Summary
Osamu Dazai is in his second year of highschool, attending the 'oh so prestigious' Imperial Alchemist Academy of the written arts.
He knows what he wants to be, Dazai wants to be a writer.
But before he can, he has to leap over the obstacles of what society views as acceptable and horrible. Dazai's teetering on a very thin line.
So what does the school year's new, super hot but also extremely captivating and smart teacher have to do with that?
Well, he might just be the object in Dazai's life that makes him feel like he's accepted by another.

"Not long ago I learned from a certain person in considerable detail about the worthlessness of your character. All the same, it is you who have given me strength, you who have put the rainbow of revolution in my breast. It is you who have given an object to my life."

Summary
Lana picks up the remote and turns the television on. They watch this reality show about people who get attacked by animals and survive. This one idiot asshole brought it on himself, no ifs, ands, or buts about it. He stood on his cabin’s back porch and fed the bears straight from his hand.
When Lana gets up to use the bathroom, Addy pinches the rolled bill between her fingers and snorts a line after all. Whatever it is— coke or crank, or crushed up Ritalin —sparkles through her synapses and kicks her heart rate up into wild hare overdrive.
She’s not sure which part of this story feels more familiar. The moronic man tempting fate with the steak in his hand, or the grizzly bear shredding his arm to ribbons.

Summary
When Dean finds Castiel standing on the wrong side of the bridge railing in the pouring rain, he takes him home. He finds himself caring for the man as a replacement for his younger brother, but when Cas gradually reveals what led him to contemplate suicide Dean realises that they can't ignore his past, and takes steps to help Cas heal and move on. As Dean becomes more aware of how our pasts can affect us, and as his old trauma resurfaces, he – albeit reluctantly - starts to open up to Cas about his own past. What starts out as a friendship born of loneliness and desperation grows into something more as they are drawn closer to each other over time, and slowly help each other to mend.
(The tags probably make this sound more depressing than it's going to be.)

With almost two whole years at her back, Agent 3 has finally returned to Inkopolis. To her home, her family and her friends, to Marie.
What she failed to account for, was the fact that she may not be able to repair the damage she left behind her - and the gaps in her memory that no one seems willing to fill for her don't do her any favors, either.

“Really, Bugsy? You’re gonna fire me?”
“I don’t need a partner who doesn’t care for the citizens.”
“At least I get things done. I don’t know what the guardian ever saw in you but you’re not good enough for the Ladybug Miraculous. Don’t come crying to me if an akuma manages to kick your incompetent overworked butt!”
“You may be the better fighter, but you’re hardly a hero. Maybe this is why you weren’t the one given the Ladybug Miraculous. If I were the guardian, I wouldn’t trust someone as callous as you with the power to save the day.”

Summary
A boy and a girl. One’s lived life growing up in the dark underworld of a cruel and unrelenting world, and the other, while living in a world of modern comforts, has been tested in more unseen ways.

“Love takes off masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within.” –James Baldwin
“Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep burning and unquenchable.” –Bruce Lee
