I want a fic about the founders where they purposely design Hogwarts as some sort of rejection of normative Muggle architecture. “This will be a purely magical space” they declare as they make a room that only appears when people want it hard enough, a room that purposely looks like it has no ceiling, staircases that will do everything to prevent you from getting from point A to point B in a timely fashion, and a freaking dormitory (with windows!) under a lake before Muggles even have the technology to make that possible.
Dedicated to @amaitsumi, who for some bizarre reason, watched the entire 5 hour stream of me drawing this image from start to finish and commented on it while it was being drawn. We also definitively found out which way Law’s finger tattoos were oriented, despite certain anime scenes drawing them upside-down.
Unstoppable forces. Immovable objects. Ace thought his whole life might have been made up of him crashing into one or the other. Garp. Dadan. Sabo. Luffy. The ever present ghost of Gol D. Roger. All of them, for better or worse, impossible to get past entirely, no matter how much he railed against them.
It had been frustrating to find that the Grand Line held walls too. Not as many, Ace could breathe better out on the water, but they existed all the same and the knowledge of that existence made Ace twitch.
