NPC POV
Being the hero of the story is great and all, be what about everyone else? When the dust settles, what happens to the civilians and bystanders, the side characters and OCs? The world does not stop turning when a hero goes on a quest. What do the common people see in them?
A collection of my favorite stories detailing the lives of the mundane- all the people who don’t get stories of their own, and scenes of things that could have happened.

Summary
One week after her birthday, Mrs. Yan meets a young boy.
He’s soaked, stood right in front of the store’s small entrance, all sheepish smiles and shy excitement. He couldn’t have been more than seven years old, but his smile as he opens his dripping jacket lights up the dim convenience store.

Summary
“I don’t buy it,” Pete retorts. “Someone like you? Some cook from East Blue? You’re probably worth a couple hundred thousand bellies at best, maybe a million, if your captain’s somebody.”
Sanji tilts his head back so that it rests against the dirty wall behind him. He’s still upright, somehow, through sheer stubbornness or spite. He doesn’t look like someone who only has tonight left to live.
In fact, he looks sharp. There’s no better word for it. His expression is still as peaceable as it has been since he arrived, but watching him is like watching a knife slide out of its sheath. He is, abruptly, dangerous. A tool made for cutting.
“If you knew where I’ve been, you would be terrified of me,” he says.
