domestic life conversations
For context, I imagine Gale did warn Marzio that he might be infertile due to the orb’s unpredicted side effects, but he didn’t know for sure (based off of banter dialogue where Gale mentions the orb has made him lose hair in odd places & my personal headcanon that the orb sapped some life force away). Marzio did mention starting a family one day was important to him, so this was a worry he needed to know. Marzio is just a bit reckless and has a 8 in his INT, so his memory isn’t as sharp as he’d like to admit. Neither of them ended up being correct. Surprise!

Gang we have to talk about Manaaki and Cissy, spoilers and talk about s*xuality under the cut.
So first off, let me just talk about what I like about the Manaaki/Cissy storyline, because there’s quite a bit.
First off, can we get an A in chat for interracial relationships? I don’t know what the racial politics are like in New Zealand, but here in the US, you still can barely get away with an interracial relationship in a piece of media, and the pair usually aren’t allowed to get anything close to a happy ending.
And I really like that Cissy in particular was allowed to, like, want him. And to try and make moves on him, even if her family and friends (can you call Violet a friend?) mock her for it. I love how much she clearly likes being sexual with him.
I love that, after Manaaki comes back to the Smith house after Harry’s death, it’s Cissy who lights up his world and makes him smile. I love how much they clearly like each other’s company (as opposed to Some Other Couples on this show), and how much the show seems to approve of their being together - look at this scene in the garden! Look how they’re framed in all this beautiful light, look how Cissy’s costume complements the flowers!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Best of all, I love the way the scene in the bedroom takes a lot of trouble to let both of them make the active choice to say ‘yes, I want this.’ It’s like this perfectly choreographed little dance where at every turn one of them chooses to escalate just a little further. I love how the scene shows them as equally vulnerable, and how tenderly they handle each other. I love everything about the performances of both Freya Milner and Alex Tarrant, and I don’t care how much the intimacy coordinator was paid, she deserves to have it doubled. Tripled, even.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And now for the things I ... don’t love as much.
I really, really wish Cissy didn’t look and feel and act so very young. I’m not saying that she should’ve been invulnerable to men like Guy Featherstone, that she should’ve known everything about life, that she shouldn’t be allowed to make dumb mistakes, yada yada. In essence, my complaint is not with the writing or even the casting choices, but the directorial and/or acting ones. Freya performs a lot of Cissy’s scenes like everything is flying over her head, and I don’t know if this was a directorial request or her choice, but the end result made me feel like I was looking at a fifteen-year-old figuring out life ... which then made it viscerally uncomfortable to watch her unbutton her shirt and basically say ‘do me.’
Which makes the pregnancy arc just that much more ick. I don’t like that this show chose to have Cissy’s one sexual encounter, with her one brown paramour of all people, end up as an unwed pregnancy that permanently alters the course of her life. And sure, I guess it only takes one time, but come on show, you don’t have to take every single opportunity to be an afterschool special! And to make it just a little worse, the show doesn’t technically tell us whether or not Manaaki ever came back to at the very least co-parent the baby, and considering that Manaaki’s own father walked out, I don’t love the implications. Again, I don’t know the media conventions or racial politics of New Zealand, but here in the US, absent brown fathers are a stereotype resting on some really nasty racism.
Well, there you have it. Me and my complex feelings on Manaaki and Cissy (though I very much wish I could just like it and move on).
EDIT: all right well. One other thing I don’t love, and it’s purely a taste thing. I personally like ships where I can believe the partners can meaningfully communicate and share vulnerable parts of themselves. I do appreciate that Cissy is like Manaaki’s sunshine in the middle of a storm, but it very much feels like any mention of his myriad traumas, or even his religious background and inclinations, would be met with a blank, doe-eyed stare from her. And I know he initially finds her chatter endearing and a welcome distraction, but he seems like eventually he’d just become the kind of partner who’d tune her out, and I think she deserves rather better than that.
I dunno, their “cute contrast” energy feels more like the top layer of a pretty fundamental mismatch, and it’s not really to my taste.
(Not to mention she doesn’t seem inclined to call him on his sexism!)
EDIT 2: Maybe I'm being hypercritical but ... on like my fifth rewatch of this show I'm not sure that he likes her nearly as much as she likes him. He smiles when he's around her, which is really nice because he's at the peak of his War Trauma, and I stand by what I said about their garden scene and their bedroom scene. But the episode as a whole spends its Manaaki runtime bouncing him back and forth like a ping-pong ball. The emotional whiplash is jarring!
Its like ... he's back at the house, and Cissy surprises everyone in bright pink, and he immediately runs away. Then it's Cissy cheering him up after the photograph. Then OMG Detective Blaine is here to interrogate, plus bawling his eyes out on Mrs. Smith's shoulder. Then it's 'oh let's have a nice picnic with Cissy!' Then it's OMG the detective's back and there's more trauma! Then it's makeout time with Cissy. Then it's 'I'm going back to the war front, I don't feel like I should be around regular people,' running away from her yet again! My God.
And to make it worse, Manaaki is literally sitting in what used to be Harry's room, looking at a photo of Harry, when Cissy comes in to check on him. Again, I love that bedroom scene in a bottle, but paired with the literal frames before that and the scene they have after, it's all pretty bleak in the final count.
And like. Again with the pregnancy, but like. While I get the feeling that the people making this show hoped they were gonna get another season, they ultimately didn't. So technically we have no answer as to whether Manaaki ever fucking owned up to basically throwing Cissy away, let alone if he stepped up as a father. And considering he was still in the army, that seems unlikely to happen before the end of the war.

The Midi-chlorian essay only a few asked
(or, How Is Anakin Skywalker a walking biological horror)
Tumblr media
So I made this post and a few were actually interested, also i needed to write down all of this or I wouldn't be able to sleep.
The way I went just from "hahaha they're just mitochondria before becoming forced symbionts and losing all autonomy" to the Medical Horror that would be Anakin Skywalker .
Let me explain, going from this theory, let me tell you that the average mammal cell can have between 800 to 2000 mitochondria. In Star Wars we're told that the average living being, has 2500 midi-chlorians per cell. The difference isn't that big, so we can assume that mid-chlorians are smaller than our real-life mitochondria, and it would make sense since the mitochondria have the best possible living conditions, whereas midi-chlorians, if they're free-life bacteria (as in, they aren't forced to live in the cells of another being) it would make sense if they're just smaller, let's say, sneaky, to increment their chances at living.
So Midi-chlroains don't just produce ATP, Force sensitives have a minimum of 4000-5000 midi-chlorians per cell. That's...a big number, but not very horrific. See, the amount of mitochondria is related to how much energy the organic tissue requires. The cells of muscular tissue and neurons are the ones with the highest mitochondria count. Also the mitochondria in the neurons are mobile and flexible, because just thinking burns ATP.
We can assume that using The Force burns insane amounts of ATP, so I assume it makes sense for Force Sensitives to have big amounts of Midi-chlorians. But! The problem with this is that we're told that the Midi-chlorians are attracted to the force, not born within it. But any multicelullar organism (with a few exceptions) need the mitochondria. Mitochondria have their own ADN, and they're always inherited from the mother, so we can assume that there's two different types of midi-chlorians: The ones any normal being borns with, and the ones that get attracted because of the baby's force potential. Either that, or both the mithocondria and the midi-chlorians exist simultaneously.
Which means that Jedi (or anyone who wants to know, really) would need to take several blood tests for midi-chlorians count. Because a newborns midi-chlorian count wouldn't be the same through a babie's infancy. UNLESS...The midi-chlorian infection (yes, i'm calling it that) ocurrs already since the pregnancy, if the force is strong enough for a fetus to be a possible force sensitive in the future, then I guess the midi-chlorians would get attracted to the parent during the pregnancy as well.
WHICH BTW, IT FITS WITH PADMÉ BECOMING FORCE SENSITIVE, at least for a while, like the discarded ROTS concepts. But also, would mean, that poor Shmi became a hella strong force-sensitive person as well, at least for a while.
And it would be a biological advantage if we take this route, because it would possibly make the pregnant being stronger and with a higher supply of energy.
It also explains why the jedi would only take a single blood test when the force sensitive is just a baby, because the infection is already settled. It can also be argued, that any baby born with a fairly high amount of midi-chlorians (like the 4000 per cell count minimum) would only increase, if only slightly, as the force sensitive grows because the midi-chlorians will get attracted regardless.
There must be a limit, or more like, a balance, that the midi-chlorian and the force potential of the individual met. As in, there's just enough force within the individual for a certain number of midi-chlorian, and all of this is probably decided already during the fetus formation or very early on the baby's life.
Now, Anakin...would be an abomination. Because his cells are so full of midi-chlorians, that it's scary to think how the cells aren't exploding or downright giving malfunctions to the rest of the cellular organelles.
If we go by the route of "midi-chlorians start infecting the force sensitive host mother during pregnancy" it means there were high chances of a misscarriage or an incompatibility between Shmi and Anakin, because holy cow, Anakin is just too much.
But you know what also, it could potentially mean? That Padmé's pregnancy was a risky one, fron the start -slowly nods-. Luke and Leia's force potential was lower than Anakin's, but there's still a lot to unpack there in terms of compatibility. We are never given the exact count of midichlorian count for the twins, but let's pretend it was low enough for Padmé to not inmediatly have a miscarriage. That, and also, maybe, Padmé isn't strong in the force to manipulate it, but maybe just close enough for the pregnancy to be carried to term, let's say, her midi-chlorian count is 3900, close enough.
Something similar with Shmi, I'm taking for granted that she also had a difficult and risky pregnancy (on top of it being a pregnancy she had no agency). It becomes worse because, unlike the twins, Anakin is just...50% human. The only possible genes Anakin has are from Shmi. So he's probably...genetically, almost a clone of Shmi but with a massive infection of Midi-chlorians (yes, this implies that Anakin has homogametic sex chromosomes, aka XX, there's no other possible explanation because he literally only has Shmi's genes to work with!).
But he's Space Jesus, though,so let's pretend that the "no father genes" helped with this and allowed Anakin to grow into a...normal-ish baby despite it all.
Midi-chlorians must be extremelly small, closer to the size of a virus in this case, viruses vary on size and the way they infect the cells is by hijacking the nucleus, which then can produce more viruses instead of its own proteins. This can vary anywhere between a production of 50.000 to 100.000 viruses produced by infected cells.
Which, btw, still fits somewhat with the mitochondria theory, because mitochondrias are believed to have been from a genus of bacteria called Rickettsia, which used to be believed to be the in-between of Viruses and Bacteria due their small size and extreme endosymbiotism.
Still, we aren't even told how many midi-chlorians Anakin had, just that it was over 20.000 and thus the chart couldn't even register it. Even if we're just counting 21.000 midi-chlorians per cell, that's...a lot. Even if the relationship is symbiotic and positive in nature, that's excessive, an infected cell will usually die faster. So Anakin's cellular death must be on record time.
The life span of a cell varies highly depending of the type of cells, white cells can live about 2 days, others about 5, and then there's others that live about 6 years in average.
Forget all of that, Anakin's cells die anywhere between a few hours and a week. Which also means a super fast regeneration and healing (Hey! that tracks, that's how he didn't die even though he should have, on several ocassions).
But that's not the only problem here, the production of energy is strong with this one, too strong. Again this should make the cells burst due too much ATP because of an increase on osmotic pressure. Anakin is producing so much damn ATP (which we can assume it becomes glycogen stored in muscles and fat tissue) his need to be active and just doing something skyrockets, he might as well be the equivalent of being high on meth since birth.
The accelerated cellular formation and death, gives me the horrific idea that Anakin was probably one of these babies that are born premature, but also that he probably was bron with, idk, teeth and already lots of hair. Maybe that's also why he got so tall of all sudden, lots of cellular grow, huh.
Anakin seems to age normally by what are we given by canon. So despite it all, his life-span or aging doesn't seem to be compromised, this is probably because of how strong he is with the Force. In the sense that...he needs the midi-chlorians to handle this much power, but he also needs the force to handle with that many midi-chlorians, otherwise he would have been already born dead.
See, ageing has a lot to do with stem cells. Anakin's stem cells need to be highly prolific and potent to keep cellular division happening at such a high rate, we can infer that any force sensitive has potent stem cells, so the force must inherently affect stem cells. So Anakin's stem cells must be monstruosities in efficiency. If Anakin donated stem cells to someone else, that person would either have a strong inhumne reaction against them or they would get some of the worst cancer ever seen. Again I'm no expert, but the fact Anakin doesn't develop cancer at all as soon as he was born is already impressive. The rate in which Anakin's cells die must be ridiculous, even has a baby, he must have required tons of energy and endure lots of stress which...tracks. The fact he gets electroshocked, burned, gravely wounded or whatever every week or so, must help him to no develop some cancer, which is a bit funny.
But it would also mean he can go long periods of time without eating or resting like...a normal human. Not saying that he doesn't need it, though, but his neural activity and use of the force must be high at all times to burn out that much energy. Theoretically, the production of glycose and glycogen helps him through long periods without sleep or food so he doesn't get long-term damage, or at the very least the ability to keep going, like I said, maybe is like being on drugs all the time; there's still the need to sleep and eat, but he can push his body to keep surviving beyond what's considered normal without having long-term damage. (Don't get happy, this isn't taking into account all of the stuff that happens to him, lol)
The balance between burning too much energy and not burning enough must be insane as well. As Vader, a lot of this probably watered down because all of his energy must be saved for...you know, surviving all the torture. But as a young teen/man amist war? Oh boy.
I'm not an expert, but I'm theorizing that putting Anakin in an induced sleeep must be...fricking hard. Painkillers that work on him? fricking hard. Anesthesia? Probably the same used for big animals, he must be insane and awful for a doctor to work with! Just imagine it, he probably gets injured in such a way that would have anyone else fall unconscious, but Anakin remains awake and with tremendous amounts of adrenaline triggered by a stress response sustented by the extreme amounts of energy that the midichlorians produce.
When it happens in the central nervious system, excess of ATP can produce neuronal dysfunction. In fact, many degenerative mental illnesses have a lot to do with a malfunction of the mitochondrias. There's a corelation also with neurodivergency sometimes, like autism or ADHD. I will leave it there.
And with all of this...I also conclude that Anakin, on general basis, doesn't like sugary things and doesn't even rationalize why, but is because he has already enough glycose. Having something sugary probably gives him a headache.
God what has Star Wars done to me.

part 5/7
is it silly that this is my favorite in this series? i really enjoyed writing kaya and I wanna do it again at some point :')
[op comic masterpost]
[pg1] panel 2: Kaya: Oh! Dr. Law! I didn't expect to find you in our library.
panel 3: Law: K-Kaya-ya!
panel 4: Law: Uh. Ahem. Excuse me. I hope you don't mind me borrowing your books.
panel 5: Kaya: Oh of course not! I'm just shocked to hear we have books you don't! What are you studying?
panel 6: Law: UHHHHH
[pg2] panel 10: Kaya: Oh! Is someone on your crew pregnant? Ikkaku??
panel 11: Law (thinking): She doesn't know Ikkaku is trans. Does she not know that I am?? I just assumed Nose-ya would have mentioned it. But that makes sense. If Straw Hat didn't already know Nose-ya was trans it's not like I would have told him.
panel 12: Kaya: ...?
panel 13: Law (thinking): Fuck, I've been quiet too long. I can't throw Ikkaku under to bus. Just say something.
panel 14: Law: No. Kaya: Oh. Then why...? Law (thinking): Wait, shit
[pg3] panel 15: Law: My, uh...brother...'s...wife. Yeah, we're taking him back to Zou soon...because his wife is pregnant...and I...want...to help...?
panel 16: Kaya: Oh, how sweet! Congrats "Uncle Law" hehe. If you have any questions I could help with let me know!! I specialized in traumatic injury, but I did deliver a few babies in Syrup Village! On smaller islands like that you wear a lot of hats.
panel 17: Law: And you've...been pregnant. Kaya: Well, yeah, but I wasn't my own doctor! Could you imagine if I had tried to deliver the twins myself? Even a doctor needs a doctor, you know that.
panel 18: Law: ...right.
panel 19: Law: ...what...what was it like?
panel 20: Kaya: Oh, my pregnant patients were actually pretty fun! I suppose it makes sense that as a pirate ship doctor you wouldn't have had to know obstetrics. But it was always so lovely to hand a parent their--
[pg4] panel 21: Kaya: ...newborn...baby...?
panel 23: Kaya: ...I'm sorry, Dr. Law. If there's context I need you'll have to give it to me. I'm not good at guessing.
panel 24: Law: What do you mean, I just gave you context. Kaya: With all due respect, you're full crying. It's a new sight for me!
panel 25: Kaya: You can tell me what's going on! I'm told I'm a very good listener
panel 26: Law: ...You Straw Hats sure are a pain Kaya: Sorry, hehe
panel 28: Law: ...I...ahem...so number one, if you didn't know...I'm...I'm trans.
panel 29: Law: But not like your husband. He got the works from Ivankov-ya...I never felt the need to seek that out.
[pg5] panel 30: Kaya: ...I see
panel 31: Kaya: How far along are you? Law: ..12 weeks, give or take. Kaya: Well, I've provided obstetric care of all kinds. So whatever questions you're researching here...why don't you ask me instead of being your own doctor?
panel 32: Law: ...Same question. What was it like?
panel 33: Kaya: Being pregnant was a horror show!
panel 34: Law: A glowing review. Kaya: Oh, sorry! I can lie if you'd prefer!
panel 35: Kaya: I was just so sick my first trimester! Law (speaking over her): KAYA-YA I THOUGHT I WAS DYING FOR TWO WEEKS WHEN WILL IT STOP I CAN ONLY EAT RICE.
panel 36: Kaya: It's different for everyone. By the end it wasn't quite so bad for me, though. And I love my kids so much. They were such cute newborns!! So I was alright being uncomfortable for awhile. Because that's what we wanted, you know?
panel 37: Kaya (off screen): What do you and Luffy want, Dr. Law?
[pg6] panel 38: Law: ...We haven't decided yet. We're giving it to the end of the week. I'm trying to think about it rationally. But I just keep getting emotional any time I talk about it. It's strange.
panel 39: Kaya: An emotional decision and a bad decision aren't inherently synonymous, you know.
panel 40: Law: ...your bedside manner is impeccable, Dr. Kaya-ya. Kaya: Well, thank you! Next time let's meet in the infirmary, mine or yours.
panel 41: Kaya: I'll be your doctor through this, okay?
panel 42: Law: ...Okay...Thank you. Kaya: Of course!

I got bored and made a future Moomin valley AU and gave them all little happy families
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So my Moomin valley fixation came back after like 5 whole years, and originally these were just meant to be one off little ship kid concepts but I grew attached to them and the idea of it and eventually it kinda evolved into a next generation AU in the span of like 3 days
 Hope I’m not too late to the party chat

I’ve been thinking up a LOT about this AU, but I’ll just give a basic run down rlly fast:
Lumi and Linna are best friends and basically take over the roles of snufkin and moomin, who are now lumis parents, the AU is very slice of life and follows a lot of the main lessons from the original moomin shows (Especially a veeeerrryyy familiar dilemma about a friend feeling sad over one choosing to leave for the winter)
Lumi is similar to Snufkin where she has a big urge to get away from social situations and be on her own, and can really only spend prolonged amount of time with her parents (or Linna in certain situations). Despite looking almost exactly like snufkin, she acts a lot like Joxter and it’s no suprise the two are actually very close especially considering their equal love for sleeping and hating authority. Despite her love for sleeping and her indifference to the idea of hibernation, ever since Lumi was able to choose she’s always chose to go south with Snufkin. Even if this makes Linna sad.
Linna is much more social than Lumi, and doesn’t mind speaking her mind and having fun with others. She takes after Snorkmaiden with her love for Romance, and often fantasizes about her “Prince Charming.” Linna, unlike Lumi, has hibernated for all her life, even after she was given the option to hibernate or not, she often wishes that Lumi would stay for the winter, but Lumi is insistent on traveling, but the two are always happy to meet again during the spring and go on their normal adventures. She usually acts as the “pact leader” and is often the one leading the games and day plans, but Lumi helps take charge when they are going on adventures as she is best at it.
There’s a couple side characters that are turned into more important roles, like for example in this AU the joxter is actually a reoccurring character !! (Let’s just pretend that Joxter and Snufkin met & rekindle their relationship and so now Joxter gets to be a silly grandfather!!)
That’s pretty much the basic rundown, and yes I did choose to ship snorkmaiden and Ninny, it was last minute but I thought it’d be actually rlly cute unironically.
Anyways Here’s some extra doodles I made cause I wanted to attempt to replicate Tove’s doodling style to finish off this post, so enjoy these!! And thank you for reading!!

distracting myself from my essay by coming on here to talk about monster!141 and oviposition.
walk with me for a minute. the guys trusting you with these extensions of themselves, parts and pieces snuggled inside you. and they know it’s such a big thing, carrying their brood, your body hardly able to handle them. yet you take it with pride, promising to take good care of them, the evidence of their affections nestled deep in your tummy.

me when. i have baby daddy oliver on the mind 😔
ive made posts abt this before but i do think oliver is. such a good dad LMAO
you think he's not going to be like. at all. you don't even think he's going to want to keep the baby - given all the stuff you know about him. but you have a mutual good connection. the casual sex is good casual sex, and he's more respectful to you in bed than any other boyfriends u ever have
u tell him like. mostly out of obligation. and honestly it's not the first time oliver has been in that kind of situation. but you know, he's actually not against having a kid. and the thought of you having his baby... he doesn't hate that. maybe part of that is the weird lingering romantic tension you've always had, but the other half is just him thinking you'd be a great mom and good co-parents. and you're already here and he has the funds. he can make the time.
he promises he'll make the time. so you have a kid with plans of coparenting. and it works really well. you have a daughter and oliver loves her to death. she's smart and vibrant and thinks he daddy is super cool.
and oliver doesn't really change in his personal life completely but he's . such a good dad. even with his busy schedule he makes so much time for your little girl. you naturally spend more time together as a result. it wasn't like you hated each other before - but there's a signifcant difference in how warm he is. he's not trying as hard to get in your pants and he's oddly... oddly tender. it's unusual for you you know... it's weird to see him like that. he's really charismatic when he's not being a sleazebag and you find yourself liking his company
he wins u over in coparenting. he's less of a babydad at some point and more just father of your child. he grows into husband material when a kid is involved way faster than in other situations

part 4/7
the lil law bein held by luffy is v important to me
[op comic masterpost]
[pg1] Panel 1: Law: ...
Panel 2: Law: ...Bepo knows. Luffy: Penguin and Shachi too I assume? Law: They better not. I swore Bepo to secrecy. He only knows cuz he's the one who figured it out. Luffy: Got it
Panel 3: Luffy: So you wanna start with the pros or cons? Law: Pfft, you know. Luffy: Okay. I don't think it would make you feel very good. Law: I'm already sick all the damn time. Luffy: You know what I mean Law [talking over Luffy]: I know what you mean.
Panel 4: Luffy: We sail on different ships Law: I don't know obstetrics Luffy: My family doesn't have a great dad track record Law: Most of my crew doesn't know that I'm trans, so I'd have to come out Law: We're pirates Luffy: You can't count that, there's already kids on my ship Law: Fine Law: We can't make our crews stay together just because we want to. Law: People might think my crew is under yours and that would not go well. Luffy: So if we wanted to stay together we'd probably have to leave for awhile like Usopp did. Law: What if she's got white lead disease?
Panel 5: Luffy: You already cured tha-- wait did you say she? Law: Oops. Luffy: Oops? Why oops? Law: Listen, I needed all of the available information. Luffy: Any more to share? Law: Um. It's been about 12 weeks. Luffy: Since what? Law: Okay nevermind I have no more information that will mean anything to you.
Panel 6: Luffy: ...Why does that make it different? Law: ...I don't know, but it happened to me too. Not that it means it's a girl. But assigning a pronoun...I think I've gone soft. Wouldn't have meant anything a decade ago.
[pg2] Panel 7: Luffy: Me too. I think this'll be easier if we just say 'it.' Law: You're right. But I tried. And even when I do, when I close my eyes I just see this kid that looks like you.
Panel 8: Luffy & Law: ...
Panel 9: Luffy: Fuck Law: I know Luffy: You can't just say shit like that. Law: I'm sorry.
Panel 10: Luffy: Well now we know it's an option. We could always plan for it later. Law: But it also could be a fluke. Honestly with all the shit I do to my body it's a wonder she made it so far without me knowing. Luffy: It's cuz she's mine.
Panel 11: Law: Fuck Luffy: That was supposed to be an inside thought Law: You don't have those. This is a terrible idea. Luffy: I agree Law: So we agree we shouldn't do this.
Panel 12: Law & Luffy: ...
[pg3] Panel 13: Luffy: Everyone expects us to be docked here for a week. So I don't think we have to decide right now.
Panel 14: Law: Yeah. Yeah good point. Law: And if I can just use the Sunny's library...I'm sure Kaya's got some books in there that would...offer perspective.
Panel 15: Luffy: And we can keep thinking of pros and cons!

Wait wait so
.. uh. How was Kirby even born???
Did Leo just eventually lay an egg? Was Kirby the mind palace puppet baby just suddenly there?? I know it’s super morbid to wonder but now I can’t STOP wondering.
okay, so there's this biological thing that happens to female turtles in where they lay a clutch of unfertilized eggs. kind of like a period
Leo does that (trans Leo whooooooo!!!), has done it since he hit puberty, so he doesn't freak out at all
Post-Prime!Leo, however, does freak out because he has it in his head that, somehow, Prime managed to rewire his body so that the eggs are fertile. he freaks out, has a panic attack over it, is inconsolable about it, and it takes a while for him to calm down. everyone is telling him that no, that didn't happen, that it's just something he imagined, Prime is gone and can't do anything to him anymore...
and just when Leo is on the precipice of calming down and accepting that it was all in his head, out comes Donnie. holding one little egg
"Congratulations," is all he says

Gullveig’s ghost (and Loki)
Little concept I did of Gullveig’s ghost and Loki(Post eating the heart) based off my own headcanons
Cw for: death, implied murder and cannibalism,depressing topics,and mentions of pregnancy (nothing is shown though)
Tumblr media
Her ghost design basically reflects how she died. She always crying gold too and doesn’t speak to those who can see her just looks at them sadly. Speaking of those who can see her, only three people can Freyja, Loki, then later Kol.
Freyja was always able to see Gullveig’s ghost walking her around her hall after she passed. She even tried to talk to Gullveig a few times to no avail.
Loki was only able to see Gullveig’s ghost after they ate her heart. To where Gullveig began to basically start haunting her. Loki wasn't a fan of that, to say the least.
Kol, being Gullveig’s child, started to see her ghost at the age of 5 when Odin first tried to take her away (and failed). For Kol, whenever Gullveig shows up, it serves as a warning that Kol is possibly in danger.
Tumblr media
Now onto Loki
Besides the unexpected baby , Loki suffered other side effects from eating Gullveig’s heart. Like Freyja, Loki begins to cry gold (not permanently, though) and began to see Gullveig’s ghost everywhere too. Gullveig’s magic also messed with Loki’s own magic to the point where it became hard to control it.
While Loki cherishes and adores Kol. He definitely learned the consequences of eating something he definitely shouldn’t have. Doesn't stop him from committing more mischief, though. This is Loki were talking about talking about afterall >:)
