Random Thoughts -that No One Wants To Know- While Watching Impel Down/Marine Ford For The First Time.

Random thoughts -that no one wants to know- while watching Impel down/Marine Ford for the first time.

ep 447 this episode is wild. I still don't quite get what's going on so Shiryu is bad again (I don't blame him), Blackbeard is here because ???, Buggy and Mr 3 are still ascending the levels and it somehow works because Luffy and allies keep the bad guys busy, Magellan has been running around the prison for ages but I can respect Magellan somehow. No questions asked, no "letting Blackbeard talk", just attack and move on - cool guys don't look at explosions poisoned enemies

ep 448 Ivankov is such a beast. I really enjoy this character! and as I already said last episode: Cool guys don't look at explosions falling stairways ahaha Magellans face after Ivankov reveals that his makeup saved him :D it seems like he lost a few braincells while watching Ivankov Luffy being genuinely nice to Buggy and Mr 3 and them not being able to take it <3

ep 449 Mr 3 came in clutch! Big ass wax wall ftw. Buggy being Buggy is just delightful also Crocodile and Mr 1 apparently took some lessons in chakra control to keep their footing on that makeshift door raft

ep 450 Buggy trying to take credit for the things he didn't do and Mr 1 and Crocodile constantly throwing shade at him

ep 451 Buggy and Luffy celebrating together is so cute. I wish they could be buddies aaaand Buggy is taking credit for stuff again Bon chan staying back to ensure their escape is just heartbreaking </3 even Buggy is sad. I hope Bon Chan gets out there alive, my heart :(

ep 452 oh, right, Blackbeard is still there... sorry buddy, I totally forgot about you existing for a moment It's nice to see Luffy and Mr 3 griefing for Bon chan Buggy, you are incredibly adorable when you are drunk, but honey... you do realise you made a mistake there talking to Luffy and Mr 3 about Bon chan as if he were dead? Don't just say they should cheer up, that has never worked. *sigh* Luffy and Buggy fighting and ignoring Jinbe while he gave a motivational speech. Yup, sounds about right. Random Extra on board appearing, having the same VA as Franky and Bon chan Epic phone call enters the chat. I like that Buggy was hyped like a little kid, when he heard about Luffy encountering Rayleigh also everyone's like: You know "Dark King" Rayleigh? YOU'RE SO COOL CAPTAIN BUGGY! I was not expecting Buggy to backpedal at all! ("I was just an apprentice on Rogers ship!") But he did. And right after he rushed back into this whole mess, even deeper than before. (Now that's my boy!) So I'll only say: I believe in you Buggy! Go conquer the world! Stay flashy!

Short scene that lived in my head for weeks. In my head Buggy is so oblivious to flirting.

----------

Buggy sat at the bar, looking at his empty rum mug. He was contemplating if getting another one was really worth it. This was all his wife's fault! It was her idea to come to this place because the food was said to be good. Who cares about the food?! The alcohol has to be cheap and good. Buggy had to admit that the rum was indeed good, but the price was absolutely ridiculous. "Hey handsome, what are you doing here all alone?" Buggy barely noticed the voice talking. Remembering his wife's smile when she had happily dug into her food he knew it was worth coming here, but still... if only he could have a little more rum without it blowing a hole in his wallet. 

A tap on his shoulder made him jump and turn around to face the assailant. It was just a woman. A woman with bright blue eyes and long wavy brown hair in a black and red dress. She smiled at him and repeated her initial question "What is a handsome man like you doing here?" Buggy blinked, this woman must be out of her mind. The pirate's mood shifted from surprised to annoyed. His eyes wandered to his empty mug "What does it look like?!" he answered sharply "I was drinking, but have you seen the prices here? They are absolutely ridiculous! Twohundred and fifty berry just for one mug of rum, ONE tiny mug! This is outrageous!" The woman just smiled at his rant and sat down on the stool next to him. "So which rum is your favorite?" , she asked. Buggy just pointed at a barrel behind the barkeeper "That one." - "I see, that's a good choice. So what are you doing here in this town?" Buggy stayed silent for a moment, trying to calm himself. His wife wouldn't like him starting a commotion even though he would really much like to throw his empty mug at the bartender. Speaking of his wife he turned in his seat looking back at their shared table before answering the woman. "My crew and I are docking here for supplies." His wife hadn't returned. Buggy didn't get the need to 'freshen up' in the bathroom, but it was his wife, he wasn't going to argue about this.

"Oh so you're a sailor then", the woman's eyes lit up, as she slowly started to scoot a little closer to him. Buggy noticed her attempts to be closer to him, but didn't know what she was trying to achieve. Then a thought crossed his mind, she was clearly trying to get close to him to steal his hard earned stolen money out of his pockets! His hand reached slowly for the bag of coins in his pocket, checking if it was still there. "I'm not a normal sailor! I'm a pirate! In fact I'm the flashiest pirate captain that you will find around here!" Buggy lectured her, breathing a sigh of relief as his hand touched his coin pouch.

Her eyes grew wide. Oh snap! Now he basically told her that he had money. Buggy mentally slapped himself. The woman motioned for the barkeeper. Buggy didn't even notice her ordering a mug of rum for him because he was so deep in his thoughts, trying to think of a way to make himself appear as a bad target for thievery. The barkeeper setting the rum in front of him startled him. Buggy looked puzzled at the beverage, then to the woman. "My treat! It's not every day you meet a strong and handsome pirate captain!" the woman batted her eyelashes at him. There it was again, she called him handsome again, clearly a ploy to make him lower his guard! But Buggy was smart, he saw right through her! Her compliments would not make him fall for her little tricks!

Buggy just nodded at her and took a sip of his rum, humming in delight as the drink slid down his throat. "So, what's your name?", she asked him. "I'm the great and flashy Buggy the Clown!" he responded eagerly. She looked at him as if she waited for him to do or say something. When it didn't come she looked a bit confused. Buggy had his body still turned towards the bar and gave her a side eye "What?!" The woman quickly composed herself again, "Oh, it's nothing. I'm sorry for staring, you have such beautiful hair, Buggy." She reached for locks of his blue hair falling down his back kept in a high ponytail. The pirate tried to evade her touch, scooting away from her hand. He was unsuccessful as the woman had already gotten ahold of a few strands of hair, slowly rubbing them between her fingers. She then put her hand down onto his thigh. "Buggy, you are just my type and I’m getting really hot. Why don't we take this conversation somewhere else?" she asked suggestively. Buggy's head was spinning, not even listening to what was said, this was a clear attempt on the money in the pocket of his pants just above her hand. He was not letting her have it. A small giggle that he would recognize everywhere snapped him out of it and his head spun around to see his wife had returned to their table, watching him and chuckling at the scene. Buggy briskly stood up, still having his hand wrapped around his mug of rum "It was... nice. I'll need to get back to my wife" he stumbled over the words as he quickly walked back to their table. The woman watched him leave gobsmacked.

When Buggy returned to the table he interrogated his wife "Why did you take so long? I was thinking about coming in and dragging you out of there! What did you even do in there!? I almost got assaulted! Why are you laughing!?" He usually loved when his wife was laughing but this time he had the feeling it was at his expense. "What do you think happened there, my love?" she asked him, trying to contain her laughter. "What do you mean 'what happened there'?! Didn't you see?! It was clear as day! That woman tried to rob me! She was giving me compliments and bought me a drink so I'd let my guard down! Then she was reaching for my coins, but she wasn't as sneaky as she thought, because I totally caught her in the act!" His wife laughed so hard that she couldn't breathe, Buggy just watched her in bewilderment. "Buggy! She was hitting on you", she breathed out between laughs. "WHAT?!"

After she calmed herself again she asked "Did you remember how jealous you got when that tall man in a suit hit on me last month in that tavern with the deer head on the front door?" Buggy had crossed his arms in front of his chest, clearly annoyed, and nodded. "So what exactly did he do, that made you jealous?" The blue haired pirate thought for a moment then started to answer "Well, he told you you were the most beautiful woman and then he tried to buy you- ohhhh" Buggy's eyes widened as the realisation hit him. Then his lips turned into a smirk "Well... I just got hit on! That's no surprise to be honest, because everyone knows the flashiest pirate in the east blue is quite the catch! I don't know how you can top this. You'll have to try really hard to win me over. I have options, you know?" he teased his wife. She laughed again, then replied "How about you finish your drink and then we go back to the ship and I..." she leaned over and whispered in his ear. His eyes grew wide and an almost devious smile crossed his face. Buggy had never downed a rum that fast in his life before.

Random thoughts -that no one wants to know- while watching Impel down/Marine Ford for the first time.

ep 467 Buggy shying away from the fight, that's how we know him. Buggys followers giving every little thing he says some epic and noble meaning, always putting him on a pedestal, he just can't do wrong (I feel called out. I would be one of them. Why am I so weak for this clown?) Jango having the same VA as Franky and Bon chan, love the voice. He's doing a great job. Buggys face as he finds out Dragon is Luffys father is priceless

ep 468 Whitebeard recognizing Buggy and Buggy just biting back without realising it's Whitebeard he's talking to because he just can't keep his mouth shut :D You can't tell me Whitebeard didn't know that Buggy was weak and that Buggy was just talking out of his ass, when he offered Buggy to form an alliance Mr 3s face in combination with the music after Buggy told him that he could take on the Marines if he got all out made me laugh so hard I cried Wait what?! Now Whitebeard acknowledges the strength of Buggy and the prisoners?! What is happening?? I for sure thought he was looking right through Buggy. Smoker, you are hot and so far you are my favorite Marine, but you won't be much of use Boa Hancock is delusional, but on the other hand quite cute when she gushes over Luffy

ep 469 Highlight: Luffy hugging Boa Hancock. And she's so overwhelmed, she can't take it. Buggy and his daggers are such a cool combo.

ep 470 Crocodile not accepting Doflamingos offer to join forces is refreshing one of my favorite scenes in the anime: Luffy getting Buggy out of Crocodiles sandstorm just to use him as a shield against Mihawks attack, and Buggy just being his usual self getting mad with Mihawk and gloriously failing his Muggy ball attack, resulting in one of the funniest scenes

ep 471 a whole army out of pacifistas... that's so cruel Buggy going live, he's so precious. In the german dub he says "My name is legend and I am a Buggy." and I can never forget about that such a rat... stabbing Whitebeard!

ep 472 I know what's bound to happen, but I still don't like it Aokiji freezing Buggy... I mean I know Buggy survives this, but if I didn't already I would be seriously worried for him now Whitebeard being the forgiving father, that's why his people love him, isn't it?

ep 473 Whitebeard enters the fight. That's got to be epic. Shit's about to go down. I know this story is about Luffy on his way to become King of the Pirates but holy moly, I want to watch Whitebeard in his prime. His df looks so incredibly epic and strong So out of the three admirals I liked Aokiji, I didn't like Kizaru and I had no opinion on Akainu because we didn't see him until now. I didn't think Akainu could be worse than Kizaru but here we are. I really don't like that man.

welcome to tumblr!!! it's always great to find new buggy fans <3 hope you will enjoy watching impel down, it's a really fun arc! (and get ready for marineford next, it's going to be a wild ride)

thank you!! <3 ohh I can't wait for the next episodes/arcs, I have seen some scenes out of context and I'm dying to find out the context.

I think I'll finish up thriller bark today and tomorrow I'll hopefully be able to start binging a bit.

Currently working on three separate drafts for Buggy stories. A bigger one and two of them were supposed to be one shots.

so of course I'm now looking at a "bigger one", a "one shot" and a fiction with multiple scenarios and multiple outcomes that I want to write (ALL OF THEM!!!) so the reader can chose which path to follow.

this is gonna take a while...

Hope the day will come that I have the confidence to just post it online, wish me luck.

"You are disposable!" Crocodile regretted saying those words the moment they slipped past his lips.

"Is that what you think of me?!", she asked, disbelief in her voice.

He kept silent. Crocodile hated how he couldn't reach out to her, say that he didn't mean it because she was in fact NOT disposable. But a glance to his "visitors" told him he couldn't show just how much she meant to him. Openly admitting that he loved her would endager her life.

As she left in tears, he only had one thought. She'd never know just how special she was to him.
