Summary
"-And it's just not fair that he teases me like that! He's not even aware he's doing it, Ann, but I swear he's going to be the death of me." Ryuji's brain was spinning trying to process what Akira was saying through his sleepy haze. Someone was... Bullying him? Someone was bullying his best friend? There was an immediate flare of indignation in Ryuji's chest at the very thought.
Or, Ryuji is caught off-guard by an unexpected late-night call. He tries to be a good friend despite it.

Summary
There's no sign of another sniper hired by one of the gangs here on Omega, no sign of his doom come to meet him.
There's only the still air, the pulsing lights of the station, and the sour taste of human alcohol from a year and a half ago.
She had invited him for a drink in her quarters. She had said they needed a chance to relax after being cooped up on dead-end assignments the council was brushing them aside to. She had said it'd be good for them.
Valediction: the action of saying farewell.
Or, Garrus Vakarian, alone.

Summary
He was just a human as far as he knew, just a normal guy who went to high school and met a guy and fell in love with him and pretended to like the most popular girl in school who ended up falling for the guy he was in love with! Perfectly normal.
But, looking back on his normal, average life, there were always weird things.
The way that when he got bloody noses they always healed quickly. The way he never had a serious fracture, even when he fell directly on his arm from several feet. The little lucky things that there was no non-magical explanation for, looking back on it.
Or, Bernard is a meta in Gotham. He does the obvious thing and hides it from everyone- including his vigilante boyfriend.

Summary
Jason knew he was going to die.
He wasn’t the first one to fall victim to the cold. He had seen two figures huddled together that same night, unmoving. He had to ignore them. He had to grip the tire iron tighter, and get to work on the foolishly parked car in front of him. Jason had gotten three tires hidden away and all of them off before the weather struck. He was on his way to take the fourth when he felt the raindrops pierce his thin jacket and he ducked for cover. The cover didn't hold and he had to find more, getting more and more soaked by the minute.
Now Jason was in the present. Dying.
Or, Jason Todd is a phoenix. How he dies and dies and lives.
