#SANJI YOU ARE EVERYTHING TO ME

[twow]

sanji is the most closeted character ever a lot of people hc him as bi which is great and awesome ofc but to me personally he reads so much like a gay man so deeply in the closet that he plays up his "straightness" and masculinity to the extreme. and im not just saying that bc of projection like it is there in the text... like the fact that he fawns over women all the time but literally as soon as a woman shows genuine interest back he is stone-faced does not care does not react. it really reads like a huge performance to demonstrate his masculinity and not actual interest in them and he doesn't know what to do when they like him bc he's not actually interested in them so he plays dumb. ESPECIALLY after growing up in not one but two households with really toxically masculine ideals, one of which he idolizes to this day. he also can seemingly just like. turn off his girl crazy behaviors like when the moment calls for it (WCI as one example) he doesn't do his whole ~ahh woman <3333 thing which further reiterates that fawning over them is not an involuntary lovestruck reaction but an active choice that he makes to play up how straight he is. and like he treats women nicely and fawns over them but never really... pursues them? there's also the fact that every single time a man compliments him or is impressed by him he immediately responds that he doesn't take compliments from men almost like he's so afraid of being perceived in a romantic light with men to the point where he's even nervous to take a simple compliment form them, something that does not bother straight men. being upset over getting a compliment from the same gender is only something that a closeted person afraid of any perceived queerness would do its not normal behavior. plus there's the fact that men get him so riled up that he cannot control his behavior (kinemon literally had him writhing around on the floor in anger lmao) and is constantly picking fights with men since in his mind that's the only way he can be closer to them or get their attention without being perceived as gay. there is soo much more, i could go on and on and on about his + sanji gender studies (okay i'll do a mini rant: he was so fucking happy wearing that dress on momoiro island and it's only when he got a newspaper about his crew that he decided he couldn't wear it anymore. almost like he found happiness as a woman in a place where he was guaranteed acceptance but then was reminded about how his crew would see him and how they would react and freaked out, again due to the toxic masculinity. also further evidence is that it took him literally ONE CONVERSATION to go from "no fucking way im not wearing a dress im not like you people" to "omfg i am a woman i have found myself." if he truly had nothing going on gender-wise it would have taken more convincing) but in conclusion sanji wants everyone to think he likes women so he plays up the simp behavior to the extreme but without any real attraction to them due to the toxic masculinity that's been entrenched in him since childhood and the need to be a "real man." i am sobbing crying throwing up over him give him some estrogen and let him date men. oh also this:

me: all sanji fics are the same! it's always sanji having a breakdown over liking a man and going into an identity crisis and a spiral of internalized homophobia-

I finally watched opla so here’s my take on that one pic of sanji (mugshot?? lol) that everyone keeps drawing

(no reposts; reblogs appreciated)

Me: Hehe Sanlu!!!!

Fandom: Oh but Zoro? Where's Zoro? What about Zoro? Including Zoro in this. Adding Zoro here because. Zoro tho

Me: KICKING YOU IN THE SHINS STOP THAT

[mel-loly]

-And yes.. They still understand each other even in different languages :]

[biscuitboba]

Idk but i love how everyone seems to be looking straight ahead, but zoro? he is looking at his captain like, alright-

[120percents]

sanji about zoro, episode 982

thinking about how when zoro wakes up in chapter 1052, the first thing he thinks about is indeed…

so he has his sake (while sanji watches him with a suspiciously fond look)

and then, in the face of wondering why he’s clean (and thus making him remember the time he’s been gone), he thinks about his conversation with sanji

and only then does he grab his swords to go reunite with sanji and proclaim the totally normal thought that He Came Back From Hell For Him

so in line with zoro’s rule of threes:

3 ‘s’s… sake, swords and sanji

i wonder how zeff would've reacted to sanji's bounty poster changing to "only alive" and then later to sanji "vinsmoke" (well known former conquerors/royalty of the north blue)

whether sanji's told zeff about germa or not, zeff would be stressed OUT

[theposhperyton]

All evidence suggests yes

[beanghostprincess]

me explaining why i like sanuso: i like sanuso because i think both their personalities and pasts match perfectly. their dynamic is domestic and sweet but also silly and hilarious while also having angst from both sides to their own personal issues with self-worth. it's such an interesting ship to explore and i honestly think it's underrated. they're beautiful.

me explaining why i like lusan: [incoherent sobs and screaming]

Slamming my head against the wall god fucking DAMMIT I'm so in love with Sanlu I am GOING to explode.

[sassypantsjaxon]

I still haven't watched much one piece other than the episodes where Sanji joins the crew

But I can't stop thinking about Sanji having to use his Kitchen Voice to get the rest of the crew's attention for some reason, and they all just snap to attention so fast they're all left wondering 'what the hell just happened???'

[spock-smokes-weed]

Sanji being a cook who prides himself on being able to cook anything is perfect for my vision.

Because as a cook and a caretaker, Sanji would take any craving Zoro has seriously and would go leaps and bounds to make it happen. Normally Zoro would take offense to being doted on, but getting the food he wants when he asks is pretty sweet when he’s pregnant and hungry. I want just a little bit of how Sanji usually treats Nami 🤏. Like when they’re doing a cook out on the beach there’s a lot of “don’t touch those pickles! I made them for zoro!” and “Luffy you can wait, Zoro gets served first”

Food is how Sanji shows love so as he’s falling head of heels in love with Zoro and the little family they’re making, he’s doing all kinds of special cooking for Zoro.

I think for midnight carvings especially he’s not afraid to go to Baratie in the middle of the night to use their deep fryer and griddle if Zoro has a hankering for burgers and fries.

Meanwhile the straw hats are stunned at this weird twilight world where Sanji is pampering Zoro and Zoro’s letting him
