Cough cough Buggy slowly detaches himself from the Roger pirates cause he thinks that he's just a burden cough cough.

-forgotten birthday anon

Forgotten Birthday anon! I need you to come off anon and face me! I just want to talk!

Okay, but seriously, I haven‘t answered my sad Buggy headcanon asks in a while, because I actually love the Roger Pirates and constantly writing bad things about them was saddening. But it has been a while, so I can clearly come back to them now.

And you send me this! On the day I finally got to watch OPLA! Unacceptable (in all seriousness tho, I love this, but I get to that later)

I almost made a joke about how this message was probably what sent me to the hospital, but I would feel too bad about making a joke like that, so instead I assure you, that despite your apparent cruelty, my hospitalisation has nothing to do with this message (It sure would be weird if it did 😂)

Okay, but all this aside, let‘s get to the ask! 💙

It would definitely be an interesting idea and it certainly explains why Buggy never feels the need to catch up with anyone from his old crew.

After all, the only people we hear him mention in canon are Shanks, Roger and Rayleigh (the people he had actual strong connections to). So eve there it would make sense. Of course, there is also the added fact that he and Shanks got abandoned by the rest of the crew - which, I am still mad about! Like seriously, there was no need to dump the two of them on a random island! Someone should have definitely taken them with him, even if all he members of the crew went their separate ways.

But also, in this headcanon world, Buggy’s feeling, that he is nothing but a burden, only intensives after he accidentally eats the devil fruit, thus essentially robbing the crew of quite a lot of Berrys.

Especially (and I think I mentioned this before, but honestly I can‘t find it), since I can totally see Shanks making jokes about how they have to sell Buggy now, that they can‘t sell the fruit anymore. And even if it is all in good fun, Buggy with his lacking self-esteem would not take that well.

This is definitely something I will have to think about for a while!

But I thank you very much for this ask!

I bet Mabel would totally gush over baby Bill

Yep absolutely

This is not part of the evil cipher parent AU necessary

Because I still have no idea, who exactly raised Bill in that AU

But it’s fun to imagine Mabel playing with the bebe (she would totally forget about his actions in canon as soon as she sees him, Mabel is a forgiving person, especially when it come to small silly triangle children)

Buggy takes a hit for Shanks while fighting marines and ends up unconscious for a few days.

I have been hurt by asks for too long! It is time to hurt back: Also, I went a little off script, so please continue with caution, and please mind the tags!

Buggy's hair is blue. Not light blue like the water that surrounds the reefs that line islands shores with all their colors and shapes. Not gray blue, like the waves that ripple in the wind of a foreboding storm. Not dark blue, like the ocean at night, more black than anything else, reflecting the pale light of the moon above it. No, Buggy's hair is blue, just blue. Like the middle of the ocean on a clear day, where everything seems far away and yet so near at the same time. It is currently turning dark, as blood seeps into the long strands sprawled on the floor. He's not crying anymore. He just lies on the damn floor and stares at the ceiling, his lips pale. It almost looks like he is already dead. But then his eyes start to drift shut and Shanks has to yell at him from where he is chained to the wall, to "Stay awake! Please, you can't fall asleep!" Until he opens them again and resumes his wordless staring. Shanks' wrists are sore, rubbed bloody from the way he strains against the shackles. By the time he gets out, they will be stained red by his blood. But that is okay. Red had always been his color. He'd gladly be covered in it, if only he doesn't have to see it seep out of the bullet wound in his friend's shoulder. Buggy is not shackled or bound in any way. The marines don't think that he will make it out of this cell. And they don't care. Why don't they care? They are pirates, sure, but they are still people! Don't these marines feel any remorse to let a kid bleed out on their dirty cell floor?

But Shanks knows that this is not about them. This is about the fact that they are sailing under Gol D. Roger. They are punishing their captain, and they don't care who gets hurt in the process. Shanks cares! Because it is Buggy. Because the bullet was meant for Shanks. Because Buggy pushed him aside. Because they wouldn't have been there if Shanks hadn't dared Buggy to steal away from the Oro Jackson for just one night. Because because because because. Shanks wants to scream, he wants to cry. But he can't, not yet. Not as long as they are not safe. First, he needs to make sure that Buggy is alright. He needs his hair to be blue again, not dark blue, just blue.

Buggy's eyes drift shut again and Shanks continues his pleads for him to open them. But he doesn't. Air gets stuck in Shanks' lung. He can't breathe, he can't think. He needs to get to Buggy. But he can't. Even when he strains against the shackles, even when the metal, warmed by his own blood, rubs against his sore wrists, even when one of his shoulders pops and strains against its socket. He can't reach Buggy. Pain dances around his eyes, it tinges the edges of his vision black. Before he passes out, a scream rips from his throat and a thought dances around his mind. It is not fair. Buggy is right there! He is so near and yet so far. Like shapes in blue water, not gray blue, just blue.

Years later, there is an ocean of flowers that spans the little hilltop, where Shanks buried his best friend. There are balloon flowers, and edging lobelias, and geraniums, and cornflowers, and they are all blue. Not light blue, just blue.

holy shit Flo Rida is just Florida with a space

I like the implications of Bill apparently not drawing any yellow triangles in his therapy pictures. Whether it means anything or not, when kids draw family pictures, they want to draw themselves too, they are the part of the family, right? But he draws just Red and Blue. As if a happy picture of them is one where he never existed. I am overthinking it it course.

AUGH ANON YOU GOT ME THINKING.

What if like. Okay so we know he and his family were from a 2 Dimensional world, Euclydia. He only draws red and blue triangles, who are likely his parents. Yellow triangles are nowhere to be seen. Maybe it’s supposed to be a happy picture without him

But. But he’s the yellow triangle. He’s still from Euclydia. In most respects, he’s still 2D

So maybe. Maybe instead he’s trying to recreate the environment. Maybe he’s putting himself back with them in the only way he can.

He only draws red and blue triangles… because the yellow triangle is already there
