Full circle 😭❤

Nobody, & I mean nobody does these moments better than Oda. What a privilege it is to be able to get to this point in the story. This is the beauty of a story as long as One Piece.

Thinking about how Robin subverts the "femme fatale" trope

When we first meet her in Alabasta, she is this mysterious woman who works for an underground organization working to overthrow a government and just "killed" someone. She has mysterious intentions and motives, but we know they aren't good.

Next time we see her, she's with Crocodile and just by his side doing what he wants. They do have some kind of bickering, but she is by his side. At the end of Alabasta, we know there's something about her past that is important, as the fact she is being hunted for knowing poneglyph reading is mentioned, but as she betrays even Crocodile, we're lead to think:

She is a femme fatale. A beautiful and strong woman who will do anything to get to her objective and is ruthless to get to it, no real bonds formed and no love inside her heart.

But then Skypiea comes. And yes, she is still very mysterious, intelligent and kind of ruthless, but she is also weird. And a nerd. And kind. And she starts actually bonding with the straw hats.

And then Water 7 comes and oh boy.

At first, we think she was a femme fatale, after all, because she "betrayed" the straw hats. And, still, there's something off. And, still, we want to care about her.

And her flashback comes and everything goes down.

She is not a femme fatale, at least in the traditional way. She never was. She was just a woman with a dream and fear of abandonment and trauma and a strong will to live. Robin is the opposite of a femme fatale, because her "betrayal" was because she cared so very much for the straw hats. Even more than her care for herself.

The "I want to live" shows she will never be alone again. She doesn't have to put on a facade to survive ever again. She will be loved forever and no matter what.

I've seen so many femme fatale characters and they are just so plain. They have no debt other than being baddass and hot. There is no actual character, specially in spy media. Robin broke this (And Boa Hancock too. She is amazing) and showed how to write a good female character that is both attractive and strong and also a character like the others with motivations, traumas, defects and love.

A mash up I did last year, One Piece X Scott Pilgrim!! ft. Frobin!!

All the Straw hats look great on this new art for the One Piece x Sanyo Shinkansen project:

But also my Frobin ass couldn't help but notice the pair on the Sunny:

( sorry for the bad quality, they haven't released better quality yet)

favorite luffy fic:

bring me home by citrus scented

summary: “The sky is beautiful like this, don’t you think?”. He makes a face that melts into another grin when you laugh. “You know,” you say, “when it’s so clear and blue that it looks endless. I feel like I could just float up into this sky and go anywhere I want to.”  “You can already go anywhere you want to,” Luffy says. He picks at the grass, digging blunt fingertips into the cool earth. Nami will scold him later for having dirt under his fingernails. “If there’s somewhere you want to go, then just do it.”

i saw you and suddenly the world wasn’t by WhirlyBird70

summary: Take me to sea with you! She had yelled, tears falling from her eyes but some impossible dream in her heart, and a craziness no one but a Straw Hat could match. She was a mess, bruised and tired and chained but seas –Franky had never seen a soul more brave and beautiful than hers, with such faith in miracles that were unseen and unthought of. He caught a glimpse that day, of who Nico Robin truly was.
