Summary
"He was here to gather her things, things she would need but couldn't retrieve. Yes, someone had to do it. He certainly was not here for an excuse to see her again. Nope. Definitely not here for something to return to her with. He grabbed a handful of clean clothes and shuddered when it released a menagerie of scents. A reason to return to her.
Return to her."
Takizawa visits Akira's apartment after Amon retrieves Maris Stella. Loose sequel to "This Time," and part of a canon-compliant series.

Summary
"He revealed himself far up the trail, sporting a far-too-trendy-looking pair of espadrilles and track pants, marching more conspicuously than he needed to. She felt patronized by this clear attempt to not spook her. Though, to be fair, his ghastly appearance stalking in and out of the shadows would be an unsettling visage for even the most seasoned investigator. The thought that he was aware of his own arresting appearance wrenched her heart.
“Takizawa…” her voice was barely a whisper carried to him by the wind."
Akira and Seidou meet in the privacy of the forest, post Dragon War.

Summary
"He brought his fingertips to his mouth to gnaw-- but Akira closed the distance and snatched his wrist. He resisted at first but was stunned by the proximity of her body, the closeness. Her delicate fingers chilled, soothing his skin, her expression unreadable but looking at him in a way that was... Definitely not insignificant..."
Takizawa makes one last stop, to bid goodbye to a sleeping Mado. If only she would have stayed asleep.
Takes place after events of Ch 118 ("Good News"), written as a parallel to the opening scene of Ch 122 ("At What Time?") where Touka talks virginity with Kaneki.Series

Summary
Tomura Shigaraki finds himself bleeding out in an alley after a particularly nasty fight- and you find him there, too.
Can you really fall for someone who's so unlike you, someone so dangerous, while also trying to play it safe and lead a normal life? Can he think of this as more than a side quest and a tool to benefit himself?
A romance with the nation's most notorious leader of a crime organization? It's more likely than you think.

OC with weak water gun quirk going to med school. Need to reread! I remember some key moments but I want to reread this before diving into the now-finished sequel
Lovely on the reread. Spoiler = Shig goes to America with OC

Summary
An AU of Baldur's Gate, where Rolan ascends to power as the Dark Prince to the kingdom of Waldemar over which he now rules with a court made up of undead, fiends, his fellow infernal-touched, and more.. As unrest continued to grow, the kingdom of Sivailon received a proposition from the Dark Prince for the hand of their blessed princess, Tav, so that she may rule at his side. With the two kingdoms just a few short days' of travel away from each other's borders and such an arrangement helping to reaffirm the kingdoms' past alliance, the nobility of Sivailon would have been fools to say no? Tav now must wed the man that has many rumors about him and many secrets. Will he eat her heart like she was warned? or will this Co-rulership lead to love?

Summary
She doesn't know his real name. Doesn't know anything about him really. But she's been watching him for months. He dominates at the Arcade. He holds stuff weird. He's withdrawn and kinda shady, with a malice in his eyes that scares her. He reminds her of a wounded animal. There are so many things about him she's noticed, and she's crushing. Big time.
He's never acknowledged her existence, until today.
She should have known that being acknowledged by him wouldn't turn out well.
Or: Pre-season 1 Shigaraki is spending a lot of time at an Arcade, picks up a fangirl without realizing it, and once he shows her a glimpse of what he's really like, her innocent crush corrupts into an unhealthy obsession that spirals out of control. A dark romance that gets worse before it gets better.

This I can already tell is GUARANTEED to be a classic. Colorful writing, dynamic OC, as easy to gobble down as a cheeseburger and nutritious as a power bowl yeeeheehee!
Ch 18-21 sewer scene dark as hell in a morbidly satisfying way
Author notes are a really helpful guide to the arcs
Ch34 holy shit the relief to the tension
Ch40 end of part 1
Ch50 the spice!!Awaiting ch63

See Ready Player 2 [[REMASTERED]]
Very fun! I suspect OC has a rat quirk. Hints and plot are dropping bit by bit. Ch19 they finally meet!
