top five iconic Damen moments go. If there’s too many give me top ten. This is urgent scientific research.
oh my god you are so lucky i have a long train journey today so here we go, in no particular order because hell if that is possible :
when he threw a mf broadsword. a sword that is meant to be swung with two hands (!!). and he just casually yeeted it from the back of a horse. into a guy who was about to kill his enemy who wasn't even his lover yet
kingsmeet. kingsmeet was the Pinnacle of the man. he broke his country's most sacred rules without even fucking hesitating out of sheer rage and love at what had been done to laurent get this man fucking husband of the year
obviously it has to be "i speak your language better than you speak mine, sweetheart" no man has ever been so stupid and yet so sexy
every moment in book three where he's like "did i fucking stutter."
"damen rose from the throne, and put his hand to the gold brooch at his shoulder. his garment dropped, and the crowd roared their approval" cock out and thriving. king
when he chose laurent he literally chose laurent over his kingdom he was prepared to sacrifice it all for him this MAN
when he was screaming crying throwing up at having to tell laurent who he was and laurent was just like "i know." sksjsks you dumb fucking bitch OF COURSE HE KNEW everything you now know about this man and you think he doesn't know the man who killed his brother god i love you how can a man be so smart and yet so. so
"i think if i gave you my heart, you would treat it tenderly" sobbing. literally sobbing on a train. he's so sweet he's so gentle he loves laurent so much. he's so. so. also that scene where he tells laurent if auguste hadn't died he still would have courted him. once he starts loving laurent he literally cannot conceive of a world where he does not love him i'm crying
he's beefy. it's not an iconic moment it's just his natural state of being but it's iconic to ME. his arms could hold me so good. his tits are as big as his heart. his ass? bouncing. his thighs? could crush me and i'd welcome it
his dimple :')
there we go it started out as a list of iconic damen moments it ended as me rambling about everything i love about him what can i say he lives in my head rent free i'll never find a man like him

I love so much that “Bepo is Law’s weakness” is arguably canon. It’s not “Law’s weakness is cute things” like some ppl in fandom try to say since Law is pretty visibly unaffected by Chopper, little kids, all the standard “cute things” in OP. It’s literally just Bepo and his cuteness that has an effect on Law, and we see it in reaction to Bepo going “🥺” when Bepo was sick, letting Bepo hug him all the time, taking Bepo to Uta concert only bc he knows Bepo wants to go, etc. LawBepo is such a perfect ship, massively underrated ship frfr 🩷🩷🩷🩷
there is this very good compilation pic from @/daily_trafalgar on twitter with a caption "law's reaction to cute things"
you mean barely a reaction
and then there is Bepo
Bepo is special he is spoiled and coddled and can do anything he wants with barely a word from Law. i do think Law is good with kids but Bepo is a grown man - his best friend
and as much as some lawbepo non-shippers want to see them as parent and child -you dont see someone YOU grew up with. YOU were children at the same time with - and grew up alongside each other as a CHILD. You just don't see them as that, it's nonsense. Yes he is like law's little brother but not a child
(i call him Law's baby like 20 times a day but that's in a way that a cute girlfriend is "baby")
Saying all this to say that "oh Law is weak to Bepo's cuteness because he is like Law's baby" (implying child) or even worse = when people call him a pet They grew up together - 4 year difference is forgotten about -you are peers - yes of course Bepo is both subordinate and looks up to Law as an stronger smarter leader etc. but thats not a parental dynamic at all.
its a very serious, rational and collected guy and his favorite guy who he spoils in big and little ways and have been spoiling him their whole lives...
i love that Law saved Bepo from getting his ass beat and dying alone and brought him home and they just stayed in that dynamic their whole life and both became adults but this "Bepo is precious and weak af and i love him" pretty much didn't change.
and Bepo is so comfortable with it. novel was Law focused so it never gave Bepo an "I'LL TO PROVE MYSELF TO YOU THAT YOU DONT HAVE TO PROTECT ME ALL THE TIME I CAN HOLD MY OWN" arc - and that would make sense for his character if there was time/desire to focus on him but because of those constraints Bepo bypassed that and i kinda love it? (you can call it another of many copes of mine idc) but him NOT having a standart "little brother" arc is awesome, Bepo is very comfortable in his role and when he speaks its always
"I'll do my best for you and help where i can because you are so amazing" there is zero of his own ego. He is comfortable in his "lower rank" role, he doesn't strive to be Law's equal he knows he can't be! Law san is the greatest!!
Law is happy with it too because he is a protector in nature (look at his bigass crew ;-;♥) so bepo being HAPPY to be protected makes him happy too. It makes Law feel strong and good, it plays on his ego in a positive way being looked up to and sought out as a protector - yes it's pressure (that Bepo does his best to elevate) but it's not negative and Law takes it happily, it's good to feel needed. And it all started with Bepo and they preserved that - Law is always strong and cool leader and protector and Bepo is always UUUU CAPTAIN 🥺😭🥺😭🥺😭
they are the best and i love them so much it's such a special dynamic and it makes Law's character so much better

ok but like the implications... the rest of the dragoons stay and fight in ran'dellah. they probably returned both out of loyalty and bc they all have their own atonement to seek tbh. they chose to follow dion (or in his place, his will) again even if it means more battle and the possibility of their deaths. he will honor that decision. NOT his baby though!!!!!! terence doesn't get to dig a grave of duty and contrition!!!! he gets a future, bye!!!!!!!

the way Jean feels about the Ravens is really mimicked in the way he feels about exy. it's all he has, he pours his soul into understanding it, he has no other support structure holding him up, he loved it once, he hates and resents it, its trapping him, he still loves it.
I expected his feelings towards both to be so simply hateful and bitter and yet they're so enmeshed with who he is as a person and he cares about them so much despite the harm they've done him.
like with exy, the game is inherently violent but exponentially more so on the Ravens. even standing still in front of Jeremy, Jean is always going for a trip or a painful takeaway, not even considering that exy doesnt have to break people down. but he still takes pride in the sport and being so good at it and knowing it inside and out. and part of that is necessity but part is just his enjoyment. he was a little kid once that was fascinated with the game. it didn't always just hurt.
and with the Ravens, all of them are violent but some of them are also kind to him and he learned all about them and what they care about and who they love and wants to protect them, even from the knowledge that he's being hurt. "they didn't know." they all betray him and turn a blind eye but theyre all he has and theyre the only constant in his life. he wants to protect them. even from their own grief and regret.
“I hate them,” Jean said, and left. It was the cold hard truth; it was a blatant lie.
He loved the Ravens, he hated them, he wished he’d never met them.
"I was under the impression you and the Ravens hated each other.” “We do,” Jean said. “We don’t. We are Ravens.”

I love the detail in your latest Mr. L update of Mario holding Luigi's hand! Plus the whole gang's immediate protective stance
Thank you!
I don't know how canon it is that team Mario is essentially The Luigi Protection Squad, but until I see evidence otherwise it's canon to me.

You see the serie "Cells at work" ?
You see the macrophages ?
Well imagine a Caretaker like this.
Caretaker covered in blood, with a bloody chainsaw (or any mortal tools), smiling/giggling while fighting Whumper and reassuring Whumpee that everything is under control.
That’s the kind of deadly Caretaker I want to see!

you know the scene where Nick comes out to Imogen and before they go upstairs he looks at each of their supportive friends (which gave me the absolute chills) and then he finally looks at Charlie;
everyone keeps saying isn't it cute how he looks at Charlie for comfort, which yes it is cute but i think that yes Nick is scared of coming out but he's looking at the reason why it is so fucking worth it
