    Summary

    “I just—” Joe settles into bed, curling into Nicky’s side like he does every night. “I just wish—”

    How? How can he say that he wishes it were as easy as a condom breaking, a mistake between two teenagers, or as easy as a husband impregnating his wife—something done four times with ease—and not sound like a cruel, jealous, petty man?

    “I wish I could give this to you,” Joe says finally, his voice soft.

    Joe and Nicky have been trying to adopt for nearly a decade without success. With the impending arrival of a new addition, Joe—hurt, frustrated, adrift—learns that love, hope, healing, family, doesn't always happen according to plan.

    Summary

    After a century, the immortals had to eventually move on from the loss of Nicoló to the sea. They went from four to two quickly, when Yusuf refused to leave his lost lover and did not forgive them for what he saw as their abandonment.

    When Nile meets Andy, Quynh, and Booker they seem to function as a family unit. The late addition of an angry, unpredictable Joe sort of fit in as the 'weird uncle'.

    Summary

    Zoro scoffs and moves his captain closer.

    “Go get your own.”

    Chopper gapes wordlessly. All the rest of Nami’s nakama have a similar expression on their faces, something between stupefied and offended—save Robin, who presses a secret smile behind her hand, and Jimbei, whose rumbling chuckle is just barely audible over the sound of the sea.

    Nami—who knows very well what Zoro looks like when he’s trying to get a rise out of someone, who knows very well that she has a claim on Luffy that only a handful of other people in the world share, one that can never be broken or stolen or changed—feels herself bristle, too.

    “HE IS OUR OWN!” the majority of one of the most infamous pirate crews in the New World shriek like schoolchildren.

    Summary

    He takes the urn from Luffy, smoothing his thumb over the plaque on the front.

    “I wish I met you sooner, kid,” Marco says. “You’re everything he always said you were.”

    “He loved you guys, too,” Luffy replies.
