[2nd December] [One Piece] that which endures
Title: that which endures
Date/Theme:December 2nd / Their days are like grass
Series: One Piece
Character/Pairing: Nico Robin
Rating: G
In a hundred years, what will they remember?
Perhaps her name will linger in the Marine records, with the bounty tagged onto it, an unwelcome vital (or lethal) statistic. There may be a photo attached; herself as a child, sullen, afraid.
Perhaps not.
There was a time when she would have said that it didn't matter; that the only things which lasted were the relics of history, the dry facts, the ancient stones.
But it seems to her now that friendship also endures; that kindness is passed down and onwards, from person to person in a chain across the years.
