Summary
"I’m only two minutes late!” Izuku protested. Had he missed the start of an important test? None of the national, standardized tests were supposed to happen this month and even being two minutes late to one of those wouldn’t elicit this sort of reaction. They were discussing their career interest forms today, but that was it. Nothing time-critical was supposed to be happening.
“Midoriya, you were reported missing a week ago. No one has seen you for eight days. The police have been combing the city for you.”
"I’m sorry. What?”
Midoriya Izuku went missing for a week and turned up in a back alleyway with skills he's never even heard of and no memory of how he came by them. He resigns himself to never learning the truth of what happened to him, but he shouldn't waste this chance should he? He could become a hero with reflexes like these.

Bookmarker's Notes
Writing is often a search for meaning. I set my characters up against each other and send them out looking for answers. They report back to me, tell me what they found. Mostly they tell me that they are as confused as I am, and then at least we can be confused together. When I have a good story in the works I find it harder to be lonely. I live in a daydream.

Elias hires a monster to work in the archives. One small decision that shouldn't make much of a difference.
Until someone's putting googly eyes over everything in the Institute, Melanie's having pizza parties to save the almost-life of a manifestation of the Stranger, Sasha's writing off payments for illegal phone hacks as a work expense, and Tim's trying to figure out how many helium balloons one needs to fill the boss' office with in order to get fired.
Oh yeah, and they still need to save the world.

Summary
You're bad at fighting.
Kim Dokja could barely make out the dark splotches on his arm as words. At first, he thought they were just more bruises.
But even at six years old, hiding in the bathroom as he pretended not to hear his father shouting just outside the door...
Kim Dokja could read.
In a without scenarios alternate universe, everyone has a soulmate, one other person who they are fated to share the marks of the world with. It's common for young soulmates to contact one another by writing messages on their skin, but because of the way Kim Dokja's childhood was, he never wrote to his soulmate except to say goodbye.A decade and a half later, his soulmate still writes to him. Yoo Joonghyuk uses his arm like a diary and Kim Dokja knows practically everything there is to know about his soulmate and still refuses to contact him.
What will happen when he is forced to confront the man he's been avoiding his entire life face to face?

The Ending of Han Sooyoung by yellow_caballero

Summary
Han Sooyoung was the best character in Ways of Survival.
Totally OP powers, funniest quips, Yoo Joonghyuk’s best friend: maybe she was a badly written teenage SI/OC Mary Sue, but who cares? Kim Dokja had loved her the most for ten years. Too bad she wouldn’t stop dying.
Han Sooyoung was Kim Dokja’s best friend. And this was all going to be worth it.

New Translation of Matthew 4:1-11 by a Mr A.Z. Fell Published in 'The Examiner' Weekly Newspaper 6th July 1827 by Cheeseanonioncrisps

Summary
Though not the usual sort of thing that is published in this humble periodical, we hope that readers will enjoy this new (and rather unorthodox) translation of the gospel of Matthew from the original Greek. Notes from the editors have been added in places where further clarification is thought necessary.
Those with questions may reach Mr Fell at his bookshop in Soho, although we most emphatically advise them not to try.

Summary
"Proofing, also sometimes called final fermentation, is the specific term for allowing dough to rise after it has been shaped and before it is baked."
Less than a year has passed since the final battle, and the Ministry is already up to its old tricks. Harry would very much like them to stop ignoring due process, tossing people in Azkaban, controlling the press, and menacing the populace with dementors.
He would also like, if at all possible, to bake a passable loaf of bread.

They sought her out for conversation sometimes, cornering her in the garden or at the park, not that they ever had much to say. Really, Harriet thought snakes were rather dull.
---------
Harriet Potter has always been odd. Between having a shadow that moves on its own and chatting with grass snakes, learning she's a witch really isn't the strangest thing to happen to the bespectacled girl with a lightning scar on her neck.
Harriet attends Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where she makes new friends, encounters a prickly Potions Master, learns about the Boy Who Lived, and meets the enigmatic Defense Against the Dark Arts instructor, Professor Tom Slytherin.

Summary
Seven days later the genre of my life changed again.
------
[Personal Scenario #1 - Catch Up 1 ]
Category: Private
Difficulty: F
Clear Conditions: Obtain at least 1 romantic kiss. Further kisses will receive additional compensation.
Time Limit: 1 day
Compensation: 100 koins per kiss.
Failure: 24 Hour Lust Effect
------
It turned out this way. Making plans wouldn't have helped. Who could possibly have anticipated this?
I stared at the scenario screen, rubbed at my eyes, read it again, and finally closed the window.
I would just ignore it. I didn't understand, but the compensation was too low, the difficulty was insulting, and the failure cost was easily avoided. Even in the worst case scenario, ignoring it would be negligible, so why not ignore it?
