    Summary

    Hitoshi Shinsou made it to Class 2-A. He’s got a roof over his head, a semi-functional phone, a mentor who definitely has a favorite student, and a meal plan that heavily relies on hoarded cafeteria breads rolls. Life is good.

    Well, good enough, until he’s hit with the harsh reality that being a hero-in-training means some of your classmates are way too invested in your business.
    Between fake hostage drills, drama, a lot of cooking, and Bakugou’s explosive antics, Hitoshi's got his hands full trying to hold his Perfect Life™ together.

    Good thing he’s got a team that’s as dramatic as they are effective and at least, they’ll have his back when he inevitably makes things worse for himself.

    Summary

    It has been a very long time since Astarion has cared for another living soul outside of his own. What good would it have done him, in the face of Cazador?

    But then he finally tasted freedom again—and then there was Tav.

    After two centuries of pure shit, of torture and existing as the barest sliver of a person, Astarion began to remember what it felt like to care.

     

    (Or, Tav teaches Astarion how to be selfless.)

    Summary

    Your fingers brush over the pages of the open sketchbook in your lap, a charcoal stick held in your other hand. You flick it over your knuckles, tounging at the back of your teeth as you allow your wrist to move with your flowing thoughts.

    You think of Astarion’s words from the first time you had caught him gazing into that broken mirror, fresh on your mind even if it feels like it’s been ages since you’d heard them.

     

    “I want to know what the world sees when it looks at me. What you see.”

     

    (Or, you draw Astarion to show him what he looks like.)

    Summary

    He’s so engrossed in the drama of some young couple arguing outside the bank (there’s lots of indiscernible shouting and dramatic handwaving and a better person than Damien probably wouldn’t find the image of a man cringing under the purse assault of a girl half his size quite so funny) that he barely notices when two people step out of the stairwell behind him.

    Until he hears an older woman’s voice, hushed and exasperated, hiss, “Hurry up and find your stupid book so we can get back on the road. I told Janice we’d be back in town by three.”

    Damien freezes, hands crinkling the pages of his book, neck going so stiff he couldn’t have looked away from the window if he tried. His heart starts to beat so rapidly that he’s certain it’s going to fly out of his chest and splat against the glass, and he has to close his eyes to avoid feeling faint. Because he knows that voice.

    It’s his mother’s voice.
