Do New Ace People These Days Know About Black Rings?

pre-TS zolu like this because Zoro would be embarrassed to ask for cuddles and kisses

Post-TS Zoro would not feel an ounce of shame tho. He sometimes would randomly get up and hug Luffy kiss all over his face and return to his nap (he got up because he heard Luffy's laugh and he couldn't stop his desire to kiss his smile)

The whole way down to fishman island, zoro and luffy are attached at the hip and eagerly attempting to show off their cool new moves to eachother and i think that’s neat.

thinking about how 25apcsb act 1 is just oh how silly, a little show about 12 year olds in a small local spelling bee, and then you go into act 2 and boom literal jesus christ is there

depression tips™

shower. not a bath, a shower. use water as hot or cold as u like. u dont even need to wash. just get in under the water and let it run over you for a while. sit on the floor if you gotta.

moisturize everything. use whatever lotion u like. unscented? dollar store lotion? fancy ass 48 hour lotion that makes u smell like a field of wildflowers? use whatever you want, and use it all over. 

put on clean, comfortable clothes. 

put on ur favorite underwear. cute black lacy panties? those ridiculous boxers u bought last christmas with candy cane hearts on the butt? put em on.

drink cold water. use ice. if u want, add some mint or lemon for an extra boost.

clean something. doesn’t have to be anything big. organize one drawer of ur desk. wash five dirty dishes. do a load of laundry. scrub the bathroom sink. 

blast music. listen to something upbeat and dancey and loud, something that’s got lots of energy. sing to it, dance to it, even if you suck at both.

make food. don’t just grab a granola bar to munch. take the time and make food. even if it’s ramen. add something special to it, like a hard boiled egg or some veggies. prepare food, it tastes way better, and you’ll feel like you accomplished something. 

make something. write a short story or a poem, draw a picture, color a picture, fold origami, crochet or knit, sculpt something out of clay, anything artistic. even if you don’t think you’re good at it.

go outside. take a walk. sit in the grass. look at the clouds. smell flowers. put your hands in the dirt and feel the soil against your skin.

call someone. call a loved one, a friend, a family member, call a chat service if you have no one else to call. talk to a stranger on the street. have a conversation and listen to someone’s voice. if you can’t, text or email or whatever, just have some social interaction with another person. even if you don’t say much, listen to them.

cuddle your pets if you have them/can cuddle them. take pictures of them. talk to them. tell them how u feel, about your favorite movie, a new game coming out.

today i am thinking about zoro and luffy both having two constantly depicted scars. one on their eye each and one on their chest each. so intrinsically intertwined they have matching mortal wounds.

and i know it’s silly, and coincidental, but i like to think it symbolises them understanding each other more and more as time passes.

zoro got his chest scar clambering and falling on the way to his dream, being defeated by mihawk so easily then swearing to never lose again. and luffy who got his chest scar clambering and falling in a different way. they understood ultimate defeat respectively, loss and something that hit, quite literally, over the heart. their chest scars are their most important reminders of strength, the need for it. and loss, the need to avoid it.

and then luffy, who’s eye scar is a self-inflicted wound as he tried to convince shanks he could be a pirate too- he was strong enough. and zoro who got his eye scar during the timeskip, in a way we still don’t completely know, in the height of his self loathing for not being strong enough. they both got the scars around their eyes for the future ahead of them, and in trying desperately to get there. luffy asking shanks to take him onboard, and zoro asking mihawk to train him. the scars around their eyes are ground zeroes, an ask, a plea, complete determination.

one piece started and zoro quickly learned to understand loss, knew loss, while luffy would learn loss so deeply in marineford. one piece started and luffy understood helpless desperation, growing up with shanks refusing him. and zoro learned that later, so horribly, after thriller bark turned into the sabaody incident turned into marineford where he couldn’t do anything.

zoro and luffy understand each other so completely, they’re soulmates. but there are still parts of themselves which are obscured, different, simply because they are two different people with two different histories. and those things that are missing come with age, experience or being together. they understand one another more each day, somehow that’s possible, and i think their scars are a good example of it. them learning things which they may not have understood before, connecting to parts of each other they may not have connected to before.

Luffy and Zoro arguing reminds me of bickering between old married couples.

Here's Luffy scolding his husband again for being such an ingrate. Zoro haven't you learned from Whiskey Peak?

And also, come on Luffy, listen to your man 🙄

This is like calling your husband, but he doesn't hear you because he's too focused on watching his favorite sports game.

I love the One Piece OVA so much. We get to see OP animated in 90s style, and also the boys are just so chill and we even get to hear Zoro's laugh. I miss early OP wholesomeness.

Zoro: I wonder what happened to Nami.

Luffy: Dunno. She's probably alive. We're alive right?

Zoro: Got that right.

*laughs hysterically*

Such a dumbass4dumbass conversation. I really love seeing them laughing together but they literally saw her get eaten by a Sea monster lmao. What a bunch of idiots!

Also, the way Zoro looked at Nami then at Luffy tho. I love the Romance dawn trio sm.

Nami is so pretty in this artstyle ♡

More ZoLu crumbs

"Zoro, let's go." "Yeah"

they never change♡

That awkward moment (for Zoro) when Sanji calls for Nami at the same time with Zoro calling for Luffy happily and both of them,for a second, sounding the same and everyone smirking at Zoro's furiously blushing face.
