Summary
Words that carry Calaba's voice, strict and pragmatic in the way she had to be, remind Irida that this has always been inevitable: "We will do what we can for him, but you must not forget that we are made for this space the Almighty Sinnoh has granted us, and he is not. There will come a day, perhaps very soon, where his body must choose whether he will survive here."
--
A Twin Dragons AU perspective set in version of the story where Ingo stays in Hisui long enough for the cold to take its toll. Simultaneously, an exploration of grief through Irida's perspective, as she watches the man she chose to save succumb still too soon.
Planned as part of a two-piece series, the second of which will be Emmet's side of the story.

Summary
Plucking people from their time is not without consequences, and the easy solution was to alleviate the hurt by alleviating those left behind of their memories of the person lost.
---
Emmet and the world forget Ingo after he disappears, and some years later Sinnoh forgets Dawn. Nonetheless, they return, their own memories worse for wear. The Nimbasa Crew and Sinnoh Trainers combine forces, try to make sense of their lost memories and regain what's lost, and create a found family in the process.

Summary
“This is where you belong,” she said behind him, in a voice so quiet he might have missed it had he not been so nervously attuned to her presence in the room. He froze, and had to swallow thickly before he could answer her in a voice that was choked nonetheless. “I know, Nami-san.”
“If you know,” she continued in that same low voice, “then why did you leave in the first place?” Sanji dropped his gaze, and made to turn back to his cooking, but she grabbed his arm and held him in place. Reluctantly, he raised his eyes back to hers. “Why did you leave us?”

A closer look at the immediate aftermath of Whole Cake Island, because Sanji went through some shit and it was not nearly addressed enough.Series

Summary
Ace comes down upon Akainu like a Sea King, a gaping maw of fire and teeth, melting absolutely everything he touches. Akainu’s magma isn’t hot enough to save him. He dies, presumably screaming. It’s impossible to hear anything over Ace’s howling.
It’s not a human sound. It’s raw and animal.
And it doesn’t stop. Marco is standing nearly at the edge of the wharf, his ankles inches away from the drop into the sea, when he realizes Ace isn’t going to stop.

Summary
“I don’t buy it,” Pete retorts. “Someone like you? Some cook from East Blue? You’re probably worth a couple hundred thousand bellies at best, maybe a million, if your captain’s somebody.”
Sanji tilts his head back so that it rests against the dirty wall behind him. He’s still upright, somehow, through sheer stubbornness or spite. He doesn’t look like someone who only has tonight left to live.
In fact, he looks sharp. There’s no better word for it. His expression is still as peaceable as it has been since he arrived, but watching him is like watching a knife slide out of its sheath. He is, abruptly, dangerous. A tool made for cutting.
“If you knew where I’ve been, you would be terrified of me,” he says.

where nothing hurts and nothing breaks by taizi for impossi_bull

Summary
Sanji tries to imagine Yonji carrying anything for him at all just to be nice. The daydream falls apart instantly, because Yonji only ever took things from Sanji to break them.
“Do you promise you’ll give it back?” he musters the courage to ask, clinging to the cookbook a kind old woman just sold him, unwilling to let it go without making sure. She had smiled and said she was certain her family’s recipes would be in good hands with him and Sanji doesn’t want to prove her wrong before he gets a chance to even try. “You have to promise.”
Zoro gazes down at him with that inscrutable look on his face he’s worn all day. He could probably take the book from Sanji pretty easily but he doesn’t yank it away or twist his wrist until he lets go. They just stand there, sizing each other up. Sanji’s nerves mount with every second but he doesn’t back down.
Yonji would have hurt him already and laughed about it. The first mate of the Strawhat crew simply says, after enough time that Sanji knows he’s taken it seriously, “Promise.”
