Summary
The cracks were forming. He knew, he could feel them. He knew others could see as well. Everyday the trenches ran deeper and the chasms got longer. He was going to fall, to loose it, plunge right into one of the cracks in his mind, in his sanity. However, he could act quite well and though the others knew there was something wrong, they didn't know how wrong and they thought they had no real cause for alarm. If one got shivers when looking into his eye, then surely that mad glimmer was a mere trick of the light. They didn't suspect the true madness lurking, waiting for the right moment to strike, to shatter him like so much glass.

Summary
The Konbe are the legends upon which Saiya-jin culture and society is based. Bardock could recite every story by memory, learning all of them from his uncle and older brother who raised him. They told stories of blessings that could be found in every family, and they inspired wishes in everyone. His uncle gave him a blessing the day that he came back to Planet Vegeta; he'd find someone to fulfill him. He had laughed at that the day that he was beginning to grow as a male; what could fulfill him more than his desire to fight?
Then he met the female that would become the biggest instrument of torture to his heart: Gine.

The son of the man who lost the Eagle of the Ninth would never be allowed a first command of his very own fort, would he?
Marcus is posted not to Isca Dumnoniorum, but to a wretched and run-down garrison north of the Wall. There he finds that he is the new centurion of a group of scouts and spies, all of them British. He has few supplies and no experience. His men distrust him. His superiors despise him. His second-in-command is an incompetent drunkard. And the local tribes are determined to kill all of them.
But the worst thing of all is one of Marcus' soldiers. He is an enigmatic, dangerous, and insubordinate man by the name of Esca, who makes Marcus yearn for terrifying things he has never before wanted and can never, ever let himself have...

Well-written, gloriously angsty, and nuanced, this fic gives Alex motivation and depth beyond simple ambition/competitiveness, while simultaneously showcasing the inherent imperialism of Tortallan society.
You'll never look at Duke Roger, Delia, or Alex the same way again.

Carlos is absolutely objective. It’s just that it’s quite hard to stay objective when you’ve got Hooded Figures living in your kitchen, radio news reporters stalking you with somewhat dubious baked goods, and everything is so soaked with chemicals, radiation and dark magic that half the time your food disparages your cookery skills while you’re trying to make dinner.

Summary
The relative harmony of Zootopia is still millennia away. The bronze age is a time of constant conflict, not only between species, but within them. In this age of xenophobia, perhaps bridges could still be built between rabbits and foxes. Or at least between one specific rabbit, and one specific fox.

Summary
He names himself Stark because he wants it to be true. Stark, he figures, is the American for Shtark, which is Yiddish for Strong, and that’s the one thing the thirteen year-old-boy who will one day be known as Howard Stark Sr. wants to be.
Neither Russia nor America were Prauge; perhaps here, if they wanted Strong Men, they'd have to become them themselves.

Summary
The first over-night trip off campus since the training camp was supposed to be a fun break from more intense work back home. But between a bleak introduction to chaos theory, a chilly reception from the locals, and the looming threat of a villain attack, Izuku has too much on his mind to properly enjoy the fresh air. But those worries are a light breeze compared to the hurricane that accompanies what he finds on the outskirts of town.
Or rather, what finds him.

Bookmarker's Notes
WARNING, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND READING BUTTERFLY WITH ZERO CONTEXT, SERIOUSLY
While working on Kayama’s art assignment, Yagi shares his passion for sci-fi and comics with his protegé. He loans Izuku a collection of old short stories, including Bradbury’s The Sound of Thunder. The hero classes go on a field trip to the small town of Jakku, where they learn about small-town heroism. They’re met with a cold reception and on his first patrol Izuku and his group find a pair of gruesomely murdered townsfolk. An investigation begins as U.A. attempts to complete the field trip. Izuku participates in a quirk showcase for the town, during and after which he feels a terrible sense of physical dread. This feeling, clawing at his ribs, follows him back to U.A..
Over the next month, the dread and anxiety dramatically worsens, and Izuku begins experiencing the sensations of his spine being pushed out of his body and other such crippling pains. Nightmares haunt him during the night and despite everyone’s best efforts, they can find nothing wrong with Izuku and no one is ever around for his worse attacks. One night, Izuku wakes to hear something coming for him. He hides behind his door from a ghastly winged wraith, who finds him and begins ripping him apart. By the time Aizawa and his flatmates arrive, he is alone and babbling about villains. Reviewing footage and looking for evidence, they find nothing.
During an exam, Izuku experiences an attack midair and falls 4 stories. Momo’s quick thinking saves his life, but he is so absorbed in his panic that he continues fighting robots until he is forcefully put down. Throughout a series of trips to hospitals and a large number of medical exams, nothing is found(they really do try their reasonable best though). One night, worried about his friend, Yuga prepares a cheese bento to leave on Izuku’s balcony. He goes out to deliver it and witnesses Izuku’s villain phase through his window without a trace, culminating in one of the most chilling text messages ever.
The school goes on lockdown and the teachers try to chase down Butterfly, as Izuku has named it, only to be crippled by the full force of it’s dread attack. Izuku sobs and laughs maniacally at proof that he isn’t insane. It is revealed that his classmates have all been reliving their deaths in their sleep and that Katsuki destroyed evidence(he was misguided) of Butterfly weeks prior. Butterfly continues to attack the safe room, trying to get to Izuku. Izuku fights Butterfly until his classmates finally shake off Butterfly’s sleep AOE. The heroes take Izuku all around the city, luring Butterfly away from the others, until Izuku finds refuge in Yagi’s apartment. They argue, and in the meantime, Butterfly visits and Yagi talks to and cares for him. Izuku is once again attacked, saving Yagi’s life, and the news catches sight of the duel.
They formulate a plan to lure Butterfly down into a kill maze(“...This place is a tomb.” “Let’s make sure it’s not yours.” “Right.” And he descended once more into the trap he set for himself.). Butterfly assumes Izuku’s visage, setting Katsuki on edge because he knows Izuku like the back of his hand. The heroes scramble, trying to save Izuku from Butterfly as Butterfly unleashes rage, havoc, and bloodshed upon the maze. In the hospital afterwards, Butterfly attempts to destroy Izuku from the inside out using a series of mental quirks. Aizawa stops him and saves Izuku by using Erasure and waiting for Butterfly’s body and mind to fail. This traumatizes Aizawa(Chapter 31-32), as well as Yagi(Chapter 32). Butterfly had assimilated himself into Izuku, and Izuku takes some time to learn which parts of himself are him, which are Butterfly, and gradually comes to terms with his traumatic experience.

Summary
“Hades and Persephone reborn huh,” Fury states then more than asks, “no need to ask which is which.”
Toni’s brows furrow even as dread begins to squirm to life inside of her.
But before she can say anything, before she can open her mouth and set the record straight, she hears it.
A murmur as loud as a scream from somewhere in the tomb silent bridge.
“That whole Merchant of Death thing,” someone off to the side faux whispers, “makes a lot more sense now.”
It echoes across the bridge like a gunshot.
