Summary
"We're going on a road trip."
Hinata stands bleary-eyed in the middle of the bedroom, watching as Kageyama bustles around the room, throwing things into two duffel bags, one for each of them. He rubs at his eyes.
"We're… what?"
"Road trip," Kageyama repeats. "We're going on one for our anniversary. Today. Help me pack, what are you just standing there looking dumb for?"

Summary
"What are you looking at?" he snaps.
His traveling companion lets out a high-pitched bark, before settling for wagging its very shaggy tail at him.
And so Felix keeps asking himself—if he is so very much not a dog person, then why is there currently a puppy seated across from him in his carriage?
--
When a stray follows Felix to Gautier territory, he has a hard time convincing Sylvain that he really doesn't like dogs. His feelings for Sylvain, however, are decidedly more complex.

Summary
Inosuke likes it when people tell him he's great at things, because it's true, and they should all acknowledge how powerful he is.
But whenever Tanjiro does it, it makes him feel… weird.
--
ふわふわ (fuwafuwa) can mean several different things:
1. Fluffy; soft.
2. Light and airy.
3. The way Tanjiro makes Inosuke feel. -

Summary
Todoroki: There was a girl trapped inside. He went back to rescue her.
Todoroki: And then he saved my life, too.
Sero: what lol
Uraraka: oh my gosh?????
Kaminari: ?????????
Ashido: ??????????
Iida: How? He was just a civilian!
Todoroki: uh
Todoroki: Science?
Sero: ………
Kaminari: …are you gonna expand on that more or
Todoroki: It was badass.--
Of course the hottest topic of gossip in the Class A group chat after a civilian saves Shouto's life is "Just who was that little green dude and why is Todoroki so fixated on him?" As his loyal former classmates, they cannot rest until they find out.
[Or: Todoroki's POV during the events of "Thanks for Saving Me", uncovered through texts with friends.]

Summary
"Captain," Shouto says, clearing his throat. "You put in a request?"
Midoriya stands in front of the window now, staring out at the endless expanse of stars. He turns when Shouto enters. Like Bakugou, he's dressed casually, in a simple grey shirt that stretches over his chest. His green eyes blink wide as though in surprise, before he smiles. It's sheepish and shy. In front of the window, the vastness of space flung out behind him, he's as stunning as a supernova.
"I did, right," he says. "The, um, the thermostat… seems to be, maybe—"
Bakugou cuts him off with a loud sigh. "Quit wastin' his time and tell him why he's really here."
--
Shouto is a remote crew member of a spaceship—his real body is stationed on a world far away, but his consciousness is housed in a maintenance bot on board the ship. When he manages to attract the attention of the ship's gorgeous captain and fiery first officer, it doesn't take long to discover that the bot's adjustable sensitivity levels have more enjoyable applications than repair work.

Summary
Midoriya Izuku is a university sophomore, a fanboy, quirkless. On the list of things he is not: a hero.
That's why he's more surprised than anyone when he rescues Todoroki Shouto, his favorite pro hero, from a deadly villain attack. His actions fling him into the media spotlight, grabbing the attention of the entire country, including Todoroki himself. But Todoroki actually wants to get to know him past the headlines.
Izuku finds himself living a story straight out of a fairy tale, one where the mysterious, handsome prince is played by the real-life superhero he has always admired. But Izuku is convinced he's the ugly duckling, not the swan; could he ever be remarkable enough to get his happily ever after?

three lovers, two deaths, and his confession by deplore

Summary
Over the course of nine years, Felix and Dimitri grow up, apart, and back together again — Felix's personal growth is very much the same process.
Nowadays, there are a lot of things that Felix can do that he once thought would be impossible for him – for example, he can pray at Glenn’s tombstone without crying; for another, he can ignore Dimitri when he looks like he’s in pain. But he can’t sleep in his old bedroom without recalling things that he’d rather forget about, and he can’t walk by the trophy case full of Glenn’s old accolades without feeling like he is only the shadow of a giant.
People are cremated and buried when they die, and Felix wishes he could do the same for his memories. If only he could burn those old thoughts and throw the ashes to the winds, if only he could molt out of those past feelings and leave the shell of them behind to fly elsewhere, if only he could bleed those remembrances from his body and let it heal from the years of venom circulating through his system – if only he could stop making such meaningless wishes.

Summary
Black Eagles route. Felix travels to Fhirdiad, and Dimitri realizes that the guillotine of inevitability hangs over them in more ways than one.
The pre-morning glow is almost ethereal, and Dimitri unconsciously holds his breath for a few seconds as he considers how Felix looks when the sky behind him is painted in muted pastels. The word beautiful surfaces in Dimitri’s mind, but quickly sinks into a pile of other rejected descriptors – after careful consideration, he settles on devastating.
Dimitri begins to say, “You look like – ”
“You had better not be about to say that I look like Glenn,” Felix cuts in.
“No,” Dimitri says, but he smiles ruefully because Felix does, even if he wasn't thinking it. “You look like Kyphon.”
A few seconds pass. Then, Felix reaches out to grab Dimitri’s hand in between his and pulls Dimitri forward, out of the shadows of the castle and into the light of the rising sun. He looks up at Dimitri, eyes ablaze with an emotion that Dimitri can’t easily describe: something fierce, something prideful, something profoundly sad.
“I don’t think I did,” Felix says, “but perhaps I resemble Kyphon now.”
