Summary
“Captain- I- I don’t know, if I can do it all over again,” Shanks confessed, voice breaking.
“Of course you can, kid,” Roger said, an easy grin stretching across his face, his large hand clasping comfortingly on Shanks’ small shoulder. “And who said anything about ‘doing it all over again’? You didn’t spend your first life worrying about the ending did you?”
“Course not!” Shanks said, affronted.
“Then why would you this time? Don’t think of it as a do over, this is still your life Shanks! So keep living your life without regrets- and if you do have past regrets- Well,” Roger shrugged, throwing a wink at him before glancing at the waves with a conspiratorial smile. “Here’s your chance to fix them.”
Or Shanks travels back in time, from the end to the beginning and oh so many years in between.
Or the Shanks being BAMF as he saves the world time travel fic we all deserve.

Summary
King Uther has a problem. The boy he made Arthur’s manservant is far too good at getting into trouble. That isn’t the problem. The problem is he’s far too good at getting out of it too.

Summary
“Conqueror’s haki,” Shanks tried, “Is imposing your Will onto others. It’s forcing them to obey and submit. It’s attacking the mind directly.”
Yasopp looked down at Benn’s sleeping form in shock. “You think-?” he breathed, horrified.
“I’ve never,” Shanks stressed, pleaded, begged, “I’ve never knowingly gone inside Benn’s head before but Seas, Yasopp, he’s-” Shanks gently stroked Benn’s face, the older man leaning into his touch even dead asleep. “He’s so entwined with me. I don’t even know where to start repairing all the damage.”
Or
One’s freedom of choice has always been relative to the power one wields.
What is loyalty when your Captain’s very Will forces you to obey?

Summary
That’s it, that’s his quirk.
or
A story where Midoriya Izuku’s quirk is the power to look beyond the veil of reality and read the tags of his own story. . This causes some… problems?A/N: Dear readers, please note that tags will change and they are all spoilers, just like Izuku’s entire life. Take comfort in that this is a borderline crack fic with a sprinkle of angst and hurt/comfort because I literally cannot help myself. In the unlikely event that any triggers appear, they will be marked at the top of the relevant chapter.

Summary
Ok look. I just really wanted to write some Shanks angst.
Works in this series sometimes follow my general One Piece lore and head cannons but not always. They are also all unrelated because if they all happened in the same universe it would make the Red-Hair Pirates look very incompetent. Which they are not, I just love torturing Shanks. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Also, if you like this, check out my main One Piece AU Of Dawn and Dreams for more Shanks and One Piece goodness.
