Summary
The sounds of battle blur into silence. The edges of the world grow thin, transparent. A gray sheen slides over everything, the air rippling, like he’s seeing it through a curtain. Or a dream.
He blinks, and the world slams sideways.
In front of him—
Luffy.
Smiling.
Alive.
OR
The events of Marineford happen a little differently. Ace never gets the chance to die for Luffy—because Luffy dies first. Now, Ace is the one left behind, stuck in a loop he doesn't understand. But with each new loop, Ace begins to see just how much his brother is willing to risk for him, and how far he'll go to save him in return.

Summary
I’m safe. I know this. As foreign as it feels to give myself credit, I know I helped save Erid, and that every sentient being on the planet knows it too.
And yet, something small and primitive in me can’t fight the brief flash of fear that zips through me when Adrian skids to a halt before me and I am forced to look up at them.
For a moment, they just stand there. I am reminded of the first time I saw Rocky, atavistic horror battling with fascination, coming together in a trembling awe. I feel no different looking at Adrian than I felt looking at Adrian, a vast expanse of green before me, knowing I am the first human to ever witness it, finding beauty in it as much as knowing it could spell my doom under the right circumstances. The light of my dome shines down on them, casting a dozen towering shadows over me.
“Hi,” I manage, forcing myself to swallow through a dry throat. If this is who Rocky chose to spend his life with, they’re cool. They have to be.

Or: Rocky introduces the two people he loves most.

Summary
Afterwards Rocky reassured me that it is pretty common for pebbles to earn their first nicks and cracks at that age. Their outer shell isn’t fully developed yet and not quite as hard as that of an adult. He proudly showed me various indents and hairline fractures on his own body, telling me about how he got them in his youth during adventures with his friends or just messing around.
It’s a sign of growth, he told me. A sign of getting older and maturing.
Not a big deal. Happens all the time.
I believe him. Tori was in good spirits afterwards. Their crying was more because of the shock and the scare, not any actual pain. We finished the rest of the day without any further incidents and then I wished them all a happy holiday and returned to my home and got into bed.
Where I stayed for the next eighteen hours.
*************
There is an accident in the classroom. Everyone tells Grace that it's not a big deal.
But then why can't he stop thinking about it?Series
