Summary
Bruce wakes up in a Gotham that isn’t his own—younger, unscarred, in a world where Batman never existed. He is surrounded by children who still found their way into vigilantism without his intervention, who look at him with affection and wariness in equal measure.
They believe he’s their Bruce, recovering from a brutal attack, but he knows he isn’t.But as he plays along, trying to piece together the secrets of this world and the reason for his presence here, staying silent may prove just as dangerous—because whoever wanted this world’s Bruce Wayne dead isn’t finished yet.

Summary
While investigating the rebel army in Alabasta, Sabo ends up in a dangerous position with two strange pirates who think they know him. For lack of better options, he pretends he knows them too.
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Portgas then cocked his head not unlike a puppy and proceeded to ask the most terrifying question you could ask an undercover agent; “Do I know you? You look really familiar.”
Sabo tried to summon back the blood he could feel draining from his face, already shaking his head. There was literally no reason for Portgas D. Ace to have ever laid eyes on Lastname-blank Middlename-blank Sabo. He didn’t have any sort of wanted poster with his likeness on it yet— if he did, he was sure Koala would have gotten ahold of him somehow to let him know, even if Sabo mostly ignored her calls if he didn’t suspect they might have booty in them. “No, I don’t think so. Probably just one of those top-hats.”

Summary
“Careful, Spy-san. Aren’t you getting too comfortable around a big, bad, terrible pirate?” Ace shoots back, as he watches the relaxed lines of the spy’s shoulders. The blond easily falls into step with Ace following him inside the ship to raid the galley, his weapon resting harmlessly on his back.
“We are both stuck on this ship until we make it to land,” Sabo points out. “Besides, I already told you. I could take you on with my pink finger.”
Ace sticks his tongue out. “I bet even Luffy could take you on, and he is a weak crybaby.”
That elicits a laugh from not-Sabo, and it has Ace reeling with delight. And oh, he is a little fucked, isn’t he? Even if this stranger is not Sabo, even if it is just his face and his actions and his stupid propensity to get under Ace’s skin, Ace could never raise a weapon against him and actually intend to kill.
It’s not Spy-san, but rather he who has gotten too comfortable.
...
Ace and Sabo meet before Marineford. It doesn’t change much.

Summary
Oxford Languages defines briar as “any of a number of prickly scrambling shrubs, especially the sweetbrier and other wild roses.”
***
Briar Theodore Evans was born the 30th of January, 1960 at 8:32 pm. A whole 6 minutes before Lily Jane Evans, who followed at precisely 8:38 pm. This wasn’t how it was supposed to happen. At least, it’s not how Briar remembered it happening when he read the books. Not that there was much he could remember about Harry Potter’s parents anymore. It had been years and they were such a small part. . .
Or
Briar may’ve come preloaded with the memories of a 23 year old—who once held a close to encyclopedic knowledge of the Harry Potter Series—but that does little to actually help him become powerful enough to fight Voldemort. He’s only capable of so much while stuck with a child’s brain and forced to grow up in 1960s & 70s Cokeworth England. Not to mention his less than ideal socio-political positions in, not just one, but two new worlds.
Struggling to gain enough power and knowledge to save Lily, Briar fights to reach his only life goal.
If only other people would stop distracting him. . .
