    Summary

    Endeavor dies.

    He dies in excruciating physical agony alongside what he can only think to describe as a state of complete emotional paralysis. He dies in a swirl of scorching white-blue flame, as beautiful as it is deadly, and he takes a final breath that’s choked with ash and grime and dust and so much heat.

    And then—

    “The symbol I strove to be…” he hears All Might saying, somewhere to his left. “That isn’t the path for you to follow. Take your time to figure out the way you ought to do things.”


    (Or: Enji Todoroki and the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad time loop.)

    Summary

    “I don’t really care about my birthday, honestly. It’s not a big deal.”

    Suddenly, the man is back in front of him, setting a plate in front of Buck.

    “Alright,” The man says mostly to himself, reaching forward with a hot pink bedazzled lighter, clicking it on to light what is in front of Buck: an old fashioned donut from the coffee shop with a tea light balanced in the middle he recognizes from a restaurant nearby. He lights the candle, cupping a hand around it to protect it from the breeze, and hands the lighter back to a young girl walking past, thanking her.

    “What is happening?” Buck asks quietly, staring at the man in front of him. He doesn’t answer, just starts very softly singing.

    “Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear…”

    “Buck,” He smiles.

    “...dear Buck, happy birthday to you,” He moves his hand away from the flame and pushes the plate closer to Buck. He sits in disbelief for a short moment, but leans forward and blows out the candle. The man smiles wide and Buck can’t help but laugh.

     

    Or, pain and loneliness manifests in ways probationary firefighter Buckley doesn't quite understand. When he needs a friend, the world brings him Eddie.

    Summary

    “Buck is very important to you, isn’t he?” she says, tone neutral and level.

    “Yeah, he’s my best friend.” Eddie answers immediately.

    “Right, of course,” she nods. “But do you ever think that maybe there’s something there between the two of you?”

    Eddie feels momentarily dizzy at the implication and he digs his nails into his palms, staring straight ahead.

    Summary

    “There, uh, was a girl after Ana. Her name was Marisol but…,” Eddie says, looking in Sophia’s general direction but not directly at her. “It didn’t work out. I fucked it up.”

    Not what she was expecting Eddie to say but, hey, she can work with that.

    “Hey, cheers to that,” Sophia says, clinking their wine glasses. “I’ve done my fair share of fucking up in relationships.”

    Eddie hums but doesn’t elaborate on the fuck-up. Which is fine. Sophia may be nosy but she’s not going to pry about something that Eddie clearly doesn’t want to talk about.

    “She was a nun,” Eddie says out of left field. Sophia nearly does a spit take.

    “A nun?!” Sophia shrieks. “No fucking way.”
