shibalove

@luvrlu thank you!  I love your theme too hehe
            
            I know its been a while since I've updated, I got a little behind with crossposting onto here, I was too lazy to deal with chapter gfx / formatting here for a while and kept procrastinating ;-;  I have around 4 chapters of cmy in my backlog that I need to post to get fully up to date with my ao3, so hopefully I can get around to that soon ^^

I came across a post theorizing that Law could have the Voice of All Things.  Honestly, I've always had an inkling that he might from the events of Dressrosa (Wano threw me off a little, but there's still a chance imo!).  However, what that post noted which I failed to do was to make the connection between that and and his motivation to carry out the Rocky Port Incident during the timeskip.
          
          And honestly?  It makes a lot of sense & I feel a little silly for not realizing it sooner!  Until now, I found Law's pre-dressrosa interest in the poneglyphs to be kind of baffling.  But if he *were* to have VOAT, then he would have the capability to at least discern their importance like Roger did.  Hence his interest to investigate the one at Hachinosu.  
          
          That would then follow that the Hearts have come across at least one in their travels beforehand.  The one at fishman island is a good contender ofc, but there could have been others in the north blue / grand line as well.

@AnSyuhaDzi this!  
            
            https://onepiece.fandom.com/wiki/Voice_of_All_Things 
            
            Honestly it's still pretty vague on how it works.  Some sort of telepathy that's distinct from Observation Haki.  It's how Roger was able to understand the poneglyphs before recruiting Oden.

(finally) made a tumblr :P 
          https://www.tumblr.com/kagcyu 
          
          For now, it's extremely unorganized... but I'm thinking about posting some tidbits of the research that goes into the writing for Chimayoi and Miseria.  Miscellaneous, 'behind the scenes' stuff that's too ephemeral for a dedicated book here.   We'll see.
          
          If you're active there & wanna connect, lmk and I'll shoot you a follow!   Always interested in making new fandom friends ^^

            i was convinced that i had responded :/// i'm so sorry for this late reply TT
            been on and off my phone this past month because of my exams and missed all of it-
            
            choosing bepo isn't cheating at all omgg, he's like the heart of the crew
            easy answer or not, bepo is always on top idc
            i really, really want a side quest trope with more of the heart pirate crew just to see how ikkaku is dealing with all those men daily lol
            like at least nami has robin for emotional support, you know?? but ikakku? plus her chara design is chief kiss and i can totally see the dynamic with law!
            feel free to ramble about your headcanons, i LOVE hearing (well reading here lol) about people's opinions <33
            honestly if i had to pick, i'll go with penguin, but only if I had too cause arg- like why choose only one when we can like them all? (bonus point for jean bart, my guy went through a lot and I think he is sort of similar to franky with the strawhats, you know?)
            
            i totally get it :(( like how come color theory is so messed up for starter??
            constrast is so hard ;-; and i'm never satisfied with my work because the tiniest thing ruins everything ;v;
            
            i saw all of your likes and comment (just now lol, i'm coming back reaaally late TT) thanks you so, so much <33
            aw :3
            i used to be so happy when i was about idk, 12 maybe? and finding fics that got translated in french! like there's so much talent out there but language is gatekeeping  everything TT
            and english is like the language everyone speaks at least a little bit, i met a lot of foreigners friends like this a-ha
            but the hard working translation was worth it (i think) it's like practice for me lol
            
            (eustass kidd is my new roman empire, i used to find him loud and all but he's likeable somehow and his crew is such a vibe?? i want him back, please oda ;v;)

@orangesclandre 
            ...would it be cheating if I said Bepo?  Feel like that's the "easy" answer haha xD Seriously tho, it's so hard to pick a favorite but out of the canon members, but I'd say I've had a blast writing Ikkaku so far!  I like to take the interpretation that she's feisty but also distrustful and hyper-protective of her nakama if that makes any sense, I think it makes for such an interesting dynamic with Law.  But Shachi and Penguin are also such sweethearts -- the backstory they got in the Law novel endeared them to me by a lot :') Also no shame in admitting I've made so many headcanons of the unnamed members (could consider them OCs in a sense), but that's a whole other rabbit hole. Srsly, I could ramble on abt them forever >///<  Who are your favorites, if you have any? 
            
            And yeahh color schemes are so hard, aren't they? ;v; I struggle especially with having enough contrast(?) in my stuff, and my gfx ends up looking more monochrome as a result lol.
            
             and wow, thanks for letting me know!  I'll be sure to check out your Law fic then ^^  Fanfics  are already a labor of love, but man I can only imagine how much work it would take to translate to a whole different language 0.0  So kudos to you & thank you for taking the effort ^^ 
            
            (Also can I say that I absolutely love the handle for your second account-  xD  Eustass Kid, I will never stop rooting for you ToT)

            I seriously need more of them! there just aren’t enough fics about the heart pirates crew ://
            anyway—live, laugh, law :3
            do you mind me asking for your favorite crew member? if you've got one! 
            
            thank you so much <33!! I did make the covers myself :)
            (I struggled so much to find the right colors for each OC TT)
            
            aww—thank you???
            I’ve been thinking about translating them myself, but honestly... it's such a pain to find the right english words or expressions to express my mind that I almost gave up ;-;
            on my second account, @nahkiddwillbeback, I translated the beginning of my fic with law, 'a heart pirate carpenter (ugh, I hate the title but haven’t found the inspiration for a new one yet).
            the chapters are coming out really slowly because I’m trying to make them understandable with my broken english + don't have that much time to work on translating all of my stories... but if you’d like to take a quick look, here you go <3
