Summary
A pair of pupil-less teal eyes meet his own. Besides the small feathers sprouting on its cheekbones and its lack of ears, its face otherwise resembles a human's.
It opens its mouth—too wide, too much, just like everything else about it—revealing a set of sharp canines.
“Oh, shit,” is what comes out. “You saw me.”
When Nicholas D. Wolfwood finds a curious advert in the newspaper, he packs his suitcase and his cat, and leaves for the seaside in hope of peace and quiet—unaware the little cabin on the beach is already inhabited by a creature beyond his worst nightmares.

Summary
Izuku Midoriya, a meek quirkless middle schooler, dreamed of becoming a hero who could save everyone with a smile despite no one believing in him. Even his own mother, the only person who didn’t look down on him, never said the words he wanted to hear. For all intents and purposes, he’d be lucky to land a dead-end minimum-wage job. However, his fate dramatically changes one day after an encounter with a mysterious individual.
After making a deal, one that he can’t even remember, Midoriya’s life begins to change for the better and the worse. He may no longer be powerless, but these newfound powers come at a cost. He might be able to impress All Might, but many other heroes are wary of his existence. He may finally have some friends, but his past still follows him.
What exactly happened to him that night? Why did that mysterious man help him to achieve his goal? Who are these new villains? Where is the world heading? When will the voices in his head just shut up!?
Will Midoriya be able to use the powers granted to him to defeat the ancient and new evils, or will he be broken down by the very system he is tasked to protect? This story is the journey of how Deku becomes a hero above all others.

Summary
Fluixon finds himself stuck– literally and metaphorically. He's in small-town Appalachia. His life cycles like laundry, rolling over itself again and again. It's gloomy, sad, and then more and more falls in on him as it cycles on.
But hey, he makes friends along the way, and maybe the sense of dread hanging over his head or the smell of roadkill isn't all there is in this place.

The Strings of Fate by Thotfully_Thotful
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
20 Jan 2025
Tags
Summary
Midoriya Izuku, 28 years old, one half of the team that makes up Dioscuri. Entirely quirkless, he is the first and possibly only, quirkless pro hero.
Nedzu, the other half of the team that makes up Dioscuri. With the quirk High Specs that granted him increased intelligence. He is the only non-human pro hero in all of the world.
Alone, these two would have never made it into the profession. With quirkless being less and less common with each generation; Izuku was never given any opportunity to follow his dream. Nedzu, being a chimera, wouldn’t have been able to get far on his own. The system was twisted in favor of humans only; animals couldn’t legally be heroes. Alone they were cast out of society.
Together they formed the pro-hero and principle of Yuuei High School: Dioscuri.
Or: the AU where Nedzu and Izuku fake being one hero so that they can utterly wreck the commission for denying their dreams.

Tim does Tiktok - the wider universe by dickgraysonmybeloved (Agathawouldbeproud26)
Fandom Batman - All Media Types
20 Jan 2026
Summary
Basically Tim gets a TikTok account, everyone else suffers
Irregular updates. Will update eventually
Main fic is “things done after 2am”, all other fics are either spin offs (aka they were fun to write but didn’t fit the vibe of the main fic) or bonus stuff that is coming
IN THE WORKS
- Jason goons pov outsider fic
- gala bingo
- chap 11 of main
- pov outsider Gotham TikTok fic
- justice league pov of… thisjoin me on tumblr @dickgraysonmybeloved for more info or just to vibe!!
They are more Cryptids (spelling?) in this, no powers maybe but they lean heavily into it and aren’t correcting ANYONE any time soon. Like there’s no “they’re actually human” reveal, they are Gotham’s weird little freaks okay
FLUFF AND CRACK ONLY very light angst maybe, but I personally prefer fluff and crack fics!! Like what you like, but I won’t be writing anything angsty or hardcore hurt etc.

“If they were causing you trouble, you should’ve told me,” Yeosang sighed. “Really, a whole month is overkill.”
“Eh, I’ll be fine,” Mingi dismissed. “As long as I figure out how to get some won, I’ll be set.”
“Need a job?”
Mingi perked up at that. “Wait, what?”
“I need another baker. I know you don’t know much about the human world, but I’ll pay you to help me out nonetheless.”

Summary
Helia used to be Helianthus Potter, Girl Who Lived, Woman Who Conquered, Chosen One, She Of Too Many Dumb Names. Now she's decided to let the cards fall as they will and embrace being Just Helia(na Evans), broke high school dropout, grocery store cashier, supplier of illegal(ly magical) substances to Gotham's (most recent) murderous gang lord.
A significant upgrade, if you ask her.
OR,
The process by which two idiots meet, get to know each other, fall in love, do not fall in love, lie to each other, team up, stop lying, fight crime, fight each other, fight FOR each other, cry, bleed all over the good curtains, confess their true feelings, and drive everyone around them insane. Only sort of in that order.

Summary
Timothy Jackson Drake is known for many things, by many people.
Being CEO of Wayne Enterprises at the age of seventeen. Being the third Robin, then Red Robin. A teammate of Young Justice, one of Gotham’s vigilantes, Bruce Wayne's adopted son, nepo baby (two times over), highschool dropout, etc, etc.
Point is, many people know and see him as many different things.
One of the few commonly shared viewpoints, however, is that Timothy Jackson Drake is an ominous, cryptic little fuck.
