ACE WEEK

When someone asks me if I'm okay, and then I remember Charlie's facial expression whilst everyone else was singing.

Neil's death hit Charlie the hardest, and I am willing to die on that hill

Watching Percy talk to his mother and the first thing he tells her is that he made real friends…Luke Castellan im in your walls.

romance dawn trio is so soldier, poet, king 😔

zoro = "there will come a soldier/who carries a mighty sword/he will tear your city down/oh-lei-oh-lai, oh lord"

nami = "there will come a poet/whose weapon is his words/he will slay you with his tongue/oh-lei-oh-lai, oh lord"

luffy = "there will come a ruler/whose brow is laid in thorn/smeared in oil like david's boy/oh-lei-oh-lai, oh lord"

in which david is roger and his boy, of course, is ace

they both carry something from roger, ace — his blood, and luffy — his legacy (of being pirate king)

someone give me an edit of this right now 😔

omg jkl

Luffy may have fought his way out of a horrible prison and through a deadly war just to have Ace die anyway, but god damn it, Luffy's effort to save his brother was not a waste. Ace was treated like a monster by society from the day he was born, to the point that he hated every part of himself too and didn't see a reason for living, but his last words to Luffy were "Thank you for loving me."

Thank you for loving me.

Thank you for loving me.

Luffy's love was never, ever in vain. Portgas D. Ace died knowing that he was loved, his body held securely in the arms of someone who'd spent ten years trying to convince Ace that he was worthy of it.

Love is never wasted.

2 😰

Every soldier walks to their stations. Those who lead makes their last inspections. Platoon 8 glances anxiously at the empty spot before them.

Grifh restlessly picks on a hangnail, "Shouldn't our Lieutenant be here already?"

"We don't even know his name," Said the guy beside him. Rovell? or something.

"Or her."

Grifh glanced at the woman in front. He thinks he should learn his co-workers names.

"As you said, we don't know yet."

Their very short conversing ends there as some guy higher up goes their way. Grifh looks at his tag — Ah, he's a Captain — and salutes.

"At ease," Captain grunts. He reads over the clipboard he's holding and looks at the empty spot.

Grifh's heart rate quickens. He's very nervous, okay? He prays internally for their Lieutenant.

"Platoon 8?"

They nod.

The captain sighs, "Don't expect your Lieutenant to come right away. Though, it says here she'll arrive in the evening."

Oh. How anticlimactic. He was quite curious.

"See? He says she's a she." Banter starts right back up. Always those two, somehow.

"That's literally not the point-"

Grifh tunes them out as he realizes that Captain never really told them their Lieutenant's name. He is left to wonder.

daily entry (ast.)

i'm rereading circe by madeline miller for my literary analysis essay in english using a feminist approach/lens

You can't convince me that Garp didn't force his grandson to learn the marine code and rules. And wouldn't it be funny if when they were pirates and revolutionaries all the marine codes were used to their advantage, Just imagine the face of a regular marine who suddenly sees a pirate who knows all their areas of operation and codes.

And Sengoku wouldn't know what to do with this, all he knew was that Garp had at least tried to make them marines. But still, all of that was ultimately used to create problems for him.

recently js listened to the whole epic the musical and then started warriors concept album. i'll find a way to related them to one piece somehow (ive gone back to my hamilton phase too so expect that as well)

percy getting automatically pissed off by ares at camp jupiter even tho he’s lost his memory and doesn’t remember their past has to be the funniest shit ever. their beef transcends the fickleness of the psyche
