My body decided 1 hour of sleep is fine so here’s some riveting content
The ghouls (ALL OF THEM) and if they’d peel an orange for their loved one if they asked .
Swiss: already had it peeled before they asked
Phantom: tries really hard but ends up poking a bunch of holes in it and mushing it up on accident
Dew: no
Rain: no. Unless it’s dew and then he’s feeding the orange slices to him by hand. No to everyone else though
Mountain: would grow them an orange tree
Cumulus: sets each slice out on a napkin in a row for optimal eating
Cirrus: is really confused as to why they cant but does it anyways
Aurora: no she doesn’t like it when her hands smell like oranges all day
Aether: of course, even shows them the best way he’s found to do it
Sunshine: she tries but forgets halfway who it’s for and eats part of it
Ifrit: also does his very best but is better at making orange juice than peeling it
Zephyr: no and calls them ableist for making them do it when they’re disabled
Ivy: yes and uses his powers to make the orange a bit sweeter
Delta: uses a knife while staring at them, slicing the orange open very very carefully. It’s extremely awkward and strange no one really asks him
Mist: no. Walks away with her new found orange
Pebble: no, also asks if theyre stupid. unless theyre ivy and then they are sharing it and feeding each other
Cowbell: yes, takes a slice as tax
Alpha: yes but is patronizing about it
Omega: yes and gives them a pat on the head when he hands it back
River: no that’s not his problem
Lake: sure but is very confused
Air: yes
Earth: yes and makes sure they compost the peel, gives a small lecture on the importance of composting
Water: yes but is usually so high that he confuses himself while he’s doing it, but he tries so hard

I saw this series of quotes and why do you think that hat has three stabs from buggy? Is it truly connected to shuggy? Could shuggy really be that important???
so, here are the tweets in question. (one of which is from @goingbuggy! hi there! this is, what, the third time someone’s asked me to talk about your tweets? i guess at least one of my anons is a fan.)
i have wondered a time or two whether in oda’s early planning it might have been buggy who gave shanks that three-slash scar. (i’ve heard that oda originally had a five year plan for one piece, though i’ll admit i’ve never sought out a direct source for that.) in that case, the slashes through the hat might have been intended as foreshadowing.
but since buggy wasn’t the one to make that scar, instead it leads us to draw comparisons between these characters who both have wielded three blades on one hand. and maybe it’s just because they were both written as foils to luffy, but i find comparing buggy and blackbeard very interesting!
similarities:
former warlord of the sea/current emperor of the sea
devil fruit user
served on a big name’s crew back in the day
intentionally went under the radar/overlooked for years
doesn’t really buy into concepts like “loyalty” or “honor,” happy to turn on a crew mate or backstab an ally if it’s to his advantage
used to wield three blades but these days prefers explosive-adjacent weapons
not happy to see red-haired shanks at marineford
differences:
fell into those positions by chance/years of plotting to get into those positions
a devil fruit with zero combat utility (besides avoiding damage)/possibly the devil fruit with the most combat utility? (though, unusually, he can take damage while wielding it)
their reasons for going under the radar (fear of being hunted down/working towards a secret goal)
the consequences for overlooking them (for shanks: losing buggy/losing to bb, or at least taking a very bad wound from him; for others: misinformation on a global scale/the literal paramount war)
buggy is a strong believer in the captain-crew bond, which bb absolutely does not buy into
type of three-bladed weapon (three throwing daggers, suggests flexibility, hidden motives, a preference for distance fighting; claw weapon, suggests light-footedness, straightforwardness—you know when a claw wielder is about to start fighting, he’s gone and put the claws on)
type of explosive weapon (bombs, suggests pre-planning, a preference for distance fighting, maximum damage for minimum effort; guns, suggests a flexibility on distance vs melee range, a willingness to threaten rather than kill outright)
why they didn’t want to see shanks (ugh, that guy pisses me off/i think that guy might literally kill me lmao)
