Summary
He was turned away from Gus, and looked at the opposite side of the café, at one of the tables. He stared for a moment, disbelievingly, then blinked his eyes, just to make sure he wasn’t seeing things. All other things were forgotten in a split second—the crime scene, Juliet, the pastries, Gus. His mind went blank.
All at once he felt anger, regret, worry, and—most intensely—guilt. How could he have not noticed her?
A face he never wanted to see on this side of the police tape. The person he cherished most deeply in the world, slumped over a cafe table and drenched in blood. Is the world really so cruel?

Summary
He wore the mask to hide his eyes. To protect others from himself.
With a quirk like his, he was a danger to everyone. He was a monster, a demon, ugly and scary. That’s what his Mama said, anyway.
So was it really that surprising when she left him in the woods?

Summary
Just figures that the first time he actually gets up the nerve to go through with it is the one time someone decides to notice him.
“Hey, kiddo. Mind if I sit with you?”
(Would they enjoy it, be happy he finally went through with it? Did they want a front row seat?)
Why can’t Izuku kill himself in peace, without some other hero trying to talk to him on a rooftop? (Let’s hope this conversation goes better than the last one.)

Summary
All at once, everything felt so much further away, so much colder than it was just a moment ago and it scared him.
If this was what dying felt like, he didn’t want to go.
He wanted to feel those fingers brush his hair away from his forehead, hear the whispered reassurances in his ear, see the love meant only for him in those brilliant, amethyst eyes.

(Or: Izuku is scared and doesn’t want to leave, Hitoshi is scared and tells him it’s okay. They’re sad, in love, and together in each other’s arms until the end.)

Summary
“You can’t hear me?” Crowley asked again, slowing down his words.
“Not even a bit,” the angel confirmed cheerfully. “But if you keep speaking slowly enough, I’ll certainly have more success. I’m sure I’ll get a better hang on lip reading in due time!”
...
Or, Aziraphale is deaf. This changes he and Crowley's relationship throughout the ages.

Summary
But instead of continuing with explaining why Superman was urgently summoned to Gotham on a seemingly normal Thursday evening, Bruce stopped working on the computer, staring up at Clark with that scowling mask. He stood suddenly and pulled down his cowl, revealing the pain-filled eyes it hid.
Clark took an automatic step towards his friend. “Bruce–”
“I need you to swear it. Swear to me, Kal, that you will never mention this again. No one can know about this.”
No, this wasn’t anything remotely close to an ordinary mission. Bruce was scared and struggling to hide it. His heart rate might be forced into a steady rhythm through sheer willpower and meditative breathing but his eyes…they hadn’t been so open and vulnerable in a long time.

Summary
Jason wasn’t all that happy about spending his night cleaning up someone else’s mess, and usually, he wouldn’t bother. Especially messes that forced him to work with the Bats. Especially messes that his predecessor got himself into. But as it was… well, Tim never called him. Never directly, anyway. And never unless it was important.
...
Or
Dick disappears in the middle of patrol one night, and all they manage to turn up is his dead body and no leads.
So when Dick Grayson, significantly more dead than before, shows up on Jason's doorstep, he's at a bit of a loss.
Talon!Dick Grayson meets the Outlaws fic.

Summary
“Calm down,” Aizawa murmured, his voice low and soothing. “You’re safe here.”
'Safe?!' Izuku thought wildly, his ears flattening again as he stared up at the two pro heroes, who were now watching him with curiosity and concern. 'How am I supposed to be calm when I’m literally in the house of two pro heroes?!'
--
Izuku has a quirk that allows him to turn into a cat, but as of now...He's kind of stuck like this, like a cat, for /months/. It's fine, though, it means that now he can't be chased by Eraser-Head! After months of running away from that man, he would never suspect he was a cat! He thought he cheated the system, except that being a cat—a kitten—is harder than being a human. And so he got pretty roughed up when a rock was thrown at him, and many other things piled up the same way snow or trash piles up on the street.
After an altercation with a dog that left him on the brink of death, a cat dragged him to the house of a human

Bookmarker's Notes
Aizawa’s cats are so kind and so wise, their advice made me cry (Ch 7-8)
