Summary
Canon-Compliant Ace-Lives AU:
One was smoke. The other was fire. Their logias were compatible – but soon enough, Smoker and Ace would find themselves in a hushed affair that would lead them both to heartbreak and death. And maybe if they’re lucky, something will come out of the wreckage after they crash and burn.
This is how they fell in love before their domestic tales began. (AKA the other fics in the series is their domestic bliss. This is how they get there)

Summary
It's Smoker's birthday and he's in a bar with Hina, drunk as fuck. Suddenly he spots someone who could be a dead-ringer for Portgas D. Ace. But that couldn't actually be him, could it? Smoker's birthday couldn't be that good - could it?
No way the pirate that he's having an affair with would also be drunk at the same bar as he was - would he?Smoker is drunk so stops holding back and fucks Ace behind a bar - Happy birthday, Smoker!

You Make Me Feel Good (J'y ai pensé mille fois, If You Want Me, dis-le moi) by madansemacabre

Summary
After the events of the Summit War, Smoker realizes that it’s the first Valentine’s Day since he and Ace got together. He decides to take Ace, who survived and has been hidden away on Sphinx, out on a date for the evening and get back to him for the butter incident.
(This fits nicely after Chapter 15 of Rise from the Ashes but can technically be read alone. The Butter Incident is from Turning Ordinary Meals into Extraordinary Feasts. It's just really self-indulgent and I wanted them to go on a proper date and then improper afterwards!)
