Summary
“I don’t possess the spirit of the Trailblaze,” Sunday would say. “This is an opportunity I am immensely grateful for, however brief, and one I promise not to take for granted.”
The echoes of the past are too loud to ignore. Seeking refuge on the Express, hurting and distrustful, eyes of red forever haunting his dreams-
Dan Heng remembers too much. It is all embedded in Permanence, the good and the bad, and while time erodes even the hardiest scales it does not soften Remembrance’s bite. He took a first step, too, all those months ago, a first unsteady step onto this train and amidst people he didn’t feel worthy of.

Summary
“How did you get here?!” Law couldn’t help but ask, staring at Roronoa in bewilderment. The man only had a dinghy, how in the fuck did he cross the Calm Belt-?
“A Sea King caught on my fishing line and dragged me for a while,” Roronoa shrugged, as if it happened to everyone. “Why? Is it out of the way again?”
“We’re in East Blue, Swordsman-ya.”
“Ah.”
Law pinched the bridge of his nose, trying to avoid the migraine he could feel gathering behind his eyes.
Honestly, he was starting to feel bad for Roronoa. And he was almost done with the hearts, and Saobody was on the way to Marineford, kinda-
“Do you need a lift to Sabaody?” It slipped out, the tone coming out more genuine than the dry exasperation he had been aiming for.
He regretted asking already, but it’s not like he could take it back now. And chances were that Roronoa would decline, anyways-
“Sure,” Roronoa shrugged. “Might as well.”
Goddamnit.
Or: Zoro and Law keep running into each other. Clearly, it's fate!

Summary
“I don't think it's a joke anymore," Penguin said that night in the crew bedroom, a propos nothing.
“Which of your bullshit pranks are you talking about now?" Law's tired voice piped up from behind the mountain of fur that was Bepo.
“That dad's our- I mean, that Cora-san's our dad.”
It started out as one, Penguin was pretty sure. When they first called him the crew's dad, it was a dig at Law's adamant denials of the man being his father.
But then they all started calling him that to the point where his bounty he got at a failed supply run had him put down as “Wanted: Dad" (a copy of which hung in at least three different rooms on the sub), and that prompted them to get him a “best dad" mug, and they had all that rules for keeping him safe written down-

Summary
“You have no idea who I am!” Ace yelled, shrugging the hand off roughly. It shouldn’t have worked, Roger was clearly just humouring him, but all that mattered was to have it off- “Neither of you knows me! You weren’t there!”
His parents’ faces grew blurry.
“You weren’t there,” he repeated, hanging his head low and wrapping his arms around himself in a pale imitation of his brother’s hugs. “You left me all alone.”
Maybe Luffy had a point, back when he told them loneliness was the worst kind of pain.
Rouge was the first one to move, bringing Ace back into her embrace.
“I’m sorry,” she whispered. “I’m so sorry, darling.”
He let himself be held, but didn’t dare relax. Surely that bastard would try to get in on the hug, surely he would interrupt, surely-
Roger was crying.
Or: On your 15th birthday, you are gifted a visit from your parents, as they were on their last birthday before death.
For most people, it's just a chance to remind themself of how adorable their children were, all those years ago. Maybe to meet again a spouse departed too early.
For Ace, it changes everything.

Summary
Ace lifted his gaze from his arms and immediately his eyes caught on the mirror in the corner. Sweeping across his collar was the definite and precise scrawl of his soulmate. His eyes kept tracing over the words again and again, just to verify that those really were his words.
