At this point, any book I read makes me think of Usopp. And this time it results in another Water 7 point I want to make

I understand that One Piece is a shonen series, so certain themes are expected. But when I reflect on Usopp's struggles during Water 7, it bothers me how people still defend Zoro’s words as if they were absolute. Zoro’s beliefs weren’t entirely safe or right. Water 7 touched heavily on themes of manhood, which many Usopp fans have pointed out, especially regarding his relationship with Franky. But when you dig deeper, Usopp deserves more grace and consideration.

Despite what Sanji and Franky did for him, it wasn’t enough. Usopp didn’t have a father figure to help him build the self-confidence every boy—or anyone—needs. Sons often get their self-confidence from their fathers, and without that, Usopp was left to suppress his emotions and internalize his pain. So when people in the fandom argue that Usopp was wrong and shouldn’t have let his “pride” get in the way, it feels unfair. It goes back to the issue of suppressed emotions, which is incredibly damaging without a positive outlet—a skill Usopp was never taught or able to explore.

I also think Usopp might’ve learned the wrong lesson from Water 7, especially when the fandom considers what was “right” as actually being morally wrong. I came across someone’s interpretation of Usopp’s fight with Luffy, and while I didn’t agree with most of their negativity, I did see their point about the “might is always right” mentality that Zoro seemed to push. This mentality, according to the commenter, stripped Usopp of the little confidence he had left by Water 7, along with the autonomy and moral compass that were truly his own, even if they were chaotic and unconventional.

So it really bothers me when people view Usopp’s stance as disloyalty. In reality, it showed that he wasn’t willing to blindly follow others—he believed everyone deserved an explanation, including himself. In that light, Usopp’s apology after Enies Lobby feels underserved because it doesn’t validate the struggles he went through or extend beyond the surface-level support he received before.

thinking abt an au where clarisse goes on the quest w/ percy bc of the whole "you will be betrayed by one who calls you friend" (he picks annabeth and clarisse bc he doesn't think he'd ever be friends with either of them) and has to confront her father when she finds out he stole the master bolt. hm.

my hobby is going through tumblr and threads and screenshotting the shit out of f1 posts and memes i’m giggling kicking my feet over and then sending them all to my friend whose only knowledge of f1 is from what i tell her and the reels i ruined her fyp with

[smokewars]

no bc now im thinking of how both hokma and roland (tried to) have faith in angela choosing the right choice in the end and to not be selfish. how many opportunities both of them gave her and hokma stuck to his hope while roland faltered and felt like he couldn't have faith in her anymore. how angela both depends on hokma, who she sees as a fatherly figure, and roland, who she sees as her first ever friend. how she asks for advice from both of them and turns to them for guidance. how they both act as the first person she's ever trusted (benjamin being the first person she ever did so with and roland being the first person who wasn't a part of l corp)

Fuck all of y'all in Florida how dare you misrepresent my liberal king that man loves women (not in that way) and he would not STAND for this smh

[corroded-coffin]

mean girls references in 2023 are mostly eyeroll worthy IMO but whatever. this is how dave's greyhound ride went when he got kicked out of metallica right. 100% historical accuracy and a valuable use of my time that wasn't mostly me wanting to draw beautiful boys with beautiful hair right.

anyway, i made a sideblog for my metal fanboying @runalongtherainbow so that i'm not spamming y'all because i feel ANNOYING when i LIKE THINGS!!!!!

Grace FUMBLED Ryan! BAD parenting to preach respect and then act contrarily (ie saying she wants him to feel safe, then not allowing him any autonomy). She should've let him leave and come back... or at least explained why she didn't want him to leave before deciding (ex: 'Homelander will kidnap you', etc). She needed to let him make the decision for himself... agh. AAAAA.

And now Butcher's no use because he's committed to being evil and can't offer ANYTHING good to Ryan!!! He was so right, they NEEDED to give Ryan more space... I know the external pressures seemed impossible, but dammit, Grace, this was no way to beat the odds!

(this is about The Boys season four)
