Summary
If you had asked him where he thought he would be at age twenty-five, Aizawa Shōta probably wouldn’t have said, “Sharing a crap apartment with this weird guy who’s somehow sort of become my friend, trying to kick a smoking habit, and failing to pay the bills with underground hero work.” He had, at one point, slightly more ambition for himself. But here he is, curled up on a futon in a room barely large enough to stretch out in, getting the shit kicked out of him on a semi-regular basis in the name of underground heroics and, presumably, the greater good. He’s been doing it for four years and will probably doing it for many more. What else is there?
It turns out, the answer is "a lot."
-----
In which Aizawa and Yagi disagree about a lot of things, and yet keep finding themselves together. Being a hero means different things for different people. Not being a hero anymore means nothing; it is unimaginable. It's also unavoidable, so at some point they're going to have to figure out how to talk about that. First, though, they have to figure out how to talk to each other. (Story starts pre-canon and continues through current manga chapters.)

Summary
Like so many other Friday nights, it starts with the two of them sitting on a rooftop, legs dangling over the edge, looking down on the city—Aizawa Shōta and Yamada Hizashi, known by their hero names as Eraserhead and Present Mic, out on patrol, waiting for something to happen. It’s been four years since their U.A. graduation and they’ve been kicking around Tōkyō trying to figure out their lives, trying to make enough money to get ahead in the world. So they take down a group of villains without too much trouble, nothing more than a few minor injuries, nothing out of the ordinary. It should be an easy paycheck. It’s not until they get back to Aizawa’s apartment that they realise there’s something wrong.
When they said they were waiting for something to happen, they didn’t mean this.

Summary
Sometimes good things can happen in only a year. The problem is, then, what do you do when the year is over?
Takashi "Shiro" Shirogane is 28, in his last year of a Ph.D. in history after his discharge from the army; he's burnt-out, aching. He's applying for jobs he doesn't feel qualified for and almost certainly won't get, with the way the academic job market is these days. He's thinking about his future and all he sees is the darkness of space, spreading out before him.
And then there's Keith, 24, a senior in history, struggling to keep his focus on the future instead of the past; Lance, 22, a senior in biology with a lot of debt and doubt on his shoulders; Hunk, 23, a senior in mechanical engineering, the first in his family to go to college; Pidge, 19, a junior in computer engineering and kind of spectacularly bad at being left to their own devices; and Allura, 30, in her last year of a Ph.D. in physics, apparently the only one whose life isn't falling apart.
[a graduate school & university AU, in which everyone is stressed but trying their best]

Summary
As soon as Aubrey Thyme, psychotherapist, had opened her office door and seen her new client, Anthony J. Crowley, sitting in her waiting area, she was observing and assessing him. At first glance, she paid attention to the following:
--His clothing was expensive and stylish;
--He wore very strange but noticeable cologne;
--His relationship to the seat he occupied could only, very loosely, be described as “sitting;”
--He looked angry;
--He was wearing sunglasses.What Aubrey Thyme, a professional, thought, upon first seeing her new client was: you’re going to be a fun one, aren’t you?

Summary
“This wasn’t me, you know,” Crowley says, the words out of his mouth before he’s made the conscious choice to utter them. “Not just the library, but the whole civil war. You know me; I’ve mostly been getting drunk at Bacchanals.”
“I know,” says Aziraphale.

Summary
Everyone’s always so easy on him. They accept his personality for what it is, they don’t push. And he’s not complaining. He doesn’t like it when people are harsh, not at all, but he’s hit a wall with this gentle treatment. Maybe… maybe he needs someone to really tell him how it is. Without coddling him. The idea is terrifying.
Just how much does he want to be a hero?
