Certain speculations on Crocodile's 14 year stay in Alabasta

[khaopybara]

I shouldn't have put in the agreement that P'Rak is responsible for that guy's dining. Because the one who's actually handling it isn't P'Rak, but me.

Usopp and Zoro might be my fave duo in Drum Island purely because they just don't understand how the other one works and then lose all sense of situation because of it

Exhibit A) Usopp trying to help Vivi feel better:

Zoro: He's talking shit

Exhibit B) Usopp moved by Dalton's bravery trying to do a grand gesture:

Zoro: Usopp needs my help

Exhibit C) Usopp trying to instil confidence in the villagers and also show off

Zoro: Focused on finding the others

Nami and her harem is my everything and I love how all the relationship she delivers are so different between each other

[purplebehittindifferent]

I wonder what ViVi’s plan is…

ok so i cant work on my wip rn because... in bed so im gonna wax poetic about it instead.

ive always been kinda confused with where alabasta is supposed to be set, in a way its kinda like disneys aladdin in that is just sorta mixes togeather a bunch of swana/se cultures/imagery to create a vauge idea of a 'desert country'. but considering Nefertari is an egyptian name (Nefertari Meritmut being the main example, an egyptian queen and first wife of Ramesses). im going to personally go with that idea.

with that out the way the main thing i wanna talk about... mehndi! (or henna). i personally think it would be so much cooler if the 'X' code was done in it. because the whole resolution to it is that while the X may fade, their friendship dosnt. Mehndi is an art that works of this principal, similar to rangoli. bridal henna for example is super intiquite and significant for the bride(/groom if ur progressive like that) on the mehndi celebration and shadi itself, and yet it fades away. But the specialness of the occcasion doesnt.

theres also the fact that it takes wayy longer to fade, so the drawn out process of that would be more impactful. ironicaly enough, for nami/sanji the most as they wash more often (namivivi angsttt). luffy and zoro being last.

because of all this im really obsessed with the idea of mehdi being a namivivi love languge. its such a wonderful artform to share with another person and in a romantic context tthe artistry and body worship aspects you could add are just. soo good.

also they look sick af in it

giggling look what i found

talk show leon au…celebrity leon…thoughts please miss cressie :3

"what's one of your most memorable roles" "September 30th... 1998... It's a day I'll never forget. The cop inside me died that day"

jk I think celebrity Leon would be a celebrity against his will have you see that one guy called Lelush who was stuck on that one idol survival show like that's what I imagine Leon is like as a celebrity (against his will) I also think he'd get into arguments with "fans" who criticize his every move

I do like the everyone is at least a little in love with luffy headcanon but it turns me off when it turns into straight up worship like no they all think he’s gross and deeply uncool but they love him anyway. Not despite of it but because of it you know? Like he’s the kind of guy who’ll pull you out of the deepest hole of despair and look you dead in the eye and tell you he’ll do anything to help you but he also straight up threw hands with an eight year old. It’s the duality of it

[hylianane]

When I think about the possibility of Vivi rejoining the crew, I can’t help but think about what makes her stand out when placed next to the other Strawhats.

To me her goals were always the most altruistic in the crew. She always tried to maintain peace, teaching Luffy about putting your pride aside and being patient for others. I think about the motives behind her actions, and then I compare them to the Strawhats, who are mostly incredibly selfish.

I love all the Mugiwara because of their selfish traits and not despite of them, of course. But let’s all remember the only reason they ever initially agreed to save Vivi’s life was because Nami downright forced Igaram to offer up a reward in exchange (as Navivi trash this fact makes me all the more insane about how their bond developed). And then you have others like Franky, whose introduction was him beating and robbing Usopp with zero remorse, and even our dear Sanji who once said they should just leave Smoker to die because he’s their enemy. Lovable bastards all of them, but it’s always been clear to me that Vivi is much more prone to wanting to do the right thing, instead of what she really wants or what is best. Like dropping everything to find Nami a doctor despite how desperate she was to reach Alabbasts, and being willing to run around the dessert desperately to avoid the bloodier solution, running herself and the crew ragged so she wouldn’t put others in danger by facing Crocodile head-on. And most of all, choosing to stay behind the first place.

I cant help but view her as a bit of a moral compass among the crew, a pacifistic and self-sacrificial even to her own detriment. If she’d stayed with the Strawhats, or if she were to rejoin them, in which direction would she manage to stir them…?

[potatopassenger]

This is why Usopp was against you joining the crew Sanji

Personally of the belief that live action fans who go onto animanga posts uninvited like 'I DESPERATELY NEED YOU TO KNOW THAT I THINK THE ART STYLE IS UGLY EVEN THO THIS OPINION IS IRRELEVANT TO THE POST' should be hit with a big rock. We already moved past this ten years ago, get with it or get lost. Swallow the hunger inside of you that demands everything be palatable to you. Maybe you could stand to be a little uncomfortable for a while

[hauntingblue]

Just thought about something for a second: shanks is so fucking sketchy. He warned shirohige about blackbeard and to stop ace and look at what happened. Also now he is talking to the gorusei about luffy (probably about his fruit (joyboy/nika if I assume right) bc he was the one who found it) and now imu is after him, shirahoshi (poseidon) and vivi (who knows something about the weapon mariejoa holds bc of her family's history with the place), blackbeard is still a menace but because of having two fruits or because of being a d? Both? And what does that make him a menace at ancestral weapon level (like the others)? I have so many questions. Why does shanks like luffy but still warns the gorusei about him. Why do they respect him. Why did they let him stop marineford. Why is he so powerful. Why is he a yonkou. Shanks is key to all this and I DON'T KNOW WHY

Vinian - 5★

Title : Vivi the Magnificent!

Path : Nihility

Element : Imaginary

Combat Type : Debuff/CC

Faction : Masked Fools

Introduction : The life of a traveling magician can be difficult but Vinian finds enjoyment wherever they go. If it can’t be found, it can be made, and seeing the astonished faces of the crowd is their greatest joy. There’s always a trick up their fashionable sleeve, to delight and amuse both the magician and the audience.

Combat Kit and Voice Lines under the cut

we stay silly :3

— Ability

(*Combat kit isn't 100% set in stone, still fiddling with it)

Basic ATK : Hidden Arsenal - Vinian produces several throwing knives from their coat and throws them all in quick succession at a single enemy.

Skill : Mirror Box - Imprisons an enemy in a trick box for 1 turn; when they are released, sets Disorientation on them for 2 turns - makes them auto-attack a random ally instead of using skill or ult (same as Dominated from Kafka. Could make them attack themselves instead?)

Ultimate : Grand Finale - lights go dark. A single spotlight highlights a large painted wheel to which an enemy is strapped. Vivi produces two handfuls of throwing knives and an eerie grin. deals massive damage to a single enemy and x2 damage to enemies with Disorientation

Talent : Over Here! - Vinian can evade an attack every five turns by trading places with an illusion. The turn count carries over from battle to battle. An enemy whose attack is evaded with this Talent gets the debuff Disorientation for 1 turn.

Technique : Keep Them Guessing - resets the turn count for ‘Over Here’ to 4, and randomly shuffles Vinian in the attack order for the first turn.

Possible Idle Animation: Takes off hat, inspects inside, makes a surprised :O face and after winking at the camera (no matter where camera is in relation to them), disappears into their hat which spins and settles onto the ground upside down. Pops back out after a second with a spray of flowers.

— Eidolons

Happiness is for Sharing - adds a 50% chance to trap an extra enemy in Mirror Box

Joy for Your Troubles - if Vinian is afflicted with a status effect when Over Here! triggers, trading places with the illusion causes the status effects to disappear.

Simply Dizzy with Bliss - Extended the duration of Disorientation on enemies by +1 turn.

Unwavering Euphoria - +2 to Basic and Skill

Jubilation of Victory - When Vinian defeats an enemy, they are shuffled randomly in the turn order and the count for Over Here is set to a random number between 1 and 4. This can only occur once per round.

Elation Beyond Measure - +2 to Ult and Talent

First Meeting : Gather 'round, everyone! Guaranteed to amaze and delight, Vivi the Magnificent will perform for you a show unlike any you've ever seen! Now, watch carefully—you won't want to miss a single second of this spectacle!

Greeting : You know, you really ought to keep more tidy. Why—goodness! You shouldn't be storing coins behind your ears, friend! (laughter)

Parting : Alas, our time together has come to an end, and I must bid you adieu. Don't frown so, my dear. We shall meet again, I'm sure.

About Self - [Magic Shows] : I started performing magic and sleight of hand at quite a young age, to supplement my family's earnings. I got exceedingly good at it, and suddenly I found my performance in such high demand I hardly knew what to do! Soon I had to pack up and take the show on the road, traveling the stars and delighting all sorts of people with my illusions before taking off again.

About Self - [Hat] : Ah, you're wondering how I manage to make myself disappear with only this simple hat, are you? *clicks tongue* Don't you know a magician never reveals the secrets of their tricks? But since we're such good friends, I'll give you a hint: this one has a bit of help from a higher power~

Chat - [Children] : Kiddos make the best audience, honestly. Wide-eyed and full of wonder, and they haven't learned to be skeptical of things that shouldn't be able to happen. They'll cheer and laugh without restraint, their cheeks all rosy and their little eyes a-sparkle with joy… now that's what makes everything worth it, you know?

Hobbies : I took a bit of interest in fashion along the way, out of necessity at first, but it's become a fun and soothing past-time for me. Vivi's stage outfits are all designed and hand-made by yours truly. *small gasp* You know, I'm working on a newer, flashier one for Garidon-II in a couple months. Want a sneak peek?

Annoyances : I don't get too many hecklers, but I suppose their presence is how one knows one's made it. If they get too rowdy, I can simply incorporate them into my show, and they seem to learn their lesson quickly enough.

Something to Share : Shall I teach you a little something to dazzle your friends with? Watch carefully. Practice the movements and the misdirection at the same time. That's half the work of illusion - they'll watch the flash and completely miss the real work being done.

Knowledge : I can't possibly keep track of how many different worlds I've been to. After a while they all start blurring together, and that's how I know I need a good vacation. My favorite? Ahhh... well, Epsilon has become something of a second home to me, you might say. Some of my favorite people in all the universe hang around there~

About Madame Brughel : A new friend, but a dear one. We've had the most wonderful time together dodging her terrifying suitor and enjoying all the joys the city has to offer. I'll be so heartbroken when we have to part.

About Giovanni : Now there's an interesting fellow! Seems very committed to that mask. He is, of course, also committed to the bit, to laughter and amusement like the rest of us, but one has to wonder why he keeps that thing on... sometimes I wonder if he bathes with it on, you know?

<pending more once we actually meet some people on Penacony>
