Summary
Since there's so many forced age-regression fics on this site, I decided to do something little different.
Basically: What happens after Charlie's newest trust exercise, age-regression, has finally ended?
The answer: Lucifer is done with this shit.Features: the Sins being good siblings, Lucifer getting hugged a lot, some people learning their lessons and Alastor having an existential crisis.
Based on first three chapters of The_RatDowstare's fic "Whats Wrong Baby~" (which has sadly been deleted)
Warnings for mentions of past non-consensual age regression and drug use. -

Summary
"You're so worked up about winning in life and being on top, number 1, that you skip over defining what that even means. Is an academic genius the winner in a room of world-class athletes? When you think about it, are you truly winning against me if you're the only one invested in the competition?
I mean, sure! In a room of 100 people, get 51 on board and you decide what's black and white. But give me a call when you finish probing half of 8 billion people about their life philosophy.
And between you and me, Kiyotaka. If you set your finish line according to other people's wishes, you've already thrown in the towel. You see, unlike the rest of our peers here, I'm not looking to peak in this Highschool. What about you?"
[A crossover between Classroom of the Elite and Assassination Classroom post-Koro-sensei death, featuring an original character and returning ones. All in hopes of a slightly different approach and feel to a COTE Story compared to most Kiyotaka 2.0 ones. ]

The School for Good and Evil: Twisted Fates by Wet_Water_91
Fandoms: The School for Good and Evil - Soman Chainani

Summary
Sophie is everything a princess of Good should be—golden-haired, charming, and raised on dreams of fairy-tale endings. Agatha, sharp as a knife and cloaked in shadows, is the kind of girl villains are made of.
But the School for Good and Evil has never made a mistake. It doesn’t care what the villagers whisper. It doesn’t care what the girls believe. It sees past masks, beyond appearances, and straight to the heart's hidden truth.
That's why Sophie belongs in Evil. That's why Agatha belongs in Good.
But what if their story was never that simple?
What if Sophie’s kindness wasn’t just for show? What if Agatha’s anger wasn’t a shield, but a weapon? The rules have always been absolute—one for Good, one for Evil. The mirrors don’t lie. The towers don’t falter.
Yet as their destinies unfold behind the towering doors, an impossible possibility takes shape:
What if the School was wrong all along?
