Summary
The crew probably doesn’t expect him to do well in this game, whatever it's going to be. They are, each of them, eyeing the sword in his hand as if they expect it to burn him.
Sanji knows he will do better than they expect. He’ll be able to hold his own, at least for long enough that Nami is able to get them out of this. Play the game and sword fight for a bit, then escape. It’ll be easy.
He takes a shaky breath.
Easy.
Sanji needs to play a little game to guarantee the crew's survival.

Summary
Marcus is too noble for his own good, Esca is too stubborn and they both are completely oblivious.
Disclaimer: Obviously I own none of this, I just play around.

Summary
The merchant, Gnaeus, who had sold Marcus this property, had spoken of a solid main building, of well-kept pens and fertile soil, all newly abandoned by deceitful tenants and only cheap because he was tired of the whole business and wanted the land off his hands for good. He had talked of neighbours and a village nearby with opportunities of trade, but he had entirely failed to mention that the house lay deep in tribal country.

Summary
”It is in my mind to go alone.”
”No, you–” Marcus says, cutting himself off when he hears the command in his argument even before speaking it out loud.
”I will leave in the morning,” Esca says. He is crouched in front of Marcus, hands idly pulling at the unkept weeds at his feet. Marcus wants to slip off the bench and lower himself to his knees, touch Esca’s cheek the way Esca had touched his on the bank of the river where he thought he would die. Tell him what Esca had told him then. Not a command, but an unshakeable truth.
”I would come with you,” he says instead, knowing that Esca’s mind will not be changed.
Esca leaves in search of his family with a promise to return. He doesn’t. Another post-movie fic.
Research paper in the top note.
