Sharing headcanons and aus about these three from One Piece.
Plans?
Alright it's getting a bit stagnant so let me add something else to chat about~
Who else here has ideas for MAS with disabilities??
I HAVE MANY!!
In most cases I try to write them as if the characters have had the disability from birth, like my Blind!Ace AU~ but in other cases I come up with plans for it to be via outside forces?
For example, I LOVE the idea of Sabo being blind out of his scarred eye~ I also have an idea involving Slave!ASL where Ace took Luffy's punishment and is blind due to tar burns~
AND (because music is just so horribly inspirational) while I was listening to Hips Don't Lie by Shakira, I came up with the idea of Gypsy Dancer Ace who is deaf due to being attacked by the athorities (massive trauma to the head, or burning I haven't decided yet).
So who else has ideas like this?? SHARE THEM WITH ME SO I KNOW I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO TORTURES MY BABIES!!
(Deaf!Marco is also a favorite of mine :D )



Marco with cardiac arrhythmias that causes his heart to speed up when he's stressed. The problem is that there is not actually anything wrong with his heart that his powers can heal so they just exasperate the problem.
ahahah mas with disabilities I think you mean any fic I've ever written, basically. Okay maybe not every fic, but it is easier to count fics with out disabilities/illnesses than it is to count those where I DON'T have them be disabled in some way lol.
I am always a sucker for HOH marco, and I read a cool RSI (in his elbow, which is why he wears the bright orange elbow brace) headcanon for ace ages ago that has basically become my canon. Sabo being blind in one eye is just. Yes. Thank you. Good god above thank you I'm Dying.
Made a steampunk au where marco lost both his arms (basically from the elbow down) in a mining incident, have several aus where sabo is functionally mute, and I love writing Marco with haemophilia or cardiomyopathy/asthma. Basically anything where Marco gets sick a lot has my stamp of approval because I'm a sucker for the irony behind the guy with the phoenix/heal-everything-whateves fruit has a chronic disability/illness. (Plus, the more I research for these guys in fics, the more I can build my OCs to make them realistic and not insulting haha. ;3)
In terms of mental disabilities/illnesses I'm a huge huge huge sucker for Sabo with anxiety and autism, and the headcanon you must pry from my cold, dead hands is Ace with depression. (and putting more research into his narcolepsy just. Supported this hcs of mine.)
I know that this isn't all of them but this is all I can remember off the top of my head haha. It's always difficult/scary to do disability headcanons/ideas though because who knows what someone will find insulting, you'know??
Ok so RSI Ace is now going into my box of things I love, and ever since I read ASL in Red by Kereea I LOVE the idea of chronically ill Marco and I will write something about that because DAMMIT!!!
And let me just lay it out right now, blind AUs and functionally mute AUs are tied for my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE???
Like I have some issues writing modern mute stories because ASL, but I try my best in that, but MUTE! Come on?? It's so hard to imagine any of the Loud Trio as quiet so IT'S AWESOME!!!
And I 10/10 agree with your mental illnesses, because yes! But I also have a slight addiction to Sabo or Marco with OCD? More Marco for me but I can see Sabo has having it just as easily. But also consider, Ace with chronic social anxiety, he has not been around many socialized people, he's only had Sabo and Luffy (and to a point Gramps) and he pretty much hated everyone else, so IT'S INCREDIBLY PROBABLE DAMMIT.
And anything that involves amputee anything is a major yes. I love cutting off limbs of my babies to see how they overcome it~ (there is a particular idea that's been running around my head of a modern AU with ex-Special Forces Ace who had both legs amputated after being held hostage overseas, with Teacher Marco and Lawyer Sabo, neither of whom know that Ace has prosthetic legs :P ANGST EVERYWHERE FOR MY BABIES)
Okay I'm going to go now before I overload on my own ideas.....
BUT YES 10/10 LOVE!!
Okay, I have never seen the RSI head canon for Ace but I think that it might be my new favorite thing. But I totally support Ace having depression and anxiety, social or otherwise because let's be real, Ace has issues. I will pay good money to have his narcolepsy treated as more then a joke, I have done so much research into it to make it seem realistic that it annoys me.
I love partially blind Sabo, even if it's just having super poor vision out of his injured eye, it's just so good, because I can't understand how he would get out of it without being more seriously injured. I haven't even heard of Sabo with anxiety or autism, but Yes!!
Oh, god, chronically ill Marco whose suppose to heal everything? YES. I really like Kneoria's cardiac arrhythmia because let's be real it heals everything wrong and there isn't anything wrong with Marco's heart.
Ugh theses are all so good.
i really like the slave!asl idea, that sounds super cool
I'm working on it ;P
How about MAS with phobias?
I've thought about AUs where Ace has pretty bad nyctophobia after fighting Blackbeard
that sounds good! i also thought about aus in where ace has claustrophobia, it just seems fitting for him for some reason haha.
I LOVE THE IDEA OF ACE WITH CLAUSTROPHOBIA??? Like can you imagine him on Moby Dick when he's trying to kill Pops? Trying to stay hidden from the crew but can't hide anywhere too small without having a panic attack...UGH THAT'S JUST AWESOME!
Yes???? Just yes??? In the few AUs that exist where Ace survives I could TOTALLY see him having nyctophobia!! UHHHH my poor baby~
I think the few I've had considering phobias was Ace with a phobia of growing facial hair, Marco with a phobia of cages, and Sabo with a phobia of guns and fire.
Ace's is rather self-explanatory (doesn't want to look like you-know-who), Marco because HELLO phoenix? What kind of phoenix would LIKE cages, and Sabo's comes from his run in with the CD when he was a kid. The douche used a gun and blew up his ship, so it's not too crazy to think that he'd have heard the gunshot, and he was seriously injured by the fire~ :P
