    Summary

    He expected to spend more time shivering than sleeping; except, somehow, between one breath and the next, a warmth seemed to spread over him, pressing in with a gentle weight entirely unlike anything he’d ever experienced. Comforted in spite of himself, the boy rolled over to better snuggle down into the warm softness, and fell instantly asleep.

    Or: being the Pirate King’s son means a lot of people unknowingly tell Ace he never should have been born. It also means several items formerly belonging to Gold Roger make their way into his possession, whether he wants them to or not.

    For instance, a coat. A sword. A rather opinionated ship.

    (The Hat considers it. The Hat decides to stay with someone else, instead, but that’s alright, considering the someone else is still family.)

    Summary

    “What the fuck did I just fix?” Ikkaku breathes out. She’s keeping one hand firmly on Law’s shoulder, out of sheer instinct, but the other is creeping towards her boilersuit’s hidden pocket and the knife tucked inside.

    “As I said, my voicebox! Oh, it’s going to be so delightful to hold a proper conversation again, and- AHA! SHACHI!” Somewhere else in the ship, echoing down the metal corridors, they hear the young man’s startled shriek, presumably as the- Tang? Ghost of the Tang? Talks directly to him. “Yes you, stop screaming, it’s only me- stop leaving your dirty clothes lying about! Don’t you know how much bacteria can generate from just a single smelly sock? Captain is quite particular about such things, as you good and well know-!”

    “...Ikkaku,” Law mutters, while the voice abruptly drops in volume a second time - they can still hear the echo of it, elsewhere, presumably continuing to fuss at Shachi, but it’s no longer talking in two places at once. “Our ship talks.”

    Summary

    Sanji couldn't stop thinking about the melancholy look on Nami's face when she'd mentioned her home. For him, the smell of home was the sea: salt spray in the air, the wind's promise of the next island, fish and seaweed and wood underfoot. And it was his kitchen, the spices, the meat, the vegetables, baking bread and simmering stews. He had carried his home with him, even if the people were far away.

    Nami didn't have that. She'd grown up on an island. When she had travelled, it had been under the orders of the pirate she'd hated, in a desperate quest to steal enough money to save her home, her people. The sea, Sanji suspected, was not as kind to Nami as it had been to him.

    Summary

    Law and Rocinante are rescued from Minion Island by Tsuru and her Marines but a new problem immediately arises. If he wants to keep them out of danger, Law has to conceal both his Amber Lead poisoning and his Devil Fruit-- and figure out a really good excuse for why Rocinante abandoned his mission. Which would all be a lot easier if Rocinante would just wake up...
