Zoro would kind of be the perfect character to write traditional hanahaki fic about if you think about it -

Cause the whole Thing about hanahaki isn't just about unconfessed/unrequited love, its also about the deadly repression of that emotion and that bottling things up can literally kill you

Its a lot like qi in xianxia novels (what I have read at least) - negative emotions being a literal detriment to your health to the point where you cough/spit/vomit blood

So really, its the perfect plot bc by the time Sanji realizes that Zoro is in love with him; he thinks he's missed his chance because years have passed and the hanahaki is gone. But really zoro's just recognized and accepted his own feelings and is fine with it. The cook loves him as nakama and thats important, they work well together and Sanji is happy and that's important!

So he's Fine

Until....

Someone needs to hell me no. Tell me I have wips at home. Bc I have been gripped by the urge to write smth for mdzs

But its very silly

And its a little petty

But sometimes you read a fic with a great premise and you get a few paragraphs in and think to yourself

[Next 5 years voice] i can do better than that!

'I broke the world for us.' Is such a RAW fucking line. I want a million fics with that concept at the center. I want to dabble in some shit. I want some fucked up dynamics.

Ronan Lynch singing Dead Mom from Beetlejuice and replacing 'Daddy' with 'Declan' 😏

I feel like i could do something with an Atonement au but idk what

Man i love ignoring most of the actual plot of the dreamer trilogy to just vibe with Adam making various Harvard friends who his Henrietta friends mock mercilessly in the gc while he's like 'guys they're not THAT bad 🙄' and Gansey, fucking GANSEY of all people goes 'Adam I love you. You are a brother to me. A god among men. But if I were to say that same thing to you, you would have knocked me on my moneyed ass and rightly so.' Blue goes 'its about EQUALITY.' And Ronan sends 'you're a hypocrite, Parrish ♡' while Henry continues to tell an intricate story, line by line, in between all these texts that has NOTHING to do with Adam. He is Adam's favourite right now

Idea that goes nowhere:

Damen runs an ice cream truck. No, he does not need to. He is the heir of some mega rich family, maybe pseudo-royalty a la the Hilton's. Maybe he used to be famous. Maybe he still IS famous and just goes: 'oh yeah, tons of people tell me I look like that guy, ha ha. Strawberry or Lemon?'

He once didn't see Laurent, and not only did that bitch chase him down the block while barefoot, he bitched Damen out afterwards. Then bought all Damen’s stock and Damen had to drive all the way back to his garage to restock.

Laurent gave them to the neighborhood kids for free.

To this day, Damen has no idea and thinks Laurent is a heartless, cruel person who crushes the dreams of children for fun

I simply think they should kiss about it

Today's Thought bouncing around in my tiny brain: identity porn/missed connection au?

Damen's in a semi-popular Band and, mistaking Pop Sensation Laurent de Vere for a groupie, hit on him

Laurent plays along bc he finds it REALLY FUNNY

Idk when Damen gets hit with the clue bat, if its when Laurent's body guards come to collect him or when some girls come to get his autograph but I do know that Laurent is sitting on Damen's lap, twirling his hair and going 'wow you're like, ~so funny~'

> that post about the ballerina who showed up to sit in another dancer's dressing room and info dump about bigfoot until it was time for the dancer to go on.

That, right there, is the only way I can see Benzaiten and Nureyev ever being friends. He steals (snerk) into Benzaiten's dressing room and talks aimlessly but intelligently about cryptids and just when Benten is going to be like 'wow thats brilliant, actually,' says 'oh isn't that your cue?' And Disappears.

Ben comes home from that performance in awe. He can't stop talking about this ethereal guy he met. Were they God? Did he just meet God? Was it all a dream? All he knows is he met the person destined to know his true soul & didn't even get the guys name?

Juno's all 'aw my brother has a crush, lol'

This is Not True.
