Benn Is Thanking Every God Available That There Is No Pirate CPS Cause What? - Tumblr Posts

Sadly I'm stuck at work, and I say sadly bc I'm picturing and really want to write some fic about Shanks stumbling into a de-aged Mihawk and, of course, taking him to the rhp for the time being until they figure out how to solve the situation, bc he's not going to leave a kid in need, and he's not going to leave Mihawk. And mainly I want to write it bc I can imagine Mihawk being the absolute, worst menace to ever grace the rhp with his presence. Did you think that Luffy was a handful to deal with? Wait until the rhp have to turn the red force upside down bc they're not sure if Mihawk has been kidnapped by the marines / another crew / whatever threat or if he's just having a sulk in some random part of the ship bc Shanks didn't have time to 'duel' him (he didn't read well that Mihawk wanted attention) and now Mihawk is 110% convinced that he hates him.

(This could be very sad, very easily bc I imagine that Mihawk had a very crappy childhood with some trauma sprinkled on top of it, but it'd be interesting, Shanks having to figure out how to deal with kid! Mihawk when he knows like. Two details of Mihawk's childhood and just has vague suspicions about why he doesn't talk more about it, even with him)

And also bc I imagine kid! Mihawk being the type of kid that is very happy to be treated like an adult? Like, he doesn't have any idea of what's going on besides the fact that Shanks has said that they're going to help him, but Shanks gives him a map to (colour with crayons) 'plot the course of the ship' and he's glowing.
