Hiyori Again 👍

I forgot how much I loved this art, I just want to keep it where I'll be able to find it

Sorry for such a long post, but - I sketched up my interpretations/headcanons of the (human [alive]) Straw Hats’ body types and had a lot of fun with it!

Zoro fans mad at this pretty and cutie girl, Hiyori, cuz she can touch and sleep with him while they can only watch Zoro behind a screen 👎😮

LIKE HOW CAN TOU GUYS CALL HER A WH0R3 OR SUM SHIT BRU 🙏😭 SHE'S SO CUTE MEHN

what I find wonderfully intriguing about kuina is her confidence!!, the way she may act arrogant yet hides a fear of falling behind that she just accepted for the most part, before the promise... I just adore her headstrong personality and slightly cocky demeanor so much. gah. usually when you think "dead childhood friend to strong tough guy who's motivated by a promise he made to her" you think of a gentle girl who was kind and loving and saw the beauty in every living thing; and while I do appreciate those characters, kuina's rage strikes a chord with me. her frustration was so strong that zoro would never forget it. and like, same lol. kuina was zoro's rival, the daughter of the head of the dojo, the cool and undefeated older sister figure hiding a deep insecurity insisted by what she had been taught about being a woman. and she was fucking MAD about it, and I'm obsessed with it!!!! she was mad at being born a girl because she had been taught that meant she could not achieve her dream. she was cool and collected but also fierce and angry and sad and only just 11 years old. her memory persists.

in the manga, I think the main memory of her is kuina crying, telling zoro he was lucky he was born a boy. this does kinda fit the "lovely somber girl, victim of the world's cruelty" image more, which is why I AM SO CRAZY OVER EPISODE 19 FOR WHAT THEY GAVE US ON KUINA. her relationship with her father, the interactions with zoro, and fight 2001 is always so vivid and haunting to me. SHE!!! exposing a vulnerability and making a promise just to die the next day. back to the "tough guy remembering the past which motivates him" trope thing: it'd be the girl smiling and saying something touching or heartfelt, yeah? well for zoro it's kuina beating him 2000 times at something he was good at. for zoro it's her defeating him for a 2001st fight WITH REAL SWORDS and then crying about it. for zoro it's seeing someone he respects crumble and fall apart. the memories of her he holds onto are mostly her fighting and being sad... her strength and fears... Man these kids drive me crazy

repeat it with me :

ROMANCE-AVERSE AND ROMANCE-REPULSED AROMANTICS ARE NOT BAD PEOPLE BECAUSE OF THEIR AVERSION/REPULSION!

ROMANCE-INDIFFERENT AROMANTICS ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO CARE ABOUT ROMANCE!

ROMANCE-FAVOURABLE AND ROMANCE-AMBIVALENT AROMANTICS ARE NOT LESS AROMANTIC FOR ENJOYING ROMANCE IN SOME WAYS!

FEMALE AROMANTICS ARE NOT 'QUIRKY' PICK-MES OR OLD MAIDS!

MALE AROMANTICS ARE NOT INCELS OR MISOGYNISTS!

NON-BINARY AROMANTICS ARE VALID AND SHOULD BE SUPORTED AND ARE NOT FADDISH!

ALLOSEXUAL AROMANTICS ARE NOT WHORES OR PROSTITUTES FOR HAVING SEXUAL ATTRACTION AND NOT ROMANTIC ATTRACTION!

ASEXUAL AROMANTICS ARE NOT INCOMPLETE OR MISSING SOMETHING!

AROMANTICS DON'T OWE YOU A RELATIONSHIP!

AROMANTICS DON'T OWE YOU LOVE OF ANY KIND!

I usually fucking loathe anyone who references 1984 on social media but I do feel like actually Microsoft deciding to underline every use of an intensifier as an error is some Newspeak bullshit. no you can't replace "very nervous" with "nervous" to make a sentence "more concise" actually, because the word "very" has an actual fuckdamn meaning that I am deliberately conveying, you soulless corporate horseshit shovelling cartoon paperclip ass motherfucker

And remember kids,

If you think lgbtqia+ people shouldn't have basic human rights, LUFFY WOULD HATE YOU

If you think women are lesser than men simply for being women, ZORO WOULD HATE YOU

If you think billionaires deserve all the money they made off the backs of working class people, NAMI WOULD HATE YOU

If you think compassion and basic human emotion makes someone worthy of ridicule, USOPP WOULD HATE YOU

If you think women exist to serve men and shouldn't make decisions about their own bodies, SANJI WOULD HATE YOU

If you think it's okay for healthcare to be denied to someone for any reason, CHOPPER WOULD HATE YOU

If you think it's okay to censor research, education, and communication, ROBIN WOULD HATE YOU

AND NOW HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO TONY TONY CHOPPER

DID AO3 JUST GO DOWN FOR ANYONE ELSE? 😭😭😭

subscribing to a fic isn’t enough I need the author to blast a bat signal into the night sky whenever they update

For some reason I absolutely love Roronoa Zoro/Kozuki Hiyori, but the tag on ao3 only has 75 fics (I check daily so I know) and half of them don't actually ship it (background at most).

Also they hardly have fanart.

It truly is the saddest part of shipping something not super well loved by the fandom 😔

thinking about how spoiled i got with reading bnha fics because there was a million and one fics over any au i could think of and now im suffering because i wanna read a million and one fics over one piece but there’s just. not as many
