🍂 '13 🍂

But unlike the adult in this strip, Calvin’s dad actually APOLOGIZED for yelling at him when he saw how guilty his kid was:

(it's a small ship but hoping my ship manifesto + this list will be helpful. yes the list includes wips and yes you should still read them!!)

Once Burned by irrelevant (e, 8k) smoker meets ace in loguetown before either of them know who the other is, i.e. marine and pirate. this fic is literally canon to me

Smoker read the question clear in the kid’s eyes. His mouth thinned around nothing; his lack of cigar bothered him more than it should have. “This is a bad idea.”

thin red line by irrelevant (m, 23k, wip) smoker and ace keep meeting. no explicit romance but amazing characterisation for both characters + discussions of OP morality and overall my favourite fic exploring their relationship

between pirates and marines, sex isn't the real taboo. that would be friendship.

the rock by irrelevant (t, 29k, wip) ace lives but is smoker's prisoner. excellent ace characterisation + amazing angst

Ace’s body feels like it’s been beat six ways to Sunday, buried for three days, then dug up and the whole process repeated, but he gives indifference his best shot. “Up to you, Captain. This is your party.”

irreverant by tangerinedarker (5k, e) inspired by the rock. ace is smoker's prisoner + first kiss + only one bed. surprisingly really sweet with a sprinkle of angst

“You stay awake, I’ll buy us dinner,” he hears Smoker offer, then more feels than hears him come and stand next to where Ace sits, his lighter clicking somewhere above his head. Eyes still shut heavy, he leans sideways until he feels that familiar denim, the warmth of Smoker’s steady hip on his cheek, turns and nuzzles his face in like it’s his best hope for a pillow anytime in the next hour.

igniting in the tomb by mokumera (7k, e) Ace POV, development of smoker and ace's enemies-to-lovers relationship across various islands

The story of how Ace and Smoker start an affair, how things get complicated, when it ends—then, you may know the rest.

pirate is a pirate by tangerinedarker (12k, e) another fic exploring how ace and smoker's relationship develops. mild cnc, putting the brazil in one piece <3

“Portgas D. Ace,” he calls out. The red beads shift as the pirate’s head turns. “Que gato,” Portgas mutters, running an eye up Smoker, over his bare and freckled shoulder. “And here I thought I was finished with my meal.”

softer than clay by mokumera (3k, e) ace lives AU. ace loses his devil fruit powers, smoker helps him get them back. implied sexual assault, angst, happy ending

“I’m not kidding,” says Portgas. He reaches for Smoker’s hand, touches the back with his fingers. His skin is—not freezing, but it may as well have been. Compared to how hot Smoker knows he runs, he’s corpse cold.

to fight the cold by mokumera (1k, m) ace lives AU. smoker leaves the marines to save ace, short and sweet

“My brothers and I promised each other we’d live our lives exactly how we wanted,” Ace says quietly. “Without regret. I didn’t realize at the time how hard that would be.”

Don't talk before you finish your coffee by tangerinelighter (1k, t) smoker joins the straw hat crew ft relationship reveal. really love this

Where’s the HR department in the Straw Hat Pirates? And what kind of information should you keep secret from your new weird rubber teenage captain, exactly?

late night drive by tangerinedarker (1k, t) modern AU, hockey player/college student ace and sheriff smoker

Ace is pretty happy about getting a ride in Smoker’s car, and not even handcuffed in the backseat either. But he does wish they were headed back to Smoker’s place for a night of fun instead of en route to the hospital.

Devil's Paintbrush Road by tangerinelighter (1k, m, wip) western AU, cowboy ace and deputy smoker, wip but can be read as one-shot

The kid’s a sunnuva—something. Smoker won’t speak on his mother. But his job is getting harder by the day thanks to that little devil running rampant all over town.

The rivalry continues! 🏒⛸️

It's a sweet slow burn of Corvus and Tamsy sharing nice stories and secrets with each other.

Excerpt from Story:

"I suppose you'll be wanting a secret from me now so we're even?"

"No need."

Tamsy paused, mouth centimeters from his cup, the warmth from his glass still heating his soft lips.

"I shared that story because I wanted to, if anything, it was me paying you back for this kind gesture."

As he spoke he lifted his cup referencing the tea that Tamsy brought.

"Does this mean I'll get a new secret every time I visit then~"

"No."

"You're no fun."

This one was free, next time," he punctuated himself with a sip from his cup, "bring a story of your own."

"Next time?"

"Next time."

Or:

Tamsy, in a stroke of genius, decides that the perfect way to quell his boredom and interest would be to indulge in various brews of tea with none other than his boss in hopes of learning more about the mysterious man. Along the way they both learn more than each other, sharing secrets, experiences, and more~
