"And our revenge will be absolute!" [[It's been like 2 years since I've last drawn Wagnas. This line and moment has been living rent free in my head since the trailer. ;u; Capturing Wagnas' intense look is so hard ... but I'm kinda proud of how this one turned out! ]]

Scribble of this screenshot

Taking a moment to post a super rough concept scribby of an idea @psychobind and I have been entertaining more recently, which is:

Wagnas' awoken/"butter-goddess" form having a nest of sorts! 🪺

Because the lore and headcanons behind this subject are so neato and I currently lack the brainpower to write them out, I will be returning later with an additional post speaking more on the matter. For now, enjoy rough scribble. 🎨🐌

WAIT WAIT WAIT HOLD THE FUCKING PHONE

So normally we only get fullblown, extended and dedicated flashbacks for heroic characters in One Piece, the characters who we're meant to root for. The literal only TRUE exception we've had to this rule was Big Mom's flashback. Even fucking Doflamingo's flashback was tied to Law and Rosinante's

So the fact that we haven't gotten a single fucking GLIMPSE at Crocodile's backstory is?!?

Like sure, we haven't gotten like a Moria flashback, but you know, he literally told us all we needed to know himself, AND we got to see glimpses of him in the Wano flashbacks. Arlong didn't get a flashback of his own, but he did get to cameo in Fisher Tiger's flashback. And Rob Fucking Lucci got a flashback that was 6 whooping panels long

BUT CROCODILE?? Not only do we know almost Fuck All about his story, but also have never gotten as much as a glimpse at it? But his backstory has been HINTED and TEASED at multiple times??

GUYS. FELLAS

Like. I am SURE the "Full Backstories for Heroes Only" rule is going to get broken again, but with Imu and Blackbeard already there just BEGGING to have their beans spilled, can we even be sure Sir Fucking Crocodile is somehow going to become A Villain So Dangerous To The Narrative that he ALSO should also recieve a Full Fucking Backstory?? For his Nefarious Schemes?? AT THIS POINT??

Y'all

I think it's more likely Oda's been saving up Croc's backstory because it might just completely recontextualize his entire character

"...Rocbouquet... Where ARE you...?"

[asheanon]

Casually taking @psychobind and @soulxsteal around the ol' block for some trick-or-treating before the day ends (here, anyway!) 🎃🖤

Sal and Tsuniah will be escorting them around a friendly little neighborhood tucked away outside of Aeden (likely) to help provide them with a more "traditional" experience. But more importantly...

He will be joining them.

“there’s no such thing as an unwritten life. Just a badly written one.”

You don't want to say it, but both of you know which life is the badly written one among the group.

me knowign i have to leave thgis event 2 go to anther event: sigh

[cat-n-rabbit]

[[ EoS made me go through a lot of old arts that I re-posted on Reddit as a little trip down the memory line :") I believe I drew this Wagnas when the RS2 Tower event came out, judging from the date. I remember seeing the first stage banner shortly after I started playing SaGaRS and being quite surprised by seeing Wagnas/Noel/Roc all human-like, not that Noel and Roc didn't look more human than the others in the first place but I had no idea of the stage play back then XD What Termite Queen!? Orieve loved Noel!? What is going on here!? I did some online search and was kinda mindblown at all this missing lore from RS2! Wagnas became my fave hero back then :'D I'm glad I got all his styles up to now, including his OP counter tank style. ]]

COUSINS

I headcanon that Subier and Wagnas looked quite alike as kidlets and grew up as best friends.

"They say butterflies are the bearers of souls from those we've loved and lost. Quite a noble burden, wouldn't you agree?" Wagnas remarked, his deal seemingly accepted. Content with the ease of acquiring the specimen, he reached for the siren once more, gently drawing her wing closer to leave a kiss upon it, despite her hissing disapproval.

"Fear not, I am a man of my word... We shall meet again." His words lingered, ambiguous in their direction, equally applicable to the merchant or the siren.

Rising to his full stature and straightening his robes, Wagnas turned his attention back to the merchant. "I never did catch your name, friend." His query, cordial yet keenly curious.

"Wow. You're really into butterflies huh."

The more stuff he presents, the more he is certain this one...had a fetish! Well he wont' say that out loud but his eyes if you could see them would show everything.

"Well, well well. We'll be here for two more days, and thats it. If you can't cough up the equivalent exchange, I'm leaving the sword here and we're packing up to the next venue."

Dash Commentary

Noel saw Dantarg in naught but an apron tending to a enormous beast over an open flame, with Wagnas being... spoon-fed some skillfully-roasted monster meat.

"...Did I miss something?"
