    Summary

    “You know what kept me going, century after century?” Hob is angry enough, desperate enough, that his voice drops low, quiet. “Even when I had nothing?”

    The music around them crests, waves crashing against the unyielding shores of time –

    “Chimneys,” Morpheus answers, bland.

    Oh, what a bastard.

    --------------------

    Or, dreams are memories, Hob reflects about life, and Morpheus learns a thing or two about what it means to be saved, and to be loved.

    Summary

    Midoriya Izuku is having a terrible day. He’s told to take a swan dive off of a roof, nearly suffocated by a villain, told he couldn’t be a hero by his favorite hero of all people - and all of that’s before he gets kidnapped by a giant, tentacled ship flying through the sky and has a worm put into his brain alongside a hero who tried to save him.

    What in the hell is a quirkless kid supposed to do in this situation? The only thing he can, he supposes - try his best.

    OR: A Baldur's Gate 3/My Hero Academia crossover wherein Midoriya and Aizawa are taken by the Mind Flayer ship as it attempts to flee the githyanki and both wind up in the middle of a plot concocted by an evil, terrifying cult. Midoriya wants to help, Aizawa wants Midoriya to stop running headfirst into danger, and everyone who meets them wants to know what the hell an All Might is.

    Summary

    This is a time-travel fix-it (sort of). After Will pulls them off the cliff, Hannibal wakes up on the day he met Will.

    He proceeds to experience a lot of different loops where he tries to do things differently so they'll end up closer to his ideal outcome, and then things that will create Will's perfect world, and then he just... he just wants to create the perfect life for the two of them. Will's perfect and his own perfect don't really mesh, and Hannibal begins to realize that maybe... maybe some of the things he did to Will were bad. Maybe he was wrong. Maybe he even regrets some of his choices.

    Hannibal learns the rules of time travel as he is forced to loop for what amounts to hundreds of years. He has to get it right. He has to fix whatever he did wrong. Because his real body and his real Will are still falling, and until Hannibal gets this right, he won't be able to save them.

    Summary

    Most people would not call Akira a hard worker. Now, it was an extremely unfair thing to say, given the fact that Akira was working very hard in the Metaverse and in his bedroom at his desk, where he did nothing but stare hard at the wall—all things considered—but no one could see what he had done, let alone what he was about to do—so everyone kept calling him a troublemaker and quiet kid. Keep your head down had turned into stay down, but it made Akira’s habits all the more funny. He couldn’t help it.

    (or: akira has access to the metaverse and the velvet room before his probation.)

    Summary

    Martin makes Jon tea for the first time about a week into his transfer. It’s horrible. Gag-reflex inducing. Somehow sporting all the wrong flavors.

    For some reason, he does not have the heart to break this to Martin.

    Little does Jon know that Martin actually makes wonderful tea. Just not for him.
