    Summary

    “You're not worried about bein' the only woman bunking with a cabinful of men?”

    Nora comes to a stop at the empty bunk, turns and casts a cursory eye over the men now staring at her. “Don't worry, gentlemen. I'll return you to your mamas with your virtue in one piece. This bunk taken?”

    ----

    Fuck I dunno just roll with it IW fucked me up and I'm trying to cope

    ----

    Edit, 2025: I wrote that description in 2018 when I first started this and am only now realising it may be just slightly too vague a description. Hindsight, 20/20, so on so forth.

    One day, while tucked in a hospital bed after an incident of her own creation (though she will deny it up and down), Steve Rogers allows Nora Joseph to write a letter to his best friend, out on the front lines while painkillers are filling her system. What follows is an exchange of letters that changes the course of Nora & Bucky's lives for good. or bad. who knows? Certainly not them.

    and certainly not the author who is still working on this, eight years later

    Summary

    There’s a seat two rows in, first from the left, by the windows. Pros: windows. Cons: In front of the cheerleaders. If it had just been Chrissy Cunningham, it wouldn't be a problem. Saint Chrissy Cunningham is genuinely nice to everyone. Even him. Always has been. Unfortunately, it is not just sweet Chrissy sitting in that cluster of desks. It’s also spiteful Stacy, bitchy Betty, acidic Allison and vindictive Veronica.

    There’s another seat in the first row, dead centre of the room. Pros: ... Cons: Sitting in Mrs Draper’s splash zone and direct line of sight.

    The final empty seat is all the way at the back. The empty seat next to his.

    Pros: Well, isn’t it obvious? She’d be sitting next to Eddie Munson.

    Cons: ... Well, isn't it obvious? She'd be sitting next to Eddie Munson.

    If she had any sort of brain in that cute little head of hers, Miss Elora "I like to go by Ellie" Sheridan would sit elsewhere.

    Summary

    Mitzi’s in with the vet, and Shinsou’s standing in the reception area, the blonde quietly sat behind him, and now that he’s got a moment to think, he’s realising a few things.
    1. He doesn’t know the blonde’s name.
    2. He doesn’t know why he let the blonde jump in the car with him and come to the vet with him.
    3. He definitely doesn’t recall letting the blonde into his apartment.
    But we’re getting a little ahead of ourselves.
    ---

    The only reason Shinsou Hitoshi's cat is alive is because the blonde moron who broke into his apartment was dumb enough to alert him that Mitzi had eaten something she shouldn't have.

    The blonde moron also likes to walk through walls and make Shinsou look like he's talking to himself.

    Because the blonde moron is, in fact, dead, and haunting his apartment as a ghost because Shinsou is the only one who can see him.

    Summary

    The hallway leading from the bedroom to the living room is in line of sight of your couch, and so you have almost no trouble catching his attention, even with his hearing aids out. Your book rests on your chest as you sign. What are you doing[?]

    He raises his laptop as he nears, face deadpan, almost as if to say, what does it look like?

    You[’ve] spent the past three days at work. Put it away.

    Summary

    As fate would have it, because that’s just the way the universe works, when Denki overloads next, Shinsou isn’t there. He’d missed classes a few weeks prior, attending a work study in the city over, and the one subject he fell behind miserably in was mathematics. While the rest of 2-A heads off for hero training, Shinsou heads off for the make-up classes with Ectoplasm.

    ----

    A continuation of Sunshine & Lightning - Denki's quirk can sometimes have some damaging side-effects. Only his boyfriend, Shinsou knows. Everyone else finds out, in the worst way possible.

    Summary

    “How’s Kenma?”

    “He’s good, says hi.” Kuroo says after he swallows his mouthful, pushing his food around his plate. He looks a little disappointed, and before you can ask what’s wrong, he continues. “I guess if you’re meeting up with Mina I won’t see you tonight.”

    You try not to let the amusement show on your face – he seems genuinely upset, and it would be mean to laugh when he looks like a sad kitten caught in the rain. “I came over last night, Tetsurou, and you came over mine the night before that.”

    “I know that, I just like being around you.” He shoves more food into his mouth almost desparingly, and you take a long drink from your water so as not to burst out giggling.

    ----

    The Reader is Kuroo's Assistant, and they're in a secret relationship. Just how good of a secret can they keep? Will they be able to keep it hidden around their coworkers non-stop for a whole week during a work-trip?

    Summary

    Shinsou’s still staring, mouth agape, eyes wide when Kaminari finally frees himself from his shirt, eyes darting nervously from person to person. “What? Why are you all staring?”

    “Dude… what is that?” Kirishima asks, blunt, but not rude – concerned. Kaminari follows everyone’s gaze to his midsection, blinks a moment, and then laughs, flapping his shirt at Kirishima.

    “It’s nothing, bro. It’s just like a heat rash kinda thing I get sometimes ‘cause of my quirk. No biggie, it’ll be gone by tomorrow.”

    ---

    There's a side-effect to Kaminari's quirk that he keeps hidden. Shinsou finds out.

    Summary

    In the nightmare, Deku never appears. All Might stands and watches as he drowns and he can’t even hear his own screams.

    Those are the nights Bakugou wakes in a cold sweat, shout strangled in his throat, gasping for air.

    That’s how he knows he’s awake – hearing the sound of his own ragged breathing in his big, empty apartment, sheets singed, smoking, the crack-pop! of his sparks in his palms, the sounds of the city below loud in his ears.

    Summary

    It wasn’t that he was purposefully ignoring your emotions, you know that. He could often be very in tune with them, knowing something is wrong by a twist of your lip or the crease of your brow.

    But not today.

    Kuroo’s riding the high of his own good day, and you can’t help feeling a little resentful.

    The Reader and Kuroo have their first major fight. Oh boy.

    Summary

    Lisa’s underhanded toss lands the paper ball in your (thankfully empty and clean) mug, and you quickly grab your notepad and write a big “10”, holding it up like a scorecard while she pretends to cheer. You’re both giggling quietly as you read her response.

    Summary

    The couches in the living room feel like heaven. Kuroo muses that he likes your daisy-printed, overstuffed sofa better, and you look up at him in disbelief from where you’ve sunk into the cushions.

    The kitchen has you excited, because that’s the level of Adult you’ve reached – you get excited about things like an incredible kitchen or a good vacuum.

    Summary

    “ – what do you mean, you can’t leave until I do?” He interrupts, head tilting slightly to the side, the confusion rife on his face. It throws you off your tangent, and your well-thought out, one-sided argument peters out.

    “Well – I … As I am your assistant, I can’t leave until you do, in the event that you require my… assistance… because I’m your… assistant?” You almost want to laugh at the near incoherent jumble of words that falls out of your mouth, but you know if you start laughing, you won’t stop, falling into overtired hysterics, and so you tamp down on the giggles. There was, after all, nothing really funny about this situation. “Why are you asking me like you didn’t know that, Kuroo-san?”

    ----

    You are Kuroo's Assistant, and boy are you tired of being stuck in the office until midnight because your boss is a workaholic.

    Summary

    “Okay. Can I ask you something else, then?”

    “Mhm.” The agreement is out your mouth before you can stop it. You suspected you’d agree with anything he said at the moment.

    “When I say you’re beautiful, you believe me, right?”

    … You’ll agree to anything he says but that.

    Bokuto notices a change in you, and decides that he doesn't like it. He just wants you to love you as much as he loves you, dammit.

    Summary

    After being with you for so long and living with you for almost a year now, Koutarou has gotten good at reading your behaviours and habits, particularly when you came home from work.

    For example, if you sung a teasing little “honey, I’m home~!” as you flung open the door with a flourish, you’d had a good day.

    If you smiled at him with a “hey baby,” you’d had a reasonable day.

    If you said nothing, dropped your bag and immediately went to him for a hug, you’d had a bad day.

    Today is a new one that he’s never seen before.

    Summary

    When he emerges from the bedroom, you’re in the same position, and he glances at the mug in your hands as he passes by the couch – you haven’t taken even a sip since he left you, nearly twenty minutes ago. Bokuto frowns, and turns to drop a kiss on the top of your head. You startle, looking up at him with wide eyes, as though you hadn’t heard him traipsing about.

    Summary

    The four inquisition soldiers Rylen had insisted accompany them to the Tevinter border are silent in the presence of the Herald and the Magister. The intended route would mean a few weeks worth of travel, and Anya assumed they would lighten up their dispositions by the time they reached Sulcher’s Pass. They would take the Imperial Highway to a Highever port, cross the Waking Sea and head through the Free Marches to Tevinter.
    The inevitable fact of it was, however, that once on Sulcher’s Pass, everything would go wrong; as it was wont to do when Anastasia Trevelyan was involved.

    Summary

    "Commander, with all due respect, you've got a great pair o'knockers and it's a shame you gotta hide 'em." Michaels croons to Shepard's left.
    "C'est la vie, Michaels. If there weren't regs, in another life, all that jazz."
    Whatever Michaels is about to say in response is lost in the sound of a klaxon and the flashing of red lights. Shepard's stomach drops through the floor as her heart climbs into her throat.
    They were under attack and ninety percent of her crew was sprawled drunk.
