*enemy Attacked*

Okay.

Tommy wearing demon horns and stuff and Tubbo with angel wings/a halo is cool and all. Like. We stand demon Tommy and angel Tubbo.

However.

Consider the other way around? Angel Tommy? Demon Tubbo? It’s not what you’d expect but it almost feels more fitting.

zoro and/or luffy being given a norse funeral, sent out to sea on a flimsy dinghy boat. everything ending exactly how it began

something that haunts me is how kuraigana island is an extension of thriller bark. the general aesthetic, the darkness, the hostile environment, even perona’s presence. kuraigana island is thriller bark.

zoro spent two years surrounded by reminders of his sacrifice, he left thriller bark only to return to it. his timeskip was a horrible twin to the place he barely escaped alive from.

in an eerie castle of stone walls, exactly the same. helpless in a gloomy wood just as he had been so shortly before. zoro looked out of his window to rubble and forest, thinking of luffy’s pain. he looked to the sea, past the island’s confines, and could only think about how he wasn’t able to stop luffy’s suffering this time, he failed, unable to get to him at marineford. he looked to the mist and yearned for his captain, the sun, unsure if there was even an end to the fog at all.

zoro having nightmares about kuma, about thriller bark, only to wake up in its uncanny lookalike; unsure whether he had even woken up, whether he had ever left, still wrapped in the bandages of his sacrifice.

and then he spent each day being taught by the man that until thriller bark had caused him the most agony, that he lost to. a personally curated island of his weakness, sacrifices, pain and shame. while i’m sure it motivated him to get stronger, it equally must’ve been an indescribable torture. surrounded by trauma and his fated enemy.

zoro, the proud man he is, threw down his swords in front of kuma and begged that day, vulnerable and desperate, anything for his captain. and he put his swords on the ground and got on his knees in front of mihawk exactly the same.

the parallels between thriller bark and kuraigana island are unapologetic and constant. what a horror zoro’s timeskip must’ve been.

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.

Roronoa "If I can't protect my captain, if I don't have Luffy by my side as a king of pirates when I achieve my dreams, then my ambition means nothing" Zoro.

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

You couple so hard one of you becomes king of hell at the same time with the other becoming the sun god

thinking about how none of the strawhats have ever known a luffy without zoro.

everyone joined the crew to witness this oddly content and peaceful, terrifying duo. their dynamic is sweet and funny, almost gentle, something you would expect from childhood friends who have been next to each other for so long they don’t always need words. and then again, they are something else when they are in battle.

they trust each other like they are extensions of themselves, they know each other inside and out like they are telepathic, they get each other so completely.

i’m sure everyone who joined the crew looked at them and must’ve thought at one point that there has never been a time where they have not known each other. until nami tells them, oh, they met a few weeks before i joined.

the shock that must come from learning their bond is nearly as young as all of theirs, and not a product of existing next to each other for years.

how baffling it must be to watch them save each other like it’s breathing, to rely on each other without question or thought in fights, and to realise they only spent such a marginal time alone before everyone else began to join them.

to never know a luffy without zoro, or a zoro without luffy, it must be hard to ever imagine a time where they weren’t by each other’s side.

EVERYONE PLEASE LISTEN. DO NOT IGNORE THIS.

Article 13 is going into it’s final stages of voting. 

If this gets through, it will allow many, many companies to abuse and misuse this article to take down as many memes, fan works, and even other independent creators on sites like YouTube, Facebook, and other websites INCLUDING Tumblr. 

THE FAIR USE LAW AND SAFEHARBOR LAW WILL NO LONGER APPLY IN THE U.S OR IN OTHER COUNTRIES. 

IT HAS ALREADY PASSED IN SEVERAL OTHER COUNTRIES. 

WE CANNOT ALLOW THEM TO TAKE AWAY WHAT WE BUILT FOR THE INTERNET SO FAR. 

So here is what you need to do to drag this article down. 

1. Spread the word 

I can’t stress this enough. The more attention this gets the more people we can get to take this down. 

2. Make your own content 

Make your own content on the matter and make sure it is clear to others that Article 13 is bad for every internet user involved. 

3. If you live anywhere in Europe, contact your MEPs 

Ask them if they approve of the article and why. If they do approve of it, try to convince them in a clear, reasonable, and most sensible way possible that this law is BAD. 

The article itself is way to vague about what it’s conveying to its people. 

Saying that as long as the use of said internet memes or content is good as long as it’s in “good faith.” 

We cannot let some shoddy government tell us what we can and cannot post. 

FREE SPEECH IS A HUMAN RIGHT. NOT A PRIVILEGE. 

Here’s a video on Article 13 that Film Theory made on the matter. It will explain things better than I can.

Edit: I’ve noticed that some people are having trouble with getting the video to work. So here is the new link
