A bit ago I was looking through the g1 timeline wiki and I saw that Skyfire and Starscream now had a 5 million year old age gap and I was like oh? That makes their dynamic so much more interesting especially how innocent he was portrayed in fire in the sky, I also wanted to share my hc on why Skyfire never brought up Starscream again
#fun fact in the marvel comics it was skyfire that was created on earth and the dinobots that were deactivated for millions of years#the marvel comics released alongside the cartoon so thats pretty funny#ik they dont have ages but the concepts are interesting 👀#i dunno i like toxic skystar cause if starscream treats his trine like that I can only imagine how he treated skyfire#like he did look for him but from how fast starscream threw him away did he really like him or did he only like the idea of what skyfire is#I think starscream did think he cared for him in his own way but not in a way skyfire would want to be cared for#after all he did tell skyfire that he would be the second in command when he took over#I think#ehh dont quote me on that its been a while since i watched that episode#I do think Starscream would be like this without Megatron#he deserves the credit for all of the hard work he puts into being a ruthless war criminal smh#am I really going to continue the trend of creating long comics for all of my art that get over 1k notes?#prolly not but I was drawing this comic before I posted that haha#transformers#transformers fanart#transformers g1#skyfire#ratchet#starscream#jetfire#jetstar#skystar#mentioned at least#maccadams#edit I colored in the remaining panels they bothered me too much 😭#and i also changed my caption sorry for editing so much rip

new Danyal al Ghul au just dropped! --or at least some art of it did. I call it the "Stillborn? No, no, still born" au (or stillborn just for short)




it's based off a batfam comment I saw that mentioned in the early comics Bruce knew about Talia's pregnancy and was ecstatic to be a father. So much so that Talia feared he'd give up being Batman for it, so when she gave birth she put the baby (Damian) on a doorstep and (seemingly) told Bruce that the baby was stillborn.
I saw it, thought "mm, tasty!" and thought what if that baby was Danny instead of Damian? By default I was thinking of making him a few years older, however, it works just as well with demon twins. I need to think it over. Meet Daniel Brown! 14 year old foster kid whose been with the Fentons for the last two years! He has SO many issues haha. hah. lmfao even.
Danny's theme song is literally just "Good Kid" from the Percy Jackson musical, to sum him up.
#dpxdc#danny fenton is not the ghost king#dpxdc crossover#danyal al ghul au#dpdc#dp x dc crossover#dpxdc art#dc x dp#dcxdp#dp x dc#stillborn? no still born au#stillborn au#danny's been fucking through it!!! watch me jam this kid pack full of issues. :)#long haired danny fenton#poc danny fenton#danyal al ghul#this boy needs antidepressants. therapy. and probably some rehab. we'll see where i go with that last one#the fentons have been the best foster family he's had so far. although best is not synonymous with safest.#that fourth one was me doodling how i imagine danny's first meeting with bruce goes. and by first meeting i mean#'danny doesn't even realize bruce is his bio dad but bruce comes to the awful and ugly revelation that his firstborn child was alive this#whole time and that talia lied to him again. and also his firstborn was fistfighting a fucking inter-dimensional being with a KNIFE'#danny's too busy fighting skulker to care about who the guy at the outdoor cafe is beyond asking him if he could borrow the spare patio#chair at his table. its so he can throw it at skulker. he didn't have time to transform so!! fenton fight it is!!#i looked up the most common and generic last name for danny and 'daniel brown' had too much of a nice flow to it for me to bother looking#for something else. technically his name *should* be danyal bc that was on the note. but :) we all know how the system can be.#long hair danny ftw

Stepmom Yuki has severe breeding kink 😔✊️
she fucks you nice and deep, putting her hands on your belly looking adoringly at the way the cock separates your slippery folds and she would love nothing more than to fill you to the last drop. she in fact, debates whether she would love to cum in your folds or so deep inside you. her thumb moves from your belly button to your clit and strokes it sweetly as she takes the leg above her shoulder and kisses your calf, moving her hips in such a way that she manages to get even deeper.
the idea of her seed inside you, your tits swollen from pregnancy and her lips on your sweet sensitive nipples is what makes her cum silently, calling your name as she bites your skin.
#i do think she would love to have a real cock sometimes that she can fill you with#i firmly believe that nothing would make her happier than cumming inside you#holding you still while you try to run away from her cock because it's too much#but she just keeps thrusting and thrusting#she loves to see you squirming on the sheets#anon i love this you are making me lose my mind#please imagine how pretty she would look on top of you fucking you with her hair down ok yeah thanks#or her tying her hair up in a bun so the golden strands don't bother her and she can pound you without anything interrupting her#asks#yuki x reader#yuki smut#cw stepcest#ohh i didn’t read the stepcest my bad lol#I was so eager to talk about her that yeah#but stepmom yuki is even hotter#but listen to me a gf yuki can step on me anytime she wants and I would appreciate it#I am so in love with her#too bad gege doesn't know how to appreciate the women he creates 😾 give them to me#stepmom yuki#wr.yuki

imagine being so bereft of joy that you cannot stop yourself from leaving this comment on a benign "look at this fun fandom mug my spouse bought me, enjoy this funny personal anecdote to go with it" post

sorry for existing i guess???
#the hoops this person must have had to jump through to see my post#since i imagine they are one of the users whose main accounts i have blocked#did they create a burner account just for this purpose#do i take up that much real estate in their brain#how flattering#salty peak sect 🧂#edited to add these incidents make me laugh because i am so routinely called a fandom bully for#/checks my notes#politely but not timidly confronting people in the general tags when they tag their character hate#and matching the tone of the person i'm talking to if they decide to get cunty with me#look i'm sorry that you feel uncomfortable when someone tells you you're doing a rude and assholish thing#but that does not make the person who is confronting you into an asshole or a bully#someone being firm with you when you're making other people uncomfortable is not bullying#but literally all i have to do is exist in proximity to these pissbabies and suddenly they just cannot stop themselves#from regurgitating their feelings onto my posts#or vagueblogging about me and dropping it in the general fandom tags#like damn if i bother you that much then block me for god's sake

I wish the 12th Doctor was blind until he regenerated. For a lot of reasons, but can you imagine in Twice Upon a Time where he gets his memories of Clara back, and he knows that she’s standing right in front of him. He can feel that she’s there. But he can never see her.
Imagine how bad that would hurt. Like, this man deserved a happy ending. But imagine the pain he would feel at knowing he’d never see her again after regaining his memories, even when she’s standing right there. But at the same time, he couldn’t be sad about it. Because he knows that she’s standing right there. And he finally remembers her face. And maybe the memory is enough.
#I also think it would make Missy’s arc so much more interesting for reasons I’m not bothered to type but maybe will later#and imagine how interesting The Doctor Falls would be when 2 Master’s are there on top of whatever would’ve built through the end half of#Missy’s arc! I think it was a missed opportunity and I’m so sad that this plot point just got waved away with alien monk magic#12th doctor#twelth doctor#clara oswald#doctor who#twice upon a time

i don't know if this is a universal phenomenon or if this is just specific to me and my issues. but. let me know.
i have a lot of Conditions. Afflictions. Disorders, if you will. and i did not know this about myself until adulthood. i had symptoms, of course, but most of them were subtle enough or strange enough that it went under the radar, undiagnosed.
and for me, that was like trying to live in a house where half the rooms are dark; no windows, no lights. some of the dark rooms are important -- hallways, bathrooms -- so you get rly good at just carefully shuffling through them in the dark so you don't stub your toe. you can function in this house -- it's inconvenient, but you function. sometimes you trip and hurt yourself, and when you do, everyone is just like 'god, why don't you just turn on the lightswitch or open the window, it's sooo much easier to live in a house if you have the lights on,' and it's like, yeah, it would be easier, but i don't have a lightswitch. i don't have a window.
so you make do in the dark.
and there are some dark rooms you can just avoid entirely. there are bedroom doors you haven't opened in years, because there's no point -- there's nothing in there you need, and you can't see in there anyway, and every time you tried to go in, you stepped on nail, or bumped your head really hard on a shelf, or there's creepy skittering in the back corners, and it's just.. not worth it.
but then you learn about your Conditions. Afflictions. Disorders. you learn they have names, and other people experience the same things you do. and there are even tools that can make your life easier!
and that's like being handed a flashlight. you've got a way to navigate without hurting yourself, now. you can walk around without tripping on shit! thank god!
but then you have a choice. because you've got the tools now, right. you've got the flashlight. you can go check out those bedrooms you never opened. maybe there's stuff in there that could help -- maybe there's lamps! that'd be so helpful! lamps are even better than a flashlight!
but like. you don't have to explore the rooms. you can be content with your flashlight, and the improved ease with which you can navigate your other dark rooms. but god, there's a weird smell coming from one of the bedrooms. and it's unpleasant every time you walk by it. and eventually curiosity or concern gets the best of you.
so you take your flashlight and you go in the room. and there's lamps in there, which is great!!
but, it also turns out there's been a leak going in there for 15 years. and the floor is totally rotted.
so now there's this fucking leak! and because you know there's a leak, you start to notice the water damage in the adjacent rooms. you've never even thought to look so closely before, but in the corners, goddamn, there's water stains.
so then you have to find a contracting crew. and hire them. and pay them. and they have to tear the floors out of multiple rooms because it's unsafe. and they have to tear down half the walls in the house because they're full of mold. so they do. they pull out the floor. and they knock down the walls. and not only that, but they track dirt through rooms that were spotless before; they get dust fucking everywhere. and it's so loud. and it's taking days. and weeks. and eventually you can't even stay in the house anymore -- you have to go stay in a motel while they finish the construction.
and now the whole house is a fucking mess! and fat lot of good the lamps do when you can't even live in the house to use them! and you hate this fucking leak and you wish you never found it because now your house isn't even functional anymore and you feel like shit. it's fucking with your life.
the leak wasn't even bothering you before. it was hidden away in a room you never used. now it's your entire savings account and your whole fucking month.
and maybe it never would've even caused a real structural issue! maybe the foundation would've held for another 30 years. and wouldn't that've been easier? if you'd never taken your stupid flashlight into that stupid room and uncovered all the fucking problems that were hiding in there? you didn't even need the lamps. you could've just kept using your flashlight.
but the flashlight batteries would've eventually run out.
and then you'd be back in the dark. stumbling again.
and if you'd never been given the flashlight, if you'd never been brave enough to check the room -- you'd still be breathing the mold. unknowingly. for the rest of your life.
#sorry. really long post. i'm processing things.#the moral of the story is:#every time i find out i've got a new condition#there's a brief reprieve. where i feel relief. oh thank god i've got a flashlight now.#but then. i use the flashlight.#and i realize EVERYTHING IS WAY WORSE THAN I COULD'VE IMAGINED.#OH GOD. HOW COULD I HAVE BEEN LIVING LIKE THIS THE WHOLE TIME.#THIS ISN'T EVEN POSSIBLE. IT DIDN'T BOTHER ME AT ALL BEFORE!#AND NOW IT'S BOTHERING ME EVERY DAY.#IT'S SO MUCH WORSE NOW. AHHHHH.#but that's not true.#it was always that bad. it was always going to be that bad. the work was always going to need to be done.#or else it was going to eventually kill me. one way or another.#so even though it is Worse For Now#that does not mean it's going to stay that way.#eventually construction will be done.#and i'll clean up the house. and move back in.#and then i will have my lamps. and new floors! and a new bedroom!#and the house will be so much better to live in than before.#tldr For Myself: it's worth doing the work. even though the deconstruction and reconstruction time feels SO MUCH WORSE.#izzy.txt

You don't know how much this blog is affecting my obsession with Sengen.
Like, you made me realize so many things on why Sengen is so cool, amazing and things (I literally cannot put my feelings into words wtf)
Like, they are so similar and different at the same time, they both hide their feelings behind a marks carefully crafted by them and how they both would immediately see behind eachothers mask.
I'm literally not okay that ending/sequel is so Senkaku coded, I mean cool ship but I really don't see chemistry behind them, but ignore that.
And, and, I don't see enough people taking about it but only Senku and Gen (and Byakuya) have dual coloured hair.
I think they are soulmates but because it's a Shounen jump they were afraid of the gays.
Anyways, thank you for your blog and for feeding my Sengen delusion, I love you and continue being cool.
- 🧅
OH MY GOD AN ASKKKK!!!!!! THANKS ANON <3333
i understand not being able to put feelings into words because same i have so many thoughts on sengen in my drafts but it's so hard to make it all... proper-y
and one of the things is the dual coloured hair thingy!! i've noticed that and it's just sitting in my notes here like:

they are complete opposites and yet so similar. they match each other's freak so badly it gets on my nerves and everyone else's. like there's so many little things about sengen that one can elaborate about, which makes me think inagaki-sensei put a lot of thought into their dynamic?
for example, shoes. gen goes from barefoot (representing tsukasa's side, as tsukasa is also barefoot. minami, tsukasa's #1 fan is also barefoot) to wearing matching shoes with senku for winter (as far as i'm aware, only taiju and yuzuriha, senku's best friends, share the same shoe style, so it can be inferred that senku made the shoes for gen. although, nikki's is similar but slightly different too) to going barefoot again after winter, then finally officially wearing the senku shoes post treasure island arc. shoes/outfits/designs really say A LOT about the characters in dr stone imo and we need to talk about it more (boichi clearly puts a lot of story details into the design!) like the villagers wearing the same shoes/colour etc... oh i could go on and on.
so yeah definitely– senku, byakuya and gen being the only characters with dual coloured hair is something to discuss! i feel like gen is highly involved in the top best byakuya story lore moments honestly but that might just be me and my sengen goggles on idk lol
as for the extra chapters, i honestly just kinda ignore the senhaku in it?? LMAO like they made it easy to ignore since the scenes were just a few pages and not really continual. that being said, i don't mind senhaku and i think it's a decent ship which would be fun if explored romantically, but yeah i personally see them as like... cousins or something. not only senku and kohaku tbh, but senku and all the villagers are in some sort of relative-y relationship in my eyes because it's hard to remember that senku and byakuya are not biologically related when they look like carbon copies of each other lbr
thanks for the ask! u sound really cool too idk if i should be happy about spreading mass delusion but i am and we can meet at the ward :D
#also i feel like they really dont commit to that ship at all#like for the ship that theyre pushing to be semi canon-y... they're not putting any effort in it sidhkddj#they would have big shippy romantic moments#but they would also go nahhh it's not like that!!! too#like what the hell sure#honestly ive said this before but i kinda thought theyd go real canon by the end of the manga#since it's... as u said... shounen jump lol#half surprised it didnt#and half not surprised bc the team is super aware of their fanbase#like the amount of sngn merch says as much lmaoooo#personally i think inagaki sensei doesnt care abt ships at all#like he isnt bothered by sngn or whatever#and he sure does welcome the cash lolololol#me if i was an author tbh i too would milk a ship if it was popular#something gen and senku would do too#imagine reconstruction era and theyre making films of senku's life and journey to revive all of humanity#and then sngn becomes a thing in their world bc fujoshis will thrive no matter the era....#and then senku n gen who r desperate for dragos to fund whatever new side science project they're on#would so do fanservice for more dragos#like senku would be gritting his teeth and against it but he'd do it still and no one would bat an eye at senku's disgust in all the moments#bc that's just senku being senku#meanwhile gen would be so flawless he'd do double the work and pull it off#anyways im running off topic lol#tbh if i had to ship smth that wasnt sngn id ship snk/luna and gen/khku#btw THANKS FOR THE ASK IM SO HAPPY THAT U LIKE MY BLOGGG#i get worried abt how much i yap on here but it's comforting to know that it's ok!! thanks i love u too#:D#ask!

idea: modern au, kakashi gains custody of sasuke (a blast from the past! I wanted to do one from to do list that was from years ago, was gonna do orv ideas but it didn’t pan put so Naruto it is, the hashimada romeo & Juliet idea was very close to being done but ahaha I ended up choosing this!)
Kakashi wasn’t close to the Uchihas. But he knew Itachi and Obito. Itachi much to a less extent, but he could hardly believe what he hears over the phone. It happened overnight, the entire family including the extended family. Kakashi needs to sit down after he hears it.
Sasuke is the only one left.
#naruto#hatake kakashi#wip: kakashi&sasuke // gained custody#jeez from 2022 so I guess not THAT FAR BACK#but listen. this was around a time where I didn’t Just Have my naruto ideas existing to be#ss/ssfam#incredible i know#but who knew I would be ever writing this one#BUT HERE I AM!#excited abt it if whenever I work on it again… cuz man….

A Rough Outline of A Female Character-Focused Punk Hazard/Dressrosa (and on) Rewrite, mostly starring Tashigi but starting with Reiju:
So Reiju sneaks into Punk Hazard wearing Sanji's unused Stealth Black Suit to investigate SMILE fruits under Judge's orders. She goes alone because regular Germa grunts can't handle the hazardous conditions in and around the island and her brothers are you know, busy being soldiers. I think also none of them have the self-control and discernment that she has, so she's the only one who could cut it as a spy.
I'd have to reread the arc to get the details right, but my loose idea is the only people she'd interact with directly is one of the children, perhaps Mocha, and Tashigi, who suspiciously attempts to apprehend her. I think Reiju would pretty easily talk her way out of that, and have fun flirtatiously teasing her and getting her riled up. She'd be utterly calm and unbothered when Tashigi brandishes a sword at her neck, so despite only knowing her briefly it would still be shocking for Tashigi to witness Reiju's cool composure momentary crack when together they uncover the forced genetic experimentation on the children. (Something Reiju obviously has a personal stake in.)
When Reiju pulls herself back together a moment later, pushing down her feelings and putting the uncaring mask back on, pretending her face never betrayed her and there was nothing special or particularly upsetting about the situation, Tashigi would be outraged at her pretend apathy. But the best part is that after her initial shocked angry yelling, she'd remember the brief horrified expression, the flash of anger in her eyes coolly put away, and decide her apathy is all fake and call her the fuck out.
Reiju threatens to prove her own sadism, moving toward one of the oblivious children menacingly, before suddenly feeling the lack of Germa's judgement on her. The closed doors, the lack of cameras. Just Tashigi's eyes burning into hers. She falters and pulls back. Before pushing away from the group, ignoring them, and going back to trying to find an exit. She doesn't make herself invisible again yet though. Having someone suspect her as not the cruel mercenary she pretends to be is very dangerous, but doesn't want those eyes, that have yet to fill with hatred, off of her yet. It's a new and rare sensation to be regarded so clearly and she allows herself to feel it for just awhile longer, far away from Germa, in an isolated lab.
We never see the process of Tashigi joining Sword, a part of The Navy that isn't obligated to follow all orders. However, I imagine her dissatisfaction with the bulk of The Navy began when it was The Strawhats, not them, who freed Alabasta from a World Government sanctioned tyrant. She still works with Smoker, still respects him, so she hasn't needed to move elsewhere yet. But in Punk Hazard, his continual disrespect of her grates. It makes it much more difficult for her to deal with the horror that once again innocent people were harmed at the WG's behest, and once again saved by pirates instead of The Navy. The undeniable evidence in front of her in the form of kidnapped, drug-addicted children in a cold lab makes being berated for being clumsy and stupid by her equally culpable boss just unbearable.
Maybe there's a moment where Mocha comforts a younger blonde boy and Reiju allows some of her pain to slip through as she watches them. Maybe Tashigi tries to give her a hand of comfort, and Reiju briefly leans into it before pulling away and brushing her off. Maybe when she says goodbye to Tashigi and good luck on her journey to bring the kids back home she's the most genuine and open she's been the whole time and the light in her face is breathtaking. Maybe Tashigi thinks about her often afterwards, wondering why she was the way she was, wondering what's trapping her.
It turns out that many of the children were kidnapped from Dressrosa, as they didn't have any family (apparently) to miss them. Tashigi brings them last, and immediately notices there is something terribly amiss when she brings them to their empty homes and they have no explanation or distress for the evidence that once there were caring adults who lived here, a long time ago. Perhaps her investigation lands her in the gladiator pit, where she meets Viola. I think being branded as a criminal "despite doing nothing wrong" would not immediately upend her black-and-white thinking, as neither did a single day with the clearly tortured Reiju, but combined, with now witnessing two major failures of The Navy made up for by kindness of The Strawhats, Tashigi would start to have some major internal conflict at this point.
Viola, meanwhile, is in the gladiator pit because her guilt drives her to self-punishment, and her desire to save Rebecca, (Becca 5, in this au, as I think Rebecca and Baby 5 would be more narratively effective and less stereotypical if they were collapsed into one character that explores the oppression of the country and the oppression of Doffy's family simultaneously) drives her to try to get stronger. Like other open rebellions by Doffy Family members this is amusedly tolerated and never taken seriously.
I think Viola and Tashigi would have an extremely emotionally charged battle, arguing while physically clashing, Viola taunting Tashigi for not being able to understand the situation she is in, for being just another Marine who only knows how to think like a Marine, for thinking of herself as a hero while being part of the same Navy that has repeatedly failed to save the people of her country. Tashigi asks her "Save them from what? Save them from you?" And Viola is SO ANGRY. "How dare you come in here and blame me for doing the best I can in a terrible situation that you don't know the first thing about?" And Tashigi puts down her sword, making herself defenseless to Viola's incoming lethal strike. She stops. And Tashigi apologizes. And asks her "What terrible situation? Please tell me about it. Please let me help." And Viola wavers, saying "I can't accept help from The Marines." And Tashigi says "Then let me help as Tashigi, someone cares about the children that were kidnapped from this country, and is trying to bring them back to their homes."
AAANND that's how Koala and Nami get involved! Nami, watching the fight, is alarmed to find out that the children from Punk Hazard are here and still in danger. She decides Tashigi needs help and runs down to her. Koala, also watching the fight, is 1) bored of waiting around for Sabo and 2) very interested to see anyone rebel against The Marines.
This is the part where I can't make up any more details without accidentally overwriting things that I don't even remember that might be worth working in, but I can't stop, so basically: I want the four of them to pursue their own side objective in the course of the larger overall goal, and in doing so have all their dynamics and parallels explored.
Nami recognizing her past self in Viola being forced to work for the destroyer of her family, being angry at her for giving up and just as easily supporting her and encouraging her when she decides to fight back directly. Unfortunately The Strawhats all seem to be allergic to sharing their own backstories, except Usopp, (love u storytelling king❤️), so it would be hard for Nami and Koala to realize what they have in common. BUT GOD I WANT IT SOOO BAAAAD. Perhaps Viola talks shit about all the warlords and includes Jinbei, and both Nami and Koala angrily jump to defend him. I think Koala would share her connection with The Sun Pirates more easily, as someone who wants to improve the reputation of Fishmen overall. That's when Nami is like oh my god you're Koala!!!! Jinbei told us about you!!!! And they talk about it very joyfully.
I think probably Nami would ask her what happened to her and what is she doing these days and Koala just straight up tells her LOL. In front of Tashigi, known Marine, and everything. I know Koala is SMART enough to be evasive but I do think that her brashness and urge To Bother is big enough that she'd do it anyways. Like Oh Tashigi does that make you uncomfortable? :) Don't worry I'm not going to try to kill you if you don't try to kill me :) Haha!
Meanwhile Tashigi is already having her assumptions challenged in a Big Way as someone who was DEFINITELY taught to fear Fishmen as a Navy Soldier so then hearing that Koala is part of the REV ARMY just basically overloads her system. Nami and Viola are laughing and giggling and the atmosphere is so light and they've already been allied and fought together for awhile so Tashigi feels fucking crazy. Like ok this might as well happen. I don't know fuck all actually. Is the sky blue? If I look up will the sky still be blue? I don't even care anymore OK. Like. OKAY!
She is too dazed to even protest more than very weakly and totally unheard as they simply Move On! Okay that was fun let's go back to planning Doffy's downfall haha!
So I imagine they do two tag team battles, Tashigi and Viola vs. Some Doffy Family Fuckhead, which is fun because they get to bring everything they learned about each other's moves from fighting against each other in the beginning to fighting TOGETHER in a very satisfying way. And Nami and Koala vs. Some Other Doffy Family Fuckhead which is fun because I think Koala is smart enough to keep up with Nami's weather tricks and I think they would simply have a blast together. They're laughing and winking at each other from across the battlefield while beating some poor man to a pulp.
I think before Tashigi and Viola begin their fight they come across Law, and Viola and him immediately Get Into It. Viola angry at Law and Cora for leaving Becca 5 behind, Law having survivor's guilt that he's too angry to process, getting mad at Viola for criticizing Cora even though he wonders why too, feels bad about it too. Getting angry at Viola for not doing anything herself, for letting Becca 5 be clueless all these years. I imagine the two of them, Law and Becca 5, as the only children in the Doffy Family, would have a much closer and more important relationship than depicted in canon. If he's not just trying to avenge Cora, but also free someone he sees as an abandoned sister, I think that could be very tragic and compelling.
And Viola breaks down first, because she knows she didn't tell Becca 5 because she was too afraid to cross Doffy in a way that would get herself killed, and she begs him to leave saving Becca 5 to her, that she's finally strong enough to do it. When he agrees and entrusts the task to her she cries more with the meaning of that trust, before heading off with determination. (In a very typical One Piece fashion.)
But when Tashigi and Viola win their fight, and they're weak and battered and bloody, and finally able to go find Becca 5 and tell her the truth, that's when Becca 5 shows up. And before Viola can begin to explain, she sees the beaten body of the other Doffy Family Member and attacks in rage. There's no way they could win this fight, both of them are seriously injured and exhausted. But right as Becca 5 fires her first shot, Usopp succeeds in breaking the spell. And Becca falls to her knees as her memories flood back.
And you know what fuck everything it's her MOTHER actually that was turned into a toy and secretly tried to raise her and protect her. We can sacrifice one father in order to save one mother from joining the ranks of endless dead one piece moms, it's worth it.
And I think this whole experience changes things for Tashigi. She's finally forced to face the fact that her Righteous Navy Officer - Innocent Civilian - Unforgivable Criminal trinary is not an accurate or kind reflection of the world. That if she had acted as an uncompromising Marine she never would have understood and befriended Viola, or Koala, or Nami. She never would have been able to reunite the children with their forgotten families. So when, shortly after this, she finds out about Reiju being a member of Germa, she decides to abandon her post and go find her and free her. And she's able to make more friends along the way that she couldn't have before, notably Pudding, and succeed in convincing Reiju to defect and go out to sea together as two people who want to right the wrongs of their past and make the world a better place. (And maybe fall in love...)
Maybe together they could go to Wano, and Reiju would get to experience helping to free a country while acting on her heart, in defiance of a lifetime of coldly burning them down on her father's orders. She could befriend Hiyori as two women who have held their families' complicated legacies on their backs and had to put up a cruel front to survive. Also there would be more opportunities for Law's fanboy antics, which would be funny.
Tashigi could find her place in a culture that truly values swords and created many of the ones that she chases, could prove herself as an honorable and capable swordswoman to gain acceptance, could befriend O-Kiku, and stay after the battle is won to receive special training, learn more sword related history, and help rebuild.
Maybe later they learn of Pudding being kidnapped and go after her. I don't need them to be in the main Egghead/Elbalf plot, but I am sick of Tashigi having to be in the background of The Navy B plot. And Reiju being relegated to cover stories. They should both be changing the story under their own wills! And meeting and helping women!
