t4t crochawk is so special to me. I've yapped about it on twitter before but i gotta bring that energy here too fr. I think a big part of crochawk's appeal is in their sameness
They're both loners with trust issues and a grudge against the World Government/Marines. Both of them have lost ambitions in some way (Mihawk having fallen into a state of ennui because he's already climbed to the top and hasn't been challenged by anyone he deems a truly worthy opponent since Shanks lost his arm. Crocodile wanted to become Pirate King until his defeat by Whitebeard, and later on was defeated by Luffy and became so depressed he didn't even care to escape Impel Down when he was given the opportunity)
They're both incredibly petty too because Mihawk hunted down Don Krieg's entire fleet just cuz they probably woke him up from a nap. And Crocodile escaped Impel Down JUST so he could try to kill Whitebeard and cause trouble for the Marines. THESE MEN ARE FULL OF SPITE!!!!
They already have so much solidarity to the point where I literally like. Cannot even fathom them not being t4t LMAO their level of understanding is just SUCH a t4t dynamic to me.... Also
Crocodile said this and I took that to HEART
