#The idea of letting go and ceasing to give a shit and tearing your treacherous coworker a new one
Text
I love Dundy so so much but Christ, do I hate how fucking calm he seems in that Lawful Mutiny scene...!
Little is riled the fuck up. He's the most animated and impassioned we've perhaps ever seen him, using uncharacteristically expressive language too ("this coven of traitors", "that devil").
Le Vesconte, in sharp contrast, appears cool and collected, to the point of complete detachment and numbness (I say appears because of course he's suffering too). He speaks slowly and plainly, clearly having rehearsed, and chooses his words very very carefully indeed (those too ill to walk will not be left behind, for example, they'll just "stay").
It's almost like he's that arsehole in a disagreement who tries to convince you that they're right just because they're arguing in a calm, 'logical', grammatically-correct manner, and you're wrong just because you're getting passionate and emotional over the subject at hand.
Like, just imagine being Little in that situation!
You've been suppressing your emotions for god knows how long, keeping your anger and resentment simmering just below the surface for as long as you can remember for fear of what will happen if you let those emotions show, fear that it'll just make things worse.
But finally you can suppress no longer, something in you breaks. All that anger and resentment starts to boil over but you find that you were right - letting those emotions show didn't help at all, it made everything worse, just as you feared.

Hello again! So, how about that: we know, what Vismoke's brothers, are really mean to all aroun them, but what if they have a marriage of convenience, and in order to piss off their bride, they will mock her in every possible way, but instead of tears they will get a face blow to the wall and "Are you want to die, fucker? You annoying" Like, very strong and confident girl. Like, their reactions and future relationship? (i hope i write it right, because my english not so good).
Oh, this sounds promising! Your English is just fine, my darling, I gotchu~! I’m honestly worried I didn’t get their characters totally right (Niji gave me a damn of a hard time lol), but I’m pretty darn proud of the research I did and the many vids I looked up for reference on these guys haha.
Warnings: mentions of abuse and harassment. These guys were born with no feelings, don’t really expect a happy marriage…
Vinsmoke Ichiji
Tumblr media
Actually, he isn’t into mocking his wife that much. He doesn’t have any obligation to care for her, which makes him the kind of distant husband. From the moment they were back from the luxurious banquet of their wedding ceremony, he goes on with his life, and honestly expects her to do the same. They might live under the same roof now and share a bed (sometimes), but their relationship feels like anything but that of a married couple.
Most of their interactions end up being curt greetings or a couple of very meaningless “goodnight’s” before going to sleep. He doesn’t poke his nose into her business, and neither does she seem to care about him. Quite honestly, since they allow each other a fair amount of freedom, neither has complained about this bland lifestyle.
Sometimes, he might just open his mouth outside of these ordinary cases, and I’ll let you know that it’s not going to be to tell her how beautiful and smart his wife is. Oh, no. There are times when they have a silent encounter in the library, or their room, and his s/o starts to hum quietly to herself while she reads, or to tap her foot against the carpet. Well, Ichiji would rather she kept quiet, and is not afraid of voicing exactly that. Sugarcoating is not his style.
He might be the most patient out of the three brothers, but his bullshit tolerance still runs thin very quickly. This is why when his wife continues doing whatever “annoying” noise as if she had never heard him – he might even start considering she’s hard of hearing, because that’s some nerve she got there! – he’ll soon start demanding that she leaves the room immediately, even if it was him who entered after her.
The glare she sends his way, he reluctantly decides to consider it strike two, going back to whatever he was doing just because causing some ruckus so early in their married life would mean discrediting the Vinsmoke family. Now, guess what is strike three and, ultimately, his tipping point? You got it: she started disrupting the peaceful quiet of the room once again.
When Ichiji pins her down by her jaw against the nearest surface without caring about her skin possibly being bruised by the force, and suggests to teach her some discipline, the last thing he expects is the piercing pain delivered on the juncture between his thumb and index finger. It takes him a couple of seconds to completely believe that his annoying little wife is biting him, but like hell he’s going to let her have it her way.
They just, kind of stay in that position, Ichiji’s fingers tightening as best as they could around her jaw, and so did her teeth on his sturdy skin, until she started to taste a few beads of blood. Only then does he jerk his hand away, noticing how she looks at him with big, defiant eyes, despite having reached to rub her sore jaw.
After he briskly left the room, their relationship cools down even more. There’s no verbal exchange between them anymore, his s/o starts to find countless other places to sleep rather than his bed, and several days can go by without neither knowing a thing about the other. Neither care, they both have as much freedom as if they weren’t married in the first place. Now it’s just a matter of time until his s/o can find a way to ditch him and both kingdoms…
Vinsmoke Niji
Tumblr media
Niji can sense from the very beginning of their weird relationship that his wife isn’t one to let herself be bent and broken easily, which makes the idea of the marriage, although majorly undesirable, quite exciting for him. He makes it his goal to see that charmingly confident attitude of hers switch to submissive whenever he enters the room.
His first approach is going to feature intimidation. He’ll be perfectly able to sleep the night after he turns his s/o into a mushy puddle by cornering her against a wall and showing her who’s boss. However, things got a little turned against him when she just stared blankly at him, unimpressed, and hummed with an alarming amount of disdain coming from a person who was being squashed against a wall by a beating machine.
For the sake of his reputation and pride he’s not going to stop there. He tries about anything to soften her harsh exterior in his favor: one day he tried to get a satisfying reaction by knocking her dish over when they ate together (occurence which grew to be less frequent the more time they spent as a married couple) only to order her to clean it up, but she didn’t obey, looked at him as if he had lost his mind and left.
One night he tried to force himself on top of her on their bed, pressing his lips against hers and catching her wrists in a painful grip. When he tried to deepen the kiss after she had ceased her struggling, thinking that he had already won this match, she bit his lip with as much force as she could muster, which ended up leaving small dents on his flesh for over a week for his brothers to see.
Once he has run out of patience (which ends up happening sooner than it was expected, provoked by his brothers’ merciless teasing), Niji isn’t above slapping his wife into submission. What infuriates him the most, however, is that she always returns the hit, doesn’t let him submit her to his will. And what angers him even more is that her hits do hurt. He must have been stuffing his face in sweets somewhere when her skills were explained, otherwise he wouldn’t be surprised by the sting of the many bruises that appeared on his face and arms after their quarrels.
Niji hates that he got scolded by Judge for the injuries that his wife had caused on him. He called him weak and useless for the first time in ages, and if that didn’t infuriate Niji. He couldn’t even care about how dangerous it was for the alliance between the two kingdoms to hit his wife!
He hates that this relationship is making him feel like the weak one. He hates that his wife is so terribly unemotional, which was ironic enough, coming from a man like him. He hates that he can’t seem to make his father proud on this one, and that his brothers won’t let him live it down. The situation is so tense that a few punches have been delivered between the siblings, but nothing had the chance to escalate further thanks to Judge’s intervention.
Comes a point where Niji just kind of wants to call it quits, not that he actually has the option, but he doesn’t want to remain in a marriage that will put him through one failure after another. He might like strong-willed women, but he isn’t eager to spend his life with one that will just humilliate him. It’s so frustrating, but until he learns to live with it, he just starts to give her the cold shoulder and bitterly hope that something happens to make the alliance stop working, hopefully before he did actually go crazy.
Vinsmoke Yonji
Tumblr media
While he does love a healthy amount of teasing, what he loves the most is appreciating the body of a fine lady such as his wife. Yonji is barely capable of keeping his hands to himself during meetings, during the wedding, during their first nights together.
He’s going to be infuriatingly touchy whenever his s/o walks past him. The caress on her forearm and the finger twirling a strand of hair, those small gestures she can mostly stand. They feel almost chaste coming from him, which catches her off guard since he was the one who had been whispering all kind of lecherous promises into her ear since they were paired together.
The actual problem arises when his hands become a little too treacherous and start to aim for her butt or chest, even in public spaces, although he tries to refrain himself a little – he has a reputation to keep clean. He doesn’t ask for permission though, always goes for what he believes that belongs to him.
The first time he found himself harshly pressed against the nearest wall after pinching his wife’s ass, he was utterly bewildered but, as he processed the situation and felt her fingers gripping tighter and tighter around his biceps… Boy, did it actually turn him on. He always liked the feisty type, after all.
He’s the kind of stubborn little shit who keeps messing with his s/o only to see the defiance in her reaction. Unfortunately for her, he learns to read her awfully right after the first mistake, and she often finds herself pressed up against the wall, looking up at him with those raging eyes that he likes so much.
Sometimes Yonji will let her have it her way, being just satisfied with how utterly angry she appears to be, but there are other times when he just enjoys seeing her lose her challenging composure, and will tease her mercilessly until she’s a scowling, disheveled mess.
He enjoys hearing her beg him to stop (or to keep going, but that might be unrealistic, given their tense relationship), so if she swallows her pride and does just that for him, he might let her go easily. There’s something about her disappointed frown and angry tears that he finds pleasant to the eye.
He sometimes wakes up with deep bite marks all over the fingers he had used to molest her the day before, but it’s really nothing that can’t be fixed. Even though it might get annoying after the first few times it happens, Yonji just happens to think that it’s a funny attempt to punish him for his moves. His wife quickly learns, though, that he enjoys returning the favor, preferably all over her neck.
