    Summary

    Jax feels empty and overwhelmed all at the same time after recent events. So he does what he knows best; push it down and out to everyone else. What he didn't expect was for that to backfire in a near deadly way.

    Alternatively,

    It takes almost abstracting and pushing everyone away for Jax to realize that something needs to change.

    Summary

    Silversvale.
    The name of the town conjured several illusions. A haven, a criminal cesspool, a waypoint, a backwater...but Impulse had been there, once or twice, and he thought the best word to describe it was pragmatic. It did away with a lot of what the rest of the continent saw as so commonplace. Not so much as to claim some brandishing flag of equality but...around here, was even was that? It's not like he cared. He was searching for those stone brick walls on the horizon for one reason, and one reason only..
    Tango. His pyre brother. The one he was supposed to have protected all those years ago. Ten long years ago.
    For Tango, well...he's just here with Zed because Zed said so, and wherever the master-smith went, so did he. It had been a peaceful existence, by comparison to his previous decade here on the old continent, where ever grain of sand held it's own kind of cruelty. Zed was seeking work. Skizz was seeking opportunity.
    If any of the above was actually in Silversvale...well that remained to be seen.

    {In which Impulse takes a swing, Skizz takes a shot, Zed takes a hit, and Tango takes things exactly as they've always been.}

    Summary

    Scar had sworn he’d keep that precious little avian from any further harm. Yet what was happening right now? The distance was unbearable, and all Scar wanted was to show him this was all...ok. And right. And if Grian never forgave him, that was his choice, Scar would never try to force him into anything.

    And sure, he’d broken that promise, but that didn’t mean it was suddenly forgotten, swept aside like so much dust.

    He still wanted to keep that promise. Even if he’d broken it, he wanted to keep trying. He'd keep trying till it broke him right back.

    {In which Scar makes a point, Gem cuts through the drama, Pearl pipes up, and Grian makes his own decison}

    Summary

    Maybe it was because they were alone now? It felt like Impulse was nervously rambling just to fill the silence. They’d parted ways with Gem and the raven-winged avian, intended to speed up in pursuit of Tango and Zedaph. Or so that was the mission as far as Skizz had been made aware. He’d been involved in all those conversations, if not…well…if not exactly contributing. The goal here hadn’t changed. In the meantime, as they carried into the steep ascent toward the mountain pass, Impulse had been telling him another story from his childhood days in the Nether, and Skizz would love to insist he wasn’t paying attention.

    But it wasn't the truth.

    He’d been listening...and feeling...in all the ways he couldn't stand to do for even a second more.

    {In which Skizz crosses some things out, Impulse tries to fill the silence, and it's still a long way to Silversvale...but it's not nearly as far as you'd think.}

    Summary

    Aizawa starts walking towards the exit, obviously expecting Shouto to follow him, but Shouto's feet are frozen in place. His eyes flicker from the distorted reflection of himself in the ice to where All Might is giving him a long look, eyes kinder than anything Todoroki has ever been deserving of, and he feels sick.

    “Todoroki-kun,” Midoriya says gently, squeezing his arm in what Shouto presumes is meant to be a reassuring gesture. “It’s going to be okay.”

    He doesn’t think Midoriya is in any place to tell him what okay is, all things considered, but he chooses to keep quiet on the matter.
