Summary
When Nagi first got the call from Reo, her mind jumped to the worst possible conclusions—that Reo may have been deeply injured, or that someone had attacked her, or perhaps she had fought with her husband again.
The entire ride, her mind kept providing her with pictures of Reo being hurt, injured and in pain.
Opening the door of the penthouse she had expected the worst, she was ready for the worst.
Never in her life she would’ve expected the scenery in front of her. Even now, standing amidst all this chaos, Nagi still can’t believe it’s real, she could convince herself that it’s the work of her imagination, that she had finally gone mad and started hallucinating, but no—as much as she’d like it to not be real, the smell of blood, the corpse laying on the ground of a man she once hated with all her might—one she had wished death upon, are undeniably real.
In which; Reo makes a mess, and Nagi is left to patch all the broken pieces back together.

Summary
Somehow, despite living on this earth for seventeen years, Nagi had been blissfully unaware about soulmates and the significance they had on people's life. Unfortunately, one careless remark send him down a rabbit hole of friendships, an obnoxious soulmark, regrets and a relationship he somehow had to men, while slowly becoming more and aware that he couldn't live life with Reo. All the while Reo does not want to talk.
Set during the section and third selection (but before the big game), featuring a lovely supporting cast consisting of: a pining Isagi who is a well-meaning wingman, Bachira who accidentally became a damsel in distress, Baro who can't handle stupidity, Chigiri who is the better (but harsher) wingman and Reo who is basically the last person who sees Nagi's soulmark.

Summary
Nagi doesn’t think of himself as a jealous person. He doesn’t get angry and a lot of the time it takes too much effort to care that much, but he feels like he’s made it very clear that he and Reo are partners so he’d really appreciate it if everyone could stop acting like Reo is single.
Alternatively:
It takes Nagi way longer than it should to realize that Reo doesn’t know they’re dating.

Summary
The first time Zoro dies, he stands right back up, picks his heart up from where it was thrown on the ground, and pushes it back into the hole in his chest.
Dying is not an option for Zoro. He has to see his captain crowned King of the Pirates, after all.
Or: the straw-hats have mastered stubbornness to an art, and not even Death will stand in their way to the one piece.

Summary
Roger didn't mean to propose. Even if he'd thought about it, wanted it, he didn't think he should. So when he accidentally does anyway and Rayleigh storms off in a huff, well. It's not really the reaction he was expecting; now he's got to figure out what happened and try to salvage the situation.
(ie. Roger proposes not knowing it's April Fools. It goes about as well as you'd expected.)
