Many people thought Franky was much younger than his thirty odd years, because his aura was, on a calm day, like a kaleidoscope. A fast spinning kaleidoscope of rainbow feelings and energy.

The cyborg paid no mind to the whispers behind his back of immaturity or psychosis. What did it matter if his heart couldn't stay put? Ever since Tom...well, no one recognized him as the green dazed Cutty Flam since them.

He wasn't determined like he was back then to fulfill his dream. Other more pressing matters of the present required his attention- besides, a boat to go around the world? How foolish.

Then he met a boy in a straw hat and agreed to build him a ship.

Before they started work, Iceberg clapped a hand to his friend's shoulder. "It's good to have you back," he said, before walking towards the planks of adam wood.

Franky didn't know what he meant, until he saw the green flickering around his hands and tools. He snorted, and got to work.

A/N: So this is a kind of character study looking at a 'what if' scenario. Basically, people in the OP world all have visible emotional spectrums, which in the case of very strong individuals can be used like the rings of the DCU's Lantern Corps. In case you coundn't tell, this is based off the ring's powers and spectra.

Here's a breakdown of what the color's mean. More interesting info can be found on the DCU page about the Lantern Corps.

Red: Rage

Orange: Greed

Yellow: Possessed by people who are afraid, or have the ability to cause much fear. Can only be beat by green.

Green: Will, determination

Blue: Hope. Can only have the full extent of their abilities unlocked in the presence of a green.

Indigo: Compassion. Can exert their will on and control others.

Violet: Love, or someone denied love.

Black: Death.
