(Frankenstein'd two asks together for the sake of previty)

I've been pretty torn between answering this ask and just doing a deep dive re-analysis post about Marineford as a whole (from Crocodile's perspective) because I feel like rereading it now as a Crocodad Truther, I could probably make a whole lot of new observations and/or read into things differently than I did last time I read it (when I was rereading for the purpose of studying the viability of Crocodad) Like there's so much to say about the whole arc and I'd include this line of thought in there anyways... But also, do I really feel like writing a giant essay like that........

I am going to start this by refering to this mini-essay I wrote like a month ago, about how Crocodile seems to have this attitude of "no crying over spilt milk". What's happened has happened, what's done is done, it's your own fault things turned out the way they did, there's no undoing any of it and you just have to continue on. And I do think that attitude would be key here to understanding Crocodile's actions in Marineford re:Crocodad

(Sidenote because this is not relevant to the rest of the post, but the reason this is about Crocodad and not CrocoUncle etc is because if Crocodile was only loosely related to Luffy it would not have the same kind of impact emotionally (for Crocodile; like there is a difference between a nephew and a son). Additionally a part of Crocodad is that it ties into Crocodile's connection with Ivankov in a really important way. If Crocodile was only loosely related to Luffy, him also being trans would kind of be like a random sidenote without being relevant to the two being family, but suddenly if Crocodile is Luffy's other biological parent, him being trans matters a lot more. Also if he's not Luffy's other dad then we'd be still stuck asking who the fuck birthed Luffy to begin with)

While Sengoku's announcement here would make for a horrific revelation to Crocodile in this situation (a revelation we never see his immidiate reaction to, which continues to be deeply sus), what would it change, really?

The little idiot child who Crocodile had attempted to murder multiple times was his own son. Sure, he might've insantly lost whatever grudge he might've held against Luffy, then what? That feeling would be one-sided, because at this point in the story Luffy hated Crocodile's guts and he knew that too. Luffy has no idea about them being related, and even if Crocodile literally walked up the kid right that second and told him the truth, what would it change? He'd still be the man who nearly nuked a million people off the face of the earth, took over a country and killed Luffy and his friends while laughing about it. Being Luffy's other dad wouldn't make him any less of a horrible asshole (if anything it might make it slightly worse 'cause you get to add shit like "child abandonment" onto his list of crimes).

Luffy came to Marineford to save Ace. Crocodile came to Marineford to kill Whitebeard. He had no reason to interfere with Luffy's quest, and with the help Luffy already was recieving from the prison escapees, the Newkama and the Whitebeard Pirates, what would Crocodile's assistance add to the mix? Would Luffy even welcome him in helping save his brother?

Luffy had his own life, a life Crocodile had not been a part of. He had no right to try to insert himself into it at this point, after all he had done to Luffy. There's no crying over spilled milk. What's done is done, you just have to move on. He should just focus on what he came to do; get his revenge and take Whitebeard's head, as planned.

Deep breaths

...Only to realize that Whitebeard is a dying old man and not worth even killing anymore, because he's not the same Primebeard whom once beat Crocodile and crushed all his dreams. Defeating Whitebeard would not give him the catharsis he came for.

And at that point, the fuck was Crocodile going to do? The revenge he wants isn't there anymore 'cause it went bad a few decades ago. And between the raging war and Doflamingo on his ass it's not like he could just sneak out without anybody noticing. He doesn't have allies (aside from Daz under him) to worry about. He only has his hatred to the World Government.

At that point, he might as well be a nuisance to the Government and assist Luffy. Even if the help wasn't welcomed, even if Luffy hated him and regardless if he knew the truth or not, helping Luffy right then and there would still be better than letting the Government have their way and kill his son right in front of him

Can I be mega autistic here and vent for a second and ask if anyone else is lowkey scared for whatever the next RE game is HSBWHDNDJ

im largely an outsider so take my opinions with a grain of salt but one thing thats been disappointing me in the few omegaverse stories ive read, despite how much the genre intrigues me in theory, is the like.. biological monogamy? with the biting stuff? i dunno i dont care for soulmate and soulmate adjacent stuff in general and tbh im not super invested in the horny aspect (although i do respect and appreciate it. guards impregnate that man etc etc) as much as i am in the speculative fiction biology+exploration of human sociopolitical landscapes through an anthropomorphized lens so this is a me problem but i do just know too much about too many animals so the claiming bite stuff being anything more than just bedroom play completely breaks my suspension of disbelief. all this to say i do keep telling my irl loved ones that i need to make the white throated sparrow based omegaverse i see in my minds eye. i see it so clearly. i see it so clearly.

Hey @ntls-24722

Scribbled a Debu in my little notebook and scanned it!

Also this scrimblo I was figuring out the shapes with but the above one is the one I was going for lmao

She looks a bit scared or worried to me lmao didn't wanna leave her out

I haven't been drawing much lately, I've just been getting back to it the last few days so I'm a bit rusty to put it lightly. The Debus are the best things I drew last night by a mile lmao and also the reason I got the scanner working again so uhh anyway I love these guys. Everyone go look at the Debus right here cause they're cool as fuck

The Tale of the “Poltergeist King”

There’s this very strange character that is mentioned in CV3′s ENG manual called the Poltergeist King, and he has no relevance to the plot of the game, only acting as the “keeper” of sorts to the Belmont’s sub-weapons (it’s just a made-up explanation for why they appear in random places).

In fact, he’s depicted in Captain N (which is how I even knew about this character in the first place). And altogether with the depiction given to him in the show along with the manual, I decided to make my own connections, oh-ho-ha.

“But Mew, how did you even get to this conclusion??”

Well... in Captain N, the Poltergeist King could take the form of a whirlwind.

Also, here’s another thing. Trevor isn’t entirely sure of the details in this tale (maybe Leon was a crummy storyteller). I have it so the “Poltergeist King” is not actually one person, but the name given to the Getsu Clan member taking on the role, and so it is possible Leon had met a different Getsu on his journey.

extremely important to me that my satyr is completely sweet and naive and gentle and innocent and is still a satyr who loves to drink and do drugs and have as much sex as possible, likewise extremely important to me that my goofy little kooky mad scientist archetype wizard with a silly voice and funny eccentricities is also unironically beautiful and desirable and capable of sincere attraction and love, extremely and equally important to me for different reasons that are the same reason

[thewhizzyhead]

you know my dudes i don't think i'm quite sure on whether i prefer "it's not a game" or "be safe/be good" as a prelude to it's just a ride aka the rtc finale cause like. "It's not a game" fits more musically and thematically to it's just a ride and it sounds so damn good and it focuses on the kids bittersweetingly making peace with their choice to concede for Jane Doe which is VERY important to them making peace with their lives in "it's just a ride" and their character arcs in regards to how they treat Jane Doe BUT THEN AGAIN "be safe/be good" has the kids MOURNING their deaths and the lives they left behind and like,,,the idea of first mourning their own deaths before coming to peace with them via finding the fun in the rollercoaster ride that led to their deaths IS SO FUCKING HEAVY AND PROFOUND ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING THAT THE CHARACTERS ARE KIDS LIKE HOLY FUCK THAT'S IMPACTFUL

Hey novel,

Reread your Damie fics all the time. I know you don’t write for Damie right now, but I’m sure you still keep up with AE and VP’a careers. As such you probably know Amelia has done and promotes a Duck Dynasty movie (produced and made by the Robertsons). If you’re familiar with who they are what your thoughts on this? Do you think she just didn’t know? I find myself being upset with her for it and I’m not sure if I’m being unfair. As an American I know all too well how damaging their beliefs can be.

Yeah, I’ve heard about that. I hope she didn’t know, and that it was just a matter of needing to work to survive. I can’t really comment one way or the other on that. I’m certainly not going to write her off for it (if she started espousing their beliefs, that’d be different, but until then I’ll give her the benefit of the doubt), but at the same time, no power on this earth could make me watch said movie or give it any attention. And I’m hoping her future career decisions are…kinder.

Me posting: HEY!! I LOVE SPAM LIKERS!!! LOVE TO SEE YOU AROUND!!! FANDOM IS A COMMUNITY AND WE ARE SHARING THIS SPACE TOGETHER AND ITS FUN AND GREAT AND MAKES ME SMILE!!! AND PEOPLE PUTTING STUFF IN THE TAGS?? I SEE YOU TOO AND I LOVE YOU AND-

Me reblogging: Ohhh I'm so sorry for the spam tags oohhhh :( I'm so sorry I'm such a nuisance sometimes oh noes I'm sorry it will happen again and the spam liking is such a bad habit and oh no-

I'm wondering if someone hits me on the head hard enough if I'll go back to not giving a shit. Because this is Tumblr. Who give a shit?

This is your reminder that if you love to see it, then you should let yourself give it too. Anxiety can go suck one.
