Hey hey! I wanna ask if you thought about any Vegapunk!Sanji AU? I just thought of it after reading your AUs
Like what if Judge made some sort of deal with Vegapunk, and Vegapunk suddenly has a little Sanji fresh from the dungeon. Judge thinks it was a waste of resources so he gave his kid to his.. enemy? frenemy?
Hey Anon, that hurts my soul. Ow. I made this sadder than it needed to be, actually, my bad
Sanji just being carted off in the New World to a man who ate a fruit that made him the smartest in the world. He lost the Lunarian he was working on. Vegapunk continues his work for the Government. The doctor looks sad sometimes, when he looks at the boy. Especially after he first arrived and they got the helmet off him. Sanji blinks at the island and what he's done with it. The harsh winter island warm and summery.
The doctor is a lot nicer than Judge and his scientists. He lets Sanji learn with him, about everything the Government was hiding. Vegapunk hides Sanji's knowledge through the experiments, an equal exchange for his life and knowledge he's gathering. Vegapunk takes to teaching Sanji with great aplomb and Sanji soaks the knowledge up like a sponge as he grows.
Sanji was probably determined to be a prototype of some weapon that didn't meet Government standards. When they meet Kuma, with the understanding of what's going to happen with his daughter and why he's doing it, they understand implicitly. Sanji, while a failed experiment in the eyes of many, is a capable living weapon for Vegapunk. His protection for when the inevitable happens. Even when the satellites are made.
Then they hear the news, about Sabaody, about Marineford, the Strawhat Pirates.
"Sanji," The doctor says looking at him making Sanji blink back at the man, "when they make it here, and they will. Go with them. You've spent enough time as a failed weapon. It's time to be a human."

General PSA's for begginer alt crafting
- superglue heats up when in contact with fiber, your craft can start smoking or even catch on fire
- you can wash clothing painted with acrylic paint in the washing machine if you turn it inside out and use the lowest temperature
- don't put painted clothes in the dryer.
- you can wash clothes with metal bits in the washing machine but use the handwashing setting, dry the metal bits with a paper towel before hanging them to dry, and know that it WILL be loud
- synthetic dye is needed to dye synthetic fibers and requires a long time simmering in a boiling pot. This WILL stink up the house and you NEVER want to make food in that pot again
- faux leather is vinyl not leather. Get vinyl paint to paint on it
- don't use your teeth as tools, they don't regenerate. Reconstructing enamel costs a small fortune (ask me how I know.)
- when handsewing a lot through thick fabric get thin needles, it will require less force and be less taxing on your wrists. When machine sewing get a higher grade needle (~130 for jean)
- embroidery floss is overpriced and not as strong as it looks. For sewing on heavy stuff get denim thread, it will last forever
- don't feed a 60$ home sewing machine ten layers of denim before you learn how much a servicing fee costs, these things are dellicate
- spray paint is best applied from 30-40cm away, in swift movements. Putting too much or applying from too close will cause drips. You can sand them down and apply a new layer of paint AFTER they dry. Wipe the can nozzle after painting if it's messy, you don't want it to clog and become unusable
- water based markers on fabric will bleed, if not instantly then with time, alcohol markers will fade with time
- most fabric glues are machine washable up to a certain temperature. modgepodge is not waterproof, hitack is handwash only. Check the instructions
- the flatter the surface the easier hot glue will peel off. Faux leather stands no chance, fibers like yarn will hold it best, but is impossible to remove the glue from them in the future
- rivets are a thing that exists, only require a hammer to install and can be used as permanent fabric attachment
- studs, gromets and other metal junk at small fabric stores are laughably overspriced
- acetone (found in nail polish remover) will remove acrylic stains out of furniture, flooring and faux leather, if used in excess can damage the laquer. Can also be used to remove prints and glue off of plastic (do a small test before commiting, might melt the plastic it it's grade is low)
- residue from stickers (and k-tape) can be removed with oil
- acrylic stains cannot be removed out of clothing or carpet so protect your area before painting and don't wear clothes you care about
- if your thread keeps getting tangled or snagging while handsewing try waxing it
- you can lock in screw-in spikes with screw lock glue if you're scared of them falling off because they unscrew
- you can add washers to screw-in spikes if you're scared of them falling through flimsy fabric or too big of a hole
- if you're making anything out of soda cans have a metal file on hand, they are deceptively sharp and will hurt you and rip through fabric you're installing them in
- bleach can be found in mold killing spray (don't touch that shit with bare hands. chemical burn.)
- fabric paints are no different from slightly dilluted acrylic. You can make it yourself by adding a bit of fabric softener to acrylic or honestly even water
- if you are setting anything with an iron use parchment paper or a pressing cloth to pervent your stuff from sticking to your iron and ruining it
- if you want a safety pin somewhere permanently pinch it shut with pliers
- as much as you can, avoid putting glue on clothing, it makes it really hard to change your decisions later on and upcycle the project in the future
- kiss your friends

HEY @sweaterkittensahoy LOOK AT THIS
Genuinely one of my very favorite pieces of art ever. It's a masterpiece of design, materials, and execution.
I never get tired of seeing it.
GOD. DAMN.
i used to have no hope for the future but now i'm thinking. i want rich people food. i want rare sirloin steak. i've never had sirloin steak in my life. i think i want to try it before i die.
i want to get some tattoos. i want to learn how to play drums. i want to go back to the ocean. i want to land a heelflip. i want to benchpress with big plates.
it crept up on me but i want i want i want i want to live. i want to live
do you understand? i am living this life for the first time. nobody has seen the world through my eyes. i am alive. i want to feel the dry warmth of the sun in my bones. i want to breathe, again and again and again. maybe even forever.
do you understand? this world is a disgusting place forsaken by the one above and yet. it is beautiful. i want to live.
Sometimes l'm late because I sit like this for a long time
once these 15 million different stressful situations resolve themselves I’m gonna be so normal again. I can be normal and not exhausted
