She Let Me Hit Because I Care For All Creatures In The Forest Great And Small

Why is no one talking about this??

Shanks and his crew basically lived at Foosha Village for nearly a year. Like, Hello???

Don’t imagine little Luffy begging to have a sleepover at their ship every night. Don’t imagine Yasopp seeing Usopp in Luffy. Don’t imagine Benn taking Luffy to the marked so Shanks can have 10 minutes for himself. Don’t imagine Luffy waking the crew at the crack of dawn because he’s a over energized 6 year old. Don’t imagine Shanks getting so used to Luffy that he forgets that Luffy isn’t there anymore when they finally leave Foosha Village

GET. AI. OUT. OF. FANDOM. Stop making headcanons with it, stop making fanfic with it, stop making fanart with it. If I see one more "asking chatgpt *blank* about *character/characters in a fandom* I'm going to lose my goddamn mind. Use your own fucking brain, stop asking AI to do everything. You could even ask other real people what they think. Just. Stop. Using. AI. In. Creative. Spaces.

I literally just want Misako to say "I'm so sorry for abandoning you, I tried to protect you and I only caused you more pain, I know I have no right to come back into your life now, and you don't have to accept me, but I just want you to know that I'm sorry and I love you.”

LIKE PLEASE

I WANT TO SEE THEIR RELATIONSHIP BECOME AWKWARD. I WANT LLOYD NOT TO KNOW HOW TO ACT NOW THAT HE HAS HIS MOTHER BACK. I WANT TO SEE MISAKO QUESTIONING IF SHE'S BEING A GOOD MOTHER OR GOING OVER THE LINE BECAUSE SHE DON'T KNOW HOW TO HAVE A CHILD EITHER.

AND

I WANT GARMADON TO BE AFRAID OF HURTING LLOYD MORE THAN HE ALREADY HAS. BUT TRYING TO BE THE FATHER HE NEVER COULD. I WANT TO SEE LLOYD HAVING NIGHTMARES ABOUT HIS FATHER AND BEING TOO SCARED TO TELL HIM. THEY WANT TO BE A HAPPY FAMILY BUT WITH THEIR HISTORY THAT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE

This scene we all know, where Sanji kicks Luffy, speaks to me in a very deep way.

While of course, Sanji's goal was to hopefully push Luffy away, and put his life as a member of the Straw Hat crew behind him for good, this scene particularly shows us just how much hatred Sanji held towards himself. His captain knows this, hence his quote:

"No matter how much you kick me, you're the one getting hurt."

The way he speaks to Luffy, slowly more agitated with his kicks and facial expressions, tells us something important.

"Go away." "Get out of my sight." "Get out of my face, now!"

Can easily be classified as Sanji talking to himself and the shame he felt, placed back into the core of his trauma, surrounded by his abusers.

Sanji was kicking himself.

If I counted correctly, Sani kicks Luffy a total of 61 times, including his final blow, which is not shown in this clip. I've written extensively before about how well Oda writes about trauma, and how he implements buddhist philosophy into his works.

This is just my own obsession, reading into things. However, in the Dhammapada, a collection of the Buddha's teachings, verse 61 tells us the following:

"If a person seeking a companion cannot find one who is better than or equal to him, let him resolutely go on alone."

Sanji was drowning in shame and trauma over being surrounded by his abusers again, and he tried to walk the path alone, convincing himself it was the right thing to do. To sacrifice himself.

Luffy did not fall for it, and accepted every blow, emphasizing how Sani truly hated himself, as victims of abuse regularly do.

This scene is immensely powerful for that reason.

This account has got to be my favorite one in the whole entirety of Tumblr

what's your hair routine sanji :)

Fiction is not reality.

You can enjoy things in fiction that would be awful in the real world. Like playing a murderhobo in a game! In the real world, being or supporting a murderer-thief would be pretty damn awful, while in the game it's just good fun. Same with anything else you choose to do with the pixels on the screen, like kinks that don't affect anyone real, so they're okay in fiction, but would be pretty damn bad in real life.

No one else is responsible for your online experience. They are required not to harass you, but they are not and never will be obligated to not post about ships, kinks, or tropes you dislike just to avoid you seeing them. It's up to you to blacklist words or phrases, block tags, or even block users as needed to avoid seeing content that upsets you.

No one can force you to read anything against your consent. Any content you don't like seeing can be instantly avoided by closing out of the offending post/fic.

You are not owed an online experience free of discomfort.

Nothing that happens in your imagination can ever make you a bad person. Words you write or read about fictional characters will never make you a bad person.

The claim that media consumption influences real-life behavior is intellectually dishonest and serves only to excuse the behavior of real offenders.

Fiction is a safe way to explore horrifying or confusing concepts. Therapists agree that fiction, even (or especially) about taboo topics is a good coping mechanism, especially, but not exclusively, for trauma survivors. Fiction is to adults what play therapy is to children. This doesn't stop being true if the work in question is of a sexual nature.

Sex isn't an inherently worse or better motivation than anything else. A work written to create feelings of arousal isn't dirty, shameful, or in any way less pure than works written to entertain, provoke moral questions, or for other reasons. And worth noting is that multiple purposes can exist in the same story, especially fanfiction.

You aren't entitled to an explanation for why someone reads, writes, or otherwise enjoys certain works, kinks, tropes, ships, etc.

i know that zoro looks at marco and feels indescribable.

because isn’t he just zoro’s worst nightmare, his worst case scenario, all his fears personified? the second in command, the right hand man, reduced to a living memory after his crew was killed repeatedly in front of his eyes. then in retaliation to his captain being mercilessly slaughtered, he waged a war on the murderer and he lost terribly. marco walked out of the payback war with less family than he walked in with and their fight of revenge became a scramble of retreat. marco who lost izou in wano as if the world would not allow him a second of respite from grief. marco who in present time has to sit with the knowledge that the scattered, remaining remnants and allies of the whitebeard pirates are being hunted for sport, and he can’t do anything about it. marco who never stops losing what he loves even when it's doubted that he could lose any more.

i know that zoro looks at marco and feels fear, genuine terror, at that fate. the strawhats are zoro’s world, his love for them is boundless. his love for his captain? nothing could hope to compare. zoro losing any one of his crew mates would irreversibly destroy him, and he looks at a man who has lost it all. thatch, oden, little oars jr, ace, whitebeard, izou; well: sanji, brook, franky, usopp, nami, luffy. does he feel pity? does he feel kindred? what does zoro think when he sees marco?

marco is so powerful; the whitebeard pirates were untouchable pinnacles of the pirate world. marco was the righthand man of the strongest man in the world for (over) thirty years, a man who stood shoulder to shoulder with gold roger himself. does zoro train harder knowing that or does it momentarily cause him to falter in worry about the futility of strength? marco the phoenix, first division commander of the whitebeard pirates, lives alone on a secluded island with the company of villagers and graves. he spent thirty years aboard the moby dick and it came crumbling in months. zoro must look at that, and think about how his world could slip through his fingers if he lowers his guard from threat for a moment. worry must claw at his throat as he struggles to find what to say; staring at the embodiment of strength, intelligence and kindness and who's fate is a quiet life he never asked for.

i know that zoro looks at marco and feels indescribable

soo this is what could’ve happened if Corazon had admitted that he was a marine,and Law hates the world government and everything connected with it, but he has already become very attached to Corazon
