    Summary

    “Oh, gods forbid they respond positively to you doing a good thing,” Neve deadpans. She squeezes him a little again. “That’s sort of how it works, Astarion.”

    She can’t even see it. Believes the best of them all so earnestly, himself included, that she can’t see how it would all fall away without her at the center. It’s enough to make a person feel like they might actually deserve it.

    “And by it, you mean…?” he asks instead.

    Her huffed laugh of disbelief ruffles the hair at his neck. “Friendship, you idiot,” she answers. “And the general acquisition thereof.”

    Astarion cuts a sideways look at her as best he can with her still nestled so close. “And is that what we are? Friends?”

    He’d meant it to tease her, and yet finds that the silence before her answer twists his stomach. Because…he doesn’t actually know, either.

    “Yes, Astarion,” Neve says gently, after a moment. “I think we’re very good friends.”

    -

    Neve and Astarion, continued. She's not a victim. Not a target. Not just one night it's better to forget. But then...whatever in the world could she be?

    Summary

    The Minato-sensei beams at him, and replies, “Kakashi! I’m glad you’re awake,” and, yup, that’s Minato-sensei’s voice.
    Kakashi falls back down against the bed, closing his eyes. It’s too short of a way down, and he clenches hands that are too tiny and feeble and not his in dog-print sheets he hasn’t owned for decades.

    Summary

    Kakashi's plan to save the world is something vaguely involving exposing Danzo's involvement in everything and stalking Orochimaru to make sure he can keep an eye on any potentially apocalyptic projects. His plan did NOT involve becoming the student of Orochimaru. (Also his plan kinda sucks and Sasuke may have had a point when he said he didn't have a plan.)

    (Realistically he didn't have much of a plan and thank god for Tsunade because both Kakashi and Orochimaru are a hot mess)

    Summary

    "And if I don't comply?" Todoroki asks, staring the leader dead in the eye. The kid hasn't tried to make a break for it yet, but his restraints are tight enough that he can't move.

    "Then you can't leave," Tomura replies. "We can do this all day." He mentally curses Dabi, who said that if he lays a finger on the boy, he'll burn down the whole warehouse. Now the most he can do is leave the kid tied up for a while, and that'll probably interfere with movie night. Damn him.

    "In that case, I wish to stay." The boy turns to Magne, suddenly back to charming middle schooler mode. "Am I able to have a peanut butter sandwich? Father never lets me eat unhealthy food."

    OR: The League of Villains kidnaps a moody middle school Todoroki who doesn't actually want to be sent back home

    Summary

    Hizashi’s mouth falls open in surprise, “Tsukauchi—”

    Tsukauchi gestures a scratched-up hand to the cat, “I present Catzawa the menace, as he's been so accurately dubbed by some of the officers. Don’t be fooled by the cute face and fluff, Eraser is still in there.”

    “That’s a cat.” Hizashi says doubtfully.

    The cat makes an offended sort of meow.

    tl;dr

    Shōta gets affected by an accidental Quirk on patrol, and Hizashi has far to much fun coming to terms with that fact.
