  1. Summary

    a series for various works of mine that never made it to fruition. This is whatever was in my wip folder that I felt had enough actually there to want to share.
    All of the works within this series are what I'd call Terminally Incomplete.

    For the most part, I'm happy for y'all to take these ideas and run wild. If, for whatever reason, I don't want you to I'll say so on that specific story.
    But other than that run wild! Go free!
    Enjoy these bite sized bits and shiny little baubles of ideas and snippets!

    Summary

    The legends say: If you give your name to the Fae, you now belong to them.
    Outlook took a Fae child. There is no mistaking the eyes of the younger kid.
    'Uh? Who are you ?'

    In this land of Old and New, every action has consequences.
    'Now that we're brothers, I should introduce myself.'
    'Hello Ace, Luffy. My name is Sabo.'

    What makes a family? Is it your blood?
    It's in this cell that Outlook's child dies and Sabo is born. They'll never understand the wilderness underneath his skin.

    Your name? Your memories?
    Cleverly, the Commander hot on his trail leads him right into a dead-end.
    "Listen, I don't know what I did to offend you but we can talk!" Empty hands raised up, he tries to placate the guy. It seems to anger him further.
    "You don't know what you did?" A hand slams against the wall, freezing him in place.
    "Sabo."
    "How- how do you know my name?"

    Or is it the fact that no matter how far you lose yourself, they'll never let you go?
    "Hey Ace? I love you." He untangles before Ace tries to grab him. "Tell it to Luffy for me okay?"

    Summary

    Portgas roars wordlessly in frustration and grabs him by the collar of his jacket. “Stop running, Sabo!”

    He’s distantly aware that he stumbles at this, legs abruptly going numb and nearly sending him to the ground were it not for the grip Portgas has on him.

    Blue-

    Sabo-

    He can’t breathe. There’s a splitting pain in his head, but it’s overwhelmed by the warmth he feels behind his ribs, something slotting into place that he didn’t notice was loose until it wasn’t anymore.

    That’s his name. More than that, it’s his Name. His real one. The one absolutely no one should know, because how can he give it to anyone when even he doesn’t know it?

    Summary

    The one in which Whitebeard Pirates meet Ace's big brother, and it goes... not as expected. To be fair, though, very few things involving Luffy ever do.

    (Or, Role Reversal AU, where Luffy is the elder brother.)

    This is how I cope with them never reuniting in canon

    Summary

    “Well, that was certainly a way to find out,” the hologram man says. “But trust me, you’ll get through it.”

    “Who are you?” she whispers.

    "I'm here to guide you through your Awakening," he says. "You can call me your System-guide, if you want."

    Or, Bak Yerim has Awakened at last and she has a trusty virtual guide to help her through the process of figuring out how to be a hunter.
