    Summary

    The entire Z team wakes up unknowing of their surroundings, with no memory of how they got there. When Robert is taken to an interrogation room, he finds his team trapped behind the glass, except Herm. One failed genetic experiment to attempt to turn Herm into a hybrid later, Herm is thrown into the room with Robert, in chains and a muzzle, not processing a thing except for the hindbrain animal instincts urging him to maul, claim, bite.

    It’s up to Robert to take care of his partner and try to bring him back, even if it means letting Herm take what he wants in front of the Z team.

    Established relationship Watermech.

    (Yes im serious) (Yes I started punching the air when i realized this copy pasta meme is essentially what this fic is about)

    Summary

    He can't really say it when Robert's awake. It’s this… mental block he has. He’s too bad at verbalizing his emotions. Locks up. He’s said it—six times, he thinks?—while Robert was conscious. Sonar was, of course, drunk-and-or-high each time.

    It’s—well, Robert doesn’t seem too upset about it so far. He seems to understand Sonar’s whole thing.

    -

    Or: Sonar has problems telling Robert that he loves him, so he keeps showing it instead. A few moments of domestic bliss during Victor & Robert's relationship.

    Summary

    About a decade ago now, Sanji had started joking with their friends that while he himself was aging like a fine wine, Zoro was aging like milk, or perhaps a head of cabbage someone had left to wilt in the sun.

    In reality Sanji thought perhaps a nice 27 year brandy was a more apt comparison; just as intoxicating and desirable, but dark and robust, complex on the palette and smooth on the finish, and still just as strong as the day it was bottled.

    Summary

    When facing a strange villain that feeds off fear, that pulls the trauma from people’s throats like a horsehair worm from a wriggling mantis, Robert thinks it’s going to be routine, that Flambae will deal with him and get some free therapy as a bonus, that he’s safe behind his desk where the villain called Archivist won’t even think about him.

    He’s wrong.
