    Summary

    Leorio mulls over the words in his head. Thinks extra carefully because he's sure he knows what's happening, and while he was right that, if what he suspects is true, Kurapika has certainly been through worse, this is still more than either of them can handle. It's huge and complicated and tugs at something warm and hopeful in his chest that he'd rather squash down and not think about.

    Summary

    Kurapika does not mean to crash into the tall, handsome doctor’s office through an interdimensional portal from a vastly different universe— but things, generally, do not tend to work out for Kurapika in a way that he wants. Case in point: the sudden lurch in time and space, the ungraceful landing on both hands and knees, the doctor standing in front of him, gaping.

    *

    In which Kurapika is an interdimensional fugitive who keeps coming back to a doctor in New York City.

    Summary

    Greed Island. “The World’s Playground.” That hotbed of excess, beauty, and debauchery, the island where the rules are merely suggestions. Hedonism runs the day as tourists flock to its casinos, clubs, amusement parks, and pristine beaches and forests. And keeping the revelers safe are the brave members of the GISD - the Greed Island Safety Department.

    Following the devastating loss of his previous firehouse, loose-cannon Kurapika isn’t sure he ever wants to go into the field again. But when his long-suffering brother, Pairo, decides they need a change, they trade in their winter coats and gloves for shorts and swimsuits and join the esteemed crew of House 36 (or, in Pairo’s case, serve as their eyes in the sky as a dispatcher). There, they meet a cast of characters as colorful as their new home’s flora and fauna.

    Kurapika is only looking for a job. He doesn’t need - or want - a new family. He’s sure his new House and a brash, brilliant, beautiful paramedic just might turn his entire demolished world upside down.

    Or it could put him back together again.

    Summary

    "This kid... What's his name?"

    "Kurapika. Kurapika Kurta."

    "Right. And why do you believe he belongs in our academy?"

    "Well—I mean, for one, he's wanted by the police for murder."

    -

    Children of government and criminal organizations from all over the world gather under the earth of San Francisco to attend the deadliest academy in the world. All of them are learning one thing: how to kill.

    It's 1987, and compared to being out on the streets—hungry, homeless, and wanted for murder—disillusioned Kurapika thinks joining a school for assassins is a rational choice.

    (It's not a rational choice. In the slightest.)

    Surrounded by some of the most dangerous people in the world, Kurapika seeks something that will quell the rage inside him. Maybe a little vengeance will do the trick—vengeance on the group of people who ruined his life and everything good in it.

    Blood will spill.

    At least he has his friends. If he's going to die, he might as well have something to die for.

    -

    Heavily inspired by Deadly Class

    Summary

    "In that moment, it was as though time had slowed down- Leorio gave a strangled shout as the mer flung themself towards him, and his eyes caught all the little details of their face as his briefcase skittered across the rocks and his supplies went flying: the gemstone earring swaying from their earfin, dual ruby irises burning in fury, razor-sharp fangs gnashing threateningly, the large gash across their abdomen oozing a sickening red-wine. It was terrifying, but also jaw-dropping in a way that thunderstorms at the beach were, and Leorio would have run without a second thought.

    Would have, if their face didn’t contort into something of horrible pain- didn’t make that incredibly human noise of agony."
