I categorically refuse to take responsibility for this. Bialy's the one who suggested Usopp rape. :P



He has many reasons to return to East Blue. This had never been one of them. The deepest fantasies in darkest night, dreaming of finally becoming a great warrior, astounding everyone with his power--not even then.

He wasn't expecting to find him here, not this backwater island, this sleepy little town, so far from the Grand Line that they've barely heard of the Pirate King. Almost doubted it could be him. Not as tall as he remembered, not quite as feline-lean.

But the blades are still sharp, polished to mirrors reflecting starlight, lethal points against his throat. "You shouldn't have come. You won't ruin it for me again."

Once he would have trembled, but he's a warrior now. And those feet are not as fast as he remembered, those limbs not as strong; a twist of his arm brings him to his knees on the dirt road, bladed gloves ripped off.

It hasn't been that long, really; no silver in the black hair, sliding silkenly under his fingers as he forces his head down. "This wasn't why I came."

"Still a liar." Futile rasp, fruitless struggles; it's so easy to hold him down. He's almost as strong now as he used to say he was.

"Yeah, sometimes." He's no coward anymore, but the blood pounding in his ears is deafening. "But not now."

His lip curls, even as he pants, glasses cracked and cheek pressed to the dirt. "What are you now?"

"Now," and he leans over him, "now I'm a pirate, like my father. Like my captain." The wiry form under him bucks to throw him off, and this wasn't why he came, but he bears down, until he feels those hoarse gasps heave against his chest, whispers into the straight black hair, "Like you could never be."

Wow. Usopp is many things to me, but until this fic, he has never been a white hot little predator. I like, I like a whole lot.

Why wai...just, cohesively dark and the "Like my captain," really set me up the squee, because suddenly it doesn't just seem dark, but possibly dystopian--shock! Unexpected for reals, and that whole expansion of scope and so forth abutting the narrowing at the very last which hooked back into canon, calling me to remember Kuro in his actual chapters and parse...also, 'why he came' repetition is intriguing (why?). Initial reaction was something like this, anyway, and I thought there were several ways I could read it, which is my favorite.

Me, I've been, you know. the usual. rl stressing + determined refusal to acknowledge stress = secret hikago crackfic factory, among other wacky things. Missed this, longed to write drabble this weekend, but was soundly defeated after I accidentally imagined Zoro's uke 'iya'. So much for l33t, although I love you forever for the very suggestion. ::flails::

Ooo~ This is very intriguing. I'm also exploring the darker side of Usopp at the moment, so this is very...hmm... *saves to computer for future reading pleasures*

I don't suppose there will be moar soon, then? *shot again*

*shot for being even later than my friend who commented above me and wondering why she never showed me this awesomeness*

Beautiful... this is the kind of fic that makes wandering through the archives worth it. I love your Dark-Usopp in this...
