Summary
Kurosumi Saki had her life upended after the Final War. Now in her second year as a hero student, she transferred into the famous Class 2A. With villainous activity still slow after Deku and Class 1A's triumph over All For One, the steady increase in illegal support items has the Pros and students alike trying to unravel the mystery of who the suppliers are and where they are coming from. While the pressures of proving her worth and the lingering ghosts and traumas of Saki's past push her to her limits, forcing her to trust in her new classmates and years of dedicated training. And what started as a rivalry between the promising new transfer student and the famous Bakugo Katsuki blossoms into a strong friendship and maybe more.
Will their bond and the friends she's made be enough to break the toxic thread between her and her father? Can the Heroes put a stop to the black-market support items before a more sinister plot is revealed?
Title from “The Hero” by Nathan Wagner

Summary
“Take them yourself if you want them so much.”
It was a challenge. Will could see it in his eyes, a challenge Mike didn’t expect Will to succeed at. But Will had had enough of being the one who was always flustered. So, he approached Mike, who at first stepped back, surprised, and tugged at his lower lip, ordering him to open up.
It was Mike’s turn to transform into stone. Will then touched Mike’s teeth, resisting the urge to pass his fingers over his canines and touch his tongue. He felt Mike’s startled breath on his knuckles. Will gulped, and he took out the fangs. A string of spit hung between them and Mike’s mouth, so Will put them quickly in his mouth, relishing in Mike’s still hot saliva. If it was the only thing he could get from him, he would take it.
OR
July 1990. Will spends his summer break in Hawkins. He is filling his time by acting in Jonathan’s short horror film for college. But to his dismay, his co-star is none other than Mike Wheeler, whom he hasn’t talked to for six months. Worst, he plays his human best friend, and Will might just have to take a bite of him.

Summary
“How many dates is this?” Verity asks, idly. “At some point, don’t you have to start wondering if he’s the problem, not the dates.”
“Thank you for your input, Vee,” Mobius sighs. “Don’t you have some tables to check up on? Or...”
He loses his train of thought as the man at the table leans forward languidly like a cat, resting his elbows on the table and gifting his current date with a Cheshire smile. A finger decorated with two thin gold rings above the middle knuckle traces around the edge of the highball glass suggestively and a lock of raven’s wing black hair falls out of his stylishly messy top knot and across his face.
Mobius wonders why someone like that feels the need to work so hard for attention, but the guy in the polo shirt with the perfect teeth sitting across from him barely seems to appreciate it so maybe that’s why. Mobius sure as hell is having a hard time looking away. The slit in that skirt is probably going to kill him before the night is over.
OR
Mobius works at the bar that Loki brings all his first dates to. None of them go well. Maybe someone needs a shoulder to cry on?

Summary
"On their silent way home, the witch could feel the forest hold its proverbial breath at their passing; the wind seemed to want to gently sweep the boy’s hair, the sun washing over him didn't sting at all, the birds chirped curiously and the animals slowed to take a better look.

Summary
You came to Hawkins thinking it was temporary. A place to pause, not to begin. You didn't expect to be noticed. You didn't expect to stay.
After college, you spend the summer in Hawkins with your best friend, assuming nothing important will happen there. Steve Harrington seems easy to read - settled, rooted, ordinary - and therefore not your problem.
You're both wrong in the same way.
---
A post-canon, slow-burn story set in the summer of 1992 about misreading, small towns and choosing stillness without giving up movement.

Summary
Grief rewires everything.
For Tony Stark, that means a new country, a smaller life, and the impossible task of teaching his daughter how to be brave when he isn’t sure he remembers how. Australia offers sun, space, and the illusion of a fresh start—but grief follows him into every quiet morning and every moment Morgan reaches for reassurance.
Between half-unpacked boxes, school crises, and the steady presence of chosen family, Tony meets Loki: sharp-witted, guarded, and carrying a history of loss he keeps carefully concealed. Loki is not part of the plan—neither is the way Morgan trusts him, nor the way Tony begins to feel seen in places he’s kept locked down since Pepper left this world.
As lines blur between professionalism and connection, survival and hope, Tony is forced to confront a truth he’s been avoiding: healing doesn’t happen alone.

And Elia’s arrival shakes the ice that had begun to form around her heart.
Slow burn. Wounds that heal.
And a queen who, for the first time, finds someone who doesn’t look at her with fear…
nor with hunger for power. -

Summary
Seonwoo Aera never planned on colliding with the leader of the world's fastest-rising boy group—CORTIS. She's just a 16-year-old arts student—awkward, quiet, and desperate to stay invisible in a city that moves too fast for her. But fate (and maybe some bad timing) throws her straight into the orbit of Martin Edwards, the perfectionist leader of CORTIS, a Canadian-Korean idol who hides his restless ambition behind flawless performances.
To Martin, Aera is a distraction he shouldn't want but can't seem to let go of. To Aera, Martin is a hurricane-dangerous, dazzling, impossible to ignore. As rehearsals, scandals, and stolen late-night moments pull them closer, they discover that they're each other's mirror: his impatience against her hesitation, his hunger for respect against her fear of being seen.
But being tied to an idol isn't just romance—it's survival. Secrets slip through cracks, fans speculate, and the spotlight burns brighter every day.
And perhaps, it's a "high risk, high reward" of holding onto one another, even if it means broken hearts.
