    Summary

    Ace gives her a look like she’s given him the best thing to ever grace the sand, sea or sky, and she’d be lying if it wasn’t horribly endearing. Like some sort of incredibly combustible puppy. “You. You are my new favorite,” he says frankly, jabbing a finger in her direction and gesturing expansively with his mug of water. “I missed out on three years of stupid little brother antics and this is exactly the kind of story I want to hear, so I can lord it over him, as is my right.” He flops back against the railing, chuckling. “A fucking barrel,” he wheezes.


    If there was one thing Nami hadn't been expecting, it was that feared pirate Portgas D. Ace was just as much of a loveable dork as his little brother.

    Summary

    Missing Chris is less of an emotion these days and more of a physical entity. He’s sure everyone can see that he’s slowly hollowing himself out, that he can’t do much of anything else.

    But when Jee laughs at him trying to get his tongue to touch his nose, and Mara loops one of her arms through his to keep him from tossing the rest of his cup in the garbage, Eddie feels solid again.

    Maybe he likes yellow birthday cake ice cream after all.

     

    (or, gerrard messes with the team's schedules and eddie 'i just drove my son to flee the state' diaz is the only option to watch mara and jee-yun after school on tuesdays, which, shouldn't be a problem at all, right?)

    Summary

    eddie's not entirely sure he believes in getting help, at least not for himself. there's only so much healing to be had for a body torn apart by bullets, for a mind that's only half there, for a man who's been leaving pieces of himself behind all his life with nothing to take their place.

    except, as it turns out, falling apart happens in increments, and healing does, too: it happens when you gnaw a hole in your lip trying to keep quiet only to have the words escape; when you realize that the ghost you've been seeing out of the corner of your eye is yourself; when your best friend smiles, and you allow it to take your breath away.

    it happens through the smallest of things: bird feeders, and cacti, and pasta shapes.

    meanwhile, the world goes on.

    (or: the entity often affectionately referred to as the unrepression fic.)

    Summary

    Bones is basically Jim's automatic best friend right now anyway, and Joanna comes as a package deal.

    Plus, she's adorable. And she likes space. That means she's technically more friend-material than Bones is, and Bones laughs when Jim says as much.

    [Canon Divergence AU - McCoy takes Joanna to Starfleet. Enter: James T. Kirk].
