Welp, Law's Fucked.... I'm Going To Bed.

Just listened to My Demons by Starset and all I can think about is Sanji....

I need to know for science. Because I keep seeing different colors for different fics.

I dunno about you but I am a sucker for blue eyes. All of my favorite characters (with some exception) tend to have blue eyes. Maybe it's because I grew up surrounded by blue/grey eyes and was the only one with brown eyes.

Anyways, what about y'all?

slapping this badge on my blog

Just realised that the Polar Tang is a yellow submarine....

worst fears

synopsis: one piece characters worst fears in a relationship feat: straw hats (luffy, zoro, nami, usopp, sanji, robin) + ace and law warnings: angst + slight spoiler for ace's past notes: i honestly was a bit stuck for law's part so bear with me PLEASE also yeah not me finally posting things after ages sorry pookies

luffy

losing you.

LUFFY'S worst fear is that when worst comes to worst, he won't be able save you when you need him the most.

although he always tries to protect you, LUFFY has experienced losing loved ones before because he wasn't strong enough, and he never wants it to happen again. he loves everyone in his life so much, especially you, and never wants to lose them. but what if one day he slips up and the cost is losing you forever?

zoro

not being able to protect you.

ZORO'S unwavering loyalty to those he cares about means that he has made it his sworn mission to protect them at all times. in fact, that's practically his main role in the crew - to protect everyone from danger, so he believes he has to always do this right.

he works hard to protect those he cares about, and would never be able to forgive himself if he let something happen to you or was too late to protect you from danger.

he can't predict the future and he can't guarantee your safety at all times, and he hates it. he knows how unpredictable life is and that anything could happen at any moment, which makes him scared of what could happen to you.

nami

being powerless when you need her the most.

NAMI knows what it's like to have no one there to save you or protect you when you're in pain, suffering or in danger. thankfully, she found her way out thanks to her friends, but what if she can't help you?

when it comes to someone she cares about, she can't just rest easy when they need help because she hates seeing those she loves in pain. despite what people think, she would be ready to go above and beyond for someone she loves. she wants to do whatever she can as soon as she can to help you, and she fears that something could happen and make this impossible for her to do.

usopp

being replaced by somebody else.

USOPP wants to believe that he's just the guy you need, but he can't ignore his insecurities that tell him that he's useless and weak all the time. and this feeds into his biggest fear when being with you.

while you don't have an issue with his flaws, to him, his 'negative' qualities and weaknesses mean that he is easy to abandon. he feels like you being with him is just holding yourself back from something - or someone - better.

his worst fear is that you'll have had enough of the 'weak' parts of him, and that one day, you'll get tired of him and just replace him with someone else.

sanji

being a burden to you.

SANJI doesn't just love you - he practically worships your entire being and sees you as flawless and capable of no wrong. he sees you as someone who deserves only the best and nothing less. in comparison, he sees himself as someone who deserves basically nothing.

although you offer warm smiles in his direction and constantly assure him how much you care about him, he can't possibly understand how you could ever love a 'failure' like him.

he hates himself for thinking it, but he sometimes is afraid that your feelings are just fake or out of pity for someone like him. his biggest, worst fear is that he's just a burden to you and someone you're wasting your time on - and that and one day, you'll let him know it by just leaving him for good.

robin

you giving up on her.

ROBIN'S worst fear, in a way, is a little similar to sanji's. she doesn't want to be a burden to you because she can't forget how she was treated her whole life. people around her treated her like a nuisance and a monster just for her existence and where she came from, making her feel like she had nowhere to belong.

it's something she's been trying to unlearn ever since joining the crew, and she knows it's not very likely, but her worst fear is that you won't see her as someone worth fighting for, protecting, or loving anymore. instead, you too will see her as someone who doesn’t belong anywhere.

she's afraid that you'll see her just as how everyone has in her past - a devil whose existence only brings trouble to everyone.

ace

you stop loving him.

ACE has always felt like love is something that needs to be earned, especially for him. sometimes, he can't even believe how lucky he is to have someone like you - someone who doesn't care about the blood that flows in his veins because you know that doesn't matter to who he is.

however, his biggest fear is what happens if that love diminishes for good. he's afraid you'll start to be remember who he exactly is - the son of the world's biggest criminal, the pirate king himself. he's scared that you'll find him a nuisance to be associated with, and stop loving him altogether because of it.

law

disappointing you.

LAW knows that he isn't very openly affectionate and that he struggles to show his his feelings at times, making him appear closed-off and cold to others. although he does know that he really and truly loves you - his worst fear is disappointing you in the relationship because you may feel like he doesn't.

he knows what a healthy and loving relationship is supposed to look like and how other people show love, but he's afraid that he'll fail you by not being able to give you that. he hates the thought of letting you down when you deserve so much better than he is.

cw‼️: yandere themes, kidnapping, toxic relationship, slight nsfw suggestion

A/N: after finding out by @baby-tini there’s no yan alphabet of dabi, i had to contribute and be the first. Reblogs are appreciated!

MASTERLIST | DABI FLUFF ALPHABET

Affection- How do they show their love and affection? How intense would it get?

With Dabi it’s safe to say very intense. He feels everything so deeply, and he is very emotionally fragile too. He will give you his undivided attention and will expect the same in return. You should always look at him, nobody else. What he feels towards you is very unhealthy, his whole world revolves around you besides his other goals, he is quite emotionally dependent on you.

Won’t always shower you with the sweetest words but his actions clearly show the affection he has towards you, physical touch is actually this man’s love language.

Extremely clingy, always needs to hold your hand or your hip or touch your hair, always by your side everywhere you go.

Blood- How messy are they willing to get when it comes to their darling?

As expected from him, he is willing to burn everything down to the ground for you without any hesitation. You’re his weakest point and if anyone harms you ever so slightly, they’ll face a painful burning death.

He will also get rid of anyone that “threatens” your relationship, a certain friend, a coworker who was close to you (even worse if it’s a male). If Dabi gets the slightest doubt in his head that you are giving special attention to someone who is not him, it’s over for that person.

Cruelty- How would they treat their darling once abducted? Would they mock them?

I see him being able to calm you down with his strangely soothing voice and comforting words, you’d be screaming and crying and hyperventilating but suddenly he has managed to calm you down pretty good, grabbing your face gently with both hands and rubbing circles on your cheeks. He’s cooing in your ear that you’re such a good girl, that everything will be alright. He’ll kiss your tears, and tell you he’s gonna take care of you forever.

Darling-Aside from abduction, would they do anything against their darling’s will?

Other than kissing you, hugging you, making out with you and leaving marks on your neck, I do not see him going further. Dabi is more than capable to take you forcefully against your will and fuck you till you’re broken, but he doesn’t have the heart to, nor does he find any sick pleasure in that.

In his eyes it’s better to have you willing instead, he wants to make you fall for him in a way that has you hating yourself over such feelings. He will tease you, kiss you, make you feel hot and bothered but never take it further, until you’re the one actually begging him to do so. You’re the one who is suddenly grinding against him so needily, you don’t even realise it until you hear his low chuckle that has your cheeks hot. He loves the fact that you hate him so much yet your body is begging for his touch.

Exposed- How much of their heart do they bare to their darling? How vulnerable are they when it comes to their darling?

You won’t see him break down that easily at first, he knows you hate him and you wouldn’t care. Though as time passes you can actually see you and him becoming more intimate when it comes to feelings, mostly him, and it feels strange knowing that a fearful villain like him has in fact a fragile heart hidden beneath his cold, intimidating persona. He becomes more vulnerable with time, but not vulnerable enough to give you advantage of controlling him. He loves you yes, but he needs his own time to actually trust you.

Fight How would they feel if their darling fought back?

That bastard loves when you turn against him, he even encourages it sometimes, angering you on purpose just to see you trying to hit him. He knows he’s much stronger than you, but he still lets you hit him, maybe catching your hands to block you from movement, but he never hits you back.

To him you’re like a spicy little kitten, hissing and throwing a fit, 100% attack but 0% damage. He’ll call you little kitty too.

Game- Is this a game to them? How much would they enjoy watching their darling try to escape?

He enjoys a good game of cat and mouse. Just like any captive would do he knows you’d also try to escape many times. The thing is, you aren’t aware of the tracking device put on you, made by Skeptic at Dabi’s request.

Dabi gets a certain thrill watching you escape, thinking you’re so safe and finally able to go home, only for him to hunt you down again and bring you back to your real home. You keep him on his toes and he gets an adrenaline rush each time he plays with you like this. Deep down he has a sadistic side that loves watching you cry and kick him as he forcefully drags you back to the base.

Hell-What would be their darling’s worst experience with them?

When you anger him. Dabi is a very patient man, but if you take it too far by saying certain stuff that may touch his emotional side, that’s when you’re in for a ride.

It rarely happens when he really gets angry with you, but when it does you end up with burn marks on your body. He dangerously heats up the grip he has on you, and it burns so bad you keep crying even in the next days because the pain doesn’t go away. You learn it the hard way to be careful when you play with fire, because you’ll definitely get burnt.

Even if he didn’t use his quirk on you, the way his eyes darken has you shivering on your seat, its a sight that you’d never seen on him. Just like any other poor soul, you also learn to never get on this man’s bad side.

Ideals-What kind of future do they have in mind for/with their darling?

After having achieved his goals and turning the hero society to ashes, he plans to do his best to stay alive. If before he had made up his mind to die while taking down his dear ol’ dad too, now he will do anything to survive because your existence gave his life a whole other meaning.

In a world where villains have taken over, you’ll be by his side watching the world burn. He doesn’t see any other person next to him other than you, he is determined to keep you by your side till the day death do you both part.

Jealousy- Do they get jealous? Do they lash out or find a way to cope?

If there is a trait that would describe this man perfectly is jealousy. He is possessive, jealous, it feels like you’re walking on eggshells when interacting with other people in his presence. If he convinces himself that you looked a bit too longingly at someone else, or smiled a bit too much or were too friendly, he’ll hold it against you for the rest of the month.

If someone tries to get close to you or try and talk to you, Dabi will pop out of nowhere right beside you, wrapping a hand around your shoulder, driving people away with his threatening glare. People learn to always keep their distance from you and watch their words because they love their life enough to not get burned to death by the psycho on your side.

Kisses- How do they act around or with their darling?

Like I said, very clingy, very touchy, you need to be close to him no matter what, your hands must touch each other’s no matter what.

You wanna think of him as a devil, yet his kisses are heavenly, slow and passionate, but then they get rougher and more possessive as seconds pass by. His lips against yours and his tongue inside your mouth have you melting on the floor, it has you thinking and behaving in ways you’d never normally do. The fucker is a good kisser, it’s a good weapon he uses against you to have you gushing all over him, he loves the effect he has on you just by a few kisses.

Love letters- How would they go about courting or approaching their darling?

Dabi would learn the places you go to on daily basis, favorite cafe, your workplace/school, favorite shopping district, where you get your groceries etc. And then you’d suddenly run up to him, what a coincidence. Just more of an excuse for him to approach you and talk to you. His captivating blue eyes and husky voice easily pull you in his trap.

Flowers on your doorstep and written notes, letting you know how serious he is about you. You thought it was very romantic, but it wasn’t as romantic anymore after finding out later he is in fact a wanted villain.

Mask-Are their true colors drastically different from the way they act around everyone else?

Yes, because with you he gets to show his vulnerable side too, his deepest thoughts and feelings that he’d never show anyone.

Naughty- How would they punish their darling?

Tying you up in some dark room and not letting you out until he says so. It only happened once though.

Spanking is his favorite punishment, he’ll have you laid down on his lap, ass up as his heated palm comes down to leave bruising marks. He’ll have you count too and if you don’t count properly he’ll start from the beginning, getting off at the way you scream and cry.

You start thinking twice before doing something stupid again.

Oppression- How many rights would they take away from their darling?

No phone allowed until he trusts you enough, every contact with your old life is cut off, friends, family, everything. No going out allowed, not on your own at least, if you behave good he’ll take you out for walks everyday or eat in some nice place. Still he won’t go with you in crowded places until he’s sure you won’t pull off anything stupid to catch people’s attention.

Patience-How patient are they with their darling?

He is very patient. Doesn’t mean that he doesn’t have a certain limit which you must not cross.

Quit-If their darling dies, leaves, or successfully escapes, would they ever be able to move on?

The only way you’ll be able to escape him is if you die or he dies. No other way. If you manage to escape and go to heroes for help he would rather go wreak havoc and take you back with him rather than just sit back and do nothing. Even if you pull off some very successful escape and disappear off the face of earth, he will search the whole world until he finds you again. As long as he is alive and breathing, you shall never be free of him.

If you die, that’s another different story. It would completely shatter him from the inside, to the point he’d destroy himself. He’d blame himself from not protecting you good enough, he’d mourn by burning down everything and turning it to ashes, including himself.

Regret- Would they ever feel guilty about abducting their darling? Would they ever let their darling go?

Yes he would feel guilty. Unfortunately that guilt doesn’t overpower his love and obsession towards you. He is selfish and will keep you for himself, help you get used to your new life.

Stigma- What brought about this side of them [childhood, curiosity, etc]

[I don’t get this question I’ll let the readers fill it lmao]

Tears- How do they feel about seeing their darling scream, cry, and/or isolate themselves?

If he enjoys watching you cry at some point, he doesn’t like it when that crying and isolation goes for too long. He’ll try to give you your space, in hopes that you will calm down on your own. He gets you everything materialistic you could have wished for, pampering you in the best way possible, just to see you smile a bit.

Unique- Would they do anything different from the classic yandere?

Not sure. I honestly think Dabi as a character has some obsessive yandere traits, you can’t convince me otherwise. Because he is so consumed by his obsession towards a person, whether it is by feeling hatred or love, always thinking of them at some form, everything he does or thinks about revolves around the said person, his whole life is only about the said person. I totally see him behaving this way with a potential partner.

Vice- What weakness can their darling exploit in order to escape?

You could try to earn his trust, make him feel loved and seen, making him believe that you’ll never abandon him, you could use this as an advantage to plot your escape. But your weak heart won’t actually let you defy him and hurt him like this, it’s way too cruel.

Wit’s end- Would they ever hurt their darling?

Yes, sadly he would. When he’s lashing out at you his quirk might get out of control and accidentally hurt you in the process. Which he definitely regrets.

Xoanon-How much would they revere or worship their darling? To what length would they go to win their darling over

Dabi worships you in ways you’ll notice when he is all over your body, kissing you, doing anything just to give you pleasure, he doesn’t care for his own pleasure before yours, you’re the definition of beauty in his eyes.

He’ll compliment you and throw in flirty comments that have you trying to hide your blush.

Flowers, gifts, stolen trinkets, anything you have looked at for too long in the shopping mall he’ll get it for you. He’ll spoil you rotten, will go out of his way to get you your favorite jewellery that you’ve always dreamt of.

You’re a sight for sore eyes and he despises the fact that other people get the opportunity to look at someone as beautiful as you.

Yearn- How long do they pine after their darling before they snap?

I’d give it 5 months max. After stalking you, getting to know you better and studying you, he’d become so desperate to the point he finally kidnaps you. Dabi takes his time and makes sure everything falls into place perfectly before he executes his final plan, he is not one to rush things, hence why he is patient enough until the time has come to finally make you his.

Zenith-Would they ever break their darling?

If you’ve fallen for him and would willingly go back to him even if he let you free, means you’re already broken.

reminder to all 14-19 year olds girls. that grown man does not like you. you are a victim

It's with a heavy but hopeful heart that I watch Palestinian families fundraiser on here, slowly accumulating the precious little money to go around that they need to survive. However, not everyone is so lucky. A lot of Palestinians that have not had that kind of luck, that did not get early verification, that did not get massive platforms behind them from large bloggers, have approached me in my inbox, asking me kindly to do what I can for them. It kills me that I have so little to give myself, but I've seen this platform collectively raise enough to change someone's life. I've made a list of Palestinian fundraisers that are extremely low on funds, in the hope that drawing attention to people who have not been lucky at all can help turn that luck around. I know most of us can't possibly give enough to get all of these families safe in one go. But please, reblog this list. Pick one or two fundraisers, give what you can, and then keep track of it. Slowly, collectively, we can make a difference in these people's lives. Share and donate as much as you can. https://docs.google.com/document/d/178EGDFKkHlh3y4TMVX82kqgITHsqtoMdNccI2f_94Os/edit?usp=sharing

Okay I have a question

This might be a dumb question

But

How do I plot.

I mean the only way I know to plot is like okayy character A does this and then this happens and then it's solved.

how do we come up with the ...STUFF that happens in between the stuff that's suppose to happen. (Maybe all I have to do is sit down and think but I can't seem to do that)

Hey! That’s a really good question!

So, I’ve seen a lot of advice about plotting that basically boils down to “write down the plot of your book” but I’ve always found that to be a bit vague. Plotting really isn’t that intimidating once you figure out a method for it but if you’re starting from scratch, it can definitely be a daunting process.

My method of plotting is broken down into 3 basic processes:

1. Figure out the world you’re writing in.

Now, my personal way of doing this is by making a PowerPoint. I treat it like I’m crafting a presentation for a class. I give lots of historical context to my setting, mention cultural things that might be relevant. Basically, I just make a slideshow that I can refer back to when I’ve lost track of some of my worldbuilding.

Depending on your setting, this process might be more or less extensive. For instance, if you were writing in the present day in whatever setting you live in, you might only need to keep track of the dates and times that your book is taking place in. If you were writing in whatever setting you live in but twenty years ago, it might be a little more extensive, as you would probably want to keep track of things like major events, more local events, what technology was widely available, the cost of things, etc.. This part of plotting is especially useful for any science fiction or fantasy writing, as it can be a great format to keep track of different magic systems and other settings that are useful lore in your setting.

2. Establish your characters.

Coming up with characters is definitely most writers’ favorite part of starting a new story. Not only does it usually come pretty naturally, the characters tend to shape the world around them as you build their personalities and backstories up. Don’t let them run away with your world, though. It can be really easy to justify making worldbuilding things that suit your characters really well, but remember, you’re trying to create a convincing setting as well as interesting people within that setting. There are always going to be aspects of the world that work against your characters interests, as well as parts that they just don’t really care about.

Ultimately, I recommend making a folder for each main character you have. Include vignettes written about them/from their perspective. Add drawings and playlists! Have fun with it! As long as you make some kind of documentation of who they are/where they came from/where you think they want to go/where you think their part in the story will be, you’re going to get the hang of writing ABOUT them, which is the point.

3. Figure out a problem, a cause, and a catalyst.

A lot of what’s difficult about plotting is that you don’t always know what you want the story to be. Even if you do know what you want to happen, you don’t always know how to make it happen. This is why I format this process like a flow chart or in bullet points. You want to find the “problem” at the center of your plot.

Obviously, in your story, things happen. But what things? And why? But more specifically why here? Why now? Why these characters? Why in this place? It’s important to figure out not only what happens in your book but why that is what MUST happen. There has to be some inescapable force driving your plot forward (the desires of a character, the plans of the antagonist, global events, some sort of deadline) or else it will not feel like it is moving forward on its own, rather you will likely find it is very hard to “make” your characters do what you need them to. (Another piece of advice: if you feel like you’re having to force a scene to fit in a certain place in the plot, that’s because it doesn’t have anything that’s pushing it to happen right there and right then.)

This part does take a lot of writing (more journal style writing, rather than writing vignettes) but it is SO helpful when you actually start your first draft.

If you want, I can totally go more in depth about how to organize a flow chart or how I organize my billet points. I just omitted them because this post is already pretty long. I hope this is helpful! Sorry it took me so long to get to this ask.

Good luck and happy writing!
