hi! first of all I really love your fic. Second of all, this migh be a bit of a dumb question but, when in the tags you call it a Tragedy, in which sense of the word are you using it? Is it in a looser modern term, that is, indicating that bad/sad things are going to happen to the protagonist (kinda like whump I guess)? Or is it a more classical term, be it man against fate/man against itself/a fatal flaw which dooms them even as they keep going forwards? Because if so, if you had to choose a classical tragedy that’d suit Lami as protagonist, which would it be? Third of all, again, really love your fic! Also do you have any references on how kid/adult Rin may look like? Wishing you the best!

Good afternoon! Thank you for the ask, I’m super happy to hear that you’ve enjoyed the story so far ^^

Sorry for the delay, I’ve been travelling and haven’t had much spare time.

Not a dumb question at all! This is actually very interesting. Both are definitely relative to the story, but the “angst” tag is there specifically for the sad/whump. Dead Dove is there to really hammer in that it’s gonna be sad and fucked haha. The tragedy tag is definitely based more on the classical term of it, especially when taken in context of classic plays, but its also with a lot of inspiration from modern literature. The themes I associate this story & tragedy with are: doomed by the narrative; you can never go back; died and brought back wrong; the everyday tragedy of circumstance, etc, but the ones you mention here are also very applicable!

I am completely blanking on what classic tragedy would suit her—if I think of one I’ll let you know. I’ve been on a Greek mythology binge lately (does one ever give up on such a thing?) and while it’s less a tragedy and more a story of warning of man’s hubris, I’d associate her with the story of Sisyphus. It just fits haha

Rin! I love that girl, thank you for your love for her <3 There's been a few Rin drawings floating about, but they are all a couple years old. Here's an example of how I envision an adult Rin:

Rin's favourite colour is red 🚩🚩🚩 hahahah

Chapter 27 has been posted!

Hello friends ^^

Chapter 27 has been posted!

Hi, I really love your fic, and I've wondered when the next chapter will be uploaded. Would it be this week or the next?

Thank you! I'm glad that you are enjoying PYP ^^

I've been thinking about this for a couple days. I'll be travelling in March so I won't have much time to write, so I've been telling myself that I need to post by then.

My struggle (as often is) is that there was a Certain Place (tm) I wanted to end this chapter on... but I've been adding more scenes and ideas I want to flesh out before this happens. There's a lot of stuff later on in the story that needs the foundations of these early days, sighs.

So, given the fact that I probably won't get to the point I want in this chapter, I plan on posting what I have some time tonight or tomorrow. As I am mostly done editing what I have written so far, I just need to find a good place to end the chapter--which I will focus on tonight.

When will you post the next chapter?

Hey there!

No set date as of yet; I'm almost done the chapter but I'm not certain when it'll be published. Hoping for sometime this week or next week—I'll let you guys know in advance when I'm in the editing process and about to post ^^

Today on: Keeping up with the Donquixote

Did you abounded your fic ? ( Please no, it was really good )

I'm happy to hear that you've enjoyed PYP!

Nope, the story isn't abandoned. I just haven't had the free time to actually sit down and write lately T-T

Hello! For an art request, how about drawing a switcheroo of clothing with lami and Doflamingo and law and Cora, adult version or children version? Imagining lami and law wearing their clothes while doing those little dramatic dance poses from Lilo and stitch as Lilo tries to teach stitch Elvis Presley stuff gets me cracked up!

Of course, just a suggestion do with this what you will. Oh and thank you for pretty much existing, the world would be a little bit more boring without you in it 😁

Here's some Trafalgar's in the Donquixote's attire.

I might revisit this to do some goofy memes with the lilo and stitch scene, because that sounds cute!

Thank you for existing as well!! Your kind words have been on my mind since you sent this ask 😭♡♡♡

Hi, when will you post the next chapter ?

Hello!

No set date yet, I'm still whittling away at the next chapter ^^ I'll let you guys know in advance when I am in editing and about to post it.

Thank you all for your patience!

hi i just finished reading your fic, and lemme just say I AM OBSESSED i LOOOOOOOOVE the vibe youve done with it its sooooo cool holy crap lami is sooooooo. shes so fucked up badass. shes has such horror movie protagonist vibe she must be one hell of an uncanny valley photo model

Askdjfkdfj--thank you so much!!! I'm so happy to hear that you've liked it so far! ♡♡♡ I'm also glad that you are feeling the horror movie vibes because that is certainly what I am going for ^^ I love doomed by the narrative plots and it pairs so well with an overall tone of unease and creeping discomfort....

A "fucked up badass" is exactly what I want for Lami, haha! :^) She's a bit more fucked up than badass at this point, though. Slowly crawling her way to badass territory!

If Lami were to be a horror movie protagonist then she is crossing her fingers that she makes it to the end. Or, alternatively, that she is the big bad--either option works for her! Let her slash her way to survival, pls.

More Trafalgar memes

After watching the One Piece Live Action multiple times in the past few weeks, I can genuinely say that I adore it. What a fun ride it is! Perfectly encompasses the joy and adventure of the series while taking some liberties with the story.

Hi, is it possible (only if you want to, of course) for you to draw your Lami in an anime style ? (Ps: again your fic is amazing 😍)

… this was hard!!! I chose the classic Oda style since I was struggling with a typical “anime” style... and still had to use 6 characters as a reference. This is Lami as she is now in the story (as of chapter 26).

Also thank you!!! I’m glad to hear that you have enjoyed pyp so far ^^

Man, King, God.

aaaaand, suddenly, two weeks have passed. Summer is flying by.
