AAAAAAAAAAA

i love zolu fics where luffy is the one leading the relationship because i find the opposite so out of character. inexperienced luffy? yes. shy luffy who's stumbling over his words and his action? luffy???

he does everything with full confidence. he doesn't know how to do it but it doesn't matter. he just does things, sometimes it works, most times it don't, but he does not care about the outcome. luffy just does.

opla zolu shippers don't even know about this and it's tragic

I don't care what people say but luffy and zoro definitely have something going on. Whether or not its just loyalty is totally up to the viewer but you cannot deny their bond is unbreakable.

We love an attentive boyfriend, have you guys watched the live action? It gave me a bunch of butterflies

What did people think Luffy was to Zoro when they saw them together? Luffy doesnt carry a weapon of any kind so he cant be a hunter like Zoro, they look too close in age so he cant be an adopted child. So logical conclusion, Luffy must be Zoro’s boyfriend

Guy getting his shit beaten by Zoro and Luffy: Wow, Pirate Hunter Roronoa Zoro is gay, I didn’t know that

luffy may not play favorites but he WILL always say hi to zoro first

Its been a while since I drew something

are you really an ao3 user if you've never read a >50k fanfic that is incredibly fucking good, much much better than any original work out there, with eloquent writing so deep and poetic that you have to pause after every few sentences, process it and scream into a muffled pillow?

bonus if you're supposed to be studying for something or other but decided to read just one more chapter, and finished the whole thing :')

OMG, THIS IS SO FUCKING CANOOOON

harry: i think cedric is secretly poisoning me

hermione: why?

harry: whenever i see him, my heart rate picks up and i start to sweat

hermione: he’s not poisoning you, that means you like him

ron: ...

ron: that bitch

Enies lobby (again??)

IDK but thinking about how after luffy managed to defeat rob lucci, zoro responded with "got me scared for a moment" my god, zoro was scared of losing his captain, im not okay? I get that he'd die for luffy, but i still can't handle this?!

I can't help but to think of alabasta, when sanji explicitly stated that zoro was feeling scared for luffy (that luffy might lose), and then zoro got genuinely offended "ME...? SCARED...!? SAY THAT AGAIN...."

But then look at him in enies lobby? He openly admitted to himself about how for a moment he felt scared FOR his captain, and im just?!@#$% character development indeed

OK SO, enies lobby. After zoro expressed his relief, unfortunately not long after that it turned out that luffy was unable to move his entire body (at that particular moment), AND poor zoro... he was literally panicking and losing his marbles, even at that time robin was more composed compared to zoro (the same zoro who didn't cry for merry btw, even robin shedded a tear)

Zoro is a very calm person but when it comes to luffy facing real danger, he will most definitely lose his mind???

Legitimately can't stop thinking about how often zoro loses his shit over luffy (and probably from the very start.. orange town most likely)

Zoro. One of the most emotionally composed, level-headed person out of all the strawhats. But when it comes to luffy? Suddenly he is losing all composure. He is Roronoa 'im all beaten up but gotta save luffy from drowning in arlong park', 'i cant stop worrying about the luffy vs crocodile fight', 'how dare you hurt my captain?! I will CUT you', 'LUFFY CANT MOVE HIS BODY AT ALL, AND IM GENUINELY FREAKING OUT', 'nothing happened in thriller bark', 'im still pretty much battered, but luffy you cant do that you idiot, let me do it for you' Zoro

AND those things above are just a few examples from the top of my head? and all of them are only from pre-TS era??

His captain is both his strength and weakness (and the rest of the crew too, no doubt! but like most importantly, his captain.) And ughh, i need to chill a little bit
