Summary
Midoriya looks a little bit nervous as Shouta reads his notebook, and Shouta wonders why. “I mean, it’s not as impressive as it looks, I guess. It’s just a pastime.”
“I don’t give empty compliments, kid.” He closes the book, handing it back to the boy, who takes it gratefully. “Ever considered applying to U.A.?”
Midoriya doesn’t meet his eyes. “No.”
Shouta raises an eyebrow. “Heroics not your thing?” He’s surprised, considering the things that he’s just read. The boy in front of him, with his seemingly guileless bright green eyes and nervous disposition, has a brilliant mind that any teacher would kill to get their hands on. Especially Nedzu. But he can hardly blame those who don’t want to get into heroics, either - if Midoriya has researched underground heroics as much as Shouta suspects, he would have seen enough to be disillusioned.
But none of those reasons are why Midoriya shakes his head.
He’s still smiling, Shouta notices.
“You could say that.”
OR: Shouta meets a boy in a hospital and watches him help who he can, all while he wastes away.
OR OR: A story of grief, childhood, strength, hope, and the art of letting go.

a love as twisted (and tragic) as yours by jello12451

Summary
“I loved you with my hands, with my power. Was it not enough?”
“No,” Kiana says, truthfully.
“I planted stars in your pupils and wove the Milky Way into your hair.” It murmurs, quiet and grieving. “I gave you comets for wings and planets as stepping stones.”
“You did.” She agrees.
“The Universe was your cloak. Time was your plaything. You could have shaped the world into anything you wanted.”
“After how many prices paid?” Kiana closes her eyes, remembering the pain of Honkai peeling apart her body, an eye turned amber, burning herself in cleansing flames until her irises were finally once again blue.
“Did it matter?”It is genuine in its inquiry. But Kiana still feels the dying embers of hatred that she tried to let go.
“Yes,” she snaps forcefully.
OR: A conversation between the Honkai and Kiana, estranged parent and child.
(And, in some ways, the beginning of re-understanding and re-knowing what it means to be human.) -

Summary
“I think,” Welt says out loud, “it’s okay to be a little selfish sometimes.”
“Really?”
Dan Heng sounds like he doesn’t believe him. Welt can’t blame him.
Nonetheless, he continues. “I’ve mentored a group of kids much like you all. Young, energetic, and hearts too big for their own good.” Welt sighs. “They didn’t have the time to be selfish, too busy being heroes. So if there is room for you to be selfish, then at least the burdens of the world are not placed on your shoulders.”
“Someone has to be a hero eventually.”
“‘The tragedy does not lie in the sacrifices we’ve made for our victory - it is that we’ve accustomed ourselves to the fact that we must sacrifice someone for our victory,’” Welt recites, an age-old lesson that took him far too long to understand. “If you have something to call your own, that you can be selfish for, then the world has not failed you yet, Dan Heng.”
Dan Heng has nothing to say to that, but Welt thinks that he might get it.
Or, not yet. Just like how Welt didn’t get it, once.
But he will, with time.
OR: Welt, The Astral Express, Anti-Entropy, and then some - on the topics of moving on from the past, healing, and a long journey home.

Summary
[Recording: June, 2012; from: Mother]
“Hey. You did well today. I know you don’t think so, with your pinch server position and all, but I am proud of you. I’m sorry I didn’t say it this morning. Please come home before dark. Your sister would like to see you. It doesn’t matter if the coach thinks- if the coach thinks you’re not a good setter. You’re the best setter in her eyes. And in my eyes. Come home soon, please.”
Click.
OR: Eight years later, Semi Eita reconsiders the end of Shiratorizawa, reflecting on the constance and change of things: as told through voice messages, uninvited guests, and finding strength in more than one way.
