11.11

Something something the king of hell and the god of the sun.

The oppressive, destructive flames of hell and the purifying fire of the sun that burns down all obstacles to freedom.

The heavy demonic heat vs the beautiful, healing warmth of the sun.

Two flames, two hearts, diametrically opposed and yet the closest of friends, the most passionate of lovers.

Zoro x Luffy

Everything about the nissin hungry days commercials really

Luffy let out his iconic laugh while looking at zoro (gaining zoro's attention), and then he started to praise him by saying かっこいい (kakkoī= cool) and then zoro replied with うるせえ (uru se e= shut up) can't stand his tsundere a$$? He was literally looking away from luffy while telling luffy to shut up, like??

The sky was quite dark and clouded before luffy entered the scene. He approached zoro, as the sun followed him, until it reached the two of them.. getting brighter and brighter by the minute.

The symbolism hello? Luffy as his sun?? Luffy came into zoro's life and he brought light into his life??? Which reminds me of what mackenyu said about zoro: "..and meeting luffy is the biggest thing to ever happen to zoro... though, of course, he'd never say that out loud" God i just love the two of them so frickin muchh😔😔

I know i'm a zolu truther but i love myself some namivi too<33

I don't even know what i want to say about namivi cuz their scenes are just very lovely and shōjo-ai coded?? they are also everything to me♡

Ok but the way luffy and zoro are the only two strawhats who were sent to one of the seven warlords of the sea by kuma, and at some point they bowed before the warlord for the sake of other people??

Now that i think about it, the thing about luffy and zoro that i can't help but to notice, something about some of their 'memorable/big' moments??

For luffy, i'm thinking about how often luffy sacrifices himself for (usually) more than one person, for many people in fact. Heck, even for a whole COUNTRY! (him vs crocodile, him vs kaido, et cetera) And in the panel above, luffy literally bows before hancock for the sake of his 'new' friends.

And for zoro... well, there's thriller bark... (not gonna talk about thriller bark anymore i rEFUSE to succumb to my brain and talk about thriller bark AGAIN) I think that's self-explanatory enough. And then in the panel above, he bows down before mihawk, for luffy's sake.

Ok so, i'm not saying zoro would only die for luffy (he'd also die for his crew, earlier @hellfire-fist talked about this point too), but sometimes i can't help but to think of this dynamic when i think about zoro and luffy:

I think it's pretty obvious who is who.

Like idk, but it's the way oda frames them(?) about what he shows to the audience, his storytelling. It's about the way he emphasizes on how zoro will and has sacrificed so muchhh for his captain's sake (His pride, his ambition, his life), it's about him taking on his captain's pain (which is pretty intimate btw.. if u ask me). And also how luffy will and has sacrificed his whole being, enduring any kind of pain, for the sake of sooo many people.

Like can't stress this enough, but zoro really is the perfect balance for luffy?? Luffy is so reckless, he headbutts danger right in the face, and that's why he has zoro, because zoro will be there to keep him on track.

Luffy wants to save everyone. Well, zoro will make sure that his captain is safe. And once again, they are the top 2 most powerful people in the SHC, so if anyone can keep an eye on luffy, it's zoro. They have fought the same enemies (the dragon from punk hazard, kaido, big mama, lucci, pica, hyouzou, fujitora, etc). If there's someone the closest to being on par with luffy, it's zoro. If anyone can fight alongside luffy against strong opponents, it's zoro. Zoro will do anything in his power to make sure that luffy stays alive (thriller bark, wano), in this (not) essay i will-

My time has been completely consumed by watching gay pirate content

I had the strong desire to draw some young pirate boys in the old pirate boys’ clothes~

if oda doesn’t give us a zoro reaction to gear 5 i’m just going to write it myself 😒😒 please oda… i need zoro to be in complete awe of luffy and say some shit like ‘heh wouldn’t expect anything less from my captain’

That’s his boyfriend, your honor.

zoro: must be tough having a captain that flies off the handle like that.

killer: are you kidding ? kid’s the perfect captain !! for me, at least.

zoro: we’ll, i’m pretty much in the same boat.

it’s giving two gay men talking about their stubborn boyfriends, i love them so much

Zoro still hasn't seen Nika yet and I think that's not okay

this is a sooo goood fic, i cant 😭😭

ZoLu ABO fic

The amount of sweetness in the scent reminded Zoro of the time he encountered someone, an omega, who happened to be in heat. But this one was bizarredly way stronger that it almost left him crumbling down to his knees, as if it was one for Zoro to worship and cherish.

(Or Luffy had always been thought of as a beta, but it turned out wrong)
