parallel between olvia and dragon choosing to abandon their children to fight for a bigger cause, thinking their children would be better off shielded from the dangers of the wars they're waging on the world government, but ultimately failing to prevent their children from developing abandonment issues and having traumatic childhood because of the abuse and neglect done by their foster parents.
and the contrast with bellemere choosing to raise orphans after losing a battle and her will to live as a marine, thinking those orphans would be better off raised with love even if she was poor and didn't know the first thing about parenting, but ultimately still failing to prevent her children from developing hyperindependence and having traumatic childhood because her love alone wasn't enough to protect them from tyrannical pirates and the corrupt marines that enabled them.
the fact that corrupt government institutions find a way to hurt children, regardless of whether their parents choose to fight those injustices or not.

-You smiled brightly, looking down at all the handmade cards you had been working so hard on for the past few days.
-It was Sanji who told you about this holiday, Mother’s Day, and what people usually do.
-You had so many mothers now, ones that had adopted you over the past couple of years during your journey, and you wanted to celebrate all of them!!
-Sanji was willing to help, enjoying your enthusiasm, and since the ship was docked at an island for a few days, he took you out to get the supplies for your gifts.
-You ran to Sanji with the completed cards, and he kneeled, “Have you finished?” you nodded, beaming brightly, “I just finished!”
-He ruffled your hair gently, giving you a grin, “Well then, let’s get to the post office!” you nodded and grabbed your hat, disguising yourself as he took you to the post office to mail out the ones you needed to mail out so they would arrive in time along with the gift Sanji helped you pick out, carnations.
-You kept only one card, meant for Robin, as you were going to give it to her personally. You couldn’t wait for Mother’s Day!!
-Two days later, you snuck out of your room, sneaking to the kitchen where Sanji was waiting for you, both of you holding your index fingers to your mouths, trying to be sneaky as you helped Sanji make pancakes and coffee for Robin.
-Nami knew of the plan, and was in charge of keeping Robin in bed, which was amusing, as Nami was clinging to Robin, telling her to cuddle her some more, which Robin thought was cute.
-When you came in, holding the tray carefully, trying not to spill anything, with Sanji peeking in, making sure you were all right, Robin’s eyes went wide as you beamed, “Happy Mother’s Day mama!”
-Nami held her hands to her mouth, trying not to cry, thinking you were adorable as Robin melted as you handed her the tray. She smiled, seeing the pancakes, coffee, the handmade card, and the carnation.
-Before she ate anything, Robin picked you up, hugging you close, pressing a kiss to your temple, “I love it Y/N. Thank you so much!” you smiled up at her, hugging her close, “I love you mama!”
-There was a crash as Nami and Sanji both collapsed to the ground, overcome with cuteness.
Elsewhere
-Bell-Mere couldn’t help but smile, looking down at the card she got from you and the one she got from Nami, and one from Nojiko, three carnations as well, as she beamed, seeing how much her girl’s appreciated her.
-Kureha chuckled softly, seeing your card, reading over it that even though you saw her as a grandmother, you wanted to celebrate her on Mother’s Day, twirling the carnation around her fingers, thinking you were sweet.
-Otohime was ugly crying, holding the various presents and cards from her children, you included, “My children are all so sweet!!” her children who were present, including Shirahoshi, were trying to calm her down, but she was just so happy!
-Scarlet couldn’t help but smile, reading the card with Violet and Rebecca, who were reading over her shoulder, thinking that you were adorable for sending a card wishing her a happy Mother’s Day. She held the carnation from you and Rebecca, smiling softly, happy.
-Sora beamed down at the card you had sent her, Reiju and Zeff reading it over her shoulder, seeing how thoughtful you were, sending her a Mother’s Day card. She smiled warmly, looking at Sanji’s card next, complete with another carnation, matching your own. She was so grateful to have such thoughtful children as Reiju surprised her with a carnation of her own.
Happy Mother’s Day to everyone who is a mother, either to a child or a fur baby!!
Sadly, I did not write much this year. It was an incredibly busy year, and I had to drop out of several projects as a result—to say nothing of my ongoing fics. TBH, I was completely burned out by the end of the year. So, my roundup this year will be pretty thin. I ended up writing a whopping 45,462 words, about a third of what I wrote last year.
Here is a recap of my writing for the year:
ONE-SHOTS
GEN
"Objects in Space" (PG-13 | 3,491 words): Trafalgar Law runs the Heart Clinic, an underground clinic that will treat anyone who can find it, in the lawless regions of space. After an encounter with some Federation soldiers, however, Law comes on the radar of a certain king who wants his protege back and places a bounty on his head, putting the Heart Clinic in the crosshairs of bounty hunters.
Written for the Sailing the Stars zine
"Unfinished Business" (PG-13 | 4,441 words): When Bell-mère wakes up after her confrontation with Arlong and no one can see or hear her, it doesn't take long for her to realize she's a ghost. Her unfinished business? Making sure her girls are all right. She watches them grow up into strong, capable women and couldn't be prouder.
When a walking, talking skeleton joins Nami's crew, though, Bell-mère finds herself seen for the first time since her death.
Written for Tangerine Dreams: A Bell-mère Fanzine
"A Wilderness of Water" (PG-13 | 3,013 words): The young Heart Pirates, as they are making their name in the North Blue, hear rumors about a mythical treasure at the bottom of the sea. No one has ever been able to claim it—but no one has had a submarine.
The cocky young crew goes in search of the treasure and takes the ship deeper than they've ever gone before.
Written for Wonders of the Blue: An OP Oceans Zine
Written for the Scarlet Letter: A One Piece Anthology Zine
"He Touched Me (So I Live to Know)" (ZoLaw | Mature | 3,937 words): In the course of their alliance, Zoro has come to realize something about Law: the man is touch-starved. And the longer the alliance goes on, the more Zoro wants to be the one to touch him in the way he deserves.
Or, five times Zoro thinks about touching Law, and one time he does.
Written for the Valentine at the Cottage eventÂ
"The Night Before" (KidLaw | Explicit | 1,924 words): The night before the raid on Onigashima, Law can't sleep and goes for a walk. He runs into Eustass Kid, and sparks fly.
Or, five times, sparks fly between Nami and Vivi, and one time they don’t hold back.
Written for the One Piece Secret Santa gift exchange

“The Night Is Darkening Round Me” (Non-con Doflaw, Eventual Lawlu | Mature | 10/? | 4,133 words written in 2025): After Law purchases a house sight unseen, he starts experiencing things he can’t explain: footsteps when he’s alone, a coffee mug falling from the middle of the counter, flickering lights with no electrical issues. He’s a skeptic, but his friends convince him to call in a group of paranormal investigators: the Straw Hat Paranormal Group.
Of course, nothing is ever what it seems, and Law is haunted by more than just spirits in his new house.

Rosi was well versed in which places on the base were the best to cry in uninterrupted. There was a particular stretch of wall with a gap at the base big enough to squeeze through that was private and afforded a view of the sun setting over the ocean.
He came there often.
Today was the first time he’d found someone else.
