Fics like safe space

“What did you pray for?” Shanks asked, poking at the baby fat filled cheek. Luffy swatted at him with a scoff. He pursed his lips, “For Ace.” He said, casually, like it hadn’t swept the rug from out under Shanks and caused his gait to falter, entirely. He was frozen, in response. Luffy continued for several seconds until he realised the adult at his side was no longer there. He turned, perplexed, watching Shanks with a befuddled expression. Shanks held no rebuttal. “What’s wrong?” “Why…” he almost didn’t want to ask. “Why Ace?” Luffy’s stare was long and hard. And for the first time, since meeting Luffy on that fateful day, all the way past the chaos of the Grandline, in the waters of the East Blue—Shanks could not place the expression that overtook Luffy’s supple features. Alternatively, the story where Shanks and Luffy take steps on an arduous path to closure. Promptober 2023 - Day Twenty-Four - "Glimpse"
