REVIEW:

ZAIN (Chosen Few 3) by Samantha Wilde at The Reading Cafe:

' The premise is dramatic and dark; the romance is seductive'

Chosen Few

God loves the good old USA, congrats to one and all

We've traveled to the top, now they're ready for our fall

We've reached new heights and seen the sights

Smell the roses while we can

For another star has fallen in America

For a democracy to work we gotta see it from both sides

Stop pointing fingers, shut your mouth and compromise

These last ten long months our division really grew

When the guy in charge said, "It's just another flu"

Let's get our shit together, not make things such a fuss

We can't behave like nitwits, the world is watching us

No more silly temper tantrums, let's all just behave

Remember who we are, we're the home of the brave

God loves the good old USA, congrats to one and all

We've traveled to the top, now they're ready for our fall

We've reached new heights and seen the sights

Smell the roses while we can

For another star has fallen in America

We used to be the heroes, today we are the trash

They took all our goodwill and they shoved it up our ass

The welcome has worn out for the red, white and blue

If we don't smarten up they're gonna tell us all to screw

But can you really blame 'em all for thinking that we suck?

With our antics and behavior, the people are fed up

So let's find a common ground on which we can agree

Congress, Senate, White House and Mike The Legend Lee

God loves the good old USA, congrats to one and all

We've traveled to the top, now they're ready for our fall

We've reached new heights and seen the sights

Smell the roses while we can

For another star has fallen in America

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na

Hey, hey, hey, goodbye

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na

Hey, hey, hey, goodbye

Everyone's talking louder to make sure that they are heard

It's just like when mom yelled at us, we didn't catch a word

Restraint of pen and tongue, a lost thought of times gone by

Today you think it then you tweet it

In an outburst on the fly

God loves the good old USA, congrats to one and all

We've traveled to the top, now they're ready for our fall

We've reached new heights and seen the sights

Smell the roses while we can

For another star has fallen in America

I've always been curious to know this about the people around me. Most people have been in severe pain, but in my experience few have had what they would say is their 10/10 experience. I guess it's just something I find fascinating, as I had my 10/10 experience quite young and I sometimes forget that not everyone has. In my opinion it changes your relationship with pain and how you engage with it afterwards. If you answered yes, feel free to elaborate on your circumstances in the tags!

Okay so with the line "the olive tree where we first met" we have two equal hilarious options.

When penelope was sassily like oh I'll marry you if you make a living bed out of this tree right here! Cue penelope stumbling over odysseus very very carefully digging up the tree "because how else is he going to get it to itacha we can't have a wedding bed out in the open in sparta duh"

Or

2. Penelope, knowing that Helen's suitors would soon be arriving to take over her home for a while. Snuck out and went on her own wacky shenanigan filled journey where she scoped out all the major players. Odysseus caught her spying in an olive tree. And when she got back she told Helen she had dibs on the cutie from itacha.

Downtime with the disaster lineage

The silly thing about associating Deadpool and Wolverine with Patroclus and Achilles is that if the Greek gays had regeneration and nigh-immortality, they wouldn't have reached peak tragedy

You do get the sense that the fallout of Roger's death and the Roger pirates disbanding not so much traumatized Buggy and Shanks indifferent ways but instead generated such drastically different reactions to the trauma.

While the trauma of everything seemed to push Shanks into the future, always constantly waiting for something, putting plans on hold and then later in place, for this great moment, this great coming that he sees on the Horizon. For Buggy it rooted him firmly in the past keeping him trapped in this grief masquerading as anger.

While Roger's death forced Shanks to grow up fast, it kind of arrested Buggy's development keeping him stuck in those same feelings, rooted int that same place.

You get the sense that Buggy's whole east blue schtick is just one long overdue rebellious phase one big fuck you to Roger and his ideals. He's rebelling against Roger's principles. One of their rules was don't steal from innocent people and Buggy was keeping a whole town in poverty. If Roger and Luffy's pirating styles are diametrically opposed to someone like Blackbeard, who might be the most literal pirate in the entire series, then buggy is the parody of that Blackbeard piratism. He is playing up cruelty, being the most piratey pirate possible, hell he's literally a clown on a stage. It's all a show! It's his own special way of trying to "get back at Roger" of trying to discard everything Roger taught him for this overacted, over exaggerated clownish cruelty. Mentally he never left that execution square. He is still 15, alone and scared.

Hell he literally never left either, while I'm pretty sure Shanks' booked it out of the east blue as fast as he could, Buggy never lef, might have never left, if not for Luffy. It's part of why Luffy bothers him so much, he's just like Roger everything that Buggy is trying hard to forget and here comes this kid, whose never even met the Captain but is wearing his hat, shoving it right back in his face.

It makes sense that he never leaves the east blue till Luffy literally forces him out of it (fucking with Luffy gets him captured and imprisoned) and it makes sense that it's Luffy that literally breaks him out of prison, literally sets him free, and on the path to greatness that maybe he was always meant to achieve (even if he trips his way into it). This boy that is tragically so much like his old captain but so beautifully unabashedly himself, is what Buggy needs to start letting go off the past, to start trying to move forward.

Maybe that's why Buggy, at what could arguably be described as his lowest moment, gets the strength to free himself from his own self imprisonment, realizing that even back then he was locking himself away and pinning his own dreams on Shanks. And, maybe for the first time ever, Buggy really own his dream. He declares to his tormentors and his crew and the entire world that; actually He wants to find the one piece, him, as captain of his own crew, this crew, not just a part of someone else's. That's his dream and he's willing to turn the world upside down to do it.
