Chill Out Man No One’s Taking Him From You

Men of progress

More of the AU where Crocodile found out who Luffy was during Alabasta. (Here is the first comic!)

I received this ask:

"I saw your post about your Crocodile reacting to canon Crocodile’s antics and was wondering what you see the follow-up being? like would canon Crocodile hunt down canon Dragon and give him a beatdown for leaving their baby with Garp? And/or would he try to be involved in Luffy’s life as a parent?"

I was talking to Salasana (who wrote an epic Crocodad fic~) about this on bluesky, who suggested that Crocodile would probably abandon Alabasta and "disband" Baroque Works (to later reform it into Cross Guild.) But since he never actually got defeated by Luffy, he doesn't have a lot of faith in his son's abilities to not die like an idiot. So he tries to get him to go back home with no success. The dialogue in this is by Salasana too ;3 I do think he'd try to have a relationship with Luffy, it's just off to a rocky and weird start *lol*

And yes, he would try to find Dragon and once he does...? Who knows what will happen! Hihihi.

everything, everywhere

// day 5: family

just wanted to try to make a modern AU with my favourite boys

Look there’s a flower in the water :33 OH theres actually two 🤭🤭 didn’t see the other one in Sanji’s hair for a sec

Don’t know how to describe Luffy other than ‘joyful’… but it works, right?

(Forgot about the watermark and reference photo! Fu-)

Hey man. Lets watch nosferatu together. Can you hold my hand if I get scared?

for the past several years now i've been telling myself that This Is The Year i buckle down and learn how to draw kissies but like fuck it This is the year

stock photos used! these were all partially traced for big/rough shapes and partially referenced; the further along i got, the more i referenced rather than tracing. kisses have been a thorn in my side for ages because i have such a hard time wrapping my head around the combined 3/4-away-from-viewer angle + tilted toward/away-from-viewer angle but even in this handful of sketches i found myself needing to like, figure out the angles less and less as i went. it's almost like intentionally practicing a thing makes you better at it. fucking crazy if true.

It’s so funny seeing non-science people write scientist characters. specifically when arcane fans write Jayce and Viktor and they’re in the lab just talking about “solving equations.” exquisite.

yo who up solving they equation
