Summary
It was easy to forget, sometimes, that everyone in the New World was there for a reason. With how strong the Strawhats had gotten, with how strong he had gotten, the thought that they could ever be hurt, let alone defeated, crossed Zoro’s mind less and less. It was at times like these, however, when he remembered. When he couldn’t afford to forget.
Everyone in the New World was there for a reason. Everyone in the New World was there because they were powerful – powerful enough to survive the absolute insanity that came with the Grand Line. And sometimes – just sometimes – even the Strawhats were faced with a dilemma like this.
Zoro looked at his nakama, fallen apart, and wanted his captain.
---
The Strawhats underestimate a group of marines, and face the consequences.

Summary
“Robin-chan!” He shouted, his voice strained but carrying across the empty street to the receding tram nonetheless. Robin had been struggling to her feet, pushing off the hands of the people helping her up, looking for a way to get back to him, crossing her arms in front of her in vain, desperately trying to find a way to get him back – but she paused at his call, and he saw her look back at him. He kept smiling. “Go get Luffy – I’ll be waiting!”
The tram turned a corner and was gone, taking Robin safely with it. He kept watching the empty street, finally letting his smile drop as heavy footsteps approached. Gleaming black shoes filled his vision, and Sanji stared resolutely ahead as the man from before crouched by his side.
“Sacrificing yourself, eh? How noble.” Sanji snorted, curling his lip.
“Hardly,” he said, placing all of his conviction into his words. “Robin-chan will be back for me, and she’ll bring far more than you and your shitty henchmen can handle.”

Summary
It had been one name, shouted in the heat of battle, that had stuck in Nami’s head. Yonji. She had turned at the sound of it, confused. Wondering if she’d misheard through the protective earplugs. Wondering how these people could have gone through so much trouble to steal her friend just to end up getting his name wrong – but then Sanji’s brother, the green-haired one, he’d turned too. And Nami had realised there had been no mistake – that was his name. Yonji.
Sanji.
Sanji and Yonji.

Summary
It had occurred to him at some point after they had left Wano Kuni that the Vinsmokes must have passed through nearby waters, since Whole Cake Island had been so close.
Which was why, when the Strawhats docked at the first island they spotted after leaving Wano, Sanji was so nervous he almost considered staying on the ship while the rest of the crew explored the town.
—
The Strawhats make their first stop after Wano, and begin to understand that the Vinsmoke name isn’t so easily left behind.

Summary
He'd been walking towards the door. He'd wanted to leave, had been desperate to leave. The explosion had come from in front of him; he remembered being thrown backwards by the force of it. But then - he also remembered the same feeling from behind him just a few seconds later, and then the sound of a third explosion from the side -
We were bombed, he realised, and almost laughed.
Of course. Of course, during the one and only solo diplomatic mission that Keith had ever been sent on, something like this would happen. Of course.
--
Keith is sent to negotiate a peace treaty with an alien community, but things go very, very wrong.

Summary
“Who the fuck are you?”
The door to the alley had barely closed behind Sydney when the voice snapped at her.
Sydney turned towards the sound, sure she had misheard, “Sorry?”
“I said ‘Who the fuck are you?’ Where’s Carmen?” The woman advanced towards Sydney and stopped so close that she could smell wine on her breath.

Summary
“So…” he began again, “Fuck buddies, right?”
Carmy quickly negated this assumption as well. “He wasn’t a buddy. He was my boss.”
Richie nodded again before frowning. “Aren’t there rules against that shit?”
“You were just talking about Sydney and I-”
Richie waved off that statement, “This is barely a legit workplace and you’re barely a boss. I just thought you worked somewhere uppity in New York.”
“I did.”
“And you fucked the boss?”
“Well, he fucked me.”
“No shit!” Richie let out a surprised laughed. “But then, you are gay.”
Carmy, once again, quite inexplicable shook his head in negation. “I’m not.”
OR,
Richie decides to join in with everyone else to tease Carmy regarding his apparent chemistry with Sydney and he ends up in a rabbit-hole of discussion regarding Carmen's rather complicated sexual history.

Summary
Zoro’s used to being the one people rely on in a fight. A tool. A shield. A sword (or three). No one’s ever accused him of being intelligent—or even having common sense. Then he met Luffy—and the rest of them—and somehow, he thought he’d found something different. People who saw him as something other than an idiot. Something other than a weapon.
But between getting lost, missing things everyone else seems to just get, and saying the wrong thing at exactly the wrong time, it’s not hard to start hearing the same old story again—from the very people he opened himself up to: he’s stupid, and he’s only good with a sword.
And if that’s how the Straw Hats see him… then maybe that’s all he is.
The problem is, the Straw Hats don’t realize what they’re reinforcing.
And by the time they do, Zoro’s already running himself into the ground trying to be useful enough to keep.
Now they just have to figure out how to fix something they didn’t even know they broke—before he breaks himself for good.

Summary
But maybe Sanji was imagining things. The East Blue was an enormous place.
He grit his teeth and rubbed his eyes. When he opened them, the silhouette was crisp.
The Rock.
The East Blue was a very small place.
On the way to the Grand Line, Sanji stumbles upon a place he never thought he'd see again. It brings back memories.
