''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5077152/1/Though_A_Bird_Cant_Fly_Doesnt_Mean_It_Never_Will Though A Bird Can't Fly, That Doesn't Mean It Never Will]'' is a ''[[One Piece]]'' [[Alternate Universe Fic]] in which Zoro's deceased childhood friend Kuina survived her [[Dropped a Bridge Onon Him|tragically anticlimactic accident]], only to be struck blind instead.
 
With Zoro's encouragement, Kuina struggles to overcome her impairments and become as good a swordswoman as she ever was. Years later, she finally catches up with Zoro, only to discover he's fallen in with Straw-Hat Luffy and his crew. Kuina, in turn, is driven to join up with the Marines (to be more precise, with Captain Smoker's crew) in order to pursue Zoro and either bring him to his senses... or bring him down. Kuina's pursuit of Zoro ends up taking her on the journey of her life, weaving a tale that crosses paths with the familiar chronicle of the One Piece series in interesting ways.
Line 10:
* [[Disability Superpower]]: Apparently being blind makes it easier to have super hearing and {{spoiler|develop haki.}}
* [[Dangerously Genre Savvy]]: Nico Robin {{spoiler|defeats Kuina by throwing her down the stairs.}}
* [[Grievous Harm Withwith a Body]]: One of the fights has a marine being beaten up with his own broken-off arm. Ouch.
* [[Hope Spot]]: {{spoiler|Pell's alive}}! Nope, it's just {{spoiler|his body}}.
* [[Imagine Spot]]: Kuina has some ''hilariously'' wrong ideas about what Luffy is like.
Line 24:
* [[Shout-Out]]:
** Kuina's sword teacher is clearly inspired by (and named for!) the protagonist of [[Zatoichi]].
** During one of Kuina's fantasies about Luffy, she imagines him as posing dramatically with a notebook while boasting about his ability to [[Death Note (Manga)|kill anyone whose true name he knows]].
* [[Skilled but Naive]]: Kuina is extremely skilled with swords, but her ignorance of the world outside her village and interpersonal relationships is occasionally worse than Zoro's.
* [[Stern Chase]]
