    Summary

    Call it any number of things, fate, luck, sheer fucking coincidence, but he’s in the right place at the right time to catch someone hollering about Gold Roger’s son being put up for sale.

    Even if it’s all a pack of lies, no kid deserves the fate that’s coming from being a look-alike with Roger. Shanks finds his feet moving of their own accord, the whole world narrowing to just this thin, insipid man, beaming from ear to ear as he talks about an auction for a child.

    “What,” Shanks drawls in his best ‘Saint Fearsome Figarland’ voice, “Is this nonsense?”

    Summary

    "We're going to be alcoholics by the time we're thirty," Sokka sighed.

    "You think we'll live to be thirty?" Zuko asked, honestly thrilled. Sokka had pretty good instincts. Perhaps Zuko should reevaluate his long term goals. He could start by having long term goals.

    A more likely alternative was that Sokka was just a hopeless optimist. It just went to show, you never truly saw another man until you stood shoulder to shoulder against a fleet of war balloons intent on raining death upon the city you loved.

     

    Zuko was just a normal guy with normal interests. He liked theatre, burglary, crotchety ostrich horses, watching the Blind Bandit crush her opponents in a glorious display of skill and violence... just your standard banished prince things. It wasn't his fault he kept stumbling into rebellions and uncovering long-buried secrets. Fine, maybe freeing the prisoners was on him, but he was completely innocent of all other treason. Zuko was his father's loyal son. He'd never betray his nation.

     

    Or:
    Uncle Iroh took a more creative approach to fostering Zuko's appreciation of other cultures. Now it's everyone's Problem.

    Summary

    There's empty space, between Shamrock's death and Shamrock breaking the timeline.

    This is what lies in that space.

    One to watch the end, a girl who has lived past her time, and a slave with blood on her hands.

    Summary

    Sabo doesn't make it out of Lulusia.

    He wakes up alive on Dawn island ten years in the past, facing down an Ace and Luffy who don't know what to do with a Sabo a decade too old to be the one they lost.

    Still - they're brothers. Mismatched or not, that'll never change.
