SENSHI Would Want You To Get Enough Sleep And Have Nice Nutritious Meals

I love (and am actively ill over) the fact that ace canonically will not shut up about his lil guy. when jinbe found out ace’s brother was in impel down he was like OHHHHH LUFFY the kid in the strawhats you’re ALWAYS talking about. to luffy’s face he’s like “punk ass” but to everyone else he’s handing out school pictures from his wallet

i like when they have the same or similar reactions to things

Finally watching the raid on Onigashima and my luzo brain has never been more fed. The sheer amount of times Zoro has said the word captain and jumped in behind luffy is making me dizzy lmao

Wingman Zelda, A concept:

Then:

Now:

Zolu spend the entire day getting Valentine's couple specials at restaurants like free desserts and drinks

zoro conveniently wearing an all black iteration of his traditional outfit for the battle luffy would later activate gear 5, an all white iteration of his traditional outfit. zoro conveniently activating “king of hell” with the backdrop of the moon during the same battle luffy activated “sun god: nika.”

if you’re delusional enough (watch this), all these parallels were done with the foresight and purpose to make zoro and luffy two halves of a whole. light and dark, sun and moon, life and death, angel and demon, liberation and punishment, beginning and end, heaven and hell. i really believe these were intentional decisions to make zoro and luffy, captain and first mate, inseparable. intertwined on such a fundamental level that they complete each other, they can’t exist without one another, and wherever one is, the other will follow as if it’s as vital as ground beneath their feet or air in their lungs.

Luffy being clingy to Zoro is basically expected of him. In my mind, Zoro had the same change in his attitude towards that clinginess as he did for Luffy’s shenanigans. Pre time-skip he’s flustered/annoyed and post time-skip he just accepts it. Knowing this I love the idea of Zoro becoming even slightly more clingy post time-skip, and Luffy becoming a flustered mess instead.

TW: Mentions of death

"Humans are fragile things, Zoro...".

He had known that since childhood—since the day his mother was taken from him by an illness and his best friend by an accident.

There are some things in life he could never control. There are some things his strength couldn't protect.

Kuina’s death was unavoidable. There’s no man he could defeat to avenge what happened, but there is someone he could beat so that Kuina’s soul would live on.

Then he met Luffy.

Before him, he has nothing but his swords and his dream.

Luffy gave him direction. Luffy gave him companionship from his lonely journey in search of Mihawk. Luffy gave him more reason to fight—not just for his dream, but for hers too.

Luffy gave him a family.

And he would protect them. He would give everything. Anything to keep them safe.

His strength would keep them alive.

But what if he learned about Luffy’s shortened lifespan?

What now?

Luffy and Zoro have always shared the same mindset: If fate decides that it’s time to die, then perhaps it is. They aren’t scared as long as they fight for their dreams, right? RIGHT?

But he had always believed Luffy would live longer. He had made sacrifices to guarantee Luffy would outlive him. He had made sure of that!

He had always protected Luffy with his swords. And if not with swords, he would have given his life instead. His strength would keep him alive! Luffy must live!

But this… this kind of death is something his swords couldn’t reach. There was no enemy to cut down, no deal to strike, no sacrifice to make.

What now?

He couldn't save Kuina. He cannot bare not to be able to save Luffy too.

"Humans are fragile things, Zoro..."

And there are some things his strength couldn't protect.

That thought alone was terrifying.

[The proposal]

Ussop: “SO?! “DID SHE SAY YES?!”

Robin smiled, lifting her hand,letting the light glint off the ring.

The reaction was instant.

Luffy threw his arms up in celebration. “WOOHOO!!”

Chopper's eyes sparkling:“Robin, you’re getting MARRIED?!”

Sanji looked devastated but quickly turned his heartbreak into a dramatic bow. “If I had to lose my dear Robin-chwan to anyone, I’m glad it was you, Franky…”

Franky smirked:“Damn right.”

Usopp grabbed Franky’s shoulders, shaking him: “DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU’VE DONE?! YOU JUST PROMISED TO SPEND THE REST OF YOUR LIFE WITH A WOMAN WHO CAN SNAP YOUR NECK WITH ONE HAND!!”

Franky just grinned wider crossing his arms: "And I’d die SUPER happy.”
