The Story The Universe Tells About You by bibliomaniac

Summary
This story will end.
Hank Anderson is not aware of this. He's been alive for eight hundred years, rendered incapable of dying as punishment for a transgression he does not remember committing, and he's long since given up hope of having any kind of ending.
Reaper 800 does not remember what mortal sin he committed. None of the Grim Reapers do. He does not remember being Connor, and he does not remember how he is connected to Hank's own forgotten past. He does not think about endings much at all.
But this story will end, and that starts with them finding each other.

Summary
Connor does wonder if Hank knows the night he killed him was also the first night he really felt alive, even if he did everything he could to hide it, to answer Hank’s questions the way he knew he should. He wonders if Hank knows that it wasn’t just the dying that hurt, but that Hank only did it because he was so sure Connor was just a machine. For all their differences, Connor knows Hank wouldn’t kill someone.
He just didn’t think Connor was someone.
~~
In November 2038, after they went to Eden Club, Hank shot Connor in Riverside Park. Connor has never forgiven him for it.
But against the backdrop of their own regrets and an android murder case that's larger and more complicated than it first seems, Hank and Connor find each other again when Connor is assigned to the DPD by a government workplace placement program for androids.

Summary
Time cannot be borrowed. The concept of borrowing implies that the borrowed item is temporarily removed from where it is borrowed, and that is simply not applicable. Time is not a finite resource, even though with the limited human perception of it, it can easily appear as such; therefore, to borrow it does not detract from the infinity of it, even if one adds the not-exactly-borrowed amount back into the system at the desired place.
What are you?

Hero Analysis for Being a Villain by WarOnCanon

Summary
Dreams were like butterflies; fragile and creatures with wings. Sometimes they flew away, sometimes they were caught, sometimes they were crushed under the boot of another, sometimes they were crushed under your own. Midoriya Izuku had a single butterfly he'd chased his entire life. That butterfly represented being a hero. It represented his hopes and dreams and wishes. And it was crushed.
All Might, the Symbol of Peace. The one who'd crushed Izuku's dreams himself.
Quirkelss was not a butterfly, but a wolf. An obsessive hunter stalking him wherever he went. Killing his butterflies one by one.
Maybe being a hero was overrated anyway.
Maybe being the one who started the fires was better than being the one to put them out.
Maybe it's time Izuku tried starting some fires of his own.(Also posted on Wattpad)
