    Summary

    This is how it happens, the spark:

    One day on the streets Rei meets an old college friend, who looks at her too-thin face and darting eyes and asks very gently, “Rei-chan, are you okay?” And Rei, who has not seen any of her friends in years and years, gets a stress breakdown right there and then.

    (There is familial solidarity and there is also Being the Eldest. Fuyumi knows conflict diversion and Dabi knows spite, and together what it means is this: mess with Shouto or Natsu or Rei, and you may find your apartment smelling of burning, and all your houseplants mysteriously frozen.)

    (Todoroki Rei leaves her husband's house. There are job interviews, panic attacks, two very unexpected neigbours and one Midoriya Inko. On rebuilding a life, and making sure the kids are alright.)

    Summary

    In which Allen and Kanda grow old together. In a manner of speaking.

    If you caught Allen in the right mood and sufficiently drunk, he’d wax quite poetic on the subject of how God had let them survive because He was a sadist. Allen liked to cite key passages from the Bible and his entire life as evidence.
