    Summary

    The issue with getting one’s powers analyzed and researched on was that it could easily be countered.

    When Vegapunk managed to get him out of the fight on Egghead, Borsalino awoke on a pirate ship belonging to an Emperor’s crew he had just tried to kill...and with the island long gone and no others in sight, he had no choice but to hitch a ride with the pirates.

    And, as if matters weren’t complicated enough already…

    Bonney decided to get involved.

    Summary

    "And why do you stare at me that way?"

    "I can't help but think, sir—"

    "Yes?"

    "We've met before."

    At 19, Maria fell in love with a sailor twice her age whose past haunted him. Years later, she finds herself face to face with him again, with her own past nipping at her heels. AU, chapter one begins in 1933. (This is very long and probably should have been broken into three stories.)

    Summary

    From the aftermath of the Great War to the vibrant Sixties (with a glimpse into 1995), the unforgettable story of Maria and the Captain takes on new dimensions. Two fiercely romantic and free-spirited souls forge a love that blossoms amidst historical upheaval, raising an equally romantic and free-spirited family. Think The Sound of Music intertwined with real history, the epic sweep of Judith Krantz's 'Till We Meet Again,' and a touch of my own fantasy. Prepare for laughter that warms the heart and tears that cut deep.
    Genres: historical, comedy, romance, drama, tragedy, war.
    Fic title from Iron Maiden’s song.
    I always fire my Chekhov's guns. scenes; Fic oscillates between G and M; E/M for a few tasteful GeorgxMaria you can skip. German and Italian spellings will be often preferred for authenticity. ß = ss. Heed the tags!
