    Summary

    “I’m not a prostitute,” The man sitting in the small plastic chair opposite Junho’s work desk repeated.

    Junho glanced up from the arrest form he was filling out on his computer and studied him. Seong Gihun, age forty-three, resident of Ssangmun-dong. The system showed his only living relative to be his elderly mother. There were numerous citations on file for money issues mostly, but no prostitution. Oh, and today was his birthday.

    “Officer,” the man said, wringing his hands like an old woman and rocking in his seat, “I swear.”

    Junho took his fingers off the keyboard and crossed them over his desk. “Ajusshi, I have you on video without your pants in a popular love hotel.”

    Alternative Universe where no one gets hurt.

    Summary

    “Isn’t this what you wanted?” Gi-hun stammered, his voice trembling, eyes wide with a mix of disbelief and desperation. “You won. You broke me.”

    The Front Man’s gaze softened for a fleeting moment, his voice unexpectedly gentle. He barely stopped himself from reaching out to Gi-hun, as if to reassure him.
    “But I don’t want you broken, Gi-hun.” The words seemed to surprise even him, and he quickly masked the softness with his usual cold composure, silently thanking the stoic black mask he wore to conceal any trace of vulnerability.

    A brief silence stretched between them, the air thick with unspoken words. Both men stood still, eyes locked, each one waiting for the other to make the next move.
    Gi-hun’s chest tightened, a surge of anger rising in him as he spat,
    “What do you want, then?”

    Summary

    “What are you smiling about?” Nami asked, eyes narrowing.

    “You will lend me money,” Zoro laughed, “And you'll help me pick out a nice tie for curly too.”

    “Are you insane?  Why would I do that?” she hissed.

    “Because we’re friends,” he said, practically giggling, “And you’re rooting for me.”

    Summary

    Two years was a lot of time.
    24 months, 104 weeks, 730 days, thousands of hours and endless heartbeats of time. Everything has to move forward, people grow and they change, time slides onward.

    At 19, Zoro knew he was in love with Luffy. At Sabaody he thought maybe Luffy felt something too.
    At 21, Zoro knows he still is in Love with Luffy. At Sabaody again, two years of footsteps stretch between them, 104 weeks worth of stories, thousands of unshared struggles and millions of moments a heart could have changed. That brief moment of ‘maybe’ feels like a very long time ago, now.
