“whatever the fuck these two characters had going on” is a vastly underrated character dynamic

I'm especially looking to follow my fellow One Piece artists and Cosplayers so I'm following everyone back who follows me.

Additionally, you can leave your handles in the comments but I'd really love more moots.

Wish that I could find the words to say

To show you how you paved the way

A million days is not enough

A billion rays within your sun

Standing in your window, middle of December

Times change, but I'll always remember

I don't know where I'd be without you

One more summer, one more winter

I wanna spend life with you

I don't know where I'd be without you

The Moon God Buggy AU cover art is finally done holy SHIT.

I don't know how I pulled it off, but I managed to get the "Sistine Chapel" look I was going for too. I never fucking wanna have to do it again tho.

Alright, now that I've cleansed my rotting, stress soaked brain and the grieving period has moved into its anger stage, it's time to get back to commissions.

I think coloring some submissive men sucking fingers will do my soul good rn.

the concept and idea of “you can always start trying to be a better person” is extremely important to me both in media and irl and i continue to be deeply deeply disturbed by the trend on this site pushing that these ideas in media are bad writing or even morally reprehensible

because theyd rather someone stay terrible or just straight up die than become a better person 

from a compassionate point of view it’s deeply distressing and from a pragmatic point of view it’s outright frustrating

it’s fucked up.

There's no need to assume. This is canon.

Lucci was a fully trained and made an agent at age 13. He was absolutely, 100% canonly a child soldier. Kaku was also only 18 when they went on a very high ranking undercover mission. Meaning he has been training also since childhood.

Lucci and Kaku both we know 100% were trained from a young age and thus groomed into their current state of mind.

Listen, guys. I get it. I really do.

I understand how it's very easy to hate Lucci and blame him for continuing his behavior two years post being beaten by Luffy in Enies Lobby, but like...

Can we have a SINGLE second of critical thinking here - Just a shred, like, a sliver of reading comprehension to focus on the fact that Lucci was a little baby child soldier molded and manipulated from an extremely young age to be a literal fucking human weapon.

I mean, he would be a pigeon breeder if he wasn't a CP9 agent. He would want to take care of small, fragile animals who were literally abandoned by people for the crime of no longer being useful to them

Yeah, yeah...

"He's an adult now and should know what he's doing is wrong"...

For people who use 'grooming' as a buzzword so much, I'm really gonna need you to understand so much more about how conditioning works.

Anytime, man. You're one of my besties as far as I'm concerned.

I'm not gonna be active for a while✌🏻 dealing with some heavy imposter syndrome and whatever the fuck else.

[captainx-camino]

I feel this struggle in my soul.

If it's any consolation at all, imposter syndrome is a surefire sign that you're not only improving but that you've already grown in something.

Imposter syndrome means you know enough now about something to know and acknowledge what you don't know.

Take your time. Get your thoughts together and come back when you're ready.

We'll be excited to see what you have to share with us either way. ❤️

Please don't go ..

I always look forward to your art ..

I know. I just don't feel in place at the moment. It's nobody's fault but my own. I'm struggling real fuckin bad, and if I try to make art, it won't come out the way I know it should. I'm sorry.

I'm still gonna update my fic, but I need a break from art for a while. I've hated my last few works if I'm being honest, and it's starting to get to me in ways that I don't like.

[captainx-camino]

Take care of yourself, man.

I'm always available if you just wanna chat.

I'm not gonna be active for a while✌🏻 dealing with some heavy imposter syndrome and whatever the fuck else.

[captainx-camino]

writer’s block isn’t real, it’s just your characters deciding to go on strike because they’re mad about how you’ve been treating them

"I DoN't GiVe A fUcK"

Enough of one to make an unprompted announcement from an empty burner account, my dude.

I will never understand outputting so much energy into being a hater lmao

Y'all think you share your misery but I'm high on someone else's beautiful art already this morning and nothing can ruin my morning

"Hey. Hey, talk to me. What happened? Buggy? Buggy!?"
