    Summary

    Scar’s transferring into his second year at Hermiton University of Craft and Engineering, ready to dive into environmental architecture and leave Seattle behind. What he doesn’t expect is to recognise one of his fellow students from his flight — Grian, all sharp sarcasm, easy confidence, and way too many mutual friends.

    Grian’s back in England after a decade in the States, settling into business classes and hiding his cat in a dorm he technically shouldn’t have. Running into Scar again wasn’t part of the plan — but neither was getting paired up for a campus-wide project.

    Between lectures, group trips, suspiciously enthusiastic classmates, and a few too many close calls with contraband pets, college life gets complicated fast. But maybe that’s not such a bad thing.

    A University AU full of quick banter, quiet crushes, and the chaos of second-year student life.

    Summary

    Something is wrong with the server, and Scar is the first one to notice.

    Injuries now hurt, and respawns are even worse.
    And turns out, the more you die, the worse it gets.

    Scar dies a lot.
    Sometimes by Grian's hand.

    Grian doesn't know things are broken.
    All he has is vague feelings of guilt and confusion when Scar starts avoiding him.

    So he goes to pick flowers.
    Until he finds himself dying, relying on Scar's help to save him.

    Summary

    The kiss deepens almost on instinct, with Varka sliding his free hand up to the nape of Flins' neck, pulling him closer, tasting the faint trace of tea and honey on his lips. He feels himself sinking, melting, until even the firehouse, the smoke, the ache in his shoulders all dissolve into nothing. Just him and Flins, and the steady purr of a tiny gray ally against his stomach.

    And then—

    Whap.

    Something bats into his hair.

    Varka startles, jerks back just enough to see Sol standing on the back of the couch, tail swishing and paw already raised for another swipe. He sees the warning for what it is. Eclipse makes her appearance, by mewling at Flins' feet, urging for his attention. And there goes the moment.

    "Fuck," He groans in despair, lips still tingling from Flins' kiss. "The calvary is here."

    //or, flins' cats hate varka and after cock blocking them one too many times, a plan to win them over is made

    Summary

    The man hovering over him leaned back, releasing Grian completely. Cold night air rushed in to fill the void.

    “I guess it’s out in the open now,” the stranger hummed. “Shame. I wanted to avoid this.”

    With the additional glow occupying the space between them, Grian was finally able to catch features that were lost in the prior darkness. His curiosity outweighed all else, and he drank them in greedily. As soon as he saw who sat across from him, alarms blared in his mind.

    This man wasn’t a civilian, wasn’t even a hero.

    “Hello, Doctor,” the villain mused. “You were quite the help today.”

    - or -

    Grian is a vet. After a chance encounter in the dead of night, during which he accidentally saves a villain from the brink of death, he suddenly finds himself entangled in a world beyond anything he could've ever imagined.

    Summary

    "Tsukishima, get your little boyfriend, we need him for practice." Daichi huffs, pulling up his shorts.

    "Boyfriend?!" Tanaka yelps, glancing around like it's insane news. Kei doesn't think it's that insane. "I thought him and Yachi—"

    "I'll go get him," Kei mutters, quickly unzipping his jacket and placing it on his bag.

    Tanaka yelps and points. "You two are dating?!"

    Tadashi spits out his juice and goes into a coughing fit. Patting his back, Kei shakes his head. "We're not dating."

    Tanaka sputters, and so does Suga and Asahi.

    "You're not?!" Kageyama and Hinata exclaim in unison. They glare at each other before arguing.

    "Hinata and Kageyama—said you two were?" Suga questions, combing his hair back with his hand. "Why didn't you deny it, Tsukishima?"

    People assume Yamaguchi is Tsukishima's boyfriend, and Tsukishima doesn't really mind.
