welcome to my circus tent

Oh boy. Some of the least sensual boys I can think of trying to seduce a girl lmao. This is gonna be fun

Suggestive. Teen and up audiences.

Kid

☆ Okay I am just going to say it up front, Kid has more fuck boy energy than anything lets be real.

☆ He’s that guy who sends constant dick pics to his girlfriend in attempts to be flirty and Killer is pressing Y to Shame in the background.

☆ And it doesn’t help that he has zero shame either. Especially when he’s drunk.

☆ His way of “seduction” is basically whenever he is feeling needy, he will just sit down right next to you, wrap his around your shoulders and grope you in various places.

☆ You both would probably have to already be dating in hopes he doesn’t get a kick to the jaw lets be real.

☆ He is NOT one for clever pickup lines. Anything resembling a pickup line is going to be really crude and not well thought out.

☆ “There’s a big sale in my bedroom, clothes are 100% off baby ;)”

☆ “If you don’t like sea king, I got another kind of meat you’d like ;)”

☆ “Do you got a mirror in your pocket? Because I can see myself in your pants ;)”

☆ “Eustass you’re making me upset-”

☆ In all honesty I don’t see his attempts at being sexy, flirtatious or seductive working, especially if you are just a citizen who just happened to go to the same bar Kid’s crew went to and he happened to find you sexy.

☆ The night likely ends with you squirming out of Kid’s grasp and roundhouse kicking him in the jaw while his crewmates snicker and laugh behind him. 

Ace

☆ “Ya like jazz?”

☆ Okay but let’s be real this boy does NOT know how to be sexy or seductive, and he’s aware it isn’t his strong suit.

☆ Because of this he isn’t one to be into seducing his crushes. But you are a special case and he wants to try his hand at it.

☆ This guy is probably the cheesiest guy you can think of when it comes to things like pickup lines, but he always gets nervous, which causes him to get tongue tied and messes it up.

☆ When he sees you at the mess table he stands by for a while and sucks in a breath with his cheeks dusted pink, reminding himself of all of Makino’s teachings and telling his body to not fall asleep now of all times before strutting his way to where you are sitting and leans over the table, supporting his chin in the palm of his hand while giving you a smug grin to get your attention.

☆ “You know, they say your tongue is the strongest muscle in your body. Wanna fight- I mean… find out.”

☆ You probably had to replay what he said in your mind and you can hear him murmur a “shit” under his breath.

☆ Take 2

☆ He clears his throat and tries again, doing his best to not screw it up again “So, do you have a new years resolution? I’m looking at mine right now~” ‘Yes! I got it righ-’

☆ “Ace new years isn’t for another 6 months.”

☆ “Dammit!”

☆ Yeah poor guy just… can’t flirt to save his life. But you can’t deny the fact that he is trying is still really adorable in a way.

☆ In a weird way, even with the screw ups in there he would soon find out that it does oddly end up working when you are pulling him by the arm to your room…

☆ What can I say, this boy is just too cute

Shanks

☆ In all honesty I can’t see him being seductive.

☆ This doesn’t mean he can’t be flirty! But he isn’t one for being “sexy.” At the very least not to someone who isn’t his yet.

☆ Believe it or not Shanks is probably the smoothest one on this list and actually kinda knows what he’s doing! But Shanks also is not that big of a fan of flirting, at least not intentional flirting

☆ When he does intentionally tries flirting it comes off as more cheezy and romantic than actual seduction. Something usually along the lines of:

☆ “Do you believe in love at first sight? Or should I walk by again?

”☆ “I’m the pirate here, and yet you are the one stealing my heart!”

☆ His flirting comes off more cute than seductive, and I mean how could it not?

☀️ One Piece of Summer ☀️

A Summer Writing and Art Challenge!

Today is the official day to kick off the summer challenge! Below you will find all of the important information about this event to ensure a successful participation!

Also just want to remind all of you that this is not a contest!! There will be no winners or prizes. This is intended to be a relaxed event for you guys to create some fun summery content with your fav One Piece characters! Please don’t feel pressured if you choose to participate in this event. 🌻

The moon spies on you at night while you’re asleep

Dadan and the rest of her mountain bandits are actually superheroes in disguise.

Heroes always have to share their meat with other people (why do you think Dadan always shares her meat with us if she hates us so much?). Pirates don’t have to share anything.

The stars are all baby moons that haven’t grown up yet. As they get older, they’ll grow, and one day, the entire night sky will be full of moons.

When Mayor Woop Slap was younger, he accidentally made a sea witch angry, so she took away his happiness. That’s why he’s always so angry.

Makino is half mermaid, that’s why she’s so pretty and kind.

Your eyes turn blue when you lie.

The sea hates devil fruit users because it’s jealous.

I can always know when you’re doing something I told you not to because I’m your big brother.

Zoro

Having a clumsy s/o is a bit confusing for Zoro

On one hand, he finds it a little funny

Watching his s/o trip over Luffy, drop a wrench while helping Franky, or spilling something. 

He’ll snort at the behavior a lot, because it’s cute and charming in its own way. 

On the other hand, it means he has to keep an eye (his only one) and an ear out for them because they can get into some trouble. 

Falling off the ship during a storm happens too often. Then Luffy jumps after them and Zoro has to save BOTH of them! All three end up back on the ship, Zoro looking annoyed, his s/o looking bashful, and Luffy laughing uncontrollably while Chopper checks on them. 

Sometimes Zoro has to move his s/o out of the way from bumping into things. People, tables, chairs. If he realizes they’re going to bump into it, he grabs their arm or tugs their shirt to put them on a less bothersome route. 

But then one time, they trip on the stairs. And Zoro about loses his mind. 

He’s angry and scared, yelling at his s/o to be more careful, cradling their head in his hands. 

He isn’t going to lose them like that. Not like Kuina. 

He’s extra cautious then. It was cute when it was just dropping tea cups and bumping into Nami. 

If he sees them even near the stairs, he tenses up. Sometimes even rushes to their side to go down the stairs together. 

“Stop being a klutz.” He grumbles but holds his arm out for them to take anyway. 

“It’s cause you’re too clumsy.” He says while grabbing their hand on their walk. 

“If you let go, I’ll kill you myself.” His tone is much more scared than they would like but they get it. 

If they apologize about their clumsiness, he brushes them off. 

If they get hurt because of it, he just marches them to Chopper. 

If they CRY because of their clumsiness? This boy is a stressed mess just trying to help. 

He likes it when the others help out too. Like if Usopp sits closer while they’re fishing or Robin sprouts arms to catch his s/o. It helps him a lot. He knows his nakama love his s/o too and that makes him extremely happy. 

Law

Oh no

When he first finds out how clumsy they are, Law tenses up and leaves the room

If they injured themselves, that sucks. Shachi can fix it. 

Clumsy holds the weirdest place in his heart. He adores the clumsiness.

He does his best to catch them or move things out of their way. His power helps a lot. 

They get so used to being moved from place to place by his power because of their clumsiness

He patches them up if they get hurt, commenting on how they need to be more mindful. 

He’s very teasing to his clumsy s/o. Calling them a klutz and mocking them a little. All in good fun, it’s just who he is. 

Drops something. “Oh, shi-” 

“(Y/n)… did you really….” Sighs. “Of course you did.”

He’s the only reason they still have any dishes, saving them with his devil fruit powers. That doesn’t save them all the time, but they do still have cups so Law calls it a win. 

When it’s late at night and Law finally goes to bed, he traces over the marks and bruises his s/o has. Careful not to hurt them but taking inventory just in case something happened and they didn’t tell him. 

It’s also during those late night moments that he whispers to Corazon to stop plaguing his s/o like this. One klutz was enough, thank you. 

He eventually does tell them about Cora. How clumsy he was, how much he meant to Law. How every little bruise and cut reminds him of Cora. 

On the battlefield, he is extra cautious. Always trying to look out for them, but sometimes just sending Bepo or Penguin (MY BOY) to keep them from accidentally causing harm to themself

He can’t always be the one to save them. He has to protect them first and foremost. 

Then after the battle, he checks over them thoroughly to make sure that they weren’t in dire need of attention or did anything extra stupid. 

Not that he thinks they’re stupid, but their perception of their environment sure isn’t great. 

He gives them a talk after about how he’s glad they’re safe. 

“I’m surprised you didn’t hurt yourself more than this.” 

Stop closing your eyes, stop scrolling past, stop thinking it’s not your problem. I’m a white person and might be talking especially to white people out there not being enough aware. It’s the time we say stop, and we need to stop standing still, it’s not a “Black People’s problem”, it’s not a problem “out of our community”, it’s humanity and decency and rights to live and BREATHE not in constant fear. We have voices and privilege that somehow makes our voices worthier to whatever else? So we have to use it, to fight RACISM and SYSTEMIC RACISM that’s sitting inside all of us and in our everyday lives. We need to be all on one side, so there won’t be sides anymore.

I’ve been following all the recent news since the George Floyd murder and I’ve found some good stuff to stay informed, understand what’s happening and start do something. I thought about sharing.

Please SIGN all these petitions and help demand JUSTICE for Black People that have been murdered and their names forgotten. All you need is 10 minutes of your time to sign all the petitions on both pages, every petition has a paragraph explaining the history of what happened to that black person and what you’re signing for. We’re also talking about black children murdered, a pregnant black woman beaten causing the loss of her unborn baby.

Keep reading if you want to do more as you should.

If you can DONATE (not to change.org, donations won’t go to associations but to them to “support the cause” but you better donate to help the protestors and/or the victims), TEXT or CALL asking for justice and help bring awareness and justice for Black People.

STAY INFORMED on what’s happening (by @utenas). Other ways to support/be an ally (by @calmholland). Stand with #BlackLivesMatter. Enough to be silent. Make posts, talk to people, raise awareness and learn.

Watch and read these:

George Floyd NOT resisting the arrest (no death scene)

Brooklyn protest before NYPD incited violence

Cop getting replace because he was crying/showing sympathy for protestors

Woman named Latonya speaks peacefully in a protest in Austin, Texas (that’s the full protest video, she speaks at minute 27.27 + other videos 1, 2)

Police being the real violent ones: - verbal/physical aggression towards a peaceful protestor  - showing palpable excitement like it’s a fucking game - acting violent towards protestors - shooting rubber bullets against journalists/reporters - pepper-spraying an elected official black woman - attacking with a bicycle a harmless woman, sparkling violence - attacking peaceful protesters who are sitting harmless on the street - LAPD beating a peaceful protester - more videos of violent cops at #BlackLivesMatter protests - actor/activist Kendrick Sampson being beaten for defending a protester - white policeman maced and pepper-sprayed a 10-years-old child

Police beating Black harmless People (a man and a woman, a child)

Nice things: - Police officers joining protests in New Jersey & Miami - Hispanic/Latino people showing support for Black People - White old woman and black man meeting in a store - Black woman twerking to the police - Atlanta Chief of Police Department (named Erica) actually listening protestors: 1 + 2 (the woman speaking at 1.25 broke me in tears) + 3 - White people barrier in defense of black protestors from police

#RaiseTheDegree

+ understand and recognize your privilege, hear the call to action to not just be not-racist, but BE ANTI-RACIST:

Rihanna’s NAACP speech that calls for unity, solidarity and not considering all black people’s problems as their own only: “Imagine what we could do, TOGETHER”

Billie Eilish callout to white privilege

Jane Elliot speech on white privilege and conscious silence towards racist attitudes and behaviours

A Guide to White Privilege by Courtney Ahn

Privilege is when you think something is not a problem because you’re not personally involved

cherryemojigirl via TikTok on white privilege

Comparing whites’ privilege and black people’s lives

Whites protesting for haircuts // Black People protesting for THEIR LIVES

You don’t need to be Black to feel outraged

Ava DuVernay’s call to action

Major proof of media being white-controlled

6 years ago it was still the same, nothing changed

It’s not only America. It’s a plague affecting the whole world. (example)

Don’t go for #AllLivesMatter, your life matters, Black people’s lives are not being treated as human lives, they’re being murdered with bare hands or shot for doing something that would cost a 1-day-in-jail max for a white person. That’s to that we need to focus the support and solidarity and protests and asks for justice, because they’re the ones being killed and mistreated, not whites. #BLACKLIVESMATTER

#SAYTHEIRNAMES

Sandra Bland whose mugshot was taken when she was already dead

Layleen Polanco (black transgender woman, 27, found dead in police custody)

Breonna Taylor (shot 8 times in Louisville in her home, March 13, 2020)

#JusticeForFloyd, #JusticeForAhmaud, #JusticeForBreonna

George Floyd, Trayvon Martin, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, Tamir Rice, Oscar Grant, Eric Garner, Philando Castile, Samuel Dubose, Sandra Bland, Walter Scott, Terrence Crutcher, REGIS KORCHINSKI-PAQUET, Tony McDade, Ira Latrell, Christopher Mitchell and many others who don’t deserve to be forgotten.

It’s not Black People vs. White People. Black People are fighting for their rights to BREATHE and LIVE day after day without the fear they could be the next. Put yourself in their shoes: it’s not whites and blacks, it has to be people AGAINST racism. It’s JUSTICE, it’s EQUALITY, RIGHTS that Black people deserve as they’re humans like all the other people and have nothing less than them.

lets beat this fucked system together.
