Summary
“He made you for me? To be with me?”
“Yes,” says the Corinthian, and suddenly he’s right in front of her, clasping her hands between his, the vodka bottle excruciatingly cold compared to his warmth. “Exactly. Jo, you never have to be alone again. You never have to hurt a person, or have them leave you, or die. You never have to suffer again. You get to be loved every day for the rest of your life by someone who can’t get hurt, can’t die, and won’t hurt you. Isn’t that beautiful? Just love, forever.”
“And that’s what you want?”
The Corinthian smiles, with all three mouths. “Of course,” he says. “It’s what I was made for.”

“Now,” Bert claps his hands together. “It’s tradition that any newbies share their stories first. Stranger, you willing?”
The Corinthian affects surprise, his fingertips pressed questioningly against his chest. “Who, me? Well… I suppose I could talk a little.”
“Introduce yourself to the group,” Bert encourages. “Nobody bites, I promise.”
“What, not even a little?” says the Corinthian.

Summary
Max is sobbing, one hand in Chloe’s and one holding that damned photo. Her hair is plastered to her head like a drowned rat, but she’s still the most beautiful person Chloe’s ever known. Tied with Rachel, of course. But Rachel’s gone, and Max is here, and Chloe’s stuck between the two of them.

Summary
Derek wants to say that he’s stopped hoping for some savior to swoop in and beat the shit out of Carl, because that’s stupid and childish and he ain’t a kid anymore. He’s the man of the house now, and he’s gotta get his shit together so that he can look after his mama and the girls. But even though he knows that, and he knows he ain’t got time to daydream about the cops swooping in and arresting that son of a bitch, because it’ll never happen-
Despite that, sometimes he still imagines it. Imagines Carl’s face when they kick the door of the cabin down and tell him he’s under arrest, and maybe he resists; maybe they have to rough him up a little and leave him bleeding, the way he leaves Derek bleeding. And maybe Carl starts crying, and he gets to echo Carl’s words back at him: man up, boy. Crying ain’t gonna stop anything.

Summary
The fight is brief and unsatisfying. The whole thing takes no more than five minutes and no more than two swords. They still hum for blood as Zoro sheathes them and faces the gang's growling, pissed off boss.
“Fine,” the man shouts. “We’ll take you then, huh? Plenty of folks will pay to bring a big man down low,” he says nonsensically.
“What—” A sharp pain in his ankle cuts him off.
A downed man pulls a needle out of Zoro's skin.

Summary
This time it’s Ace’s turn to freeze. “Huh,” he says dumbly. He rocks forward, hand tight on the railing beneath him, and looks over at Luffy. “Uh, hey, Luf. There something I should know?”
“Nah,” Luffy says simply, and it seems like that’s that, for a moment. But then he points an accusing finger at Sanji with a little glare and goes, “Hey, I’m not a boy!”
“What?” they all go. Sanji, Nami, Usopp and Vivi. The only one who doesn’t say anything is Zoro, who just looks at Luffy like he— they? she?— is a puzzle to solve.
(Sanji, for her part, might be feeling a little bit betrayed.)
or: Sanji thinks Luffy is a guy. (Spoiler: she’s not.)

Summary
Sanji likes to pretend he’s alright, that he doesn’t have a need sitting in his chest and making his nicotine addiction all the more prevalent. Luffy stares right through every wall he’s ever built like they’re made of glass.

Summary
Sanji liked to stay on the positive side when it came to other people and their odd little behaviors and quirks, but it didn’t seem quite right to do it for his own. It was easier to think in terms of debt and survival and penance than focusing on the positives.
The mouse sitting on his shoulder, observing his meal prep, squeaked at him, and Sanji smiled.
This indulgence was done in honor of all the poor mice friends who had been killed because he showed them kindness. When Sanji reached his hand up to offer scraps too small to save for Luffy, the mouse nuzzled his fingers.
No other reason.

Summary
Finally, when the roaring emptiness was sated and Luffy felt his strength come back, he reached out and snagged Sanji around the waist, pulling him in close and rubbing his grease-covered cheek against Sanji's chest — ignoring the yelp of protest about you're fucking up my shirt, shit-rubber!
"Saaaan-ji," he singsonged happily. "You're the best. I've got the best cook in the whole world on my crew!"
