[thecoramaria]

Hi Cora, I saw your videos and they are very helpful. However I have specific question, my fanfiction is about Jack Frost from ROTG. I need someone who would like to hear my ideas so that I can actually write it. I understand if you do not feel comfortable and I look forward to seeing more of your videos.

I'm afraid I can't because I haven't watched RotG in ages and will likely be offering beta-reading as a Patreon tier someday based on survey results (so need to preserve that "brand integrity" or whatever a better, less businessy term for that would be) but I'm tagging this with the character and fandom in case anyone else would like to put up their hand and help out 💖

Glad you find my videos helpful, thou!

Seen your layla frost mention - any good dark romance books you would recommend? 👀

oh, absolutely!!! though, fair warning - my ideal dr is a horror/thriller moonlighting as a romance so! def read the warnings.

Little Dove by Layla Frost. Maximo, honestly, is my ideal mmc. cold, collected, cunning, unflappable, with a cruel and sadistic side (but never directed toward the the fmc), and wholly devoted to Juliet on a level that would probably land him in jail irl

Then, Earth Swallowed Ocean (book 1) by Shiloh Sloane

"Southern Gothic Werewolves Fight the Devil" that's it. this is the book for me. Shiloh Sloane is my favourite author. genuinely, truly. i love her writing, i love her characters. i love her for her tiktok bio alone: I write love stories whose trailers would have Ethel Cain music in ‘em. obsessed with her. i stalk her daily on insta and tiktok. but the book: it's more horror erotica than DR, but to be totally honest, this is so far up my alley, it was practically written for me. werewolves, the devil, smut, an INSANE mmc (obsessed, mean, possessive), a strong fmc, and it's set in post WW2 Appalachia. instant fave. when i die, bury me with this book.

Cracked Blue Sky (book 2) by Shiloh Sloane

features a native fmc and i know Shiloh Sloane is white, but how she shapes Howie Black Elk was pretty realistic. i loved how much she reminded me of a few cousins, aunties. love this book!!

Snuff by Bonny Capps

dark horror erotica that you absolutely should heed the warnings to. i loved it. 5*. but it does end up on several dnf lists for being brutal and disgusting. fmc goes to Russia to discover her roots, is taken by the Bratva to feature in their "passion projects" (snuff films!), but the mmc decides he wants her all to himself. if you're queasy about totally irredeemable mmcs (sadistic, vile, possessive, obsessed, cruel), then this probably is not for you, but lucky for me, i'm into that. def on my "i couldn't look my therapist in the eye for a while" collection, though.

Lemonade by Nina Pennacchi. mmc is irredeemable (cruel, vile, obsessed). historical romance (Victorian). also on the collection. Little Mouse by Emily Rose. mafia. age gap. A Stone's Throw by Stevie Sparks. age gap (dad's best friend. Scottish hero. auction. weird rich people doing weird rich people shit. God Of Vengeance by Michelle Heard. age gap. mafia. found family. i re-read the bound series this week and my favourites are Bound by Vengeance (Growl and Cora), Bound by Duty (Dante and Valentina), and Twisted Pride (Remo and Serafina). anything by Lilith Vincent. Brutal Husband is dropping in October and i cannot wait. The Devil's Vice by Mindy Paige. trauma bonding. motorcycle gang. age gap. Little Stranger by Leigh Rivers. revenge (fmc sends mmc to prison and he gets out and comes for her). insane mmc. Spectre by Shiloh Walker. kidnapping. violence. neuro-atypical fmc. Slashed by Thalia Sanchez. fmc wants to become a Final Girl. Slasher!mmc gives her just that.

also, not a romance but if you're into dark books with compelling characters, Break Her by BG Harlen was sooo good!!!! the premise is that a professional rapist is sent to break the fmc and it's such a good psychological thriller. def not for everyone though. A Beautiful Evil by Eris Belmont has no HEA but a very brutal and malicious mml. God's Eye by Ansa Reads is brutal. loved it, dgmw. but it's def not for the faint of heart.

[veryace-ficrecs]

Saw your marineford fix it rec list. Loved the fics so much. Do you have any fic recs where corazon lives? I love that dead man so much

Hi! I'm so glad you liked the list, of course I can do that for you!

Here are some

Corazon Lives Fic Recs

I've separated it out in two ways. One where the fix happens through someone going back in time or across dimensions, so they come from a world where he did die. and I separated out the shippy content, as a lot of these works are LawLu. Hope you enjoy!

Time/Dimension Travel:

No Ship:

Stirring Up a Storm by Syluk - Rated T

The last thing Law remembered was dying. Yet now he found himself staring at a familiar face. A face that belonged to a person long dead, but very much alive again. Cora-san. If this was a second chance, Law would do anything to save him, to protect his smile and his kindness, or die trying.

Lionheart by cyan96 - Rated T

The light overhead isn't from Minion island's overcast sky but instead a steel plated ceiling shining down fluorescence, glass and plastic bottles rattling on shelves against the walls. Everywhere there's monitors and familiar machinery and the distinct tang of antiseptic, sharp beyond the memory sense of blood and snow. For half a second Law looks at it all very blankly and thinks, What The Hell. Is he dreaming. Is he hallucinating. Is he just plain dead. His sight-line completes the rotation of this impossibility to fall upon speckled jeans and a long sweeping coat. And the man standing in front of Law has the blankest expression Law's ever seen. And the man standing in front of Law has Law's father's face. Underneath Law's blood-slicked fingers, Cora-san's pulse shudders. (This is a story where the past and the present collide. Wherein thirteen year old Trafalgar Law and twenty-six year old Rocinante tumble sideways through time-space via the blue desperation of a newly eaten devil fruit, from Minion island to a future distant. Right, unwittingly, onto the submarine deck of a another Law shortly after Doflamingo’s fall.)

A World So Quiet by scarlet_thunder - Rated T

Snowflakes float gently in the air. Law has no idea when it started snowing. There is frost forming around the railing, almost reaching his fingers. Everything seems too calm. An odd sense of dread fills Law as they approach the island. He should finally feel at peace. It all just feels too familiar. Another winter island over a decade ago, it was snowing back then as well.   After defeating Kaido and Big Mom, the Heart pirates momentarily part ways with the Strawhats. They find themselves sailing towards a small winter island in the New World. The island is coated in a heavy blanket of snow, making everything eerily quiet. In the forest, Corazon feels like the last thread of life he is hanging onto is slowly slipping away. Or, Corazon lives.

blame it on the grand line by jsjsjs - Rated G

No matter how many times he tried to push them away, images of Flevance resurfaced. (in which 13-year-old law gets time zapped to a post-wano polar tang and chaos ensues, resulting in two thoroughly angsty trafalgars, twenty highly confused heart pirates, and later on, one wholesome dad rosinante).

Stasis by petiteneko - Rated G

Unbeknownst to Law, Corazon did not actually die that day. Twelve years later, he learns the truth of what really happened.

Testimonial by owl_beans - Rated G

It's too good to be true. Cora-san couldn't be alive. Shouldn't be alive. Law isn't going to believe this perfect impostor until he proves beyond a doubt that he really is Cora-san. And even if he is, what does it mean for Law?

LawLu:

Rainbow Mist by vindobonensis - Rated M

On the way to Zou, the Barto-Club and the members of the Strawhats they have on board come across an odd Grand Line phenomenon - a Rainbow Mist. But when Luffy ventures into it, chasing adventure, he returns with something - or rather someone - entirely unexpected. Set after Dressrosa. Not canon-compliant after that. Eventual Law x Luffy.

seesaw by Lolistar92 - Rated G

Rayleigh nods. “Roger explained it after. It’s a trial for those that carry the Will of the D. A chance to face your greatest life’s regret. Change destiny.” Law’s brows scrunch together. “This isn’t my -”  he pauses, something clicking. “We switched.” Or, the Pirate King cannot have regrets.

No Time/Dimension Travel:

No Ship:

Small Changes by SweetScentences - Rated T

Doflamingo and his crew don't touch the treasure chest Law is hidden in. A few other things change too.

Little White Lies by PitViperOfDoom - Rated T

It's not quite an idea, only a piece of one. Barely a notion. But it's something, in the same way that the Ope-Ope fruit is not quite a cure but the first step toward being cured. Cora has given him that much, and the least Law can do is give back.

Red Hair Law by Eraman - Rated T

When Akagami no Shanks hears about a tall blonde man blowing up hospitals he wants to figure out what this is all about. One thing leads to another and now the Red Hair Pirates have two new members and a little kid they all kind of adopt. Especiall Benn and Shanks. Things doesn't start out too smoothly though… who knew being a parent could be so difficult?

To Live Free by KivaEmber - Rated G

Corazon wakes up. Considering he's supposed to be dead, this is pretty confusing.

Spring Storms and Paperwork (and how Sengoku feels about that) by Kasmusser - Rated G

A spring storm rolls in over Marineford leaving Sengoku little to do but paperwork. He mostly just rubberstamps the work of others. He gets a bit of surprise and changes an opinion. Otherwise known as Sengoku thought his son was dead and learns the truth through a bounty

LawLu:

Supportive Granddads United by LannisPuff - Rated T

Garp the Fist, hero of the marines and doting grandfather. One of those two was less known to the world, but certainly a defining trait for those who knew him. So when his precious grandson is suffering from his soulmates unknown illness, Garp is not going to sit idle.

it'll work out fine by stainedXglassXmasquerade - Rated G

Everyone knows strange things happen on the Grand Line. Dreams from an unknown future aren't as common, but, well, Luffy's a D and all the information checks out. In which Garp and Sengoku interfere and collect people as they go, Luffy gets a best friend and two brothers for his birthday, Drake is brought along for the ride, Shanks isn't arrested on sight and Makino is happy that everyone's becoming good friends.

Take out as in on a date, right? by chenziee - Rated G

When Admiral Trafalgar Law was ordered to "take Straw Hat Luffy out," he thought it was strange. But who was he to defy his superiors?

Naga Father (Araza) x gender-neutral reader - 2

"Just a few kids from school won't hurt, Mr. Araza. You have to give Sam a chance at a normal life," you say in exasperation, shaking some food into your cat's bowl and balancing the phone against your shoulder.

You've been babysitting Sam occasionally for a few months, enough to feel somewhat comfortable with pressing the subject of holding a birthday party for Sam.

"He's not normal," is Mr. Araza's reply, and you grit your teeth for a second before you blow your breath out slowly, forcing yourself to calm down.

"I know you're trying to toughen him up in your own way... But he's going to end up hating you if you don't ease up now and then. Sam is smart, you know. He can figure out how to live in a world of humans on his own."

"I know what's best for my son," Mr. Araza says, and you hear the shuffle of papers in the background.

"Oh, are you working? Did my call interrupt you? Sorry, I'll hang up now. Just think about it, okay?"

Before he has the chance to respond, you hang up.

"He's a tough nut to crack, Ginger," you say to your orange cat who is happily crunching down on his food. "I wonder what happened to make him like that?"

On a whim, you grab your phone and look his name up. There he is, featured in an article from a prominent news station. He was one of the two nagas rescued from a monster trafficking ring that got busted fifteen years ago. There's a picture of him with the other monsters that were rescued. He's staring blankly at the camera, a blanket wrapped around his thin shoulders. The other naga was too weak and passed away in the hospital. Everything makes sense now.

You put your phone down and stare hard at the wall. No wonder he's so fiercely protective of his son and pushing him to survive the best he can. Your phone buzzes and you look down to see a text from your best friend, Cora.

Hi Tobi, it reads, I know this is short notice, but I totally forgot I had a marriage counseling appointment today and we can't leave Annabelle alone! Do you have 2 hours to spare? I made chocolate chip cookies this morning!

A smile curves onto your lips and you type a reply.

I'll be there in 10 minutes

Cora only lives a couple of blocks away, so you end up walking there. Cora and her wife are in the driveway, ready to leave.

"Tobi, you're an angel!" Cora says, coming forward. "I present to you my devil spawn."

Annabelle squirms restlessly in her mother's grip, nibbling on her forearm. The five-year-old had new teeth coming in and apparently, her mother's arm is a serviceable chew toy.

"She's got a ton of energy today," you laugh and scoop her up.

The pup smells like baby shampoo and cookies. You wave her parents off and hoist her onto your shoulder.

"So what do you want to do?" You ask her.

"I want ice cream!" She yells, her knee catching you in the ribs.

"Oof. Isn't it a little too close to lunch?"

"I want a burger too! With cheese!"

"Demanding, aren't you? An alpha in the making for sure. Okay. We'll have burgers and ice cream. Just don't tell your mommy okay?"

She grins and nods. The commercial strip is within walking distance and even if it's a bit far away you figure Annabelle could use a long walk. As you walk together you're making a mental note not to marry a werewolf. Even a half-werewolf would be hyper, but Annabelle is out of this world. She's so bouncy that half the time her feet aren't even on the ground. You're forced to herd her around now and then so she doesn't hop off the sidewalk.

You're relieved when you reach the ice cream shop because it has a fenced-in playground.

"I'm going to make a sandcastle!" Annabelle shrieks, charging towards the sandbox.

"Okay, darling." You grab your phone and text Cora.

Bestie, what's up with Belle today?

Too much sugar :( my bad. I caved and let her have frosted flakes for breakfast Cora texts back.

Oh boy. Then ice cream is going to be a bad idea. Idly you walk up to the swings, wondering how you're going to convince her to get something else. And then you notice Mr. Araza and freeze. He pauses too, looking down at you. You have to put a hand up to your face to hide your grin because he's on the monkey bars. It's sturdy enough to hold his weight, but he looks ridiculous. His son is underneath, head craned up to look up at his father.

"Hello," you say politely.

"Papa is stuck," Sam says, turning to look at you. "Help him, Tobi."

You gulp down a burst of laughter and bite your lip hard, trying not to let your amusement show. Mr. Araza's golden eyes narrow, and his tongue flicks out, tasting the air. His eyes turn into annoyed slits and he lets out a huff. His tail is wound through the rather sophisticated monkey bars, and you can see he's stuck in more than one place.

"How did you even get up there?" You ask.

"I was... Teaching Sam how to climb," he says, and you can't help the small laugh you make this time.

"I do not find this humorous, neither should you," he hisses. "My tail is going numb. If it's not too much trouble, I would appreciate a hand."

You glance down at Sam. "Hey, I brought a friend with me, and she's the same age as you. Maybe you could play together?"

Sam looks doubtfully at Annabelle, who has forgotten about her sandcastle and is digging a hole in the sandbox. Then he nods and shyly slithers over to say hello. You turn back to Mr. Araza and put your game face on.

"How about I make you a deal? Promise to actually think about throwing a party for Sam, and I'll help you."

His pupils widen in shock. "You can't be serious," he scoffs.

You reach out and poke at his tail. "I dunno, Mr. Araza. You seem stuck pretty good."

"For heaven's sake," he rolls his eyes and his shoulders slump a little. "Fine. Quickly now, I look ridiculous."

You grin. "Then it's a deal," you say and walk around him in a slow circle, calculating.

You're not sure how you're going to get him out. The monkey bars are about six feet high, and he's right on top.

"Okay, I think I've got this," you say and begin to climb.

The next ten minutes are the most awkward ones of your life. You almost fall off twice. Mr. Araza twists his upper body to look at you, and his mouth turns down.

"You're going to hurt yourself this way."

"I'm good," you say, hooking your feet against the bars as you grab the thinnest section of his tail at the end. "You've kind of tied yourself into a knot here, mister," you tell him. "Can you move the end of your tail to the left?"

His tail moves, the end of it curling around your wrist.

"Okay," you mumble.

You succeed in freeing that section and move upwards.

"You're not a cat, you know. You can't fit in just any space," you tell him and you wrap your arms around his tail and press your chest against it like you're about to lift something really heavy.

Which is exactly what you're about to do. His tail is a solid hunk of muscle, his scales rasping against your bare arms. Maybe you press a little too hard or something, but he hisses and it's not a  normal hiss. It's a "get your fucking hands off me right now" kind of hiss.

You jerk your hands back. "Sorry, sorry," you say.

You have just touched softer, more sensitive parts of his tail where scales have been ripped away. Naga scales are incredibly hard to damage or remove but after your research this morning, you can guess how that happened.

His claws clank against the bars as he repositions himself. He won't look at you but maybe that's a good thing. If he looks at you, he'll be able to tell that you know.

"Just get on with it," he mumbles, wiping sweat from his forehead.

You take a deep breath and carry on. He doesn't make a single sound after that, not even when you have to pull so hard that he shudders.

"Need some help?" An employee from the ice cream shop calls over, finally having noticed.

"No, I've got it," you call back.

Just one more section to go. Araza is sprawled on the monkey bars, his torso pressing against them. That can't be comfortable. The way he's gone so still and pliant worries you.

"Are you okay?"

He nods, his hair falling over his face.

"Look at me," you command. "Please?"

He darts a furtive glance over his shoulder. His eyes are glassy, like he's partly somewhere else. Not good. Quickly, you balance your feet on the bars and tug. He comes free and falls off the monkey bars with a thud, taking you with him.

"We're okay," you say to Sam and Annabelle, who look up curiously.

"They're playing," Annabelle giggles to her new friend.

Sam looks worried, but then smiles and goes back to playing. You realize your legs are tangled up in his tail and gently extract them.

"You okay?"

He shoots upright, rolling over to the underside of his tail is against the floor.

"I'm fine. Thank you," he says airily, brushing leaves out of his hair.

All signs of vulnerability are gone.

"Great," you say, trying not to sound too bright as you stand up and dust yourself off. "I'm sure you won't do that again," you laugh.

He flexes his claws. "I have learned a valuable lesson. Your human trappings are terrible replacements for trees."

"Try a park next time," you suggest. "Were you here for ice cream?"

"I promised him a reward for his hard work in school. I did not think he would suggest such a ridiculous-"

"We're here for ice cream too!" You say brightly. "How about we all go in and get some?"

If Mr. Araza is about to protest, Annabelle's excited screaming knocks it out of him.

"Please do not tell me that is your child," he says flatly. "She is untrained."

"She's just a kid," you say. "She can be very loud, I'll give her that."

"Come on," you tell the two children, "let's go get ice cream."

Later on, after you've dropped off a sleeping Annabelle- amazingly enough - at her home and gone home with a gift of a box of chocolate chip cookies, you get a call from Mr. Araza.

"I have made up my mind," he says.

"About the birthday party?"

"Yes," he says, and you begin to dance in triumph.

"On one condition," he adds sharply. "I don't know what a party entails. I'll need your help."

"Oh, you don't have to ask twice!" You say happily.

Maybe the upright naga is finally warming up to a little living...

The amount of times I mention "ice cream" in here, lol! 😭

[synthapostate]

@lastdaysofwar, Day 24: Commitment (Hermann Gottlieb/Newton Geiszler)

Continued from Day 13 (Aftermath/Groundhog Day/Flowers)

“So, I have some questions about the logistics,” Newton says, holding the ring just out of reach of Hermann’s outstretched hand. Hermann frowns.

“What d’you mean, what logistics? You’ve proposed. I’ve accepted. You know what happens next.” He stretches out until his fingertip just touches the ring that rests so tantalizingly in Newton’s hand. Newton does not oblige.

“What do we put on the invitations?” he asks, staring off into the empty space over Hermann’s shoulder. “Do we do invitations? Do we have to invite people?”

“Newton.”

“Do you want a religious ceremony? Is it okay for you to marry an atheist?”

With a sigh, Hermann drops his hand. He won’t be getting that ring any time soon.

“Are we inviting your family?”

“No,” Hermann says under his breath. It doesn’t matter what he says. Newton isn’t listening.

Hermann settles on the couch and makes a start on eating their romantic, two-person dessert while Newton continues to bombard him with questions.

He had been excited to treat his partner to an anniversary dinner at one of the finest restaurants in Hong Kong. Trust Newton to throw off his romantic plans by being even more romantic, and then to throw that off, as well. The suggestion of takeaway and a night in, managing the proposal with all the trappings but without an audience—that’s perfect. It would have been perfect, if only Newton could allow his own momentum to carry him through

“You have to put the parents’ names on the invites, right?” Newton babbles, still waving the engagement ring aloft. “That’s what Tendo and Allison did, remember? ‘The parents of Allison Marie De Cora invite you to celebrate her marriage to—’ Hermann, which one of us is the bride?”

“We’re both the groom,” Hermann reminds him, mildly concerned that his new fiancé is doing something so out of character as to worry about heteronormative gender roles for an event that, frankly, they both consider a mostly ceremonial indicator of a commitment that already exists. “Newton, this doesn’t change anything, you know. Not about us, who we are.”

“Doesn’t it?” Newton asks wildly. Hermann sets down his spoon with a jolt of surprise.

“Darling, are you nervous?”

“Yeah, of course, why shouldn’t I be? I’m marrying you.”

“And what is that supposed to mean?” Hermann asks, with the slightest edge of frost in his tone.

“Your standards are, like, ridiculously high. It’s a lot to live up to, okay?”

“Oh, Newton.” Dear Newton. As if Hermann could ever truly be disappointed in him. Exasperated, certainly. Driven to distraction, often. But never disappointed.

“Look, I’m just saying, I want to do right by you, okay? Don’t laugh, I just care about you so much, and I want to be a good husband, and I don’t know how to do that, I barely know how to be a person—what if I fuck it up—what if you start to hate me—what if we get divorced—”

“Newton!” Hermann says sharply.

Newt falls silent. Hermann points at the couch cushion beside him.

“Sit.”

Newton sits.

“Newton, I have known you for well over a decade,” Hermann says severely. “I have seen the very worst you have to offer. And I can tell you, with perfect sincerity, that you are no longer capable of surprising me with your bad behavior.”

“Oh my god, you hate me and you think I’m boring!”

“I adore you, you git,” Hermann snaps. “I’ve seen you at your worst and your best, I know you inside and out, you’re the only man I’ll ever love, and there is nothing in this world that could ever entice me to leave you! If anyone is divorcing anyone around here, it’ll be you divorcing me!”

“What, are you on crack?” Newton screeches. “I would never!”

“Then why don’t you prove it? Put the ring on my damn finger and make it official!”

“Fine!” He jams the ring on hard enough to take off a layer of skin at the knuckle. Hermann curls his hand into a fist. It stings, but he has his engagement ring now and it will not be coming off.

“Thank you, Newton!” With that done, Hermann shoves his fiancé back to lie flat on the couch.

“Hot,” Newton says. “But seriously, the logistics? Am I taking your name, are you taking mine, are we hyphenating? You seem like too much of a traditionalist to want two last names.”

“We can talk about this later! For now, I want to put your mouth to better use.” He hesitates a moment. “You’re right, I don’t want to hyphenate.”

“I love y—” Newton begins, but he doesn’t get his sentence out before Hermann tackles him, and keeps him entirely too busy to talk.

TBC…

Moodboard • Episode 00: Prologue

The clacking of your heels was drowned out by the chaos of an office. You straightened your blazer and asked the receptionist to point you in the direction of your new field partner. She extended a long nail and offered a kind smile, and you followed her directions around desks and ringing phones and the toss of rubber band balls to a desk near the back corner. 

A man leaned back in his chair, the aluminum groaning under his weight. His ankles were crossed atop the desk, and he was licking pink yogurt off a plastic spoon. 

“Special Agent Steve Harrington?” You asked.

He looked a bit dumfounded, glancing first around the room before sizing you up. His brown hair was a bit unruly, and his shirt had been unbuttoned to reveal a patch of chest hair and a white tank underneath. “Yeah?”

You introduced yourself, extending a hand. 

Steve scrambled upright, tossing his spoon to the desktop and meeting your gesture with a clammy, but firm grip. He grimaced in pseudo-apology, a frown creased between full brows. 

He towered over you, broad shoulders and long limbs. You’d read his file. He’d been given a handful of medals of honor and bravery for his stint on the battlefield, and it showed in his lithe frame, the muscles that roped his exposed forearms, his hunched shoulders. You think you found further evidence in the dark circles beneath his eyes, the scar etched into his lower lip. 

“Owens speaks highly of you.” He said, offering you a seat at the desk. 

You slid another aluminum chair over and watched him toss his yogurt cup and spoon into a nearby trash can. The sting of strawberries and cream tickled your nose. “I don’t think I’ve ever heard Owens say something bad about someone. I think he’d tell a Demogorgon she was beautiful to avoid hurting her feelings.”

Your comment prompted a hesitant smile, and the wag of his head. “Have you been out before?”

“On the field?”

He nodded.

You swallowed. You’d seen one Blight, in your training. Your shoes squelched into barren land. You hadn’t gotten the smell of rot from your nostrils for a week. 

“My expertise is in psychotherapy and deescalations.” You said instead. 

Steve didn’t appear impressed.

You supposed talking people off ledges and removing a shaking hand from a trigger might be a little underwhelming to someone who had fought inter dimensional creatures and people with telekinetic powers. 

“Call came in from Green Bay, twelve-year-old girl convinced her foster brother to eat a box of detergent.” Steve pulled a file from the top drawer and tossed it to the table in front of you. 

Your stomach churned. You’d already read the brief, already seen the photos. This was your job now, time to toughen up.

You nodded. “When do we leave?”

—-

Your hands trembled, aching from the cold. Your snot froze to your upper lip and stung in your nostrils. The wind whipped at your cheekbones, and your boots crunched in the snow. 

“Cora, put the knife down.” The glint of steel shined in your periphery, the knife floating mid-air, held inches from your throat.

Your gaze remained trained on the little girl. The ends of her hair crusted with frost and blood trickled from her upper lip.

The snow around her had been stained red with Steve’s blood. 

“We aren’t here to hurt you,” you explained, hands still raised. “We want to help. We know others like you. Other kids with powers.”

“Meredith told me she would keep me safe,” the girl sobbed, voice echoing across the barren field. 

You released an exhale for the woman you’d found in the kitchen, a foster mom turned puddle. Steve tracked Cora’s bloody footprints across the backyard and through the woods. 

You glanced down at her legs. Her ankles were swollen and purple.

“Meredith called us to help you, Cora. She asked us to take you back with us to our facility in the city. We can introduce you to other kids. We can teach you how to hone your powers.”

“I don’t want to leave!” She screamed, and you felt the weight of the knife against your chest. 

—-

“How’re you doing, really?” Steve elbowed you as you both stepped out of Owens’s office. 

You straightened your blazer, itching at the gauze on your chest.

You signed up for this. You’d done the training. You’d worked with a myriad of mental illnesses in all demographics. You told Owens as much. 

When you didn’t answer, Steve pulled you into an empty board room. That crease etched between his brow, and he leaned to eye level.

“The second you feel like this is too much, I need you to tell me. There has to be trust between us. We’re supposed to have each other’s backs out there and in here.” He emphasized his last words with fingertips to the tabletop. 

You chewed back a remark on how frustrating it had been to travel with him, to work with him, to ask him a plethora of questions that had been shut down. Instead you took a deep breath and said, “How are you doing, Steve? Really?”

He shifted, sat on the table’s edge, crossed his arms across his chest. The shoulders of his blazer raised to tickle the hairs at the base of his neck.

He’d told Owens the same things you had. All in a day’s work. You can’t save everyone. Things that you had echoed despite the churn in your stomach.

Meredith’s body was etched into your eyelids like the blue glow of staring into the sun. You’d slept with four blankets to avoid a chill. 

Steve contemplated your question for a moment before his shoulders released with a sigh. “That sucked. All of those kids will be without a mom. I keep thinking that if we’d gotten there five minutes sooner…”

You shook your head. “There was no way. The flight was delayed. The roads were icy.” You knew better than to blame yourself. You’d been taught better than that.

“You asked me how I was doing,” Steve cut you off. 

You stared back at him, catching the vulnerability in his gaze. You swallowed, nodded. “I keep replaying everything I said to her, wondering if I could have said something different to talk her down.”

Steve shook his head, perfect coif wobbling. “You said all you could. It was actually really impressive.”

Your face warmed at the compliment and shrugged. “Don’t sound so surprised.”

He snorted at this and tapped at your elbow, nodding to a handful of agents walking your way. “Want some lunch? My treat.”

You nodded and let him lead you out of the conference room and down the long hall toward the elevators. Your shoes clacked the whole way.

[auxiliarydetective]

Happy birthday, Sanji!

I couldn't just let this day go by without posting something special for my favourite boy. Originally, I wanted to write two mini-fics, one with him and Cora and one with him and Luna, but the Cora one got pretty long (surprising, I know), so that's the one you're getting!

This probably takes place quite a while after OPLA season 1, but it's spoiler-free, so enjoy!

Sanji slowly opened his eyes, taking in his surroundings. The sun was barely starting to come up behind the horizon, casting a low light into the men’s bedroom. Time for Sanji to get up. Almost like a marionette on strings, running on instinct alone, he crawled out of his hammock and shuffled over to the closet. He had to dodge around the limbs hanging off Luffy’s hammock – that straw-headed idiot slept like a starfish – but even that was long-since something that Sanji did unconsciously. Swiftly, he picked out a shirt and suit for the day, getting dressed without much thought behind it. He left the top few buttons open and threw his jacket over his shoulder, then made his way to the kitchen.

However, his mind was shaken awake just a little when he saw that there was a light on in the kitchen. Was Luffy trying to sneak food again? No, impossible, he had been sleeping in the men’s room only a minute ago and Sanji definitely would have seen him if he had left. Had he left the light on? Probably not, right? He never did. With furrowed brows, Sanji pushed open the door. But what he saw inside wasn’t what he had expected at all.

When he opened the door, Cora was standing there waiting for him, with a small cake in her hands that was topped off by a burning candle.

“Happy birthday!” she beamed, looking so much prettier than Sanji could ever imagine.

But he just stared with wide eyes, confused and eternally grateful, wondering just how he had gotten this lucky.

“Don’t tell me you forgot,” Cora giggled, a sound that might as well be angelic to Sanji’s ears.

“I did forget, yeah,” Sanji chuckled, finally moving from his frozen state. “I’m not even awake yet, don’t blame me.”

“Well, blow out the candle, before the wax gets anywhere.”

Sanji smiled widely and tossed his jacket over a kitchen counter. He finally walked up to Cora and blew out the candle, just like she had asked. Then, he easily took the cake from her with one hand, placing it down next to them while he pulled her closer by the waist, easing her into a kiss. She tasted vaguely of blueberries, giving him a hunch of what flavor his birthday cake might have, if the blue décor hadn’t already been an indication.

The cake itself was covered in white cream – butter cream, perhaps – but the edges were decorated with a rich blue frosting, its color exactly the same as the little blue candle atop the cake. Dark pink hearts were placed along the top of the cake, held in place by little tufts of blue frosting. The color coordination was perfect. Of course it was. This cake had been made by Cora after all.

When Sanji broke the kiss, Cora sank back down onto her heels with a bright smile, nestling at his collar. He pressed another kiss to her forehead and she felt him smile against her skin.

“Are you happy?” she asked.

“More than happy,” he replied. “This is the best birthday ever.”

Cora laughed. “Don’t say that when you haven’t tasted my baking creations yet.”

“Creations?” Sanji echoed. “You made more?”

“Well, what recipe do you think makes just five tiny hearts? I hid the rest of them in my room so that Luffy wouldn’t find them. They’re not for him.”

“So, your hearts belong to me?” Sanji asked with a wink.

Cora couldn’t help but giggle, a giggle that was so infectious that Sanji had to laugh at his own bad joke.

“Every single one of them,” she promised, sealing it with a kiss to his collarbone as proof.

Sanji ran his fingers along the sewing needle pierced through her ear, moving further back until he reached the hair tie keeping her hair in a bun, tugging lightly at it as a signal. Cora took his hint and brought her hands to the back of her head to let her hair down, giving Sanji a splendid view at her chest in the process.

“How about we put your lovely creation in the fridge for a minute? Wouldn’t want the butter cream to get warm, would we?”

Cora was about to ask how he knew that it was butter cream but instead settled for: “Are you sure? You might not have it all to yourself then.” She knew that tone of his. If she let him remove all distractions now, his hands and lips wouldn’t leave her for a long time to follow.

“We’ve got plenty of time until the others get here,” Sanji said. He always said that. “Besides, I know how to defend what’s mine.”

With that, he placed a kiss on Cora’s forehead and the argument was settled. He swept the cake from its position and motioned it into the fridge without any more protests.

“Just how long did this take to make?” he asked, taking the time to admiring Cora’s work of art once more before he closed the door.

“Oh, not too long,” Cora shrugged, avoiding his gaze.

“Darling…” Sanji sighed, but he couldn’t help but smile. “How long did everything take to make? The cake and the hearts.”

“If I tell you, you’ll just be upset.”

“I won’t be upset. Never, not at you.”

“Can’t you just enjoy this without worrying about how long it took?”

“I’m already worrying,” Sanji said softly, cupping Cora’s face with his hands. “So just tell me how long it took so that I can make it up to you.”

“That’s not how birthdays work.”

“It’s how I work.”

Cora sighed heavily, a smile stuck to her lips. “Fine. It took just over three hours. I had to get the colors just right and-“

“Three hours? You’ve been up since 2 o’clock?”

“1:15, actually, but-“

“No, nuh-uh, no buts. You’re taking a nap after lunch at the latest, okay? Can’t have my sweetheart be too sleep-deprived, can we?”

“No… I would never do that to my prince. I’ll even take Zoro with me, that way he won’t get jealous and you won’t get into fights.”

“That’s my girl,” Sanji hummed, his hands roaming across her waist. “Now, three hours, that’s three times sixty minutes, times sixty seconds, one kiss per second, that’s-“

“Sanji!” Cora gasped, feeling his grip around her tighten.

“Eh, who cares, I’ll just lose count anyway.”

And with that, he started peppering Cora’s face with kisses, leaving her beet-red and giggling.

“Wait, wait,” she squeaked, trying half-heartedly to push him away. “You haven’t even seen your gift yet.”

“I thought this was my gift,” Sanji smirked. “Don’t think I haven’t noticed. You’re wearing that dress that I love so much.”

“I was so scared to stain it.”

“That would’ve been a shame. It really shows off your curves.”

Cora laughed. “Of course it does, because it’s hiding nothing. There’s barely any fabric on it and the skirt is so short that I can’t even bend a centimeter without looking incredibly naughty.”

“Exactly, that’s what I was saying.”

“Pervert.”

“Maybe, but I’m your favourite pervert.”

“That you are. By the way, as soon as you get your hands off me, I’m putting on a cardigan, because I am not walking around the ship like this. We could be sailing into danger at any moment; you know how the Grand Line is – and how our crew is.”

“That means if I never let you go, I’ll never lose this lovely sight?”

“Sanji…”

“Fine, fine… But do me a favor and wear my jacket. You know I love to see you wear it because—”

“— because I look so adorable in it,” Cora completed his sentence.

“Because you look so adorable in it,” Sanji nodded. “I’ll even warm it up for you. Does that sound like an agreement?”

“Anything for my birthday boy… Will you open your real gift now?”

“Anything for the love of my life.”

Sanji slipped into his jacket, then let himself be led over to the dinner table. On its glossy surface sat a square box with a skillfully tied ribbon – the same color as the candle and the frosting on the cake, Sanji noted.

“Go on,” Cora encouraged him. “Open it.”

Carefully, Sanji loosened the ribbon and placed it neatly on the table. Then, he finally opened the lid. Immediately, his eyes lit up.

“Are those—?!”

“Your favourite shoes,” Cora confirmed. “Those that you wanted to throw out because they were damaged. Well, a copy of them.”

“They look the exact same! This is incredible!”

“Well… They’re not the exact same. Take a closer look.”

Carefully, Sanji lifted one of the shoes out of the box, twisting it in his hands. When he still couldn’t figure it out, he raised an eyebrow at Cora. With a giggle, she wrapped one of her hands around one of his, placed his fingers onto the tip of the shoe, and pressed down. The shoe didn’t budge!

“Steal caps?” Sanji gasped. “But it’s so light.”

“That’s because it’s not steel, it’s titanium,” Cora explained. “Kick people as much as you like, set yourself on fire if you want, but these shoes aren’t going to be damaged anytime soon.”

“You’re wonderful,” Sanji smiled, gently kissing her temple.

“There’s more… Look, the box is taller than that.”

Really, Sanji found that there was a sort of platform in the box that protected whatever was beneath it from the weight of the shoes. He lifted it out of the box and placed both shoes neatly on it, then looked at what else his princess had gifted him with. His smile wouldn’t leave his face as he took a brand-new shirt out of the box, subtle details of embroidery scattered across the fabric. Beneath it was a new suit jacket with the matching pair of trousers.

“I figured you deserved a new one,” Cora just shrugged, as if tailoring a full suit wasn’t hours upon hours’ worth of work.

But at the very bottom of the box sat the grand finale: A dark blue vest with intricate yet subtle details. Sanji lost his breath at the sight and his eyes sparkled like gems. As he lifted it out of the box, the details on the vest gave off a slight fuchsia shimmer. Not only that, but Sanji noticed that the pattern of swirls and waves included a little signature, placed on the left pocket: A sewing needle with three earrings dangling from it.

“Don’t tell me…?” Sanji whispered, his eyes becoming glossy with tears.

“Mhm,” Cora just hummed, pressing her lips together, trying to control her excitement.

“No, you didn’t…”

“Mhm. Hand-painted. Every last detail.”

“Cora, you’re incredible,” Sanji gasped, wiping a tear from his face.

He placed down the vest with utmost care, then pulled Cora into a tight hug, lifting her off the ground and into his arms. She wrapped her legs around his waist, absolutely certain that he wouldn’t ever drop her or let her go.

“What have I ever done to deserve you?” Sanji asked softly before gently locking lips with her.

“You’re you,” Cora replied when they parted, leaning into him once again, continuing between slow, intimate kisses: “You’re gentle. You’re kind. You know just how to make me smile when I feel down. You make me feel safe. There’s just one you in the world, and I’m so grateful that that one you is here with me.”

“I love you, Cora,” Sanji mumbled. “More than anything else in the world. You’re my All Blue, forever and ever, even if we never find it—”

“And we will find it. I promise you, we’ll find it. No matter what tries to get in our way. And then we’ll spend the rest of our lives there. You and me.”

“And the mosshead.”

“And the mosshead, if he can stay in one place for very long, the World’s Greatest Swordsman that he’s gonna be.”

“Is that a proposal?”

“You know it’s not my place to propose. I know how much you’d love to plan that all out.”

“Who says I’m not doing it already?” Sanji asked with a smile. “Planning it out.”

“You are?” Cora gasped, her cheeks a bright red. “Are you?”

“If I were, would I be telling you? I want it to be a surprise. But I’ll tell you this much: I’m thinking about it. Day and night I’m thinking about it, about how my perfect little princess will finally be mine. Forever and ever, happily ever after.”

“My prince,” Cora hummed, giving him another kiss. “Just know that, if you asked… I wouldn’t say no.”
