Hello, it's Van J Levent!🍀

This blog is my main one and it used to be a Witcher fan blog, but I decided to make it a personal place where I can post whatever I want and just chill.😌

My carrd (with links, commission information, etc.)

My Witcher master post

My art in this blog can be found under the tags #my art and #Leventart art

My personal project under the tag #ILLGRESI_pp (when I finally start posting something x))

I know that this post is not very informative and I will try to add the necessary tags and links here in the future. 😅

UPD (27.09.2023)

So I watched One Piece LA and I absolutely and totally fell in love. I watch anime very slowly now to get to know the world and characters. And I have to say I'm a One Piece fan now. Despite the fact that my personal favorite is Sanji and the fact that I love ZoSan pairing, I also love all the other characters and am absolutely chill with other pairings. So no hate or other rude things regarding characters and pairings in my den. As I write this, I haven't drawn any fanart based on the OP yet, but I will definitely do it. I will also probably write something small, but be warned that I love Hurt/Comfort and Fluff/Angst. I can write very dark and heavy stuff but a happy ending is always guaranteed. I don't write sm*t and detailed s*x scenes. Somehow I prefer to build tension just with touches and little things between characters.

Please keep in mind that I am not a writer and English is not my native language. But, apparently, writing is my hobby, because I like it very much.

UPD (23.10.2023)

I thought I'd add here my Spotify playlist that I listen to for inspiration when writing or drawing (currently One Piece). It is replenished periodically.

***

You are absolutely free to use any idea I have written for your fanfiction and other stuff.

As a final note this blog is 18+ due to dark topics so please if you don't fall into this category or don't want to see my posts make sure you block me. And when I say dark themes, I mean violence, depression, war themes, torture, and so on. Please stay safe!

Zoro's katanas visual reference sheet in English (translated by me)

Covers 和道一文字 (Wado Ichimonji), 雪走 (Yubashiri), 三代鬼徹 (Sandai Kitetsu), and 秋水 (Shusui)

Notes under the cut:

You have to open the image in a tab/download it and zoom in to read it, sorry!! I couldn't figure out how to vectorise the text :(

The original tumblr upload in Japanese is here, the sheet itself links to a deleted pixiv site so I have no idea where it was originally from, but it definitely seems to be written by Oda

Please let me know if there are any errors!!

I'm not Japanese nor do I speak/read it, I just used google translate + a lot of googling and wikipedia to look up japanese sword terminology. I can also read kanji so that helped a bit

Some other random notes if you'd like to reference the original post:

柄巻 (tsuka-maki or tsuka ito, lit. hilt wrap): rope wrapped around the outside of the katana

鐔 (つば)* - tsuba, sword guard; generally a round metal plate with a central wedge shaped hole for the blade and if needed up to two smaller holes for the kozuka or kōgai *note: Oda uses the hiragana when referring to the tsuba

柄 tsuka: The tsuka is the hilt or handle; made of wood and wrapped in samegawa (shark/ray skin).

目貫 menuki, The menuki are the decorative metal ornaments the are woven under the tsuka-ito (handle wrapping). These ornaments were originally made to hide the mekugi pins that secure the tsuka to the tang of the blade

鞘 saya: traditional wooden scabbard

腰差し koshi-zashi: something to be worn on the waist, can specifically refer to swords

丁子乱れ, "clove disorder" choji midare – an irregular hamon pattern resembling cloves, with a round upper part and a narrow constricted lower part.

鮫皮 samegawa: the ray or shark skin wrapping of the tsuka (handle/hilt), is wrapped by the tsuka-ito

頭 kashira: The kashira is the pommel on the end of the tsuka.

鐺 kojiri: The kojiri is the end of the scabbard (saya) or the protective fitting at the end of the scabbard

下げ緒 sageo : The sageo is the cord used to tie saya to the belt/obi when worn.

直刃 suguha: straight temper line (hamon)

乱刃 midareba: irregular temper line (hamon)

刃文 hamon: border between the tempered part of the ha (cutting edge) and the untempered part of the rest of the sword; the temper-line.

Temper line (刃文 hamon) designs

Left to right: suguha (straight line), gunome (wavy line), choji (clove), notare (gentle wave)

Well, yeah.. It's been a while.. I've moved from twitter to bluesky and I'm starting to slowly but surely return to ZoSan there. I will share sketches here as well.

Modern AU about Zoro, a retired police officer with an injury who one day, on advice, decided to adopt a dog from a shelter. Sanji works at a pet shelter and is hiding from his crazy father. Zoro ended up having three dogs now because he couldn't find another reason to see the curly eyebrow again. The dogs are very different and their names are the names of swords from the canon. Zoro absolutely loves them. In addition, it turned out that Sanji and Zoro live in houses next door and Sanji now helps Zoro with the dogs when he has time. Zoro also learned that Sanji always dreamed of being a cook, but for some mysterious reason he no longer cooks. So at some point, Zoro invited him to his place, supposedly to help with the dogs, and in the end he unobtrusively asked him to help with cooking, and now for the umpteenth time Sanji is in charge of his kitchen, joyfully humming to himself while cooking for a group of friends with whom Zoro promised to introduce him. It turns out they both know Nami, Vivi’s girl who, being the daughter of the owner of a large corporation, often donates money and food for Sanji’s pet shelter. Nami's smile when she sees Sanji at their little house party is very sly.

Zoro begins to feel that he is finally getting better.

Sanji feels a little bit happy.

Until one day Sanji's brother appears on his doorstep and declares that his father has a "task" for him.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA IS THEIRRRR MOREEEE?!?!?!?!??! I WOULD DIE FOR MOREEEEE!!! AAAAAAAA

[leventart-den]

I'm sorry but there's nothing else T_T I don't have time to write anything at the moment, but I'm very happy that you liked it and if you want to write about it yourself, you have my full blessing 😭

[leventart-den]

Okay, I need to get this out of my system. Don't get me wrong, I'm all about ZoSan (although I don't mind and support other pairings). BUT. After that episode in the Wano arc where Law sees Sanji as Stealth Black… Well. I'm weak, Your Honor. My brain can't stop thinking about the one story about these two that I would really like to read as fan fiction. So if anyone has seen something like this somewhere please let me know. Or maybe someone would like to write? Here's the idea. Law and the crew on some island are dealing with some evil bastards and at some point one of his crew members runs up to Law and is all alarmed. He says that they checked the basement of the lair and found someone, but they are not sure if they are mistaken. Law rushes there and is horrified to find Sanji. Chained, beaten, with obvious signs of torture and in a semi-conscious state. How everything goes after this depends on your imagination.

With the power outage constantly, I slowly continue on my phone. I hope it doesn't take the next few months. By the way. The villain is so disgusting and disturbing that I want to throw up every time I think about him. You'll want to strangle me.

And to be very frank, I wonder if I should tone down the grossness of it. Or go all out.

I was today years old when I learned that when you type “otp: true” in AO3 search results it filters out fics with additional ships, leaving only the fics where your otp is the main ship

[downtroddendeity]

Here’s a cheatsheet of all the available hidden search functions. “-creators:[whatever]” is another exclusion that can be particularly useful.

Holy shit. Rt to save time

[leventart-den]

I never thought I'd end up on the end of being a fanfic author who hasn't posted a new chapter for months, but here I am. I'm really very embarrassed.

[leventart-den]

Guys, forgive me for disappearing again and it seems that for now I don’t know when I will have time to write the third chapter -.- Due to general problems in the world and holidays, I don’t have enough commission orders and therefore I’m looking for and trying other ways to make money with art (unfortunately I can’t make money in other ways), so I don’t have time for anything else yet - .- I will return to you and fandom creativity when I can)) I wish you happy holidays!🍀✨
