William P. Welsh - Burlesque Queen (1941)
Boys with big (hopes and) dreams :))
A non-Jojo post, because I like One Piece, too :)
I kept the boat and the fish from the original illustration - changing the boat was going to take me AGES without really adding anything (besides, I have Jojo stuff to make), and the fish is cute, so he gets to stay :)
ROBIN HOBB’S REALM OF THE ELDERLINGS >> Fitz POV Books
I sigh and set my quill aside. I have written too much. Not all things need to be told. Not all things should be told. I take up my scroll and make my slow way to the hearth. [...] I throw the vellum onto the coals.
I gotta say I'm obsessed with what Luffy does to the typical "sunshine" character trope, in that he's an exception to the usual portrayal but perhaps the most true to it of anyone. He's not "sunshine" as in pure niceness and sweetness and innocence. He's sunshine as in The Sun.
He's joy and light and warmth, illuminating all the beauty of the world, but he's also powerful enough to kill and blind and burn. He's an everyday annoyance. He's the strongest force of nature that exists. His happiness shines bright for miles. So does his rage. You could look at him wrong and be screwed up for life. You never want to live without him.
I can't get over this.
