    Summary

    Who the hell builds a casino in this part of town?

     

    Maybe he’d wandered further than he thought. Guest pulls his phone out of his pocket to take a cursory glance at his whereabouts, but finds himself roughly where he thought he was going. The side of Robloxia his new apartment is in isn’t exactly the most wealthy place, and as far as he knew casinos tended to pop up closer to the city centre.

    But here it was, nestled between stores that have long since closed for the night. Lady Luck’s Bar & Casino. The only building still lit up on the entire block.

    ---
    or; slice of life no-forsaken toughluck where guest is coping as both a veteran and a single father and chance is flirting at him terribly while trying to pretend nothing is wrong with them ever

    Summary

    Dabi is in the strange position of hiding from his past by being really, ridiculously obvious to everyone from his past on national TV. With the League bar a smoking ruin, he jumps straight from The Bachelorette into Bachelor In Paradise with the hope that the program’s “secret” location and army of bodyguards will keep him from being kidnapped a second time… or. Well. A third time, really. He just needs to play it cool, but that’s hard when Hawks has followed him to Paradise too, and Dabi can’t seem to concentrate on any of the other contestants.

    Hawks is in the strange position of playing secret bodyguard for the man he’s fallen for, because the only other informants for the HPSC’s darkest secrets have either disappeared or been killed. This piles more angst on top of his already-confusing crush. Is he even allowed to have a crush? Emotions are hard. Hawks is suffering.

    Meanwhile Natsuo is horrified but vindicated when he learns that the details of his brother’s death were forged; half of the U.A. staff is on the hunt for Oboro Shirakumo, who called into a radio show despite being dead for over ten years; and the League may not be villains, but they don’t take an insult laying down.
