Summary
Hey, would you like to hear a story?
Yes, this is Midoriya Izuku's tale!
Oh no, it's not the one of him becoming a great hero. Nope, not him becoming the villain either. No, not even a vigilante. No, we don't have dadzawa over here. No, neither All Might Bashing- Can you let me explain before you ask questions!?
Ok, where was I?... Oh yeah! This is the story of Midoriya Izuku, a boy with big dreams but no power in a world where they became the norm and be-all-end-all. Yes, this is a sad world, really, one where most love to put him through the grinder for sadism dressed up as character development, addiction to fluff, revenge, and power fantasies, or just the good ol' smut. But this story? You see, this story has one purpose and one purpose only.
I want to bring some Elation to your lives :)

Summary
She belly flopped onto the roof- no style points, but it worked. Besides, there would be no-one around to see at this time of night.
She was forced to revise that option when she looked up into a pair of glowing white eyes. The silhouette they were set in looked almost human.
Her breath was stolen from her chest when wings snapped open, blocking out the moon.
“Another? Like me?”
Shadow struck from those blackened wings, wrapping around her wrists and ankles, binding her tightly. The bag was snatched from her back and alarms started to blare from below.
The creature… the-the Bat-Man chittered, then vanished into the night.

Summary
Sentosa Island is supposed to be a paradise: sunlit beaches, clear waters, and laughter echoing over the sand. But when a sea monster is sighted off Siloso Beach, panic spreads through Singapore’s most famous resort destination.
Enter Houtarou Oreki, a self-proclaimed expert in exposing cryptid hoaxes, dragged to the sunny shores of Singapore by circumstance, curiosity, and people far more energetic than himself. Joined by Eru Chitanda, Ritsu Tainaka, Mio Akiyama, and Aoi Asahina, Houtarou expects another case of misidentification, fear, and exaggeration, but what he doesn’t expect is evidence that refuses to stay debunked.
As sightings increase and a disgraced cryptozoologist lurking offshore, witnesses begin contradicting each other, and the creature itself behaves in ways that don’t align with any known animal or hoax. What began as a simple mystery threatens to unravel into something far stranger, and far more dangerous than anyone anticipated, because some legends aren’t meant to be exposed, and some monsters don’t want to stay in the sea.

Summary
Danny and his friends think they have a good grasp on things. Ghosts were real and needed to be fought, simple enough. Until a new ghost appears in town and it isn't. And then there were Aliens. And some foreign exchange students, but that's not important.
Things are about to get weird. Like, really weird.

Summary
Number one rule for working the night shifts at the sketchy gas station in the middle of butt-fuck nowhere was to not look at them, and they would leave you alone. They weren’t even supposed to see you if you didn’t look at them - just flicker the lights, rattle some shelves, and inflict the fear of death into your bone marrow.
Then, one night, one of them with stupid eyebrows and a serious attitude problem chose to come in only to start yelling at Zoro, who had done literally nothing to deserve it.
**
OR: Zoro works at a gas station that gets creepy visitors at night. One of them is more annoying than the others. -

Summary
Thank you so much to @twigsofmanyfaces for letting me borrow your boy Trouble and shake him like a cocktail shaker. If y'all haven't read their work yet, you should do that immediately!!
The bar Trouble frequents sees all types: humans, non-humans, and a certain subset of both that Trouble just loves getting his teeth into. Tonight is no different. Three of the usual assholes can't seem to take their eyes off him. Trouble is happy enough to go along with their schemes for long enough to get his meal - until he realizes he isn't the only one in the angels' basement.
This takes place during an alternate version of Dee's first captivity.

Summary
Lottie is fearless, wealthy, and obsessed with the hidden—demons, cryptids, and the strange forces that lurk just beyond the edges of the world. Nat is guarded, sharp, and haunted by a past that has taught her survival comes at a cost. When Lottie invites Nat on a roadtrip across the American West, it’s meant to prove the impossible—but the journey becomes something far more dangerous, and far more intimate. In the deserts, motels, and abandoned roads they traverse, the ordinary bleeds into the uncanny: symbols appear in the dark, shadows seem to watch, and moments of beauty and terror are inseparable. As fear and fascination entwine, so do their lives, drawing them together in ways neither fully understands. In this tale of secrets, obsession, and fragile trust, love and the supernatural collide, and the boundaries between desire, protection, and the unknown are blurred under the vast, haunting sky of the West.
