"Rings, and other Middle Earth things."

I can't get over the fact that when Doflamingo was monologuing in the tunnels at Law it was his BBL talking all that shit about Law being a coward and not actually him

Okay. Courtland AU (or courtandgentry triplets I just need to figure out where to stuff Colt) where the explosion happens sooner, so Grace gets three days instead of a few hours. By the end of day three despite everything Stratt has said and done it's clear that Grace isn't going to go, so Stratt tells Grace he's going and releases a press statement to the media saying that Grace has volunteered for the mission. However. Stratt does not immediately send Grace off to solitary confinement because she gives him one more chance to volunteer of his own free will and join her at the press conference. In a fit of desperation Grace uses the time to contact his estranged brother Court (bonus points if Grace actual has joined Stratt on air and pulls a Peeta Mellark) and asks him to save him. Court subsequently comes out if hiding and tries break Grace out, gets caught, arrested, and charged with high treason against every government ever for terrorist actions against an internationally sponsored mission to save humanity and trying to kidnap a key figure of the Hail Mary's crew. Something something Court is ultimately charged crimes against humanity itself and sentenced to death. Stratt offers Court a pardon/amnesty/stay of execution the condition that Grace willingly volunteers for the mission, Grace asks to see Court. Court tells him it's fine, to refuse to go on the mission, that Court's life isn't worth Grace's, and asks Grace to take care of Claire for him. Which is the straw that breaks the camel's back. Grace volunteers.
