Summary
Izuku is ready to graduate and move on from the school, the town, and the hole in his chest left from Bakugou Katsuki all those years ago.
He is moments away from fleeing, before he is rapidly pulled back in.
One last summer, forced to have Katsuki at the center of it.
He had spent years wishing on every 11:11 that they would get a second chance, and now that they have, Izuku must deal with the consequences of being in love with someone who hates him more than they could ever love themself.
or: 12 chapters inspired by the 12 songs from Conan Gray's "Wishbone"

Summary
“Why are you doing this?” Alhaitham asked quietly. He asked it more to the bowl of soup than to Kaveh himself. Kaveh put a hand on his hip, holding out the spoon for Alhaitham to take.
“What do you mean, why? Like I’m just supposed to leave you to suffer?”
“You’re going to catch… whatever this is. It’s the better choice to just go to work like normal and leave me alone to let it run its course.”
Kaveh scoffed. “Well, that’s just heartless. Would you have left me like this?”
“Yes.”

Kaveh takes care of Alhaitham when he comes home sick - Alhaitham can't understand why he did it, much less how to go about making them even.Bookmarked by violetstarrain

Summary
Alhaitham’s agency throws him into a livestream dating show. As expected, he rejects everyone. Rudely.
“Name a key scientist involved in the laws of thermodynamics.”
“Newton?”
“What is your stance on Dialectic of Enlightenment?”
“Dia-what?”
“Name a philosopher. As an advantage, a dead one.”
“...”
“Next.”It shouldn't have been as surprising when someone finally snaps.
“Do you even know the answers to these questions, or are you just waiting for someone to say Ibn al-Haytham to boost your own ego?”
Or: The internet is privy to Alhaitham falling in love on camera.

Summary
“Ah.” Kaveh glows with Dendro, reacting instinctively, but before Al-Haitham can reach him, and before he can do anything, there is a sickening lurch in the space around them—it sends them both stumbling, and Kaveh loses his grip on the doorframe—
—and Kaveh falls outside, tumbling into the shapeless nothing, eyes wide as the darkness swallows him whole—
—And Al-Haitham wakes up from a fitful sleep, and knows that something is wrong.
Or: Al-Haitham and Kaveh are trapped in a time loop.

Summary
The problem, Kaveh decides, wasn’t just that Alhaitham had no range, even when the similarities were so close all he’d have to do was change his name. It was that Nilou somehow expected him to fix it. Performance chemistry was not something you could brute-force by proximity and stubbornness and sheer willpower. Kaveh has already spent a full semester proving that Alhaitham was biologically immune to charm.
Nilou rubbed her temples.
“Okay, look. You’re actors—well, one of you is. You’re meant to create illusions. Maybe just… pretend you don’t hate each other? And then hate each other when it calls for it.”
“We don’t hate each other,” Kaveh snapped.
Alhaitham, beside him, nodded agreeably. “I simply find him taxing.”
In Sumeru University’s production of Barefoot in the Park, Kaveh’s original scene partner breaks a leg. Literally. His insufferable roommate steps up to the plate. Only: they have zero chemistry and turn to alternatives, i.e, method acting.
But it’s fine, they’re adults. What could go wrong?
