Summary
Ignis pulls a whistling kettle off of the stove. Noctis twitches at his side, a threadbare sock tickling his thigh under a heavy knit blanket. Gladio must be nearby, too; Prompto can hear the deep rumble of his voice, sending a shiver down his spine unbidden.
Maybe there’s no one here at all.
He’s lying still enough to be dead, he thinks.
At least he can hardly feel the cold anymore.Prompto can take care of himself. He's mastered the art of it in the years he's spent on his own, carefully weaving a delicate veil of explanations for the prince and his entourage.
He can juggle his classes, his work, and the endless piles of bills in the entryway. He can get by on the meager scraps left for groceries when rent is due.
At least until a frozen pipe and an ever observant advisor make it impossible to keep up the farce.

Summary
By law, packs take care of their own. Everyone has one, arranged by the gods and linked by powerful bonds of magic. All it takes is a touch to know who belongs with whom. All it takes is reciprocity in a shared dream.
Except, Cloud wants nothing to do with packs, or destiny, or magical dreams, not even if his packmates are the four most terrifyingly powerful and incredible men in the world. If he has his way, they’ll never even figure out that he’s meant to be with them.
Too bad he’s a terrible liar.

Summary
Quirkless, young adult Midoriya Izuku has a problem. Namely, he has a crush on his purple haired, tired-looking neighbor. They keep running into each other and the guy is actually pretty nice under that deadpan facade, has a sense of humor, doesn't seem to judge anyone for their quirk status, and is constantly spoiling any cat in the building that finds him. (He's also a shameless flirt.)
But Izuku has concerns. About the strange bruises and bloodied knuckles. About the weapons he's seen when stopping by for a cup of sugar. About the shady-looking figures he's accidentally spotted his neighbor meeting with. About the fact that right after the news reported a big crime bust, his neighbor came home beat all to hell and looking haunted.
Izuku has a problem. Namely, he has a crush on his neighbor, who he's pretty sure is secretly a villain. And he has no idea what to do with that.
(or: Adult!ShinZuku AU where Shinsou is an underground, undercover pro hero trying to find a lead on a case that may or may not involve the socially awkward guy living next door. Misunderstandings abound.)

Summary
It was terrifying, how easy it was to slip into it. How their bodies remembered the war and danced through it like a language. Light gripped L’s shirt like it was evidence. L bit Light’s lip like it was a thesis. Somewhere in the chaos, Light was laughing into the kiss—laughing through it—and L whispered, “See? You’re beautiful when you lose.”
“Fuck you.”
“You’re trying.”
“I hate you—”
“I believe you.”
“Then why—why do you—” Light’s voice cracked. “Why do you keep pushing me like this?”
L’s reply was too soft. Too cruel. Too kind.
“Because you’re only honest when you’re falling apart.”
Or, the exquisite agony of being seen.

Summary
“What does it mean to die for hope?” Hinata asked– voice laced with desperation. Komaeda tilted his head– but didn’t leave his gaze. He only stepped forward– Hinata’s legs refused to move.
“I could think of one example.” Komaeda’s eyes bored into his– glinting with something unfamiliar. “Dying by your hands would be dying for hope, Hinata-kun.”
───────────────────────────
HInata finds himself wandering, a little too far– as he’s confronted with the white-haired boy who seemed to have blissfully turned his world upside down. Tension boils over, and Hinata finds himself unable to pull away even if he tried.

Summary
The words on his skin were his everything. After everything he'd seen, done and been through, they were a reminder that Bruce Wayne still existed. That somewhere there was a person who would love him despite the coldness in his chest and the scars that roped their way across his skin. A reminder that he wasn't alone - that he wasn't destined to live forever in the shadows, silent and isolated. That somewhere out there was the other half of his soul.
He just wasn't expecting the other half of his soul to be an alien.

Summary
A process is recursive when it defines or contains itself; e.g., the Fibonacci sequence, which determines the next number as the sum of the previous two.
But not all recursive processes are mathematical. Recursion can happen in a temporal context when, for instance, the powerful magical force that is true love drags you back in time so it can create itself, endangering the fate of the Wizarding World—not to mention the very fabric of space and time—along the way.
