Summary
UA has a rule—no quirkless students. It was added years ago, after much hemming and hawing about safety concerns and lessening blame in the inevitable circumstance of death. There's no real reason to remove it, not as the percentage of quirkless people plummets further and further.
Of course, this rule doesn't actually matter to Izuku, because he's got an analysis quirk.
As far as anyone knows.
The Plan is simple: have a quirk, become a hero, and avoid anyone who could disprove those first two things.
In hindsight, UA isn't a great choice. And that's before the villains.

Summary
Somewhere below him, a stranger named Wyll is living in the same house. Astarion had fled as far as he could and instead of quiet safety, there is someone else, and they aren't leaving.
It doesn't matter. He's here to stay.
Astarion hasn't made it this far to just give up.
Or: an old house on the point between two worlds.

Summary
The captain—because it must be the captain, there's no other possibility—stops directly before the straggled lines of captives. Black hair frames his angular features, the way his eyes narrow not against the sun but against them: their existence, maybe, or just the existence of all those beneath him.
There is a pause. And then he speaks.
"I am Captain Cazador Szarr of the Eternal," he says. It's a deep, almost melodic voice; too rich for the seadogs and savages that so often fill ships. Even against the better-dressed of his crew, he stands out like a noble in the East End rookeries. "And I am here to meet with your captain, pirates."
The year is 1728, and Astarion Ancunín casts across the Atlantic in hopes of reaching the Caribbean to finally make a name for himself.
He doesn't quite make it there.

Summary
Undead cannot become mindflayers. A living mind is required to be a host, and vampire spawns don't have one.
There's something growing inside Astarion's skull.

Summary
Before the village became abandoned ruins on the Risen Road, people still prepared for Greengrass.
Tessa Vale spends the day altering a ceremonial dress for the girl chosen to lead the spring procession. Around her, travellers leave without lingering, villagers reinforce cloaks for long journeys, and rumours spread faster than wagons through the square.
Nobody officially says the village is dying.
The dress still needs hemming.

Summary
“Look, I know we are on holiday right now,” Wyll begins. “No work. Just sight-seeing and relaxation. But…”
Wyll gives him an absolute masterwork of a smile. It’s charming without being too pushy, the kind of smile that says, “If you tell me that you want to go back to our lodgings, I will of course respect your wishes and will dispatch these foul monsters quickly and without a fuss. However, if you do find it in your heart to allow me to indulge in a quick spot of theatricality just this one time, I would consider it a kindness, and one that will be repaid.”
At least, that is what Astarion is choosing to interpret as the meaning of Wyll’s smile.
“Go on,” Astarion says, magnanimous. “You know you want to.”
With their wedding looming on the horizon, Wyll and Astarion decide to take a couple’s trip to spend time together and reconnect. Their holiday is supposed to be relaxing, fun, and low-pressure. It doesn’t entirely go according to plan.

Summary
Mogami stepped forward, slow and deliberate, like a boat built to cut through ice. She was shorter than Izuku, so she couldn't really tower over him, but that was the feeling she gave off when she leaned forward to inspect the table.
"I got caught in the rain," Izuku said, "So—I'm trying to fix—the pages were sticking together, and—"
"Oh!" Mogami yelped, and she dropped the carton. In half a second she had grabbed it again, turned it back right side up, but most of the contents had already spilled out over the drying papers.
or, Midoriya is having a bad time and then things get worse

Summary
Pro Hero Deku is not that tall of a man… In a simple white t-shirt and khakis, he’s not imposing at all. His 14 year old son, though much scrawnier in frame, is only an inch or two shorter than him.
Pro Hero Deku is not a cruel man. To the contrary, he cares too much, about all things at all times, about everyone and everything he can save if only it could come within his reach. The family counselor knows this. The counselor is surprised that, of all the world’s burdens Deku carries, it would be his family that slipped through his grasp.
Pro Hero Deku’s arms are gnarled and scarred, endlessly broken and re-broken in his youth from trying too much, and caring too much, and fighting too much for the sake of others. So why do they seem so awkward, so unpracticed, so unused to being wrapped in a hug around his son? Why was this boy the last thing for Pro Hero Deku’s arms to reach?
The counselor asks. The raw hurt of the session starts anew.

Summary
The Battle of Starcourt has been won, but its aftershocks are still rippling. Separated from the rest of the Party, Will struggles with feelings of abandonment, while El is trying to find her place with the Byers and come to terms with the loss of her powers - and the closest thing she's ever had to a father. Back in Hawkins, life is slowly returning to normal, or at least as normal as life ever is. The Party are starting to adjust to having two of their members at a distance, though everyone's still missing El and Will, Mike most of all.
But life in Hawkins never stays normal for long. Someone - or something - is following Steve and Robin, and they may not be the only ones under surveillance. A spectre from El's past makes an unexpected - and unwanted - reappearance. And an old enemy may turn out to be much more than meets the eye.
And sometimes, the bad guys are smart, too.
Separated by miles and misunderstandings, with communications failing and their enemies somehow always one step ahead, Hawkins' strange little fellowship find themselves caught between holding on and moving forward. If they want to survive to see another November, they'll have to face the past - and each other.
