  1. Summary

    Izuku wakes only with the knowledge of his name and vague useless facts about the world around him. He carries on, making friends and learning what he can of where, who and what he is within the mortal realm ruled by the gods.

    He learns of the world’s doom, his friend’s plight to prevent it and discovers his memories locked away in stones of worship.

    Among the revelations of a several thousand year power struggle and the truths that lie between realms, Izuku discovers that he cannot allow his friend to suffer alone and endeavors to give his all to help her.

    Even at the cost of his own life.

    Summary

    "Everyone goes into the pot, you know that."

    Jack did know that, in theory. "I thought you were keeping me out of it. As a kindness."

    Robby snorted. "A kindness."

    "Because I'm such a," he took a second to think of the word, "contributor. Annually."

    Robby stopped writing — mid-name, it seemed, Cassie barely legible on the scrap in front of him — and cocked his head. "Is that what you're calling it?"

    (5 times Jack bid on his coworkers at the charity gala, and 1 time the tables were turned.)

    Summary

    “Work relaxes me, Mohan,” Abbot says, not quite chiding, his tone a shade warmer. He leans his hip against her workstation, ducking his head until she looks at him. “If I’m not at work, I’m trying to find a reason to come back to work. Let me read your article. I’ll be nice to you about it, not just because someone should, but because I can tell you without even reading it that it’s good.”

    “You cannot possibly know that,” Samira blurts out.

    He looks at her with an expression that’s stuck halfway between inquisitive and amused; the left side of his mouth threatens a smile. “Sure I can. I know you.”

    ++

    Abbot and Mohan flirt in the Google Doc comments of her unpublished article. Abbot takes it upon himself to instruct Mohan on how to accept praise.
