Summary

Shinsou Hitoshi has always known that he was Unmarked, his bare wrist a painful reminder of the universe's decree that he was destined to be unwanted and unloved by all.

Midoriya Izuku gains a Raven mark the same day he’s officially diagnosed quirkless, and he's taunted relentlessly throughout middle school for having what must be a villain's soulmark.

Neither of them has ever met their soulmate. For all Shinsou knows, he doesn't have one.

This changes at Yuuei.

Summary

One, he's sitting upright. Two, his arms are pinned behind his back with shackles. Third, and perhaps most pressing, there are three other people in the room sitting next to and in front of him.

He can hear their breaths now, incredibly slow and steady in a way that indicates they're unconscious.

And the familiar voice tsks.

That really solidifies it for him, the sound alone confirming who’s in the room with him, even if his brain is still scattered in such a way that he can’t actually place the person.

“I can tell you’re awake, nerd,” Kacchan says from next to him.

Of course it’s Kacchan, it’s always Kacchan with him. Who else would it be?

Summary

Toshinori’s day had started off rather ordinary. He got out of bed, he taught his classes, he went to meet Shouta for dinner. Nothing had been particularly out of place. It was a peaceful day for once. But an interaction with a scared child turns all of that on its head, and Toshinori is left holding a bag of nightmares in his brain.

But Shouta will be there through it, and he assumes everything will be alright. Nothing prepared him for what actually occurs.

Hatsume doesn’t wait for a response—she just grabs Momo by the wrist and pulls her out of the room, raving about this amazing all-you-cat-eat Korean barbeque place she knows about. And Momo has to admit, it does sound good, so she happily follows as Hatsume pulls her along.
or: momo and hatsume pretend to be a couple, and momo flounders in the face of a very pressing infatuation

Summary

“Dr. Grace?” It’s been ages since Carl called me that. I can’t find it in myself to correct him. I hadn’t even heard him knock. “You asked to see me?”
Is this what being Stratt had felt like, people tiptoeing around you all the time? If only we’d had the time to treat the Astrophage with the same terrified respect. Then I wouldn’t be standing here in this room, space yawning cavernous around us like shoes I can never hope to fill.
I swallow what feels like a scream. “Come in. Close the door.”

Summary

‘There appears to be a real risk,’ said Psychologist Prime, tapping a stylus against their tablet in an idle way that frayed at the edge of Adrian’s sore nerves, ‘That should Alien Human-from-Earth-of-Sol Asylum-seeker Savior-of-Erid Grace perish, then your mate Savior Rocky may experience a radical and potentially fatal decline in physiological and psychological health.’

‘...I see,’ said Adrian. With exceptional calmness.

---

Let it not be said that Adrian was not devoted as well. They had stood firm, a loyal widower longer than others could fathom. Once you encountered a love like Rocky’s, there could be no replacement. Nothing could even compare.

‘Do you understand that?’ Adrian wanted to ask. So desperately, they wanted the alien’s reply. ‘Are you the only other creature in the universe who understands what it is like to be loved by someone so completely?’

---

Adrian meets Grace several times, before Grace is healthy enough to meet them in return. Despite light-years of distance between their species, Adrian might have finally met the first other being who appreciates Rocky like they do; or so they hope.
