(lying on the ground) calling velvet and phi siblings misses the entire point of phi's character arc!!!!!! they can have a platonic relationship but it /cannot be that one/
he isnt her little brother and thats. more than okay. it's the point of their arc in fact............
hot take: a version of the eizen sidequest where you somehow manage to turn him back would, if well-written, be more depressing than what we actually get in zesty :)
because he's already done shit hed regret while not under control of his mind AND it's inevitable it'll happen again if he lives life how he actually wants to :)
i think its fine to want to live like that but Eizen Clearly Does Not lol
I think it's really funny that everything around dezel and symonne's respective blessings in zesty is so dark and depressing and then in b with eizen its like. hey watch this (flips a coin 100 times and gets tails 100 times)
LIKE. we do SOMETIMES get into it with eizen but he dealt with all of it pre-canon and now he's just a slightly sulky pirate
