you’ve been living with the Dadan Bandits for quite a few years now, having to make do once you were, well, forced to take the baby Ace in..

a mere five years later, come Sabo and even though the bandits didn’t know yet, you couldn’t just leave him alone..

and ANOTHER five years later, came Luffy- the second child Garp tossed into your lap. you probably weren’t the most maternal person out there, but compared to Dadan and Garp, you were a Godsend for the boys..

though they mostly wouldn’t admit that.. it was moments like these, where you’d wake with three little heads snoring beneath you that showed it.. the older two more restrained and held back, while Luffy was star-fished over you constantly.
