"Doc! Doc, where are you, brother?" Ren called as he flew into the perimeter, book clutched tightly in his hand.
It was night, which Ren did not want either, because the moon was full and his brain was buzzing with the sound of lighting filling his ears. He flew around until he found Doc fiddling with some redstone. Ren didn't know which particular monstrosity of a machine it was, but he landed and ran over to him, thrusting the book at him.
"Doc, I-I found it, I found-"
"Hmm? What's this?" Doc flipped through it, sort of recognising some of Ren's scrambled writing, but to be honest, it was all a little difficult to decipher. "Are you okay? You don't look okay."
"Last season was meant to be a simulation, yeah? None of that was meant to be real?" Ren ventured, searching Doc's eyes as he gripped his arms.
"Uh, yeah, that's what I understand happened. Why? What's this book got to do with anything?" Doc said.
"That's the moon rock book," Ren said with absolute certainty. "You know, from when I went mad? I found it in a chest under the Crastle when I was cleaning up the last of the chests I'd left there. And it's not supposed to be real. And yet it's here. I know it's mine because it has my scent on it, and yours. It smells old enough. And that's my writing. I'm sure it's the real book, Doc."
"Oh. The- right before we- oh. Yeah. Okay," Doc said, handing him the book back.
Ren couldn't read his expression as he stashed the book away. "It's been a year, Doc. Like, I think yesterday was the day it all... I've been having nightmares all week. Hiding in holes in the ground if I'm out at night and no one's slept so I don't have to see the moon. I'm terrified of storms now, Doc, in a way I really wasn't before. I hear lightning all the time. I-I don't know if I'm just not coping or if my body somehow remembers but- I'm not okay, Doc. And finding that book has just shaken me. It can't have been real. It wasn't meant to be real, right?"
"No, it wasn't meant to be real," Doc said quietly. "I... I just thought the lightning in my head was normal. But you hear it too?"
Ren nodded. "It's like white noise, and then it cracks, and I see flashes behind my eyes when I'm sleeping. My nerves have been shot all season. Like I'm being electrocuted all the time. And I don't even have any mechanical bits anymore! That's also weird, you know?"
Doc brought him into a tight hug, and Ren held him back, whining softly, his body trembling as thunder rolled across the sky in the distance.
"It's been a year, huh? I'd almost forgotten," Doc said, rubbing Ren's back gently.
"It's been a year. Doc. What do I do if it's real? What does any of that mean if it's real?" Ren said.
"I dunno. But you can stay here with me as long as you need to. Maybe I don't want us too far apart either, you know?" Doc said.
"Yeah, we went through all that together. I'm not ready to-"
Ren paused, unsure of what words he even needed or was trying to find. He clung tighter to Doc, burying his face in his chest, seeking all the comfort he could find as the thunder rolled closer and the sky flashed behind them.

So here's to the love one can find in the stars.
now this one I call "I just summited minecraft fanfiction as a final project in my uni class, and got away with it." But anyway, enjoy some create s2 boys
and a transcript below the cut.
To Fields of Stars
There lies a small community off in the new growth of our world, one covered in new technology where the cogs of machines spin with flowers building their supports.
Here builds an architect's fantasy, where houses will walk across the flowering fields, trains sound off in the distance, and the automatons will power the complex machinery of their engines.
There, lives the engineer afraid of the moon.
The one who chooses to work the endless nights away, left plagued by nightmares of destroyed homes and frozen voids. a moon that lies a painful reminder of what could not be saved.
Yet each night, when the engineer is too tired to deny, and the moon has become anew, his friend of the sheep brings him to fields of flowers and lets the engineer lie down and watch the sky.
The sheep strings together stories of how stars are born. elaborate tales depicting the nebulas that dance intertwined. Stories of how the constellations love.
Slowly, without the blinding eye looming within the night, the engineer lets himself sleep. Slowly the engineer forgets his fear. Slowly he learns of names hidden in stars.
Slowly, ever so carefully, the engineer learns again how to love the bright void around him.

The funny thing about crocodile being such a loner is that in nature crocodiles THRIVE when other species trust them in symbiotic relationships

ALSO IM ACTUALLY A LITTLE VERY EXTREMELY EMOTIONAL ABOUT LUNAR SAYING THAT THEY FEEL SAFE IN SPACE BECAUSE THAT’S WHERE THEY WERE WHEN THEY WERE DEAD AND NOTHING HURT THEM WHEN THEY WERE DEAD. LIKE. AOAAOUUGHGHHH?!?!!!!
Even Helios trying to say “there’s still things that can hurt you in space. you wouldn’t be entirely safe there.” and Lunar just going “but I felt safe.” is so :(((((
Someone please get this poor lil dude OUT of these situations so that he doesn’t have to be literally dead and in limbo to feel like he’s safe

Lately, she hadn’t had to worry much about her baby coming back to their house under the tree. Being with their herd had done a lot to help them recover from whatever it was that has distressed them so much all those moon cycles ago. She liked her new home in the giant tree too! They had made a lovely nest for her, with the softest blankets, and her baby hadn’t slept in there with her for a long time now! Maybe soon she could return to the mountains to return to the other llamas once her baby no longer needed her.
She knew something was wrong when she heard them arrive back one day and go straight to the nest. She only saw because she’d just come back from outside, having enjoyed some time nibbling grass and watching the world from under the giant tree. And there they were, hiding in the nest, wrapped under a blanket, making distressed noises!
Oh, this hadn’t happened in a long while! She made her way over and lay down beside them, gently making her presence known.
“Just please make it stop, it’s too loud, too loud, Scar please make it stop…”
She looked back as they emerged from the blanket and wrapped their front legs around her neck. She hummed softly, hoping it would sooth them.
Something Bad had happened, it seemed, if they were back to hiding in the nest. She nudged and licked their head, offering what comfort she could.
She wondered what had caused their distress. Things had been better lately, much better! But clearly they were still not quite ready to be on their own yet.
“…gotta talk to Impulse, it’s too loud, too loud, gos my ears hurt so much…”
She could feel them starting to tremble again like they used to do during thunderstorms. She shifted and they moved enough so that she could rest her front leg over their body. That usually stopped the shakes.
Well, she knew what the rest of her day was going to be now. Her baby needed her! She’d stay right here until they were okay again.

So I just jokingly said to a friend that there’s a habit in the Kill Lunar AU where ‘baby’s first trauma’ (aka something horrific happening to them) turns their AI into an adult AI and, now that I’m thinking about it, that could be far too accurate. Because it’s happened with both Lunar and Star in the AU.
Downside: This means Nebula’s first huge trauma was being nearly killed by the maintenance team in his world and Ganymede’s was Sun being so nice to him after everyone treated him like a monster.
This would mean their AIs were developing AIs until that point. Nebula would have been a kid living in fear of being killed and hiding in their home (the daycare) to stay safe. And Ganymede was struggling with his coding and loneliness as essentially a kid who didn’t fully understand what was happening.

If Eddie and Chrissy had a favorite anime respectively, what would they be?
Please note that my anime phase consisted of just Bleach and Naruto, with some Dragon Ball Z and Sailor Moon growing up. Outside of that, I’ve got very limited knowledge lol I’m a pretty basic bitch when it comes to any of that 😅
I don’t know if either of them would be into anime, but if they were Chrissy would probably be a Sailor Moon girlie and Eddie would probably be into some obscure fantasy anime like Record of Lodoss War or something (it’s very hellcheer coded)

Etho dyed hair guy here!
He'd contemplate dying it closer to helps Bdubs get over his fear, but eventually ditch that idea and dye it a colour further away from the moon. Either way, Bdubs notices it and occasionally brings it up in conversation, but Etho says that 'he was looking for a change and DEFINITELY not doing it to help him'.
ooooo okay! that makes sense:) i honestly hadn't ever considered etho dying his hair over it being a natural color for him but i can def see it! this is v cute though<3 moon big my beloved i will never be normal about what happened to bdubs eueuueeueueu

Hey so what are your thoughts on the theory that Dragon might actually the biological son of Xebec? I think it's pretty interesting to think about considering the implications it has (depending on what ends up being canon).
For example, if Crocodad is real and Dragon is Xebec's son, that would imply that Garp's biological child is... Crocodile.
Also, I think it works well with the idea that Roger knew Garp would protect his child... because he saw him do that exact thing during the God Valley incident for the son of Xebec. Another child born from a man deemed an extreme by the World Government.
It's an interesting idea but the only reason people keep on suggesting that theory is just that the really vague silhouette of Xebec we have seen kinda vaguely resembles Dragon on the hair-department (and people want Xebec to connect to some other character somehow somewhere, thus we have also have people ALSO suggesting Xebec is related to (or straight up just is) Croc, Buggy, Blackbeard and god knows who else)
And I just personally don't buy it.
Main thing is that Garp has made it explicitly clear that Dragon is his child, his very own son, multiple times (and as recently as in the brief Aokiji flashback where he complains about his son becoming a revolutionary).
The other thing is that Garp and Dragon look alike
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Finding good panels to do comparisons is a bit hard, and the art can fluctuate a little bit (especially the hairlines for both characters) and when the characters aren't even doing the same expression it messes with the proportions a bit But generally speaking, they have similarly shaped hairlines and the same nose-shape. Hair texture too though it's less obvious since Garp has gone gray;; I would make a comparison to Young Garp but his nose is a different shape, but that just makes Young Garp look resemble Luffy so much more
Of course, I wouldn't put too much money on similar faces meaning things due to Oda's Same Face Syndrome, but really the only major differences between how Dragon and Garp look are Dragon's lack of eyebrows (or if he has eyebrows they're just really thin compared to Garp's bushier ones) and more hooded brows in general. In my mind, they look more alike than different and that very specific nose-shape alone says a lot
So I personally no doubt about Garp and Dragon being related, just as I have no doubt Garp and Luffy are related (and thus, by extension, Luffy and Dragon too)
It's also the fact that I see no point in Oda telling us who Luffy's dad is THROUGH GARP if they're not actually related, AND SO MANY YEARS AGO. Like, it'd just feel like a pointless lie, an absolutely useless plot-twist because like, while it would tell us a bit more about Garp, it wouldn't do anything to change Luffy and Dragon's non-existant relationship with each other, nor Luffy and Garp's. Like it'd be a twist for the sake of having a twist, throwing out nearly two decade old lore for what?
And I feel like Crocodad would make that even worse. Because suddenly we'd have to ask many uncomfortable questions about what kind of a relationship Garp has with his transgender pirate son. And if he considders his son-in-law more like his own family than Crocodile... fucking yikes, man. Like Garp is a flawed human being but I don't want to add that to the list of shit he's fucked up. Like despite everything, Garp is still understandable and likable (for me at least) and I just don't want him to get pushed over the edge like that
One last thing is that Dragon would've been 17 at the time of the God Valley incident (and Crocodile was 9). Like sure Garp could've lowkey adopted a 17 year old or just taken him in as a student, but still... He's a bit old to be taken in like that and for Garp to start considdering Dragon his own son
I just don't buy into the theory at all personally

Summary: Lord Eshteross sends Bells Hells on a mission to help an informant being chased for the information they found. Upon arriving at the safe house, Orym hears an unexpected sound and finds a little girl hiding in the basement. Orym, Will and Dorian take the girl to Jrusar, while the others search for her mother, hoping to reunite the two.
Fic Preview
“Thank you for coming on such short notice. This is an incredibly time sensitive matter.” Lord Eshteross motioned for them to take seats around the table, then took his own at the head of it. “An informant that has been sending me regular updates on underground dealings around Marquet uncovered a network of black-market deals that are concerning. Unfortunately, in the process of gathering this information, she was discovered and unable to send everything she gathered. She has gone into hiding in one of our safe houses a week and a half's journey from here. I need you to go there and escort her back here.”
After a quick glance at all their companions to gauge their reaction, he leaned forward to address Lord Eshteross. “Is there any other information you have on this person? Something we can tell them to prove we're allies or insight into how they might respond to us arriving.”
