    Summary

    Naruto rarely paid the other students any mind. He was too lost in his daydreams, too busy concocting schemes that would make his teacher's nose bleed. But it was never difficult to spare a thought for Sakura. He could watch her passionately write notes for hours. Sometimes her pretty pink hair would escape its barrettes and frame her face like a portrait.

    Whenever she caught him looking, he flashed his bright, toothy smile at her. She never smiled back. Her nose would wrinkle or brow furrow, but it didn't bother him much. He still held out hope that she would return it one day - look at him with even a fraction of the appreciation she directed towards Sasuke. If he could just prove to her (and all of Konohagakure) that he was worth something - that Uzumaki Naruto was somebody - then maybe he would finally get that smile.

    The boy from the cage is grinning wide, warmth and charm beckoning her closer. Urging her to burrow the cold ridges of her history into him so she could be fulfilled and home once more. “I’m Monkey D. Luffy and I’m gonna be King of the Pirates!” He cheerfully introduces himself.

    -

    The Heart bloodline is hunted for their ability – an ability that has meant over the years they've come to be known as Seers. They're marked, with gold that pulses along their skin. It makes them easily recognisable to those that might hunt them for their capability so see into past, present and future.

    A young woman of an almost extinct bloodline, meets the man who will become King of the Pirates.

    Summary

    “I’m—I’m Goh,” he says. “Look, I don’t know what’s going on. Usually we’ve met by now. Where’s Ash?”

    If anything, Gary just looks more confused. “Yeah, okay, time to go, crazycakes.” He points to the door. “Show yourself out and I won’t even get the cops involved, capisce?”

    “Wait, Gary, please—”

    “I don’t know who this Gary person is, but I’m not him. Go home, take your meds, and… fuck, I don’t know, just—”

    “You mean you’re… not Gary Oak?” Goh asks. That doesn’t make any sense. The man in front of him looks just like him.

    Something like recognition sparks in the other man’s eye. “No. I’m Blue Oak. Now, I really think you should leave.”

    Summary

    Onii-chan? he thought. Something you call your older brother. The familiar girl tried to help him up, ushering him from where he was laying down in the cold snow in front of the doorway and inside the small home where the sickly sweet smell was stronger. The girl paled as soon as she opened the dilapidated door, but she steeled herself and guided him inside, and it was then that he saw it, the carnage that was inside of what used to be a quaint little home. Corpses of people strewn about carelessly, their blood seeping through the tatami floor— Mom, Takeo, Hanako, Shigeru, Rokuta — seemingly against his will, his knees crumpled down onto the floor, tears filling his eyes as his throat let out the most agonizing sound…

    And it all came rushing back.

    His name was Kamado Tanjirou.

    A (Mostly) Tanjirou-centric Role Reversal AU. Where Tanjirou never stops being an older brother, despite becoming a demon.

    Summary

    Elena Carter, an ordinary woman from Earth, wakes up in a world she once thought was nothing more than fiction: the vast and perilous seas of One Piece. Transmigrated by unknown means, she finds herself adrift in a universe where pirates rule the seas, and survival means more than just adapting—it means fighting for her life in ways she never imagined.
