Crocodile is the worlds worst hypocrite, and I say this with love. Y'all need to talk abt his hypocrisy more bc its honestly one of the most interesting parts of his character to me. He scorns Luffy for his idealism, calling it naïvety and that he has seen hundreds of pirates like him live and die on these seas, yet his own goals of "utopia" is just another form of idealism, he looks down upon Buggy for wanting to be king of the pirates, yet his own dream was once (or perhaps even currently) to also be king of the pirates, he says he "doesn't team up with anybody", yet he beckons Mihawk to join him in heading the crossguild 2 years later, do you see what I'm getting at here.

I honestly think more fanworks need to lean into Crocodile's hypocrisy because it has some good potential I say.

"Katniss did so little for Peeta"

What the hell!!!

She wanted die for him! Kill for him! Accepted be the Mockingjay to save him!

When he came back brainwashed and hating her, the girl was literally suicidal! And when he got better, a single conversation with him made her get out of her depressive state and start living again!

How this is little?!!!

You see what no one else does,

You feel what I presently feel,

You have tasted the sadness,

You seek to heal my pain,

You touch my soul with such grace,

You show me what love truly is,

You astonish me with your heart,

You introduced me to your deepest thoughts,

You have taken my hand,

Saving me from going in deeper...

They grew up on Alderaan together au! They’re at a ball of sorts idk 🤷‍♀️

Hi! Sorry for notification spamming you but wanted to tell you that your TROD tags made me lol, I LOVE your art so much and I’m interested in your AU too. Anyway, love your blog!

P.S. maybe I missed it but you said somewhere that your Narinder was pretty messed up for a few years post revival. Could you give some more details on that? Did he try to hurt them? Who had to take care of him, the lamb? What’s been the downstream effects? Basically, how is this cat still messed up lol.

dont be! everytime i get a notification i go yuppiee!!! im glad you enjoy my art :DD

okay okay its prime yap time under the cut oof i love my fucked up cat sm

Lambert, mainly, took care of him! They made sure that every comfort he needed was provided and were worried out of their mind the entire time. Their disciples helped watch over Narinder when he was unconscious, just so he wouldn't bolt the moment he awoke, and Witness Allocer stitched some of his wound and prepared a special painkiller blend for him. (in my au the high priests, aka the mini bosses, and the witnesses were very close to the bishops! Allocer made the same painkillers for Shamura as well.)

Okay so obviously his wrists and ankles were pretty fucked up from being chained for a thousand years and he's got a lot of internal damage as well bc some of the chains went through him (og Stychu hc that I adopted bc it's so good). Also just general wounds from the final fight and the unfathomable pain of shrinking down from his godly form.

Upon being spared, he did attack them in a post battle adrenaline and hate fueled delirium, right on the indoctrination stone and not only broke his arm (bc he put too much weight on it), but probably gave himself a heavy concussions by slamming his head on said stone seconds after the break happened lmao. After waking up in,,, just a Haze of agony he tried to get up and run away bc he was scared that the lamb would just keep him existing in this special Purgatory and shattered his opposite calf so there's that as well. Unlucky tbh

He bleeds like,,, constantly. All of the time, for literal years on end. From his eyes mostly, but also nose and ears and he throws up ichor a lot in the beginning as well bc his body is adjusting rapidly to being smaller and there's just No Space for the ichor to go, other than out. He’s constantly exhausted and spends a lot of time sleeping, and is very frail physically, if snapping two bones by simply putting weight on them didn't make it obvious enough lol

All and all not a great shape to be in, but! His wounds aren't actually what caused him to be bedridden for so long. It was the fact that he no longer saw himself as a god while still being one and suffering injuries befitting of one!

His body/the Red Crown isn't healing him as much as it’s literally regenerating parts of itself while he suffers everything that comes with that, alongside being out of the Veil/Gateway for the first time in forever and emotionally dealing with the deaths of his acolytes and the supposed betrayal of the one he allowed himself to trust after his family. In fact, Narinder barely heals at all for a while bc he was just mentally stopping the process. And also unconscious for a lot of it.

The other big reason is that god hearts are a great power source, but his heart has been in Lambert's chest since Silk Cradle. So he is Struggling ™ but he’d actually rather die than take his heart back he’s a simp like that smh

After he inevitably breaks and he and Lambert finally talk, he gradually starts seeing himself as a person again and his healing process gets easier. He still has chronic pain for his joints but eventually everything else heals alright :3

On a side note, his siblings bleed excessively and are disoriented for the first couple of days but are ultimately fine within the week. They are kind of horrified to learn that their brother is STILL struggling with the side effects of his imprisonment

I need the kinda love that Penélope Cruz and Javier Bardem have

[loosingmoreletters]

I think the funniest part about my gay rofan dads is that under any other circumstances, Leonar would be the better father between him and Nichye.

Leonar wanted to be a dad! He was really excited and Arlen is his most beloved child.

Meanwhile, Nichye is Teen Dad Extraordinary. He did not want a son and his image of fatherhood, the first years at least, was very much shaped by “I’m the head of the house, this is my duty”. He loves his son, Raeth gets the kind of childhood Nichye wanted for himself, but he also kind of treats Raeth with the expectation that he will grow up to be like Nichye, only more powerful.

Leonar went into fatherhood with a much clearer image of who he wanted to be for his son and had a much more distinct lack of expectation for Arlen.

Like, Nichye’s attitude to Raeth trying out something new is just “sure, have fun, call me if you need me” while Leonar is much more involved and interested in what Arlen is up to?

And when it comes to Lysia in the second timeline - this carries over. Which of course is of total odds to this 18 year old turned 8 again, who is independent in ways neither of her fathers know how to deal with properly

In the right eyes you will be art.

Dear God, help me. Where are my nameless saints? Where are the angels with their feathered wings to carry me down into hell? When they do come, are they the last beautiful thing that you see? As you go down into the lake of fire, can you still follow their progress heavenward? Can you hope for one last glimpse of their golden trumpets, and their upturned faces reflecting the radiance of the face of God? What do I know of heaven?

For long moments I stood there, staring at the distant night-scape of pure clouds, and then back at the twinkling lights of the new hotels, flash of headlamps.

A lone mortal stood on the far sidewalk, staring in my direction, but perhaps he did not note my presence at all-a tiny figure on the lip of the great sea. Perhaps he was only looking towards the ocean as I had been looking, as if the shore were miraculous, as if the water could wash our souls clean.

Once the world was nothing but the sea; rain fell for a hundred million years! But now the cosmos crawls with monsters. ~ Lestat, TotBT

the struggle of genuinely loving self shipping and finding so much joy in/because of it, vs feeling like you set yourself up for failure because of it

[fraudulent-cheese]

Dashawn works because they're both desperate romantics, just different kinds.

[randik-86]

I don't want to be chasing after the impossibilities,

Of never finding you one day in my life,

I don't want to move spending my days wondering,

If your existence goes beyond my imagination,

I don't want it to be just a dream,

I need the certainty that our paths will intersect,

I don't want to go on living based on ignorance...
