Im not good at editing and style replication but i tried my best...These are based on my ideas and headcanons.

[hermitcraftx]

just got a dm abt one of my posts and y'all please don't try and show the hermits (or any minecraft youtuber or content creator for that matter) my posts, i'm uncomfortable with it and don't want any of my posts shown to a cc. if they stumble upon it naturally that's unfortunate but i can live with it since i do maintag a lot (something i REALLY need to stop doing tbh i already know i need to make a tagging system just for my blog that wont clog results) but going out of ur way to show a cc is entirely different and something i am not comfortable with.

no hate to the person at all but even if i wasn't a little silly and weird with it sometimes i wouldn't be comfortable with it, i want my blog to be a purely fandom only space with none of the creators involved <3 please respect this

I haven't posted about Avatar in a *hot* minute, but, I have been infected with the hyperfixation again and the incessant urge to just hit Spider with the projection/trauma stick is driving me feral.

I just want to give him a shit ton of issues man. I want to make my sweet baby boy baby miserable. I love him so I have to make his life as hard as possible.

like making him absolutely unwell and giving him a list of chronic illness/disabilities (on top of the ones he already has from being human on Pandora) wouldn't fix me, but it'd do something that'd make my brain feel a little less implode-y 🤷🏻

Edit: small disclaimer for anyone who doesn't know me, I am disabled, hence why I said projection, I just feel like I should mention that, or the tone of this post feels a little uncomfy

"Uhhh violence never the answer it's childish to start fights" it's also childish to refuse any and all criticism and expect everyone around you to bend over backwards to accommodate your every fucking whim and never do the same in return. If YOU make YOURSELF impossible to have a mature conversation with, people are going to stop trying.

I just read an article which talked about important life skills just now, and it actually inspired me to write this piece because my story perfectly illustrates something. Now, I've already tried to stress in my responses to that writer who wanted to write an action piece about an autistic John Wick character last year about how people with autism struggle more in a life or death situation and it's not realistic. I've also called out the autistic community for their demonizing thoughts about the neurotypical community. Let me tell you a story about a specific program in the Netherlands and Belgium that teaches kids an important life skill which I struggled with as a kid because I was disabled and how learning how to be like neurotypicals actually DOES improve our lives. As a kid I struggled with things requiring motor skills to the point I had to take physio therapy classes for basic P.E things like throwing and catching a ball. With the way some people in the autistic community make trying to be taught anything regarding our disability to be like neurotypicals a bad thing, I should have just embraced that I was incredibly bad at these things. Not only is that dumb, but it literally was my hurdle in that life skill class. You see, in the Netherlands and Belgium, because we have a lot of water and are susceptible to floods, we have swimming classes, and these don't just teach you forms of swimming. Nope. These swimming classes have three levels, with a certificate and an exam class for each. A. This level teaches you basic swimming skills, the forms, how to stay afloat, how to swim with your clothes on and how to dive a couple of meters. The three last things I mentioned, are all to prepare a kid what to do if the area got flooded. B. This is mostly the same as your A level, but the meter distance for diving is way bigger. A level basically teaches you how to get out of a building if you are near the exit and level B prepares you how to get out if you are nowhere near an exit and need to hold your breath way longer. Ever heard of those swimmers who give shows dressed up as a mermaid? That's Level B stuff over here. C. This is the most advanced of all the levels and teaches you basic lifeguarding skills so you can also save other people and not just yourself. In the Netherlands, they have become slightly less accesible and funded because the last big flood was in the 50s. However, Dutch parents typically still have at least a certificate of an A level and still push their kids to take swimming classes. It's because of Dutch parents still valueing swimming classes, that there are actually higher percentages of immigrants drowning during the summer season opposed to ethnic Dutch. Because they and their kids don't think it's a big deal to pursue a swimming certificate whilst the average Dutch parents had the danger of water drilled into their skulls when they were kids and that swimming is a primary life skill which they in turn teach to their kids. The Dutch southern small town I grew up in, was actually near the area of the big flood in the 50s and with my maternal family being from that area, obviously they thought it was highly important for me to at least graduate from A level. I literally spent more then twice as long as the other kids getting my A level because I am disabled. But in the end, I did accomplished and graduated from A level classes when I was 8 years old.

My mother was the only parent attending our swimming exams that actually created a banner, especially for me. She was so proud of me finally getting my A level. I actually get a smile on my face whilst typing this because of how happy and proud I was too. If it wasn't growing up in a ghetto that taught me that a disabled person struggles more in life vs death situations, then swimming class certainly did. Disabilities aren't superpowers even if it makes us better at certain things. They create more danger for us in these types of situations, and I'll never stop being proud of reaching my A level. Toxic positivity and the autistic bums who see any attempt of improving their disability as 'an ableist society trying to force us to fall in line' can kiss my ass.

i love playing wcue and seeing people who have never read a warrior cats book in their lives say stuff "hey no fighting (as in, in character fighting), this is a kids game" or "the clan rps are so boring and i hate them. lets do a magic school or zodiac rp instead!!!!!!"

i know the game has died out and actual wc fans dont play it anymore but god its so funny but so infuriating at the same time to see stuff like this like . i dont agree with the argument of "oh they just think its a normal cat rp game!!!" bc like. the zodiac roleplays, the magic school, the royalty rp, all of those have ppl who basically just act like . people. the pl in the royalty rp are liek "grabs broom and sweeps", magic school rpers are like "grabs pencil and writes" and even jus other non clan cat rps are like "wipes eyes with hands, gets dressed, gets out of bed, etc etc" like dude. this is warrior cats roleplay. there are plenty of other roleplay games on roblox to play (COUGH COUGH ROYALE HIGH IS RIGHT FUCKING THERE COUGH COUGH) but yet. here we are.

The Pirate King of the North

Main Themes: Villain Sanji, Alternate Universe, Zosan Ship

AU where Straw Hat Pirates meet old Sanji from a reality where Reiju didn't have emotions.

Warning: Long post ahead and some One Piece spoilers. Contains strong language.

Part 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9

Young Zoro hates the fucker but those scars and piercings are doing a number to his soul.

Old Sanji's story goes like this:

He didn't experience compassion from anyone else aside from his mother, who--you know what happened.

Judge kept him locked away until he was 13. He had him released when he was deemed too broken to do anything, and he was apparently a waste of space. As far as the world was concerned, he was already dead. He gets left behind at some random pirate town in the North.

His swirly brows were recognized by the pirates who took him in--only for him to be enslaved because people would pay a lot to have their way with royalty.

He picked up some skills from the other slaves and became cunning af--because he had to be.

At 17 he started a revolt against the slaver pirates, effectively taking over as their new pirate captain.

He became the feared "Mr. Prince" and his words are as sharp as his bite.

He's underweight because he doesn't give two shits about good food.

"The All Blue? It's nothing but an old fishwive's tale," he says.

He used his cunning mind and new pirate crew to hunt down and kill his own father from the shadows.

He enslaved his own siblings and becomes the new ruler of Germa Kingdom. Over the years, he used them for warfare and expanded the territory of the North.

His heart is a bottomless pit for power and control.

He had a fling or two or several with is closely allied with Doflamingo because god damn they're both mad like that. The alliance eventually lead to direct connections with Celestial Dragons.

Sanji gains more power and becomes the notorious "Pirate King of the North"

Meanwhile at the other side of the world, Luffy didn't make it as far as he could have without a good cook.

Luffy would have recruited one from Baratie but the restaurant was absolutely destroyed before the smaller Straw Hat crew could make a difference. Some of the staff didn't make it.

Zoro left the crew when it fell apart at some point.

Due to Zoro's reputation and bounty that he had occurred during his limited time with Luffy, he was offered a position as a Warlord, ultimately taking over the late Jinbe's old role. He accepted and served for several years before he was assigned a job that he didn't know would be the most challenging one yet.

The Celestial Dragons didn't like the fact that Sanji had started to have more worldly control over their own, so Zoro was quietly assigned to hunt down the great Pirate King of the North. Zoro accepted because he felt that he needed more experience before he could take on Mihawk again.

Zoro quickly realised that this mission is not a walk in the park.

Sanji loves toying with the Demon Warlord so he insists on taking him on by himself.

It becomes an endless game of cat and mouse. Sometimes Sanji chases and sometimes he runs, sometimes he wins and sometimes he loses.

They're at each others' throats everywhere in the world. Any person, city or being of any kind that gets in the way usually gets torn apart in the chaos. The hunt goes on for a lifetime. They're currently in their 40's.

Zoro severs Sanji's left arm during one huge fight.

Because of this, Sanji relentlessly tries to get Zoro to marry him to use him in so many ways he can think of--both as an asset and under the sheets--oh the things that he wants the swordsman to do and beg for.

Sanji likes to refer to the tiniest scar on his lip as "Zoro's love bite"

He was about to get a nice fresh one on his chest when some fuckers teleported him away.

Hearing old Sanji's backstory was a bit much. It was young Zoro's turn to have a nosebleed that day.

----------

Oh yes I had fun drawing old silver fox, damaged Sanji. I wish I have the time to colour it up. I've also been very much into reading AU stories, especially soul brand ones. Keep them coming, you beautiful people.

Edit: Woo! I finally decided to make my own AO3 account. It's about time. Link here for the story: https://archiveofourown.org/works/60686077
