Summary
There was one cat, he liked it the most. It reminded him of the tricks with alley cats, where they’d meow at you out of habit. They'd tell you what you wanted to hear, and stare at you with big eyes expectantly.
In South America, a margay would mimic the sound of a monkey crying. It's parents would run over, tricked by the lure. Then the margay would pounce when its prey was unaware, being victorious over the trickery of voice. It was interesting, chattering and talking and small and unassuming; brilliant like the hunter it was.
Shinsou knew he was cursed with a quirk like his; he was destined for crime and other illicit abilities. Already people had made comments, already he walked home alone without fear because a few words and he’d be fine. Already, the men in his neighbourhood knew not to attack the kid with purple hair.
A margay was a beautiful forest predator, it didn’t fear anyone or anything.
Shinsou wanted to be a hero, he wanted to prove them wrong.
His mother maybe didn’t give a shit anymore, but he still did.
Shinsou applied to UA.
You want me to chatter? I'll sink my claws in you.

Summary
“Oi, Deku!” Bakugou shouted, eyes meeting startled green. “How often do fucking heroes contact students for internships?”
Deku looked startled, floundering a tad under the attention. “I- uh- never?”
“Huh,” Bakugou said, reading over the letter again.
“What?” Kirishima gaped. “Did a hero mail you a letter?”
Bakugou rolled his eyes. “Fuck no. I think that bitch Miruko-whatever sent me a fucking death threat and her number.”Series

Summary
Flying back to Cherry Street, weaving reckless in the dark, it comes down to this: Dick is the only one of his siblings that Jason has any real claim on. Dick is the only one of that whole mess of victims to Batman's cult of self-immolation who belongs to Jason. Even more than that - Dick is the only person in the world who he shares a parent with, who knows what it meant to be the Robin to Batman of nearly ten years ago.
It's just not the same anymore.
So if Dick fucking kicks it, Jason's the only one left. Jason becomes an only child. Jason becomes the last of his kind. Jason becomes the sole keeper of that memory, of a brotherhood shared under a man who no longer exists. There is no way to replace Dick, because the world that they lived in together is gone, and can never give Jason a surrogate.
The Red Hood pulls the thread on a mystery big enough to bridge the distance between two cities, two brothers: The plot they unravel is far deeper and darker than a garden-variety drug trafficking scheme. A story about siblingship, hauntings, and rivers.
1. Ostium, osti(i): Latin noun, II Declension: Door, opening; (river) mouth; entrance (to the underworld).

Summary
Dick has only been a mob enforcer for six months, but delivering a shipment of guns to an up-and-coming crime lord in Gotham should have been easy. All he needs to do is win the man's trust and secure him as a repeat customer.
Unfortunately, the Red Hood is not impressed with him.
