Sabo, you shouldn't have listened to Koala! He so does need you. That mean Rayleigh will just deny him his crew, but you're not part of his crew, you could come!! Not to stay with him for two years, but just give him love and reassurance at a time when he could really need it.

*cough* *ahem* *is still biased at Oda for this* But anyway, this is a terrific glimpse at a moment that could easily have happened in canon, as far as we know right now. I love Koala doing Fishman Karate to make him see reason - from her point of view, since she'd no doubt needed to figure things out on her own too in her rough life. (And I wonder how many other moments Sabo's had over the years wanting to go see Luffy and Ace and needing to be persuaded, until Doflamingo pushed things to a point way too much.)

Thank you so much for writing this and sharing!

This drabble made it into my top 3 drabbles of all instantly. It's so amazing because the idea is great, the realization of it is as well and so heavy with different emotions that it gave me intense feels ;A; Despite that, I think that both characters are very in-character. Awesome job!
