    Summary

    Every ten years, the Dragon descends into the village and chooses a sacrifice. The last time he’d chosen one, Keigo had been ten years old. A girl with purple and pink hair and a smile wide and sharp enough to cut had disappeared through the city gates and never been seen again. Keigo only knew her through the Commission, an older operative who taught him in the few years before she’d been taken. His earliest years under their care were long forgotten, buried beneath a haze of strenuous work.

    This year, the Commission has seeded their operatives through the options again. Keigo has been told on no uncertain terms that he must be chosen.

    OR

    Dabi is the Dragon and he unknowingly whisks a pretty bird spy away to his tower.

    Summary

    It's a year and a half after the war and Keigo has /finally/ been introduced to therapy. No longer a hero, grounded like everyone else, he's got no direction in life. He didn't expect to live past the war, he never made any plans. With the help of his service dog Rufus, maybe he'll find his future in a face from the past.

    Summary

    When Jaskier was four, he slipped his mother’s watch and went to the field to gather a bouquet of dandelions. He climbed back into the yard, as stealthy as a child really cared to be, and crept over to the barn. In the barn, lived a secret. (The man he thought his father said the secret was a monster, a plague. His mother said the secret was his sister.)

    OR

    Jaskier comes from a far humbler background, and would really like to know why Yennefer never came back for her youngest brother.

    Summary

    Bakugou peered in through the small frame. He couldn't see anything except red glinting scales, shackled by chains.

    Craning his neck he tried to make out more of the shape when the mass of scales suddenly shuddered and shifted, revealing a yellow eye watching him.

    Summary

    A shadow descends over Bakugou. Looking up from his position on the floor, he can only see the Oni’s monstrous silhouette. The sun, blocked by Kirishima’s head, creates a halo effect, shining brilliantly behind small horns and the messy points of his signature red hair. Bakugou is forced to squint as he glares up at the other spirit and is reminded of the first time he ever saw Kirishima Eijirou all those months ago…

    Basically Bakugou is the lonely Guardian Spirit of the Uraraka family shrine until one day Ochako brings home a massive grinning Oni that frustrates Bakugou like no other; at least he's not so lonely anymore. Also they eat a lot of peaches.
