Fenris: “I may not get the chance to say this again, meeting you was the most important thing that ever happened to me Hawke. Promise me you won’t die, I can’t bare the thought of living without you.” Hawke: “I didn’t quite catch that, could you speak up~?” Fenris: “Then let me make it clearer for you.” Me:

Speaking of commissions, look at this beautiful piece I got done by the amazingly skilled @lorna-ka! I’m absolutely in love with it!

I love how the Pirate King’s right hand is going to be called Pirate Hunter because it’ll be sooo confusing to the future generations… yes, the Pirate King and the Pirate Hunter went to this town in…, what, no?  they didn’t have a fight, why would…? oh, no, it’s not his archenemy or an infamous marine or something, it’s his right hand, Roronoa Zoro… why is the first mate of the Pirate King is called Pirate Hunter? well, no one is really sure anymore, but the stories say… (….) and  naturally, all the best stories, the stories that really persisted and got around were originally started by Usopp 

If this isn’t me

I’ve seen an awful lot of posts re: the new Murtagh book about how “unfair” Eragon and Nasuada were to Murtagh by railing at him and telling him to turn on Galbatorix in Inheritance. And I find that so shocking? what were they supposed to be doing, whispering “it’s ok sweetie, do your best alright we luv you :) uwu take your time honey”?? Dude has had his will broken and his mind enslaved by an evil mastermind, he’s full of rage and angst– shouldn’t they be trying to bring those emotions to the surface to help him break free? Also, Murtagh is not the kind of character that enjoys a pity party or is even vaguely comfortable with being vulnerable around others, including those he loves (on many levels), as a result of all those years of abuse and torture. I doubt it would’ve felt very compelling to him if his companions stayed silent or just offered platitudes and hollow encouragements– what should they have said, you got this, bro”?

Idk, I think that it’s interesting that as a fandom we can spend a lot of mental energy (and I mean a lot, 20 years of it over here on my end!!) bending over backwards being compassionate towards Broody McWarcrimes because he has been mind controlled and tortured within an inch of his life, but Goodboy Mainkid and Badass Queenieface try to get him out of his broody dark spiral of a brain for once and it’s like “oh my god, they’re so manipulative, they don’t even care”. Eragon had seen and done Some Shit and Nasuada was also a tortured mind control prisoner (by this guy!!), but for not being moody emo kids about their pain, the way Murtagh is, and compartmentalizing it differently than he does (too stoically, possibly), it’s like it erases their suffering for some people, and I think that’s an unfortunate reaction. If your traumatized friend was maybe the key to saving all your lives, wouldn’t you try to snap them out of their misery in any way you could, magic or no magic? Paolini says it himself multiple times in the new book - “Murtagh was feeling bad for himself again”. It’s the way a lot of us would cope with severely traumatic shit, I’m sure, brood and overthink and marinate in our pain. That doesn’t mean it’s compelling behavior for the people who are depending on you. I think Murtagh needed that needling, that boost from Nasuada and Eragon to get the ball rolling, or else he would not have been clear-headed enough to really think about his true name changing, because he would still have been stuck in the dark, sad spiral of the mind control, and it might have taken more time than they really had for him to get right with himself. They’re not chiding him and making light of his plight, they’re reminding him that he is even stronger than he knows and that they believe in him.

I love that little emo-boy blorbo, but he broods too much, and I think it’s ok for them to say it!

Police/ Detective Au

Yeea, introducing my new AU.

It’s a ZoSan modern AU, where Sanji and Zoro work as detectives in the same police department. They are married.

Some history aspects are already listed in the pictures, but some more info:

Sanji basically started a new life in a new town.

He got to know Zoro the first day he visited the police department but he started work in a different branch of the department

They were introduced to each other by their boss (Nami) as they were both top graduates of their respective schools and immediately shared a mutual respect for each other

Sanji asked Zoro out after a few weeks, they dated, moved in together and got married pretty quickly

Then Sanji got transferred to Zoro’s department and everyone was excited to see how the (married) top detectives would work together

Only it didn’t work out. at all.

Both are incredibly ambitious and don’t like to share the spotlight, so they always end up fighting when working on a case together.

The first time was so bad, they almost got divorced.

Even though their teamwork is so bad, Nami puts them together as a team occasionally, mostly due to financial reasons.

Usually, they get things done in the end, like the badass married couple they are, but it’ll always be pure chaos.

Outside of work, their marriage functions wonderfully though & I hope to share some fluffy domestic hcs soon.
