Summary
« i did not know i had a dream // i didn't know until i saw you »
perhaps one does not need a word for Love. perhaps it does not matter when you are willing to lay down the world and risk it, if only to embrace him by the moonlight, by the lake.

Summary
just barely after returning to the place she once considered home, faruzan realizes that there is seemingly nothing left for her, neither in the akademya nor in the rest of sumeru. she has outlived her own legacy, or so it seems; the people will read her research and yet turn away when they spot her on and about.
in an attempt to salvage her knowledge's worth, she requests a research opportunity abroad in liyue — and whatever will find her there, faruzan is willing to accept it with open arms.
even if that something is an adeptus who has seen "horrors beyond her mortal understanding," in his very own words.

Summary
lovely; love.
kazuha could recognize it from anywhere. there are unsure glances and a blush so ever-present yet faint enough to seem irrelevant. there is a quickened heartbeat and unsure, soft gasps of breath when the skin touches by a mere chance.
there is a subtle scent that reeks of love, almost, and kazuha will never put a finger on it. he pries not, never does, for it is none of his concern and he cannot make sense of it anyways.
kazuha could swear he loves heizou. but for the first time, his love is not enough.

Summary
"Tim shivers. Coughs again. Blinks rapidly. He doesn’t – maybe can’t – understand what’s happening. Delirium settles in, nestling and burrowing. He just knows one second he’s on the ground and the next he’s sagging against Lucy’s side as she helps him into the shop. She wipes his cheeks with her thumb and buckles him in, safe and sound."

Summary
Wanderer is artificial skin stretched over fake limbs and gaping cavities and he was never meant to be anything else. His mother gave him a heart and then she took it away and that was the first time he realised that not being empty is a privilege reserved for humans and gods and that he will never be able to become either.
—
Horrifyingly, the next thing that comes out of Wanderer’s mouth is, “Where have you been staying then?”
“Here and there,” Kazuha muses, looking up at the sky. The sun is coming down hard and Wanderer can see the bottom of his smile like this. “Why?” he inquires, a teasing glint to his eyes when he meets his gaze again. “Are you offering?”
“No,” Wanderer snips and turns around, successfully ending this conversation by walking away.
Or: Wanderer wants to be human so badly he forcefully dehumanises himself to cope (a tragedy in three parts)

Summary
For Freminet, taking the brunt of what he thought was an acid attack aimed towards Spina di Rosula's boss was nothing more than a split second decision. He wouldn't call himself a hero by any stretch of the imagination, and he wouldn't say he led his life with noble and virtuous intentions either...
...but when the urge to help someone comes to him, he ponders little over it. That's just what a good person would do, and Freminet desperately wants to be a good.
(Still, maybe he should have paid more attention to just what was being splashed.)
OR
Freminet dissolves into water. That really should have been the end of it, but it seems like the ocean wasn't keen on letting him go yet.

Summary
When two stars meet out in space, they either merge together to form something bigger, something new, or shatter into an infinity worth of shiny stardust.
Atsumu figures out early on that he and Sakusa were just like that, two stars colliding headfirst into each other in an ever-expanding universe. He’s still waiting to see if they’re about to become better—or burn out in supernova together.

Summary
Shoto will not say the word coping, for he does not cope, for he has nothing to cope with. It’s just a mechanism.
It brings about the same result, in the end.
((AKA: When Shoto loses mastery of his left side and begins having nightmares, he goes to drastic measures to regain control. He finds some comfort in Izuku, who seems to be going through something of his own.))
