overlooked.

Portgas D Ace, a man of many talents. For someone so charming and charismatic, behind that mask of smiles and jokes, he’s quite emotional. He’s complex, and perhaps that’s why it takes so long for him to let anyone in. With you, though, it came naturally. A fellow Whitebeard Pirate, the person who has learned everything about him, from his troubled past with biological father to how often his narcolepsy kicks in throughout the day, you keep him grounded. You are his safe haven, his flame.

sensory overload.

You and Ace met during your 2nd year of high school. You got pretty close in only a matter of a few months, and you considered each other best friends by graduation. Things were going smoothly, though you both could feel your hearts pounding whenever you got a moment alone, catching yourselves staring a little too long. When he disappeared from your life so suddenly, you never got the chance to ask, to yell at him for what he did, to let him see what he caused you- until he was at your doorstep.

Portgas D Ace had been close friends with you since you joined the Whitebeard crew, practically best friends. A little after you joined, you met your boyfriend on an island that you visited for a mission. Ace never liked him, and he listened to your rants about him for the year and a half that your relationship lasted. He always said you deserved more than your boyfriend, but he never pushed too hard.

When your boyfriend broke up with you, Ace was reeling. He was going to do whatever it took.

it’s not his fault.

love me like a sailor.

his comfort.

He was absolutely head over heels when he met you. You were everything he could ask for in a partner, a best friend, a lover. 

You wished you never went on that mission. You trued to explain what happened countless times, but Ace didn’t see it as anything but betrayal; you saved the enemy over him, after all. Nights of endless fighting and sleeping alone and terse conversations dragged on until Ace finally called it. You didn’t fight it. You still loved him then.

And the feeling was mutual.

just chocolates.

Portgas D. Ace, the 2nd Division captain of the Whitebeard Pirates. When you first met him, he was reckless impatient and cocky, but now he’s one of the most infamous pirates in the world. Neither Ace nor you really understood how you got close, but there’s an unspoken agreement that you are closer to each other than most. Neither of you care to acknowledge it because, frankly, to acknowledge it, knowing that you’re both wanted pirates means you acknowledge the fear to losing each other.

Ace is quite the charmer, making friends everywhere he went without trying. And he was more than happy to hear that the island’s people wanted to throw a party, but…this wasn’t what he expected. He couldn’t argue though, not when you seemed so excited to play dress up, and he would kill to see you in a dress so stunning. So the two of you stayed on the island, him in a stuffy suit sitting at an empty table as he watched you move, smile, laugh.

But not with him.

Portgas D. Ace is charming, lovable, carefree- and your best friend. As the 2nd Division Commander for the Whitebeard Pirates, he’s popular and well-known, but don’t let his status trick you. Deep down, he considers you his most trusted crew mate and best friend, even with such a tragic past. He trusts you more than he trusts himself at times, so you can imagine how he gets when you’re sick. Clingy bastard.

you’re sick.

you drank too much. 

Portgas D Ace has always been a charmer, whether he knows it or not. With looks that could kill and manners that…most elderly people would approve of, you always believed you hit the jackpot the moment you joined Whitebeard’s crew. More or less, your relationship with Ace has been a friendship plus romance, so you can imagine what it’s like at night, when he’s all excited to show you some tricks he had wanted to impress you with; praise him, and he’ll be grinning for days.

new tricks.

Portgas D Ace is a notorious pirate, but he gained much more attention when he was finally taken in by the World Government. Normal civilians and Marines cheered when the Firefist Ace was locked up and set to be executed, but not you. You never liked how the World Government treated pirates, especially onces that had a moral code.

So when you heard you were one of the people that would be delivering food to the Whitebeard Pirate, there was a hope there.

*maybe you can help him.*

maybe he’s not so bad.

Edward met you during the few few weeks of his travels away from Amestris. One of the many people he spoke to during his time in your city, but your name seemed to stick in his head. So, he asked if you wanted to tag along while he tried to spread his philosophy on alchemy and Equivalent Exchange, claiming that having an alchemist with him might be a good idea, given his lackthereof. It’s been a few months since then, and he’s discovered a scientist’s greatest fear.

He’s fallen in love.

travel partner. 

you and ace have known each other for a couple years, friendship blossoming since your first day in Whitebeard’s crew. he’s been nothing but respectful, kind, entertaining, the jokes just bounce off you and him. it’s a good mix of silly and serious, and maybe you’ve wondered if there was somethings more, but all you’ve ever been is friends. until the crew throws a party and ace notices a man flirting with you. nonstop. liquid courage is not on his side tonight.

jealous bastard.

first kiss.
