"the trauma made you kind" fuck that. no. i am kind because i cannot allow anyone to go through what i did. i am soft because i chose to be.
Trauma made me scared, angry, and vulnerable.
I made myself kind.

Summary:
Things Zoro’s supposed to do: kill demons. Things Zoro is doing: drink tea and bicker with the cook over at Kazaguruma. Things that Zoro needs to pay attention to: the demon that's decided to roam around the city. It's going to be okay. Don't worry about it.
Characters: Sanji, Zoro, Nami, Kaku, a good part of the crew gets to say stuff, but not enough to deserve a tag

Set in the world of the Boss Luffy filler episodes from the anime, but I added demons (this is me going "pspsps" at all the monsterf*ckers, yes)
We get violence and Zoro being super thirsty. Most M-rated T-rated fic I've ever written
If he hadn't been found starving, Zoro’s first time at Kazaguruma would probably have been a tenser affair, maybe even a more violent one. Sure, the restaurant is small and welcoming, but it happens to reek of demons. As he is now, Zoro doesn't have the energy to ask questions about it, and by the time he's been fed and he isn't dying anymore, it's clear that this is a safe place. Anything with that amount of power would have already done harm if it had wanted to. He wonders how nobody else notices the demonic energy, until he remembers that he's the only one here that's trained himself for it. “Sorry about that,” the restaurant's cook says when he sees Zoro massaging his temples. “Huh?” The cook gestures at Zoro’s head. “You can sense it, right? The…” He waves a hand in the air. “Miasma? Stench? The demon thing.”

developed a real fondness lately for characters who experience a horrific act of violence and come out the other side saying "ah. I don't think I get to be me anymore. they took out the part that was me, killed it, and put something else back in its place, and now I'm whoever the hell that is." love it when someone becomes a corpse and replaces themself <3

Every single fic update there is an author trying frantically to find the right balance between a nonchalant aside of "leave a comment if you enjoyed =)" and clinging desperately to the coat tails of a random stranger, dragging along behind them on the street wailing "Please, please! I have to know what you thought! I'm desperate to talk to people about this! Ask me about the alliterative repetition! Ask me about the symbolism!"

Soulmates AU
Written for the ZoSan Club Secret Santa
There was no telling how long that blue spot had been on Zoro’s shoulder by the time Kuina noticed it, but both of them initially believed it to be a bruise. He hadn’t been anywhere near any paint and he’d landed rather hard on his back during their latest duel, there was nothing else it could be. When it kept growing—when it looked like it was spreading over Zoro’s skin—he figured he should talk to an adult. “Oh,” his sensei said. “Oh.” “What is it?” Zoro asked, craning his neck in an effort to get a better look at the bruise. Was it weird? Was his skin falling off? “This isn’t a bruise, Zoro. It’s a soulmark.”

slow burn mutual pining but the burn is emotional and the fic is pwp. they smut it up while both wanting more and thinking the other one wants to be friends with benefits. having only this much of them is torture but not having them at all would be worse. each of them dreads the day their lover falls in love with someone else. both of them are so surprised to learn they've both been in love with the other the whole time
Every Petal an Accusation by @vetoing-clocks
There is a secret garden in Xuan Zhen Palace. Feng Xin finds himself drawn to it.
The first of probably many TGCF binds, considering the sheer number of fics I added to my 'To Bind' list after reading exclusively TGCF fics for three months earlier this year. I was especially drawn to this particular fic because it has a very interesting twist on the hanahaki trope that externalizes the disease in a way that I think makes a very interesting comment on Mu Qing as a character.
As for the bind itself, I was excited to get a chance to dip into my collection of floral fonts for the typeset. I've downloaded so many of them but have had few fics where they suited. I was also especially proud of how the cover turned out: well worth the number of hours I spent burying the text in the flowers without compromising its readability. Finally, this bind includes the extremely cute fanart that @melissymo drew for the fic and kindly provided permission for me to use.
About the Bind
Text Block: 20/50 lb cream letter paper, bound as a flat back quarto
Endpapers: floral scrapbooking cardstock from my somewhat limitless stash of the stuff
Case Style: three piece bradel casebind, with the spine covered in black Wooqu bookcloth
Cover: designed in Affinity Designer using Still Life with Flowers and a Watch (Abraham Mignon, c. 1660-1679) as the base, printed onto coated text weight paper using a laser printer; foiled spine titling
