clownquixote an independent, private, & selective writing blog for donquixote 'corazón' rosinante from one piece. canon divergent with headcanon influences. oc and duplicate friendly. multiverse and multiship. loved by lala. twenty-six. they/them. hst timezone.

  SELECTIVE + MUTUALS ONLY   I won’t follow everyone back, as I only follow blogs that I genuinely see interactions happening with. If I don't follow back, please know it's nothing personal. I just have to be realistic with how many people I can feasibly write with. Additionally, please don't interact with my content if we are not mutually following each other. This includes my interest trackrer. That being said, if we are mutuals, my inbox and DMs are open!  18+ BLOG   I will only follow back and write with blogs written by people 18+ in age, so minors do not interact. If I can't find your age easily on your blog (e.g. main page, rules page), then I will not follow back.  PERSONALS   please do not reblog my content. You are welcome to follow and like stuff, but I will not follow back. If the personal is a hub for a rp sideblog, I will follow the sideblog for interactions.  DUPLICATES   This blog is duplicate friendly. I love seeing how others portray characters I also write. I only ask that any headcanons I write or graphics/icons I make remain mine unless we discuss otherwise. I will respect your portrayal and hard work and just ask for the same in return.  DO NOT INTERACT IF   you support any of the following: racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, incest, proshipping, etc. If I see any of this, I will block instantly. This includes fictional ships. I also will not interact with any blogs that genderbend characters or write HP muses/verses. If you see me unknowingly interacting with someone who is known to be continuously problematic, please DM me and let me know.  ACTIVITY   This blog will remain medium to low in activity, depending on my schedule and mental energy levels. I have AuDHD, so sitting and writing for long periods of time is difficult. I prefer to take my time and post things that I feel good about writing rather than forcing replies, so please be patient with me if it takes some time for me to reply to a thread. If it’s been 2-3 weeks and I haven’t replied to something, feel free to give me a gentle reminder. I do frequently forget things. Also, sometimes I get hyperfixated on certain threads or plots and I may focus on these for periods of time, but this does not mean I no longer have interest in other interactions. I will come back to them.

 INBOX  For inbox memes/prompts, I enjoy having options! Sometimes one prompt won't click and I can't come up with something, so having several to choose from helps me. Therefore, for mutuals, this is open permission to send me as many inbox memes, umprompted asks, or headcanon prompts as you'd like.  FORMATTING   I’ll do some formatting with basic icons/images, psds, some colored text, but otherwise, things will be simple. I don’t expect any fancy formatting from anyone I write with, and I more than likely will match what my writing partner does (ex. if you don't use icons, I won't either).  TRIGGERS   The world of One Piece is full of violent and disturbing themes. It is possible that these topics come up in discussion or threads. I will do my best to tag any triggering material using the basic #insert trigger tw, but if I miss something, please let me know.  SHIPPING   This blog is multiverse and therefore multiship. Overall, I ship chemistry above all else, which means interactions and build up will be needed, so pre-established romantic relationships for Rosi will be unlikely unless discussed in detail between muns. In regards to sexual content/smut, it is a possibility that it may come up. If it does occur, it will be properly tagged and placed under a read more. Finally, it should go without saying, but there will be ABSOLUTELY NO shipping of the Donquixote brothers or Rosi and Law welcome here. If that’s something you support, get the fuck out. CREDITS

  CHILDHOOD   Born a World Noble, Rosinante is the second son of Donquixote Homing and younger brother to Doflamingo. At 6 years old, his father resigned his status in order to live an idealistic commoner life. However, once villagers learned that the family were former nobles, the family was forced to flee and remain on the run while living in squalid condititions, leading to the death of Rosinante's mother. After her death, they would continue to suffer for two more years even to the point of being captured and tortured by the locals. Enraged, Doflamingo shot and killed their father, despite Rosinante's pleading.

  SENGOKU + THE NAVY   Rosinante was found wandering by Navy officer Sengoku, after he was left on his own. At this time, Sengoku took the 8-year-old Rosinante in and raised him as his own son. Convinced of the good the Navy could do and determined to eventually help take out the terror that was his brother, a 17-year-old Rosinante enlisted as a cadet in the Navy. He was skilled and intelligent and quickly rose to the rank of commander. It was during this time that he also ate the "calm-calm" devil fruit.

  DONQUIXOTE PIRATES   After 14 years pass since last seeing him, Rosinante returned to his brother and became a member of the Donquixote Pirates as an undercover agent, taking on the alias Corazón. In order to gain his brother's trust, he pretended to return to him mute, a little incompetent, and uncoordinated, giving the family the impression that his trauma had been so great as to have caused this. As a show of loyalty, he also had the family's jolly roger tattooed onto his back.

  MEETING LAW + FACING DEATH ...   During his time with the family, Corazón would come to meet Law, whom he feigned to not get along with at first. In an attempt to persuade the kid to leave the crew, Rosinante initially treated him horribly. However, upon learning more about Law, Rosi eventually came to care for him and ended up going great lengths to help find a cure for his disease. In the process of a six month trip to help Law, Doflamingo learned of his brother's Navy status and betrayal, and eventually shot him several times in the chest before leaving him for dead....

  MAIN ― NAVY MAN   After being shot by Doflamingo on Minion island, and despite his presence on the island being kept a secret from Sengoku, after he was left to die, Rosinante activated an emergency snail beacon before falling unconscious, alerting of his location and need for an extraction. Rosinante was found in the snow in critical condition, but still breathing. The extreme cold of the snowy weather had slowed his bleeding just enough to be saved.Once brought aboard one of the Navy’s ships in the vicinity, his injuries were treated as best as possible and his body stabilized, but in order to fully recover, Rosinante was returned to Navy headquarters. He was removed from active duty for an extended period, as the wounds sustained caused severe internal damage and required a long recovery process. Even then, after his injuries had healed, the Commander was placed on restricted duty, effectively removing him as a field agent, due to lasting damage on his body. Several years later and now a rear admiral, it's only been in the last couple years that Rosinante has gradually started to return to the field due to a sudden shift in the balance of world powers...[This verse follows the events of manga canon up to the point of Rosinante's death, then diverges. From the time of Luffy first leaving Foosha and up until Wano, Rosi has been gradually becoming more active in the field again, but still remaining relatively quiet so as not to alert his brother of his status. Still building on this verse and things might be changed here and there.]  DONQUIXOTE PIRATE   Several years ago, Rosinante was assigned an important undercover mission: infiltrate the ranks of his brother, Donquixote Doflamingo’s crew and gather intel in order to help the Navy/Marines take him down. Additionally, he was to carefully discourage vulnerable children from joining the Donquixote family. Thus, long-thought-lost Rosinante has reunited with his older brother and taken on the title of his elite officer, Corazon. Due to the trauma faced in their childhood and while missing, Rosinante appears to be mute, a little incompetent, and uncoordinated – or so the story goes. At least, it’s what the family assumed and accepted as the truth… [This verse spans the manga canon storyline up until the events of Minion/Swallow island.]

  alternate  

  RETIRED VERSE  After narrowly making it away from Minion island with his life, after a long and painful period of recovery and rehabilitation, and after failed attempts at locating Law due to being confined to restricted duty and a desk, Rosinante is tired. Five years after the incident on Minion island and after 13 years of service, Rosinante makes the decision to end his career as a Navy man despite being encouraged not to.Once out, Rosinante finds himself returning to the North Blue, to a quiet town on a small island where he settled and opened a café/pub. Since then, he has done his best to keep his life uneventful while hiding any information of his origin from the locals. [aka Rosi gets the quaint and quiet life he definitely deserves...unless somebody decides to fuck it up for him; this verse is open for more plotting and development.]  HEART PIRATE VERSE  TBA.  BUGGY PIRATE VERSE  TBA.  MODERN  TBA.
