    Summary

    Rocinante had rehearsed what he would say to Law, when they finally caught up with his new crew. He’d gone through scenario after scenario, an old habit borne of Sengoku’s coaching to first combat his paralyzing childhood anxiety and later to survive among his brother’s crew.

    None of the scenarios he’d prepared for had involved a lanky youth in a hat taking one look at him and going white. “Shit!” he blurted, scrambling to his feet.

    They had also never involved his redheaded companion throwing the wrench in his hand directly at Rocinante’s head. “Take that, you feathered FUCK!”

    Summary

    Normally on nights like these, Nojiko would hang out the red blanket on the branches to dry. It was her sign to Genzo that Nami was home, so he wouldn’t come and check up on her like he was in the habit of doing in the evenings.

    Nojiko should put it up now; but she hesitated. Yes, Nami was home, but this wasn’t her sneaking in in the dead of night. Everyone knew about it. And Nojiko had seen the look on Genzo’s face when Nami had arrived at the docks, accompanied by an unfamiliar Fish-Man instead of her usual escort. She wasn’t sure if even his determination to get Nami to abandon her mission would keep him away right now.

    Nojiko couldn’t blame him. Her heart had stopped too, when she’d seen Nami, pale with pain and cradled in the arms of the enormous Fish-Man who had walked into their town.

    Summary

    Atsushi has had many unfortunate things happen to him in his eighteen years of living. An accident with an ability user sending him to a place called Gotham, New Jersey, wouldn't have been too surprising— but he's been physically de-aged, which.. complicates things.

    Things get even more complicated when he's taken in by a man named Jason Todd, who Atsushi's fairly sure is in some sort of gang. Or possibly running one?

    Surrounded by Birds and Bats and farther away from home then he can truly comprehend, will Atsushi be able to survive the hellhole that is Gotham and its eccentric night-time residents?

    Summary

    Zeff isn’t sure how he got the responsibility of a mute kid, but he still teaches him how to cook. Until one day, a brat with a straw hat destroys his floating restaurant, claims to be the next king of pirates, and tries to take his kid across the world with him.

    Quite an unusual way to start the day.

    . . .

    Being mute means it’s easy to hide secrets, and his past has left more scars than his crewmates will ever know. Sanji isn’t planning on telling anyone. It’s in the past, after all. It’s not like it’s going to come back to haunt him. Right?

    . . .

    Or, Sanji is mute because of his shitty biological father, but still joins the Straw Hats.

    Or, alternatively, the mute!sanji plot bunny that somehow turned into a retelling of One Piece.

    [very slow updates, not abandoned]

    Summary

    Behind Usopp was the face of the devil. Metal, artificial and stilting, two lights glowing brighter than the sun he had been taken from, twiching with crosshairs akin to eyes. It had no mouth, but sharp edges of gears and machinery, winding and pulling on the artificial shell laid atop- perched on its head was a horn painted, inexplicably, a bright cyan blue. The creature took up the whole space of the vent, easily two or three times larger than him, and contorting itself in ways no organic thing could in order to rush closer. Usopp had half the mind to think, perhaps the horn is to attract a mate, before it was reaching towards him, inches away from his soft flesh, and he shot back into his body to scream and scramble anew. 

    Or: Usopp is human, and trapped among the alien strawhat crew. He acts, as most humans would, with an unwarranted amount of dramatics, screaming, and violence. The language barrier is certainly not helping any parties in this situation!
