sometimes i think that 40zoro could maybe use specs..... like at some point of his life all the hard shit he takes in battle could put his eyesight at risk right? and it's not like he even needs it. he even does shit with his eyes closed so

whenever he's gonna read something and can't find his eyeglasses not even a second passes when the cook places then on the countertop beside him. like, quickly he doesn't even stop to hear thanks or anything. and zoro just grabs them and wears them and reads and all that shit.

no matter what sanji's doing, he always knows the sound zoro makes when he looks for his specs so he reacts and gets them for him (since somehow zoro always fucking loses track of them once he puts them off)

and that's like, everytime. it just always happens. it's almost like a natural thing they do.

sometimes zoro just grabs anything to read only to make the cook get his specs for him.

Hi!!! Hope you're having a great day :)) I enjoyed 20 year waltz so so much it was so beautifully written and illustrated and I was wondering if we'll ever know what older zoro whispered into younger zoros ear to convince him it was the real deal. Apologies if you've spoken about this before! Have a great one and stay safe <3

Hi! Thank you very much for the kind words! And you are actually the first person to ask me directly, haha.

I have decided that if/when I make a physical copy of 20 Year Waltz then I will include a little bonus scene where we find out what 40Zoro whispered to 19Zoro! But whatever you think was the sweetest/most romantic/funniest/most ridiculous is the "right" answer too.

i loved the zosan comic, it was wonderful. what kind of music do you envision for the dance between them ?

Thank you for the sweet comment and interesting question!

I have to admit I did think about this and I decided that it isn't really identifiable. It's not a real song - it's sort of making itself up as it goes along. It's definitely something light and classical, maybe only a couple of instruments, if that. No words. I think it's quite random and you couldn't say it has a 'tune' but there's still something appealing to it. I think the notes would be very soothing, somewhere between a chime and a harp. It would shift as it went on and you wouldn't really be able to predict what it was going to do next, except for the tempo, which would be consistent enough to allow you to waltz. A bit like musicians who take a recording of an animal hitting random keys and accompany it into a real song; it's intentional but unpredictable at the same time. I think 40Sanji is just going with the flow and leading 19Zoro into whatever mood the song is changing to, while 19Sanji and 40Zoro are focusing on the consistent rhythm.

I guess the best way to imagine it would be "when you're dreaming, and you know in your dream that there's music playing, and it's nice music, it gets you in the mood to dance, but it's not any song you can identify, and you won't be able to remember what it sounds like when you wake".
