Ash in the Fields by Cromulette

Summary
In the deep South, a young man leaves behind the only home he's ever known, a land scorched by memory and silence. With nothing but an old, beat up truck and the weight of what cannot be forgiven, he drifts until he finds himself in a quiet town where the soil feels different and the air does not choke him as much.
Work comes easy enough, fixing what is broken and keeping his head down, but peace does not. The past lingers in every sound of hooves, every crack of thunder, every flicker of flame that dances behind his eyes. When he crosses paths with a rancher as stubborn as the land he tends, both men begin to learn that some things cannot stay buried forever, not in earth, not in flesh, not in heart.
What follows is not salvation. It is something quieter, something that grows even in the dust.

Excellent long fic. Western AU which is hard to say no to, as for me :)
Writer can quite masterfully balance angst and humor (both aspects are brilliantly executed, angsty parts were so good, jesus), but the most prominent thing in this work for me is descriptions of spiritual peace with yourself, nature and people you care about. There's a lot of text but it works here I think.
Kind of has vibes of this one song "I Thought I Saw Your Face Today" instrumental wise, lyrics probably don't fit, but eh.. it's more about the sounds and maybe yellow colour on the album cover
Hope this fic gets more love -

Summary
In the distinct way the universe worked, there was a formidable adversary gifted upon each person at one point in their lives. For some, it was the tyrannical weight of living beneath a malevolent dictator. For others, it was being brought into a world in a body that was not a reflection of their mind. Some had to live, knowing death was their only God given solace. A select few were forced into hiding, for a boy holding another boy's hand was quite possibly too heinous for the world to witness. As for others, it was living with the constant feeling of heaviness, excruciating and so vile, that the release of death was more favorable than having to live another day.
But the sun did shine every morning, and though it went down in the evening, it left with the promise of returning. And with each retreat beyond the edge of the horizon, rose the feeling of hope that tomorrow would be a better day.
The blonde growled, but he didn't relinquish his hold on the smaller. "The hell were you thinking?"
But all the boy could focus on were his eyes

Very precious. Lovely writing!! Really liked the chinmi detail repeating. And staring into each other eyes was very beautifully described.

Nitroglycerin's Stabilizer by The_Midnight_Elements

Summary
A Stabilizer is an additive or an environmental condition that prevents the degradation of an Element or a compound. Nitroglycerin is known to be extremely volatile - with only two known ways of creating some kind of steadiness in the Explosive Chemical.
Bakugo has only known instability in his life. From the deadly chemical that seeps from the pores on his hands, to his home life. If the universe hadn't had it out for Bakugo, he would have been born a Mundane. Instead he was born as a Guide. One half of a Sentinel/Guide Bonding - the half that is suppose to be stable and emotionally giving. To help Sentinels use all their senses safely. Too bad the universe didn't care enough to give Bakugo the skills to be that.
The Universe had it out for him or maybe, just maybe, it was preparing him for something more...

🐈⬛🐺Awww, absolutely fantastic.
Haven't really read a lot of Sentinel/Guide aus, this is the 2nd one. The descriptions of the mental stuff and Spirit realm are very cool and it was fun to imagine the shields, walls and spirit animals (I hope I don't get confused about these when I look through my bookmarks later lol). Also, the image of Midoriya's Jack Rabbit is very vivid, his gimlet eyes are fitting.
Physiological torture was really spine-chilling (no pun intended), it's impressive he's still sane.
Overall, enjoyed reading this story! Especially the parts where they are protective of each other.
No smut :) -

Summary
Kirishima is living a normal, human life with his normal, human family, dealing with normal, human problems, like having sharp teeth and sprouting scales from time to time. Just normal, human things.
When he crosses paths with Bakugou, a grumpy foreign adventurer whose dream is to fight a dragon, nothing can stop him from coming along, not even Bakugou himself. Surely, it won't be hard to hide his little "problems" while living in close proximity with someone, right?
Right?
It didn’t take him long to reach the lemon grove, and he walked straight to the little patch of trees covered in beautiful, ripe fruits. Lemons were by far the least popular fruit they had among the local wildlife but sometimes, Eijirou found a bunch of wild boars that ran away as soon as they saw him approaching, or even stray cats and dogs. It was rare, but nothing out of the ordinary.
What Eijirou didn’t expect, though, was to find a blond man standing among the trees, arms full of lemons and oranges. In all the years he’d spent in this orchard, it was the first time Eijirou had ever seen a lemon thief.Series

Summary
Sero nods. “It’s the chance of a lifetime, really,” he says. “We want you to date Bakugou, for the sake of his reputation with the press. Some public appearances, a few ‘candid’ photos. For at least a couple of months.”
“Bakugou sent you to ask me to date him?” Kirishima asks, baffled.
“Of course not. We, his people, are asking you to date him. He’s going to have to get on board, if he wants his career to survive. And in the bargain, Riot will get all sorts of publicity, because their lyricist will be dating one of the industry’s hottest stars. A win for everyone.”
When Kirishima Eijirou's band hits the big time, he's not prepared for his newfound fame. He's even less prepared to meet the actor he's been crushing on for years, or to start dating him as a publicity stunt. The closer Kirishima gets to Bakugou Katsuki, the more he realizes he's in over his head. But it's hard to stop, once his heart is in it.
