Hey, your hc's of the kid pirates are making me daydreaming!! May I please request some for UK, Pomp and Bubblegum? They appeared in the manga too and look so funny! Thank you🙏🏻

i love how they look. all 3 of them look so iconic and like they could only belong on Kid's crew.

UK:

Ironically he's not from the UK but France

Wire and UK regularly mix up their fishnet clothes with each others

Part of a best friend trio with Pomp and Bubblegum, they help each other do their crazy hairstyles each morning and share a room

Makes very good chocolate cookies

He can also make chocolate

Really awkward around people who aren't the crew, his pet parrot or you

Would loose his mind if you wore anything made of fishnet material

He's frequently called Rooster by the crew

Has a pet parrot named Anarchy

Anarchy prefers you though, for some reason

Was super awkward around you before you started dating, he couldn't speak to you properly and Bubblegum had to translate what he was trying to say

You're not allowed to touch his hair, it takes him too long to get it perfect

Although one time you pulled on his hair during sex and he orgasmed immediately

So he's have an internal argument about the no hair touching rule

Switch but prefers to sub

Only listens to music from YouTube

Can dance the whole Gangam Style routine whilst singing/rapping it (with super stable vocals)

Took fencing lessons and is a world champion fencer

Would risk his life to protect you in battle and wears any scar he gets from protecting you with pride

Massive car fan

Drags you to car shows

Pomp:

Can't stand coffee

He's one of the crew's doctors and a shipwright

Secretly wants you to his makeup in the morning

Was recruited by Killer at the lowest points of his life

He is incredibly grateful to Killer

Can't believe that you've ended up with him and thinks he doesn't deserve you

Gets on very well with Jimbei and Franky

Smokes cigars, sometimes during sex

Prefers when you're on top

Voted the least kinkiest members of the crew

He still has kinks though, the rest of the crew are just freaks

One of the oldest members of the crew and is nicknamed grandfather

Russian and is very good at traditional Russian dancing

Is balding and loosing his hearing (but only in his left ear)

Quincy cannot stand how he dresses

Falls for scam emails and phone calls daily

You have to regularly take his transponder snail away from him to stop the scams from happening

Acts like Dive's grandfather who spoils her

Super good at communication about your relationship and problems he has

Addicted to calling you the more prettiest/handsome person he's ever seen in his life

Bubblegum:

Kpop stan, specially Twice and Got7

Learns kpop dance choreo very easily

Wants to dance duets with you and gets very turned on by it

They're genderfluid

Their hair is naturally like that

Really good friends with Bepo and Penguin from Law's crew

Also good friends with Usopp

If you have breasts, they'll want to suck on them 24/7

Their nickname comes from how they can blow really big bubbles from gum

Has mommy issues

Naturally has a mommy kink, even when they're the dom during sex

Their actual name is something like Brian or Chad but they don't like being called that

Their hair feels like straw if you touch it

Used to be an assassin before they joined the crew

Has a sex playlist but regularly stops mid sex to make you appreciate the songs playing

You've banned the playlist from sexy time

Considers themselves to be one of Dive's best babysitters

Cries to Mitski songs with you

Wasn't allowed to express any 'non-masculine' traits when they were younger so now they like when you do their makeup and help them to rebel against their parents' old rules

OFMD Mixtape

Having gone down the rabbit hole that is OFMD brain rot, and being of GenX, my love note to the show, those who created it, and the wonderful Fandom, is in the form of a mixtape. Er, rather, a playlist.

Music has always been a salve and takes my mind away from all the trauma of the world. This list goes from fun and silly to the most angsty, love sick, heart thumping collection representing mainly Stede and Ed’s character development and romance.

I’m going to break them down episode by episode and you can find all the songs linked here:

Please have mercy on me. I am new to the beautiful world of Fandom (ignore my shoebox full of Star Wars bubble gum cards and my Tardis cookie jar…it took a Pandemic and, well, the current state of the world to bring me to this wonderful collection of people in love with a show. I’m just a girl, standing in front of a show, and obsessively thinking about the beauty of it all.) I’m working some shit out, apparently. My rambling gets longer as I get further in the list.

So, with that, please comment suggested songs you find just as angsty and fitting. I've got room for 50 songs on each side of my cassette.

With Love…

Episode 1

We’re going to start, soft and sweet, with “A Pirate’s Life” by Joel Fry.

Yup, part of the soundtrack for the show. This sea shanty by the talented actor who plays Fenchie perfectly captures the innocent (and ignorant) Stede-view of life as a pirate before reality begins to sink in for Stede and for us all.

”The Empty Boat” by Caetano Veloso is also part of the soundtrack and was a perfect way to end the show after Stede experiences death and bumbles through the pirate captain life. It’s too perfect not to add to the list. Soft and sad, “From the east to the west, Oh, the stream is long, Yes, my dream is wrong, From the birth to the death” captures Stede’s birth as a pirate and death of his former self. His journey begins.

Episode 2

”Lola” by The Kinks introduced me to gender identity and sexuality and acceptance. I was fascinated by this song as a kid. There are so many struggles of identity in this episode and the acceptance that love is love is a big part of the beauty of this show. Olu understands his love of Jim, and Lucius discover’s Jim’s secret and discloses his own history of hiding who he really is. Izzy is sent to meet Stede and the stage is set for an epic love story.

Episode 3

"Fantasy" by Mariah Carey may not seem angsty, but it can be. At the beginning of this Episode Stede is beginning to lean into, in a very Stede way, being a pirate. He’s in love with his image of what a pirate captain is, and struts through the Republic of Pirates in his virginal white frock dragging poor Lucius (identified as decidedly non-virginal with a scarlet baptism). I picture Stede tone deaf to his surroundings and singing along with Carey, “Oh, when you walk by every night, Talkin’ sweet and lookin’ fine, I get kinda hectic inside, Mmm, baby I’m so into you, Darlin’, if you only knew, All the things that flow through my mind” as he sings to his inner Gentleman Pirate. But I like to imagine Blackbeard’s fascination with the Stede he has not yet met, having those very same thoughts, about the Gentleman Pirate.

A shout-out to the sample in Carey’s song of Tom Tom Club's "Genius of Love". “With my boyfriend, my laughing boyfriend, There’s no beginning and there is no end, Feels like I’m dreaming, but I’m not sleeping” Nuff said.

Now we get stabby and properly angsty.

Episode 4

Taylor Swift's "Wonderland" (Wow, that cover looks like it came straight from “Pina Coladas” by the gifted faeeebaeee! Read this if you have not. Be warned, however, faeeebaeee invented angst.) Taylor Swift has not, up to this time, been in rotation at my house. I had heard rumors she wrote a bit angsty, but man, that girl is working some shit out. She and Robert Smith need to collaborate. And thank goodness she did, because this song is perfect for both Ed and Stede. As mid-life-crisis-Ed sits by mid-life-crisis-Stede’s sickbed and nurses him with his eyes, and um, gentle touch, and as Stede awakens to meet a man (a pirate even) who appreciates him for who he is, I can hear Wonderland playing, “Flashing lights and we, Took a wrong turn and we, Fell down a rabbit hole, You held on tight to me, ‘Cause nothing’s as it seems, And spinning out of control…We found Wonderland, You and I got lost in it, And we pretended it could last forever”. That’s it. The only song for this episode. It’s got the lighthouse, it’s got the tension with Izzy, it’s got Ed’s plan to kill Stede and assume Stede’s identity. It’s got Ed’s look, as he walks away from Izzy. It’s got Stede’s fantasy coming to full fruition. Ooooooh, the angst.

Episode 5

"Got Weird" by Dodie

Oh Dodie, Dodie, Dodie, how I do love thee. And really, most of her lyrics come straight out of Ed’s brain, I’m convinced. But this song IS the inner dialogue both Ed and Stede have at different points during this episode in order to navigate dinner with the fancy white racist upper crust weirdos. “Table for two, that’s all sorted, I played the man, and you bought it, We’ll talk over glass, like I own it….So take a deep breath, a big stretch, baby, It’ll feel like a movie (maybe)...A pep talk in a bathroom corner, Do I down the gin, stick to water?”

And really, this song would be great after the actual kiss as well…but as Ed clearly wants to kiss Stede at the end of this episode, you can imagine this being the scenario Ed is worried will take place, “I got weird when we made out, What a goddamn kiss to think about…Clearly, I’ve got shit to figure out, Baby, baby, please don’t hate me, Call me up again, I won’t get weird”.

"Rises the Moon" by Liana Flores

Just perfect. Sweet. Sad, cuz we know what we know now that we’ve watched the whole season more times than we are able to admit to ourselves. (btw-I’m not using the royal we here, I’m talking you and me and you and you and you…we know who we are)

“Days fade into a watercolour blur, Memories swim and haunt you, But look into the lake, shimmering like smoke, Rises the moon”

Episode 6

"I Caught Myself" by Paramore I’ve got two songs by Paramore on my mixtape, and this one is for Ed. It represents his struggle with the Kraken, it represents his struggle with his feelings towards Stede and it represents his struggle with his loyalty to Izzy. It opens, “Down to you, You’re pushing and pulling me down to you, But I don’t know what I, Now when I caught myself, I had to stop myself, I’m saying something that I should have never thought…I’m saying something that I should have never thought of you, of you…But I don’t know what I want, No I don’t know what I want, You got it, you got it, Some kind of magic, Hypnotic, hypnotic, You’re leaving me breathless, I hate this, I hate this” and I should just write out the whole damn song. It’s Ed’s struggle with all the relationships in his life.

"Simply the Best" by Billianne I love this version of the song that I’m sure you’ve heard on TikTok. This song is for the bathtub scene. (I realize there have been many “bathtub scenes” over time. Usually they are disturbing, or creepy, or scary, or romantic. This one is just beautiful.) This is Stede’s heart telling Ed he loves him when he breaks through the door and tells him, “I’m your friend”. Course, Stede doesn’t understand it’s love yet. And it’s Ed being completely and brutally honest with Stede, and the way his cheek leans on Stede’s hand…my heart is breaking a little…again.

“I call you when I need you, my heart’s on fire, You come to me, come to me wild and wild, When you come to me, Give me everything I need…Take my heart and make it strong, baby, You’re simply the best, Better than all the rest, Better than anyone, Anyone I’ve ever met, I’m stuck on your heart, I hang on every word you say, Tear us apart, Baby, I would rather be dead”.

Episode 7

"Seven" by Taylor Swift

Yes, I get the hype over Taylor Swift now. What a beautiful song, and for my angsty purposes here, it kills two sets of love birds with one stone so to speak (apologies to Carl).

This song references childhood trauma and we certainly explore Jim’s trauma in their life as a child as well as just having learned about Ed’s dad in the previous episode. Swift sings, “And I’ve been meaning to tell you, I think your house is haunted, Your dad is always mad and that must be why, And I think you should come live with, Me and we can be pirates, Then you won’t have to cry, Or hide in the closet”. How perfect is that?

But the love, too, and this episode ends with love, the near kiss with Olu and Jim, the stuck snake snack scene. “Our love will be passed on”

And there’s one little line in the song that feels like it is foretelling events, “I still got love for you, Pack your dolls and a sweater, We’ll move to India forever…Our love lasts so long.”

"Absolutely Smitten" by Dodie This song captures the joy of the back-and-forth silly banter about Blackbeard’s Bar and Grill and Other Delacacies and Delights and Fishing Equipment scene…it’s got the giddy first love feels all over it.

“She feels her heart begin to swell, Handsome stranger, you have made her insides turn to jelly, She wants to dance around the room, Kiss you until her lips turn blue…She’s absolutely smitten, She’ll never let you go”.

Episode 8

"Hate Myself" by Dodie We are now seriously circling the angsty drain of sadness my friends. So buckle up, more songs to cover the last 3 episodes. This song could be playing in both Stede and Ed’s minds while Calico Jack is wrecking havoc. Ed self-doubting and sabotaging his relationship with Stede. Stede horribly confused by his own feelings towards Ed, towards Jack, and desperate to have his Ed back.

“Could it be different? Did I ruin the day? Oh, do you look angry? Oh, what did I say? Filling in the gaps, something wrong with me, I’m getting desperate, losing my mind…When you go quiet, I hate myself”

"Dreaming With A Broken Heart" by John Mayer Again, a song for both Stede and Ed. Ed has gone off with Jack and I imagine this song has been playing in Stede’s mind all night. He’s put the song on replay all night long and his red-rimmed eyes say he didn’t sleep a wink (I won’t say 17-year-old-me may have put The Cure’s “Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me” album on replay all night after her little heart got broken-she feels you, Stede). Ed, waking up, face in the sand, could have the same song playing.

“When you’re dreaming with a broken heart, The waking up is the hardest part, You roll out of bed and down on your knees, And for a moment, you can hardly breathe, Wondering, ‘Was she really here?, Is she standing in my room?’, No she’s not, ‘Cause she’s gone, gone, gone, gone, gone”

"S.O.S." by ABBA You know what, Stede? You would feel so much better if you just came to my house and we came up with a roller skating routine to this song from a record my mom just got. We can practice in the basement and later, we can put on a show!

“Where are those happy days, They seem so hard to find, I try to reach for you, But you have closed your mind, Whatever happened to our love?, I wish I understood, It used to be so nice, It used to be so good, So when you’re near me, Darling, can’t you hear me, S.O.S., The love you gave me, Nothing can save me, S.O.S., When you’re gone, How can I even try to go on? (oh good lord, every lyric in this song is so perfect…and Rhys Darby learned morse code in the NZ military, so, S.O.S.) When you’re gone, Thought I try, how can I carry on?, You seemed so far away, Though you were standing near, You made me feel alive, But something died, I fear…” Every. Word. Is. Perfect.

"The Chain" by Fleetwood Mac After the first time I watched this episode, I had to replay this scene again and again. It was like watching a perfect music video on MTV’s 120 Minutes circa 1990. And really, the more I watched, the more I was convinced this is really Izzy’s song about Ed. So sad, for Izzy.

“Listen to the wind blow, watch the sun rise, Running in the shadows, damn your love, damn your lies, And if you don’t love me now, You will never love me again, I can still hear you saying, You would never break the chain”

******foot touch****** My heart.

Episode 9

"Sparks" by Coldplay Boy are Ed and Stede in their own heads at the beginning of this episode. Stede is shaken by the news he is “dead” and the old guilt about Mary and the children begins to seep back in. Stede tries to re-kindle the adventure dynamic that made him and Ed so happy, but Ed is floating through the up-ending of his life whilst folding stuff, and that’s OK. Ed has made a huge sacrifice to save Stede and he’s promising, in his own way, to be there for him, no matter what. This melancholy song could, once again, fit both our favorite pirates.

“Did I drive you away?, I know what you’ll say, You say, ‘Oh sing one we know’, But I promise you this, I’ll always look out for you…My heart is yours, It’s you that I hold on to…I know I was wrong, But I won’t let you down…”

"Like Real People Do" by Hozier Oh the kiss. Oh the kiss. Oh the kiss. I understand that Hozier wrote the song imagining a romance from one of the well preserved bog bodies pulled from a peat bog in Ireland and a live human, but Ed and Stede both consider themselves monsters of a sort, so, voila! This is a beautiful song, and the lyrics really do fit the kiss.

“I had a thought, dear, However scary, About that night…I will not ask you where you came from, I will not ask you, neither should you, Honey just put your sweet lips on my lips, We should just kiss like real people do”

"Pink in the Night" by Mitski This is all Ed on the pier, my babies. “Perfect Day” by Lou Reed is beautiful too, but this feels more fitting (also, fun fact, no heroine). He’s given up everything to save Stede and now he’s flayed his heart open for the man and there he sits in the lavender sunset.

“I glow pink in the night in my room, I’ve been blossoming alone over you, And I hear my heart breaking tonight, I hear my heart breaking tonight…I love you, I love you, I love you…and I know I’ve kissed you before, but I didn’t do it right, Can I try again, and again, and again…”

"Two Birds" by Regina Spektor

“Two birds on a wire, One tries to fly away, And the other watches him close from that wire, He says he wants to as well, But he is a liar”

Poor Ed. Poor Stede. Screw you Chauncey.

Episode 10

"Stop This Train" by John Mayer Can’t listen too carefully to this one, but the sentiment is spot on. Stede, middle aged and caught between his family and his *still can’t quite understand he is in love* Ed, thrown back into his old mindset by the bullying of Chauncey and Chauncey’s subsequent violent death, flees home. Life is moving too quickly for him and he returns home, thinking there will be a solution. Well, there is, I suppose. But the consequences…oh, Ed.

“No, I’m not colorblind, I know the world is black and white, I try to keep an open mind, But I just can’t sleep on this tonight, Stop this train, I want to get off and go home again, I can’t take the speed it’s moving in, I know I can’t, But honestly, won’t someone stop this train?”

Meanwhile, consequences…

To quote Buttons, the next songs are just going to be pure tone…

ED:

"Shallows" by Daughter

“Let the water rise, Let the ground crack, Let me fall inside, Lying on my back, Lying on my back, Dry your smoke-stung eyes, So you can see the light, Staring at the sky, Watching Stars collide, Watching stars, If you leave, When I go, Find me, In the shallows”

"Where Is My Mind" covered by Maxence Cyrin- instrumental only

"Where Is My Mind?" by the Pixies

“Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Way out in the water, See it swimming, I was swimming in the Caribbean…Bump into me, swear he’s, Tryin’ a talk to me, say wait, wait…”

"Avalanche" by Leonard Cohen

“You who wish to conquer pain, You must learn what makes me kind, The crumbs of love that you offer me, They’re the crumbs I’ve left behind, Your pain is no credential here, It’s just the shadow, shadow of my wound, I have begun to long for you, I who have no greed, I have begun to ask for you, I who have no need, You say you’ve gone away from me, But I can feel you when you breathe”

"Monster" by Dodie

“Tell me again, About how it hurts, Being awfully loud, For an introvert, Get out of my room, Smile wiped clean, Isn’t it weird, To be so mean?, I’m guessing that I’ve grown horns, I guess I’m human no more, Oh, how easily passion twists, You think I’m a crazy bitch, I craft my words to fit your head, ‘Cause no one listens to the dead, So maybe I will talk to you, The only way I know how to, I’ve said my speech, Through sharpened teeth, You break the rules and spikes grow from your skin, Please, let the devil in”

STEDE:

"Strange" by Celeste

“Say isn’t it strange? Isn’t it strange? I am still me, You are still you, In the same place, Isn’t it strange, How people can change, From strangers to friends, Friends into lovers, And strangers again?”

"The Night We Met" by Lord Huron

“I am not the only traveler, Who has not repaid his debt, I’ve been searching for a trail to follow again, Take me back to the night we met, And then I can tell myself, What the hell I’m supposed to do, And then I can tell myself, Not to ride along with you, I had all and then most of you, Some and now none of you, Take me back to the night we met, I don’t know what I’m supposed to do, Haunted by the ghost of you, Oh, take me back to the night we met”

"All I Wanted" by Paramore

“Think of me when you’re out, when you’re out there, I’ll beg you nice from my knees…All I wanted was you, All I wanted was you, I think I’ll pace my apartment a few times, And fall asleep on the couch, Wake up early to black and white re-runs, That escaped from my mouth, All I wanted was you…I could follow you to the beginning, And just to relive the start, And maybe then we’ll remember to slow down, At all of our favorite parts, All I wanted was you”

"Ready Now" by Dodie

“You saw through me, All this time, I’d forgotten, People are kind, I was hurting, And you knew, So you showed me, What to do, You said, ‘I will listen, Tell it all, When you’re finished, We’ll talk more’, But I didn’t know how, So we took it in turns, And to my surprise, We found my words, Feet firm on the ground, We stood hand in hand, The world seemed to tell me, That I have a plan, Together, we sang, ‘I’m ready, now’”

I’m hoping that last song by Dodie ends up on my next mixtape for Ed…

And the last song leaves us all dangling over the side of the Revenge, preferably offering Lucius a hand up and into a secret compartment while Stede finds his footing on the water and Ed watches Frenchie hoist his new flag…

"Miles From Nowhere" by Yusuf/Cat Stevens

“Miles from nowhere, Guess I’ll take my time, Oh yeah, to reach there, Look up at the mountain, I have to climb, Oh yeah, to reach there…I creep through the valleys, And I grope through the woods, ‘Cause I know when I find it, my honey, It’s gonna make me feel good, I love everything, So don’t it make you feel sad, ‘Cause I’ll drink to you, my baby, I’ll think to that, yes, I’ll think to that”

Points Not To Provide When Going In order to Singapore

Singapore is really a vast, exciting city to explore and is definitely among the most-visited metropolitan areas of Asia. But for travelers planning a be in the Garden City, there are some interesting and significant facts to know before flying straight into Changi Airport. If people go anywhere new, they are usually happiest concerning what new and even exotic things they can bring home. Whenever you're off to Singapore, however , you'll need to always be aware of some points you can't deliver In the country. 1st and foremost are generally drugs - no longer even think about bringing any intended for your stay, because the country features incredibly strict medicine laws and even so provides a death fees for traffickers. It is also a new criminal offense to be able to have any medication in your system, even if it was not eaten in the tropical isle nation. There are generally cases of randomly urine tests appropriate inside the airport. Sometimes poppy seeds, due to the fact they may include trace numbers of morphine, are banned throughout the country. Porn material is likewise something an individual shouldn't be taking to Singapore in any way, shape or kind. Pirated DVDs and even CDs will enable you to get quite an okay, sometimes up to be able to $1000. Some video games have in addition been banned, generally for violent content, and there will be an extensive method for rating and approving foreign motion pictures. More interesting no-bring items include over head wires, satellite food, freestanding billboards, doll walkie-talkies, gun-shaped cigarette lighters, and virtually any type of handcuffs. Singapore also offers a history of a few censorship, including banning songs that include content deemed inappropriate. A memorable instance of this could be the banning of 1963's "Puff the Secret Dragon, " although lately, Katy Perry's "I Kissed a new Girl (and My partner and i Liked It)" was not allowed on airwaves either. All Jehovah's Witness and Concentration Church publications are also banned. Surprisingly enough, chewing The Random Singaporean is still technically illegal in Singapore, even though customs officials generally won't make the fuss about a package or two. Bubble gum was banned in 1992 after increasing problems with littering and even issues with the sticky element causing delays upon the new MRT train system. By 2004, you could now bring "therapeutic" gum, like teeth-whitening gum or periodontal to help stop smoking, as long as you've got a new note from your pharmacist. If you consider to bring a retail-size quality, my partner and i. e. a medium-sized box, there is definitely a chance of getting strike by having an one-year stay in prison. One more thing to bear in mind if you kids in tow is that will quite a very few Singaporean restaurants, still casual and mid-range eateries, have prohibited children under thirteen. It's probably some sort of good idea to call ahead and even look into the child policy in case you are planning in order to eat any place in particular. Durian, the once nasty-smelling fruit found across a lot of Asia, is also prohibited on public transport in Singapore. Almost all tourists will almost certainly feel great regarding that rule in the event that they've ever smelled a durian.

thought up another AU the other day, here it is copy+pasted from twitter so it’s pretty disjointed haha

o yeah kinda had another AU idea bubbling in my head where luffy is like... weird god/guardian deity of some kind who escapes his domain (dawn island) to go on an adventure since he had been stagnating in the mountains. his strength grows the more people know/believe in him

garp's family watched over his shrine, and as a spirit he played with ace and sabo in the mountains. nobody outside dawn island knows that he is supernatural in origin, and assume his promises to fulfill dreams is just as a human and not as a god lol

When Shanks first visits Dawn Island, Makino recommends that he go visit the shrine (it's a lovely place and it's just polite to pay respects to the island's local deity), and it's there he meets Luffy, a strange little boy with eyes that seem to see just a little Too Much.

Shanks, at first, assumes Luffy is a village boy playing in the mountains and treats him as such even after Luffy demands him to tell him stories of his travels because he was bored. It's not until he goes back to the bar and tells Makino about Luffy that he finds out the truth

Shanks is the one who plants the idea in Luffy's head that if he was bored, he should try leaving the island, something that had never seemed possible to him before. He's a forest god, he doesn't belong on the sea, but the first time in a long time, he desires an impossibility

The gum gum fruit and straw hat are 2 offerings/gifts from Shanks to Luffy. Shanks doesn't fully understand the significance of such things to Luffy, only giving Luffy the hat as a promise to one day meet him on the ocean.

The fruit he at least knows is a proper gift for a god that he can, amazingly, call a friend. His crew calls him mad for giving it away to some backwater shrine, but Shanks can feel it in his bones that this is the best use for the fruit he could ever hope to find.

to Luffy, these were powerful offerings, one a rare fruit and the other a hat steeped in great history. These were the kind of things that let gods grow and could give him the strength he'd need to break free of the island's confines.

i think luffy would leave with ace when he turns 17... maybe some timeline tweaking where they can still gather all the strawhat crew along with ace's haha

Luffy's blessing grants protection in forests. Those blessed will never lose their way in woods, and will always be able be able to find shelter, water, and food with ease. Forest creatures won't attack unless fully provoked either.

Luffy meets Ace and Sabo much earlier in their lives. Ace, who was raised in the mountains, has always been aware of Luffy's presence but doesn't meet him proper until he's around 5 and thrown into the mountains alone by Garp for training.

Luffy's appearance is that of a 10 year old boy, so in this AU he could be considered Ace's older brother, but his spirit is perpetually childish and he doesn't age (simply changes his appearance as needed) so Ace kinda becomes the older brother in spirit lol

Tho Ace was aware of something not exactly human living in the mountains, and had heard Garp telling him about the shrine his family took care of, and expected Ace to help with (which he refused), he does not connect that being with Luffy for quite a while.

Like Shanks had, Ace assumes Luffy is a village boy too encroaching on his mountain home. Ace also asks Luffy The Question - what does he think of Gold Roger having a kid. To which Luffy replied, Who's Roger? Ace isn't sure how to respond to that. Did this kid live under a rock?

Ace tries to explain he's the Pirate King and considered the Devil by most people, but Luffy just frowns and says HE'S never heard of a devil named Gold Roger before, so he must not be much of a devil. Ace is confused and dumbfounded by Luffy's replies

what the hell does Luffy know about devils? Luffy responds far too casually that he's met and talked to a decent amount of them throughout his life. Ace ends up exploding and yelling if he knew so much about devils, then how could he not tell Ace was the son of one.

Luffy grows very quiet at this question and walks close to Ace, and stares him down with a look that freezes Ace's soul. The moment seems to stretch for an eternity and he has never felt smaller in his entire life.

The moment passes when Luffy breaks eye contact and hums as he says that nope, Ace was definitely human like everyone else around. Not a speck of a devil in him. Luffy has no proof, but the way he says it tells Ace that it is the truth, and the comfort it brings is indescribable.

Luffy grows weaker the longer he is out at sea or forced to stay somewhere without trees. Though it had not been Nami's intent to help him with her mikan trees, the grove becomes a source power for him and the only thing balancing out the ocean sapping away his strength

Luffy manages to escape the island with Ace's help by having Ace carve a small portable shrine for him. It becomes a new tether for him and so long as Ace can keep it safe, Luffy can stay by his side. Luffy becomes much weaker away from his central shrine however.

Luffy adopts the name Monkey D. Luffy because it is Garp and Dragon's name. Luffy does not have the Will of D, but he doesn't exactly need it as a divine being.

hi it’s me... clicks across the linoleum of the dash wearing high heels w a spray tan like i’m a member of jersey shore suddenly..... best summary of willa is that she got moira rose as her #1 chara on a What Character Are You Most Like personality test out of thousands of options.... says so much. u can find her pinterest here n her playlist here 😋 like this or hmu fr plots!!

* ashley moore, cis female + she/her | you know willa deneurve, right? they’re twenty-four, and they’ve lived in irving for, like, most of her life, on and off? well, their spotify wrapped says they listened to watch me by the pom poms like, a million times this year, which makes sense ‘cause they’ve got that whole sticking gold stars over old polaroids until you can barely see faces, dressing as marie antoinette at your high school prom & delivering fake laughter to a bratz doll you’re pretending is a talkshow host thing going on. i just checked and their birthday is august 1st, so they’re a leo, which is unsurprising, all things considered. ( nai, 24, gmt, she/her )

HISTORY:

willa ws born to honestly like….. the perfect family not to honk my own tit bt……………. they were jst rly quite wholesome. her mum celeste was this larger than life person who could never b contained by the four walls of any room she was in. she hd the presence of a gold glitter chess piece on an otherwise mundane wooden board. her dad marlon used to always joke that he had absolutely NO idea how he landed her bc he was just this like. rly average guy by all accounts n purposes….. blended into the sea in high skl……. had a few close friends but was never rly Notable or made a proper impression anywhere…… he always retold it as him coasting thru life until he met her in college. kind of like he’d been half awake before. they just Clicked n no-one cld believe she’d chosen him bt she was jst. completely head over heels n didn’t care what anyone had to say bc that was That

willa always very much took after celeste…… there’s this one quote i remember reading that goes vaguely like “my mom and i would sit and listen to leonard cohen and joni mitchell lyrics together. from a young age i remember her being like "i’m playing this song and when it’s done i want u to tell me what’s happening in it” n she would give me a fake glass of wine when i was 8 and i would listen and b like. i think there was an affair.” which so much summarises their dynamic…… she ws just so like. dramatic n fun n always encouraged that in willa too. her mum was like. everything she aspired to be…… got scouted by a modelling agency in college n shot one campaign before blowing it off simply bc she was bored. starred lead in a play. spent a few weeks travelling asia selling handmade candles shaped like koi fish or curled up foxes or elegantly stretched hands. dated a parisian movie star during a break she and her father took n was featured in tabloids on his arm at the premiere. sm fun n exotic stories willa literally cldn’t get enough. whenever she’d tell them to willa as a kid her dad wld roll his eyes like ohhhhh here she goes again but it’d all b playful n he’d smile bc he honestly cldn’t get enough either. the stuff dreams are made of luv (lizzie mcguire stans rise)

(car accident & death tw) so u know when ur walking down a flight of stairs n then out of nowhere u miss a step n u get that lurch in ur stomach like ur in free fall? yeah. i won’t go into it too much but one night they were driving back from getting frozen yogurt and then suddenly they weren’t. she doesn’t rly remember much about it except for completely ignoring the doctors trying to give her the news and just saying “dad chose pecan. who chooses pecan?” n repeating that over n over n over until it didn’t rly register in her ears as english any more.

willa was uprooted from irving at 11 to go n live w her aunt in NY. this was like. a huge adjustment honestly….. her aunt blanche hd always been a little unconventional bt extremely glamorous. she lived in an old defunct theatre she’d bought out n came from a lot of money. willa’s mum’s side of the family hd always been well off bt celeste opted to live a little more Ordinarily shall we say after settling whereas blanche ws jst balls to the walls dripping w eccentric excess…. wld say she was never naked bc she ws always wearing black opium by yves saint laurent…… probably the living embodiment of la vie boheme….. she’d been admitted a yr early to a rly prestigious parisian design school n is an AMAZING seamstress. a corset she stitched a broadway star into got commissioned fr an actress’ red carpet walk at an indie film festival. rly just lived such a life rich w lots of stories n lots of talent too…… had that star quality essence tht her mum had n that was smthn willa found quite comforting everything considered.

(grief tw) u would think maybe a situation like this (one involving so much sudden change) wld cause a kid of tht age to withdraw into her shell bt willa only came out of her shell MORE. she coped w her situation by spinning it into a celebrity origin story inside her head. the tear jerker tale someone tells during their x factor audition to get the judges rooting for them. mentally streamlining things. repackaging all that hurt as a surefire ticket to success bc it had to be useful for something right? there had to b a point to it right? willa decided the point was she’s a star. KFHSGKFHGFKHGKJSFHG. get it girl….. she ws literally just like ok well clearly i’m destined to be famous n i’m the main character of this story. this story called earth. it’s all about me.

rly heavily immersed herself in her high skl theatre scene……. loved experimenting w fashion n literally wore the most outlandish things like. she treated the hallways like her milan f/w debut every new school yr…… a lot of the things she wore were actual like. costumes frm her aunt’s collection…… she has a multi-story closet u have to climb ladders to reach things in like a very rustic library…. it rly wasn’t uncommon for willa to turn up one day corsetted like a pirate with billowing sleeves or sporting the baby blue gingham of a swedish milk maid. it’s like she literally jst…… became a role. always. every day. the world ws her stage. the cameras were always rolling. her aunt only encouraged this tbh n honestly? icon. we love to see it. willa partied a bunch n rly lived a lax lifestyle where responsibility was concerned…. her aunt ws her best friend…… made rly gd friends with performers in the drag club scene n loved the glitz of that….. lots of wild nights turned grossly bright mornings

snagged an agent fresh into her first yr of college (she gt accepted to a pretty competitive theatre program at [redacted] in NY bc i haven’t looked into what that wld be yet <3 i’m merely a helpless british lass <3) n booked a few commercials n things….. when i say willa wld enter audition rooms like she owned the place i’m rly not exaggerating…. once she turned up to a casting call for MEN n just walked right to the front of the line scraping a random chair along the way n then took a seat w her legs crossed popping a bubble in her gum as they all glared at her like wtf is literally going on who are u. she received several complaints n she was just like “ur all acting so jealous of me….”

i feel like she got a pretty big role in a theatre production in her last yr at school. haven’t decided what yet. maybe smthn rocky horror or even mimi in rent. this was meant to b some like huge moment for willa like yes girl finally making it ur on ur way this is what u wanted n she WAS happy abt it but once it was wrapped she jst had this strange like Huh feeling in her chest……. n a la celeste w all her exciting stories was just like well i’ve done that so what’s next? i think she’d graduate n then jst suddenly decide to move to irving in a fit of impulse. to all her college friends she’d be like “ugh a beach retreat is so necessary honestly the city is sooooooooo toxic this place cld literally enlarge my pores if i wasn’t so rigorous with my skincare routine” bt like 🤔 what u seeking girl? results pending.

SO basically i feel like she finally moved back to irving little over a yr ago. she hd a brief stint starring on a reality tv show tht filmed in one of the larger beach houses where her dog gained a handful of fan accounts dedicated to him……. u maybe will see why in the first bullet point of her personality section………… FKGHKSHFGGKFSHKHG. honestly she ws received pretty well too (mostly bc she’s so fking dramatic n like a caricature of a person) bt it wasn’t anything to warrant actual Fame (despite what willa herself might think). she’s mostly jst like. chilling honestly. accepting scripts n flying out fr auditions still. she’ll nab the occasional part bt she’s looking for that One Thing that rly feels like her big moment….. otherwise i cn just imagine her treating irving like a little dollhouse compared to the roaring mansion of NYC n having fun playing around in it. strikes a pose w a hand on my hip…. and now to personality.

PERSONALITY:

got a very large n lithe greyhound n named him marlene dietrich bc she was a black n white hollywood starlet famously known for her affairs n “bedroom eyes”. willa was like ugh. icon status instantly. didn’t rly foresee the responsibilities tht came w owning a dog tht loves exercise n complains abt him being like “ugh he wants to run soooooooooo much 🙄 like where are u literally going”. having said tht loves him dearly n he can often be seen wearing little clothes. a baby’s bonnet. a quilted leather waistcoat. a custom dog boa. he’s very glamorous. willa calls him a gay icon despite no evidence to support this theory. she also says he can sniff out evil in ppl so she brings him sometimes when she’s first introduced to a friend’s new bf n if his nose quivers a certain way she’s like “marlene has spoken. it’s done”. her friends r like omg? what’s done? willa gets up n walks away without elaborating. marlene’s little paws clicking along the floor w attitude.

literally dressed as marie antoinette for her high skl prom even tho there was no theme pertaining to this. jst loves the spotlight. can fake cry and WILL to get out of a parking ticket or teach someone to watch their tone or even simply for the theatrics of it all. the Most dramatic………….. rly fits being an actress like when people find out what she does it’s very like oh that makes sense.

says she doesn’t get hangovers. she’s just like “i revoked that it doesn’t happen to me”. alludes tht this is bc she’s an all powerful deity that was Chosen to be Blessed bt really she’s jst great at bouncing back n acting fine even w a blistering headache. it’s about believing the performance so much that u even convince urself.

has an extremely elevated sense of self importance bc this is kind of the equivalent of several layers of bubble wrap to cushion her frm the world. strives to b extraordinary bc ordinary honestly feels like a death sentence n there’s nothing she’d want to b seen as less. despite this weight she puts on that she rly doesn’t tend to let ppl’s opinions affect fr the most part like she’s quite firmly set in this I’m Literally The Most Gorgeous And Beautiful Angel Star Creature To Walk This Narsty Little Earth view

probably an incredibly big fan of dramatic short lived love affairs. she wants the glamour of it all. the scandal. the randomly breaking up w someone in a public place n sliding on sunglasses after delivering the words over a freshly ordered coffee (tht she’ll leave without drinking bc that’s star power babey she waits fr no man or no hot beverage)…….. has no preference gets w any n all regardless of gender……… romanticises things so they hv a better spin or story in her head n doesn’t rly take things seriously like jst has fun in her fantasy world…. she’s like ugh chuck i know u wanted to marry me but i’m a beautiful bird in a cage n u literally need to undo the latch n set me free……. the guy’s like……. my name’s chase n we’ve only been on two dates….. willa’s like…… please don’t take this so hard i can tell ur besides urself but people r starting to stare……. gets up n leaves. no-one was staring. chase is confused n honestly probably semi concerned fr her welfare.

always has to b the hottest n most glamorous person in a grocery store…. probably goes to them when she doesn’t even need anything jst holding a basket nonchalantly over her forearm glancing over at a cashier in her wizard of oz corset seamed interpretation on a dorothy dress thinking he wants me soooo bad it’s not even funny….. seduces him over the check out counter jst for him to ask her to come back to his so she can lean back scandalised n cry “IS THAT THE KIND OF WOMAN U THINK I AM, PAUL?! YOU’RE A GHASTLY LITTLE MAN, YOU ARE….” with all the gusto of a telenovela. attracts the shocked glances of all surrounding elderly.

speaks fluent french. probably on her brief stint on tht reality show i mentioned earlier was like “ugh can you believe Deneurve of this guy?” n in her head was like this catchphrase is sensational it’ll catch on fast the twittersphere is abt to implode but it didn’t become a thing except for in a small isolated community. despite this she’s like “yeah it went viral….. go figure. just another day in the life.”

honestly like a lot of fun bt also a huge handful at the same time. keeps her real Serious emotions in a locked box bt is always overflowing w melodramatics n rly giving her all at the drop of a hat where Performing is concerned. probably Loves parties n sees them as another form of production in which she wants to b the lead. rly just. loves herself. except does she? 🤔 lifts my hand up like rihanna n winks. find out next time. lucky by britney plays as i slowly disintegrate in spiderman rp…..

WANTED CONNECTIONS

unrequited flame: willa burns thru people like matches. bright n fast. honestly i feel like she struggles to take romance seriously so it cld be fun to play around with someone who’s been singed by that in the past…. mayb they hd actual feelings whereas willa was just messing around n having fun…. living la vida loca so to speak…….. we can discuss a time frame or specifics to expand upon this but. sexy angst perhaps.

those she knew from childhood: willa moved to NY at 11 n i feel like it was very sudden n soon after the accident. maybe she didn’t even say goodbye. maybe they were rly close n all of a sudden she didn’t show up to school the next day n when they rode past her house on their bike the sign said sold and that was that. honestly very dramatic of her even at a young age. we love a disappearing act. houdini who?

acting rival: honestly jst feel like this cld be funny. willa’s so dramatic she’d be like i literally want them dead they’re a despicable little gremlin fr trying to steal my spotlight. cld be as simple as having auditioned a few times fr the same parts or something.

childhood sweetheart: i think it cld be rly cute n sad if there was someone that kind of echoed the dynamic her mum n dad had except she was the celeste n they were the marlon…. (open to any gender)…….. so like. willa was always very larger than life commanding attention in a room n they were more to the sidelines but they just kind of got each other n brought out the best in one another. added angst to the fact tht willa wld maybe want to avoid them as much as possible now bc it dredges up feelings she doesn’t want to confront where her parents r concerned n also in a way any possibility of them winding up together feels like sellotaping an expiration date to both of their foreheads in willa’s brain

someone who was either a fan of or also on the reality show willa was: i imagine it like a reinvention of the hills honestly except based in these irving beach houses…. probably didn’t run that long bt there was a bunch of drama on it mostly staged…… maybe they were willa’s love interest bt it was all fake fr the cameras…… it wasn’t like. a huge deal n didn’t rly catch flight so much where popularity’s concerned bt. cld be fun to play with <3

patti frands: jogs in high knees to translate that into party friends as i adjust my spectacles. willa’s very sociable bt she’s also like kind of full of herself n obnoxious so do with that what u will. KFHGKSHGKGHFSKG. she knows hw to have a gd time tho like growing up she was rly into the gay club scene n the drag scene in NY so like. let’s hear it fr the gays who know how to do it right <3

someone equally over the top: i luv the idea of willa having someone who just like runs with made up scenarios n roles she makes up on the spot n them hanging out is like a 24/7 improv session tht they reel random surrounding strangers just fr the fun thrill

the other woman: willa is quite detached n selfish so she wld easily be the other woman in a relationship n not care about it n this cld make for good spice <3

#irvingintro #death tw #car accident tw #grief tw #i think tht's all of them #smiles at u all w hand on hip #this intro's so beefy bt wht else is new truly just can't control myself apparently... shocked. aghast. shaken.

💖🌺

💖 something you love about yourself?

I love how much I love my friends. I adore my friends, they keep me going, and I hope they know how much I love them.

Physically? I love my nose. I used to hate my nose, but I've grown to love this beak

🌺 describe your aesthetic (even if it’s just what you’re wearing now)

A mix between being a weird goth kid who isn't trying hard enough to look goth. And vintage lad. I had a coworker once describe my clothing aesthetic as (and I'm quoting him directly) "Sexy librarian archeologist techno bubble gum punk rocker anime pirate"

I dress in vintage a lot also.

#lozeyasktag #thank you Turtle my darling love!#Kisses you

DJ Jones Quotes

AJ figured out early on that taking the kids to the park was the perfect way to make them tire themselves out. Rain easy to find at the monkey bars, Dusk and Dawn played a game of chess with giant pieces across the marked up basketball court, and DJ-

Wait, where was Dante? The sound of kids rioting caught AJ's attention and he turned his head to where they were gathered in a growing circle. A fight had broken out and he saw the tale tell pirate coat flapping in the center of it all. "DJ!" he shouted as he ran to separate his son from the child he was throttling.

"Spit on my boots again and I'll make you EAT THEM!" Dante shouted as his father carried him away. "Laces, sole and ALL!"

---

"Oi!"

Turq turned around and looked down at the small pirate child. The boy was sizing him up despite the obvious height difference but he wasn't the least bit threatening. Turq lifted an eyebrow. "Can I help you?"

"Yeah." Dante pointed behind him with his thumb. "You gotta go, mate."

"...what?"

"Go. Leave. Zǒu kāi. Savvy?"

Last time Turq checked, this was Astro's kingdom. Not his nephew's. He crossed his arms and furrowed his eyebrows. "Why?"

Dante sighed as if the answer was obvious. "Listen. You're cool. Everyone knows that. But I'm wearing my best coat and no one is noticing because you're hogging all the attention. So if you could just disappear for, I don't know, ten minutes? You'd be doing me a solid."

Turquoise shrugged and walked past him. "Okay."

Dante turned after him with wide eyes. "Wait, for real? Just like that?"

"Yeah. I needed a breather anyway," Turq sighed, glad to have a reason to be away from attention. "Nice coat by the way. See ya round, kid."

"Huh...see ya." Dante watched him turn down the hall and then popped the collar of his coat with pride. The coolest guy around said that he liked his coat...he knew he made the right choice of wearing it today.

---

Dante could tell when his sister was upset, but then again it was obvious when she was sitting still and not bouncing off the walls. Rain laid flat on the floor frowned at the ceiling.

He knelt down and poked her foot. "You okay, Rain? Do I need to beat someone up for you?"

"No..." she sighed. "Just having a sad person party..."

Dante sat on the floor and set Cannonball in his lap. He placed his hands on the ball and closed his eyes in focus. Thinking of something that would cheer her up a little. "What's a party without confetti?"

The red ball starting moving fluidly as liquid and morphed into a horde of bubbles. He pointed and they floated over Rain's face, and one by one the bubbles popped and sprinkled confetti all over her. Rain giggled and blew at the piece that landed on her nose. "Why does it smell like rubber?"

Dante hummed. "Oh yeah. I can never get that part right."

---

"Another fight?"

Dante looked down at his feet to hide his busted lip and frowned. "Maybe..."

Nia smiled as she tilted up his chin and healed his lip effortlessly. He always came to her after fights such as these because he was too embarrassed to go to anyone else. "I bet the other guy looks worse," she smirked. "You gave him the left hook?"

"And the right hook!" Dante grinned, revealing a missing tooth and gums still bleeding from it.

"That's my little pirate warrior!" Nia held up her hands and he jumped to high five both of them. "Now go wash up and tell everyone all hands on deck for dinner!"

"Aye aye!" Dante saluted her and ran out with a wide grin on his face.

Legend of the Crystal Skull Review:

SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!!!

Atmosphere/Layout:

I loved this game so much! The Nancy Drew games are always stellar at placing you in the world of the game. I have yet to play a series that really roots you in its atmosphere. CRY delivered that at another level. I’ve been to New Orleans, and this game took me back to that trip. I loved how everything in the house was slightly crooked to reflect the kookiness of Bruno Bolet, as well as make things more eerie. I remember how the intro to the game scared me as a kid, yes, I got scared of the Skeleton man as a kid. Imagine freaking out to the skeleton man attack and then cutting to Renee’s creepy eyes as a kid! Even as an adult, Renee’s eyes creep me out, and no way was I ever going to drink that concoction! This game has a lot of odd things that you can eat: mysterious beverage that may or may not kill you, chocolate that definitely will, and expired bubble gum that surprisingly does not kill you. Okay, back to atmosphere. The ambience of the game was consistent, even when you played Bess’s portions which was supposed to take you away from the eeriness of the Bolet house for a bit. The rain effect and the semi-dark state of the house because of the electricity outage definitely amped up the fear and creepiness. You definitely took cautious steps in and out of the house. The graveyard. THE GRAVEYARD. THE GRAVEYARD. I think the exploration of the graveyard might be my favourite exploration spots of all the games. I love how you can see Nancy’s silhouette and hear her shoes as she traversed the grave. It was big enough to pique curiosity, but not so big that you would get lost. I also appreciated how every grave section had its own design as it made things more memorable. I know some people didn’t like the graveyard scavenger hunt, but I relished it! The earlier games (1-5) had this slight ruthlessness to the game play. There was a slight edge that kept the reader hooked and just a touch fearful, and this game maintained that edge. I really appreciated that, especially since it would pater out a bit in later games.

Music:

This game has one of the best tracks: “Legend”. That alone should put it as a game with an amazing music score, but no, they had to add other titles like “Chatter” and “Bruno”. As someone who loves Jazz, I digged this score. So often I would stop and just listen to the music, and could feel myself get pumped whenever “Legend” would play. Honestly, why hasn’t someone created a Nancy Drew Ambience record yet? The jazz music was a nice contrast to the shadowy layout which added to the “everything is slightly unhinged” element of the game. But man, when the danger music would play, I would get chills. Especially when you’re in Renee’s room or in Bruno’s secret room. Surprisingly those two rooms creeped me more then the graveyard!

I also loved the little noises like the sound of rain, or the way the rain hit the windows. Nancy’s heels as she walked through the graves. The skeletal hand for Charlie’s puzzle. The sound Henry’s chair makes when he moves. Etc. etc.

Characters:

Nancy was amazing as usual. It surprises me how she remains unfazed by everything, but I love that side of her. Bess felt a bit out of character with her resistance to participating in snooping. Usually she’s dying to know what’s up, or help Nancy out, but she wasn’t this time. Still, got to had it too her. Not many friends would sneak into a private meeting and demand her rights despite being surrounded by creepy skeletal men. Some of you might scoff, but y’all would be crapping your pants if you were in the same situation.

So since you technically didn’t know there would be a mystery, it made sense that there were only 3 suspects. I like how Nancy doesn’t start out with an investigation. She mostly wants to figure out who the skeletal man was and why he attacked her, and how that simple curiosity leads her to the crystal skull. It’s a nice progression of plot.

Henry: Henry Bolet is handsome. I know some people might not like the arm sleeve thing or painted nails, but it’s 2020, it’s called aesthetic! Her Interactive over here creating male characters who want to paint their nails way before popular culture accepted it/picked up on it. Haters be jealous. I’m kidding. But still, I loved how much depth they put into this character. How with so little, you understood his character. When he complains about how Bruno sent him away as a child, it revealed that Henry is someone who really needs family. He’s aware his emotional needs are higher than the average person, not because he lost his parents, but just who he is by nature. It also makes his attachment to Summer make more sense. We can easily surmise that Summer was probably the first person to give Henry the emotional security he needed, but that it was clearly done for her own selfish desires. Henry’s inability/or refusal to see it also makes more sense. That being said, the moment we learn about Summer, it takes Henry off the suspect list. Up till then, the game does a good job at making him seem suspicious do to his dealings with Lamont. It’s not a bad thing, but since we only have 3 suspects, his removal immediately makes the culprit an easy 50-50 guess. Not to mention the fact that after blackmailing him (which was kind of mean of Nancy to do to someone who is already being emotionally abused by his girlfriend) he gets sidelined for the rest of the game despite there being a good chunk left to play.

Renee: Classic sweet but deadly suspect. Love how the game kept her super suspicious from the way she acted to the way she would emphasize things. For example, I found it so odd that she remembered the exact percentage of who would receive what in the will, like she had been mulling over that. And the way she ends with mentioning that she was to receive 10% compared to the others getting 30%, so subtle a remark yet it catches the ear of any good detective. And of course, the room and her interest in the occult made the suspicion grow. Unfortunately, I found the whole part about authenticating the skull a bit lackluster and kind of gives the culprit away. I mean Renee said “I wanted to find the skull” when Nancy confronts her about hiding information. After such a confession, wouldn’t the obvious follow up question be “why?”. I can only guess they included this to hype up the “chase” for the skull since we know the Dr. Buford is also looking for it, but the game didn’t really deliver on the urgency so this felt like a lackluster confession. It also came close to the end of the game, so when Renee appeared at the end it wasn’t surprising. Nancy’s faith in Renee was odd, and the fact that she just tossed up the skull—face slap! Nancy, she literally confessed 10 min ago, did you forget!? The ending was nice. I liked how she “forgot” to tell Nancy about Bernie (so malicious!), but then actually forgot that Bernie was in the water.

Dr. Buford: He was interesting. Seems nice and charming, but the more we learn about Bruno’s death, the suspicious he becomes. Love how Bess worries about Buford coming back to take the skull. I still don’t understand what exactly the skeletal society does, other then being pirate fans, but I liked the costumes.

Puzzles:

I love a healthy balance between puzzles and dialogue and this game delivered on that. The dialogue was nicely spaced out throughout the game and added to the characters. Each character had their own way of talking and phrases that stayed true to their character. The one exception is Henry’s “I’ve been naughty but I’ll be nice now” line which threw me off so hard. HELLO?? WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS! It’s so random for a college/uni person to say this. Actually, who says this?? I’ll be honest, my mind went a bit dark and wondered just how bad was Summer abusing him for such a dialogue to come out of him……. poor Henry.

But back to the puzzles. I honestly loved most of the puzzles. I know the bowling ball machine (the one where you have to roll all eyes) annoys people, but I enjoyed it. I also know the graveyard scavenger hunt bored people, but I love puns, and l loved the layout of the house and graveyard so much that running back and forth was so much fun. Solving the clock puzzle and teeth puzzle was also fun, and they made me feel like a genius. The first part of the buzzard puzzle wasn’t bad, it was just annoying to have to turn back and see what affect each gargoyle bird did. The book mentioned that the sounds the gargoyle’s made was important, but I didn’t catch anything. I also liked how the final puzzle was a puzzle that built throughout the game. You didn’t know the eye puzzle would be the final big puzzle, but every little puzzle played a role in being a part of the final puzzle. I just thought that was cool, I like interconnected stuff.

There were three puzzles I did not like. The first was with Bess and the box she had to open. The clue was Hamlet and some numbers. I thought that you had to call Nancy and have her check the library for Hamlet and look up those reference numbers. What was the point of writing Hamlet? Nowhere in the letter did it mention that you have to associate the letter to the number and type out what it spells. Also, it did not mention that you had to restart the counting every time! I had to go online for help with this puzzle. The second puzzle was the second part of the buzzard puzzle. After getting the key, which you don’t get a good look at, you’re supposed to use them on the gargoyles. But I didn’t get that, plus the emblem on each gargoyle was just a feather with notches, so how do you know that the key goes there??? Finally, I hated the wasp puzzle. It was annoying and I don’t know why Nancy didn’t take a handful of loquats at once!

Graphics:

They really hold up despite being 13 years old. Sure, it’s a bit weird around the eyes and mouth, but the rest is stellar. Also, I love how they added in certain quirks that matched each character’s personality. Like Henry kicking his legs up to show he’s someone who doesn’t care about bending the rules, little rebellious. But then the fact that he sits proper when talking shows that he’s not so rebellious and is actually trying to be professional. Also shows the contesting sides of his emotional needs and the military training he would have received. Renee’s position over her pots show that she’s someone tricks you into thinking that she loves to work with her hands (lol, end game “this girl just handed me the skull”. I told you I love puns). It also shows that she prioritizes the small things, and the fact that she’s potting despite being recently laid off (she’s the only character still working despite Bruno’s death) makes her a bit unnerving. Dr. Buford at the French quarters show that he’s someone of charm. Etc. etc.

Plot:

Like I said, loved the slow buildup of plot—how one thing led to another. Don’t know why Ned sent Nancy to do his work, but okay…

The Summer plotline felt like it got accidentally dropped. Like the writers forgot to finish it. Even if it’s just Nancy telling Henry that what he has isn’t healthy/good, or something in the end credits where he finally broke up with her. For all we know, they could still be together.

The introduction of the magical qualities of the skull and Bruno’s death was weird. I like how Bruno’s death became questioned, but while his desire for the skull kind of made sense, it didn’t make sense why Buford or Renee wanted it. It still wasn’t clear at the endgame either. I guess there’s the financial prospect, but that subplot kind of pattered out in favour for the magical plot. It also didn’t make sense that Bruno wanted it for Henry, because let’s be real, he wasn’t a good guardian. It really did seem like Bruno didn’t care for Henry. I mean, why give your nephew a skull instead of what he really wanted/needed, a friend. You can take this a bit darker when you realize that Bruno was giving Henry monetary comfort over emotional comfort and that Henry by end game has come to associate monetary gift to be equivalent to emotional gifts, which just makes his relationship with Summer get even darker.

Overall, this was a great game. 10/10. One of my favourites and would play again and again. That’s why I bought it, lol!
