Summary
"What, did you think that my mother was the normal one between the two of them?"
"I mean, when her competition is freaking Endeavor, I kind of did!"
Todoroki laughs, not in a mean way, but Kaminari still shrinks away.
"My mother likes to go missing as a hobby. She also terrorizes anyone who mildly inconveniences her, though good luck trying to prove anything on that front. She's a nightmare."
Kaminari's quiet for a moment, and hesitates before asking, "Are you... okay?"
Todoroki laughs again. "Of course I am. I love my mother."
---
In which Todoroki Rei's maiden name isn't Himura. Instead, she hails from a rich, private European family by the name of Lukas.

It has been eight days since Nana died.
Seven days, thirteen hours, and twenty two minutes, technically. Not that Sorahiko's keeping that close of a count.

Summary
Welcome to Battle of the Blades!®, a game show in which, over the course of six weeks, talented figure skaters and hockey players must step into each others' skates and teach each other how to play their own sport, in order to compete for the coveted Golden Skates- and a cash prize of 15 million won!
In the first ever season, we have four players split into two teams- the women, Crows center forward Sayeon Lee and Olympic-level figure skater Ryujin Kang, against the men, Sea Wolves defenseman Min Woo and Grand Prix champion Iseul Kim- going head-to-head in this intense game show!
For the next six episodes, enjoy tension, drama, and disasters on the ice, as we all wonder... what the hell is going on between Lee and Kang?

Summary
In times of high stress, people can experience psychotic episodes or breaks from reality. These can include hallucinations, including hallucinating the reappearance of dead loved ones.
Of course, if you've accepted that the dead don't always stay dead, and you have the ability to see things that other people can't on a regular basis, then who's to say what is or isn't a hallucination? Who's to say what is or isn't real?

Summary
L rubs his thumb against his lip, “and you suspect you know who Kira is?”
“I’m Kira.” Light replies.
“I see,” L murmurs, “so this is a confession?”
“Of sorts,” Light prefaces. “That is to say; I was Kira, until three days ago, but now I need your help to prove it and stop whatever I’ve put in motion.”
“You better start from the beginning.”

Summary
“My life is a nightmare,” Dabi muttered blankly.
“Nah, this is hilarious,” Hawks said, and while he wasn’t explicitly laughing, Dabi knew that those weird little chirps he was letting out were pointed at him. “Imagine if we go through all this effort and you don’t even have some sort of dramatic background or tragic backstory to justify you being this emo, you’re just a hot topic junkie or something.”
“That’s fucking worse.”
Or,
Dabi has amnesia and keeps reading conspiracy theories about himself in an attempt to figure out who he is, gets the League in on it, and they dismantle organized crime, revolutionize society, and ravage the hero system in the process. Hawks suffers.

Summary
Tim was right.
Maybe he hadn’t really made it out of the museum whole.
Maybe there was no more Jonathan Sims left to save.
-
Even though he survives the Unknowing, Tim can’t find it in himself to forgive his boss.
Lucky for him, Jon doesn’t forgive himself either.
When Jon makes amends in the only way he thinks will matter, Tim is left grappling with the shadow that remains.
Written for the Rusty Quill Big Bang 2022.

Summary
The knife goes in. The tower falls. When Jon opens his eyes, he is sitting in the uncomfortable chair in front of Elias Bouchard's desk, signing his employment contract as the Magnus Institute's newest researcher.
He is alone in his memories of the future; his old friends might as well be worlds away. He demonstrably does not do well alone.
Luckily, in the year 2011, he has options.
