#idk I know it's a joke mostly but Nami means a lot to me as a character

[lastoneout]

"We need more imperfect female characters!" Y'all can't even talk about Nami without describing her as "mean" despite the fact that the entire crux of her first character arc is her caring about her village so much she tolerates torture and misery for years just for a chance to save it, and after that becomes one of the most kind and selfless characters in the entire main cast.

In a nightly delirium, me and my friend created this hellish crossover no body asked for. It started as a joke but quickly spiraled into just ... us fully giving the Strawhat crew full classpects and (lazy) Alternian names !!! Just a little brainstorm experiment 

Idk does this hurt more the Homestuck or One piece audience... This definitely has been done before 

BIG Rambles and explanations below (SPOILERS FOR ONE PIECE) 

- SO most of these we based on their canon birthdays, except for Robin, Franky and Jinbei for variety and like... How can I not make Jinbei a violet given he is a fish man 

Luffy: 

-Literally both Heir and Breath fit Luffy so well, given how much change he causes in others and the situation around him. Heir means “a person who inherits” and in the Homestuck world they create and bring change via their aspect, and he really does create change. He values freedom and plus the sign of “The Liberated” really fits if you know what recently developed in the manga ;)

-I think even in alternia he would be the same, even though I dont think Alternia has pirates ( maybe there are space pirates). So lets say he wants to rule as a Space fleet captain but doesnt want it to be under the Condesce so he intentionally/unintentionally starts a revolution. 

- Also he very much wouldnt care about the Hemospectrum, like the carefree lad he is

Zoro :

-Another one that wasnt very hard to fit into. Hes a fighter, he had a kinda difficult life and is generally very action oriented which fits very much into Time-bound. The Knight aspect was put in more for his connection with Luffy and how he vowed to always be by his side, but he also generally protects his friends a lot. Hes very much a servant in his own goal of becoming the strongest swordsman. But ,especially in the earlier arcs, Zoro was always dealt with heavy punches and wounds, yet he still fought through them and pushed foward.

- Again would be very similar to how he is in the series, just maybe like is in an underground fighting rink or something to look for strong players

Nami: - Blood seems like an odd fit for Nami in particular, but it was chosen mostly cuz its an aspect tied to connection and Nami is a very sneaky individual. She is a thief and knows how to swindle ppl in her favor but she did it for her village, her closest bond at the time. Plus Blood-bound are usually seen as spiritual leaders, which I think fits her as the teams navigator. The thief class is mostly there for her thieving nature

- Also you'll notice that some of these guys are pretending to be some other blood casts for story reasons. For Nami specifically, since Lime bloods in homestuck canon are dead, lets say she hides as a teal so she doesnt get killed. Plus it wouldnt be beyond her to have a few different colored outfits to blend in the higher casts so she can steal stuff better

Usopp: 

-Of course this giant ass liar would pretend hes a higher cast then he actually is. Honestly Id think he would lie he is a full violet, but he doesnt have fins, so lets make a stretch he lies about being an olive cuz hes being more realistic. He went to the extend of getting clothes from a dead olive that has blood so he can like “prove hes really an olive (the clothes clearly dont fit). Plus id assume he would be very scared of high bloods, so olives (being the most secluded) would be something he likes 

- For his classpect, Hope bounds are kinda liars, which fits him perfectly. Theyre also very imaginitive and dreamers. Usopp wants to be this great warrior, but he knows he doesnt really have the means to be, so he fakes it. He spins himself a false hope narrative with his tall tales. But Hope-bounds are also driven to be heroes and help. Despite being scared and cowardly, Usopp always manages to get up and help his friends in times of crisis, making hope for himself and sometimes others, thus his Page class. 

Sanji: - Ohohohoho this one was super fucking fun. Other then the obvious, Heart bounds are driven by their passions and ideals and so is Sanji. He is willing to defend them at all times and is proud of them. He isnt willing to hide from it. Now the prince would be a little contradictory for everything ive mentioned about Sanji, but it was chosen mostly for his past and how he had to destroy his princely title to become who he wanted to be. Plus he literally is a prince so it had to be done

- By his own birthday he would be a Fuscia, and in this hypothetical universe Ive made the executive decision that the Condesces epmire got so big she couldnt rule over it all by herself so she genetically engendered 5 fuscia kids (Sanji and his siblinds) to help her rule, but obviously her ran from it.  He hides a Bronze so he could persue his cooking passions

Chopper: 

-Another one that isnt too hard, he is a doctor and a healer so he got the most healer classpect combo. 

- sorry my child you were just simple

Robin:

- She is a Violet by her birthday, but idk it just didnt really fit her personality and general vibe, so she became a Jade for her more motherly mature role in the crew all round. Plus her wanting to live and escape her situation would fit a jade who doesnt want to be be in the brooding caverns

- One more not too complicated classpect. Light- bounds are knowledge seekers and schoolars, which fits Robin well. She is willing to risk everything for the percuit of truth and knowledge. Theyre also kinda mischievous and rule breakers, which i believe Robin has a bit of. Mages are ppl who gains knowledge, which just reiterates what i said 

Franky:

- another changed blood cast, only cuz hed be a fuscia and I simply cant see Franky as one.

-He was one of the most difficult to nail down, but I think we did him justice. Now Void seems kinda unfitting for the flashy Franky, but Void was chosen for the fact that Franky is kind of a confusion with his limitless cyborg gadgets. Plus Equius is a void player and he is an engineer so might as well . The Sylph also doesnt seem like the most obvious fit but he kinda is a healer of the Thousand Sunny who he made and maintains, along with other weapons and machinery and even his own body.

Brook: 

- His classpect is much more surface level. Space-bounds connected to the arts and Brook is a musician so its a fit. Plus they tend to rescycle things and make them into something new, which kinda goes in line with Brook kinda getting a new life. Maid goes also in line with his musicalness, but also both the Maid players in Homestuck are kinda connected to death

Jinbei:

-Another one that got changed because he just had to be a violet. He is always a fish man its just how it is

- Another one that was difficult, cuz Jinbei is relatively new and doesnt have the mountains of screentime as the rest,  so his classpect was done a little loosely. Rage players are there for truth and justice, but theyre also bring chaos an confusion. This doesnt fit in with Jinbei until you add the prince title, a destroyer class. In my mind this causes a contrast that kinda fits Jinbeis wish for order and stability. He wants to do anything for the people hes close to. Idk his im kinda mulled over cuz I dont know him too well

These were my personal interpretations, feel free to share yours

1, 2, 4, 9, 10, 13, and 14 for Salty Ask Meme~

1. What OTPs in your fandom(s) do you just not get?*

To be perfectly honest, while there are lots of popular pairings I don’t like or even outright dislike I sorta still ‘get’ all of them I guess… ppl are gonna find reasons to ship pretty much everything even if it’s just ‘my two fav characters who may not have met but bcs I love them both I wanna ship them’

But I guess this question is more ‘don’t get the appeal of even if you get why other ppl might see appeal?’ And I suppose I can name a few:

Sanji/literally any woman but mostly Nami: He treats women like… well… not human, and with Nami in particular he outright sexually assaulted her. I mean I ship fucked up stuff but… I admit it’s fucked up??

Zoro/Tashigi: All of their interactions are hostile and, in Zoro’s case, condescending, I mean I get rival ships and all but, honestly, in my personal opinion I really dislike the ‘forced heterosexual couple who clearly don’t like each other and argue all the time but are somehow still in love bcs?? Heterosexuality I guess’ also with rival ships I like the characters being at least somewhat equal in strength but… y’know One piece and lady characters… 

2. Are there any popular fandom OTPs you only BroTP?

There’s lots of ships that I only brotp but not all of them are like… super popular so idk I’ll name a few:

Franky/Robin: I don’t like to ship them romantically and as petty as it is, the only reason for that is the fandom and it’s tendency to act like it’s canon and attack anyone who dares to ship Robin with some other male character… classy. They are Nakama though so of course I ‘ship’ them platonically

Similarly Sanji and Nami are nakama so I do platonically like them together.

Zoro and Perona I don’t mind as romantic I guess but I do prefer it platonic

Luffy I also have a hard time shipping romantically/sexually in general though I DO ship some things with him like that but mostly I prefer platonic Luffy ships.

And to relate to my muse a bit: Caesar and Monet, I don’t ship them romantically at all but they are my platonic OTP~

4.Do you have a NoTP in your fandom? Are they a popular OTP?

The aforementioned Sanji/any woman, Franky/Robin, Zoro/Tashigi, most ppl/Luffy

And to add some: Caesar/Any woman, Doflamingo/Viola, Doflamingo/Law, Lucci/Paulie, Vinsmokes/Sanji. The popularity of those ship ranges from SUPER POPULAR to sorta popular to ‘why are you making fun of a clearly nonconsensual situation!? I know the author did it too but… ick??’

9.Most disliked character(s)? Why?

Answered here

10. Most disliked arc? Why?

Baratie arc, idk man it’s the introduction arc of a character I’m not fond of and the villain was boring as hell… I like Zoro’s fight with Mihawk though

Also the current, Tottoland arc gives me… mixed feelings, on one hand I LOVE LOVE the Big Mom and her family, Brook is amazing and so is Jinbei and Caesar is in the arc too and he’s my fav so YAY but on the other hand… Vinsmokes, Sanji drama and wtf are you doing to Pudding Oda…?

13. Unpopular opinion about XXX character?

Ah um… could you pls give me a specific character, there are so many to choose from ;.;

Let’s go with my muse for now though: Caesar is not a pedophile and those types of jokes with him are gross and not funny, also he is very very gay and that one panel with him and the ‘girl ship’ was also gross and not funny and ooc as hell.

14. Unpopular opinion about your fandom?

Ehh idk man I guess… like all fandoms the OP fandom is not perfect. Um um… I find it annoying how the ‘hot’ and ‘pretty’ characters get all the love while the ‘ugly’ ones are sidelined and deemed unworthy of any attention.

For example: While I was in Japan there were SO MANY merchandise sets that featured: Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Sabo, Ace, Law (and maybe Chopper), now what do those guys have in common? 

Another example: Who are the most popular Charlotte siblings? Smoothie, KATAKURI, Cracker, Pudding, Praline, Amande and sometimes Galette, what do those guys have in common over the other siblings?

Third example: People HATE Caesar because he’s an asshole that tried to kill children (and wasn’t successful) but love Doflamingo/Crocodile/Lucci etc even if the former is literally Caesar’s boss who did the actual child kidnapping and sent them to CC and also tried to massacre an entire island full of innocent people (including children), Crocodile, similarly, also tried to commit mass genocide, Lucci’s solution to a hostage situation was to kill the hostages.

I’m not excusing what Caesar did, it was terrible and he is truly awful but… I wonder why he’s so unpopular and hated for what he did while other characters who are HOT™ are loved and praised despite all they’ve done…

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t dislike any of those characters mentioned (exceptSanji) but HMMMMM…
