Draco works in a bakery. In the back, after it’s closed, cleaning. It’s hard work. He doesn't mind it.

Draco works in a bakery. The same one he’s been working for ages, in the back, except now he works with dough and crème pât. It’s early mornings and long shifts.

Draco works in a bakery. He’s the first one in, unlocking the door every morning. He flicks the lightswitch, turns on the coffee machine. The sign on the door has his name.

Draco works in a bakery, even though he doesn’t have to. The most popular item on the menu, the most ridiculous thing he’s come up with, is sold out every single day. People queue for it in all his locations. He has made his first million galleons ages ago, yet he still comes to work and puts an apron on.

Draco doesn’t work in a bakery anymore because his grandkids begged him to take it easy for once. He bakes at home a lot though, like this morning, a batch of gingerbread cookies; his favourite thing to make, the one that’s made his bakeries famous. He waits for them to cool, coffee cup warming his hands. He pipes on golden round glasses carefully, adds the sharp edges of a lighting bolt. His husband will laugh and shake his head when he comes downstairs.

Pushing limits with you ❦

gojo satoru x reader

you’re pulled out of your dreamworld by long fingers at your forehead. they brush away a few flyaway strands of your hair before gently rubbing over your brow bone. when you attempt to peel your eyes open, you can already tell it’s too early.

it’s still dark, the sun not having graced your small room with its presence yet. but even through your sleepy gaze you can make out the brightness of satoru’s eyes. they’re uncharacteristically soft, crinkling a little as they notice you stirring from slumber. they narrow with amusement as you let out an irritated groan.

“satoru…it’s too early.”

you say his name with emphasis, and he chuckles quietly.

“i know i know. go back to sleep, pretty thing.”

your curiosity heightens, and you squint as you attempt to look at him. he looks like your boyfriend alright, with his snowy white hair, bright cerulean eyes, and lopsided smile. but he also looks familiar in a way that is oddly unfamiliar. the tight black shirt he has on accentuates his built physique, and the baggy pants tied loosely around his slim waist — it’s different.

for a second you think you see a faint scar running across his lips, but it’s gone in an instant. you’ll choose to blame it on your sleep addled brain.

“where are you going?” you mumble to him, reaching your hand out to take his own. his long fingers squeeze yours reassuringly.

“gotta go take care of something real quick.” he answers, the smile still present in his voice.

“always working.” you pout, pulling the blankets closer to your chin. “i only just got you back. you owe me for all that missed time, so don’t stay away for too long.”

satoru blinks, his smile gone before he reaches down and cups your face in his two large hands. he presses a chaste kiss to your forehead before leaning further down and planting one on your lips. there is no barrier between the two of you - no infinity, and he relishes in it for a second longer.

“okay sweetheart, after i come back from this i’m all yours, yeah?” he sighs, smile reappearing like it never left, though this time it is much more subdued. his fingers tremble against your skin for a second, but then you laugh and he’s back to normal.

“good.” you grin, eyes fluttering shut again. “as it should be.”

the warmth of the cocoon you’ve made is all too inviting, and you don’t have anything against falling into it. the darkness of the room and the allure of the dreamworld you were in just a few minutes ago is all too powerful. you’re just about dozing off again when satoru speaks up once more.

“i love you, sweets.” he says. there’s an odd tone to his voice now, almost somber but not quite. you’re too absorbed in sleep to really notice, but you hear him, and an easy little smile graces your face.

“mmh, love you too, ‘toru. come home soon, okay?”

your words are squished into the pillow, and satoru only smiles down at you. once more he reaches down to drag his fingers over your cheek, before pulling away. he swallows thickly, before nodding his head.

“alright baby. i’ll come back to you soon. wait for me, yeah?”

a/n: bc after today, we all needed this....

Buick Flamingo Show Car, 1961. One of Buick's entries in the final GM Motorama was a heavily accessorised Electra 225 Convertible. Non-standard items included pearlescent pink finish, a custom interior featuring two-tone upholstery in pink leather contrasted with cranberry brocade and a pivoting passenger seat, which could turn through 180º to face the rear passengers.

Incidentally, 受け継がれる意志 and 人の夢 are also Chapter Titles that have been used previously. They are, respectively, Chapter 145, Hiruluk's death and his famous last words regarding when does someone truly die; and Chapter 225, featuring the tavern scene where Luffy and Zoro are beaten up by Belammy and kicked out, alongside Blackbeard's declaration that people's dreams never die

OH THAT'S A GOOD POINT! i didn't think about that! they're even in the same order as roger's quote!

so, the three 'things that cannot be stopped, so long as people seek freedom,' according to roger, are:

inherited will,

people's dreams,

and the upheaval of the ages.

What is Blackbeard?

We've had hints across One Piece that something is Not Normal about Marshal D. "Blackbeard" Teach.

He has incredible stamina where it's said that he's NEVER SLEPT ONCE.

And being able to wield two Devil Fruits, which would normally kill someone.

But I think the answer could be found here, in Jaya...

This happens right after the Orange Town Trio get the Uplifting Speech from Blackbeard. We are initially led to believe that Luffy and Zoro have somehow sensed the connection between Teach and the other Blackbeards lurking around Mock Town.

But what if this is the Big Secret to Blackbeard's Power?

"Twice as much fun"

"Two Devil Fruit powers"

"More than one"
