LawLu 30 Day Prompt


A/N: adfajlksd Thank you all so much! :'D


7: Injury
Warnings: blood.


Luffy, despite the fact he was an idiot, could be a genius when it came to fighting. If his normal attacks weren't working, he changed his style to best his enemy. However, that didn't mean he wasn't careless. He did a lot of idiotic things as well during his fights, and he had the minor scars to prove it; like the small, circular scars on his knuckles from punching through Krieg's spiked coat.

So Law knew to expect quite a few injuries when he finally caught up to Luffy.

What he was met with, however, was nothing like he expected.

The enemy was down; imbedded in the rocky cliff-face several meters away with blood oozing from his mouth and several broken ribs. Luffy, however, was lying in the middle of the battlefield. With a thin, two foot spike running through of his stomach. Law cursed as he limped as quickly as he could over to the teen, silently praying he wasn't about to come across a corpse. His prayers were answered, and Luffy cracked open one of his eyes and gave a tired smile.

"T-Torao."

"Don't try to talk, Luffy-ya," the surgeon said, inspecting the wound. Despite how nasty the wound looked, it wasn't the most serious wound Luffy had received. He'd make it without a doubt. Law gave a relieved breath as collapsed to his knees, exhaustion getting the best of him, too. "You idiot," he mumbled, and Luffy couldn't help the light chuckle that escaped him.

"Glad to see y-your okay."

"More okay than you are, that's for sure," he replied, a smile tugging at his lips. Chopper would be there any moment with his medical supplies at the ready, so Law simply rested next to his lover. He grabbed Luffy's hand and gave it a light squeeze. "Honestly, only you could get yourself impaled on the only spike within a thirty-mile radius."

"Shishishi… Only you could get your arm cut off and have it reattached during the middle of a battle."

The surgeon tsked, a scowl replacing his smile. "You're never going to let me live that down, are you…"

"Nope."

"Then I'll never let you live this one down," he said.

"Sounds fair enough." They sat in silence for a minute more, until the shrieking sound of a reindeer screaming in worry reached their ears.

"Luffy! What happened?!"

Law looked over at the Straw Hat captain. "I hope you're ready to stay in the sickbay for three days. Because I have a feeling Tony-ya isn't going to let you leave after inspecting this wound."

A sly smile appeared on Luffy's face. "Unless I get a second opinion from another doctor." Law couldn't help but mirror the look.

He would Luffy a second opinion anytime.

…Much to Chopper's annoyance.


7: Illness
Warnings: slight AU.


Luffy traced the white patches of skin that contrasted against the surgeon's tanned flesh, resting his head against Law's chest. He never bothered to ask the surgeon about the patches before, but now that the surgeon was his, he was curious to know. He felt Law's fingers ghost light patterns on his shoulder, and he gave a content sigh. "Torao?"

"Hm?"

"These white patches… What are they?" He felt Law's fingers still and he wondered if maybe he shouldn't have asked. But a moment later, Law was answering the question despite the fact he looked slightly uncomfortable about the subject.

"I had Amber Lead Disease when I was younger," he said, his voice quiet. "Everyone in my country had it. It caused white bruises to appear on the skin. I got the Ope Ope no Mi and cured the sickness, leaving these patches, vitiligo, behind." Luffy's mouth formed in the shape of a silent 'o' before he asked another question.

"Did you heal everyone else in your country?"

"…They were already dead by the time I got the Ope Ope no Mi," was the quiet answer he received. Luffy stilled, his eyes going slightly wide. He couldn't have imagined what that felt like.

"I'm sorry," he mumbled, feeling guilty that he brought the subject up. Law simply shook his head, holding Luffy even closer to him; almost afraid that if he let the teen go, he, too, would die.

"It's fine," he said. "It's in the past."

"You called this vitiligo…?"

"Yes. Why?"

"It, um…it makes your skin look…" The teen looked like he was trying to find the right word to describe the surgeon's skin. Law had a feeling of what he was going to say.

"Disgusting? Ugly?" That was what people usually thought of it, and really he'd gotten used to people saying that. Though, having Luffy say that would make him a little...uneasy and self-conscious

"No!" Luffy frowned, causing Law's eyebrow to raise. If it wasn't disgusting or ugly, then what was it? "It makes your skin look beautiful!"

The Surgeon of Death was honestly taken back by that, and he felt his eyebrows raise in surprise. "B-Beautiful?"

Luffy nodded and smiled, snuggling closer to the surgeon. "Yep! Beautiful."

Law's Amber Lead Disease and vitiligo had been called many things before.

But not once had it been called beautiful.

He couldn't help the genuine smile the pulled at his lips.

Luffy truly was one of a kind.


A/N: I got the vitiligo idea from Trelldraws on tumblr. Go check out their art because it's absolutely BEAUTIFUL. How they portray Law is probably one of my favorites. So please, if you have the time, go check her account. :] (On a side note: Well...maybe Corazon called Law's sickness beautiful to make him feel better? I can see him doing that.)

Felt like I failed with this chapter, but meh. Oh well. My bad. Take care~!
