OPLA Zosan Fics (P2)
Worse Fates by 9_of_Clubs
“Get out.” Zoro tries to snarl, but his voice trembles.
“Get out.” Sanji chortles, above him. Dark humor laces through the words, laughing but laugh-less, and worry drenches into them, doesn’t bother to disguise itself. “Can you believe this guy?” He asks the ceiling.
---
Or, often, pain gets worse at night. Or, can there ever be enough wound tending, really? Or, I read about Sanji's other backstory and couldn't resist a little kiss of angst. Another little coda to the OPLA finale.
Word Count: 1,763 - Hurt/Comfort, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Light Angst, Wound Tending, Touch Starved, OPLA
orange peels and sips of gin by caddigan
"So it’s no surprise that Luffy eventually comes up with the idea of a crew bonding activity- truth or dare. Zoro manages to get drinks on the agenda as well, so now all five crew members lay spread out beneath the deck in the mess hall, lights dim and conversation raucous."
truth or dare is, in hindsight, a horrible idea.
Word Count: 4,003 - Fluff, Team As a Family, Truth or Dare, Bickering, OPLA
Not Special by socksock **accounts only
The Strawhats are a group of huggers. And Zoro's fine with it. Except when it's the waiter.
Word Count: 9,843 - Idiots to Lovers, Flirting, OPLA, Mature
You'll whisper lies to me (and one of them will be true) by Anonymous
Sanji introduces Zoro to Two Truths and a Lie. He only ever plays with Zoro, and all his lies are shit.
(Alternatively: Sanji subjects himself to the mortifying ordeal of being known by Zoro. He does everything in his power to ensure Zoro doesn't realize that's what's happening.)
Word Count: 5,277 - Drinking Games, Miscommunication, Getting to Know Each Other, OPLA
lovefool by olgaphobia
“You're trying to distract me,” Zoro says.
Sanji hums, drops his head onto Zoro's shoulder, and feels his own pain, feels Zoro's intake of breath. Sits there, kinda sleepy now, Usopp making snuffling noises horizonal on the other side of the table, and Zoro very warm under his cheek. Maybe he is too drunk, because his eyes are closing and his breathing is evening out, and the hurt isn't that much, anymore, can barely feel it at all.
“You little shit,” Zoro says eventually.
Sanji grins to himself, says more to Zoro’s neck, “You think?"
/ / /
The many loves of Sanji's life.
Alternatively: Of course he's fucking with him.
Word Count: 9,110 - Getting Together, Idiots in Love, Character Study, Food Metaphors, OPLA
Understanding by kairiSparda
Zoro still recovering from his injury doesn't really understand the Waiter from the Baratie.
Sanji the only one with some experience in injury treatment feels the need to help him recover, after all he can't leave his dear captain without his moss for brains first mate.
Word Count: 3,350 - Injury Recovery, Pre-Relationship, Character Study, OPLA

fics about tony's aging
rough enough for love by @silkspectred
The first time they had sex was right after their first kiss. Steve dropped to his knees and then Tony reciprocated after making Steve lie down on the bed. The second time it was Steve that initiated it, slow handjobs under the hot spray of the shower, and Tony looked surprised by it. Like it was weird that Steve wanted it. Wanted him.
No Better Version of Me by talesofsuspense
When Tony announces his retirement publicly, he’s not ashamed to admit he cries.
It Will Be This, Always by @pineapplebread
Steve has started to notice recently that Tony shies away from his reflection, and finds him cataloging and criticizing his scars and greying hair. Steve finds it unacceptable that Tony sees himself as anything but beautiful and perfect.
Sixty by @sibmakesart
Tony's sixtieth birthday is coming.
will you still want me (when i'm nothing new) by meidui
It's the night of their wedding rehearsal dinner and Tony doesn't love his aging. Steve does.
Mitigation of the Mildly Miserable by @deervsheadlights
Tony wakes up to the realization that not only is he getting old, but somewhere along the way, he has also put on a noteworthy amount of chub.
Iron Man has a pouch. Wow.
A Love's Work by PGHumfort
“You’re too patient with me.” Tony replied, quietly resigned.
There had been a difficult time in Tony’s 60s, after some tabloid had published a series of pictures, gathered over the course of a few months, and titled it ’15 times Tony Stark looked like his husband’s dad’. Tony had sunken into a feverish spiral, searching for a ‘cure’ for aging while simultaneously trying to convince Steve to divorce him, because he was only going to get older.
It had taken time and long nights of talking and lovemaking to bring his husband back into the moment with him. Somehow, Tony had forgotten that Steve meant the ‘until death do us part’ portion of their vows.
four footprints (side by side) by @ladymacbethsarmy
Tony laughs mirthlessly, “I always thought I’d die as Iron Man,” he says, and it’s nothing Steve doesn’t know because Tony never held back, never hesitated back then. His eyes always said huh, maybe next time. “I didn’t think I’d make it to my sixties. And now I’m sixty two and I have no idea what awaits me.”
“A very long vacation?” Steve offers weakly, and is surprised when Tony laughs.
Silver Fox by @arukou-arukou
Howard's motto was "Stark men are made of iron." Tony's is "Never let 'em see you bleed."

I can't fight this feeling anymore
For (late) @sanusoweek || Day 7: Reunion (posting it late but posting it nevertheless!)
Relationship: Sanji/Usopp
Rating: General Audiences
Tags: Post-Enies Lobby Arc / Sanji-centric / Pining Sanji / Fluff / Reunions / Light Angst / Mutual Pining / Not Actually Unrequited Love / Teen Crush (Tagging as such bc this one gives awkward teenagers so much) / Awkward Crush / Internalized Homophobia / Nosebleed / Religious Conflict (Kind of??? Sanji's POV should be studied)
Words: 5,038
Summary:
Sanji needs to get his shit together. He knows he should. He is being childish.
Maybe Sanji is just young. And stupid. And he is a teenager. And being nineteen makes him want and want and want things he should not crave or long for. Like guys. Like Usopp. So it will go away. He tells himself it will, with time. The boiling pot will stop burning and the air will come back to his lungs without needing to have Usopp near.
He is back, though.
And Sanji can breathe. Just not properly. Never properly when he is near enough to cut his breath away. But he can breathe.
He has missed Usopp so much that his body reacts instinctively.
Because Usopp is easy to love. Easy to miss. Easy to want. Easy to hold. So, so easy to hold, it seems.
Read on Ao3
More of my works!!
This fanfic was inspired by @the-orion-inexpirience's art for day 7!!
I tried to write a time travel thing but my brain just couldn't work??? Like at all?? And then I saw this masterpiece and the inspiration hit me so hard in the face I had to start writing!!!! So thank you Orion for this <333

thank you for sharing!!

fic: can't believe it's not love
zoro/sanji, +3k words, rated m
“Oh, I could take you,” Zoro says, still sounding just as venomous.
Usopp stares off into the void, trying to keep up with what the hell is going on. He must have misheard, misunderstood something, somewhere. They’re still talking about fighting, right?
Right?
or: Usopp just wanted to grab some snacks from the kitchen. Overhearing Zoro and Sanji wasn't part of the plan.

Ok but the straw hats staying at a Japanese style inn and Sanji doesn’t know how to properly put on the yukata so Zoro instinctually goes to help him- and has the shitty cook’s waist always been so slim? He unconsciously goes to wrap his hands around it and Sanji kicks him through the sliding door- and from his vantage point on the ground he has no regrets because Sanji’s leg in his high kick fully pokes out from the Yukata like a high slit dress but it would look even better wrapped around his waist-
From then on Sanji gets so irritated because why’s the mosshead on his ass about proper yukata wearing when he wears it with his tits out 24/7 - and goddamn it now he can’t stop looking and if they have to go to the onsen together he just might die of blood loss and why is Zoro looking at him like that-

Do you have a list of favorite zosan fics? Sorry if someone's asked this before x.x
Hooo boy, this is going to be challenging because there's simply a lot of fics that I like and it's kind of all over the place depending on my mood, but I'm going to make a general list of some of my favorites and a short summary of why I like them.
This is going to be a little long so I'm going to put them under read more!
Sketches of Life (and Love) by Fledgling — An exploration of a headcanon where Sanji likes to draw in his free time. This fic always leaves me with a warm feeling every time I read it because how endearingly sweet it is. It's basically a domestic fluff story about both ZoSan and the Strawhats crew in general.
green with envy blues by adietxt — A cute fic about Zoro being jealous. Jealous!Zoro has been one of those tropes that make me screech like a feral animal every time I come across it and this fic does exactly that. It's pretty short and simple but it captures the characters very well. It's set during pre-timeskip which makes it even better to me because pre-TS Zoro possesses that boyish quality that post-TS Zoro doesn’t necessarily have anymore.
Old Men Blues by postmoderne — Quoting directly from the fic's summary, “Sanji and Zoro: two ancient fucks (in love).” because this is exactly that, a story about old men ZoSan. Old Zoro and old Sanji are both still as stubborn as ever and it's endearing.
Meet me under the orange tree by candelina — A canon divergence AU where Zoro and Sanji met as kids, as Zeff opened up Baratie in Zoro's hometown. It's an adorable and heartwarming story of little Zoro and little Sanji's friendship. There's also a part two which is also worth reading.
Other fics from candelina: The whole world will know, another fic about old men ZoSan, this one involves Zoro deliberately showing himself to the Marines for god knows what. It's sweet, it's beautiful, and it shows that Zoro is as reckless and idiotic as he is a loving, devoted husband.
Zoro's Boyfriend, Who Lives In Canada by donutsandcoffee — Modern AU, where Zoro's friends try to stop him from believing that his imaginary, totally made-up boyfriend actually exists. Of course Zoro's boyfriend doesn't actually exist, because with the way Zoro describes him he's way too perfect to exist and how can anyone so perfect actually exist? A hilarious story of misunderstandings.
Other fics from donutsandcoffee: My other favorite stories would be Prison Blues and it’s a long way forward, which serve as both a ZoSan story and a great Sanji character study.
The Three of Swords by 8ball — A medieval AU with knight Zoro and prince Sanji, a concept that starts to really grow on me after I begin to read this fic. In this story, Zoro is a cursed knight appointed to serve Sanji, a deeply kind-hearted prince whom Zoro eventually pines over. It's a beautiful take of prince and knight AU; devoted knight Zoro is something that I didn't know I need. It also has a sequel.
Steady, As She Goes by auspizien — I've always loved auspizien's fics and this is the one fic that made me fall in love with their writing. This is a modern AU story where Zoro is an ex-agent with PTSD who meets and befriends Sanji, a paramedic. It's a multi-chapter fic filled with humor, angst, pining, action, and good ol’ slow-burn.
The Tribulations of Tempation by SweetyGreeny — Zoro accidentally sees Ace and Sanji doing... the do, and then spends days after that feeling shocked, confused, angry, and disappointed. A simply delicious story of pining and jealous Zoro. There's a slight AceSan in the beginning but the endgame is still ZoSan.
Other fics from SweetyGreeny: A Siren's Sinking Song, a canon-divergent AU where Sanji is a siren who one day meets a peculiar swordsman from a wandering ship; this story is beautiful and I love the idea of siren!Sanji, but please note the major character death TW. The Burden of Blondes, Sanji finds out that Zoro has a thing for blondes, and for some reason he feels uneasy. A fun story with some good smut.
(I Want) Someone to Love Me by three_days_late — Sanji is about to turn 17, so he hopes that he can get his first kiss before that. A cute high school AU that involves everyone wanting to kiss Sanji (honestly, who doesn't) but only one person gets to actually do it.
Other fics from three_days_late: Blood Red - this might be a little biased because this fic is inspired by my comic, but that's also a perfectly good reason why I must add it here; this fic is able to capture the spirit of the comic perfectly. If you want to read a short exposition of Zoro showing his protective side, then this fic is worth the read. The Christmas Swap, a modern AU in which Sanji and Reiju switch partners during Christmas so they can attend their family gathering without having to come out as queer. It’s a wonderful story about family, relationships, and what it feels like to be closeted. The Only Way Out (Is Through), a beautiful Prince Sanji and Knight Zoro story, where circumstances forced them to be unable to be together - and it also has a side Nami/Vivi.
Curly Angel by APTX (translated to English by NMTD) — In this alternative canon universe, everyone has a guardian angel, and Zoro's just happened to be Sanji. Hilarity ensues. I have to admit that I absolutely love all of APTX's ZoSan fics, but since most of them are in Chinese, if you're like me and doesn't mind reading some really botchy translations of said fics, then you can try using Google Translate to read them.
Let me be your Inspiration by TheWanderers — College AU where Sanji is an artist/painter - another fic that explores Sanji as someone with an artistic streak, but also so much more. It's a beautiful story that starts out with Zoro having to model for Sanji's painting but ends up falling in love with him. I love the way the author adapts the characters' canon backstory into this universe.
Thy Fearful Symmetry by Harubo — A modern AU where Sanji is a tourist visiting a tiger reserve during a family vacation and Zoro is a detective investigating a poaching ring. All of Harubo's fics are godsend but I particularly love this one because the setting reads like a perfect rom-com drama movie about a stressed, overworked chef meeting a handsome detective. There's also a nice tidbit where the Vinsmoke siblings are trying to get along with each other.
Retrogade by Hazel_Athena — Sanji got badly injured after a fight, and ends up losing a big chunk of memories - he doesn't find it too bothersome until he notices how weird Zoro starts to act around him. It's a really good temporary amnesia fic with some really delicious pining!Zoro material.
Done Dirt Cheap by Balderdashfromafool — Basically a Western ZoSan AU, where Zoro is an outlaw and Sanji is a small town chef. This one is fun and lovely, and as someone who doesn’t read a lot of Western-themed stories, I love the way the author describes the Western setting in this fic.
Each A Love Song by Shadowcatxxx — Sanji is frustrated because Zoro's surprisingly popular with women when he doesn't even like them back. A story of a confused Sanji trying to find love and being the World’s Most Oblivious Man.
And that's all for now! It got way longer than I initially thought....there are some fics that I exclude, mostly the more explicit, PWP-type of fics, as well as Omegaverse fics, because my taste on them tend to be more specific and self-indulgent as ever. I might need to make a separate post for that, and also like feel free to ask me about them anytime.
I really hope I've done these fics justice with my summaries. I can't overstate how talented these authors are, so please shower them with love, kudos, comments, attention, etc etc if you have time.

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love 💖
I decided to list my five favorite Steve/Tony fics:
Pretty Convincing for Fake Husbands: After Ultron, the press is having a field day trying to tear Tony to shreds. All of the headlines and soundbites make Steve's blood boil. So he decides to divert their attention. (This is probably the stony fic I spent the most time plotting before/during writing)
Previously Thought to Be Impossible: In 1970, SHIELD HQ was working on a powerful aphrodisiac prototype. Tony Stark from 2023 happens to cut open the wrong box at the wrong time, and Steve Rogers from 2023 doesn't know how to feel about it. (I love writing them as conflicted and horny)
Happy with Someone: Steve gets invited to the US Army Ball in New York, but doesn't want to go alone. It turns out that Tony makes a great date. (Writing one of my favorite tropes was so fun!)
Once the Brain Fog Clears: SHIELD HQ loses contact with their Arctic Base, and they ask Steve, Sam, and Nat to go recover their agents. But there is a monster lurking in the ice, and it knows Steve's weaknesses. (This a psychological horror piece that challenged me but was so worth it)
Remind Me of All Our Little Dreams: When Tony dies, Steve arranges for a second chance to make things right. Not just for himself, but for Morgan too. (My take on Endgame fix-it fic, very cathartic to write)

OPLA Zosan Fic Rec (P1)
For the truth, break me loose by MarionetteFtHJM
“What?” He grunts, crossing his arms over his chest
“What is your problem with Sanji?” She hisses lowly.
He shrugs but keeps silent. He was hoping it would take her longer to notice that there indeed was a problem. Honestly, he thought he’d have a few more days at least. But she’s quick and sharp and nothing escapes her eye.
“Nothing, he’s just annoying.” He settles on saying and it’s true, she can’t deny it and he sees the protest forming on her lips. “He’s annoying.” He repeats, trying to urge her to drop the subject but she seems to instead read something in his inflection because her eyes widen and her mouth rounds.
“Oh, Zoro.” The shock quickly morphs into a sly grin that he doesn’t like one bit – her eyes are sparkling.
aka Zoro has a lot of pent up emotions about Sanji and how annoying he is.
Word Count: 13,227 - Enemies to Lovers, Getting Together, Flirting, First Time, OPLA, Explicit
For All The Times I Never Could (I’ll Be Good) by Apocalypic_Space_They
After his defeat at the hands of Dracule Mihawk, Zoro wakes up back on the ship, feeling equally physically and emotionally beat.
Luckily the Straw hat pirates had a distracting new cook who was determined to get him to stop brooding and eat.
Zoro doesn't actually hate that.
Aka Sanji brings Zoro soup, they snarky flirt.
Soup is maybe Zoro's new favorite thing.
Word Count: 3,156 - Pre-Relationship, Mild Hurt/Comfort, Food as a Metaphor for Love, Getting to Know Each Other, Fluff, OPLA
Laws of Men by Blasphemyandtheboys
Sanji has a lot to learn about love and attraction, the Strawhat pirates are his unwitting teachers.
Word Count: 10,042 Chapters 4/4 - Character Study, Internalized Homophobia, Platonic Relationships, Light Angst, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, OPLA
Get a Room Series -- by Blasphemyandtheboys
the tragedy of the dreamer by encyclopediabitch_jpeg
“People care, cook. People trust you, so return the favour. Trust that they’ll listen. That’s what a crew does,”
“I’ll take that advice if you will mosshead,”
“Alright. You’ve got a deal,”
Or
What Zoro does
Word Count: 5,087 - Hurt/Comfort, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Angst and Feels, OPLA
Complimentary by TastyTaboo
It’s surprisingly not as easy as his crew members make it seem to compliment Sanji’s food.
Word Count: 4,716 - Compliments, Food, Praise Kink, Pinning, OPLA, Explicit
a single nail, a single ruby by okayprairie
In a large bowl, beat a cup of heavy cream with a tablespoon of powdered sugar and a dash of vanilla until stiff peaks form.
"Stiff peaks?” Zoro mutters, frowning, flipping the page back and forth. The Going Merry lilts gently beneath his feet. “What the hell are stiff peaks?”
/ / /
Sanji eats like a line cook. Zoro learns the uses for tenderness.
Word Count: 4,181 - Getting to Know Each Other, Food, Crew As a Family, Tender, OPLA
How to save a life by anthea_tesdinic
Zoro is very familiar with how heavy an unconscious body can be. He’s carried several hundred pounds worth of ruthless pirate captain many a time to collect his bounty. Somehow, none of them have felt as heavy as Sanji feels in his arms at that moment.
---
Or: Zoro is bad at communicating, but good at saving Sanji's life. And catching feelings.
Word Count: 7,508 Chapters 2/2 - Mutual Pining, Drowning, First Kiss, Idiots in Love, OPLA, Mature

Mine by kmc995
(https://archiveofourown.org/works/1147745/chapters/2325236)
That’s his spot. It’s always been his spot – for way longer than it’s been Nagisa’s. What makes him think he can just swoop in and steal it? That should be him sleeping there. That should be him basking in the endless warmth that seems to just naturally radiate off of Makoto…

Then and Now by yeastofeden
"Does it even work?" Haru asked himself, shaking the device with a chiding frown. His fingers glided over the smooth surface of the tape recorder, wiping away a layer of dust that had gathered at least a few years. He remembered using this years ago, but he didn't remember what for. More than that, he certainly didn't remember using it recently. Unnamed fingerprints, however, proved otherwise, and he set it down in front of him to pass judgment on it.
