#one piece spoilers kinda

[room--of--mirrors]

So I've seen some people say that if they were to be a One Piece character, they would be Usopp because "frankly we wouldn't be those overpowered dudes with no fears etc etc" and while I do enjoy people recognizing Usopp is just a guy who tries his hardest in a world full of monsters I'm like I don't think you would be Usopp cause would you be able to survive as a kid all alone for 11 YEARS ? Imagine you at 7 years old gardening, cooking, doing laundry, cleaning the house, reparing the house, ALL ALONE (I'm thinking about Usopp surviving all those years more than I should, I know I know). Bet the house wouldn't still be there if it were me, I wouldn't even be there at all.

And would you really try to chat and cheer up the freaking rich girl next door ? Like when you already have so much troubles of your own, how could you even try to liven others up ? The idea to ask her for a bit of money surely never crosses his mind and he probably never talked about his situation to her. Would you even try to risk your own life to save her, though when you tell her the enemy's plan she doesn't even believe you and says you're a terrible person and slaps you ?

And when you've decided to set sail with fellows you've met days ago, a few months later the captain, your so called bestie, just throws you in the face a magazine to look at new boats cause "hey we're changing ships" cause understanding the feelings of your friends and talking them through seems way too hard to even try... (this is beyond me). Would you even still consider him your friend when he just says if you ain't happy with it, just walk out the freaking door ? and none of your friends except one steps in ?

Would you even try to risk your life to save one of your friends when you feel so ashamed and guilty you can't even look them in the eyes ? And would you really consider getting back with those friends when your bestie decided to just take in the crew your very own enemy - the guy who's the reason you were so physically and mentally wrecked - and expecting you to come back with him and be buddies without asking you if you're okay with this ? But whatever cause you've already befriended that guy who'd destroyed you and even forgiven him cause MEN DON'T HOLD GRUDGES ?!? Would you even apologize ON YOUR KNEES to those very friends who seem ready to leave you behind when there are bombs flying all over the place ?

Nah I won't do any of this. Like I know it's not that deep, but please let's be real, we couldn't ever be Usopp (let's not even talk about his abilities with his slingshot, his story telling and other skills...), if we really were to be characters in One Piece, it would be those random people who just tortured Tenryubito's children just cause we're bitter and resentful and hateful or those silly people on Dressrosa who just changed sides every minute of the day or for the kindest and strongest of people at there, random pirates on Foxy's crew.

My favorite thing about luffy is his willingness to shoot down the world government flag, he knows the punishment and the risks of it, he knows this will get him even more hunted, but it didn’t matter he was willing to shoot it down all for robin, he’s willing to start a war for her, why you may ask, because he’s luffy

WAIT CHAT HOLD ON-

SENTINEL HAS WINGS!!!!!

"Yeah obviously he turns into a jet-" NO!!!!!

Initially I thought they were like angel wings (which yeah, they are) and it's great symbolism because of his whole false Prime thing. He has this façade about being a noble leader and all that and he probably thinks that he's Primus' gift to the universe. The Devil disguised as an angel. Or something something the Devil was once the most beautiful angel of all. Idk lotsa places you can go with the angel symbolism.

HOWEVER

They're GOLDEN. You know who else had golden wings? Icarus. Who flew too close to the sun. Who's entire myth is about hubris and how pride can be your undoing. Does that sound familiar to you guys???

Sentinel flew too close to the sun believing that he could kill the Primes and seize all that wealth and power with no consequence. He thought that he was sooo great and nothing bad would ever happen to him because he won!!! And then he got too comfortable and sloppy and everything he built fell apart in just one day.

Whoever was on the design team for Transformers One you cooked hard with this one

rewatching one piece episode 1119 has me thinking a lot about sabo + his emotions

like. you can see in the episode that what happened to king cobra genuinely affected him. he wanted to save king cobra, and he was obviously upset at his inability to save king cobra. and we know from the manga that when he is a stowaway on the ship back to lulusia, he thinks back to king cobra's dying words and has a pained expression.

yet... to dragon and ivankov, he tells them he is okay with what happened if it fuels the flames of the revolution. he keeps a straight face, despite shaking a bit, and does his best to seem unaffected by what happened.

and then i think back to dressrosa, when koala called sabo after he reunited with luffy, and how sabo didn't cry when he saw luffy, but cried after when talking to koala.

and then i remember how young he was when he was named chief of staff. what a heavy burden that is on the shoulders of someone so young. how he has probably forced himself to be strong, to show no weakness or vulnerability because weakness and vulnerability can be used against him and he is responsible for the lives of hundreds if not thousands of people. how he has probably tried to model himself off of dragon, who is stoic and doesn't easily show his emotions. or kuma, who after suffering a massive loss threw himself harder into his work, pushed himself further to achieve their goals.

and it makes me wonder... if we'll ever get to a breaking point with sabo. if something will happen that will just make him snap and lose that mask, that strength he hides his vulnerabilities behind. and i wonder what that would look like.
