[X] Help the others

The oath, aaaah I've been thinking of this for a while. What would Taylor want? After Golden Morning she wanted to do better, to be better, and I think in many ways that factors into her dream. But at the same time she also wants to be able to be happy, to live a life she won't regret.

Am I projecting? Almost certainly!

Your oath...
[X] To live a life she can be proud of.

@RavensDagger I'm so sorry to hear about everything that happened. All I can say is please take care of yourself and do what you need to do.

As much as I would like to get off the cannon rails (at least a little) I do think we should cross reverse mountain at some point.
I figured we'd go do some of the other islands in the East Blue from movies maybe first to get Taylor some more levels.

[] Help the others
[] Keep on reading
I thought that with our bugs and crabs we could just do both of these? Some bugs have vision more than good enough to keep reading.

[] MY DREAM IS TO DESTROY ALL FEDORAS!
Admittedly I was pushing that when Kaya started wearing one, but I'm not sure we can declare that now since we didn't even try to eliminate Kaya's.
Maybe something like...

[X] "To become strong enough that I never have 'no other choice' again."
I was thinking something like "To be strong enough to break Fate" as a reference to Contessa and the Simurgh, but this is good.

Taylor's done a LOT she's not proud of. She doesn't really regret them, but she's far from proud about them.

Also... Old Yeller flashbacks... First time I watched that movie I cried for over an hour (I was 6, don't judge me).

I like how both the oath choices are kinda the same thing just worded different.
Feels nice to see us all on the same page for once.

-- I like how this is worded enough that I'm voting for it. It's not quite what I had in mind for Taylor, I was thinking something along the lines of 'finding a place to belong' but this works for me.

"A book on Haki," Taylor said. Tashigi gave her a confused look
Didn't Tashigi already know about the book? Unless I'm very mistaken, she was trying to get us to turn the book in to the Marine HQ in Loguetown right after we bought it.
Edit: Found it
She had found a good haul of books, even one that Tashigi was insistent she shouldn't buy and should instead hand over to the nearest Marine headquarters.

The chapter isn't threadmarked, btw.

@RavensDagger I'm really sorry about all the shit you've had to deal with recently. I hope things get better for you, and please take care of yourself.

I had three dogs and all of them are dead.

One died from poisoning when I was like six years old. The neighbour did it, that's why we moved to another city.

One thankfully died of old age.

And the last one was run over by a car.

That's why I don't have pets anymore.

Beautiful

Also, no idea how this would work narratively, but
[X] don't move for the mountains! Make the mountains move out of your way! PLUS ULTRA!

There's more to living a life you can be proud of than just being strong enough to not need to take the ruthless/morally dubious path.

It can also include being a better friend, having fun, etc.

Not having no other choice or breaking fate are all well and good, but they're limited in scope. Being able to be proud of the life you live can involve all aspects of life and is a goal that is always worked at.
