*takes a long drag of my imaginary cigarette*

I bet Shanks being involved with the God's Knights was a big part of why he never reached out to Buggy in the 10 years following Roger's death.

One of only two possibilities that I can see for Shanks even being willing to be in the same room as the God's Knights who he knows from a lifetime of being on the Pirate King's crew are scum of the earth are him wanting to infiltrate them to learn more about Elbaf and their connection to Nika, or the more likely option he was blackmailed into it. Sanji in Whole Cake Island returned to his abusive birth family to protect the Straw Hats and Zeff. Shanks probably returned to his abusive birth family to protect his crew, Buggy, and likely Uta since she has to factor into his past somewhere.

So he went along and was branded with the Mark of the Abyss which granted him Imu-sourced immortality. How horrifying must that have been for Shanks to see all future signs of injury and aging grind to a screeching halt (save for his iconic scar which I'm confident in him getting before he returned to Mariejois, we see from the Gorosei any pre-existing scars attained before the contract is established remain). To see his flesh swirl into demonic smoke as it's numb to pain and potentially even more sensations.

Even if he made it out, he could never live a normal life again. His regeneration and immortality would be quickly discovered. He would outlive everyone he loved. He would outlive the Roger Pirates, who were already getting up in years. He would outlive his own crew. He would outlive his daughter. He would outlive Buggy.

He would have nothing and nobody after all that time except for the monsters who he shares blood with. The monsters who cursed him by making him one of them. That's probably why he was able to slip away from them to return to pirate life. Imu and the God's Knights knew that as long as he bore the Mark of the Abyss, he could play at being a pirate all he wanted because he would have to come back to them eventually. There was nowhere for him to go. He was theirs forever.

And then a little boy with Roger's ambition fell into the sea.

The strawhat crew is growing! Everyone had a lot of good suggestions for what Robin should be... NO I unfortunately decided not to make Robin a robin :( That was originally the plan but I scrapped it because it didn't feel like it really fit her character

Now we have Luffy as a sun conure, Zoro as a red tailed hawk, Nami as a baltimore oriole, Sanji as a secretary bird, and now Robin as a barn owl!
