How long is König’s hair when it’s down? I wanna braid it so bad 😔
i think as an adult, konig's hair goes down to a little below his chin. HOWEVER, i hc that his hair was a LOT longer as a teenager.
(go ahead and braid it. god knows he needs the physical affection <3)

Saw your Mishanks bodyswap art! Very cute and fun! (Mihawk with a genuine smile on his face so so fun)
I imagine Shanks whould have trouble fighting in Mihawk's body at first since it's been years since he's had two arms
yes absolutely, i imagine that too! conversely, i think mihawk would have a little bit of trouble adjusting his balance and reach with a body missing one arm, as well. it's interesting to think about how they both would be forced to change their fighting style, and whether or not they would exchange swords.
mihawk's been seen using yoru with just one hand so he could probably pull it off with shanks's body. also interesting to think about shanks tripping up on having two arms until he naturally slips into his old fighting style again--or would he? because there's also the question of muscle memory, right? would mihawk's body automatically do things that shanks isn't predisposed to doing, and vice versa?
the other thing i find intriguing about body swapping in one piece is the question of whether or not your haki powers would switch as well. they say haki is spiritual presence, so presumably your haki switches if your spirits switch, but if it's the kind of spirit that's tethered to the presence of the body? then consider mihawk having the strongest conqueror's haki out on the blues, or shanks being able to use observation haki at mihawk's level, practically being able to predict the future--or mihawk, able to counter with shanks's haki-kill technique. food for thought!

really really super enjoying how the dominion is slowly introduced over the course of season two
first wind we catch of the dominion is via quark when he hears of them through an attempted trade agreement with someone in the gamma quadrant - makes a ton of sense that the first thing we learn is that they are a powerful force in the economics of the gamma quadrant, and it also makes great use of both quark and zek as narrative forces
the second reference to them is when a group of three million refugees make their way through the wormhole - this was also interesting because the group had been essentially farmer serfs to a more powerful species (or maybe just political group? its unclear) on their home planet, and were freed as a side effect of that group being conquered by the dominion. this to me felt like a really interesting second thing we learn; it really underscores the way deep space nine is seeing the ripples of the dominion far far before anything concrete
and then! the third reference! is a man who survived his planet being conquered, and recreated his life via hologram on another world - this episode serving to really put a face to the harm that the dominion has been causing in the gamma quadrant
this all leads up to the season two finale where sisko, quark, nog, and jake encounter a jem'hadar soldier while on their camping trip. SUCH a multilayered approach to introducing the major antagonists of the series, a great slow burn and easily the best execution of this in any star trek in my opinion. deep space nine so perfectly transitioned from episodic to serialized and it blows my mind every time

The whole day I couldn't get rid of the thought of what an older Toki might look like. So here is a little sketch! I'm not good at designing or have ever really drawn a beard, but I wanted to give it a try anyway!
