Summary
“Do you have bartending experience?” asks Olu, same as he’s asked all the others.
“Sure,” says the stranger.
“Got any references we could call?”
“Nope,” they say. They pop the p and it sounds like a challenge. Their voice is clear and light and somehow, at the same time, as hard as their eyes.
“Right then,” he says. “How would you handle it if, hypothetically, your place of work got a little bit…violent, from time to time?”
They smile like a fucking shark. They have a switchblade in hand—where did they get a switchblade?—and they’re flipping it smooth and easy around their palm.
“I’m good with violence,” they say.

Nanako bares her teeth. “If you’re gonna kill us then do it, but I’m not just gonna stand here.”

He gets his hand on the doorknob before All Might speaks again, low and hoarse.
“You saved their lives.”

Summary
“I mean, this whole, this whole thing, it’s kind of a shitshow,” says Merle. He sweeps his arm out to include the dining room, the ship, the marshy world they’d landed on that morning, and, well. Everything. This whole half-century, probably. Lucretia’s nightmares, maybe, though no, he doesn’t know about those and he doesn’t need to.
“In all of this,” he says, “what have ya got? Just life, just joy, just, y’know, the little moments. Gardening and shit. Booze.”

Summary
“It isn’t static,” Magnus says, because it isn’t, shit, it doesn’t feel like the voidfish at all. There’s just something there, a name, a deep scorched hole in his gut like someone’s been burned out. “Taako. Taako, why can’t I remember.”
Taako’s eyes are very wide, and he’s shaking his head. His left cheek dips in like he’s biting it, thinking. Then he puts his hands, slowly, tentatively, over Magnus’, and says, “you gave it up, Maggie. In Wonderland.”

Taako though. Well.
