    “We’ll need an extra room.”
    “For what?” He paused, looking at her as if she’d grown a second head.

    Summary

    Nedzu expected a lot of things to happen on that day. All for One returning from death to blackmail him into enrolling his children - and almost three dozen of their friends, most of them related to various supervillains - into the UA and organizing a hyper-realistic (and publically transmitted) wargame between them and the Hero Course was certainly not on the list.

    From then on, the chaos reigns supreme, and Japan is forever changed.

    Summary

    ...In one timeline, Nooroo would have been absolutely correct and a life of control and enslavement would have awaited him. But in this timeline, things were different.

    “No,” Gabriel Agreste finally breathes out. “It’s not worth it.”

    ------------

    In one timeline, Paris had been terrorized by black butterflies swooping down at a moment’s notice. In one timeline it would love the little white ones. In one timeline it would shudder in horror at the phrase ‘Dark Wings Rise’ and in one it would learn to praise it.

    For want of a simple horseshoe nail, Gabriel chose not to become Hawkmoth and put his family first. But Paris still needs someone to use the Butterfly Miraculous. If only this time to save it.

    Marinette has no idea what she's in for, but even without Lady Luck on her side she'll find a way to save Paris.

    Somewhat inspired by Nymph and the Corrupted Miraculous.

    Tired of the burden of fame, Ash Ketchum, Monarch of the World, decides to disappear into a whole new adventure in the isolated region of Paldea. Eager to participate in the region's famous "Treasure Hunt," Ash must first attend Scarlet Academy and its rigorous Battle School, but unknown to our hero, he is wandering right in to yet another world crisis...but that's nothing new.

    And thus, Ash Ketchum finds himself on a new adventure; exploring rich landscapes, collecting badges, and uncovering hidden treasures and secrets alongside his friends—new and old. His journey will be a test of his skills, hidden abilities, and also deepen his connections with his companions, particularly a girl with honey-gold hair whose presence becomes increasingly significant to our young champion...

    Summary

    It's been two years since Juliana had left Kitakami. She quelled the mighty titans with Arven, defeated Team Star with Penny, and even became a Paldean champion throughout the years alongside Nemona. And now, Director Clavell presented her with a new adventure: an early "trial run" of the Blueberry exchange program. As Juliana settles into her life at the Blueberry dorms, she's faced with new, familiar, and hauntingly different faces. What will she do about Kieran, who had a 180 in his personality in their time apart? And how does she even feel about Kieran, anyway?
