Me when I Carmine Accidenti your Herlock Sholmes

i feel like not enough ppl are factoring in the cultural clash between laios and shuro and the many micro agressions shuro faced while being in their group. literally the name 'shuro' in itself is one

his name is toshiro 😭 lets also not forget that he has his own communication issues, in the opposite way that laios does- thats literally a factor in their argument, that his envy for laios's ability to express himself sincerely manifested as part of his distaste for him.

ig all this to say like, was their fight heart wrenching, especially when reading laios as autistic? absolutely. anybody whos ever been in laios's position knows how much it hurts to realize someone you thought was your friend doesnt actually like having you around, especially when they didnt tell you and you had no way of knowing due to not understanding their cues. but im begging yall to step back and see the nuance of this situation cause im gonna be real a lot of you are kinda just brushing over it acting like everything is toshiros fault and that hes a terrible person when in reality hes an average guy who really, really clashed with laios and it led to a very long misunderstanding due to their supremely opposite methods of communication. even laios and toshiro, after letting everything out in their fight, were able to come to an understanding and start a foundation for an actual friendship built on better communication

ok yknow what Edit: i shouldve made it even more explicit at the end of this post, i hadnt thought i would need to since i started the post with this, but i think a few too many people are missing my point so i just wanna clarify. i shouldnt have said 'really clashed' and left it at that because yeah they did, but it wasnt just their opposite methods of communication, it is also very much that toshiro was experiencing microaggressions via laios. it may have been unintentional on laios's part, but it still happened and wore him down, made it harder for him to communicate on top of both the more subtle social cues that he was raised with and his own communication difficulties. i also want to say that the fandom reaction to toshiro and the complete ignorance of this point is also racist tbh or at the very least ignorant. i understand that the anime did not cover this panel, and neither did the manga, as this was an omake, but im gonna be real with you guys. there are enough context clues within the story to clue you into this. if you didnt pick up on it thats ok, but i think this is a good lesson in picking up subtext in the stories that youre watching and/or reading. kui shouldnt have to explicitly say 'by the way laios was racist to toshiro' for this point to be understood, and at the very least, when the author portrays a character in a sympathetic light (as kui clearly does) it should make you question Why they are doing so and what makes them sympathetic, rather than youre immediate and only reaction to be 'well i hated what this guy did/said so i hate them and they suck'. idk exactly how to finish this, just. idk. question your biases and gut reactions to things you see in media and stories, and think about whether or not theres subtext that youre missing.

AU: Kuina lived and her father was supportive of her ambition. He sent her to Wano to learn the way of the swords so they meet again when Zoro arrived at Wano.

I just rlly wanted to design a giant Kuina after seeing how big Kiku is :)))

three cool and fun characters that are definitely not just minecraft mobs as humans

(I JUST REALIZED I FORGOT SUNNY BUTTERFLY WINGS SHHH)

fun details about these designs:

Tallulah:

- tallest of all the eggs bc of will

- sweater has a lot of personalization bc of her recent “alone” arc

- hair has recently been cropped short again

- the ribbon around her waist is gold <3

- mushroom hat is represented by a clip on her beanie

Chayanne:

- crown from his new hat his skull mask is at his hip

- he is the second shortest of the older eggs (pomme is the shortest :>)

- his black hair and style is from missa

- but he has feathers and blonde hair bc of phil

- i forgot to draw the draw strings for the jacket but they are also gold <3 he also has light pink tips from previous hair colors

Sunny:

- goat ears bc tubbo she also has a tail

- apron & dirt on boots from working with their pa

- diamond cuffs on her leather jacket bc they’re always duel wielding diamonds

- big tutu/skirt bc she deserves it

Em:

- multi hair bc her moms (niki would love the raccoon tail) rt is pink, other front piece brown, back blonde

- cat hat has her pancakes on top

- cat hybrid traits but i’m thinking about lil bumps for horns under the hair

- i feel like she has some of the cutest outfits bc bagi spoils her

i wanted to put Wally in my Barbie movie fit <3 he's gonna go watch it with his bestie

Alright i think the coast is clear, kanako integrity duo GO‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

I think they’d have fun sharing a half melted amalgamate body and have riveting conversations

Peryite is such an underrated daedric prince to me, conceptually. His sphere of influence has so much potential to explore. Like, disease and the natural order together? The way his followers see disease as a blessing? I love the implications there alone. He's the weakest prince, but his sphere has the potential to be so subtly destructive. One of his symbols, skeevers, represents that so well. The series has been kinda meh at exploring the princes philosophically but I feel like they are right on the cusp of something interesting with him, but since he isn't as flashy or obviously "bad" (or sexy) as the other ones he keeps getting put on the backburner. Gimme an interesting Peryite storyline pretty please. Explore things a little

"tori spring loves reading"
