    "Oh, come on, Garcia! I have nothing in my life that's good anymore besides my wife, children, and dog..."

    Yolanda stared down at the table for a long moment before muttering. “Just some random butterfly.”

    Summary

    From one day to the other, Joffrey Baratheon wakes up a changed man. Far from the spoiled boy-child known to the court of King's Landing, the Joffrey that comes out of his room three days after the death of John Arryn walks with the stride of a veteran commander and leader of men. A scholar, a sea-captain, a general, a lover. This is the story of how he became that man, and how he came to know his purpose through a cycle of endless death and rebirth that saw him explore both his self and the known world from Braavos to Sothoryios and from Old Town to Yi-Ti... and beyond.

    Summary

    The once-powerful Demon King, a figure of immense power, has died, leaving the demon race in disarray. His death creates a power vacuum that leaves many of the demons scrambling to find new leadership and to navigate the increasingly unstable world.

    In the aftermath, a young, hornless demon named Mirai is introduced. He has no memories of his past and is confused by his existence as a demon. Unlike others of his kind, Mirai does not harbor the instinctive bloodlust or malice that is typically expected of demons. He struggles with his identity, caught between the cruelty of his race and his desire to live among humans peacefully.

    Mirai is taken in by a group of adventurers, including the mage Frieren, who has a history of killing demons. Frieren, intrigued by Mirai’s unique nature and his apparent lack of typical demonic instincts, decides to let him travel with her. However, Mirai’s presence stirs up conflicted feelings within the group, particularly as Frieren struggles with her past and her complicated feelings toward demons.

    Summary

    News anchors are stationed nearby, blue fire rages over buildings, but the only ash in the air is from the thousands of flyers that drift from city rooftops to the ground.
    On top of a bus stands Midoriya Izuku. His unremarkable green hair seems wild in the harsh light of Dabi’s flames. He’s flanked on either side by Shinsou Hitoshi and Yaoyorozu Momo, and in formation around them is the League of Villains.
    People run screaming from the display, and news anchors know better than to get too close to the action when the League of Villains is involved– they’ve been known to injure and even kill bystanders on a whim.
    The linchpin of the new group seems to be Midoriya Izuku, and as he laughs in an unhinged way and raves about the injustice of hero society, nobody is interested in what he’s saying so much as the fact that he is saying it. He’s gone off the deep end.
    The pamphlets that litter the ground and begin to circulate online (even as the hero commission tries to censor them) read with just one line of text in red writing against a black background:
    "Watch Your Heroes Fall"

    Izuku always wanted to be a hero, until he saw what being a hero meant. So he found a better way to help others.

    Summary

    Kusuo stood before the giant gates of U.A, which towered over the crowd, radiating pure self-importance. It was ridiculous - an enormous blue building that frankly just looked like the letter H. The reflective panels that covered every inch of the exterior were blinding, gleaming in the sun. Kusuo was glad he had glasses. An eyesore, truly.

    Good Grief…

    The voices of excited and nervous middle schoolers filled Kusuo’s mind as he mingled with the crowd, making his way down the polished concrete path. Adjusting his green lenses, Kusuo took a moment to glance at the people around him. There were far too many of them, all eager to prove themselves at U.A’s famous entrance exam.

    Hopefully everyone would be far too on edge to come up to him and start something as disastrous as a conversation. It’s better to quickly get this over with, get a nice clean average score suitable for a U.A student, then wait it out until April, like everyone else.

    Simple.

    Summary

    Do you trust me enough to read this story without a summary? Cause I got none. T_T

    Okay okay I got one.

    -

    Who would you say was the most memorable person in your high school?

    “It's got to be that omega!”

    “Oh yeah! He's definitely the most memorable person of all. What was his name again?”

    “Right, Jung Hoseok!”

    Wow, he must've been very popular and friendly.

    “Don't get things twisted. He is the most obnoxious, self absorbed, pick-me omega to ever exist.”

    “Come to think of it, we never saw him again after that incident with Min Yoongi.”

    Min Yoongi…?

    “He was Jung Hoseok’s boyfriend, but their relationship ended really awfully. Something Jung Hoseok did.”

    “Nobody knows except their inner friend group. We just know that they suddenly started giving him the stink eye after the break up. It must've been something horrible.”

    “Jung Hoseok was really desperate though. It was so embarrassing!”

    “He just kind of disappeared after that. Nobody saw him again.”

    Summary

    At first, he’d assumed the visions were dreams. Absurd ones, at that. A nobody like him feared across the entire continent? Utter nonsense.

    The power he could imagine. The rest… Sukuna’s pride refused to accept. What a young fool he’d been back then.

    He really should have known better. From the beginning, life had never offered Sukuna much mercy, so why would the future be any different? Still, knowing the future gave him an advantage. One he intended to use.

    Unfortunately, fate had other ideas.

    When Yuuji swallowed Sukuna’s finger in 2018, all of Sukuna’s plans immediately fell apart. Rather than creating a host with a separate mind and soul, the fifteen-year-old boy merged with Sukuna outright. There was no vessel. No separation. Just one shared existence.

    A situation that left Sukuna in a rather precarious position… particularly given his knowledge of what was to come.

    On the other hand, the merger brought an unexpected benefit. Somewhere in the process, Sukuna regained his humanity.

    Summary

    King Arthur sets out to keep his promise to the spirit of the Druid boy by repealing his father's ban on magic. Unfortunately, this is easier said than done, for reasons including but not limited to the following:

    (1) He can't change the law until he understands magic better, but no sorcerer is willing to explain magic to him until he changes the law;

    (2) The sorcerers all have some strange obsession with Merlin, which is awakening all sorts of feelings in Arthur that he really doesn't fancy examining too closely;

    (3) He is starting to feel like the butt of some Druid-population-wide inside joke involving the mysterious phenomenon called Emrys; and

    (4) Oh yeah, Morgana is still trying to kill him.

    Thus he embarks on a journey of discovery, diplomacy, accountability, and self-improvement, and maybe even falls in love along the way.

    Summary

    “Perhaps the seeds of madness are sown in the womb.”

    Not for Aerion, no. Nor for Egg. But Daeron had always known. Since he was small, he saw the tapestries upon the walls burn above his cradle, and he knew. Drink or delirium, it did not matter. One way or another, his visions would be the death of him.

    He had not reckoned he would have to suffer more than one.

    The gods want something from Daeron. They must, to have devised so exceptional a hell. For why else would they have him live these days over and over?

    If they have chosen Daeron to change the future, they have chosen the wrong man. Daeron is not a hero. He never has been.

    Summary

    Some people said Azula was supposed to burn. No - she drowned.

    In the middle of the ocean.
    In the middle of nowhere.

    The Spirits had decided to pay her a visit in the most humiliating way possible.

    When Azula wakes up in a world without bending, without war, and without a throne waiting for her, she finds herself forced to navigate strange modern customs, crowded cities, and concepts that make far less sense than politics ever did.

    Somehow, the Gaang ends up helping her through it all: love, respect, friendship, and the terrifying process of becoming a person outside of war.

    But second chances were never meant to last forever… were they?

    Summary

    DeanxOC [AU]

    "Let me show you how much I don't like you"

    Initially, Castiel got the order to rescue both Dean Winchester and Angie Suduca, a nephilim, out of hell.

    The mission went terribly wrong and several angels were killed. Castiel, only being able to take one person with him, decided to save Angie since she was destined to a greater cause on earth. He didn't expect her refusal to go with him in order to give Dean her spot. Angie was marked the "failed rescue mission", a tragedy. She was thought of as a lost cause by now, being tortured daily, alone and hopeless.

    Noone expected her to fight her own way out of hell, inevitably crossing paths with the Winchesters as soon as she gets back. Only that Dean doesn't even know of her sacrifice for him...

    To say that Shen Wenlang is consumed by guilt is understandable. He had done many terrible things to a poor soul who did not deserve such cruelty. It’s only fair that he suffered as much pain as his victim.
