Summary
Shouta and Hitoshi sat in companionable silence as the kettle boiled on the stove, trying and failing to shake off the dregs of their long night.
Hitoshi stared listlessly at his art history essay. In place of a staple, the pages were held together with a holographic unicorn sticker. He slid the packet into his backpack before flopping backwards in his chair, shading his eyes with his arm. Shouta opened his mouth to reprimand him about leaning his chair on two legs, but opted to rest his head on his arms instead.
Just for a moment.
Just until the kettle boils…
Little did either of them know, they had forgotten to light the stovetop.

AKA Aizawa gets a late start to an otherwise normal day. Why is everyone looking at him like that? Does he have something on his face? -

Summary
Seven towns, seven noticeboards in one of the most underserved and monster-infested regions on the continent, and not a single damn contract to be seen. Every alderman had the same response. Some asshole breezed through right before Lambert, taking every damn contract for himself. With the harvest season drawing to a close, there should have been a bounty of monsters to slay to get him through the winter. Instead, the townsfolk eyed him warily, unsubtly urging him to pass through rather than rest under a real roof for once. Not that he had the coin to spare.
Underneath the heavy scent of rain and mud, he caught the barest whiff of wood smoke.
The hunt was on.AKA: Lambert and Aiden's first meeting, their even-more-disastrous second meeting, and what comes after ;) Oh, and a magic cat. Wait, what?

Summary
Though he would never tell them, Shouta enjoyed spending the evenings before patrol watching over his students. With unfortunate regularity, he had to put a stop to fights, elaborate pranks, and crimes against cookware, but just seeing them be kids soothed a part of him often left unsettled.
“Oi! Did you just put that pot down on the cutting board? Does cross-contamination mean nothing to you, Raccoon Eyes!?”
He continued to let them think he only tolerated their antics, because some nights his patience wore thin.

Summary
Geralt would probably prefer he went to bed and left him to his hunting. Jaskier would prefer it as well. But he also preferred to sleep knowing his witcher was safe at his side. He would get no rest at all if he was fretting over the possibility of finding him unconscious under a pile of rubble knocked loose by the griffon he was sent to hunt. Or half-frozen and septic in some swamp after being ambushed by a particularly nasty water hag. Or tied to a tree in his skivvies by a jilted succubus. Or…
~~~~
Or, Geralt went out on a contract and didn't make it back by the time the tavern closed. It's up to Jaskier to find out where his dear witcher went. Shenanigans ensue.

Summary
A fine dusting of chalk and charcoal coated his hands and chest from countless attempts to correct his blasted diagrams, a layer of grime and dried sweat sitting heavily on his skin. He ran shaking fingers over the bead of force hidden amongst his earrings and the nightshade capsule sewn into his shirt collar. The elven chain shirt sandwiched between his outer and undershirt rattled softly as he moved.
Resigning himself to another restless night, he stared up at the deep maroon canopy overhead.Essek dreamt of the Nein.
AKA Essek tugs on the strings of fate a little too hard and gives both himself and the Nein a bit of perspective as a result.

Summary
“Taking care of somebody else made me feel good. Like discovering you’re more than you thought you were. More even than you hoped to be.” - Bette Greene
In another world, Chisaki Kai is a ruthless, cruel man who stops at nothing to rid the world of quirks. In this one, however, he draws lines: one being Eri. He cares for her, treats her like his own daughter. And for his precious daughter, he needs somebody to help care for her, somebody who isn’t one of the Eight Bullets or a member of the Yakuza.
Enter one Midoriya Izuku: quirkless, protective, and the perfect candidate to be her babysitter. Now if only Chisaki could just stop worrying about the boy, too, that would be great. (No, Chronostasis, he does not have ‘paternal instincts,’ thank you very much!)
Or: Midoriya Izuku (accidentally) turns the Yakuza into the

Summary
Midoriya Izuku is having a terrible day. He’s told to take a swan dive off of a roof, nearly suffocated by a villain, told he couldn’t be a hero by his favorite hero of all people - and all of that’s before he gets kidnapped by a giant, tentacled ship flying through the sky and has a worm put into his brain alongside a hero who tried to save him.
What in the hell is a quirkless kid supposed to do in this situation? The only thing he can, he supposes - try his best.
OR: A Baldur's Gate 3/My Hero Academia crossover wherein Midoriya and Aizawa are taken by the Mind Flayer ship as it attempts to flee the githyanki and both wind up in the middle of a plot concocted by an evil, terrifying cult. Midoriya wants to help, Aizawa wants Midoriya to stop running headfirst into danger, and everyone who meets them wants to know what the hell an All Might is.

Summary
The Hero Public Safety Commission implements a new publicity stunt meant to drum up some good PR. Heroes and civilians will get anonymously paired up as pen pals for a few months. Fans get to talk to heroes, and the HPSC gets to say their heroes are down-to-earth and involved with the people. It’s a win-win. All Might doesn’t need the publicity, but he feels like it’s a good opportunity nonetheless, so he enrolls in the event.
Problem is, All Might’s pen pal writes some pretty concerning stuff. He’s sure the kid is being bullied. And even worse… the ‘anonymous’ person on the other side begins to sound a lot like a certain successor of his. He’s going to get to the bottom of this. And if he finds out somebody’s hurt a single hair on his student’s head? Well… he’s the number one hero for a reason.
(AKA: the dadmight-centric Aldera Faces Consequences fic I’ve always wanted to write.)

Summary
The imperial dragons are a close-kept secret. Only a select few know of the mythical blood that flows through the royal family’s lineage, and even fewer know of the power it grants them in times of need.
When Jinshi finds himself almost assassinated, he is forced to call on such power— but it leaves him delirious, bleeding, and terrifyingly vulnerable. So he flees to the one person he knows he can trust with his life more than anyone.
Maomao, meanwhile, catches a weird snake outside her house.
