not really related to the chapter but spoilers up to then. tho we knew about the harold fight being 14 yrs ago months ago but i wasnt really paying attention at that point

and getting the tattoo? really committing to the bit. he prob doesn't know it's evil control tattoo tho. or well, imu can do that anyway, not sure having tattoo matters

maybe playing it up too much really but that's what'd you'd expect of a celestial dragon. i'm surprised he can do deception at all tho. so not that similar to luffy lol

also really sweet loki calls her mother, so he did have at least one person who cared about him in the whole world. who then died uh

also cute loki's problem solving is similar to luffy's 'they're sick? bring them meat' dunno if he was reminded at all when luffy fed him meat

we're at 15 yrs ago and loki got chained 6 yrs ago

oh no istg if no one believes loki about the poison. or if he has to claim he's the one who did it to get someone to believe him. would be seen as the biggest traitor to harold. dunno if that's what happened, more likely harold got controlled by imu. timeline kinda wrong for that to be it too

also ppl theorizing were correct it is a tiered system for imu

continuing the history of fear and violence. yeah he's prob grieving and not all sane and caught up in it/sunk cost but still

fuck harold tho, complaining about loki instead of doing anything at all about it?? he's still never questioned anything about lokis injuries or anything. hasn't been there day 1. becoming a slave to govt it's fine attacking humans now ig as long as the marines say so

which is fine. but sometimes seeing it on my dash i'm like. who are these people. sorry i'm just being grumpy and annoying now. i want ppl to freely be creative but my brain is so damn nitpicky. don't let me stop yall from doing anything you want. yall also just dont stop other ppl either

this is why ot3 or orgy works for me tho. like, i do think they have a tension to them, i see their dynamic. just can't really get into it. i think another part of it is i don't like rival ships as much, but i do have some rival ships. another thing is it gets ooc real quick if ppl make them cute

i don't really ship zoro and sanji btw but not for that reason. i wish i did bc that's the biggest chunk of ship fandom i'm missing out on. idk there's a few reasons but i think what it really is, is just that i latch onto a fav (luffy) and if he's not there i'm not interested

-fine if ppl ship it too, i just see a lot of 'ew' takes when it pops up and there's always posts of ppl saying theyre like siblings

i feel like a lot of the real reason is just 'i don't like het' which is, fine. for me, yeah i don't really feel that much romantic or sexual tension between them, but they do have some cute moments, and they do love each other. someone else could draw different conclusions from it. but anyway it's-

-'write them off as a family member' argument odd. maybe they do remind you more of your relationship with someone in your family. idk maybe people do actually feel that way. to me they're all just peers in a friend group. i just feel like ppl are making up reasons tho

if this really mattered to you, the biggest example is right there. yeah i don't feel much romantic chemistry from say, luffy and nami, but they do love each other. or you can ship whoever for any reason, it doesn't have to be justified. you can dislike ships for any reason too but i find the-
