    Summary

    It’s five hours from Tokyo to Sendai. It’s five years from Fukurodani Academy to the Black Jackals. It’s five sets between win and loss and five seconds to miss that final point. It’s five; the number of Fukurodani’s vice-captain and setter for one blinding, beautiful year. It’s five; like an identity branded into his heart, the only number that holds any meaning for him. Black and white and gold.

    “You always pick five,” Udai muses in the wake of the staff betting pool. Akaashi’s not even sure what they’re betting on, aware that his final deadline to have the latest manuscript submitted is in five days.

    “Five is a good number.”

    It’s five years since Akaashi watched Bokuto step into the light of the future and five years since he last set a volleyball into the air on centre court. It’s been five years, and in not one of them has he forgotten what it felt like to stand beneath the trajectory of a shooting star.

    Summary

    Before his third year of Hogwarts has even begun, Harry faces three whole weeks of unsupervised time in Diagon Alley. In that time he takes a trip to Gringotts - and that changes everything.

    Burdened with the knowledge that Dumbledore has been blocking his family magic, and manipulating far more than he ever thought possible, Harry doesn't know who he can trust; but he knows he can't keep going that way. There's a whole world of lore and politics and history to catch up on, and the more he learns, the more Harry realises his true place in the world, and how much is being kept hidden from him. All the while, Dumbledore's twinkling eyes are constantly watching, and Harry can't let on how much he knows.

    With help from unexpected places, Harry starts on a journey to end the war, and reshape the wizarding world. With how much he looks like James Potter, people have forgotten one important thing about him - he is Lily Evans' son, and she was one hell of a witch.

    Summary

    Aizawa had thought, at first, that his real problem child would have been the ash blond with the powerful quirk. Don’t get him wrong- Bakugou is definitely still a problem child. But her...

    Aizawa stares critically at the girl sitting in the cot- actively licking at the cut across her forearm. Her nose dribbles blood but she doesn’t lick that away. Her eyes singe holes into Iida’s face. Iida doesn’t glare back. His eyes stay carefully on Recovery Girl- arm cradled to his chest because that little menace of a girl had managed to break it.

    Short, skinny, and wild. She’d broken Tenya’s arm and didn’t even flinch when he screamed.

    Iida Tenya finally flicks a glance up at her. Yamada Hanako doesn’t even blink as his eyes immediately fall away.

    Yamada Hanako… What an ominous moniker.

    Who named a little quirkless girl after an unidentified corpse like that?
    --
    In which I write a fic about a quirkless main character because I really want one but like I can’t seem to find one that the mc doesn’t discover a hidden quirk. I’m saying this now: She Is Quirkless!

He is to graduate, publish writing for others to be inspired by, and slip quietly away. Shortly after, he meets a dog walker named Bokuto who asks him out and Akaashi reluctantly agrees. Nothing matters anymore and he treats Bokuto like an obligation. Until he's not anymore.
