    Summary

    My first memory was of heaviness, of tension crackling through the air. I saw the sky crack into pieces, spilling thunder that unfurled in splendid strands across the earth. I saw that searing fire burn through the world while god-men laughed, intoxicated by the struggle, emboldened by the power the possess. I saw false gods getting torn from their high perches, joining the ground in a dripping crescendo. I heard screams tear through the air like a never ending symphony. I smelt the smoke of burning flesh, the crackling skin cooking in the heat, the repulsive musk of human waste in the ever raging wind. The incessant shouts and screams of a foregin tongue, which dispair rings true and undoubted. The clink of chains piercing through the chaos like birdsong, and a never ending rumble to the earth, as if the island was tearing apart at the seams, as if the world was about to break apart like an eggshell: the mother of all things beginning to resculpt the world from the bottom up.

    I was in the valley of gods; hell was empty, and all the devils were here.

    Summary

    The Red Haired pirates were merciless and feared all across the Grand Line. They would not be defeated by a too little snake with a too big stomach. Especially not after their captain made it his life goal to keep the animal as alive as it is possible on a pirate ship. With said animal being the incarnation of the chaos itself.

    One thing for sure, Benn Beckman was definitely not going to clean after it.

    Or: Benn ended up, in fact, cleaning after it.

    ((Or or: Baby Luffy causes chaos among Red Hair Pirates but make it dragons))

    Summary

    "-You think loving him is enough to hold him? You think you can keep him just because you feel something?"

    Ace’s throat bobbed as he swallowed. But he didn’t look away. He didn’t back down.

    "I don’t think it’ll be easy," Ace said, rough and sure. "I know it won’t."

    Shanks’ eyes narrowed slightly, considering him.

    "Then answer me this," he said, voice dropping low, dangerous, "how the hell am I supposed to trust my songbird’s body —his heart —to a brat who doesn’t even know how to fuck a woman, let alone a man? "

    Ace’s entire body went rigid.

    He flushed deeper, the color high and angry in his face now, his fists clenching on his knees until his knuckles went white.

    "I—!" he sputtered, completely undone for the first time tonight. "I—I’m not some idiot! Just because—just because I haven’t— that doesn’t mean I—!"

    Shanks laughed again, throwing his head back slightly, the sound rich with genuine amusement.

    "God," he said between chuckles, "you’re easy to rile up."

    Or:

    A dead man from Earth wakes up in One Piece, sets out to be the world's greatest performer, and accidentally captures two hearts along the way.

    Summary

    Noctis Lucis Caelum was innocent.

    Eos finally believed him, but after ten long years of being falsely imprisoned, can he ever recover?

     

    (I recommend reading the first part of this series, 'Lost Innocence', because it is the foundation for this part of the story.)

    Summary

    After defeating Xemnas and finding Riku, Sora thought they'd go home. The worlds were safe and everything should be okay!

    Except... he didn't go home.

    And this new world had strange Heartless.

    That's okay, though! He was great at defeating them! He just needed to convince this world's guards of that.
