"Like A Sunflower That Follows Every Movement Of The Sun, So I Turn Towards You, To Follow You..."

I hadn’t drawn them in!!!! So!!!! Long!!!!!!

Demon Zoro AU where he is sent on a mission to Earth to assassinate a tyrannical priest. In typical Zoro fashion, however, he gets lost trying to find his target.

After wandering around for some time, he eventually encounters a human that peaks his interest: Luffy. Before he knows it, he is smitten. He abandons his mission and instead stays with Luffy, masking himself as a normal human, although with Luffy he is not afraid to show his demon-like features. Luffy thinks Zoro is cool and shows no fear towards him at all, unlike others.

Typical day in the life activities ensue, with Zoro trying to manage grocery shopping with Luffy, cleaning the house, doing laundry, etc. Appliances make him angry and electronics confuse him—he has also scared the mailman nearly half to death on several occasions.

Luffy has to help Zoro out quite a bit as burning down the house, hell, the whole neighborhood, is a constant concern.

Zoro claims Luffy as his human, and has literally no interest in anyone else. He'll scare, glare, maybe even attempt to kill others if they piss him off enough. But Luffy is the only one he listens to, protects, and loves.

Luffy definitely has Zoro wrapped around his finger. The big bad demon melts when he sees that sunshine smile, feels that warm skin in a tight hug, sweet lips pressed firmly against his own. Luffy can get away with a lot when it comes to Zoro, and Zoro gladly lets him.

I just thought this would be a fun idea. Demon Zoro struggling to survive on Earth, but he refuses to return to his own domain in Hell because he falls hard for Luffy and wants to be by his side. I might write short stories/do threads for this, but for now, these are just my thoughts.

Everyone talks about the Wano zolu reunion, which is awesome, but why doesn't anyone ever talk about the sheer flirtiness of this scene?!

Luffy only grabbed the damn sword in the first place because it was cool and I'm certain he knew Zoro would be impressed by it. Then, when Zoro reacts to the sword (exactly as he knew he would), Luffy decides to be a little shit and keep it away just because he can. Luffy is FLIRTING with Zoro!

Just let me listen to your noises, Captain?

It's still surprising to me how underrated this ship is. These two share so many moments together where they clearly rely on and care for each other, that they can understand what the other means wordlessly. Their relationship dynamic is simple and yet there is so much depth. Especially, I was rewatching the battle of Zoro & Luffy vs Kaido, in which Zoro once again claims that if Luffy dies, he's going with him. BASICALLY, he's saying that he has no reason to live if there is no Luffy, and RIGHT AFTER Luffy CONFIRMS that?

Just in general Oda has developed their relationship; you can actually see the difference in how their trust level is building from the beginning, and how Zoro changes because of Luffy. I cannot wait to see Luffy learn how many sacrifices his swordsman has done for him.

Yet it's weird that it's not a popular ship? Every time I bring it up, I get various responses like "oh I'd have never thought to ship them" or "why would you??". WHY WOULD YOU NOT? Just look at them!? They are clearly beyond normal friendship.

- - hug!!!! 💘

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Where I'm from, this day celebrates all kinds of love and friendship, not just Eros.

HC is that the crew set this up because they're tired of the two dancing around each other. And for their own entertainment lol
