“Those two things can exist at the same time. Like you said, it's all—it's all tangled up together, you and me.”

double page spread for one of my favorite luzo fics of all time, poly philtatos (the most beloved by far) by my good friend - @swordsmans!

I knew I wanted to do a double page spread the second I finished this fic and I drafted abt a dozen ideas before landing on what would ultimately become this. There were so many snippets and moments I wanted to illustrate but I ended up doing more of an abstracted version of the fic as opposed to 1:1 drawings of scenes 

“Those Two Things Can Exist At The Same Time. Like You Said, It's All—it's All Tangled Up Together,

funnily enough while the fic itself is told in zoros pov this spread is framed mostly through luffy’s eyes - his tears literally frame comp for their reunion, the moment he loses zoro, and the centerpiece of the first page which is this weird abstraction of him on the beach seeing zoros corpse-not-a-corpse in the waves just beyond his reach. 

“Those Two Things Can Exist At The Same Time. Like You Said, It's All—it's All Tangled Up Together,

gyro put the crane wives’ never love an anchor on the playlist for this fic which i heavily used as inspiration in picking ornamental things for the spread (the anchor, the fleet of ships by luffy, and the nautical rope splitting the second page). also just like. overall really heartbreaking lyrics guys 

“Those Two Things Can Exist At The Same Time. Like You Said, It's All—it's All Tangled Up Together,

there are smaller elements throughout the spread that are 1:1 references though (all i will say for these is if you know, you know hehe) i wish i had more time to do a lengthier piece for fanart for this fic bc it's one of the few luzo fics that have been rattling around in my brain forever now - once again please please please read poly philtatos if you haven't. gyro is a masterful writer and they deserve all the love! ok byeee

maybe it’s not so much zoro’s willingness to do anything for luffy that makes his devotion so special, but his happiness to be doing it.

when luffy gives him an order, it’s often accompanied by a smile on zoro’s face and a tinge of joy as he replies. when luffy goes somewhere, he follows with a grin and a content look on his face.

for zoro who is a quieter character, more serious in tone, his instant happiness to answer luffy’s orders and to do something for him is so gratifying. and i think it really emphasises his devotion that helping luffy, that being by his side, that being able to do something for him, etc, is what brings him absolute guaranteed happiness through his cool character trope.

zoro doesn’t feel reluctance following luffy’s lead, he relaxes. for years, as a teenager, he’s had to make executive decisions alone and there’s something in me that feels like he’s happy to give that up. to let luffy decide his course in the comfort of the people he loves. he’s a follower by preference, and he’s found his leader.

and of course he thinks critically, his devotion and loyalty is not blind. zoro is very importantly on an equal footing to luffy, unafraid of combatting any ideas or paths he doesn’t agree with. and that makes his contentment even more special because you know it is wholeheartedly transparent. he would say otherwise, and so that grin on his face is plainly, completely true.

his devotion is so special because it is his happiness too.

Listen I was fine with thinking the same thing about Mashima and Nalu in terms of shounen ships; he just makes them extremely close bc shounen friendships are always strangely the most passionate relationships in the entire genre, all the stuff with Lucy being naked around Natsu is just typical shounen fan service. Yep. Nakama. Titties. Same stuff. Don't read into it. These shounen authors don't think about romance unless its extremely apparent that they have a love interest for their MC.

But when this mf released the Edolas chapter

Edolas Nalu are MARRIED. WITH A KID.

Listen I Was Fine With Thinking The Same Thing About Mashima And Nalu In Terms Of Shounen Ships; He Just

Oh HELL NAAAAHHHHH

I am FULLY convinced this dude knows exactly what he's doing and fucking with all of us Nalu truthers

+the Nalu art he draws himself on twitter

The edging this man is doing with Nalu is one for the history books, a generational con atp

Bro is a villain

ragingpassive - I'd Rather Be Me
I'd Rather Be Me

It's actually depressing to do things in your own time, way and opinion. Mostly because people often disagrees with you and they prefer to do what's more popular now, and if you don't follow the trend, you're just a weirdo trying to fit in. A block in a jigsaw puzzle. But don't let it bring you down. There are still people who will accept you for who you are.
