HUGS! I demand brother snuggles once this is all over! And flashbacks of brother snuggles! And flashbacks of adorable. And more flashbacks of that becoming-brothers ceremony. And flashbacks of tiny!drunk!Luffy after the ceremony. And... many many hugs.
Whitebeard...
:( um, nobody dies in One Piece?
;____________; I don't waaaant him to die! But... the ominous and the foreshadowing and... :S
And the stabbed clean through and the blood and the being smashed with lava...
Eeeeeh! I loved the brotherlyness too! It was so shocking to Ace as a kid be such a j.d. I don't know how Luffy did it, but he really straightened his big brother out! Hee, I love the theory that Ace learned to be polite from always apologizing for his little brother's antics!
And Luffy doesn't care whether he lives or dies, he just knows he has to save his big brother! He's taken such a beating already though and with another hormone boost, how long is he going to need to recover from his boosts, not to mention the residual healing from the near-death by poison, the stab wounds, the Gear 2 and 3 aftereffects... I wouldn't be surprised if the prospective upcoming time skip after the Marineford arc is just to give Luffy time to come out of a year or three-year-long coma!
But Iva is so full of lols! "What the hell am I supposed to tell Dragon if you kick it?" Just tell him Luffy's his son, he ought to understand if he's as similar in spirit as you say! :D
The brotherlyness &hearts *melts into a puddle of fannish goo*
*snuggles lonely jaded little Ace, gives him a pet Luffy*
Heh. Recovery. Right. :S
:(
Luffy is going to be a mess when this is all over. I have heard the theory that there will be a time skip as Luffy recovers and I could totally see this happening (ow Luffy) but who knows what Oda will pull out of his magician's hat next?
Luffy? Luffy is predictable (except when he isn't). Oda... not so much XP
Ahahaha, Iva-chan &hearts Right, good luck with keeping Luffy out of trouble... BWAH!
Haha! I'd given up on trying to predict Luffy after he stabbed Laboon in the snout with Merry's mast and I've given up on trying to predict Oda since...ever! :D
but he gets a Luffy! I am keeping this is mind. It makes seeing sad lonely little Ace a bit better.
EVERYTHING WILL BE OKAY! *has faith in Luffy*
Marco... :S that. Looked painful. But he. Will be okay? Because of the phoenixy thing? o_o
Luffy will... sleep it off. And eat meat. And have lots of niichan hugs and then find his nakama and have lots of nakama hugs and then everything will be well in the world!
It's the blank, dead-person stare in his eyes at the bottom of page 6 that kills me. He just, he looks like he's completely dead on the inside, y'know. And he's what, 5? It gives me the chills just looking at it. It's just so freaking sad.
Late getting back to you (sorry) but yes! Oh Ace :(
He is. So broken. :( So broken
But then he gets a Luffy!!! And if Luffy can make Robin want to live after 20 years of "not allowed to exist" he can fix Ace's "should I have been born". And it seems he did, mostly &hearts
I'm still blown away by how different this Ace is from dine-and-dash dork!Ace.
It's absolutely amazing how Luffy's charisma just oozes out of the pages. Anytime that he shows up, especially when things are going badly, it's impossible not to just instantly feel like everything is going to be okay.
!!!!! THIS SO MUCH!!! Yes! Luffy just... we've been with him as long - longer! - than his nakama now and we know, just like they do, Luffy makes everything better. I loved their reactions to Luffy punching out the Tenryuubito. Loved loved loved because they were so unsurprised. And just - they were beyond resigned, past exasperation - "Not like it could be helped - he's Luffy after all!" That acceptance and complete faith. He's Luffy so of course he will do stupid,
( ... )
DUDE. TINY!ACE WASN'T A THUG, HE WAS OUT FOR BLOOD. His "They weren't dead?" brings me so. much. joy. Which makes me an awful person, but it makes for beautiful ideas and guh.
And, um, isn't Ace getting a hell of a lot of backstory? I mean, he IS Luffy's brother, but we're reaching "Become one of the nakama" level backstory, but .... WHAT ABOUT OYAJI? *crai* I can't see anything making Ace leave the Whitebeard pirates and Oyaji being seriously injured/dying at the end of this would only stick him closer, right?
AND WHAT ABOUT LUFFY? THIS IS BAD NEWS. WHERE ARE HIS NAKAMA? CHOPPER? CHOOOOOPPER! DON'T DIE, LUFFY. YOU'RE ALREADY WAY PAST YOUR LIMITS.
The "They weren't dead" line was... well it kind of makes me laugh because Ace you idiot but it's also kind of ow because you can tell he was really hurting.
The way I see it, Ace backstory is Luffy backstory, so I'm not terribly surprised that we're getting this much. I am actually expecting more. (Next flashback can we get Ace & Luffy's reactions to their first meeting please Oda!!!!!)
I do not expect nakama to appear. Though I would be gleeful beyond the telling of it if they did show &hearts
Oda-sensei is playing a concerto with our heartstrings! And we love him for it &hearts
I SOOOOOO hope that you're making the right call with the denden mushi!! OMG, that would be the killer, especially if the other Supernovas are still in Saboundy!

The asking for another hormone boost thought? To save his brother. Kind of a Luffy thing to do. *clings to him*
In One Piece, you do not predict Oda. Oda predicts you.
...okay, that's enough with the bad jokes ^^;

Ace!!!! Why is every scene you are in making me love you more and more?!?!
I'm so freaking worried about everyone right now, everyone! D:
Marco, I know you want to keep an eye on your Papabeard but don't forget you are fighting a crazy strong admiral!
LUFFY~!!!! PLEASE BE OKAY AFTER THIS IS ALL OVER! I can't wait for him to bust out and kick some serious ass.

I want the world to know that Luffy is awesome and GOING TO BE PIRATE KING GOD DAMMIT SO DO NOT MESS WITH HIS PEOPLE!!!!!!
&hearts&hearts&hearts
I think, though, that the Supernovas left Shabondy. Many of them said they were leaving and then we see ships...
But who knows!!!! (I want to know why Bonney was crying!!!!)
