zolu is maybe one of the easiest ships i've ever liked. they're dating, except when they're not, they're best friends even when they're kissing and they're still captain and first mate when they aren't. they hold hands, they hug. they have sex. they don't.
Luffy can hold Zoro's katanas and Zoro can hold Luffy's strawhat and no one bats an eye. one says "You're so cool!" and the other says "You're strong" and it's just another way to say "I see you, this is why I follow you/this is why I trust you". it's not seeing each other for a long time and still knowing how the other's steps sound like against wood and sand. the captain runs and the first mate follows. it's always "Zoro and the others" and "Where's Luffy?"
if they're just friends, if they're something more, if they don't have a label for it, at its core, it's just about how they get each other. they understand how the other's mind works. however you view them, it doesn't erase they fact that they love each other in a way they don't love other people.

On the string propaganda
Heeellll yeah
Bestie is an entire PLACE
I look at those guys and let me tell you the soul of that thing ain't just in the puppet, it's in all the neurons carrying the thoughts and emotions, it's in the power rails that serve as the heart. All the memories in the memory conflux and all the numbers we see flicker across displays, the flux condensers, the puppet; a little avatar.
No way these massive machines see life the same way we do. They have their own experiences and senses and things they hold dear. A world we can't imagine, a way of living we couldn't even comprehend.
I could never tear an iterator apart to be just a puppet. Who am I to decide how's life supposed to be enjoyed or perceived?
You treat your creechurs however you want- I ain't gonna dictate that. But damn, hearing the thrums and buzzes of the linear systems rail? They are alive with so much power, these mechanical beasts are exactly what they should be.

I keep on seeing people mention how they want to see another Davy Back Fight during the Final Saga, and while I'm 10000% sure we won't see another Davy Back Fight
Unironically
I think a Davy Back Fight between the Strawhats and Cross Guild could be fucking hysterical
Especially because like. Buggy could totally challenge Luffy intentionally, desperately hoping that either Luffy will save HIM from Crocodile and Mihawk, OR that Luffy ends up taking Croc and Hawk into his crew if he wins
(Sidenote, DBF is normally only about exchanging crewmates and stealing pirate flags, but could you imagine if Buggy could demand to have Luffy's copies of the Road Poneglyphs if he won? Hell, I imagine Buggy could probably get away with innitiating the challenge regardless because once it's on, it's on, and surely his men would be so riled up Croc and Hawk would know there'd be no way to stop it anymore even though Buggy's not the true boss. But just to keep Croc and Hawk from trying to murder him on the spot Buggy could maybe suggest taking the Poneglyph copies as if it were a part of his plan from the begining)
And you know if Buggy challenged Luffy into a DBF Luffy might just accept??? Because it could be fun (in Luffy's mind)??? And it could be kind of on-brand for him to jump in on a challenge like that???
And yes
The idea of Luffy winning against Cross Guild in a DBF, resulting in fucking Mihawk and Sir Crocodile joining the Strawhats would be fucking hysterical man, and that alone makes me kinda want it

"UGH it's so stupid of Magdalene Vissagio to want to write Kon as coming out as a trans girl,it's totally ooc and erases Kon's history!"Didn't y'all make a running gag of Kon being so heartbroken over Tim 'choosing Bernard' that they dyed their hair blonde to get him to like them back even though it's canon they're super confident in their looks and also not canon that they see Tim as a romantic option to begin with

most of jesson's roleplays are fueled by PLAGIARISM and i rarely see anybody acknowledge that. they copy ideas from other, popular works of fiction and use them to make their own stories more interesting. and they never give credit lol.

Sort of a rant about tpw fics, no hate intended to anyone. I love all the poppy war fics, this is just to talk about what I would like to see more of
Okay I said it before and I WILL say it again. I'm all for creating what you want, so pls don't take this as judgement, but I want to see more fanwork of tpw characters going crazy/overcome with anger. ESPECIALLY RIN AND KITAY.
Ppl tend to forget just how angry Kitay is in the series, and how he's not just "smart mouth big brain soft boy". Like, he nearly went insane in the series, ffs he killed Niang and burned Rin with a candle. He only has remorse for civilians, none for people he already has beef with.
AND AS FOR RIN, I'm a little disappointed with how many times her rage is played off as "eheh, cute lil tsundere bad at feelings". It's nice, especially in a modern au/no war au, I'm not saying I dislike that sort of thing, it can be very cute if done correctly. But there just isn't much about how genuinely angry she is, how she literally lost her mind. I want to see more of her just being full of actual rage and visceral hurt, and not in the "gentle sobbing" way, in the "screaming at the sun brutal murder tearing the room to shreds" way. I just feel like ppl write her as too calm and gentle sometimes.
IN CONCLUSION, these two are literally tortured to the point of insanity and there's not a lot written about that. THEY DESERVE TO BE MAD, because anger was the only thing keeping them going and it got them into terrible situations too.

an idea i'm throwing out there for anyone lmao
I'm working on another one-shot atm but i was just thinking
and I dont think i've seen something along these lines anywhere? (but if there is a fic or something of this that already exists, i'm begging yall to please throw it my way, i need this in my life)
So we all know how in s1 of rebels with the Lando episode, Kanan and Ezra were being very jealous about Calrissian flirting with Hera and Sabine (and Zeb was very entertained by this). And I would just find it funny if there were something like that, maybe between s3&4, of Lando shamelessly flirting with Kallus (and now both Kanan and Ezra poke fun at Zeb's jealousy). And Zeb gets quite upset over it.
I need this and i need it a thousand different ways please-

I headcanon Medic as bi (leaning a lot to men) and Heavy as gay, and when Medic has a visibly good time hanging out with a woman on the team, Heavy gets jealous but keeps that energy inward, as in he gets angry at himself not at the woman or Medic, like "i can't provide him like the love of a woman" bc Internalized Homophobia. He feels inferior and distances himself from the doctor. And I imagine during some experiment Heavy can't bear this any longer and vents about this issue to him in russian (he understands a bit more than Heavy thinks) and medic looks at him silly in awe and responds in German/Russian how romantic he sounds in his mother language and that he has a big preference for men actually. For one man specifically 👁///👁
