Summary
I am looking for my— friend, Lan Wangji plays, stumbling only slightly on the chord. For the very first time in his life, his fingers had almost given him away. Is he here?
Yes. Funny boy. Good at games. Very good at games.
Games?
Yes. Screaming games. Blood games. Dreaming games. Very good at games.
(Or: Wei Wuxian never made it out of the burial mounds the first time. After three years of long and bloody war, Lan Wangji follows up on one final rumour.)

Summary
The HPSC President laughs dryly. “I hate to say it, but Villain Rehabilitation Services might actually be the department best equipped to handle Todoroki right now. Difficult, fraught, potentially lethal cases aren’t exactly uncommon for you.”
“What does it say about Heroes that their best and brightest has a psychological profile like that,” Izuku mutters.
“If we wanted sane, we would’ve run out of Heroes a long time ago.”In which Shouto gets drop-kicked into Character Development a decade too late, and Izuku never quite managed to catch a break.

Bookmarker's Notes
Detailed and nuanced worldbuilding, characters written with psychological complexity and distinctive voices, AND a deep-dive into several facets of BNHA's society---the corrections and rehabilitations arm of the criminal justice system (in all of its promise and agonizing bureaucratic failure); the day-to-day realities quirk discrimination for both quirkless and quirked individuals; and the lasting effects of trauma on a person's life---that are seldom handled with such poise and deftness. This fic has really been worth every second I've spent reading and re-reading it!

Summary
Midoriya Izuku just wants to lead a quiet, peaceful life. This is foiled by the fact that a) he can see spirits, b) his good nature demands that he help anyone he sees in trouble, and c) he, by all rights, should not exist.
Helping the heroes who have fallen victim to the new quirk-breaking drug is a terrible idea for many reasons, the first and most important being that he hates attention and avoids it like the plague. But he's the only one who can help, so he does.
This is, Izuku decides as he breaks in, more trouble than it's worth.
