CP9 Cat Headcanons
This is... a very silly post. XD After seeing a similar concept on Pixiv (images 10–12 in this log) and critiquing the breed choices it used, I wound up writing my own take on it.
These are written with actual cats in mind (not my usual Hybrid Au), and the breed choices are just for fun— as in, largely chosen based on looks/vibes, not anything too serious. I was definitely channeling that early 2000s "characters are cats for some reason now" mini-genre, so these are pure fluff/comedy, for once... >3>
. . .
Lucci
(Bengal)
Serial toy murderer. Violently destroys any and every toy you give him within a matter of hours, days at MOST. 
Some of the things he’s done to his toys probably qualify as war crimes tbh. Likes to drown the catnip mice in his water dish. Also enjoys tearing things into ragged chunks/”gutting” the stuffing. 
Sometimes you wake up to him on your chest with a present. 
(A chunk of mutilated cat toy. He drops it onto your face.)
The most athletic cat you’ll ever know. There is no surface in your house he can’t reach SOMEHOW. Also can and will learn how to open doors, drawers, etc, and will use this unfortunate skill to get into everything if he’s bored. 
Affectionate, but only on his terms. You don’t decide when you’re allowed to pet him; when the mood strikes, he’ll interrupt whatever you’re doing and forcefully put his body in your lap. 
You’re not allowed to move until he decides you’re done. :) 
Has a surprisingly cute kneading habit. He’ll go Baby Mode and make biscuits for hours. Sucks on certain blankets too.
Kaku
(Devon Rex)
ZOOMIES TO THE MAX.
Seemingly never sits still. Will run from one end of your house to the other at all hours of the day. At night, you’re regularly woken up by the distinct rapid thumping of galloping kitty paws.
Likes high places and unexpected perching spots. This includes your shoulder— and he can make the jump on his own! 
Playful, but not prone to destroying his toys. Prefers batting hard objects down a flight of stairs to tearing the plush ones open.
Too brave (and curious) for his own good. Lacks any sense of danger when it comes to investigating something that’s caught his interest. 
This includes slipping through the front door.
Not super cuddly, but likes being near you/keeping an eye on what you’re doing. 
Has a squeaky “old man” meow. WEH!
Jabra
(Egyptian Mau)
Wild, playful, curious, and so very destructive. If he’s not kept entertained, your property will suffer for it. 
Requires FREQUENT play and attention, but fortunately, he’s not too hard to please. Throwing a squishy ball for “fetch” can keep him occupied for hours. 
The asshole cat who will make direct eye contact with you before (very deliberately) knocking something off a shelf, then sit there smugly while you try to scold him. 
Very talkative! When he wants your attention, he YELLS, and seeing wildlife outside always brings out that excited, bloodthirsty chitter. 
Taking him to the vet is an ordeal, for everyone involved...
Doesn’t mind being pet and handled. Pesters you for affection regularly, but gets bitey when he’s had enough. :/ 
Highly territorial. Will not tolerate other cats/animals near him.
Kalifa
(Turkish Angora)
Truly the embodiment of the “disdainful gorgeous fancy cat” trope. 
Her fur is incredible, due largely in part to near-constant grooming. Do NOT interrupt her washing. 
She’ll wash your fingers too if she’s feeling affectionate. Mlem mlem mlemmmm...
Likes to be involved in what you’re doing. The kind of cat to walk across your keyboard or loaf-sit on top of stray paperwork, seemingly oblivious to how badly she’s getting in the way. 
At least your “adorable secretary” makes for good moral support!
Not overly playful, but she can be a DEADLY hunter when the mood strikes— fast, agile, and with amazing reflexes no matter what kind of toy you put in front of her. 
Weirdly fickle about when you’re allowed to touch her. Will glare, hiss, and swat at fingers if you test those boundaries.
Blueno
(Norwegian Forest Cat)
The most quiet, low-maintenance, independent cat imaginable. You nearly forget he exists, sometimes.
Not much of a meower, but has a deep, calming, rumbly purr. 
Content to curl up on a chair or in a corner and let you go about your day! He’ll alternate between napping and silently staring in your general direction; the eye contact is a sign of affection. <3
Won’t seek out attention on his own, but also won’t fight it if you pick him up and carry him around like a plushie. 
...he stays limp and docile no matter what you do to him, actually.
Needs regular brushing, or his fur starts to matt. It’s pretty much the only “extra attention” he’ll require, though, and he’s (fortunately) cooperative about it. 
Learned how to open doors at some point. You don’t know how he managed that.
Fukurou
(Persian)
R O U N D (and it’s not just fluff)
Despite being shaped like a furry bowling ball, he’s quite playful, and way more agile/fast-moving than you’d expect. 
...that energy is much less cute when his full weight lands on your abdomen in the middle of the night, however.
VERY affectionate. Will take any opportunity to lay his chin on your palm, headbutt your shoulder/wrists, put his paws on your chest so he can try to lovingly lick your face, etc— purring all the while! 
Chatty cat!! Chirps and squeaks at you non-stop; if you “respond” to him, it turns into a back-and-forth conversation with his mrrep-ing. 
Fond of high places, like bookshelves and tall dressers. 
It’s unclear how such a heavy cat manages to get up onto them, but he usually ends up yowling for help when he can’t get back down.
Kumadori
(British Longhair)
A huge, massively fluffy mini-lion of a cat, with that “polite little gentleman” face common in his breed. 
Sheds. Sheds SO MUCH. All of your clothes are covered in his fur, no matter how hard you try to keep him thoroughly brushed. 
You cannot escape the fluff. 
YOWLS. The loudest, most determined drama queen when he wants something. Acts like he’s dying if his food bowl is empty for more than half an hour, non-stop howling included. 
Extremely cuddly; wants as much attention from you as you’ll give, and will flop his entire body into your lap to get it. 
Fond of jingly toys! The louder and more annoying the bell, the better. 
If you ever have to give him medicine (be it a pill or liquid), he’s utterly betrayed. Gives you the huge, sad, miserable scared-kitty eyes for the rest of the evening, and won’t let you touch him. 
(He’s over it by morning, and back to purring in your arms. Baby.)
Spandam
(Siamese)
The ugliest purebred imaginable, and his personality isn’t better. <3
Health issues. Skin/coat problems, numerous food sensitivities, arthritis, frequent UTIs, and a crooked tail from a past injury.
King of separation anxiety. If he can’t find you, he’s HOWLING, then finding a corner to cower in until his protector is back.
Truly the embodiment of the phrase “scardey cat”. Terrified of everything from the vacuum to rustling plastic bags. Huddles under the couch, trembling pathetically, after every little scare. 
...it is kind of cute when he runs to you to “save” him, however. 
This clumsy dumbass WILL get himself hurt (in incredibly stupid ways) if you don’t keep an eye on him. Utterly oblivious to real danger.
His distressed yowling is awful, and the attention-demanding yells aren’t much better. The classic So So Whiney Baby Siamese! 
NEEDS to be the only cat in the household— he’s violently territorial, but guaranteed to end up the other cat’s punching bag once he’s pissed them off enough.

Hii just wanted to say, I've read Special Handling on AO3 and it's sooo good. It's a pity I can't spam you with kudos because it deserve it. I loved all the chapters but Cracker is the one I enjoyed the most. Thank you! Have a nice day 💐
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it!! :D

Anon asking about how far in you were- I fully forgot I sent that ask. I was referring to the Seraphim. Fuck you Vegapunk, my kids now
YES THEM!!
I know about the Seraphim, and I'm interested. OvO Both in the "what the FUCK is these things' biology going to be like???" sense, and in the sense that clones of severely emotionally damaged pirates are uhhhhh probably not a wise choice on Vegapunk's part lmao.
Also, I think King needs to meet them. They're practically his kids, and I need to see this man go full "overprotective mama bird" because this is the closest he'll ever get to more of his species.

Kaidou would make the perfect fic victim...any aus you have in mind?
I've discussed a Hybrid Au concept for Kaidou here already, so other than that, the main "Au" ideas I've had floating around for him involve the pre-canon sort, where Reader is interacting with him long before he's a feared warlord with decades of experience in a position of power. For example, those two-ish years before ending up with the Rocks Pirates, where he was still just a feral teenager on the run from the government. A Pet Au-adjacent setting where he never escaped the "dehumanized weapon of war" life also sounds fun~ owo

I have a lot of thoughts about the Vinsmoke brothers, specifically about what could happen if their modifications? mutations? malfunctioned at some point and they ended up somewhat powerless and able to feel emotions (like how Sanji is). They would not take it well and I want to see them suffer lol
I have a whole theory about how exactly the modifications work/what it would take to get those three to experience some proper Feelings, and yeah, "they would not take it well" is an understatement. >.>
. . .
Ichiji
For a while, he's just plain in denial. Ichiji isn't sure what the strange thoughts and sensations in his body are caused by, but "emotions" simply isn't a possible answer. He's better than that. (And failure isn't allowed, to begin with.) Unfortunately for him, no amount of trying to talk himself out of it does any good. The new, unfamiliar anxiety leaves him restless and tense, so he overworks himself past the point of even his enhanced body's limits in an attempt to shut out the thoughts. Now that Ichiji actually has to fear falling short of "perfect", he ends up surprisingly self-conscious and on edge.
Niji
He's utterly unequipped to process the newfound emotions, and it shows. Badly. Everything feels agonizingly intense with no baseline for comparison, so Niji is left careening between erratic extremes of volatility and distress. He tries to hide it (Sanji was deemed a failure when he acted like this, they all remember that), but his clumsy, panicked attempts at suppressing the feelings only end up making them worse. The sudden awareness of his physical pain doesn't help matters, either— overall, Niji's bound for a breakdown within a matter of days, and it's going to be messy.
Yonji
Though he starts out more confused (and vaguely unsettled) than anything, Yonji also quickly spirals into the fear that what he's experiencing makes him a "failure" too. His attempts at containing the emotions are less violent than Niji's— instead, Yonji starts almost shutting down, turning quieter and less boisterous in an attempt to avoid unwanted scrutiny, while finding every excuse to dodge interactions with anyone who might notice that something is wrong. He's acutely aware that his brothers are acting strangely as well, and getting all the more apprehensive because of it.

do you think that linlin would marry off two kids to one person if theyvwere very valuable
I think that's a possibility, yep! Linlin would likely only be willing to give away one daughter per alliance (girls are valuable for making heirs, after all), but for the right agreement, two sons could certainly be a reasonable bargain. :) Especially if the sons in question were going to be troublesome to marry off on their own.

I was rereading your KNY nantaimori fic on ao3 and was struck by the memory that the Germa brothers canonically have no body heat due to their exoskeletons. So hypothetically they'd be perfect for that kinda thing; you wouldn't have to chill em beforehand or anything
OH I LOVE THAT!! OwO I'm always delighted when the fish-fics get brought up, and those three sound like excellent victims.
I'll do headcanon format, for now (though a fic is highly plausible, if I can settle on which one to torment), and I'm including Reiju because why not? I think she has the "exoskeleton" too, right? XD And for those who don't know what nantaimori is, it's the practice of serving sushi on a nude person's body ("nyotaimori" is the female version).
. . .
Reiju
On the scale of violating, dehumanizing things that have been done to her body so far, this is hardly the worst. Reiju certainly doesn't like the situation, but simply lying still and waiting for the participants to get their fill of perverted entertainment is simple enough. She's more than familiar with missions that make use of her sex appeal, so silently enduring lewd gazes comes easily, by now. Any feelings of shame or discomfort get shoved down and out of the way, to be dealt with when she's no longer observed.
Ichiji
He might as well be a plate, for how little reaction the audience is going to get. For Ichiji to be in this situation, he was either ordered to cooperate, or is held captive in a way where fighting back is already an impossible prospect. Thus, he sees no reason to struggle; making a fuss would only be undignified, after all. He's disturbingly unbothered, content to lie there and stare blankly at the ceiling until the dinner is over. He doesn't have the emotional capacity to be distressed by it. At least, not that he'll allow.
Niji
The whole scenario is humiliating, and Niji is trying to make that everyone's problem. He'll spit insults and increasingly violent threats until gagged, and keep trying to struggle his way out of any restraints long after it's obviously futile to try. Though he doesn't quite understand why being physically helpless and treated like an entertaining thing to observe is bothering him so much, he's getting increasingly agitated the longer he's subjected to it. His ego is thoroughly bruised, and he's hating every second of it.
Yonji
What starts out as vague curiosity about the bizarre set-up slowly shifts to something more resembling distress. There's no rational reason for him to be bothered by this (beyond the fact that being used as a plate is just stupid), and yet, Yonji can't quite ignore the creeping need to make it stop. On his back, forced to stay still, and peered down at by a small crowd... It greatly resembles some of the more painful procedures he's been through— and it's even more baffling that he's bothered by that thought, at all.

How far into the manga/anime are you exactly? Having seen your Innocents blog, I think there are some characters that are introduced in the most recent arc that fit the “traumatized/dehumanized child soldiers” niche really well and I think you’d like them
I'm not watching/reading linearly (just whatever catches my attention at any given moment), and I've read spoilers/info up through the most recent chapter, as of now. Which characters are you referring to, here? OwO

Have you had any thoughts on hybrid versions of the one piece characters? I love seeing what animals people associate with the characters 😅. Also ears and tails are cute
Hybrid Au, my beloved!!! owo I tend to go heavier with the animal research/xeno than just "ears and tails", but yes, I absolutely have thoughts— here's a handful of my favorites/who comes to mind!
. . .
Kaidou — Auroch bull: The now-extinct relative of modern cattle, closely related to Spanish fighting bulls. Bull feels fitting for Kaidou, I think— they're huge, potentially dangerous animals that get screwed over in blood sports or as slaughterhouse bait, and near-universally seen as aggressive because of instincts that are based in self-preservation or protecting a herd. And of course, ending up as a bull hybrid is just what happens to my favs, by now... (@senjuushi)
Judge — Tawny eagle: His "Garuda" theme implies a bird of prey from the start, so it's an easy pick! Described as "opportunistic", with a habit of feeding on carrion (and stealing other animals' prey), yet still "a bold and active predator", tawny eagles fit well with Judge's vibe of regal, pompous, and trying way too hard. They also tend to mate for life... and male birds are known for flashy courtship habits. Reiju, Ichiji, Niji, and Yonji would be the same species for this Au.
Sanji — Mourning dove: Keeping with the bird theme of his family, but a far less bloodthirsty species. Mourning doves are fluffy, vocal birds that are known for being "prolific breeders". They can be territorial between males, but are also social pair-bonders. Sora would have been a dove too, and Sanji sharing her species is just one more sign that the modifications failed. There's also something very fitting about a "caged bird" theme for his experiences with Germa.
Spandam — Giant panda: Useless animal that would be extinct by now without human intervention. Clumsy, pathetic, and admittedly pretty cute, but not good for much other than existing under careful supervision in a zoo. Of course, Spandam's terrible personality ruins most of the cuteness effect his hybrid species might have— ultimately, he's a needy, spoiled idiot who's eternally dependent on the care of others. And personally, I think he should have a cute, sensitive little stubby tail, perfect to yank on when he's being a brat.
Katakuri — Grizzly bear: Linlin is a grizzly hybrid as well, and the shared species adds to Katakuri's reputation as her "perfect" son. He's huge, powerful, and highly threatening... but would be just as content to gorge himself on snacks and all but hibernate afterward. If it wasn't for his self-imposed standard of perfection, that is. His fucked-up mouth seems even worse on a large predator species, too, which definitely adds to his complex/self-consciousness over it.
Perospero — Red fox: I saw a fanart of him as a fox hybrid on Pixiv, and it convinced me. A smug, sneaky bastard who takes after his mother's carnivore tendencies, but with far less of an intimidation factor to back it up. Annoyingly talkative and far more socially oriented than he wants to admit, as well as capable of being an absolute nuisance when he wants to— all of that sounds very fitting for Peros, I think. And fox whining noises fit his crybaby side.
Cracker — Bushy-tailed woodrat: Prey animals that are described as "vocal and boisterous", and nuisances for "creating general noisy havoc"— seems appropriate for Cracker, an overconfident brat who's far less tough than he acts. Packrats (the overall category) are nest-builders, too, which fits with how he spends so much time hiding in his biscuit soldiers to avoid direct combat. Woodrats also apparently have a foot-thumping tendency; a good match for his clapping!
Pudding — British longhair cat: Babygirl-looking murder machine seems highly appropriate. British longhairs have the sweetest little faces and soft coats, but cats are nature's finest serial killers at their core. Pudding would be perfect as a needy, jealousy-prone kitty who's way too good at playing up the cutesy kitten act to get on people's good sides— right up until a tsundere moment kicks in. Then, she's all puffed-up, twitching tail and poorly stifled purring.
Caesar — Axolotl: Like his pet poison slime thing! Axolotls are apparently "used extensively in scientific research due to their ability to regenerate limbs, gills, and parts of their eyes and brains", which feels fitting for Caesar, as does the fact that they're tricky to take care of as pets (and keep getting put in cages by people who don't treat them well, at that). Also, those feathery external gills are cute!!
Queen — American alligator: Lethal fat fuck of a reptile, exactly how Queen should be! Alligators can be lazy and kind of goofy-looking, but they're still dangerous and very strong. The huge, thick tail is also an obvious plus (the "Brachio-Snakeus" trick haunts me). And really, can't you see him sprawled out all lazy, for gator-style sunbathing?
Drake — Rottweiler/Border Collie mix: A strong, intelligent, capable, and work-oriented animal, that would (as a dog-experienced friend put it), "tear a house down to the foundation" if left without enough to occupy it. Drake gives me "beaten dog" vibes, in general, and it feels fitting that his hybrid species could easily have been sweet, if not for the trauma and DEEP psychological issues.
Law — Shorthaired silver tabby: Law is so very catboy-coded. He's a grumpy, fussy kitty who will both claw your arm open if you try to touch him, and could just as easily be reduced to a purring puddle if his guard gets torn down enough to allow it. Cats are highly effective agents of violence (and can be total bastards, when they want to), but also absolute babies. And imagine tiny, angry catboy Law getting scruffed by Rocinante to prevent the aforementioned clawing.

Oooooh, I got one for you.
Your boy Kaidou. I know, from your descriptions, that he has great emotional damage. How, hypothetically, would a Reader that attempts a relationship with him give him more?
It's kind of hard to make Kaidou worse than he already is... XD
For the most part, "making him worse" happens when the process of starting to deeply care about another person in a highly unfamiliar way cracks open some of that past emotional damage, and brings it right up to the surface again. All that child-soldiering puts some emotional repression into a person— as we see in Kaidou's fixations on strength, warfare, and violence. He hasn't had many chances to feel things outside of what's necessary for those (to the point where getting blackout drunk seems to be his main way of feeling anything else), so suddenly having to confront such drastically softer parts of himself (directed at another person, no less) would be a mess.
The realization that he could have such a peaceful, normal relationship with someone also comes with its share of problems. Kaidou has spent a lifetime convinced that the constant violence and dehumanization in his life is simply the way things are; confronting a completely different reality, one where he has a lover and partner instead of a subordinate or murderous rival, forces him to face that, perhaps, it always could have been like this. It makes him realize what he's missed out on, and calls attention to how awful his life has been.
