Theory, Macaque doesn't know/remember why his name is the Six Eared Macaque

Okay, hear me out. The first time we meet Macaque, he introcudes himself like this:

Macaque! Or actually The Six Eared Macaque is- you know- My full name.

And then he introduces himself the same way in his own game to the player (MK)

Yo, how's it going? It's me Macaque-or rather the Six Eared Macaque- you know my full name, HEH!

I know it's a running theory that Macaque uses his magic to "hide" his ears in order to protect them. Glamour or other type of spell. His ears are one of his biggest vulnerability, given the supernatural hearing, loud noices would be very overwhelming for him so it's only logical to try and hide them, right? To try muffle some of the loudest noices with magic.

Then why does he keep telling everyone that he in fact HAS six ears? We know how cautious Macaque is, we know he has self-preservation, also he's a great liar so he wouldn't just throw information like that out there, if he really didn't want to.

I base this theory with Cherllyio's (in Tumblr and yt) theory, where they think the next big bad of S6 is gonna be one of, If not all of, The Four Evils. They are basically counterparts for the Four Holy Beasts we saw this season. In their theory Macaque made a deal with one of them. Then is it possible that the creature demanded him to give it, or "he?", something in return?

His ears.

Macaque doesn't remember making any deal with anyone or about these chaos powers as seen in episode 9.

But his six ears are what he's known for. So ofc something so rooted to his identity wouldn't be easy to erase from his memory.

He just knows that it's his fullname, he just can't remember where the title comes from. And I highly doubt someone like Macaque wouldn't have stopped, even for once during every cycle and asked himself: Hold up- why's that my name?

But the Ten Yama Kings called him Six Ears? Well... I don't think they'd bother to count his ears. Wukong? He never calls him that. So it's not like someone could give Macbook answers since no one seems to be interested about it (lol).

But we do see him react poorly to loud sounds and noices. Take Pigsy's singing for example.

Conclusion: Macaque gave his ears up to a creature from chaos in exchange for more power. Why'd he do that? Who knows. But IT has something to do with the whole lost memory theme, since his ability to hear past and future could give us answers to all the questions but because NONE OF THE CHARACTRES CARE to ask him about his ears, we just need to wait and see what happens.

Now that TikTok has been banned in the US, I want to inform all the US-Americans of the different reactions I've seen so far on the app about it

Everyone being really dramatic and acting like we're the people who survived the Thanos-snap in Infinity War

Some are holding fake funerals to honour the lost Americans

People being sad about TikTok feeling way more quiet than before

People being happy about TikTok feeling way more quiet than before

Everyone yelling about how superior km, celsius, 24-hour-clock, dd-mm-yy, etc is now that the Americans can't argue back about it

A lot of people being scared that TikTok is gonna get bought by an American company and the general consensus so far seems to be that we'd rather the Americans remain banished forever than that happening sorry lol no hard feelings

People being happy that they don't have to compete with Americans for clout anymore

People being insecure that they're not as funny as Americans

People not knowing who they're gonna make fun of now that the Americans are gone (the obvious answer is the English like cmon guys)

Everyone pointing out how the comment-section is way less toxic than usual (prolly confirmation bias, let's be honest)

The ever so illustrious (and badly scanned) sketch page, as promised :3 @orion-archives

Ngl, hilarious to me that every time I do a double full page sketch for these dudes, I basically unlock a new character (this time it’s Bumblebee). Not much planned for him rn beyond “I think it’d be Really funny if Bumblebee got bitches and is the same age as Optimus”. (You can see I Struggled at first with him till I sat down and Stared at some reference pics and then Immediately deviated away from it). Also a bit of Elita which I expanded upon in my fav format, meme :)

Also Ngl, I knew she showed up for like 0.6 seconds before being Blasted, but when using her comic ver. (Used Tfwiki which was surprisingly mean? About her? Felt bad) I realized she looked Very bird like (you can hear me evil chuckling in the distance as I keep infusing more animal traits like it’s my job). Also ended up keeping her ability to move around on one leg bc Ngl having her brandish one of her legs at you while going Mach 5 is Very Funny.

Also, here’s one I like I call “Sentinel screaming at the matrix to pick his son (Oppy) as the next High Leader” (also context: going with High Leader as a replacement for Prime as that’s a frame type here instead of “king chosen by god” archetype)

Also. Some bonus pics from my Discord :). Very little context beyond friend telling me to draw Oppy in Shinji pose and it Immediately devolving into the art (that I made) on their wall (it would be 2 Oppy v 1 Wally darling) and then I made the second at 2am in a fit of inspiration. You can tell it was 2am.

Ya know what occurs to me?

Karai Bari is in the New World.

Crocodile and Mihawk only showed up after the establishment of the delivery service.

Buggy was in Paradise. Marineford would have been in Paradise, I think, or at least Buggy's crew still was.

He doesn't have conquerors to cross the calm belt.

So... to get to the New World and set up shop, he'd have to have gone through Fishman Island, wouldn't he? So he'd had to have gotten the ship coated.

He'd likely have had to face Rayleigh or at least he'd have anticipated it - maybe Shanks even mentions Rayleigh hanging around there, maybe even mentioning him having NEVER missed Shanks passing through....

So when Buggy goes when Buggy expects to be found and claims to be dreading it and is but is also so hopeful so scared so broken so hesitant he's got a few different courses figured for how this will go down.

Only.... Rayleigh isn't there. Shakky is. She just directs them to another coater. Buggy fights himself, wants to ask, doesn't want to beg, and-

Shakky answers the question he couldn'tdislodge from his throat. "Sorry, baby blue, Ray's just working on something real important. You know how it is."

He does. He does know how it is. Important, huh? That's fine. It's probably a job. It's probably not that big of a deal that dad master Rayleigh is preoccupied. Buggy shouldn't have expected the man to drop everything and come running why did he think that, Rayleigh never did it before, not even Shanks' assurance he'd leave a message for Rayleigh would change much, and fuck he can't afford to cry so-

So Buggy gets the ship coated. It's not as pricy as he'd worried. He navigates them down, can even bring himself to smile at the wide eyed wonder from the rest. It's nice. He's fine here - these are his people. He's okay, really, and he'll be able to let this go or shove it into that nameless box in his head and heart soon enough. He just has to ride the wave, you know-?

Only no. Not really. Because a newspaper lands in his hands. And his brain is racing.

Because Rayleigh wasn't at Sabaody at all. He was with Strawhat. He was training Strawhat. He showed up, after the war, so close to the conflict, to train the kid. Rayleigh is fast, but not that fast. He'd have to have left around a week before Buggy even arrived. Shanks had assured him Rayleigh was there when he dropped by ((two weeks ago)). He knew because his brother had wrapped him in his arm and tears were shed, voices were raised and hearts were broken, wounds torn open to drain the festering rot and the healing hurt, it hurt then, it hurts now, it will hurt and hurt and hurt, because Buggy had pushed the Big Top to her near limits just to reach the archipelago that his former guardian ex-father previous family that Rayleigh called home. Shanks had called him, said he'd dropped the message and Rayleigh had chuckled and nodded and Buggy wanted to see his dad because there were still so many scars that had to be seen and acknowledged and Buggy himself wasn't even fully recovered physically but emotionally he had to do it, had to take the step and try because vulnerability brought the best and worst of him out, because he lost a brother and gained him back and he wanted for his father, at least one of them.

But Strawhat was on that front page. And Rayleigh was behind him, smiling, warm, proud, happy, and - Buggy aches. He's angry. He's livid. A week or so, by his estimate, for Rayleigh to find him and get there to the war ground. A week or so because Rayleigh was old but he was still painfully fast. In a week or so, the older man hunted down a boy he'd possibly met once or twice in passing. A week or so and The Dark King showed up to bring another strawhat wearing monster of epic proportions under his wing, had made impressive time in finding the kid, making the plan, getting to the navy hq, getting out, and that's accounting for the article writing, printing, and distribution.

A week or so to find a bright little sunshine boy he barely knew when one he raised rotted in a cell for months on end.

Busy with something real important, he recalled Shakky saying.

His chest burned for a moment, hot and wild and unyielding - and just as suddenly, the fire was gone. He was tired. He was so fucking tired. His injuries throbbed, his head hurt, his scars itched. He sighed, set the paper aside and curled impossibly small into his chaise lounge with a teary chuckle as he gripped his hair and tried to silence the keen building in his chest. He cursed himself for it, bitter and angry.

After all, he should be used to being outshined, out classed and out loved by energetic boys with bright smiles in little wicker crowns.

Story of his life

He is unaware of the many eyes on him, of the people Plotting and Arranging things on their own time. Their captain is the best - uncommon, unexpected, temperamental though he is, he is everything everyone needs him to be because it's the only thing he knows how to do. They see the seams in his mask and performance, and they ache to pay back the pain left on their captain, their boss, their leader and friend. Buggy pirates stick together, freaks and weirdos united - and nobody is allowed to hurt their captain without some serious followup.

The end to the story. whatever happens, I guess it happened — I have hopes, idk where they're placed or what they mean, but I have them.

Whatever happens, I know Evbo is going out with a bang.
