Teru Teru no Mi

---

English Name: Shine Shine fruit

Classification: Paramecia

Owned By: Seth Rivers

Appearance

---

The Teru teru no Mi is a long, thin, and waxy fruit. It is bright yellow in color with a short stalk at the top with a singular long leaf wrapped around the end, almost like a lid.

---

Ability

---

• The Teru Teru no mi turns its user into a Glowstick person.
• With newfound resistance to getting hurt, the user has the ability to bend limbs back into place in an instance where they would normally be broken. Additionally, this comes with the ability to bend himself and different parts of his body in ways that a normal person couldn't.
• The Teru Teru no mi effectively turns all liquids inside the user's body to glow with an intensity that can be changed by the user. There is no specific color associated, and the user can change it at will.
• The fruit turns the user's bodily fluids into a viscous, mild skin irritant that does not affect the user.
• Bodily fluids produced by the user now stain the surfaces it touches, and the light is persistent. The user can also infinitely produce this liquid from his body, with the understanding that it begins to shine the second it is created.

Weaknesses:

• Kairoseki

[/i]

[li]Submersion in water[/li]
Renders the Devil Fruit user immobile and causes them to sink.


[li]Cold Temperatures / Ice[/li]
Any cold temperature makes the users glow "liquid" harder to use outside of the body, and makes it harder to achieve brighter lights. The colder it gets, the thicker and more viscous the liquid is, making it much harder to manipulate and spread over large distances.


[li]Fire[/li]
Direct flame applied to the users liquid ignites the fluid and essentially uses up its 'shelf life' in an instant. What is left behind is a thin, muted liquid unable to be lit up again.

<sup>Hey, nemo!

So, uh, I’ll be rather honest here. This entire concept is probably fine if I think you’re doing what I think it is. However, the entire description of the ability is very barebones and definitely needs a lot more in regards fleshing it out. It’s also probably a little too ‘visceral’ in its application when you can get away with much more supernatural fun. It also needs an additional weakness outside of the Devil Fruit regulars, so I’d suggest brainstorming the idea in depth.

As is, it’s simplicity is (ironically) the thing that’s holding it back. If you’d like, mark it up as WIP again while you figure it out.</sup>

<sup>Okay! Back and ready for review! Well, let’s start on something I feel is more important, and the one thing that is really being a struggle for this fruit — the concept. With some discussion, we’ve come to the conclusion that the user’s bodily fluids being luminous is perhaps a little too visceral in the concept, and really it seems to have the issue of being too awkward in its concept? Really, the liquid in a glow stick isn’t meant to come out, so you’re kind of pushing the boundaries.

However! I managed to come up with an alternative concept that fits the theme and makes it a bit more of a party. So there’s a phenomenon whose name eludes me, but it’s to do with ambient light and actual light sources. I thought, why not take this literally? Perhaps, as the user’s body glows more intensely, they cause their surroundings to darken: Glow sticks at a rave? Not only do we think this is a neat alternative to an otherwise strange, stretch of a concept, but I feel it offers you potential both now and later as your character develops!</sup>
