Character Discussion Is Buggy in his Good or Bad timeline?

#5
...Actually, that raises a interesting question. If Buggy's in his "good" timeline, because everything kinda goes wrong for him in the right way. Would that mean his "bad" timeline, would be a world where everything went RIGHT for him, but in the wrong way?

Like, right now, Buggy is getting bullied and pushed around by Mihawk and Crocodile. He still hasn't found Captain John's treasure, he never got to see what was on Laugh Tale, and he's being hunted by the Marines. But, it's all probably leading to him becoming the King of the World, eventually. It'll probably all work out, even though he's miserable on the journey to getting there.

So, what would Buggy's "bad" timeline look like? Maybe he never got sick, got to see what was on Laugh Tale, joined Shanks' crew, found Captain John's treasure, got rich, and lived in the lap of luxury...until the world flooded and he dies in obscurity? Everything going right for him along the journey...but ending up in the wrong place at the wrong time when it matters most?

Huh, that's actually a interesting "what if" question.

Shanks is the captain, Buggy would have been one more in his crew over time, that would be the worst thing that could have happened to the clown...

If we look on the surface level – yes.

But is he truly happy deep down? I would say no for now. Was he content with his life all these years? His resentment towards Shanks and his poor self image (no person with a normal self image craves so much attention) are holding him back. But I feel like he's moving towards his true good timeline.
