    Summary

    They were going to lose. He could feel it- as sure as his heartbeat, as sure as Penguin's smile when the overcast hit. As sure as Shachi sang to himself in the shower, all manner of little honesties and intentions that outlined the world in silver.

    They were going to lose- but they didn't have to lose everything.

    Summary

    He’s a little thing, maybe four or five years old if she had to guess, and that would be concerning enough considering he’s alone in the woods, a quarter of the way up a mountain and at least a mile away from civilization all by his lonesome. But Nami’s always been the observant type of person; had to be, to get by for most of her life, and to be a good navigator, and this kid? This kid is setting off all the warning bells in her mind. Not the kid himself, mind you; but at all the little details that are telling her that he really should not be here.

    When Law goes missing during a stop on a quiet, out-of-the-way island, the Hearts and the visiting Straw Hats immediately drop everything to find him. But instead of the captain, they find a small boy with a familiar face who just wants to go home.

    As investigations into the strange nature of the island and what has happened bear fruit, both crews are left with the uncomfortable realization that they don't know how to predict how or if Law will be able to return.

    Or worse: if he'll even want to come back at all.

    Summary

    Right, Shachi thinks. Law and the concept of ‘change.’ Fuck.

    “No,” Law finally says, with the conviction of a man ready to fight god.

    Ah, hell. Here we go. “What do you mean, ‘no?’” Shachi groans back. “What more evidence do you need? It’s quite literally staring you in the face.”


    Shachi's captain was intelligent, clever, and good at reading between the lines. Most of the time.

    But damn, if he wasn't entirely oblivious to when a good thing was happening to him.

    Summary

    The light overhead isn't from Minion island's overcast sky but instead a steel plated ceiling shining down fluorescence, glass and plastic bottles rattling on shelves against the walls. Everywhere there's monitors and familiar machinery and the distinct tang of antiseptic, sharp beyond the memory sense of blood and snow. For half a second Law looks at it all very blankly and thinks, What The Hell. Is he dreaming. Is he hallucinating. Is he just plain dead. His sight-line completes the rotation of this impossibility to fall upon speckled jeans and a long sweeping coat. And the man standing in front of Law has the blankest expression Law's ever seen. And the man standing in front of Law has Law's father's face.

    Underneath Law's blood-slicked fingers, Cora-san's pulse shudders.

    (This is a story where the past and the present collide. Wherein thirteen year old Trafalgar Law and twenty-six year old Rocinante tumble sideways through time-space via the blue desperation of a newly eaten devil fruit, from Minion island to a future distant. Right, unwittingly, onto the submarine deck of a another Law shortly after Doflamingo’s fall.)
