Damn op, seems like your favorite characters can never catch a break 😭

Especially when it comes to angst linked to children, and an absent other parent

Great art by the way!

(Noooooo not Sanji's hand whyyyyy)

Damn, it'S BEEN TWO DAYS and I feel like I have been found 😅

The thing is, YES, this has some... similarities 👀 But this is actually the og AU! Like I had this story in my mind since WCI aired, but by then I was like... I can't draw One Piece stuff, not in the year *insert when it aired*, but I also never forgot about it. Then I was recently reminded that cringe is dead, and I was like... damn it, I wanna draw this like I originally planned it! I like how I repurposed the idea (and it definitely became it's own thing), but in my head I was always like... this was supposed to be for zosan! And now I'm just going for it 🙏

I dont know if you know the content creator Jack The Whipper but to me he is Graves coded

You cannot tell me that Phil did not spent waaaay too much time learning how to crack a whip properly and do all sorts of tricks because of movies like Indiana Jones

Graves totally has that sass, charisma and theatrical quality we see in Jack lol

And he would crush on Indie and try to lean how to whip and he’d have one somewhere in his office and the cleaning staff would find it and assume…things🤣🤣

He’s less pirate theme and more southern beau/cowboy

we are not ready for the way that I know Cole is gonna be eating up Trip

[puppyluver256]

Btw if anyone's wondering why they haven't seen any activity from me, it's cuz my compy crapped out last night and I don't feel comfortable scrolling phone all day. Getting a new one soon, wish me luck in finding what I need.

I need more about best friends bob and reader like ughhh I love it

uh huhhh!! yup yuuuup you get me you see the vision

like bob just..isn't used to having someone who genuinely cares about him/wants to be around him? so already having a sudden best friend is weird.

to take it a step further (and make it a little sad) he was an addict. he was probably (maybe?) homeless, and that sort of life isn't really one where you can trust the people around you very much? let alone make genuine good friends who love and support you, so like, reader kind of just blows him away. reader Also being a bit unused to have good friends is just icing on the cake fr.

like just imagine

"Robby, baby, I got new chapstick it's like, mango and passion fruit or somethin'. Want some?" and the rest of the team thinks that Bob will just ask to use the actual chapstick, but that's too much effort apparently because. oh wow. Bob is kissing you. And you're like..totally fine with it? For some reason? You're kissing him back, actually? What the fuck is going on? but before they can question it you're both parting and Bob is, surprisingly, seemingly unaffected by the kiss. like its Normal.

"You're right, that ones really good." and then its back to business as usual.

Possibly my favorite part of this trope is the befuddlement of the rest of the team tbh. They're making bets on when it'll come out you and Bob are actually dating, until Yelena realizes that...no, you guys are just that fucking oblivious apparently.

"what d'you mean? we're not dating. we're just really good friends. :)" (shout out @cowardlycandy for That bit of dialogue it has not left my brain thats so him coded)

just!! bob who has someone to love and dote on him without the fear of messing it up somehow (because he a hundred percent WOULD feel like he was constantly doing things wrong in an actual labeled relationship) and being able to love and dote on someone in return :))

yuuuup yup yup yup 🙂‍↕️

[jobazzle]

books i've read in 2025

it's! officially! a new year! and the end of the first month of 2025! so i obvs had to do this again (see my 2024 post here)

January

The Women - Kristin Hannah ★★★★½ did i start reading this in 2024 MAYBE SO did i finish this almost as soon as the new year started YUP lmaooo (oh my god i just checked and...i started reading this in OCTOBERFHJDSHKJFS...it was a really good book so i'm glad i finally finished it!!!!)

Bright Young Women - Jessica Knoll ★★★★ this was as infuriating as it was heartbreaking....and also featured one of my top 10 book betrayals of all time i hate that man I HATE HIM

How to End a Love Story - Yulin Kuang ★★★★½ this falls into one of my favorite and most exclusive categories: books where it takes me a bit to really get into it but once i'm in i start reading soooo slowly bc i never want it to end <3

February

Love and Other Words - Christina Lauren ★★★½ my expectations were so high bc of all the hype i'd seen online and yet....this was just....ok....like how is this friends to lovers (MY FAVORITE TROPE) and yet i didn't deeply love and adore it???? NOOOOOOO. however it DID make me SOB so!!!! there's that!!!! (IT GOT TOO RELATABLE)

Taming 7 - Chloe Walsh ★¾ literally what the hell was that (the review i wrote on storygraph was....so long i don't wanna get into it again lmao just know: i HATED how this entire story played out)(and whew was this a rough read for us lizzie defenders!!!!!)

The Rom-Commers - Katherine Center ★★★★★ loved this so much i literally DREAMT about finishing it and rating it five starshjgkhskjfhdsk. the yearning!!! the tension!!! the will they won't they of it all!!!! YUP YUP YUUUUP THIS WAS EVERYTHING (i have decided the theme song of this book is couldn't make it any harder by sabrina carpenter. no i will not elaborate. yes this song choice probably isn't the best or most accurate. but it feels correct ok)

Only If You're Lucky - Stacy Willingham ★★★¾ talk about an unreliable narrator DAMN i'm actually kinda sad for all parties involved like i'm sorry i was suspicious of you i was INTENTIONALLY MISLED by the pov i was reading oops </3 (i was in a theme song kick when i read this and the rom-commers so i do indeed have a theme song for this and it's if you go down (i'm goin' down too) by kelsea ballerini...that would 1000% play during the end credits of a screen adaptation for this ok)

Cross The Line - Simone Soltani ★★★★¼ see i was expecting to hate this and now i'm counting down the days for the second book in the series to release GIVE IT TO ME NOWWWWWW (i literally got up and started pacing while reading the on track racing scenes like bitch i was STRESSED)(that is also the emotion i feel while watching an actual f1 race sooooo 10/10 incredible writing good job love that it evoked the exact same emotions from me fhdsjkhfdskj)(also holy shit what an epilogue)

March

The Pumpkin Spice Café - Laurie Gilmore ★★★¼ not at all anything rly groundbreaking + had a predictable "mystery" buuuut it was cozy as hell (i really should've read this in the fall oops my bad) and idk like it was just a lighthearted, sweet, easy read!!!! i had fun!!!!

Beg, Borrow, or Steal - Sarah Adams ★★★★¾ college rivals to coworker rivals to kinda friends to lovers yeaaaah that's my type of love storyyyyyyy (the fmc is sooooo rwylm by taylor at the beginning of this ohhhhh my god). quote that ended me -> "you think you're unlovable, but i think i've never known how to love until knowing you." like???? oh!!!!! so you want to make me emotionally unstable via deeply heartfelt dialogue????? CONGRATS MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

Sunrise On The Reaping - Suzanne Collins ★★★★★ i really thought i knew the whole story of haymitch's games and that nothing in this would surprise or shock me LMAOOOOOOOO (this was devastating but so perfect in every way)

Lost and Lassoed - Lyla Sage ★★★★½ sometimes a book resonates so deeply with your soul that despite any imperfections you can't help but adore it aaaand that's what this was for meeeee 🫶

April

Scythe & Sparrow - Brynne Weaver ★ this series getting progressively worse when i rly liked book 1 actually HURTS ME DEEPLY. NOOOOO. (what didn't help this books case is i got a version that was incorrectly formatted so on top of being irritated by the plot i was irritated simply by trying to read it oh this was not a fun experience at allllll)(i rly should've dnf'ed)

First-Time Caller - B.K. Borison ★★★★★ this author is officially 5/5 for books i've read of hers that have BROUGHT ME TO TEARS. SPECTACULAR. GIVE ME 14 (MORE) OF 'EM RIGHT NOW. (this is a tiktok reference sorrryyyyy it just popped in my head as i was typing) anyways NEED THE NEXT BOOK IN THE SERIES ASAPPPP (except it doesn't come out til next year UGHHHH

Deep End - Ali Hazelwood ★★★★★ good drama 🙂‍↕️ compelling plot 🙂‍↕️ decent focus on their respective sports 🙂‍↕️ well-written characters 🙂‍↕️ a beautiful love story 🙂‍↕️ need a physical copy of this on my bookshelf YESTERDAY (or rly since april 25 since that's when i finished it)

The Cinnamon Bun Book Store - Laurie Gilmore ★★ instead of miscommunication (a trope that can sometimes work for me) THIS was ZERO communication. having to read a dual pov internal monologue about how they both doubt the other has the same feelings for them over and over and over again drove me a little insane!!!!! pls let the next one (christmas tree farm) be better bc the first one in the series is cute WTF HAPPENED

May

Tress of the Emerald Sea - Brandon Sanderson ★★★★½ first ever book from this author and i was!!! pleasantly surprised!!!! would the narrator have made more sense if i'd read his past works PROBABLY but!!! this was still so enjoyable so fantastical such a sweet lil story

The Christmas Tree Farm - Laurie Gilmore ★★★¼ deeply irritated with myself for not waiting to read this until the christmas holiday season (ok this isn't rly My Fault Completely ok the libby hold came in and i couldn't wait to read it). unfortunately featured mentions of both elon musk (meant to be derogatory tho...which...still no...don't put him in this cozy universe ew) and henry cavill (meant to be complimentary but he is my parasocial nemesis so i hated it) right at the beginning which...did not bode well for it but after i got past that and kept reading yeah the story was cute it was sweet sure!!!!!

Not in Love - Ali Hazelwood ★★★★½ i love the feeling when you're reading a romance book and you begin seeing how their relationship just Makes Sense. like. yeah. i can totally see how they're each others soulmates. they absolutely complete each other. I NEED THEM TOGETHER NOW. that sorta feeling lol. (also is this the first dual pov book i've ever read that had one character's chapters be 1st person pov and the other's be 3rd person pov??? POSSIBLY SO. V INTERESTING)

Rewind It Back - Liz Tomforde ★★★★¾ i scoffed at this being a second chance romance bc the One Other Book i remember reading w that trope was Good But Not A Fav BUT THISSSSS YEAH COUNT ME INNNNNNNN. and yeah!!! this did indeed make me sob bc it featured a plotline that i Deeply Related To OUCHHHHHH (complimentary). also....character my age mentioning a boyband obsession when they were a teenager???? I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE (A 1D STAN). what a beautiful finale to one of my favorite lil romance series can't wait to read whatever she releases next

Releasing 10 - Chloe Walsh ★★★★½ what a heavy heavy HEAVY read. and possibly my new fav from the BoT series.....the way this adds context to every single other book liiiike i need the next one ASAPPPPPPPPPP. (as a lizzie defender since day 1, this book only strengthened my love for her character)(i'm so serious i needed to jump in this book and Kill Some People)(IT'S THAT SERIOUS)(AND DEVASTATINGLY SAD)(also lizzie's songs are castles crumbling / wcs by taylor swift and hugh's is some protector by role model YUPPPP)(i am sobbing over the playlists i made for them)

Problematic Summer Romance - Ali Hazelwood ★★★★★ wdym this was full of so much yearning and emotion that at times i felt like i couldn't fucking breathe oh my god??????????? i'm literally still thinking about it i've genuinely gone back multiple times and reread all my favorite moments that i highlighted i already want to reread it i want to inject it into my veins i want to completely erase it from my memory and experience it all over again (but also ali...girl...wdym no epilogue tho like COME ONNNNNNNN)(anyways favorite ali hazelwood book favorite ali hazelwood couple quite possibly the only age gap romance i will ever be able to stand reading bc they will all get compared to this)(genuinely every issue i've ever had w that subgenre of romance was Completely Fixed And Perfect in this one HOW DID SHE DO THAT)

Ea’s Bad Batch Finale Rant

Here we go, doing this as I’ve done for ep.1. Of course SPOILERS AHEAD for the last episode (sigh, it’s all done and gone isn’t it?). Warning, this is going to be chaotic and emotional... so yeah, deal with it haha.

The intro… the eerie music… chills.

Is something bad about to happen or…?

Please leave Wrecker alone.

WRECKER NO

We are not starting on a good note, why’s Wrecker so beaten up???

This is not good, I’m not good.

I mean I know why, because of last ep beast, but c'mon why Wrecker...

“Clone Force 99 ended when Tech died” fuck If I’m not crying wow….

Crosshair shaking so much… nah I’m out already what the fuck is this.

Crosshair wanting to sacrifice himself, YO CHILL?!?

Hunter please discipline your children.

Dr. Hemlock x Rampart or did I just imagine the sexual tension?

Omega being so smart, her character development, the courage! SLAY GIRLIE

FREE THE ZILLO YUP

"Is it Omega's or Echo's handiwork?".... "Omega's." LMAO they know Echo doesn't fuck around that much hahaha

Emerie i give you one last chance.

green kid I feel you so much, I'm also afraid of heights hahah

here we go with the Incredible 4 (aka the super clones? enhanced clones? brainwashed clones? whatever....)

they give off a lot of "Avengers Unite!" vibe

ready to slay aren't we?

When I said slay I didn't mean slay the bad batch, just to be clear.

annd Hunter is a goner

Annnnd Crosshair is a goner too i guess?

WHAT THE FUCK NOT THE HAND???

Creepiest point the show has ever been what the actual fuck is this supposed to be a children show?

Yup Wrecker is done too.

Yo the scene where Emerie and Echo see his squad being taken away. I got chills, you can fucking see his reaction, the shock.

ECHO SLAY YESSSS ECHO THE OG ARC TROOPER HERE WE GO

Emerie don't fuck this up and get those kids to safety thank you.

CLONE RESCUE HAPPENING RN I'M NOT GOOD

Nala Se and Rampart too?! slay

Omg Rampart stfu for one second or just go away you're useless anyway

Not the squad being tortured

HUNTER NOOOOOOO

"We'll survive, but you won't" -> OOOOOOHHFFFFFFUUUUCK

Hunter be mine

Oh wow Nala Se I see where you're going with this.

Kamikaze?

Too bad we didn't have more Hemlock x Rampart interactions, boyfriend died, sad.

Aaaaaand 2 are down.

Bye Rampart and Nala Se, you actually were on my dead bad batch bingo list.

Rest In Peace Nala Se🙏🏻 you got redeemed.

Rest in Sass you bitching ass imperial Rampart 🖕🏻

UH Hemlock this was such a bitchy thing to do.

and here goes the chaos

Wrecker is so fucking menacing. HE IS PISSED

OK WRECKER IS MAD MAD and also scary scary now…

Hunter with that spear makes me feel things.

Uhhh he got it coming from a mile away

And Clone CX-2 is down….

So, uhhhh…. That wasn’t Tech uh……

So….

Tech was….

….Dead dead?

Like actually dead this whole time?

Fuck.

ALSO WHERE THE FUCK IS COMMANDER CODY PLEASE RELEASE HIS FROM HIS CAGE

NO ECHO fuck god

“Take a shot everytime the bad batch is on the verge of getting killed”

-> not me being absolutely wasted and with my nerves asking for mercy

Please Hunter, Crosshair, kill that bitch ass Hemlock

major disney villain vibe in the storm with the hostage secured to his wrist yada yada...

"DROP YOUR BLASTERS" well well well

Why is Hemlock’s screaming voice kinda sexy tho

I'm so sorry for what I've just said.

WET HAIR HUNTER FUCKING THANK YOU I can die now

CROSSHAIR PLEASE bciakwnfbhc I’m dying too here

You can do it YES you can do it

Crosshar leaning on Hunter like he did with Tech in the clone wars season 7 HAHAHAHA YUUUUP I've been fed.

Uh that was personal

Guys... that's enough. Yup I-I think he's dead now. Yes, definitely gone. Uh, you can stop shooting, he's cold. He also just fell off a cliff... HE DEAD DEAD!

evil space imperial boyfriends reunited in hell

The way Omega chooses to hug Crosshair first, as a DadHunter! stan I feel a bit betrayed but comprehensible… he just saved her not missing the shot.

with one hand tooo, kudos

group hug I'm so teary

Wait so they did it?

THEY’RE OFF PLANET!??

AND THEY ALL SURVIVED?

Oh wow I bet my money on Hunter and Crosshair to die but I was wrong?? This is… refreshing.

Look at them kids!! And the clone cadets, and the rescued clones!!!

EMERIE AND ECHO YESSSS

Look at them all cozy and happy

Nah Echo my man where are you going?

Rex mention pt. 2 or something...

Rex should have been there in the finale but ok i guess... a bit disappointed but still

Nah Echo should have been there for the last shot.

It’s over uh?

look at them, finally happy and free. WE DID IT.

WAIT NO IT ISNT OVER YET???

Not the flash forward I cannot handle it

Ok Pabu!?

YOUNG ADULT OMEGA fuck yesssss

oh she looks awesome

IS THAT HUNTER'S BANDANA

deceased. dead on the ground. dead like hemlock.

NOT OLD HUNTER LIKE THIS IM DEAD ON THE GROUND DECEASED IM FUCKING CRYING OH WOW

OMEGA IS SO GROWN UP

She’s a rebel pilot

"You're our kid" I'M SCREAMING

he chose to be a dad, I knew it

She chose to keep fighting

TECH'S GOGGLES THIS IS SUCH A FOUL MOVE

They should have included Wrecker and Crosshair in this where are they??

But also it’s as it began, Hunter and Omega and their father-daughter bond

“Bye dad, imma be a pilot and save the galaxy” aka “imma move out from the basement and live on my own”

Oh Hunter you’re an old man now…. My heart is aching but also it means he got to live a peaceful life until the rest of his days.

the beard, the long hair, the gray hair.... i wonder how crosshair and wrecker are doing? and echo?? and howzer? AND CODY?

like you cannot leave me like this? hello?

This is gone full circle now.

Well….

Goodbye Bad Batch! It’s been a pleasure!

(I’m still crying)

[drawbauchery]

As a head Hanamura Researcher, THE FACT YOU KEPT THE SCARF ON HIS AU DESIGN HURTS MY HEART, BUT IT'S SO PERFECT.

The sheer fact that he would keep the only thing he has left of his mother on him is perfectly fitting, and I could imagine someone on the bus asking about it and him just sitting there having an inner monologue in his head.

YUP YUP YUUUUP YOU CAUGHT IT

that right there is exactly why i keep that scarf on him

[francixoxoxo]

LOVE YOU MILLIE BTW

PROGRESS??? BEING MADE???

author ask game ⊹ . ݁˖ . ݁

tagged by @serenescribe my love!! thank you so much <3

total number of ao3 works: 62 !!

total ao3 word count: 287,232 !!

fandoms i've written for: (oh boy) the legend of zelda, dragon age, fallout, my hero academia, dimension 20, baldur's gate, homestuck, the adventure zone, sword art online, the magnus archives, minecraft, pokemon, rpf, stardew valley, it (2017 movies), fullmetal alchemist, game of thrones, arthurian mythology, heathers (1988), carrie (stephen king), dungeons & dragons, pacific rim, twilight, doctor sleep (stephen king)

top 5 fics by kudos:

whatever you wanted (slipped out of my mind) | the legend of zelda: breath of the wild

i don't know where i've been (but i know i want to stay) | baldur's gate 3

live to see the end of the world | sword art online

the first words of a life long love letter | the legend of zelda: breath of the wild

losing my mind, losing my mind, losing control | the legend of zelda: breath of the wild

most of these are from the same series, and total at around 7.5k kudos between the lot of them!

do i respond to comments? sometimes! when i was writing live to see the end of the world i got pretty badly scared off of replying to commenters, but if something's really touching or asking a question i'll usually shoot them a reply. part of me also feels like it's cheating to artificially boost my own comment count, because i'm a neurotic little freak of a man.

what has my most angst-ridden ending? jokes on you, i only write happy endings! undeserving of your sympathy is a fairly bitter ending, in all seriousness, what with lucanis and all of his problems.

what has my happiest ending? oof, hard question!

have i received hate? yuuuup. the comments of live to see the end of the world were basically a minefield of people demanding i write incest, hating that i was writing a ship they didn't like (that was clearly tagged), or insulting me for daring to besmirch the canon of SAO. it was a nightmare!

do i write smut? and what kind? yuuuup! i did kinktober last year and promptly discovered i have a penchant for writing virgin kink!

do i write crossovers? yup! the reason my fandom list is so long is because i have like two crossover fics that have multiple fandom tags.

have i ever had a fic stolen? thankfully, not in the traditional sense. i had a fic get caught in an AI scrape, but the dataset has been taken down and my works are all archive-locked now.

have i ever had a fic translated? not into another language, but the lovely sisi_rambles recorded one of my fics as a podfic! which was so lovely, i go back listen to it regularly.

have i ever co-written a fic? not really! i'm pretty regularly a sounding board for several of my fic-writing friends though. i love to spitball ideas and suggest weird shit

a wip i'll never finish? a couple! there's a few things up on my profile that are marked as abandoned/discontinued, because i didn't want to delete the few chapters that were up but i didn't want to lead people on thinking they might update.

writing strengths: worldbuilding and tossing in little tidbits of lore into the background. i also like to think i do well with punchy one-liners.

writing weaknesses: I AM NOT GOOD AT SPELLING, BOYS.

do i like foreign language dialogue? not particularly, as i am not particularly proficient in any languages other than english. usually if my pov character understands it, i'll just type in english italics to indicate a different language, and if they don't, i'll just use descriptions to show that people are talking in a language they don't speak.

first fandom i wrote for? lol, yugioh, wayyy back in the day. like, before i could use a computer kind of thing. we're talking in my diary as a child fic.

favorite fic i've ever written? live to see the end of the world, hands down. that fic took several years and taught me a lot about writing (both fic and in general) and i'm eternally so proud of myself for finishing it.

i'm also really fond of life is short (until it's not), which is a fic about pete conlan and my original character meeting that i wrote for @d20ficoff, an event i love that starts tomorrow!

tagging: anyone! whoever! idk who to tag so feel free to say i tagged you!
