I'll never get native-English speakers who misspell Ghirahim's name as "Girahim." Like. It's written. It's only writeen. That's the only way you know his name. We didn't even get an out-loud pronounciation until Hyrule Warriors.

Fun fact: I found this guy on Youtube years ago, among other things, dissing on Ghirahim in his SkSw review. You wanna know how he pronounced his name?

Jeerahim.

The GIF discourse has nothing on this.

Tommy Kinard, from a long line of Gloucester fishermen. Hence his penchant for ill-fitting jeans, flannel, and affection via bitchiness.

He and Evan are sitting on the little bench outside The Causeway waiting for their chowder—best in the country, hands down—when Evan, who's been quietly studying boats in various stages of winter wrapping across the road, suddenly asks, "Why did you leave here? It's awesome. The downtown area looks like something out of a postcard—"

"It does not," Tommy interjects. "Rockport's downtown, on the other hand..."

"—and the beaches feel like real beaches, even if they do smell like shit."

Tommy tilts his head back and inhales the heavy, but comfortingly familiar stench of low tide. "I left because the town's unofficial motto used to be 'Come for the heroin, stay because you've developed a crippling heroin addiction.'"

Unimpressed, Evan nudges him with an elbow, then jumps to his feet to get the door for a family of six who will be waiting at least a month for a table big enough to accommodate them to open up.

The Causeway is approximately the size of an elevator car. Despite its outward appearance, it's relatively new; it hadn't been there when Tommy was a kid. The little cinema next door had been, though, and he feels a surge of pride for the Williams family that it's still going after all this time.

"No, but seriously." Evan hunkers back down next to him. "Why'd you leave?"

"Why'd you leave Hershey?" Tommy counters.

The corner of Evan's mouth twitches knowingly. He's got Tommy's number in a way no one else does. "You know why I left. But you could've stayed here and done anything. Massachusetts might be even more progressive than California—I mean, it was the first state to legalize gay marriage. Plus, I know there's an air base nearby."

"Hanscom," Tommy says. "It belongs to the Air Force and I wouldn't have been caught dead joining them."

Evan gives him a dubious look. "But the Army was okay?"

"Don't you know, Evan? The Army is for real men," he says with a grin, putting an emphasis on it so Evan knows just whose words he's parroting. "The Air Force is for fa—"

"Yeah, okay, I got it," Evan says loudly, cutting a furtive glance at the people on the other bench, who are too busy looking at their phones and not talking to each other to pay attention to any casual homophobia. "You're gonna get us run out of town."

"Please, it's Gloucester. If anything, they'll probably join in."

Evan deflates a little, pouting, and Tommy is helpless against the urge to press a kiss to his hair. What Evan doesn't understand is that Massachusetts is like an impressionist painting: beautiful if you're standing back far enough to see the whole of it, but get closer and it's as ugly as anywhere else.

"My point was," Tommy continues, "I left because I needed something more than what this place could give me, same as you. And also I needed to be somewhere with a spring wind chill above -10°."

"You bitch if the temps hit above 70," Evan points out.

"I also bitch if the day ends in Y." Tommy shrugs. "Bitching is the official state sport, especially when it comes to the weather."

Checking his phone for the time, Evan heaves an impatient sigh and drops his chin onto Tommy's shoulder. He's too used to LA's food trucks to last a minute here. "There's so much here, though. Like, Worcester looked fun."

Tommy winces. "It's pronounced 'Wuss-ter'."

Wide-eyed, Evan lifts his head. "You're shitting me."

"I shit you not," Tommy says. "And Worcester's okay. It's big, though. And a pain in the ass to navigate."

"What's beyond Worcester?"

"Nobody knows." He coughs out a 'fuck' when Evan buries an elbow in his gut.

Laughing, Evan echoes, "'Fahk.' There's the accent I've been hoping to hear. I mean, heeyah. Try and hide it all you want, Kinard, I know what you are."

"Okay, Hershey, I dare you to say 'water' like a normal person," Tommy can't help but tease. "Remember, there's no U or D in it."

Eyes sparkling, Evan presses close with a shit-eating grin and says slyly, "I'll show U where to put a D."

Before Tommy can shove him off the bench for that one, the door to the restaurant opens and a head pops out. "Order for Kinard?"

"Saved by the clams," Evan chortles, standing up when Tommy goes to grab the bag from the kid. He gives a long, luxurious stretch, and Tommy can't help but let his eyes be drawn to Evan's belly when his shirt rides up. "Where do you want to eat? We could go sit down by the beach. There's a big dahlia garden display there."

Huh. They still do that? That's actually kind of sweet, but Tommy has plans and they don't involve the public.

"If you don't mind a bit of light trespassing, we'll head up to Mussel Point. The view's well worth it."

Intrigued, Evan lifts his brows. "Trespassing? Gee, Tommy, you take me to all the best places."

That snark is nowhere to be found half an hour later when Evan's full of clam chowder and getting ruthlessly jacked off while the ocean bays at his feet, but Tommy doesn't call him on it.

Over and Over Again.

Portgas D. Ace x Reader

Summary: It was one thing to find out that other timelines exist, but it was another to find out your place in them. Especially when that place was at the side of a man you didn’t call yours in this timeline.

Inspired by the “Would you fall in love with me again” trend 🤷‍♀️

I will fall in love with you, over and over again.

The tavern is lively, loud voices echoing and the drinks flowing easily. Ace pushes the swinging door open to step inside and a few heads turn.

Fire fist Ace had a certain presence about him, after all.

With a quick scan of the room, Ace drifts a step closer to you, arm brushing you own. “Stay close.” He mutters as he pushes through to the bar top. Ace presses his way in and nudges open a spot for you at his side. “We’re looking for someone.” The bartender regards Ace closely before offering you the same close observation. “Teller.”

“What do you need with the woman?” Eyes narrow at the two of you.

“Information.” You speak up, the skepticism written on his face. “We aren’t looking for any trouble.” The man clicks his tongue as if debating if that was true.

With a narrow eyed look at Ace, he finally relents. “Side door, end of the hall. We will be notified if you two cause us any trouble and trust me, you don’t want to cause any trouble.”

Ace almost laughs but feels your elbow nudging into his ribs in warning.

You follow the man’s directions to a door with orange tinted stain. You offer a soft knock, but Ace pushes straight into the room without a second to protest.

The old woman is sat cross legged, iridescent orange scales running along her exposed ankle before disappearing into the flowy pants she wore, with a pleasant smile on her face. You both step into the room with determination, but falter as she speaks your names into the quiet room. “I’ve been expecting you both.”

“Expecting-“

“We are looking for someone.” Ace’s deep voice interrupts you in effort to hide your shared surprise.

Ace was a skeptic in a sense. Seeking out the mermaid living far from fishman island hadn’t been his idea. The man had no qualms with mermaids as a whole, but this one was different. She was rumored to be the only person on this plane of existence that can tap into other existences- other timelines of the world. It was a notion that made Ace very uncomfortable.

But this other worldly ability meant that she could find anyone, anywhere, in any existence.

Ace is rigid as Teller speaks, and business is completed without a hitch. The woman was wise beyond years and seemed very eager to lend her aid for whatever reason. That’s what made you uncomfortable. Her willingness to lend the aid to total strangers.

He leaves the room first with a borrowed transponder snail in hand. You thank the woman and make to follow after him- when her voice catches your attention.

“The two of you always come to me.” Teller speaks in such an assured tone that you cannot question her certainty. “And you will always continue to, i presume.”

“What do you mean?”

“You and the commander.” Her eyes search past your shoulder to where Ace had already disappeared out of the room. “You’re led here for different reasons, for the most part, but you’re always together. You always find each other. And he always has that love sick look on his face. In the vast expansion of my… talents… It’s the one thing I never tire of.”

“We always find each other?”

“It doesn’t matter what timeline, or where the two of you begin. You always end up right here together. You always end up looking at him with just as much adoration as you held today.”

“He and I aren’t together-“

“Ah, not in this universe.” She nods with pursed lips, which quickly turn to a bright smile. “Not yet at least.”

You’re in a daze as you step out of the room. Ace was your crewmate, your second division commander, and your best friend. You met by chance and he was more than enthusiastic to introduce you to the man that saved him as well. And you have been inseparable since.

There was something different about your relationship with Ace. You didn’t treat each other the same as you did the rest of the crew, and you were often the one Ace sought out any time he needed someone to aid him on a mission. No matter where you were, Ace protected you like his own life depended on it, and you offered him that same grace anytime you were given the chance. You held an affection for him that you refused to admit out loud.

“Everything okay?” Ace startles you from your trance. He narrows his eyes, “Did she say something to you?”

“N-no. It’s all good.” You force your smile at him.

I don’t care how, where, or when.

You always find each other. The words have played in your mind since the meeting with Teller the previous night. You and Ace have docked on a small island with seemingly no inhabitants. The striker wasn’t good for overnight travel, after all.

Ace crouches by the stack of firewood, the logs catching with a simple flick of his wrist. “Come on, it’s cold out.” He call you over with a smile.

It’s a simple gesture but your mind lingers on it longer than normal.

No matter how long it’s been,

You stare into the flames in silence, yet your thoughts are racing a million miles a second.

Ace watches you with worry furrowing his brow. Teller had said something to you. He didn’t know what she could have said to make you so distracted and he certainly didn’t know what it could be to make you lie about it. He hated that. Portgas D Ace was a man with a million secrets, but never from you. He would never lie to you. You were far too special to him.

The silence was killing him.

“What’s going on?”

His attention is focused solely on you and you are more than aware of the way heat prickles over your cold skin. You wonder how long his attention has made you react like this.

You meet his eye for just a moment before looking back to the fire. “It’s nothing.”

Ace leans over to you, placing two fingers to your jaw to force you to look at him. “What’s going on? You know you can talk to me.” You swallow hard under his gaze.

You take in a deep breath. “It’s, uhm, something Teller said to me.” Ace blows out a breath as you tell him this. He knew it.

“What did she say?”

Your eyes fall back to the fire. “Something about the timelines, ‘bout us.”

“Us?” Ace swallows hard.

“That we always find each other.” You worry one of the buttons from your jacket between your fingers. “We always end up together, even though we aren’t in this timeline. Not yet, at least.” Heat rises to your cheeks. “That’s what she said.”

Ace hums in thought. “But we are together?” Your eyes narrow at Ace and it doesn’t take him long at all to connect the dots. “Oh.”

“Yeah.” You slowly nod.

Ace fidgets with the beaded bracelet around his wrist. “And that,” His voice is low and hesitant. “That bothers you?” You’re shaking your head before you can properly think about it.

“I’ve never really,” You trail off as you consider his words. “Thought about it, I guess.”

The only thing you can hear is the flickering of the flames. Ace bites at his lip as he battles with his thoughts. He always saw himself as someone who was cursed. Someone destined to fail. A bloodline to end. But how could that be so if he ended up with you in every time line? He couldn’t think of anything he was less deserving of, and yet…

“I have.” He declares before he can consider it further. “I’ve, uh, thought about it before. A lot actually.”

The confession takes you by surprise. “You have?” You breathe out, now meeting his gaze in a way that was unwavering. Ace nods and you can make out a faint blush through the light of the fire. “I never did until,” You tip your head. “Until now. It’s like it all… makes sense.”

Ace leans in a little bit closer to envelope you in his familiar warmth. His hand moves to hold your jaw once again, but this time you don’t want to look away. Half lidded eyes flicker to your lips in a silent question.

You tip your head in confirmation.

Your lips meet in a slow and delicate kiss. It’s unfamiliar as if you were now mapping out the feel of each other just as you have mapped out countless islands. Ace pulls you in closer and a warm arm moves around you to hold you to him. You chin tips to deepen the kiss, to take more of him. And he freely gives it to you.

Neither of you seem to want to pull away, but your lungs almost start to burn. You reluctantly break the kiss, still holding each other close, noses brushing together.

A smile pulls to Ace’s lips, bright and sunny.

You’re mine.
