Y’all love how I write for Luffy and I do too. I’ll let y’all in on a little secret…since I love you all so much.
⬇️My little secret under the cut!⬇️
The reason why I write for Luffy the way I do is because of my headcanon that I’ve made for my personal use and thought.
I’ve crafted this headcanon way before I even started writing for Luffy, when I was reading other writers depictions and detail of him.
When I started watching op and continued reading fics about him, I felt that writers weren’t catching his speech in a way that I caught it. (Not saying that’s a bad thing at all, I enjoy every single Luffy fic I read regardless of who wrote it!)
Over the course of reading subtitles and sorta listening to his english dub, I conclude that Luffy has a somewhat thick southern or country accent.
(This also applies for Sanji but instead of a southern accent, he had a honey-coated french accent!)
Luffy’s english is more different than everyone else’s.
What I mean is that he speaks in a way that cuts off words or abbreviates them so he can either pronounce them easier or just to get his point across quickly. He just can’t help it❤️
Examples of Luffy’s abbreviated speech!
Ya (instead of you)
Wan’ (instead of want)
Ion or don’ (instead of I don’t or don’t)
M’gonna (M’ instead of I’m)
Y’gonna (Y’ instead of ya)
Wanna (instead of I wanna)
S’good! (S’ instead of so)
And many more!
I adore how Luffy’s Brazilian too and that’s what makes this entire headcanon even cuter yet funnier for me. I understand I’m a bit weird but I can’t help but to think that for my baby Lu!
In conclusion,
I LOVE MY SOUTHERN/COUNTRY BRAZILIAN RUBBER MAN!
Alright. Back to the Luffy imagines and random ideas and submissions submitted by y’all!
