    Summary

    It’s a modest two-bedroom in the western suburbs, far enough from the bustling crowds to be affordable but still counting, technically, as Tokyo. They’re noisy before they sleep but quiet when they rise, shuffling mutedly out of the door for joint morning runs before bursting back into the apartment for joint morning showers. Shouyou cooks breakfast while Kageyama packs their lunch and gym bags, and they never share a goodbye kiss because they always leave together.

    It’s warm and cozy and disgustingly domestic, and it’s probably everything Shouyou’s ever dreamed of.

    Except, Kenma thinks irately, Kageyama doesn’t actually live here.

    ===

    Shouyou moves in with Kenma when he ends up in Tokyo for college. Kenma subsequently realizes that half the things in Shouyou’s boxes are actually Kageyama’s because he should have fucking known.

    Summary

    When a villain sends Izuku and Katsuki hundreds of years into the past, their only mode of escape relies on solving an impossible riddle: what is the beauty of all life?

    Alone, quirkless, and separated from everything they know, Izuku and Katsuki have to work together and embrace their unspoken love and devotion towards one another if they ever hope to return home.

    ***

    "What if it takes us like… ten years to get back? D'you ever worry about that?"

     

    What if we never get back?

     

    "'Course I do, nerd." Kacchan says it with more fondness in his voice than Izuku knew him capable. "And if we're gonna be stuck here a while, maybe we should start living our lives… here."

    Summary

    His assailant leaps at him while he's distracted. Izuku shoves him on instinct, and the stranger shrieks when he hits the ground. He tries to roll over. There’s a vegetable knife sticking out of his back.

    “Fuck,” says Izuku. “Fuck, oh god, I killed someone.”

    (Izuku does have a quirk - it's the power to see when someone has unhealthy attachment issues and obsessive tendencies. That would explain why some of his classmates seem a little off.

    Except Kacchan, probably. Kacchan's always been dangerous.)

    Summary

    Matt (short temper, disturbing fixation on Kylo Ren, snores) and Techie (night terrors, excessive jumpiness, "creepy" eyes) have both become notorious for driving their bunkmates to request a room change. General Hux is tired of processing the admin work they create. He assigns them to bunk together. They’ll either deal with it or lose their jobs.

    Summary

    I have wondered if there be witches in the world - although I cannot believe they come among us now.
    -John Proctor, The Crucible

    John Proctor doesn't know shit. There are clearly witches in this world. I know because I've seen them.
    -Steve Harrington, essay for Mrs. Moore's English class
