The Sacred Burning Beast of Baldimore

[unij]

Oh my god One Piece, what are you even--Franky and Brook's stories are terrifying. Like, Franky's hilarious and badass but also terrifying, because it makes you think, oh my god how did he do all that by himself without any proper tools and it blows my mind to even start figuring it out. I'm a little sad it looks like they're going to make it so he doesn't get credit for the disaster and huge bounty increase, too. And Brook's thing... it's... ugh. So bad. Has this man not had enough to deal with already? Reduced to a circus attraction? It's terrifying DDDD=

Bluh bluh the latest plot at XI drove me nuts for a few days but I'm getting over it. Franky's the only one in the midst of it right now and lord knows he doesn't get bothered by this stuff. But Hajime was freaking out so hard that I actually lost sleep over it--took some brainwashing to calm him down, but now we're both feeling better about it. I can handle this, though I'm still miffed. I'm looking forward to events at 2C, it's been slow enough that I bet lots of people will make this latest stuff interesting.

Finally watching the Very Potter Sequel. It's awesome.

Day 25: A song that makes you laugh

When I was first moving into my dorm and getting used to this state, I kept thinking of this. It made me entertained all the way through.

Day 26: A song that you can play on an instrument

For a few years in middle school, I played the piano, prety much solely for the reason that I was tired of how my sister would play it and then when relatives came over they'd go "OOOOOOH CAITLIN PLAY FOR US ON THE PIANO." This was the last song I learned before my parents got tired of my whining about practicing and stopped paying for lessons. For years I could play it on muscle memory, and it's only been a year or so since I noticed that it finally has vanished for good.

Day 27: A song that you wish you could play

THIS is the song that makes me wish I still played the piano. LISTEN TO THAT ROCKOUT. Unf.

Literal Fridge Horror, yohohoho. Seriously if he's not on the page yet he needs to be put on. That's terrifying to think about.

Yeah, Oda's mastery of showing exactly enough to terrify you not only makes for better storytelling but leaves great opportunity for nerds like us to speculate or write fanfics or just go vomit. Noodle Incidents are always the best at capturing your imagination.

Ugh ugh ugh I would be so okay if we never saw either of them again. I don't even want to see them again if they die at the end, I want them to vanish into the ocean and be forgotten because I cannot handle more of that ridiculous skeevery that they bring with them.

I can't help the puns anymore. |D But yeah, he does, fridge jokes and all.

Noodle Incidents are always the best at capturing your imagination.

For good or for (violently) ill. Also yesss the speculation and fics and the like are awesome fun with a setup like this, because you know? If you want to go wallow in what you're pretty sure is behind that creepy narrative door for a while, you can, and then you can leave and close the door and go back to canon and the door is still closed. Or at least it's closed just enough that you don't have to look inside again until and unless you really feel like it.

Whereas with a really gritty in-your-face-awful canon, no matter how good it is, sometimes you just have to walk away for a prolonged period of time to get it off you. I can't stay a regular in Watchmen fandom for exactly this reason. :/

But with OP you can write fifteen chapters of fluff and nonsense and it's 100% true to canon's delicious flavor. You can also write fifteen chapters of complete horror, but you don't have to. It's not gonna hover around your head until you do.

Your take on the ultimate fate o' the skeeves is probably a better one than anything we'll get, because they're just...so completely gross that it has no place outside of the specific horror-genre feel of Thriller Bark. I don't need them to show up having a wacky bumbling adventure in bright colors and silliness because lol real sexual skeevery is totally suitable for lighthearted comedy, right guys? Guys?
