half an hour left so why don’t we take a few minutes and relax together..” Sabo gently places a kiss onto Ace’s lips with a grin. Ace gives Sabo a questioning look. Neither of them needed a break, they could go on for hours and barely break a sweat. But who was he to deny alone time with his boyfriend?

“Alright then Sabo.. What do you have in mind to ‘relax’ hm?” Despite it being very dark, lightly illuminated by the black light in the hall, Ace could see Sabo’s grin grow. He nudges Ace’s head to the side when he went and gently starts kissing at Ace’s neck. The ebony lets out a small sigh and relaxes against him, closing his eyes, as Sabo keeps kissing his neck.

The blond trails small kisses up his neck, lightly biting at it before placing soft kisses on his jaw and cheek. He pulls away slightly before presses a kiss to Ace’s lip again. Ace hums against his lips bringing his hands up and threading them through Sabo’s blond locks, tugging at them lightly.

The kiss gets heated fairly quickly once Sabo tugs at Ace’s lip lightly and Ace just opens his mouth for the other. Sabo pushes his leg in between Ace’s and grinds against him lightly, causing out to let out a small moan. Ace was glad no one was running down these halls all too often, he didn’t want to deal with the staff finding out about this. Not that they cared if they were found, it would just be annoying.

Pulling Sabo deeper into the kiss by tugging his hair a little harder, getting a small noise from Sabo clearly enjoyed it. It was going like that for a while that Ace was so focused on it and unaware about their surroundings.

Till he heard a gun go off and his vest make a loud beeping noise. Ace full on stops and snaps his eyes open, feeling Sabo’s lips slowly grow into a smirk. Sabo pulled away from the kiss with the biggest shit eating grin against his lips.

“Thanks for the points babe.. Maybe we can finish this later at home yea?~” Sabo ducked in quickly and bite Ace’s neck fairly hard in his sensitive spot, causing him to let out a small yelp. Then Sabo instantly ran out of the small room and down the hall.

Ace was in shock for a second, blushing brightly and a hand on his neck where Sabo bit him. That was, till rage took him over and he bolted right after Sabo, holding his gun as he ran.

“SABO I’M GOING TO KICK YOUR KICKING ASS!!”

The rest of the time everyone heard angry yelling and loud laughter.

~~

After the game Ace was still chasing after Sabo all around the Laser Tags Arcade area. Sabo got first place but Ace somehow got dead last.

This is the summary of a story that’s constantly on my mind tbh. It’s called “Demonic Heart” but the name is subject to change.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There are four races in the world. Angels that live in the sky, Humans and Fae that share the ground, and Demons who were banished to the underworld.

Hundreds of years ago a war broke out between the three races and the demons, the three fighting for control while the other fought for freedom. When the demons lost the battle, they were banished to the underworld, a seal placed on the realm to stop demons from coming through.

But it was flawed, over the years routes were created within small cracks of the seal, letting demons leave the new hell they call home. Trying to have a better life than the one they were forced upon.

As the years went on, things evolved and kingdoms formed. The three upper races ruled over their respected territories and there was a law, a law saying if a demon was found, they are to be killed.

Now, in present time, three brothers lived within the forest, far away from other villages. One a young angel, his brilliant smile shining brighter than the sun. The other was a human, blessed with magic and blood of a noble. The last was a demon, who wanted nothing more than to be free from the shackles bound to his kind.

Context: Marine Luffy just gave him self up to the marines to stop them from hunting down his brothers and executing them. The marines just took him away.

Nami, still looking in the direction the ship went, gripped the straw hat in her hand tightly. Before lifting it up and gently setting it on top of her head, the lightweight hat feeling heavy to her. Heavy with the broken promise it held, with the weight of a stolen freedom. 

 A weight she will carry for the sake of her one and only captain.

~~~~~~~~

Context: The Straw Hats went to find Shanks to return his hat, and he was with the Whitebeards but the SH’s went anyways. Nami explains that Luffy could no longer give back the hat and Ace, pissed at Luffy for being a marine and not knowing the truth, said this and Nami was furious.

“I bet it’s because he was offered a better position as a marine, so he ditched the hat and his fucking crew. Or probably on a stupid fucking vacation.” Ace said with a glare, causing the group to glare at him. But the women instantly frowned and gripped the hat tightly, before carefully putting it on her head and turn to walk straight towards the Second Division Commander.

“Nami..” The long nose man said but she didn’t stop till she was right in front of the logia user. Everyone watched the women, Nami, carefully as she just stood there. A shadow casted over her eyes from the Straw Hat. She did nothing for a moment, everyone wondering what she would do.

Ace was about to snap at her, till she reeled her hand back far and brought it forward, slapping the man right across the face. He stumbled from the sheer force of the slap, holding his cheek and glares.

“You bitch..!”

“You know NOTHING about our captain! Don’t you fucking dare assume shit you don’t even KNOW!!” She yells out, snapping her head up to look at him, tears forming in her eyes as she glared at Ace.

“Listen you-“

“No YOU listen to ME! You think our captain is selfish, that he only cares for himself. That he’ll abandon anyone just because he’s a marine and they’re pieces of shit. You are his older brothers yet you are so fucking BLIND TO THE PAIN BEHIND HIS SMILE! So blind to the invisible chains wrapped around his body, that bind so deep they bleed! You only see what you want to see, you see a traitor to a dream, an oath you three created when you were kids. But you want to know who we see? Who we followed, who we will risk our life for.” Nami yells out, as she explains tears slowly start to stream down her face.

Honesty is Scary

Summer Heat (this one is smut)

I wrote this on a story that is really not much to it other than Sabo sold his freedom to protect his brothers, becoming a slave. He got out and worked for the Revs till he and a few others were captured and held hostage.

~~~~~

He loved his freedom, it’s what he was always after. But it seems that this ‘freedom’ is always getting people hurt. The only chip he has to put on the table to gamble. A chip he will gladly lose to protect the people he loved.
