    Summary

    “Wilbur I can’t accept this, I can't take your guitar,” Wilbur waves him off with a dismissive hand.

    “It’s not really mine, just an old one we’ve had for years. If you don’t keep it it’ll just keep collecting dust in my room,”

    “I have hobbies, I don’t need to learn guitar.” Tommy insists. He looks between Wilbur and the guitar, still holding it awkwardly in the air.

    “You don't have to learn if you really don’t want to, I just thought you might appreciate something to keep you busy. And getting drunk doesn't count as a hobby, by the way,”

     

    Or- Years of floating through the foster system has done nothing for Tommy except to strengthen his tolerance for liquor. He's about ready to white knuckle it until he ages out of the system, but after six months at the Watson's he's starting to think that maybe the way he's used to doing things isn't normal

    Summary

    “Please, you know how this is supposed to work.” Bruce reached around, placing a hand on the heart-shaped crystal embedded in the top of his spine. The back was an odd place for a relic to manifest, Bruce was the first Golden Herald to ever do it. Bruce was the first Shimmer Scout to do a lot of things. “Don’t pretend like the Wardens would have ever chosen me for this. I was an accident. A mistake.”

    ***

    Summary

    Katsuki Bakugou was never rescued.

    He just closes his eyes and waits.

    No one comes.

    Until Deku moves.

    No Quirk. No chance in hell.
    But he runs in anyway—into the fire, into the sludge—and detonates everything.

    Because Katsuki breaks. On camera. In public. The world sees it.

    And what follows isn’t forgiveness.
    It’s war.

    A war of media trials and moral rot.
    Of weaponized children and institutional decay.
    Of trauma, betrayal, and the blood-and-bone resurrection of found family—carved out of grief, fury, and love too dangerous to name.

    This isn’t a redemption arc.
    It’s a horror story.
    It’s a survival manual.
    It’s a love story—just not the kind you’re ready for.

    This is the Demons Trilogy.
    Demons Run When a Good Man Goes to War
    Demons Flee from the Names Not Spoken in Heaven
    Demons Rise When a Good Woman Loves a Monster

    If this story has ever meant something to you, please share it—with your friends, your mutuals, your corner of the internet.
    Because this isn’t just a fic.
    It’s a signal fire.
    And someone out there still needs to see it burning.
