[I really want to do an AU where Luffy was born a Naga, no rubber powers, etc., and lives in a zoo meant for the mythical and the unusual.

It’s not a bad life. Heat lamps, plenty of humidity, three squares a day, but it gets BORING, right? There’s nothing there to amuse him except when he rushes to the glass to scare the patrons silly and laugh at their fright because he’s JUST. SO. BORED.

So he hatches a plan to blow this dump and see what’s out there that he’s missing in his little bubble of isolation.

And the rest, as they say, is history.]

[I could do more with his lower body, but then it would just look silly, so I made it utilitarian. Rough scales and a club tail. This looks nothing like Jake save the horns KIND OF looking like his hair, but oh bloody well.]
