Summary
“Niklaus wasted his favor.” Gillion said dully. “Because if it happened again, if I had to do it all over, I’d do the same thing.”
“What was the choice, Gil?” Chip asked, urgency and dread pouring into his voice, pulling it down. “Why did you look at me?”*****
Gillion gave up everything for Chip. He and Chip talk about it.

When Jon is a child he looks into the infinite abyss of space. The Vast looks back into him.

Summary
On the desk is a statement—a statement Jon knows to belong to Andre Ramao.
Jon knows this day. This day dug holes beneath his skin, gouged him, one of many marks much deeper than the outline of a paper clip against his cheek. Not yet, it hasn’t. A glimmer of hope: not yet.
But why here? Why now? There are few days that Jon would voluntarily stumble through a second time, and 29th July is not one of them. So, who chose this?
Or, Jon wakes up in 2016 and gets a second (and third and fourth and fifth) chance.

Bookmarker's Notes
they put my boy in the torture chamber!!! i'll have you know, time loops are extremely unethical & against the geneva convention!!! >:(
in all seriousness, i feel like i took psychic damage -the good kind, of course- reading this. gods. my favourite segment was in chapter 6, the five-four-three-two-one method, the last line bodyslammed me. absolutely loved the way this was written, the repeated parts, the almost-normalcy of the peaceful interactions, the banter and, of course, the psychological torture inflicted on the reader via the character! in the best possible way, it felt like i was there. -

“It’s a preexisting condition,” Jon explains, sipping more bitter tea. “I sort of got—hm. You know Spiderman?”
Tim raises an eyebrow.
“Heard of him, yeah.”
Jon nods, studying his tea.
“It’s sort of like that,” he says. “A spider killed and ate me when I was a child, and now I can’t stay dead.”

Summary
"My, My head hurts," he replied dumbly, "And I had a… A really terrible nightmare."
And god, did the last few years feel like a nightmare. A horrible, never-ending nightmare that twisted into shapes Jon never thought possible and took more from him than he knew he had to take.
"Must have been some nightmare," Tim hummed.
"It was," Jon laughed humorlessly.----------------
After the conclusion of the Watcher's Crown, Jon finds himself waking up in a much younger version of his own body, one that's still working with Tim and Sasha in research. Jon refuses to let this opportunity pass him by, refuses to let this world fall to the same fate as his. He'll do it better this time. He'll save everyone, no matter the cost.

Summary
At age thirty-five, being at the top is…
Living alone in an apartment big enough for five. It’s closing your eyes and inhaling the crisp spring air, only to remember war-scorched skies and the metallic scent of blood. Passing by a laughing group of strangers, only to hear screams for help. Watching your colleagues around you either get married or fall apart—there’s no in-between. It’s an itch that you can’t scratch out of your skin, where old lacerations have amassed on epidermis. The ringing in your ears that doesn’t go away no matter how many times you’ve changed your hearing aids.
It’s sleeplessness even when your body is so exhausted, because your mind is on overdrive. Yesteryear’s failures are monsters breathing under your bed. The friends you let slip, the lives you couldn’t save.
The boy with green eyes.
Twenty years later, Katsuki rescues Izuku from a villain attack. As they rebuild their friendship from scratch, he learns what it means to be a hero.

On the Nature of Surviving by SilverBlood822
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia (Anime & Manga)
01 Dec 2024

Summary
If there is one thing that he has learned, it is that surviving is hard. By itself, choosing to survive and continuing to exist will be one of the hardest things to accomplish. By the next day he’s surprised he didn't die the day before.
He should be dead by now, right?
Didn’t his story essentially end the moment he was handed his death sentence in a diagnosis? Or was that where it began?
He’s not sure if he believes in beginnings and endings.
Does it matter how an ending starts when the end is near? Does it matter who is there and who isn’t, what he endures or overcomes? Does it matter how hard he tries, or how much he cares?
People like Izuku survive until they don’t.
Is that Living? Is it Surviving? Is it Death?
...What's the fucking difference?

Summary
"Vla- no, not him." Shota scowled, he would rather give up all his naps than live to see the day where Sekijiro Kan of all people became his superior. "Snipe?!"
"Not emotionally available at the moment as he is currently battling his romantic feelings for Kayama-san." Shota shot back down.
"For the love of god-!"
"As you can see, me appointing you as principal is the only logical decision available,"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Or: Nezu goes on a week long business trip and makes Aizawa the temporary principal while he's gone, giving him all the powers the principal of UA would normally have. Aizawa, prepared to use this power to it's full capacity, silently vows to make as many changes to UA as he can in a single week. He appoints Midoriya as his secretary for the time being and together they wreak havoc among the school, showing no mercy to any obstacle in their path (And maybe becoming father and son along the way). The rest of the staff and students are left to sit back and watch as everything they know goes up in flames.

Summary
equality /iˈkwɒl.ə.ti/:
the right of different groups of people to have a similar social position and receive the same treatmentequity /ˈek.wɪ.ti/:
the situation in which everyone is treated fairly according to their needs and no group of people is given special treatment
Stories often start with “Once upon a time.” — a fair introduction to an extraordinary world
Impressive feats, Happy endings. They’re called fairytales, a fabled escape from the awful truth.
Because humans are willing to ignore each other in the name of greed, and fame and ego–
Once upon a time never happens “once”, he learned. It’s a cycle. A pretty illusion. That’s what differentiates reality from fantastical worlds. Izuku thought he broke out of this mold at the ripe age of four. And yet, it seems he’d been ignorant like the masses the whole time.
or
Broken dreams and angry tears lead Izuku to run away from the only place he'd ever known. Surprisingly, it doesn't end up being as bad as one could expect.
