Summary
“Oi, Deku!”
Izuku pauses and looks back because of course he does. Because he’s stupid and weak and hopeful. Because he doesn’t really want to give up on Kaccan. He never has.
“This is your one shot,” Kacchan says, harsh red gaze boring into him. “Once I leave, I’m in the wind, and you’ll never get any justice.”
At that, Izuku makes a strangled sound, caught somewhere between a laugh and a sob.
“What the hell am I supposed to do?” Izuku is crying now, ugly little tears dripping down his face. “I’m just one person. What could I possibly do to fix this?”
“Fuck, Deku,” Kacchan sighs before placing a hand on Izuku’s shoulder and slouching to put them at eye-level. “Where’s your goddamn fight? You always said you wanted to be a hero. What the hell do you have to lose that you haven’t lost already?” -

Summary
“You don’t have to punish them by making them clean up—”
“It’s not like I forced Izuku to go in and help.”
“No,” Inko says, exhaustion creeping into her voice, “you just strongly suggested it.”
“I gave him a nudge. Besides,” Mitsuki waves a dismissive hand, setting her drink down with the other. “It’s not punishment. Your kid just knows a good opportunity when he sees it.”
“Mitsuki.” The album in her hands shuts and finds the coffee table. “No matchmaking during the holidays. We discussed this.”

Summary
“Merry Christmas, Kacchan.” He presses a loud, smacking kiss to the lump of blankets.
One narrowed, red eye and a puff of blonde hair peeks out from the blanket.
“The hell’re you on about?” Kacchan’s voice is thick and muddy with sleep. “There’s no Christmasses anymore.”

Summary
“You’re so fucking annoying, always doing stupid shit,” Kacchan says. “You know that, right?”
“Maybe.” At the very least their bickering seems to work as a decent distraction from Kacchan's broken leg, the thrill of an argument bringing color back to Kacchan’s cheeks. “But I also didn’t overshoot my way clear across a roof.”
“Fuck you,” Kacchan spits. “It was icy.”
“And?”
“I wouldn’t have done that if you weren’t—”
“Doing my job?” Izuku smiles, soft, with a playful tilt to his head.
“Trying to do everything on your own!”

Summary
"Him," the Bat repeats, in a low and deceptively soft growl.
"I don't know who he was," the man says immediately, taking this cue and running with it. "I don't, honest. Honest, I swear to god. Nobody did. He just showed up, that's all. Asking about you, asking everybody what they knew, if they'd ever seen you, what you'd done. Metropolis," the man adds belatedly. "He had that look, you know? Clean. Said his name was—Carr, or Kemp, or something. Something like that."
(Or: in a universe where Bruce becomes aware that someone's looking into the Batman, he goes to the effort to track down Clark Kent. It doesn't play out quite the way either of them expected.)

Summary
"Clark. What the hell is this," Lois asks, staring at Clark's Bruceman WIP folder. Clark's first instinct is to fly away, but that would still leave his fic on display for her to see. His second instinct is to blast a hole straight through his laptop screen with his heat vision, which isn't much better.
Clark, in an attempt to make some spare cash, unintentionally stumbles into the world of superhero fanfiction, becomes a prolific writer for Gotham's OTP, and tries his best to fend off rival fans who want him to convert to superbat instead.- Language:

Summary
Zuko scoffed. “As always, I am the author of my own unhappiness.”
Sokka hummed. “Years ago, when it was just us travelling together, we came across this fortune teller. I didn’t believe any of that mumbo-jumbo. But then she said that my life would be full of struggle and anguish, most of it self-inflicted.”
It suited Zuko’s life extraordinarily well, he felt. “Sometimes, I feel like I’m the only person in the Fire Nation who has a vision of what it takes for this country to get better.”
Sokka turned to face him, but Zuko looked resolutely forwards. “That can’t be true.”
Zuko turns twenty-five. In spite of his best efforts, the Fire Nation seems to lurch from crisis to crisis. The firebenders have lost their flame, and the situation with the former colonies is only worsening. All the while, he's ill, lonely, and consumed by work.
And on the other side of the country, Sokka has just moved in with one Master Piandao.

Summary
"Are you cold?" Henry asked.
Without armor, in hose and gambeson, he was still an imposing figure: tall and broad, hands stained with dirt and blood, jaw stubbornly stiff. His bare feet were a shock of white in the dirt. He held his helm with both hands, embracing the metal into his belly. His hair was damp with sweat. There was another string of bruises on his throat, shaped like two wide thumbs.
Hans looked away. The tunic around Henry's knee had darkened. Blood was trickling into the dirt.
Hans kills a man, prepares for a wedding, and tries to do at least one thing right.
(Or: five times Hans and Henry didn't share a bed, and one time they did.)
