Summary
He glanced at the face-down unfinished letter on his desk.
He packed it along with his notes, and a handful of blank sheets of paper.
He left for Dragonspine early the next morning, and decided, not without some great amount of deliberation, that should he be given another weeklong break, he would not be opposed to going to Liyue again.
Or,
Albedo and Xiao had an agreement. A vague one, yes, but one nonetheless—
Albedo is henceforth allowed, nay, perhaps if he were to put a stronger word to it, even encouraged to send one Yaksha of Liyue letters. Correspondence. Words from one incredibly busy person to another, just for the sake of staying in touch from a nation and a half away, should he wish to, in the endeavor of getting to know the other better.
He did.
A hand offered without any expectation. This is, at least, what he has been telling himself.

Summary
Shadow finally turned to him with a questioning eyebrow, defensive. “What?” They were allies now, sure, but their friendship was still tentative at best.
“Shadow, are you… Shorter than me?” Sonic asked.
Shadow blinked, unprepared for the question, and then blinked again.“What.” He repeated.
Wherein Shadow the Hedghog is getting left behind in every facet but the ones that actually matter, and he can't let that slide.

A Case Study In Human (or otherwise) Relations by t_mbourine

Summary
The man cut himself off as his eyes landed on Albedo. Although he had been the perfect picture of honed ferocity in battle only minutes prior from what little he could witness from afar (and even less so from the peak of the mountain the woman had taken him to) the young man now looked far more haggard than anything, leaning heavily on his spear for support, a dark aura emanating from him like a miasma. Albedo recalled both what he had read in preparation for this trip as well as what knowledge the Traveler had imparted to him, about the adepti of Liyue, and the lone surviving Yaksha that was duty bound to protect the nation from the festering remains of dead gods. The Conqueror of Demons, raised the gloved hand that was not already occupied with keeping himself from falling over from exhaustion, and pointed at Albedo's direction where he stood behind who he could only assume was another adeptus. “That is not a human,” he said.
Albedo distantly felt himself frown. Alright. Rude— although, he supposed, not entirely wrong.
or
Albedo passes the threshold of the realm of the adepti. All this serves to do is facilitate a meeting - one which Cloud Retainer is all too willing to nudge into a tentative friendship.

Summary
It has been said before that people are a mosaic of all the people and things that one has ever loved, whether this be one’s families, friends, lovers, or the lands one hails from. Link once loved Hyrule, and his love for his kingdom and its people shaped every aspect of how he led his life, a love that he has since then, a hundred years after falling in battle, forgotten.
What then, is what pushes him to risk it all for a land who he doesn’t remember, and who has long since forgotten him?

Summary
“Marimo,” Sanji greets, his voice raspy from disuse. “I thought you were on watch tonight.”
“I am.” Zoro seems too hesitate for a moment, as if deciding his words carefully. “I heard movement and came down to see what it was.”
Sanji raises an eyebrow, lifting up the blanket that is definitely the one they keep up in the crows nest, the familiar bright red of its wool dulled in the dark. “So this is meant to be a weapon then?”
Or, five nights they talked, and the one night they confessed.

Summary
In the barely legible scrawl that he recognized as belonging to their captain, marred by a couple of ink stains, were the words, Good for 1 Free Snack (from Sanji).
“Eh?” Sanji’s brows furrowed as he read it over again just to make sure he was reading it right, “What the shit does this mean?”
“It is what it says,” Zoro’s grin sharpened, “It's good for one free snack from you.”
Sanji scoffed, “Oh so now I'm at your beck and call because of some shitty paper?”

Summary
“Zoro-,” Sanji prompts, sliding a full plate of eggs and two ham steaks onto the island counter. There’s a drizzle of demi glace across the fluffy scramble, while the golden sear on the steaks is still sizzling.
The swordsman tilts his head back from the table, a sleepy grin on his features as he thumbs towards Nami’s plate, “You won’t deliver it?”
“Get it yourself, Moss,” Sanji retorts, wiping the excess crumbs from his skillet in preparation for the next meal.
Zoro pins him with a petulant scowl, “but I thought you loved me?”
Sanji nearly flips the whole skillet, his thumb barely keeping the handle from upending as he jolts. “I- what?”
“Last night,” Zoro grins, pillowing his fist in his cheek, “when you were drunk off your ass. You said you loved me.”
Nami cuts a delighted gasp off with her own palm. There’s an aborted cough from Jinbei.
Good fucking God.°❅⋆.ೃ❆࿔*:･

Summary
“Now, for our swordsman…” Sanji sighs. “Where do I even start?”
“Look, I already talked to Roronoa.” Franky cocks his head and flips back a few pages in his notebook. “He just wanted a rack for his swords and a booze stash.”
Sanji chews around the filter of his cigarette. “Franky how big is this ship gonna be?”
“Picture a galleon.”
“Shit,” Sanji leans over to peer at the notebook. “How much room do you have on that page? Okay good- So first and foremost I need you to put down that Zoro is a dumbass.”
“...Right.”☀︎☀︎☀︎
