Law and Bepo💛

[ominiscorridor]

Across the width of the Grand Line and deep in the Dungeon, I can only feel honored to see such beauty.

Your Honor

I love him

Some things are different but somehow the same

The alternate version:

I was just going to sketch, I said to myself.

I'm a liar.

Just pick him up and place him somewhere else

Tbh at this point I'm only waiting for Solidaires Informatique to actually go ahead and start their own legal situation so we know there really is one and it actually is about the real problems (worker abuse).

I don't think people truly realise how Qstudio's response to the revelations has been and still is extremely unprofessional. Ghosting people you exploited for a year because you're what, scared of leaks? Is unacceptable behaviour.

(Angry rant below)

Like, to be clear, it is obvious to me that they haven't recruited any Human Ressources yet because this shit wouldn't fly in a normal workplace.

You have a lot of exploited ex employees left on read, asking for a private DISCUSSION for 2 months now.

All the somewhat relevant announcements were made thru public streams, in a language they know not all their ex employees understand.

They relied on volunteer labor (the fans') to translate their official annoucement instead of, you know, doing it themselves (and not just in english but all the language they prided themselves to have included in the project)

And even then, the announcements are so vague and unhelpful that we might as well not have them.

Let's be real. They don't consider these ex employees as such. They consider them formerly privileged fans that are now ruining it for everyone. People they think are a pain in the ass and would rather not deal with for now. At least, that's the message their behaviour is sending.

This is an extreme caricature of bad management, except it's in real life.

Their only saving grace is that Quackity, his friends, and the project are beloved by fans. If it were any other company, i can guarantee you that there would be zero support because they objectively don't deserve it after this much shit.

Reading the last One Piece Chapter is doing nothing to stop me from thinking the One Piece is litterally just that, a one piece swimsuit.

the leftism leaving people's bodies when the workers' rights violations are what keeps their favorite minecraft roleplay series afloat

Honestly, QSMP can do whatever it wants to win back the fans' trust, as long as they don't contact Lumi again and apologize to her for unjustly icing her out, they wont have my trust. That is my baseline.

You'd think it's a pretty reasonable thing to expect, and yet, it's been more than a month and nothing happened.

She was severely punished and was never given an explanation nor an apology. She was cut off from a project she poured her soul in. For no official reason. Just because.

(Reminder: It happened BEFORE Léa went public. It was supposed to be swept under the rug without any cc or fan being aware that Lumi would be gone, just like with Ramon's first admin)

I still dont understand how recontacting her is not, like, a clear priority. I mean, they'll lose an entire language if Lumi is replaced. Do they not see that? And if they do, do they just not care? Because it really looks like it from the outside.

So yeah, for me, Lumi being ghosted is like a canary in a coal mine situation: if THAT obvious problem isn't fixed yet, then I have no reason to trust that the studio's priorities are good. I'll wait for it to get better, sure, I genuinely want it to get better, but for now, I just can't trust them.

Even just a "we did not forget about you, as Quackity stated before, well do whatever we can to get actors back in good working conditions, we must ask you to wait for more information" is enough. See, no apology. No legal risk. They can say that. And yet.

Law's artist side isn't talked about enough, so here's a smooth brain ramble.

He prefers abstract arts over realism. Unlike Kid who forms animal or skull figures with metals, Law creates strange 'sculptures' with his victim's bodies/belongings:

And, of course, the tattoos.

I like how all of his tattoos accentuate the shapes of his torso and arms, especially the joints and muscles. Combined they look like a single stylized drawing of human upper torso.

Seen theories that the tribal style could be a lost trend from Flevance (as seen on the arm of a miner in his flashback), but it could just be his personal style. That said, his upper arm's heart tattoos look similar.

(Something that artists probably noticed long ago but I'm only noticing recently: Law's upper arm's tattoos have been simplified over time. There used to be two spiral-like protrusions, but Oda has been omitting them in later arts)

The "DEATH" tattoos have a straightforward message. According to the Law novel, these were his first tattoos.

Speaking of death, ghosts and spirituality have been implicitly a theme for Law, especially during Dressrosa. Doflamingo referred to Law as Cora's 'vengeful ghost'. Law's (cursed) sword Kikoku's name means 'wailings of a restless ghost". Ironically, Law having a hidden name was also a tradition that related to dead people.

The orange jolly roger (red in the sail) could be many things, I think it's a stylized way of drawing the sun.

Sun symbols are everywhere in the One Piece world. Law's lower arm tattoos are different types of 'suns'. Law might've subconsciously carried those symbols from his hometown for their aesthetic appeal.

The tattoos on the back of his hands reminded me of the church lady's cross, which is slightly different from the cross seen at Kuma's church. It's possible that various faiths in One Piece world are interconnected, leading to a prophecy about the sun god and Dawn. Law, at the very least, believes in the will of D and his own fate being tied to a purpose.

The chest tattoo, clearly a tribute to Corazon, could have some elements of catholicism. Kikoku also has crosses all over its sheath. Originally this wasn't my observation, but Law seeing Cora as a sacred being makes a lot of sense.

Carving a heart at the dead center of his chest by creating small wounds - the process itself reminds of Cora doesn't it

The custom-made Dressrosa coat is another tribute to Corazon, but IMHO he designed it specifically for Doflamingo, as a mockery.

A cross and circle like dangling a pistol target for Doflamingo's shooting practice, with a grinning face copied from Doflamingo's own jolly roger, but it's Corazon. Like his brother has returned to face his pistol again. A vengeful ghost indeed

And boy did it work...

Doflamingo shot it until the mark was completely drenched and unrecognizable.

Assuming he draws for all of his clothes himself, here's this masterpiece:

Or maybe it's gifted by his crew mates. Either way, it's adorable.

Since he's a surgeon (and a comic nerd), he should be skilled at drawing human anatomy. How does he draw realistic arts? Does he doodle while taking notes?

We've seen his handwriting in punk hazard arc and it wasn't particularly stylized. Regardless, it'd be nice to take a proper peek at his notebook.

Law: Everybody says black cats are just eyes when they're in the dark But the truth is any cat can be just eyes if you can get them to blend in with their natural environment.

Robin: Alternatively, there are cats who are completely covered in eyes via a mutation or a Devil Fruit. If I ever had the good fortune of seeing one, I would feel very safe and watched. Like some kind of god that has come down in the form of a little cat whose unfiltered gaze would reduce you to a shell of a human being.

Law: Same.
