You're One To Talk

now that i have finished watching the baron omatsuri movie and scoured ao3 for related fics....WHERE ARE THEY? there's legit like 6 out there, even with the intense angst potential the movie gives you. luffy having nightmares. chopper worrying about Luffy's wounds he won't say anything about. zoro having a weird fear that he failed his captain somehow. luffy being a bit skittish around sanji because the words 'this is all your fault' keeps echoing in his head. even though they are all safe and can't remember a thing, maybe they wouldn't have suffered if luffy hadn't insisted on playing? luffy getting anxious every time sanji and zoro do their normal bickering, or when nami and usopp's voices rise even a bit. the crew being puzzled by it all. luffy panicking when he feels like he hasn't seen one crew member in a while. there's soo much you can do. like come on, the movie served us angst in plates and bowls and also gave us the required seasoning. we need to make use of it!!!

zorozoorozorztozrozoro i’m so. normal about him.

I KNOW HE LOOKS WHITEWASHED BUT I PROMISE ALL OF THE COLORS ARE PALER NOT JUST HIS SKIN I WAS GOIN FOR A PASTEL LOOK

what the heck..

i just said all of this yesterday, that's wild.

but i agree with all of this. the baratie arc focused so heavily on dreams. on how sanji gave hers up because she couldn't think of any other way to express how much he appreciated all zeff did for him. i've been reading the manga since i caught up with the anime, and reading everything that happened in the baratie felt really disconnected from the current stuff that's happening. there are all these moments where sanji and zeff watch the fights - both zoro vs mihawk and luffy vs kreig- and sanji can't understand why these two are fighting so hard for their dreams. why would they risk their life for something they don't even know is possible? and that's what luffy teaches her, i think. that it IS possible because, to luffy, nothing is impossible if you try hard enough. and even he fails at becoming king of the pirates, he doesn't falter because "i guess it wasn't meant to be". for luffy, the journey is just as important as the ending. and, to me, that's something sanji really needed to learn, and still needs to learn.

but after the baratie arc, we don't see that anymore. when's the last time we heard about the all blue? or saw sanji express himself through cooking?

i don't want to see sanji get stronger the same way i want to see luffy or zoro get stronger, i want to see her explore ruins with robin just in case there's some mention of the all blue, or work with franky on building a better kitchen with all the knowledge she gets. i want to see him pouring over maps with nami, discussing theories. using usopp or chopper or franky as guineapigs for new recipies because zoro doesn't give good feedback and luffy inhales it too fast to properly taste and she's honeslty not even sure if brook can taste or if he's just pulling her leg. discussing fish with jinbei, all the different kinds he's seen and the unique dishes from fishman island.

all the strawhats have so much potential that i don't think is properly explored, and even though i understand that you often have to push aside the slice of life moments so you can progress the plot, i still think that there's more the characters could be doing

So many of my thoughts on sanji are about how he’s the food guy that I legitimately sometimes forget that he really . Isn’t . The food guy . In canon

I need to draw Luffy more often he’s so silly!! I decided to draw them in a more simplish style just because that captures their vibe better.

I drew her with my headcanons, but if you don’t agree with them that’s fine! Just don’t… start a war with me… pls and thank u

Some doole page of Zoro from manga pages

And doodles of pony zolu

OK I REALLY LIKE HOW IT TURNED OUT-
