A scene that changes lifetimes.
the strawhats & their dreams
HOW IS THAT LOCKWOOD AND CO IS NOW A DECADE OLD?
God, how time goes.
Let's just say that I'm kinda ashame of finding out this word just a few months ago, but I'm glad I did.
To celebrate, I made a PowerPoint that one day, I hope, will be presented to Netflix and will persuade 'em to continue this series.
The bad thing is that I do not know how to post it here.
Can someone teach me? I wanto all of you to give me advice and recomendations of it.
As psychology student, I WAS AND AM AND WILL BE HAVING A FIELD DAY WITHW THIS BOY.
We all know that Zeff was the one to drill into Sanji's head that he is to under no circumstance ever strike a woman, but he wasn't the one who taught him to fawn over every lady in existence. If anything Zeff tried to kick that out of him. I like to think that actually came from Sora. I think watching his mother get abused and treated so horribly forever changed the way he interacted with the opposite gender. Maybe she use to make Sanji promise he'd never be like Judge. He'd treat his own future princess like the kind & honorable prince in the picture books they read together. To always treat her like a precious gift.
So Sanji being Sanji takes it a step further & decides to treat every woman he comes across like she could be his future princess. Even subconsciously, I feel he would hate to think of any woman being in the same situation as his mother. So when he's flirting with a customer on a date at the Baratie it's not just about him being a flirt. He wants to make sure that if this lady is in a situation where the man she allows in her company is being an ass she has another frame of reference to compare them with. That way if she's ever getting yelled at or hurt she can think of the random waiter who didn't even know her, but was able to treat her with more love & care than the man she's been living with for years. To remind herself that there are better options out there. That she doesn't need to settle.
Maybe that's why he over reacts to any perceived slight against a lady because how dare you. He knows the power words hold and the very real pain a man can cause so in an attempt to protect he overreacts & becomes an issue himself. Somewhere along the way he confused his respect with lust & his need to protect with possessiveness. This is something he needs to learn to undo himself. Hopefully by the end of the series he's done enough internal work to sort this out & come out with the healthiest version of chivalry he can.
So he may not always react the way he should, but the intent is there. He's never going to stop either so don't even try. Because whenever he sees a lady in a vulnerable position maybe just maybe it's his mother's face looking back at him. And he's not powerless anymore. This time he can do something to help. To stop it.

When Esther opens her eyes, the first thing she sees is a white light that goes out, and then comes back, and goes out, and comes back. Again and again.

My heart did weird stuff while watching this scene.
The Little Mermaid (2023) Directed by Rob Marshall
Some thoughts, quotes and just things I had once that I considered are something worth knowing:
Also some of this are scattered on my writings.
When you are a child, the only thing you may have and that never leaves you are dreams. You dream, with reaching the stars, with walking among clouds, with travelling the world. When you grow up, you realize that stars are far away and are way bigger than you. That clouds are just air, and that the world is too big. Those dreams die. And you have to continue.
Sometimes you like loliness not because you truly do, but because when you needed not to be alone, you were, and you had to like it cause there was no choice.
A sword is not a sword without first passing through the blacksmith's hammer. Pain forges you.
"I am nobody, but thats my advantage. I am a blank space that I and only I can fullfil. I may be nobody, but I can make myself anybody. I can be the one that shows them wrong, I can be the one that rattle the world. I can be the one that defies, I can be the one that fights to be better. And just by that, I am someone. Someone that made something, and for that something I may remain. I may be remembered. And considered. And listened. I am nobody, but I can make myself someone. " —Me analizing THE scene (not the possession, the one when Lockwood practically begs Lucy to stay) of Ep 2 "Let go of Me" from Lockwood and Co. It is needed to say It came out at 3:00 am while I was planning to talk to Netflix.
The only dream I ever had (the only dream that I wrote that Esther from my Sandman fanfic has) is that I want to be able to sing "I Lived" by One Republic with all the right of the universe.
If I ever had an encouter with a celebrity I admire, I will not shout, or go crazy, or do something weird. I will just say hello and see what comes after that.
To dream is to defy, and to defy is to dream.
You're not crazy, you just dont manage to be as false as the mayority.
You may be tired, but please, do not give up. One day you'll look back and laugh, realizing that the pain, the tears, the loliness, all those things that made you bleed, had a purpose.
"Love belongs to Desire, and Desire is always cruel". Neil Gaiman, you are wrong. Love is described perfectly on the Bible, on 1 Corinthians 13.
Darkness is interesting, yet dangerous. Be aware of that, always.
You are something to treasure. Your mind, your body, your heart. Do not waste yourself.
Hebrews 11:1
Whatever that comes out of that great and dreamer mind of yours is something worth to know.
Laugh, cry, suffer, fly, dream, love, live. And do not dare to regret any of it.
People.
Look at this.
The meanings of names and surnames.
For example:
George: Farmer; earthworker.
Casper: Treasurer.
Karim: Dignified.
So, technically, George Casper Karim means "the farmer of the dignified treasure".
Not so bad, it makes some sense.
Now, Lockwood.
Anthony: priceless one.
John: God is gracious.
Lockwood: forest near the fortified place.
So Anthony John Lockwood is called "The priceless one of the grace of God from the forest near the fortified place".
Now, Lucy.
Lucy: light.
Joan: God is gracious.
Carlyle: Fortress, stronghold, castle.
So, Lucy Joan Carlyle means "The light of the grace of God from the fortress".
What the....
Carlyle... Fortress... Lockwood... Forest near to the-
*gasp in argentinian*

People of the World:
The very first book crush I e'er had was Percy Jackson.
The very first fic I e'er wrote was about Percy Jackson. Its on wattpad, in Spanish, called the Daughter of Truth.
The very first time I did a playlist was for that fic.
So, my apologies, in advantage, for the creature I shall become on December 20th.
You can join me in the unhinged spiral or die in the way. Pick your favorite.
Thanks for your time.
