Hell Hath No Fury (Like The Leviathan)
Calypso is a relaxed person by nature, often more than content to lean into the lazy façade that others have built up for them-- it's easier to go with the flow than fight against it. Patience can be apathy by another name, some days.
That being said, everyone has a limit.
Cal may be tolerant of a lot, sometimes too much... but at heart they are still a pirate, with all the mean and nasty things that come with it. This is 'Calypso the Oracle' in the rare bout of righteous fury.

My Little Pirates, part 2 // (( part 1 ))
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Second Verse Same As The First. You will view my equines.
We started with the monster trio, so now introducing the navigator Citrine Compass, Tall Tale the sharpshooter, and the doctor Tony Tony Chopper Citrine Compass (aka Nami) is an incredible navigator, with a special talent in cartography. Her skills for predicting the weather are downright uncanny, a rarity even among pegasi. She's light on her hooves, quick as a flash, and is going to steal your wallet as we speak. Tall Tale (aka Usopp) the earth pony sharpshooter and master storyteller. His mark is meant to represent the more magical aspect of this skill, as his stories are so good, sometimes they just seem to come true! In reality, he does truly have a form of instinctual future sight, and one that manifests in this odd way. (think... pinkie sense.) His heritage lets him get in tune with nature much easier, and lets his skills as a sniper overlap perfectly with his skills as as a botanist. Chopper the reindeer is an odd case indeed. A young member of one of the rarer species found in the world, Chopper is an unfortunate case of a reindeer that never developed magic. Unable to levitate and fly like the rest of his herd, he was simply left behind-- but was fortunately rescued by a kindly doctor. His magic never developed, but he makes the most of it regardless. He's an incredible doctor, and his work in scientific fields across the board has been exceptional. He may paint on a cutiemark to feel more like his friends, but these days, Chopper is more than proud of who he is, and the reindeer he's become.
(Note: I had no idea reindeer existed in mlp! apparently there's a holiday special. The more you know.)

My Little... Pirates? ((Aka I succumb to making a One Piece MLP AU))
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It always starts as a style experiment or practice drawing something new of some sort but tbh there is a darkness within me that is steadily brewing anyways HEY Y'ALL WANT. HEADCANONS? (this took me weeks to finally finish and post)
Introducing the pirate captain Monkey Do, first mate Zephyr Roar , and the fighting-cook Blackhoof Sanji (aka Devil Dancer) Coming up with names is Hard. Let's talk about these fools a little bit, with lots of headcanon to spare. Monkey Do ( aka Monkey D. Luffy) is our earth pony protagonist, and is largely unchanged. His cutiemark is a top down view of his iconic straw hat (or... is it? Some might say it looks a bit like a sun...) and his special talent is leadership. Earthponies are known for many things, and Luffy encompasses those qualities wholly-- he's loyal and strong, and has an endless appetite. an appettite that still contains a frankly concerning amount of meat. This little pony is not a harbivore. Zephyr Roar (aka Roronoa Zoro, or just 'Zoro' as Monkey Do calls him) is a pegasus who's special talent is the self invented three-sword-style. Yes he holds the other two with his wings. No he does not fly. Zoro's a real special guy like that. He largerly perfers to face his enemies on the ground, turning that pegasi speed into pure power. He's mean, he's green, and he thinks dust baths constitute as real bathing. Blackhoof, aka Devil Dancer (Sanji) is a unicorn who's special talent is cooking. His magic gives him a serious wallop in battle, and the old fashioned metal shoes let his superheated kicks pack even more of a punch. His natural magic is fire, and his time on Momoiro helped him learn real levitation, two traits that are just as powerful in the kitchen as they are on the battlefield. For all the stereotypes about unicorns that he breaks, Dancer enforces just as many-- he's prissy, wears fancy clothes, and he even shaves the fluffy fetlocks on his front legs to avoid contaimination while cooking. He's also got a taste for sweet things-- if the lollipop stick in his mouth was any indication. (if he still sounds like the godawful 4kids dub is for you to decide)
That's all I've got to say about these guys for now, and I hope you enjoy--I watched mlp as a kid and now that it's making it's resurgence I feel like I have a weird amount of thoughts about it. Headcanon and lore explanations my beloved. my ask box is always open, feel free to tell me who you'd like to see next. commissions open soon, hopefully

Little Thing
Tumblr media
Calypso, Age 9. Literally just a baby Grew up in the fishman district eating moss off the hulls of sunken ships and being assaulted with telepathic horrors beyond comprehension. Oof. Despite all that, 30 years later and they are remarkably well adjusted. After living so rough as a kid, they still see most of the simple joys in life as exactly that, and will never hesitate to indulge if given the chance. Warm baths, fresh food, and beautiful jewelry? It's all a snail could dream of. ...Oh, and the horrors are now slightly more comprehendable-- at the very least, they've somewhat figured out the off switch. Being mentally wired into every telephone in a region is fun right up until its not. Ah, whatever, you get used to the migraine eventually. For more about Calypso, see the original post here!
(... or their toyhou.se can be found here.)

ALL HAIL THE SNAIL !!! The One, The Only, the ass kicking, wire tapping, telepathic snail pirate-- they're here to eat raw lettuce and bench press ships: EVERYBODY GIVE IT UP FOR CALYPSO!!! ((Booming Crowd Cheer SFX))
Ok to be very for real, this originally started as a complete joke concept... but I've grown to love this character immensely. The first fan character I make in half a decade and it's a One Piece OC. Luckily im not the only one-- I hope to be posting more about the little fan crew me and some good friends have made, with each of us having our own weirdos to flesh out the ranks. For now, a little bit about Cal ! Former member of the Sun Pirates, now set off on their own adventure with a rookie crew, Calypso is a sea snail fishman who serves as a first mate, informant slash tactician, and emergency navigator. Their snail heritage gives them the unique ability to tap into the telepathic frequencies of den den mushi, and their penchant for digging up secrets without explanation has given them quite the reputation as some sort of oracle.... and they're more than fine with not correcting people on it.
For (eventually?) more about Calypso, their toyhou.se page can be found here!

Panel Redraws #1 - Continuation of The Original Dragon Post !
(closeups and an alt under the cut, plus some commentary)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
((alt: the magic of chameleon scales and stupid impressions))
Some classics and faves, redrawn for expression and posing practice! Plus toying around with lineart and shading (or lack of shading) styles.
My asks are always open!! I'm happy to take requests/discuss AU designs for specific characters, do redraws like this, or heck, even straight up drawing requests. So far this has all been wonderful practice after feeling "meh" for awhile.
(and a special thank you to everyone who's been leaving reblogs on the original, it makes me very happy to see the enthusiasm for my silly idea.)

Welcome to the Circus!
Happy episode 1083 and the reveal of the Cross Guild poster-- in celebration, a continutation of the little AU? Design practice...? Thing??? Found Here Mihawk, Buggy, and Crocodile Oh My
Same as before, more images under the cut.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also being real, this sketch of Crocodile is one of my favorite doodles that I've EVER done. Came to me in a vision I love this nasty man a whole lot. If people actually think me scribbling out one piece dragon drawings in my little corner is interesting I'd love to start taking requests?? Panel redraws, designing characters, you name it. My ask box is open and so are the reblogs, know that I read all of them and they make me very very happy :]
