Summary
Personally, Ocelot always ascribed to Satre’s idea of hell. Hell was being trapped in a room with Kaz and Huey: other people. Nothing could be worse.
So, when he woke up in his bunk at Groznyj, both arms intact and body noticeably younger, he had to admit that hell was more creative than he had given it credit for.

Summary
“You cut up a thing that’s alive and beautiful to find out how it’s alive and why it’s beautiful, and before you know it, it’s neither of those things, and you’re standing there with blood on your face and tears in your sight and only the terrible ache of guilt to show for it.”

Summary
Seven days. One island. Two men caught between past and purpose.

Summary
Gi-hun’s rebellion failed. Now imprisoned, he’s nothing more than a pawn in a game he thought he could escape. The Front Man has plans for him, and he’s not content with just breaking Gi-hun physically - he wants to remake him, reshape him into a tool of the system. The pull of surrender becomes harder to resist with each passing moment, as the Front Man’s dark brand of affection worms its way under Gi-hun’s skin.
But a mysterious soldier, whose presence feels eerily familiar, watches from the shadows, unsettling Gi-hun with memories he can’t quite reach and dredging up a past that threatens to shatter what little sanity he has left.
Or:
Gi-hun is torn between the Front Man’s suffocating grip and a ghost from his past - one who may be the key to his salvation or his destruction.
Canon divergence post–Season 2.

Summary
After graduating, Aizawa Shouta rented a broken down basement apartment, threw his heart away, and shut everyone out. That was how he lived for two years—isolated in an unheated apartment with no possessions and no life outside of hero work. It was the logical choice. That was what Shouta told himself every night.
Then he reconnected with Hizashi, who managed to reach his missing heart, and everything came tumbling down.
For two years, Shouta thought he was fine. But for those two years, Shouta was just spiraling further and further down. One thing became clear: Shouta couldn't take care of himself and the problems he always had were just becoming more apparent. Shouta never understood himself and he always knew that there was something wrong, but that was never so obvious as it was now. After seeing his rundown apartment, Hizashi has him move in so he can help him understand himself and both he and Shouta start on the long journey of sorting everything out—from the mess inside Shouta's head to the lost relationship they once had, bit by bit.
