It had been too long since the last time the Strawhats had met up with the Heart Pirates. So, Luffy had an idea. Zoro thought the idea was stupid, but he couldn't deny his Captain, especially if it got Law to see them. If anyone asked, Zoro would just say he missed the tall bastard, but in actuality, he and Luffy felt like they were missing a part of themselves without Law.
The Swordsman watch uneasily as his lover was playing with one of his swords. It was his cursed blade too. Now, this usually would be a problem because Luffy has the Voice of All that allows him to talk and eventually make friends with the sword, but it was still anxiety inducing, knowing what Luffy had planned. To put it simply, Luffy was going to hurt himself so Law would see the vivre card burning and come to visit. Zoro thought this was a terrible idea, considering who all else had the vivre card, but he couldn’t deny the King. He tried to. He really did.
"Are you sure he won't think you're just sparring or fighting someone?" Zoro asked. His Captain was scaring him a little.
"Nope! Because of my Haki, I don't get hit a lot anymore! Silly Zoro! Shishishi!" Luffy laughed. "This plan is fool proof! Torao will be so proud of how I planned!"
Zoro blinked. If he let this go through, Law was going to take his dick, permanently. "I think he'll castrate me for letting you do this."
"What could possibly go wrong?" Luffy asked grinning.
A freak wave had Luffy's dropping the sword which imbedded itself into his leg.
"OWW!!!" Luffy screeched.
"CHOPPER!!!" Zoro ran to go get their doctor when the surrounding area got bathed in a slight blue tinge. "Thank fuck…"
Not even a moment later, Law was on their ship, using his abilities to remove the sword and patch up Luffy. "How in the hell did this happen, Roronoa-ya?!" The Surgeon growled.
"The dumbass wanted to see you, and thought that hurting himself would bring you here faster." Zoro said with a sigh.
"It was gonna be a prank cause you'd over react and appear, Torao, 'nd I'd be fine by the time you got here." Luffy said through his sniffles.
Law pinched the bridge of his nose. "Luffy-ya, as much as I love you, I have not wanted to hit you right now more than I ever have."
"Torao wants to be close to me???" Luffy lit up then flung himself at the elder.
With a sigh, Law began calculating what it would take to visit more frequently. It was not the best idea. But, it followed Luffy logic.
The Strawhats got visits over the course of the next month by people stopping by because they saw their piece of Luffy’s vivre card. He was scolded many times and denied cuddles for his actions, and he vowed to never do that again.

It was a well known fact on Dawn Island that Luffy and Ace were chaos incarnate. Shanks was also aware of that to an extent. They were too cute to just think of as being capable of an unholy amount of carnage when provoked.
So, when the Red Force were having a going away party, everyone was mildly concerned that Luffy wasn't in the thick of it. It wasn't as if this never happened. The self proclaimed next King of the Pirates would often skulk around when he knew that the Red Force was leaving because they wouldn't take him with them. The party was in full swing when Lucky Roux wanted to show Makino the Devil Fruit he had found. When they opened the box, they found Luffy asleep in it and the Devil Fruit gone.
"Luffy!" Makino tried to pick him up just for his limbs to stretch.
"SHANKS!!!" The duo called out, not knowing what to do.
"Whoa whoa wassup?" Shanks said with a grin, swaggering over to the two. He sobered up in a flash seeing the sleeping Luffy. "What happened?"
Lucky Roux answered. "I was tryin' ta show Makino here the Devil Fruit I found when we found Luffy curled up in the box. And, when she tried ta pick 'im up, he stretched and didn't move, Captain."
"Fuck…" The red haired captain didn't know what to do. "Looks like he's a rubber man now…"
"But-" Makino looked horrified.
Shanks used a Haki covered finger to flick the boy gently in the head. "Oi, Anchor, wake up. You're making Makino worry."
Luffy sat up, rubbing his eyes then flopped into Makino. "M'fine Makino… I jus' wanted ta Stow away on Shanks's ship. But I got hungry and ate a bad tasting fruit." He woke up more as he spoke, getting excited about the adventure he must have had.
"Luffy." Makino frowned. "You will not do this again."
"But Makino!" He whined.
"You will set out to sea when you're 17. You will not try to set out earlier again, am I understood?" She said sternly.
"Yes Makino…" He pouted while plotting his next attempt to stow away on the Red Force.

Luffy loved the Going Merry and the rest of his collected Nakama. The quiet days between adventures were the best because it allowed them all to just be together. It was sad that Merry wasn't going to be able to take them all the way, but she was still so very precious to the Monkey. He could tell how much the crew’s love was reciprocated when she would float along without their help while enjoying the stories that Robin would read as they all sprawled across the deck.
Such peace could only be obtained when Luffy was content or distracted enough. In worst case scenarios, having the rubber man curl up against Zoro was a sure way to keep him still. It was this lovely afternoon when Luffy went to find Robin to continue reading the story they had started a while ago. She agreed with a smile, especially noticing that Luffy had swapped out the books with something mildly illegible and had childish drawing in it. Being the story master and scholar that she was, she easily read through it before the crew gathered around. She crafted the story out from the bare bones Luffy provided much to his entertainment.
Robin was sure he just wanted to hear a parody of their story thus far to reaffirm their bonds. It was weird. It contained things Robin hadn't heard of or seen, but the joy that radiated over the crew from Merry and Luffy made it a very pleasant afternoon.

The Strawhats were on Sabaody Archipelago for the first time when Zoro met Law. For the swordsman and surgeon, it was a long time coming because of their connection through Luffy. Letters and Den Den Mushi calls were all well and good, but it was a true test to meet in person. Their "subtle" rivalry over Luffy's affections had begun when the youngest suggested adding Zoro to his and Law's relationship.
Both obviously saw it as a challenge, but locking eyes for the first time, they paused. A systematic appraising look had both of them resisting a blush. Law’s lanky strength is similar to what attracted Zoro to his Captain in the first place. And, the almost soft musculature of Zoro was Law’s kryptonite. The Surgeon was a sucker for soft things, and both of his men were definitely that.
“Mugiwara-ya.” Law greeted as the Straw Hats walked into the Auction House.
“Torao?” Luffy looked away from Nami, who he was talking to, to see Law. “Torao!” He launched himself at the older man, wrapping his rubber arms around him multiple times.
Bracing himself, the Surgeon kept his footing as his monkey slingshotted into him. “Good to see you too, Luffy-ya.” He whispered in his boyfriend’s ear.
“OH! You also need to meet my crew!” He rattled off about all his adventures and how he met his crew. He pulled Zoro closer at some point. “This is Zoro, our other boyfriend!”
Both Law and Zoro blushed as everyone’s attention snapped to them. “Luffy!” “Luffy-ya!” It wasn’t unexpected, but they still weren’t ready for Luffy to just shout it out for the world to hear. Somewhere in the front of the Auction House, Kid could be spotted choking on his drink with Killer patting his back.
“Shishishi! I just wanted everyone to know!” Luffy said with a grin.
“Disgusting.” A tenryuubito scoffed while walking in. “Absolutely disgusting.”
Luffy went still.
“Don’t you dare-” Law started while Zoro shook his head.
Luffy unravelled himself from them and stalked up to the Celestial Dragon. “Wanna repeat what you just said?” He said, eerily calm.
“Your public displays of affection are disgusting.” The Dragon spit back.
“Gomu Gomu-”
“Luffy-ya!”
“Luffy! I got Camie and Silvers Reileigh!” Nami said, coming from behind the stage curtains.
“no Bazooka!” Luffy let out a devastating punch, shattering the Dragon’s helmet and face.
“Mugiwara-ya, this better not be your idea of a prank.” The head tilt was all Law needed to see, and they prepared to destroy the dispatched Marines.

"Luffy-ya?"
"Torao?"
"Why in the fuck are you nuzzling against me?"
"Cause I can?"
"If you have that much energy, finish fucking up Dofflamigo."
"But it's nice to cuddle with you!"
"Luffy-ya, we are literally running for our lives right now!"
"Five more minutes?"
"After you beat Dofflamigo."
"Be right back, Torao!"
A heavy sigh.
"What'd ya promise him?"
"Cuddles."
Pointed look.
Another sigh. "Yes Zoro-ya, you can join in too…"
'I am surrounded by idiots…' Law sighed. His boys and their tactile needs even in the midst of battle it seems…
