finally,,, East Blue Polycule Smooches,,,,,,

I'm a huge supporter of the crocodad theory and I think you illustrated it beautifully

One of the aspects of this idea I don't see very often is Crocodile actually dealing with baby Luffy, so I like that you included that here. Taking care of a baby while your a wanted criminal can't be easy

If you don't mind me asking, when specifically do you think Crocodile dropped off Luffy?

I'm glad you liked my illustration! And yeah, I do not think Crocodile had Luffy for very long at all. It's just too dangerous for someone like him.

I actually only just began thinking so hard about crocodad au/theory like, yesterday? So i haven't thought too hard about it besides my feverish scribbling. But, it cannot have been too long after birthing him that he handed him off to Dragon, and Dragon couldn't have had him long either... I'd like it to be canon compliant, so Iva would have to have never seen or heard that Dragon had this kid.. so I'd imagine maybe a month tops after birth, that's when Crocodile really was not safe enough being a parent so he dropped the kid with Dragon, who immediately set out for Garp without even telling his revolutionaries where he was going? That's the way I'd see it all working, I think. Crocodile probably still wonders what would've happened, had he kept the child, and Luffy, by the end of the next week, was already with Garp or maybe even Makino, because I doubt Garp raised him from infancy

Once again my thoughts are jumbled but I hope the idea is there

I think this is kinda ridiculous

Whats Luffys tattoo say?

It's his 3D2Y mark from post-marineford!

A promise he'll see his friends again, of course, but also a reminder to never fail like he did two years ago... It works both as a representation of his defeat, but also his resolve. Bonus points because it's reminiscent of Ace's tattoo!

(Of course, he also has the Alabasta X!)

Movement is the motivation tonight

good zolu afternoon everyone

Vinsmokes (+sanji) body type headanons if anyone cares

You know I love reading your one piece thoughts, so here is an ask for you!

Who is your favorite one piece character and what part of their narrative appeals to you the most? 🥰

My favorite one piece character is Luffy. I took a long time to be able to say that, because I love all the straw hats so much it hurts, but given how much I insert him into everything I can't ignore that any longer.

As for what part of his narrative... ouhhh it's everything. I love that he's free, and that he lives unabashedly, and I love that from the very beginning he's been exactly that. He's like the indomitable human spirit personified and it makes him everything to me. For such a simple character he manages to be so very complex without even a single insight to his thoughts even once in the entire manga (did you know that? He has no inner monologue. Not once, not ever). I guess this all ties into him being the sun god. That reveal was everything to me, and yet it changed so little of him, because he has *always* been this way. He's so very inspiring to me and I love the way that he loves, so simply and yet so deep...

Such a character being the sun and the freest man alive makes me so very happy and I will always always love him for it.

Wow once again this was so incredibly disjointed... but that's okay I looove yapping about Luffy I could talk about my headcanons and thoughts about him for hours... I tried to keep on the topic of his sun god type narrative but it didn't quite work.

Recent Luffy doodles... he's my muse, I think. When I don't know what to draw, he appears on my page.

been thinking nonstop about the asl brothers and would love to hear you yap about them

Ouhhh the ASL bros.... apologies in advance for how Luffy-heavy this is.

They are very important to me... Luffy's my favorite character and so of course I am made weak by his brothers. They're so incredibly tragic that it pains me to think about them. Did you ever think about the fact that Sabo and Luffy are the two who know each other the least? Sabo and Ace had at least three years before Sabo disappeared, and Ace and Luffy had seven years together before Ace set out, but Luffy and Sabo only knew each other through Ace for less than a year, twelve years ago. They're probably weird without the context of Ace in between them.

This of course isn't to say their bond isn't strong or they don't love each other as much, but being near each other must cause such an ache for their third brother given they were never around each other without Ace there... kind of like when Sabo "died" and Luffy and Ace kept talking to him anyways before getting embarrassed and upset as soon as they remembered Sabo's not here anymore.

Urghh I also think the beginning of Luffy's relationship with Ace is the blueprint for Luffy trying to befriend anyone, and probably the proof to him (though he already knew it) that he could get anyone in his corner if he was just persistent. This is an attitude he keeps throughout all his adventures and everyone he meets, from his "I refuse your refusal!" to Sanji to his consistent pestering of Law...

Ace is just a whole mess of his own... he changed so drastically and even learned manners for Luffy in order to thank Shanks for saving him (something something changing for the better because of someone you love). This completely changed his interactions with others, I think. I love whenever there are nods in comics or fics to Ace being remembered by Luffy's crew as this polite guy, and when Sabo hears of this he's just hopelessly confused and probably a little sad, too, that he missed such a change in his brother and never had the chance to meet him like that.

Back to Luffy though because I'm insane... Ace is such a good meter for Luffy's growth... I recently saw someone commenting on the way that Luffy speaks of Ace throughout post timeskip, from feeling so guilty meeting Sabo at Dressrosa to smiling when Marco told him Ace would be proud of him in Wano... I think a lot of that came from seeing Sabo, and knowing he had another brother alive. I think to Luffy, Sabo is the authority on Ace to some extent. That Sabo was simply happy Luffy was alive and wasn't upset at him for failing Ace was big for Luffy and he kind of took that to heart - it helped him really believe it... maybe that in a way caused him to be able to talk freely about Ace by the time he reached Wano...

Ughh this is all so disjointed and jumbled and I may think of more later but this has been my yapping for now.

here is a doodle :)

Why did the captains and first mates thing post twice

Would anyone like to hear me yap... idk I'd love the opportunity. If u see this maybe send me an ask about something one piece related.
