Summary
Izuku lays dying in Katsuki's arms.
----------
So for starters this is my first ever post on AO3 after having only been reading on here for about a month or two, so PLEASE make sure to give (constructive) criticisms, tips, or ask questions.I wrote this a few months ago while avoiding an essay I was supposed to write, so this wasn't necessarily something I planned to turn into like 20 chapters or anything.
Also I apologize in advance for the fact that I have a very hard time keeping track of what tense I write in. I tried to keep it in the present tense, but I know I slipped into past tense at some points. Feel free to point it out if it bothers you; I'll go back and fix it.

Summary
Aliens. These were actual, real-life aliens.
He’d realized it pretty much as soon as they walked in. But he hadn’t processed it until now.
Meta abilities were rare. They started with that glowing baby in China and seemed to appear at random all over the world. None of those abilities were like this though. Nobody’s entire body changed like this, let alone a whole group of people changing the same way. That detail alone made it clear that these things could not be human at all. They were alien to Earth itself.
Shinsou Hitoshi had just been trying to avoid his shitty foster home and now he was caught up in an alien abduction with eight other people. What was going to happen to them?

be bleeding in order to be open?what if someone had told me
that a wound was not the only way
to travel into the center of myself?---
Five times Grian finds his worth in others, and one time he sees it in himself.

Summary
Pearl let out a few disbelieving gasps as she sat on his bed, she looked like a statue. Grian tried to keep his breaths steady but he failed with each attempt. He couldn’t fathom what he was told as they ate.
He was to be wedded soon. He was to be wedded off to Scar of all people.
“This is nothing less than cruel to you.” Pearl’s eyes were full of unshed tears, he reckons that it’s from both sadness and anger.
“We both know that nothing can come from this marriage, they're just sending you off to go deal with that monster for them.” He knew what she was talking about. Grian was just as confused as his sister when it came to him being chosen. There was one major flaw in this marriage that just couldn’t be overlooked.
(Basically I made a desert duo arranged marriage AU, updates every week on sundays! or at least that's the goal)

I'm so intriguedddddd. I love the complexities of their dynamic and navigating their respective cultural traditions surrounding marriage and how they navigate those when neither trusts the other
----
I absolutely love how we see their relationship develop. God this is such a great read 100/10 -

Summary
As he falls, he lets himself think about it. He lets himself think that if he wakes up, if things go back again, it means that he does have a quirk. It means he really can take a swan dive off a roof and hope for better luck in his next life. It means that all along, he’s been useless and worthless because he hasn’t died yet.
He hits the ground.
And then he opens his eyes.
(vigilante!izuku AU where izuku has a quirk that rewinds time when he dies)

Summary
"I don't want to pry," Xisuma said when they were speaking before his official invitation to join. "And not answering won't change whether or not you get whitelisted. We admins just prefer to have a heads up if anything's likely to come trying to dig you up, so we can keep you and everyone else safe."
Grian thought back to obsidian and endstone and blood, to tattered wings and torn robes and so so many unseeable eyes, and swallowed hard.
"No," he said, his voice shaky. "No, I don't think anyone will come looking for me."
"Okay," Xisuma answered, and that was that.
Until they invited two new people to the server.
or, the Hermitcraft Backstory Rule says that you don't ask other people about their backstory, you let them tell it if they want to and leave it be if they don't.
Unfortunately for Grian, one of the newest Hermits was also a player on his old server - one he'd thought had been dead for years - and she's going to drag his backstory kicking and screaming into the light whether she means to or not.

Bookmarker's Notes
Absolutely exploding over the mechanics of the cuckoos and their world building, I absolutely love this so much. I just love "ship of theseus" scenarios where it's not the same person anymore, except it kind of is because they've got the memories and sense of identity to still think of themself as the same person, but they're not quite seen that way by others. I've seen it done a couple times and it always works so well I love it. Admittedly, the two Grians are actually in fact different people fundamentally, but it's a similar gist. I just love how it was carried out. Truly incredible
