Tsukiko got reunited with her brother Shugo. The meeting spurred more questions than it answered and now apparently she needs to figure out her own memories... that she didn't really live but her Detective Conan World -counterpart Hoshi apparently lived. And on the side the canon plot still goes on. SI-OC, Self-Insert, Sequel to Dream or Not.

Ace was supposed to feel proud and delighted when he saw his siblings wanted posters. Then why was he feeling anger and dread. Oh yes, because Luffy was 15 and Marcy was 16. AU 2 YEARS before the canon, OC. beta'd partly now.

Ace is a human who's lonely, and calls for the devil/demon, and Marco shows up to Ace's call. Ace asks Marco, the Prince of Hell to be his friend and sell his soul for that, Marco not thinking much of it. They start to be together as that's the deal and Ace grows on Marco. When an accident happens and Ace dies early, Marco realizes he likes Ace a lot and takes Ace to hell with him

It always ends the same. Oyaji dies. His crew falls apart. Ace himself dies too. During Marineford, before, or after. It doesn't matter what he does. If he joins they die for him. This time he will make it different. When they ask him to join them he'll say no and leave. Simple right? As if. Guess he'll have to convince them he's not worth their lives. Time travelling/looping Ace

Featuring one-shots. Family, he told himself, were those you hold dear to your heart, people you long for when alone, and the ones you think of in your brightest or darkest moments. You don't become family just because you are labelled as one. For Ace, taking his place as Whitebeard's son meant accepting a whole lot of siblings too. It was his greatest challenge yet.

Marco nods. "Having had the Scrawl means that if Ace is sick, he'll be covered in ink till he's better, yoi. It's all stuff people will have said about him to his face, isn't it?" (Now with small ASL and amnesia!Sabo!)

Forced into giving up the crew he had pridefully built from scratch, Ace struggles to accept a place in Whitebeard's crew. Brothers? Sisters? A father? It tears him apart slowly at how the Whitebeard "family" appears to be. It's everything he wants and everything he doesn't.

Men only call each other brother when they've called each other a lot of other things first. Ace & Whitebeard Pirates-centric. Mostly Ace, Thatch, and Marco. No pairings, cutesy. Rated for lang.

Thatch is worried, and that means Marco is being annoyed. So he'd better find that little freeloading brat before he does something he shouldn't.
