    Summary

    He was Nie Huaisang of the Qinghe Nie Sect, brother to Chifeng-zun, Nie Mingjue, one of the heroes of the Sunshot Campaign.

    He was the Young Madame of Lotus Pier and the Yunmeng Jiang Sect, Sandu Shengshou, Jiang Wanyin’s First and Only Wife.

    Nie Huaisang bowed to no one, not even his husband.

    And especially not to spoiled little girls who thought they could have anything they want if they demanded it.

    (Or: During an alliance gathering in Yunmeng, Young Madame Nie Huaisang discovers a threat to his throne.

    And as with all threats, they must be eliminated. Immediately.)

    Summary

    “That boy…” His mother gives him a tired smile. “The music he plays is incredibly sad, isn’t it?”

    Shouto blinks, because Bakugou’s music has never made him feel anything but an inexplicable feeling of freedom. But that’s the beauty of it, he supposes — that the meaning of music lies in the ears of its beholder.

    “I don’t know,” he answers honestly. “But I think it’s beautiful.”

    (or: todoroki shouto is a pianist who had sworn never to play the piano again, and bakugou katsuki is the unpredictable maelstrom of a violinist who turns his monotonous world upside down)

    Summary

    The two of them are standing next to each other—a captive audience to Midoriya and Kota roughhousing—when Kota hauls off and dick punches Midoriya as hard as he can, really not holding anything back. Midoriya goes down with a choked gasp that has Bakugou chuckling fondly beside him.

    When Shouto looks at him, he’s smiling softly. Proud, like Kota just won gold at the science fair or helped a little old lady walk across the street.

    “He’s absolutely your kid, huh?” Shouto asks, voice deceptively neutral. “Like a mini version of you.”

    Bakugou shoves at his shoulder, rolling his eyes while trying not to laugh. “Shut the fuck up, Half ‘n half.”

    *

    Shouto’s been a nanny for the last few years and is well versed in both kids and their high maintenance parents. He’s worried he may have finally met his match in “perpetual problem child” Kota—only to find out they get along perfectly.

    His dad might be a problem, though.

    Summary

    “I was so angry at him,” she whispers. “They wanted me to hate him when they told me he killed my husbands, and I couldn’t. Not hate. But I had plenty of anger.” She had never voiced as much, not even to Jiang Cheng, but in front of Xie Lian the words come easy. How funny, that this is how she spills her heart; to a god in a deserted food stall in a city full of ghosts. How perfectly absurd.

    -

    Jiang Yanli opens a food stall in Ghost City. Xie Lian comes to visit.

    Summary

    “Steve,” Wayne echoes. “This is my home. Eddie’s my boy.” And then he ruffles his hair with one large hand, coarse from years of working with them, in an action that reminds Steve of Hopper.

    “I’m gonna go down there and get my boy back. You’re gonna be my tour guide.” He holds his hand out for the final gun Steve has stashed, which he gives over reluctantly. He finds Wayne remarkably difficult to argue with—wonders if Eddie found the same. “Tour guides don’t need guns. You point at somethin’, I shoot it. Got it, Steve?”

    (Steve knows Eddie’s alive. Wayne’s the only one who believes him. So they team up to save him.)
