Bookmarker's Notes
Here is a little spoiler when it comes to being in love with someone: You are always at the beginning.
And, if you are very, very lucky, you will forever continue to always be at the beginning.I’m made up of the people who care for me. I’m me because of the little and big things that people do for me. I’m the way I am because there are people that make my life worth living the way I do.
And right now, I’m thinking—if anyone can figure it out, if anyone has figured out a way to build a moment, a feeling, into a place meant for coming home, it’s you. It doesn’t matter if it’s a coffeemaker or borrowed keys to your apartment or your arms. It’s you.
Love as an emotion comes easily when it’s right; love as an act, though—that requires understanding. Before communication, before talking about anything, it’s not so much loving that you have to have figured out as it is understanding. Yourself, what you want, where you want to be with the other person. All that before you can understand them. And then you have to make the call: do we have enough me right now to be an us? Because what good are the words you’re saying, the things you’re articulating, the declarations you’re making, when you’re not even seeing eye to eye with your own thoughts?
It’s like—Like there’s a thread that connects you guys, except you were the one who tied it between yourselves. That’s love, right, the ability to make that thread? A kind of superpowered ability? Magic, maybe?
Love, maybe, even after all this time. And if not that, love before love. Because that might have always been the foundation of what they are: the loving before loving, the inevitability of falling in love, the rightness of being together and being there for each other. Except with and on purpose this time, even more by choice than it already was before.
And maybe that’s the strange and beautiful part. Love plus time. Like making bread, or planting flowers before the first frost to wait for the joy of seeing them bloom in late spring.
What is love over years and years, I thought, if not finding your way back to the strangeness and beauty of being remade, as yourselves and as the parts of you that love the other person? What is love if not a neverending beginning?You’re everything I want to be good for.
jeez holy wow the most beautiful testimony to love ever made

Summary
“One last rule,” Hawks says. He looks at Dabi expectantly.
“What?” Dabi grits out.
“No falling in love with me.”
Dabi looks at Hawks batting his lashes, sitting on the couch in his hideous Gucci sweater. Christ, Dabi can’t stop looking at it. It’s a point of public safety that Hawks has a stylist for when he actually needs to leave the house. That sweater could cause car crashes. “I guarantee that won’t be an issue.”
Hawks needs to come out, Dabi needs to promote his debut album, and they make an awful mess of this fake relationship thing.

Summary
Due to a mix-up on our end, your apartment, Takami Keigo, will be shared with another student. Yes it’s two bedrooms, yes we’re sorry. No, there’s nothing we can do about it.
————
The thing about music was this: it gave people ideas. It moved mountains and herds of people; it moved souls and tears from dry eyes. It moved people towards the unthinkable, towards bright futures, towards dark futures. They moved to the underbellies of cities and swayed to the dulcet melodies of dirt-poor musicians.At least, that was what Takami Keigo had been told his entire life. Whatever horrible sounds were coming from his roommate’s room—sounds that said roommate insisted were pure art—were absolutely not music.

Summary
Hawks panics. "Okay, alright, jeez, you caught me, I..." Hawks hesitates, gulps; tumbles forward, "Have no idea who you are." The eyebrow is still raised. "...Sorry?"
Crispy Cream doesn't say anything for a long moment. The mental pressure it creates makes Hawks want to babble, but he manages to hold his tongue this time.
"I can't tell if you're screwing with me or what," Crispy Cream drawls.
"It's the 'or what'," Hawks offers.
Hawks gets hit with an amnesia quirk. Dabi gets begrudgingly involved.

Summary
Bakugou has dimples.
They’re not noticeable. Not by much, not with the way he scowls to hide them. But Kirishima still catches them, the first time he makes Bakugou crack a grin after he trips and fails a new stunt on his skateboard.
When Kirishima sees it—it’s a tiny dip in his cheeks, and one under his chin. They’re out in the sun, and small shadows tuck into his dimples charmingly. He’s grinning wide, boyish and rude and unhinged. He’s laughing, too, and the sound is brash.
Or; Kirishima learning what it really means to yearn.

Summary
Through some freak accident of the universe, Dabi has been invited to compete on The Bachelorette. Have they actually seen his face? Surprisingly yes, and they still want him. For this season they apparently need a ‘bad boy’ to both balance out the hero contestant (why in hell is Hawks involved?) and to trash talk the show in interviews to appeal to audiences who don’t like the scripting. Getting sent on a vacation away from his annoying bandmates to complain and eat as much free food as he wants? Sold.

Summary
Outside, the screech of seagulls mix with the dull roar of the water, as if some dormant beast was sleeping on their doorstep, waiting for the world to turn.
“What is that?” Keigo asks, and Touya quirks an eyebrow.
“The ocean. Haven’t you heard it before?”
(or; the Todorokis own a traditional wagashi shop in a small seaside town. Keigo tackles his problems via sudden, cross-country escape.)

Summary
Touya’s been screaming for someone to validate him his whole life. If he beats Takami — if he scores full marks in an exam or he wins a combat session or he lands higher on the Hero Billboard Chart at his debut — is he finally going to be happy? Is it going to be enough to stop him from feeling so empty all the time, hollowed out and waiting to be filled?
In which Todoroki Touya never fully escapes from under his father’s shadow, but learns to adapt with a little help from the Shiketsu High School guidance counsellor, a lot of introspection, and an unhealthy rivalry with one winged idiot.

"I'm gonna run you over with this truck," Kageyama says, with only half of his usual conviction.
(Because frankly, he's still flabbergasted that Hinata would remember his favorite flavor.)
Or, in which Kageyama and Hinata drive an ice cream truck for a week, the former struggles with a crush, and the latter dares to eat the popsicles without paying.

“This is still the shittiest car I’ve ever seen in my entire life,” is the first thing Satoru says to him after almost a decade of not seeing him.

And it's times like these that Satoru wishes for his mouth to be sliced off clean, either that or for Suguru to be warm again, not the rigid, upright figure glaring at him from the driver’s seat, but the laughing boy with a cigarette dangling from his lips and a hand stuck out the passenger window basking in the hot, sticky Tokyo summer air.
i would like to commit arson after reading this! 10/10.

At age nine, Iwaizumi cuts his hair for the first time. His ponytail lies on the bathroom floor; he feels reminiscent of a dog with a bird in its jaws as he plucks it and brandishes it to his crying mother, like a trophy to be praised or a bug to be proud of. “Look,” he says, as if this is the thing that matters most, “now you won’t complain when you brush it.”

“Leaf mustard?”
Megumi huffs a half-hearted laugh: “Well, let’s see: I owe my life to the very same guy I might have to execute someday, who is also possessed by the strongest curse known to man. And I’m in love with him.”
Inumaki thinks about this and concludes that his advice probably wouldn’t be all that helpful even if he could use the right words. So, instead, he settles for what he knows, and with a dramatic exhale, says, “... Kelp.”
“Couldn’t have said it better myself, man.”
or: Megumi thinks about love & how he got here.

The thing in your chest is more swollen than the bruise on your cheekbone. You wonder what he’d be doing if you hadn’t named yourself Orpheus; hadn’t insisted on him playing Eurydice, circling your fingers around his wrist, dragging him to hell in your wake.
The devil that lives on his face grins; his heart bleeds beside him on the grass, and the heart inside your chest still tries, futilely, to synchronize the rhythm of its pulse to his. Your hands tremble; you are in love with a clock that’s struck zero.
But when his palm finds the nape of your neck; when his thumb curves against the soft flesh between your ear and your jaw; when he whispers your name—an offering, a demand—you do not deny him. You do not deny yourself.
You’d happily be Eurydice, you think, if it meant he’d turn his gaze towards you just one final time: elated, and jovial, and alive, alive, alive.
oh my lordy lord
