Napping Together:

WHY has no one talked about these panels. fuck it its 12 am (at the time of me "finishing" (<- not even close) writing this, its nearly 2 am) im going to talk about them

ahem.

before i get to the Main Point i wanna discuss chils tendency to spiral into his thoughts

like, sure, yeah, he's a reasonable guy. real logical-- but he tends to rush through so many possibilities and in this scene even berates himself for his tiny mistake. every thought in this scene goes so fast to me here, just "snap snap snap, call for help, no thatll attract too much attention- wait is there a switch? crap its too far away- nevermind lets just wait for marcille- but can i trust her with that?? god im so stupid, am i just gonna be trapped here until morning???" and it takes a moment for him to stabilise and snap out of it

like... he even has a little pep talk about it

i guess you could take this as him merely being a quick thinker? but i highly doubt it -- look at this fucking guy.

anyways. hes always got to be eased out of it one way or another, whether that be complainerism (self-explanatory), strategising with another person (that way all the insecure thoughts get pushed to the back in favour of working together), reassuring himself (discussed above) or...

you. could.

distract him.

place a brick wall in front of that zooming train of thought and watch it crash and burn :)

he doesnt even respond in that first pic, by the way. in fact, he doesnt say anything for another 3 (and a bit) pages, and by then the topic has been safely switched (granted those three pages are just marcille and laios making the familiars, but i feel it still stands that there was no response at all, not even visually)

secondly, in that other instance -- see how his eyes go wide as saucers when contact is made? and how they turn into pinpricks once he looks back**? god. and. like.

oh. fuck. ive gottta continue this in a reblog since ive reached the picture limit on mobile -- i am not even a THIRD of a way through all my thoughts on this- we didnt even get to my footnote!! sit tight everyone :)

I bet Zoro has a thing for Luffy’s bad boy side. Oh, don’t get me wrong — he loves everything about Luffy, and he loves that Luffy is adorable and unserious most of the time. But when Luffy is being his anarchist self, challenging the Warlords or, oh dear god, the Five Elders directly, I bet Zoro gets ALL hot and bothered and can’t wait to get him alone. When he finally does, you know that man is dropping to his damn knees for his captain.

PostTS Luffy realizes how Zoro blames himself for not being strong enough and weak. Not that he speaks about it but they never needed to speak out loud to know what the other thinks and feels. Even after he brings victory after victory to them it's still the same. Luffy thought Zoro would know how he appreciates him and never would blame him for something like that. But perhaps this is one of those rate times where he should speak his mind out loud to Zoro. So he starts to praise how amazing Zoro's moves were, how cool he looked, how proud he is to have him. That would lighten Zoro's heart and bring a smile to his face.

I have to believe there’s no way Minx, George, and everyone else all weren’t 100% aware of what was going on. Maybe George was a little offended that Minx spat on him but I doubt he really cared. They all knew from the beginning that they weren’t going to actually date. George picked Minx for the clout (for both of them). If he stops being such an awkward fuck he and Minx could be very chaotic friends similar to how he and Dream are. 

But ~females~ am I right? so of course he’s like “Wot do I do?” and Dream and Sapnap are not there to be helpful because they hate women and they love ruining George’s life, whereas George merely fails to relate to women. But they all stuck to the plan regardless. Also Andrea’s entire idk “arc”? was brilliantly thought out and I have to believe Dream was behind it all. 

Something feels so artificial about all of this, and I don’t mean that as a negative. Like as long as it’s interesting, I’m sure Dream knows what he’s doing. What I’m saying is that Dream expertly manipulated the entire minecraft fandom into breaking records to watch his twink friend swallow his own vomit and go on a date with a woman. And in the process he got 2 women immense amounts of clout, simp points from the lesbians, and I’m convinced at least Andrea will show up on the SMP shortly. Dream himself is amused, but also gains points with his fans for faux flirting with George the entire time, and forever having Austin’s gratitude, which he can use to expand his brand.

It’s kind of sinister if you think about it. Dream pimping out his ambiguously gay best friend for the spectacle of it all? Does this fulfill some weird ass power play fetish he and George have? Are these intricate rituals as per usual Mr. Wastaken?? Answer the question Mr. Wasta-

animanga zoro meeting opla zoro would be so funny bc opla zoro would be like “so have you and luffy….”

animanga zoro: 🤨

opla zoro: are you serious? you’re serious. what do you think those tummy aches are, bro? what would you do if I went over and made out with—

animanga zoro, swallowing a bottle full of tums and brandishing his swords: I have no reservations about killing myself

Their smile is either the cutest thing you'll ever see or the most terrifying!

Drew more horror craft grian cause he is gremlin baby ft. His parrot ari, sorry if I didn’t get the colors right

Au by @pastel-mumbo (this person is an amazing artist so please check them out if you haven’t!)

there isn’t a reality where i can imagine luffy or zoro existing without each other. they’ve found each other, and now they will never lose each other.

and in the same way they slept next to each other and woke up at the same time after wano concluded, in some far future, i can see them falling asleep and not waking back up together too.
