    Summary

    Zoro kept his eyes on the ledge where the pot sat intact. He had watched it fall. Watched it break. Watched the awning tear under the impact. Now it hadn’t happened.

    Summary

    Zoro stares at the calendar.  He's supposed to...what now?

    "Are—"  The waiter cuts himself off and tries again.  "I'm sorry.  Do you mean we're having...more than one party?"

    Luffy slaps his hands on the counter and shouts, "Twenty-one parties!"

    ***

    The crew has solstice festival hijinks with fireworks, a hot tub, a piñata, a stolen piano, crappy gift exchange, too much food, too much alcohol, and Luffy's wearing a pool floatie. Zoro's just along for the ride.

    Summary

    If you happen to have read another book about Edward Bear, you may remember that he lived with his friends in a wood called the Hundred Acre Wood. It was a small wood, and small things happened, the kind of things that happen to bears in places where even if elevenses are late there is always a little something for tea.

    This isn't that story.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Okay, so I don't know how much of an impact Winnie the Pooh was on your childhood. But to say I was unaware of The Hundred Acre Wood and a certain Bear would be a dirty, dirty lie.

    So when I came across a Winnie the Pooh fanfiction slap bang in the middle of an Apocalypse Big Bang Challenge, I couldn't not read it. It called out to my perverse sense of humour that someone had written a Winnie the Pooh apocalypse story of epic proportion... You think it'd be a parody or something, right? WRONG.

    'Epic' is the right word. I cannot describe it without using 'most' followed by a bunch of superlatives.
    With a voice perfectly in the style of A. A. Milne's original children's stories, it makes excellent use of hypertext (though I recommend not reading footnote 5 in advance), and comes with a gorgeous illustration and a fanmix.

    The use of Rupert Brooke's poem; the last little quotation from A. A. Milne; the goddamn footnotes - The thing is... this story broke me.

    And I want to share the bitter, oh so bitter-sweet joy.

    Please, I beg of you, go read Jay Tryfanstone's 'And Is There Honey Still For Tea?'

    Maybe once you've gathered the remains of your shredded hearts you can tell me how much you enjoyed it too.
