Summary
Earth falls apart. Skull dies five years later, hopefully for the final time. It's certainly not the end he had wanted, with a cursed collar around his throat, but it could have been worse.
He wakes up with sea water in his lungs.
What a madman's idea of paradise he's found himself in. Chaotic, disruptive, utterly deranged is this wide stretch of ocean where monsters and men abound. He wouldn't prefer it any other way.
The pirates were a surprise though. The young man in the orange hat even more so.

Summary
To understand history, understand this: Gil-galad rises to kingship during the First Age's apocalypse. Morgoth is winning, the world, ending, Beleriand's soil and waters run red with blood and stinking of iron. He appears, fully formed– autochthonous! As if he was born in the cold ashes of Nirnaeth Arnoediad as the Eru-begotten awoke at Cuiviénen– with the trappings and responsibility of leadership already upon him.
He could be anyone. It's why it works.

Summary
Coyote Starrk survives, crawling out of the sand only to drag himself into a new, longer war.
During those twelve years, the world ends. Hueco Mundo dissolves into nothingness. Seireitei breaks like a pane of glass. The living world rots. The soul throne is empty, and unprocessed souls clog the air, unable to cycle back into reality.
He gets sent back against his will. But he stands in a Seireitei the Winter War has not yet touched, and if there is one thing he has learned from Kyoraku Shunsui, it is that once you join a war you fight with everything you have until it is over.

Summary
"“The Crane Wife” is a story from Japanese folklore. I found a copy in the reserve’s gift shop among the baseball caps and bumper stickers that said GIVE A WHOOP. In the story, there is a crane who tricks a man into thinking she is a woman so she can marry him. She loves him, but knows that he will not love her if she is a crane so she spends every night plucking out all of her feathers with her beak. She hopes that he will not see what she really is: a bird who must be cared for, a bird capable of flight, a creature, with creature needs. Every morning, the crane-wife is exhausted, but she is a woman again. To keep becoming a woman is so much self-erasing work. She never sleeps. She plucks out all her feathers, one by one."
-The Crane Wife, an essay by CJ Hauser
To be a shinobi is to be an instrument of destruction first and everything else second.
The love is secondary. or rather, the love won't save them.

Summary
The World Government has fallen, Luffy is the King of Pirates and Law is laying low, waiting to see how the situation will change. He comes across two orphaned children and decides to help them out and temporarily take care of them until he can find an orphanage or someone to take them in. It turns out to be much more difficult than he expected.
“The world is full of orphans. That’s not your fault,” Penguin pointed out.
“Maybe not,” Law said. “But he looks like me.”
Penguin blinked. “The boy? He looks nothing like you.”
“You didn’t know me before I met Cora,” Law said, and Penguin lowered his head, conceding the point.- Language:

Summary
Five times SecUnit's humans saw that it loved ART and one time Iris saw it too.
---
Or,
It is common knowledge that Perihelion is an obsessive psychopath when it comes to being right, and that it is similarly obsessive over producing high-quality empirical evidence to vindicate itself (whether anyone else even cares that much or not).
It is not common knowledge that its sister has, unfortunately, also picked up this habit.
So when SecUnit disagrees with Iris over something and watches her turn around and leave without argument, it has no idea what is coming.
Well, kind of.

Summary
Seth side-eyed Iris, then snorted a laugh when she made a talking motion with her hand. “Uh huh.”
« Iris, I saw that. My point is, it is frankly insulting that you immediately assume I did something bad— »
“Peri broke protocol on its last cargo run,” Iris interrupted loudly.
--
Or, Seth finds out that the surprises never end when your kid is a giant homicidal starship.
