Summary
When they’re on the forecastle, with the helm just behind them and the figurehead casting them further in shadow, Usopp calls, “Raise the sails!”
Luffy’s gasp next to his ear is the best part of his entire day.
The sails unfold in a great rolling crash of canvas. Even the striped gaff swings out, catching the wind. The whole sloop gives a powerful lurch as if she’s eager to sprint out of port on the back of whatever gale blows along next.
And painted on the foresail, bold and bright and proud, is a grinning Jolly Roger in a yellow straw hat.
“That’s mine,” Luffy whispers, hushed and awed.
“Told you so,” Usopp says smugly.

Summary
Tamsy wakes up alone on a strange beach, in a strange place, unlike anywhere he has ever been.
He meets familiar people to whom he is completely foreign.
He has been completely removed from his power, his plans, and any sense of forward movement he had been experiencing not even last week. Even worse, he's being treated as a slightly unsettling presence.
He'll have to just cope with it, won't he?

Summary
**new chapter 3**
Zanka has failures and hurts stacked up high, like poorly-filled crates in constant disarray he just can't line up right. It's disappointing. He's disappointing. But eventually, maybe he won't be, if he keeps trying.
If trying's all he can do.
