Morale is so low I had to cure it by drawing an ancient MS Paint fox eevee thing

screaming, crying, throwing up, as I force myself to write a story i'm very passionate about and love writing and have no obligation to write except that i want to

it's so wild to me that you absolutely cannot force a hyperfixation to happen. like you'll watch the most perfectly tailor-made-for-you content that everyone says you'll love and feel absolutely nothing, and then the thing you watch on a whim to fill time will reach through the screen and put its damn fingers in your brain and start rearranging the neurons right in front of you and every single time you're like THIS??? THIS??????? and this happens like every 6-12 months forever

Buges 😈😈

Also this guy was drinking my sweat

it's Epoida! the caterpillar form full body pic is largely headcanon.

plus some power headcanons:

I could imagine his devil fruit power have to do with like, forming extra body segments for different situations extra legs for running or extra arms for wielding more weapons at once

he could make silk like a silkworm to trap foes when he sleeps he hangs himself from a high spot like a bagworm

he can regrow lost body segments and I could imagine if he's cut in half from right at the junction of a segment, he can grow another immediately while the separate segment, if it has limbs, can function independently for a short while before running out of juice.

if even just one segment survives he could probably regrow himself from that

also because caterpillars I imagine he has a very ravenous appetite, rivalling Luffy's, almost. can't grow extra segments if he's running on empty.

so yeah, those are my headcanons so far

Yeah

art will save you, being unreasonably passionate about something niche will save you, letting past sources of joy show you the way back to yourself will save you, earnestness over composure will save you, the natural world will save you, caring for something bigger than yourself will save you, daring to be seen will save you, kindness not as a whim but a principle will save you, appreciation as a practice will save you, daring to try something new will save you, grounding will save you, love will save you, one good nights sleep will save you
