    Summary

    In the crappy movies Jinx insists on watching, he watches friends make the mistake they’re making. And he thinks it stupid, how it affects them the way these movies portray. How the dramatic flairs and the angry confessions under angrier rains only make him burst out laughing, hands slapping down his knees in disbelief, for their relationship was as unaffected as could be by the activities they engaged in from time to time.

    It took him a minute, maybe a few, but at some point he couldn’t escape it any longer. Ekko wanted Jinx. He looked for her in every person he met, desperate and nitpicky. They were never half of her.

    The realization was hard, a quick blow to the gut, sharp and unforgiving, leaving a bruise he didn’t know how to tend to. A bruise that remained tender no matter how much time had passed. And every interaction with Jinx became a cruel finger, pushing down on his never-healing wound.

    Ekko was in shambles.

    Ekko was in love.

    Friends with benefits timebomb, where Ekko can't help but want more.

    Summary

    And despite that... Kaveh is… “Lovesick?”

    Kaveh’s hands move to cover his face, palms muffling his words as he mutters, “It’s—not quite like that.”

    “Well, the ‘sick’ aspect is accurate, at least.”

    “No shit,” Kaveh snorts. “The ‘love’ component, though—it’s, uh—”

    “You’re not in love?”

    He coughs. “The greenhouse in my lungs begs to differ. I—it’s more that my body is mourning a love it knows can’t ever be requited.”

    For all the negative feelings Alhaitham’s encountered over the past twelve hours, the sensation that creeps through him now is…

    Unfamiliar.

    Unknowable.

    Despite all the languages he’s fluent in, Alhaitham is unable to conjure a word or phrase with which he can immediately label it. He just knows that whatever this feeling is, it’s unbelievably unpleasant. Like his body is stationary, yet his internal organs are plummeting into the Abyss.

    “You love someone who doesn’t love you back?” he asks after a moment.

    Kaveh has Hanahaki. That much is known. But who he loves, and whether Alhaitham will be able to save him, is up in the air.

    Summary

    Kaveh’s face is bright, young, flushed, freckled, happy. He’s wearing an Akademiya uniform and is as tall as the last time Alhaitham saw him (fifteen minutes ago) which means he’s an inch or two shorter than the last time Alhaitham saw him, because the uniform boots are heeled. He’s staring at Alhaitham with the aforementioned flush spreading like dye over the silk of his cheeks.

    “Kaveh,” Alhaitham says. “Don’t freak out. I believe I’ve been displaced in time.”

    Summary

    “Honestly Deku, I really couldn’t care less that you have a girlfriend.”

    Silence fell upon the room as Izuku gave him a look he couldn’t quite decipher. “...What are you trying to say?” Izuku finally questioned after several moments, carefully.

    Shit.

    Katsuki has been pining for years after Izuku. He's softened up a bit, bankrolled a hero suit for the nerd, and gives lectures at UA whenever Izuku requests it. So when what he thought was a dream they shared doesn't pan out like he'd planned, life goes in a direction Katsuki never would've expected.

    A story told over five acts which leans heavily into the pain of three characters, with Katsuki's anguish being the focal-point. The happy ending and eventual comfort to the hurt exists for everyone, no matter how bleak things may seem at times, but this story will be gut-wrenching to read most of the chapters. If you aren't at least a bit of a masochist, this fic is probably not for you. You have been warned.

    Oh, and the title of the fic is in part inspired by the song Scorpio Rising by Soccer Mommy, and also in part by, well, astrology.

    xoxo, enjoy :)
