destiny, or whatever you want to call it

“His real name is Roronoa Zoro, but everyone calls him Pirate Hunter Zoro. He’s like a bloodthirsty hound… roaming the seas, hunting men for the bounties on their heads. They say he’s a demon in human form.”

One Piece Episode 1003 | 1010 | 1013

These three scenes from the recent episodes on Wano struck me as similar at first because of the way Marco, Corazon and Yamato say the word "Free". But as always with One Piece, there are other common threads woven in here - of Fathers, Fate, Loss, and Inherited Will.

Yamato has no freedom because he is the son of Kaido. Marco and Law, on the other hand, were both put on the path to freedom by their adoptive fathers.

Marco, the first son of Whitebeard, is no longer bound by his father's voice, or his will. He is free to do as he chooses. Yamato, who felt bound to remain on Onigashima by his father's will, is finally able to express his true desire with the help of Whitebeard's other son, Ace.

Ace helps Yamato break free – metaphorically – from the shackles of Kaido, and realize his desire to follow in the footsteps of Oden; the same way that Ace himself sought to break free from the shackles of Roger, and would go on to follow Whitebeard, picking up the mantle previously held by Oden.

Law's situation is a bit more nuanced; Corazon's words still have a hold over him, but not in a way that takes away his free will. Sengoku ensures that Rosinante's will, for Law to be free, is carried forward – by telling him that Corazon's love for him, that the act of saving him, is not tied to Law's status as a bearer of the Will of D. Where Law might have felt compelled to seek the true history in repayment of Corazon's sacrifice, he now chooses to do so of his own volition. This freedom is a recent development – for all that Corazon willed him to be free, Law never truly escaped the shackles of Doflamingo until the man was defeated – by Ace's little brother, Luffy.

Yamato rejects the hand dealt to him by fate in order to start on his path to freedom, whereas Law, upon finally gaining his freedom, sets out to find the meaning behind his fate. Their actions on Onigashima are driven by the will they inherited from another – Law by Corazon's will, and Yamato by Oden's – just as Marco's very presence on Onigashima is driven by the will he inherited from Ace.

Law lost the father that nudged him towards freedom, Yamato lost Ace, and Marco... Marco lost them both. Yet of the three it is Marco – who carries in him a bit of Whitebeard, a bit of Ace, and a bit of Oden – that experiences freedom in the truest sense.

vecna is dead, joyce and hopper get married

how do i cope with this it’s almost 5am and i’m running on maybe one hour of low quality sleep and i’m supposed to process that op is entering its final saga?? in just one fucking month? it’s too soon. we all knew it was coming. even if oda didn’t say shit we can all feel the culmination of everything he’s built into their universe thus far. luffy has the strength of an emperor, both in his own physical prowess and in his fleet. he has countries across the grand line on his side. he is the single biggest threat to the peace of the world government (sorry dragon and co). we’re reaching the climax of it all and i don’t know how to feel. i’m so fucking excited, yeah, to see luffy and friends kick some ass. i wanna see what’s gonna happen now that he can shift into nika. i want to know how his health is. i want to know their bounties. i want to see everyone’s reactions and i want to see where they go next. but also final is such a heavy word. the end of decades of a universe that’s loved across the world. yes, we can always go back. yes, oda deserves his long deserved break. yes, i’m so fucking grateful that i even got to see this beautiful universe with all of its quirks and flaws. but i can’t help but despair knowing that one day, there’s not gonna be another chapter. not another development in who luffy becomes. not another silly argument between zosan or another tall tale by usopp. not another moment where they’d die to save each other. not another moment where we see people fall in love with luffy for just being the embodiment of selfless good in what he thinks is his selfish way of living. we can dream and we can imagine and we can write our own stories but the original universe will stop. i don’t know. i have a lot of feelings about this and i hope you understand.

Have we talked about how Liam hid his plans and his love letter to Sherlock in the orphanage he lived in before the court case when he was little? 

Sending Sherlock to the place he lived before he was William James Moriarty, giving him his birth name, handing over all his schemes and all his feelings…I just…it’s so romantic. 

“Here is who I was. 

Here is who I am. 

Here is who I wish I could have been, with you.”

sorry i just like talking about one piece

Sudden thought...

I wonder if Roger sent letters to Rouge while he was sailing the Grandline... I imagine the dork sending her all poorly written little notes with a special code name she gave him, telling her about his adventures

"Moustache man to freckled flower; hi, I love you. I ate a lot of meat at Jaya"

"THERE IS AN ISLAND IN THE SKY, BABE"

"No you won't believe this, but... I got you something underwater. You will see it soon around your finger... ups, too much info... I love you!"

I wish we knew more about their love story, how they met, what they did. Rouge fell in love right away? Or did Roger have to work for it? Did Rouge travel with them on the Oro Jackson like Tokki?

Wonder if Roger thought of her when he found Laugh Tale... "My sweet Rouge, even if this last island is beautiful... nothing compares with you... funny... you are my dream after all"

Or even how Roger knew she was pregnant? I can imagine them discussing about the names, "if it's a boy I want to name him Ace... like a star"

Ah... Oda, I want answers!

i think its really neat how you have the obvious parallel of luffy and roger with their child-like sense of adventure, but also whitebeard and ace who have more family-oriented goals (and you can really see that in ace in how he settled with the whitebeard pirates and stopped senselessly throwing himself into danger just for the hell of it, because now he had a family, and a man he respected to call his father) and i only realized this recently, but you can also trace a parallel between oden and sabo as nobles who felt suffocated in their sheltered lives and wanted above all else to see the world and break the status quo

Crookshanks being an unpaid intern for Sirius Black is my favorite thing about Prisoner of Azkaban. He had that cat running ERRANDS. Ordering the Firebolt for Harry, stealing Neville's list of passwords. Crookshanks was Booked and Busy

I love how it’s canon in Moriarty the Patriot that Albert Moriarty got radicalized by a 10 something year old orphan. Like this man stumbled upon a bunch of kids chanting Death to bad nobles and was like so true besties
