Tailored Like a Fine Suit by PastaDad

Summary
'Tailored Like a Fine Suit' - as in, everything in its place and not a stitch out of line... lest anyone with ill intent find a means through which to pick you apart.
_____
Some not-necessarily chronologically ordered chapters/oneshots where I give Sanji some very specific transmasc nb and neurodivergent experiences and feelings that are a mix of sad, light-hearted, silly or encouraging. 'Cause more often than not, internal gender feelings can be irrational and even funny, or contradictory! The same with neurodivergent day-to-day thoughts and feelings. I love that! These all exist in one canon-compliant (I think? Define canon??) continuum/universe. The thru-line is that I'm experimenting portraying character growth in relationships and self image!

Summary
Nicholas worships (rails) at the altar (Vash's insides).
[Heavy on the religious imagery, you can decide whether this is your regular besotted religious man associating his partner with the sacred - or you can read it as utter fanaticism, if you'd rather get a little whacky with it.]

Summary
Meryl starts connecting the dots during a long drive, that Vash is impressively hopeless at valuing his own wellbeing quite as much as he should. Mayhaps it is time to ""encourage"" (enforce) some self care and rest...
Meryl and Wolfwood use teamwork and some (benevolent) trickery to get Vash to accept a lil bit of TLC!
Written in third person Meryl POV. It's mashwood hours!
*NOTE: LONG TEMPORARY HIATUS (SORRY!!)

Dan One-of-the-Creators-of-A81 Dan (not the in-verse Dan) mentioned in an Out Of Universe ep that he reckons that in-verse Dan (with his 'tape cyborg' parts) would not experience any fuss on the NYC underground/subway for his metal/tape/radio parts. Which I hadn't even considered prior to that ep, but I just love that thought. So here's a fairly brief exploration of that.

Simon died. Eaten and consumed by the Blood Eel. Not until he wakes up in a place called Erid where sentient rocks live and a guy who can’t seem to wear his glasses the right way.
OR
Simon gets thrown into Project Hail Mary because he deserves to be taken care of after the ending in Iron Lung. (basically, in other words. Simon and Grace act stupid, made everyone in Erid their spectators of their stupidity)

Summary
Ryland looked down at his clipboard, where he had written a reasonable script, supplied earlier that day by Adrian. Unfortunately, the moment his eyes landed on the words, his brain supplied only terrible ways to say them.
He chose the worst one.
“I need flowers with prominent reproductive structures.”
The man went completely still.
Ryland could feel his soul attempting to leave his body.
“For a plant anatomy lab,” he added quickly. “For my students. Middle school students. Not–” He cut himself off, because there was simply no end to that sentence that would improve his situation. Instead, he just weakly smiled, and added “Science.”
-:-:-
Ryland Grace is brilliant with biology, awkward with adults, and far too invested in giving his students the lessons they deserve. Simon Fleischer is a guarded florist who trusts plants more than people and has no interest in being needed by anyone again. But when a forgotten school lab brings Ryland into Root & Thorn, their lives begin to tangle in quiet, unexpected ways – through flowers, roots, and the terrifying possibility of being cared for properly.

Summary
Ryland hadn't realized Simon's breathing had grown so heavy.
"Do you know what the three different types of rocks are?" He asks before he can think about the words coming out of his mouth.
"...do I fucking what?"
--
Or, no one ever said distraction duty was Ryland's particular skill set, but he makes due
