What makes someone a good leader? Is it caring about the people they're in charge of? Or is it more making sure they can all get out of an impossible situation alive? During those times do numbers count, or is any single loss an unacceptable failure?

And when it comes down to it, how do you know if you're a good leader until something directly happens?

I've always considered my Pops the best leader there ever was, but he was the strongest man in the world on top of caring about all of us. So I guess he had both qualifications covered.

Just curious as to thoughts on it, if you will.

Ah, but of course.

More of the loner type kitten?

You know I'm not.

All the red tape and the loops one must go through, and all that useless banter. Who needs it! I say, if the person has the experience, proper responsibility, and isn't a complete nut job (but the best of leaders are, alas), then give them the title and respect they deserve.

Of course, the latter part is optional and depends on the person. Each definition of respect differs.

I'm beginning to think every great captain on the Grand Line is a complete nut job. [Marco included oh god.] Maybe good leaders all just snap under pressure unless they're already off the deep end.

Of course.
