Finally, The Last Part To The Group!

THISS-

So I'm watching One piece right now and just about finished the Dressrosa Arc when a thought popped into my head. Ace has been dead for two years and Doflamingo got a hold of the flame flame fruit. But Corazon has been dead for thirteen years and no one has found the calm calm fruit yet. So I was thinking what if Corazon had somehow survived but everyone thinks he is dead. It would explain why Law hasn't found the calm calm fruit or met anyone with it's power.

Part three of the concept designs :3 Up next on the roster is the crew's favorite giant man, Woton. (Though, on days he can quickly be considered a gentle giant...even if he won't admit it, lol.) Woton is actually an ex-marine, but is the crew's shipwright. At the time that he was originally taken into consideration but the crew to join them, he was actually trying to hunt them down. When Lee originally parted from her brother's crew, he tried to hunt them down in order to kill them. However, the reason he couldn't pull himself to was due to the fact that they decided to help him, nor did they ever try to fight his own men while trying to get away. The second time that they had an encounter was at the next island that they had docked at. Somehow, Woton's crew got mutilated by another pirate fleet, and most of the surviving men had sustained severe injuries. Lee's crew tried helping the best they could- and had even gone as far as to convincing the island's doctors to teach them what to do to help. During that time, Woton decided to interrogate Lee about any potential knowledge she had of the One Piece or affiliations with Gol Roger himself, yet after coming up short handed from what the World Government told him, he quickly came to the conclusion that she was innocent of their claims. In return for helping him and his men, he offered to repair the damage that they had done to her ship, resigned his position in the Marines, and ended up joining Lee's crew. Now, while this man does have a short temper on days, he can be just as patient. his favorite pass times include looking after Kimchi (and willow while she was a part of the crew)- though, it seems more like he was involuntarily assigned that job- managing the crew's finances, and collecting rare coins and gems...what, a man can have his hobbies, can't he? At the time of joining, Woton was 28. He is also the only member of the crew to have devil fruit powers.

More of me being a goober in my Fem! Thatch cosplay (Also, I did make the earrings myself! :D)

You guys are quickly going to know me as the crazy lady that simps for Heat and Thatch because, well....they're all I pretty much draw alongside my ocs, lol. But, that's ok. If we're going to have a fan base for these two, I'll be willing to single handedly supply fan art for them, lol. Anyways, continuing up yesterday's remarks of spamming art out, this was actually a piece I did last year for Christmas. I honestly do like how the colors turned out on this one. And I didn't really get to explain it in a whole lot of context when I posted it, so I will here: In a lot of the fanart that I post on Lee (my sweet bean that's in this post) most of the time she'll be drawing really upset/concerned or pretty much sleeping. In her info that I have posted up on Wattpad, I do explain it a bit, but pretty much she had nightmares about how she parted from her last crew (don't want to spoil what happens if you'd like to go read up on her-) and usually when she's around Heat, she pretty much is comfortable and feels safe enough to relax, hence the reason she usually is sleeping when he's near. Obviously it's not all the time, but it is a fair bit of the time. Also, I do have to say this as well: Lee is basically mute. She does talk maybe once or twice every now and then, but beyond that, she writes to communicate. Unlike Corazon, her reasoning is actually a medical condition that does impair her vocal cords. I will be putting out more art of these two because (HAVE YOU SEEN THIS MAN'S HAIR AND THE WAY I USUALLY DOODLE HIM?! IT'S SO FUN- Plus, Lee is my first and favorite oc, and I will never stop drawing her <3)

I feel bad...I've been sitting here all day going 'huh...I wonder when Appraise Love is going to be updated'... How...tf did I forget that I'M THE ONE WRITING THE STORY?? Dunno, but I'm going to be working on it over the next couple of days since I somehow forgot, lol-

I did a thing, and apparently Rakuyo has become my new favorite to draw next to Heat.

LOOK AT THIS MAN, DUDE-

ACK- HIS HAIR IS SO FUN!!!

I did a doodle of Heat next to him because I will never get off of being a simp for him XD

Their moods are polar opposites, ones a certified yapper while the other is just done and is a hop skip and jump away from shoving his boot in his mouth, lol.

I also did a few doodles of a couple other members of Whitebeard's crew, but I'm honestly not all too happy with them. Keep in mind, they are the first time I've drawn them, so these are kind of my WIP interpretations of them for my artstyle :3

The last little chick is actually irl me. I drew these a couple of weeks ago when I was sick and that's how I decided to cope, lol.

One Piece ocs and their preferred hugs

Look it here! Here's another post that I'm putting up today! :D (I really do apologize for the lack of content from me on all of my platforms. I've recently been working on fixing things in my personal life that's been getting in the way of my posting schedule and only just today finally felt like posting again. So to make up for my absence, I'm posting art up on all of my platforms. Cara is only getting two since the third is actually a gif of Lee-)

Anyways, this post is also for my ocs. However, it's both of the pairings that I always post about here. And after seeing multiple things about the blushing memes people do with other characters, I same up with the idea to make a reference sheet for the types of hugs my ocs and their partners like to give/receive! I'll also apologize in advanced, I know that my handwriting isn't exactly the best, but I'll sum it up for each one. Basically, Heat and Lee give fairly normal hugs. Both are VERY awkward in the way of affection. Usually their hugs are short (shorter than they probably should be) and are only something they do when no one else is around. So they're very limited in those regards. Most of the time, there's no real initiative or reasoning for them. (Not to try and cheer the other up, calm them, keep them warm, etc.). It's usually whenever they're alone and one of them realizes they haven't in a while. Beyond that Heat nor Lee really need much to show they're together. They know that, and that's enough for them.

Bernice and Thatch, however, are VERY silly with their hugs. Most of the time Bernice does tend to be shy about them when around others, but Thatch usually does it around the people on the islands they stop at that try to hit on her. (He also does occasionally to try and annoy the other commanders, and most of the time it does work with Ace and Haruta. The others have learned that if they make a remark about keeping it going or something a bit more perverse, neither of the two will stay in the hug.) Thatch usually enjoys hugs from Bernice on the account of her devil fruit. Because she can turn her body into wool fluffing, she basically is like a human pillow. So of course hugging her is comforting. Bernice, however, is the unhinged of the two and enjoys these weird headlock hugs from him. She doesn't exactly know why herself, but to her they are a lot more comforting (and silly) and do a lot for when she's stressed or down.

(Also, yes. I drew Bernice's little curl as a heart here, that was on purpose >v< ) I also feel I need to point out their heights since I've never really posted them here, but their pairings are definitely odd. Lee's canon height in her info is 5'7 Heat is estimated at around 7'0 Bernice's canon height in her unreleased info is 5'9 Thatch was said to be about 6'2 in an sbs, but I'd say he's closer to 7'0/8'0. Only reason? Ace is about 6'2, Marco is about 6'8, and Thatch is usually drawn taller than the two of them. (Not including his pompadour-). However, he's shorter than Vista (Who is about Jinbe's height, and Jinbe is 9'11. Sooooo, yeah-)

Fun fact about Bernice and Thatch

This is a fun little fact that I wanted to share with you peeps here because I don't think I ever really did before. Sooo, allow me to go into detail about it now. I think that a lot of people don't understand why I themed Bernice's outfit the way I did. (Granted, I only draw her in the striped and dotted turtleneck, but she does have other long sleeves she wears. I just forget to actually draw them and default to her turtleneck, lol) So, allow me to enlighten you peeps a bit here! Looking at Thatch and Bernice, Obviously there's a lot different about them. Bernice has a Devil fruit, usually dresses fairly warm, tends to keep her hair messier, but withing reason, and has her outfit themed more around a darker purple and black color palette. (With a few splashes of either white or yellow depending on the outfits.) Something I think a lot of people fail to realize is just how cold it would get sailing all the time. You can argue that 'it wouldn't be cold' or that 'most everyone would be used to colder wind coming off the sea', but you have to think as well that something like that wouldn't be the same case for everyone. Especially if you're on different ships. Depending on how fast the wind is moving would depend on how fast the ship moves. Sooo, Bernice wears what she does due to actual weather and temperature reasons. Thatch is obviously on the opposite end of the scale. He wears his outfit due to his work on Whitebeard's crew, doesn't have a devil fruit (Thank you, Blackbeard, for that -_- ), keeps his clothes fairly clean despite his work in the kitchen, and tends to make his hair nice. His outfit is usually themed around mostly white, but he does have some yellow in it. I'm sure you can already see where this is going, but let me geek out for a moment here. Obviously black and white are opposites on a grey scale. So you could see that much with their outfits, yeah? Now here's one better for you: yellow and purple are complementary colors on the color wheel. For those of you that aren't really art savvy, basically complementary colors are colors that sit opposite of one another on the color wheel. (Red and green are one, orange and blue are another.) Now knowing that, and knowing just how their outfits are described, do you see where I'm going with this? In short, Bernice and Thatch are an opposites attract pairing, but on a deeper level. And don't worry, for those of you that think I only themed it around the uniform Thatch wears, I did not. I'm actually going to be working on a few pieces in the near future where a lot of their outfits are themed around this idea :3

STOP, MY HEART-

I've never actually stopped to think about this. Like, I knew about Stefan, but...IMAGINE WHAT HAPPENED WITH MARINEFORD-

I know with some dogs (like my own) can show loyalty to a huge group of people, but show just a little more to the person they see as their owner. And now all I can imagine is a happy Stefan waiting for Whitebeard to come back after Marineford, but he never does DX

WHAT HAPPENED TO WHITEBEARDS DOG???!

MarineFord spoilers

So if you didn’t know already (I had no clue..) Whitebeards mustache is removable. Like he can put it on and take it off. SO READ THIS REAL QUICK

WHITEBEARD HAS A DOG😭 a small ass dog at that! You know bro was probably terrified of hurting it. Imagine that big ass man with that tiny ass dog bro. Sitting on his big ass chair petting him. Imagine there being some kind of protocol whenever pirates/marines would try and board their ship and Whitebeard has one person he really trusts to get the little guy out of there and protect him at all costs during the fight. Imagine how pampered that tiny ass dog is. Bro probably had a vet just for him on the ship. Imagine his little corner with his bed and stuff, his own little room. I’m imagining one of those small, long white haired dogs. The drawing doesn’t give us much to go off of but that’s what I’m picturing in my head. I like the idea that if it is a long white hair dog that whitebeard has tried to get the groomers to give him the same mustache so they could twin. Also if whitebeard wasn’t the one that found/ got the dog and brought it on the ship then imagine one of his crew members finding it and bringing it to the ship, asking to keep it and Whitebeards just like “Fine but I’m not taking care of it!” As if he didn’t want it. Ya know how dads always do that with pets when you first get them then they fall in love with it. Then they are suddenly in love with the dog they “didn’t want”.

But that’s besides the point. What I’m worried about is, what happened to the dog after Whitebeard died???? Where is bro? Where was the dog during MarineFord? Was he storming the place too or was bro locked in a room on the ship??? Was he at the funeral?? IM LITERALLY GONNA CRY STOPPP. I need oda to write a book about Whitebeard and his dog. It will be the only book about a man and his dog I will ever read because I know one of them is probably gonna die in the end and I’m too scared. Someone please give me fanart of this dog. Write a story about bro or something I don’t care PLEASE I just need more about this little guy before I go insane

I love doing research for my ocs :3

So apparently this was a flop over on Cara (aka, I think that I jsut posted at a time that no one was on, so they didn't really notice the post, lol) so I'm posting it here because I really want you peeps to know how much love I actually put into making my ocs!

So, I've said on all of my platforms, all of my ocs do have disorders or medical issues in one way or another. And with each of these disorders, I actually do a thorough amount of research before I officially post the information. (And yes, Lee's info is actually out. I posted it up on my Wattpad. Just as an fyi, you will be a minute reading all of it. There's a lot, lol) So, I'm just going to jump right into things. Up first on the roster is their blood types. I know, I sound crazy, but surprisingly, there is some research that goes into the blood types I assign my ocs. It depends on if they have a blood disorder (such as Pandora and Tonta with their heart problems) or their personality traits. Yes, you heard- well, read- correctly. Their personality traits actually play a HUGE part into their blood types. There are studies out there that a few groups have done that proves certain blood types have generalized similarities in personality traits. In Lee's information, I have her listed as A- for her blood type because people with that blood type actually are very introverted people. They're independent to an extent and are very reserved. To those of you that have read up on her (or have followed her development since day one of me creating her-) you can't say that DOESN'T describe her.

I also do research into the names as well. Lee's full name is Lee Ganji, which when translated separately, her first name translate to 'meadow' while her last name translates to 'two beginnings'. This plays a huge part in her info since her own crew's name she was originally the captain of was the 'Meadow Pirates', and after she lost them she got recruited to Kidd's crew- hence the reasoning for her lasty name.

In the way of medical problems, Lee has VCD (Vocal Cord Dysfunction). This is actually something I have, and it is pretty common. Basically, it's a condition that mimics asthma but directly causes the vocal cords to flutter and cause breathing issues. No, it's not a birth defect/ something you're born with, and yes it is treatable through simple speech therapy (or other medical protocol/ therapy). A lot of the time, this can happen from basic things like coughing, your drink 'going down the wrong way', and multiple other reasons.

However in Lee's case, because she doesn't talk very much, VCD is something she's pretty much stuck with. Now for her information, I did make it a bit more dramatic and have it play into a lot of the reason she doesn't talk. Is it that intense in reality? No, not really. (Like I said, I have it, and I still run around like an unhinged maniac on days since sitting still isn't an option, lol. All it does is effect your breathing mostly.) (I've also recently found out that vcd does occur more commonly in women than men, and even more so with women that has phycological problems. Unfortunately, this is also accurate to Lee's info since she does suffer with survivor's guilt.)

As for Pandora and her son, Tonta, their medical condition is quite…unique. And yes, this is also an actual thing. So, getting into their info, Pandora and Tonta were both born with their hearts on the right side of their chest instead of the left. This is a lot of the reason as to why Pandora has multiple scars on the left side of her where her heart 'should' be.

In reality, less than 1% of people in the world actually have this, and unfortunately, this does come with quite a few health risks. (How wouldn't it? Your body basically decided to play Yahtzee with your insides and mixed everything up. Of course there's going to be major repercussions with it.) The official name for this is 'dextrocardia'. And one of the main side effects that go along with this is 'Pallor'. To sum this up, this is a condition where the skin appears paler than normal. This actually has a lot to do with Pandora's appearance. While Tonta doesn't have it, Pandora does because 1. There are a few female problems that do tie into Pallor, and 2. She is the main and first family member to have dextrocardia. Hence the reason it's a lot stronger with her than Tonta. Now, does that mean it's hereditary? No. Somehow Tonta ended up with the same problem by luck, not genetics. So, in other words, Tonta and Pandora have their hearts on the right side of them by pure coincidence, not by hereditary development. (Their family's curse, however? Now that's a different story entirely-)

As of currently, I am in the works of fleshing out Bernice's info since she's my favorite little gremlin bean. (But to be fair, I have too many videos I plan to make of memes for her and Thatch just sharing a brain cell, so as of currently I don't really have any medical conditions really thought out. I mean she does eventually take phycological at some point n her info (and it double dips in the canon timeline to One Piece with what happens to Thatch :( ) But I think that she'll actually be a perfectly healthy oc for once with no problems! :D

Ack, I'm glad that I finally got to share that in its entirety! >v<

Also! Since I am still holding out until the first of this year to grind out art, here are the pictures of each of my ocs in case you don't know who I'm babbling on about!

This is a WIP, but this is Lee (She is normally shipped with Heat on Kidd's crew.)

This is Bernice, She's a revolutionary, but eventually becomes an ally to Whitebeard's crew since she doesn't want to become a nurse or cook on the crew and wants to keep her ability to fight (She ate a devil fruit. of course she's gonna want to fight >:3)

The mean looking lady is Pandora, and the boy is her son. She's a Marine Admiral. She's neutral and humane with criminals. But if you even threaten to touch her son, civilian or criminal, Just know you'll be losing more of your arm than Shanks did to a sea king. (The woman's known for her strength with just her bare hands and has, in fact, ripped a man's arm clean off up to the shoulder joint after testing her :D)
