"You haven't! More presents!" he exclaimed excitedly. "What is it? What'd you get me, Ace?"

He turned slightly, thumb jutting over his shoulder to his back. What with the warmer weather he'd been just going shirtless as normal. "...you see, his mark is gone. That makes me a free man."
Not that Pops ever really bound him in any way to begin with. Ace always willingly remained by his father's side. He was given all the freedom he could ever want and spent most of his life happily with the Whitebeard crew. The others didn't know what he'd come back from and the fact that he would never go back to his crew.
"So, what I'm trying to say here is, I want to join your crew and become an official Straw Hat." There ya go kid, your birthday gift.

Because it burned up. Dissolved in the mass of scars and remnants from that day Luffy didn't like to think about. It felt like it had been so long ago...
Wait. Was Ace asking for a new tattoo?!
An official welcoming. Ah... Luffy finally got it. And he grinned, setting his fork down as he looked at his brother. "We can paint on you, Ace?!"

He kinda thinks maybe his gesture kinda went over the kids head, too much cake and fun for him to realize just how deep this was or what it meant to Ace. Or maybe it was only as significant to him. He knew the others already counted him in as Nakama, but they all knew as soon as he went home (assuming he hadn't met his end prior) he'd go back to Whitebeard.
This was official, this was his home, they were his family now, he had no one else to turn to. He was giving his loyalty to Luffy and the others completely. No more being an outsider, he wasn't going to wander off to be alone anymore. He had his crew now.

A smirk on his lips and liquor in his hands, he sat back and watched for now.

He caught sight of Zoro off to the side, then noticed a picture that was taped up on the wall behind his head. So he hopped off the couch and scuttled over.
"Zoro! What do you think about the pictures we put up? They look cool don't they?!"

A bit worried, she bit her lip. Well, she had told him she would give him one of her cakes from work, so when she went to work she'd bring him the cake. Yeah! It was perfect!
She started up again, making it to the door and knocking.

"Hey there Imouto." Awesome now you can meet your other big brother. He steps aside to let you in. "Thanks for coming and welcome to our humble abode."
He turns to shout at Luffy and get his attention. "OI! LUFFY! C'MERE AND MEET YOUR SISTER!"
Reply
He'd been about to ask for another piece before the words reached his ears and they twitched again.
His head jerked straight toward Ace and the girl there.
"LUFFY HAS A SISTER?!"

And Luffy wasted no time in coming over. He was busy playing with a shiny green beetle that had flown in through the window when he heard Ace's call. He was actually pretty excited. He had never had a sister before!
He'd like her no matter how she acted. After all, he kind of liked Gramps even though that man scared the daylights out of him. Even if she hit him every day like Nami. But he didn't think she would, she seemed nicer. Luffy just bolted over, beetle in his hands.
"Hi, Amu!"
