comment
Ami, or Hijiri Ami, has found herself in Loguetown and established a routine for herself while waiting for the Straw Hat's arrival. She does her daily rounds through town, she spots the most unexpected persons - not a certain grey-haired, chain-smoking (and decent) Marine. Rather it's a blond man with a grey Transponder Snail riding on his shoulder. A snail and a man she knows from one of her favorite stories. She can't believe it... But well, why not, given how great that particular story is?Copycat Isn't a Compliment is a One Piece Self-Insert Fan Fiction by Night Flower Luv, based on and set in the popular This Bites! with the blessing of its authors. As the author herself put it, it is "fanfic-ception", as both Ami and Cross are aware that they are self-inserts and that she was put into This Bites.Can also be found on Spacebattles.Plus, a Patreon page.

comment
Unreliable Narrator: Ami deals with severe anxiety issues and gets overstimulated easily, often missing crucial details and events like Carue boarding the Going Merry. At worst, her higher cognitive functions shut down entirely. It leaves her running on autopilot, unable to recall the events she witnessed. She also has trouble reading people and social situations in general, so she regularly jumps to the worst conclusions on the impressions she makes.

Batman Gambit: Ami takes the newspaper with Vivi's photograph from Loguetown in chapter 2 and shows it off to her crew mates in chapter 4 after catching the two bounty hunters. She knows Cross will instantly understand what she's doing, and at least one of the others will see the similarities between the photo and Vivi in her disguise.

Noodle Incident: Little Garden ends up similarly chaotic as in This Bites!. Ami finds herself having a picnic with the other Straw Hats, the giants, and Ms. Goldenweek, with her knocked-out Baroque Works associates surrounding them. She doesn't remember anything about how they ended up in this situation after saving Dorry and Broggy because she ended up overwhelmed. Cross and Ussop's attempts at constructing a timeline of the events failed.

Cast from Hit Points: Like the Op-Op-Fruit, Ami's Copy-Copy-Fruit uses up her stamina. Justified in that Copy Essence, which she uses to copy objects, skills, and abilities, draws from her life force.

Not His Sled: Ami calls out Luffy when he attempts to break of Merry's mast as a makeshift weapon to get Laboon's attention. Nami violently makes sure to stop him. Because of Ami’s interference, Vivi reveals that she’s Alabasta’s princess hours before they arrive at Whiskey Peak instead of around any of Baroque Work's agents. Ms. Sunday doesn’t wait until the crew leaves Whiskey Peak on the Going Merry. Rather she crashes the party they are having on Luffy’s insistence. Igaram thus stays with Vivi, as he doesn't play decoy.

Made of Plasticine: Because of different circumstances, Nami gives Cross his first Dope Slap, and only a Dope Slap because she’s merely annoyed at him. So while it knocks him down, it doesn’t knock him out. Ami used the month she has already spent in the One Piece World to strengthen her body so she’s less brittle. The two of them still are relatively fragile compared to the others who, as natives, are Made of Iron.

Secret Underground Passage: At least several tunnels lead from Iwai's shipyard to other places in the city, one each for some safehouses and one to Lala's bar and back. Fitting, as both have ties to Loguetown's underworld.

Mood Whiplash: In chapter 9, the lighthearted conversation about the advantages of being a royal switches tone once Vivi starts talking about the World Nobles having a grudge against her family. It switches back to funny when Cross jokes if it was about a member of the Nefertari family breaking something priceless. Ami and Soundbite continue the Ouran High School Host Club reference. Vivi shuts the jokes down and reveals that her family was the only one who rejected the ascension to become World Nobles.

Oh, Crap!
 Copycat Isn't a Compliment (Fanfic) / int_ad1db87c
comment
Oh, Crap!: In chapter 4 As You Mean to Go On, the Going Merry accidentally lands on Laboon's back while he was sleeping and rudely awakened him. He quickly sinks to get Merry off, then rises in front of the crew. In chapter 5 Chaotic Heart, the Unluckies appear outside the control room inside Laboon's tunnels. Cue tossed time bomb. In chapter 6 Join the Party!, Vivi's ditziness rears its head as she once again reveals the secret of who is Baroque Works' boss. It leads to no less than 5 separate breakdowns. Ms. Sunday makes an appearance much earlier than expected. In chapter 10 Panic Induction and Reduction for Dummies, Mr. 5 is hiding inside Going Merry, alone. That means that Ms. Valentine will launch an attack from the air. After the group has dragged the two human agents into the jungle, they come back to now find the Unluckies waiting for them. In chapter 11 The Choices We Make, Ami recognizes the symptoms of Cross' cholera seconds before he falls unconscious. several moments occur quickly one after another when a large part of the crew step onto deck and Nami and Zoro confront Ami on that Cross - who currently has no filter because of his fever - somehow knows about Vivi's relationships to both Alabasta's king and the rebel leader, their names, that Ami once said something about "spilling information she wasn't supposed to", and that she and Cross seem to know each other from somewhere. So they would like an explanation now.

Chapter 11's ending, The Choices We Make: Wapol's submarine emerges from the waves while Cross is sick with the super-cholera.

 Copycat Isn't a Compliment (Fanfic) / int_d39e327f
comment
What the Hell, Hero?: One of Ami's biggest points of contention with Cross is his tendency to insult and / or manipulate people like Smoker or Vivi with his words, even when the point he's making is true or it's to push events to a better path. For her, there are better ways than to emotionally break someone who doesn't deserve the harshness.

Vitriolic Best Buds
 Copycat Isn't a Compliment (Fanfic) / int_d7fc9fd0
comment
Vitriolic Best Buds: Cross, Soundbite, and Ami. Soundbite and Cross love to troll and insult each other. Ami and Cross are prone to grating on each other's nerves because of their different temperaments, attitudes, and approaches to the same situation (like when to reveal the secret that they know future events). Ami and Soundbite clash because the latter likes to troll or insult the former. At the same time they easily joke with and quickly jump in to defend each other. One good example of the trio's strengthening bond as of chapter 11 is Soundbite reaching out to Ami when he can't sleep while Cross is sick and unconscious and the crew is suspicious of her.
