    Summary

    Izuku's quirk is simple, it tells him exactly what he needs to do.
    It tells him to grab an umbrella and that afternoon it rains unexpectedly. It tells him to bring cash and it turns out the card reader is out of order.
    His quirk tells him to rob a bank.
    Well, why not?
    - - -
    Does the name All for One mean anything to Izuku? Nope.
    Will he tear down the empire of a powerful villain who has been terrorizing Japan for over a century anyway? Sure.

    Summary

    No human is permitted to see the Animal Court. But Tim, a feral, too-small thing, with tangled hair and teeth that yet remember how to rend, who scrambles about on four legs as often as two because there is no one to lift him to his feet - Tim, who wandered into the nighttime woods and has no one to call him back to the light of human homes - why would the forest have any reason to think him a man-thing?

    Summary

    There’s a beat of hesitation, but Evan lets go of the red metal and looks headlong into the ground awaiting him.

    All is calm, and he takes a step.

    “What the fuck.” The stillness of the night is shattered to pieces, and Evan scrambles desperately to take hold of the bridge again. The loss of the silence brings about the loss of control, and within moments he’s hyperventilating, hands sweating and heart racing.

    Evan glances over his shoulder and in the darkness can make out a slight, tall figure standing at the very edge of the treeline.

    “I-I’m sorry?” Evan chances in response, eyes on the person as they step forward.

    And, well. Of all the people he expected to see tonight, Connor Murphy was not one of them.

    Summary

    “Wait.” Sethos grabbed Wanderer’s sleeve before the other could get away. “One thing before you go.” He stood, holding onto Wanderer’s forearm for support as he pulled himself upright. When Sethos let his hand linger, neither mentioned it.

    “Speak.”

    Gathering his courage, Sethos fixed his attention on Wanderer. “I like you,” he said. “And I would like to see you again.”

    Wanderer raised an eyebrow. “You will.”

    “Romantically,” Sethos clarified.
