    Bookmarker's Notes

    nice good Gen general legend of Zelda link fic with spotlight on wild with twilight's pov, looking for that one missing hero in modern college cafe coffee shop au

    also some lowkey subtle spotlight like twi/time fatherly relation and twi/wild protectiveness.

    short bamf wild or twilight moment. indirect angst hurt/comfort for wild link

    I guess my favorite scene is when wild link unknowingly picked up the master sword and unaware what it meant lol. also the scene in ch 34 where wild thought heroes can get grounded was nice

    wish there's more of these kinds of Gen fics

    ch 15 - reveal/confirmation

    ---------

    some psychology like a person's reaction to bad things in life/when life doesn't go their way (wild reacted positively to his problems and worked hard to overcome, Claude succumbed and chose the bad path and made wrong decisions).... and also, a person permanently being changed after their experiences

     

    When Iila lost her memories, she was sent into a spiral of depression. She would have screaming fits and nightmares that wouldn't end. There were moments where she'd hold something like a childhood toy and just stare at it like it held all the answers to the universe, getting angrier by the second when nothing familiar came to her. It took the efforts of both Twilight and Bo to finally convince her to go therapy. Iila was much better now, though she was not the same person Twilight knew from childhood. She was quieter, had less energy, and she took little pleasure in the things she once enjoyed. Twilight hated there was nothing he could do for her but wait.

     

    ××××××××××××

     

    Twilight drank. Water dribbled down his bloody chin, wetting his collar. He didn't stop till the bottle was a third empty. "Thank... you," he said once he was done.

    Charles grunted and placed the bottle back down. "You don't need to be polite. I know exactly what you must think of me."

     

    "And what... do I... think... of you?"

     

    "Don't patronize me," Charles hissed at him. "What a failure. What an idiot. The man couldn't become a Hero so he becomes the villain, how original."

     

    "I wasn't... thinking... that."

    "Please. It's not like I wanted this to fucking happen. I had plans, you know. But once I came home with a burnt hand and a police warrant on my head, I had no where else to go. The Yiga were the only ones who understood what happened to me, what bullshit it is that I, a grown adult, was turned down but you allowed a fourteen year old kid to join."

    "Are you kidding me?" Wild said. "You got rejected, so you decide your next step was to join the mafia?"

    "You shut the hell up before I make you shut up."

    "You killed that cab driver!"

    Charles flinched. He took a step back, and he stared down at the floor, unable to deny it.

    "Did you even call an ambulance before you hauled us away?" Wild demanded.

    "You stand there, moaning and whining about how unfair the Heroes were to you-"

    "Shut up."

    "-but let's face it, if this is how you react when life doesn't go your way-"

    "Shut. Up."

    "-it's no damn wonder the sword deemed you unworthy!"

    "SHUT UP!"

    Charles slammed his heavily scarred fist across Wild's face, knocking him and the chair to the floor.

    "Stop!" Twilight protested. He jerked forward, and his body was quick to remind he still had several broken bones. He gasped and curled in on himself, trembling.

    On the floor, Wild spat out blood. He groaned. "Beating up a teenager. Great."

    "If you don't stop talking I swear I'll-"

    Summary

    Upon waking, Shouta’s first thought is ‘Huh, I guess I’m not dead’.

    His second thought is, ‘Shit, I’m not dead.’

    It’s hard to say how long that will last once Nemuri and Hizashi find out what happened — or worse, Nedzu, because Shouta just knows the principal will use this as an excuse for another one of his awareness training seminars.

    Shouta then remembers he also now teaches a class of hellions who somehow got attached to him — he does not want to know what they’ll do if they find out he got… abducted or whatever happened to him.

    Shouta let one unsanctioned rescue mission pass, he will not let pass another.

    :: In which Shouta gets yeeted back to the past, and ends up learning more about everybody's favorite Problem Child. Even if he'd rather do anything else.

    ULTRA BEST FAVE FAVORITE GEN BNHA IZUKU MIDORIYA FIC. (about izuku midoriya and his life and his life path)

    (ignore this pls, im kinda embarrassed)

    seriously. I love it so much. this fic... idk if any other bnha fic I've read gave me this same feeling, where a fic perfectly encapsulated what I believe to be the core of Izuku Midoriya. like, seriously,,, it's so well thought out. and I love how it handled izuku and his quirkless/quirked dilemma self, it was perfect and satisfying. it's like,,,, the very ESSENCE of bnha/deku, what I really admire most about izuku and why he's such a freaking good hero.

    also, of course alternate dimension travel with hehe hero deku. the low-key spotlight attention was lil satisfying. also OP BAMF cool strong deku. very admirable deku

    so... writing. mygosh,,,, idk how to describe it. tbh while reading the writing style wasn't the thing that was satisfying/enjoyable.... , but the plot and the thought out-ness was? idk what to describe it. the plot/theme/message???? that was like, incredibly perfection and satisfying... like, it was really enjoyable to see everything in full circle and stuff, such as the title, and the plot/theme of the fanfic which was apparently present from the very beginning. tbh i didn't think much of the title, but HOLY DAMN its so,,, perfect!!! like, it makes perfect sense. and also, it really translates so well to canon. like, tbh I really disliked izuku getting the Quirk bc he got "lucky" but this fic perfectly solved that dilemma for me in the most perfect and satisfying way. the whole theme/plot of the story is just perfect bruh. also, I didn't realize the whole thing with the villain plot lol, that was sneaky/smart. also, the things in the last chapter authors' note being pointed out

    anyways yeah. I just really love the plot/theme/ overarching (plot/theme)? of the story. I cant describe it, but yeah... the theme(?) is perfection. it's like,,,, so gooooooddd,,, man. it's perfect, perfectly BNHA and perfectly canonical.

    also, ig check my comments for my honest and real thoughts about the fic

     

     

    also psychology too. about like life, changes/growth, as a person and fundamental changes and stuff, and about going onwards with life. idk how to describe it, but... this fic helped me realize I'm not the same person as I was three years ago. that it's okay that aphrea77 three years ago and aphrea77 in the present are different ppl, and that's okay. idk, I can't really describe it. psychology life problems hard man. also, this fic ended on a really good and inspirational note too, so it helped bring back a bit of my good/excited/motivated mind instead of my depressed/hopeless mind the past week. also idk, this fic like addressed my main problem in life rn? so yeah. hngggggg it's so good, like seriously

Emma, who has a habit of becoming too involved in her friends' lives and doesn't plan to date anyone else anyway, agrees. It should all be very simple.

    Ghouls are still around, even after quirks began to form. It didn't take too long for the ghouls to catch up, genetically speaking.

    As times changed, so did attitudes about ghouls- not much, of course, but enough to where the ruthless killing of them started to seem... cruel. So, imprisoning them seemed to be the next most logical step.

    // SPOILERS!! BEWARE

    longfic 90k words george/emma friends to lovers modern au fake/pretend relationship fake boyfriend fake dating

    i love these kinda ship dynamics where friends bicker and fall in love with each other, dramatic irony secret fake relationship shenanigans. george/emma reminds me of anne/gilbert, but grown up adults with very long year friendship

    also i realized, it seems like jane austen really likes forbidden love/bickering idiots in love (which i love, but emma is now my fave instead of p&p)

    also this fic, i really love the library nosebleed and the confession laugh scene. the library nosebleed was especially notable for me tho bc it really shocked me, i never expected the nosebleed, which is a very rare experience for me, so i really enjoyed reading that part. i literally paused reading bc i couldnt get over the nosebleed shock lmao XD

    also some romantic angst, like that self-indulgent whump fave trope of mine of a character hiding their feelings and suffering even more

    also, they were idiots in love your honor. misunderstandings. some romcom too ig? but its mostly emma having trouble with her newlyfound feelings when she was in denial before, and emma being extremely thirsty and horny for george lol.

     

    also some psychology life feelings relationships normal things? like chapter 6 most especially

    5th Emma book

    I didn't understand the first few parts because all the regency jargon flew over my head, so I took a break, BUT OH MY GOD I LOVE THIS FIC!!!

    it's so satisfying self-indulgent v outsider POV spotlight reaction, I just really liked it hehe. John being protective and caring for his brother George knightley

    I just really enjoyed reading this, spotlight other pov teasing the romance. Also I really love Mr Knightley being a BIG SIMP and pining for Emma... I love stoic men who are idiots in love

    Also I realized, Jane Austen really likes "forbidden" enemies to lovers bickering romance, because I got pride and prejudice vibes from her story

    Three whole days since they had finalized their engagement. Since he’d kissed her in the parlor – kissed her until she felt light in the head and warm all over, and her father, perhaps feeling the silence a little too long, declared that he was too hot behind his screens and they should be taken away at once.
    She turned on her heel at the parlor entrance and paced back toward the front door. She decided that if he didn’t show up soon and kiss her some more she was going to be rather cross with him.

    A quick scene set a few days after Emma and Mr. Knightley's engagement. Inspired by the 2020 film.

    Summary

    Wild was an enigma for many reasons, with the most noticeable being his hero's title. Or rather, lack thereof. That was not to say that he didn't deserve to hold the title of hero, for he was just as courageous as the other 'heroes.' No, Wild lacked a title on account of the fact that his purpose had yet to be fulfilled.

    Unlike the other heroes, Wild hadn't defeated a great evil, or saved a princess, or even overcome some personal hardship. He was a kid, whisked away from his land in the middle of his knight training. After just under a year of traveling with the heroes from his story books, Wild was pulled back to his own Hyrule to finally earn his name.

    Months passed by without word on his condition, with hope of Wild's return slowly shrinking in the hearts of the other heroes. And once all hope had faded away, they found themselves in a Hyrule of ruin.

    And Wild’s name began to make sense.

    He loves with a passion that bleeds into his actions, never his words. You can see it in how he doesn’t make a sound. How he’s seemingly on the cusp, tethering dangerously on the knife’s edge. You’re nothing but a stranger to him and yet he looks at you like you’re the most precious thing in the world.

    That woman is lucky, you think—to be loved by someone as devastatingly devoted as Artem Wing.

    Or, a pretty man with a white-collar job takes you back home with him for the night. You certainly don’t regret the experience.

    “Take me with you. Please.”

    He stares along with an unreadable look – blue eyes shining in the dark as he watches you clutch onto the fabric of his shirt.

    “If you come with me, you’ll never be able to go back,” he tells you up front. “You okay with that?”

    In hindsight, maybe running away with a complete stranger isn’t far up in the best decisions you’ve made in life – archons know you’ve only made a few of those. Just because he showed you an ounce of kindness, doesn’t mean he’s a good person.

    Still, the answer comes to you quite easily.

    Or, you’re a hostess that’s drowning in debt, and Ajax is a man with too many secrets to keep. Making a clean break for it isn’t as easy as you’d hoped.

But the awareness does nothing to alleviate the flickers of jealousy that ripple across his entire being, and the best he can do is grit his teeth and remind himself that he has absolutely no right to be jealous in the first place.

    He’s an idol. She’s his producer.

    And that’s all there is to it!

    These sorry excuses for comrades, however, don’t seem to harbor the same sentiments!

    Or, Teyvat’s most charming idol is too stubborn to admit he has a crush on their producer, and the entire agency is fed up.
