    Summary

    Daryl's been on his own for six years now. Almost seven. He's been out of the fire, but he still feels the world around him burning. He likes his job at the auto shop. He likes his little studio apartment. He likes the neighbor girl Beth. But he still wakes up every night, drenched in sweat even when they're not in a heatwave. Still hears his father's voice in his head, feels the scars on his back like they're fresh. Still hasn't wrapped his head around his freedom.

    Rick is powering through it. The loss, the anger, full custody of his two kids. It was a dream of his once to never have to send them back to their mother's house again, a silly thought but one he felt in his heart every time they left his Jeep for the week. He's gotten his wish now at a terrible price: the loss of his ex-wife and childhood friend, and the terrible knowledge he has to choose to bury for the sake of his kids.

    Their paths cross and while Beth may try to take credit for playing matchmaker a little bit, they end up starting something that neither one wants to stop.

    Summary

    “I wouldn’t be hasty,” comments sixth-year Tom Riddle, eyes still glued on the boy in thought. "Harry Evans is going to Slytherin.”

    "The strange Mudblood?" Abraxas Malfoy cocks his head. “How can you be so sure?”

    Riddle just smiles in response.

    Silence settles over the Slytherins, anticipation heavy. And, soon they'll know that Tom Riddle is right again.

    Summary

    Just like every other day, Izuku mumbled up a storm and about fifteen minutes later (a drastic increase from the measly three minutes he would have gotten in their first year), Katsuki turned to him and snapped. "Shut the fuck up nerd! I can barely hear myself think!"

    And Izuku's jaw practically sealed itself shut. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't open his mouth to speak. Thankfully, he wasn't called on during the lesson, but that didn't mean he hadn't tried to participate. He just couldn't.

    —or—

    Izuku is hit by an obedience quirk, and he wonders who exactly he wronged in a past life to deserve this much bullshit.

    Summary

    “Harry Potter.”

    The cold burrowed into his flesh; the scent of cloying death and molding earth clogged his senses.

    “The Boy Who Lived.”

    A strange sense of unimaginable loss and disappointment rose inside of Harry. That brilliant, yet cruel boy could’ve been so much more if he’d not stepped down this bloodied path.

    Terrible, but great. He pitied this creature.

    “Come to die.”

    Harry Potter faced the flash of green light with the bravery of a Gryffindor and the broken heart of a Hufflepuff.


    When Death gives Harry a third option, one that can save everyone he ever cared about, he takes it unflinchingly. Even when that means doing the impossible: falling in love with the enemy, Tom Riddle.
