Fics like Where the Embers Refuse to Die

Ace expected to die at the hands of Whitebeard. Instead, he finds himself stuck aboard the Moby Dick, “kidnapped” by a crew that stubbornly insists on calling him “brother.” Determined to escape and reunite with the Spades, Ace isolates himself and rejects this pirate family he doesn’t understand. And besides, if this family is so close-knit, why did their mysterious First Commander vanish on the very day Ace arrived, abandoning his post and leaving Thatch and Izou on edge? When he finally reappears after two months of unexplained absence, this Marco is nothing like the fearsome great pirate Ace was told about. He is calm. Strangely forgiving. And above all, his eyes carry the weight of an unfathomable grief and a crushing melancholy that Ace cannot explain. Between his explosive anger, the appearance of an amnesiac revolutionary who awakens the ghosts of his past, and those unbearable blue flames that seem determined to heal his deepest wounds, Ace will have to face a terrifying reality: what if he were finally allowed to live? The fic is finished and I’m posting it as I reread/edit it (a few chapters per day). (working on epilogue's request)
