The Lonely Guardian

by Blanc_et_Noir

Dream didn't know what came over him, he wanted some time to think. Some time turned to days and thinking turned to building a nice home. Days turned to weeks and the home is bigger and cozier now. Weeks turned to years and it's been a while since Dream has seen his friends. Still, they're definitely living a more peaceful life now that he's gone, right? (Or, Dream left and started a cottagecore after the L'manberg Revolution and a Dreamon took his spot and the plot continues as it does in canon. Except, we have a Dream who likes to stay in his cottage and help his injured friends without telling them who he is, exactly)

Five Times Yennefer thought Jaskier was Nothing but an Annoyance (and one time she realised he was so much more)

by notebooksandlaptops

Emotion was power; she knew that well enough by now. If she had ever been unsure of it, ever been worried that the way of Sabrina was better, those fears had been doused by the fire she had unleashed when battling Nilfguard. Emotion was dangerous, yes, but it was power. It gave her power. Her emotions, her pain, her love. Geralt – in his own way – gave her power due to what feelings he inspired in her. Cirilla – beautiful, wonderful, Cirilla – gave her power due to the care she felt for the child. But the fourth member of their travelling party brought nothing to her expect the feeling of annoyance at his presence. -///- Or, Five Times Yennefer thought Jaskier was Nothing but an Annoyance, and one time she realised he was so much more

My Hero Academia

Hitsuzen

by Methoxyethane

He would have ended up falling for Izuku at some point no matter what, he was certain. No matter what path life took him down he'd have still ended up here, not because of anything as elaborate as destiny or fate but instead due to the simple fact of inevitability. Because Izuku was Izuku and Shouto liked just about everything about him, couldn't help but admire him and would always want to be around him, just for who he was.
