    Summary

    It’s fascinating how clear his memory remains of what was only just a few short days hundreds of years ago.

    The boy’s greeting cuts off as his jaw drops and his eyes grow wide. The confusion that reads on his face disappears in an instant.

    “Mister…Hubert?”

    “Hello, Rafal.”

    Summary

    The room is quiet save for their skin meeting, their harsh breathing, and the drone of the TV they’ve left to play alone in the other room.

    He wonders if Badeni hears it too. The program they’ve left to play without them. A special on the stars. Something they’d planned to watch as they ate dinner on a plain and boring weekend.

    Papa knows about Anya…about her powers. About her lies.

    Papa knows and…

    And he didn’t come.

    Summary

    Toshinori wakes up, hears the news, and decides to believe the stranger sitting at his bedside.

    Not because what he hears is necessarily believable but because the man, Tsukauchi Naomosa, does not seem like one to lie.

    Summary

    It happens so fast there’s nothing Izuku can do.

    It’s not a villain attack, misfired quirk, or training accident. It’s just him, tripping over his own two feet.

    Summary

    “Don’t touch him, Toshinori!! I need you here!!”

    Recovery Girl’s command is an almost screech, barely audible against the absolute chaos that fills the room.

    Hizashi makes the mistake of looking at the man.

    All Might is a ghost. Pearly white, his skin is a canvas for which strokes of anguish and rage can be painted.

    Hizashi tears his eyes away, back to the wailing child on the bed.

    Summary

    Izuku’s finally an up-and-coming hero, he’s taking Japan and its hero rankings by storm. Almost every eye is on him, watching as he jumps and then soars into his long-awaited, albeit surprising, return. But more than anything else, he’s just turned twenty-five—he’s supposed to be better than this.

    He’s supposed to be so much more than a needy little kid.

    Summary

    Closing the gap with an almost mad dash, the damage becomes defined. No longer the vague assumption he'd made from a distance, Toshinori can now see every single shade of purple that smears across swollen, misshapen limbs. He can see where blood has run across Young Bakugou's brow, smeared from his parted lips, and how it's matted, clumped, and knotted into the back of Izuku's hair.

    He can see everything in full, horrific detail.

    Everything, except the rise and fall of their chests.

    Summary

    "...He's crying, Toshi."

    A hitched, broken, poorly stifled sob enters the room as if finally given permission, and suddenly, Toshinori is wide awake.

    (Nightmares are frequent visitors to their home. The solution? A well-practiced routine that starts, as always, with Izuku slipping between the covers of their bed.)

    Summary

    “We’re tied together by something thicker than blood—the bond of one for all.”

     

    So once that bond is gone...


    Toshinori thinks he knows what's plaguing his hero prodigy. It's why he's doing everything in his power to fix it.

    Everything except properly talking to him.

    Summary

    He wanted to see her.

    He always did. He’d gotten used to waking up on time for school each morning because despite everything else, Mitsumi was there. But this feeling, this want, was new, or a revelation of what had always been. A culmination of everything he’d felt before.

    Summary

    He’s so happy, that a little voice that still lives in his past can only ever say that it’s wrong.

    “Shima-kun.”

    She squeezes his hand, and draws his attention down, out of the storming clouds blowing into his head. There’s nothing for her to say, only to look at him with a gentle smile. She must have noticed, she’s gotten better at doing so, the way he so easily gets lost in his own thoughts, both good and bad.

    He squeezes back and answers.

    “Mitsumi-chan.”

    If it meant he could give to them all that the world had taken - all that they truly deserved - Ernst would give everything he possibly could.

    Summary

    "Zidane has finally stopped his standoffish position. He faces the group but keeps his head down, as if in contemplation. Though that optimistic interpretation is wiped away as Zidane reaches up and rubs around his collar. The usual ribbon there is loose, the lace rumpled and hanging open. Yet, such minor details barely matter when, for the first time since the battle with that monstrous worm in the sand, Steiner finally hears Zidane speak.

    A sword dragging across worn-down broken cobble stones. A fine old man dying of a heavy wet cough. A criminal begging beneath the threads of a tightening noose.

    Such are the images that flash before Steiner’s eyes as Zidane’s voice croaks."

    Summary

    The last thing Miles remembers prior to shaking himself off snow-dusted concrete is the taunting red sign of a flammable gas tank and Peter's costumed hand tossing him off Rhino's back. 

    It's enough to have him rolling to his feet and shouting for his older friend, "Pete!?"

    Somehow, Quina is making less sense than usual. Whether that’s him or the concussion Zidane can’t tell for sure. All he knows is no one’s coming for them. That part, at least, he knows for sure...
