    Summary

    Chilchuck erupted from his bedroll in one smooth movement that carried through his body into his hand, almost as if he’d been laying awake the whole time and plotting exactly how he was going to do it; and before Palinode understood anything, he had bounced a boot very hard off her human’s head.

     

    His Dark Materials/Daemon AU.

     

    In a setting where human souls take the form of separate animals, everyone knows that dog-souls are servants or soldiers - and Laios hadn’t wanted to be either.

    Summary

    “How precious are your futures?” asks the Sphinx. “How dear to you is the path you wish to take?” She bares her teeth in a cruel smile, and they all take an involuntary step back.

    “Wait,” says Laios suddenly. “Look at her teeth!”

    Yes, Laios,” says Izutsumi. “We’ve all noticed the fangs. This really isn’t the time—”

    “No,” says Laios, “those back teeth. She has molars- grinders. That means she’s an omnivore. But she can’t leave this circle, and you saw how nothing ventures within miles of this spot. I bet she hasn’t had anything other than…” he swallows, waving a hand vaguely at the pile of ex-adventurers, “...meat… for years .”

    “So…what?” asks Izutsumi.

    “Remember how good those marshmallows were?” asks Laios. “And that was only after a couple days without much of a varied diet.”

    “You want to bet all of our lives,” Chilchuck says slowly, “on making a Sphinx a nice dessert?”

    Laios smiles.

    Summary

    Shouto doesn't need a quirk to be a hero, and as far as he's concerned, he doesn't need anyone's help, either.

    Midoriya Izuku might just change his mind.

    Summary

    “You also told me to tell you codeword: Origami,” Froppy says with a little mirth in her words. “But I think you might be a tad too little to understand that.”
    “Oh,” Shouta says, and then relaxed as squeezing panic dissipated into the air, “That’s my time travel word. For when I’m a hero.”
