"I'm all alone in this castle, Hinata." Even as he addressed her, Naruto did not seem aware of her presence, looking blankly beyond the horizon. And she didn't understand his words, as no more than ten feet away from them, inside the architectural monolith, the party was in full swing, just like every other night.

Wheatley is not good at fighting. It's not a thing he likes to do, and under regular circumstances, the last thing he would ever do would be to pick a fight with Chell. Not only because he loves her, but also because he's a little afraid of her and knows he would never actually win. It's not like him to argue with her. It's not like him to snap or become short tempered with her.
Another thing that is not like him is that he does not return from work the next day.

[HIATUS]
Lawrence dips a finger into its socket and swirls it around, tilting his head to the side in intrigue. You drop next to him, thigh bumping into his as you reach down to join him. Your fingertips graze the bumps and ridges of each tooth, curling around it's jaw and up to where it's ear once was.
"Can I keep it?" You find yourself asking without intending to speak.
He looks up at you for a second, before watching your finger trace patterns on the forehead of it's skull. "If I can keep some of it too."
"What do you want?" He pulls his finger out of the cats eye socket and looks over its body.
"The spine."
"And I can keep the rest?" You smile at him, and he nods in return.

“Why don’t you just heal yourself, then?” Aziraphale asked. The demon looked about an inch away from discorporation.
Crowley struggled to push himself into an upright position, thin frame wracked with another burst of coughing as he did so. When he finally recovered enough control to look up at the angel, there were flecks of blood on his lips.
“Well, I would have done,” he said, rather petulantly, “only some bloody bastard had to go and bless me, didn’t he?"England, 1349, the middle of the 14th century. The black death rages, and Aziraphale has to help a dying demon escape from a church.

At this point, Guan Shan is no longer sure if it’s in his nature or if it’s been nurtured by the war.
After all, you can only nurture the best of the best when the world is slowly coming to a fucking end.
or: Pacific Rim AU, in which Guan Shan is a hopeless recruit, He Tian is a legacy more than anyone can handle, and the world is crashing down around their ears faster than they can process. It's a matter of finding something worth fighting for — but their futures are slipping through their fingers with every passing minute.

Summary
“Bokuto, be quiet.”
Bokuto’s mouth closed with a snap, the sudden sound echoing in the warm full air of the coffeeshop. He scratched again at the bare expanse of skin on his chest that rose above the collar of his forest green sweater, the bright red marks behind evidence of his too harsh motion.
He opened and closed his mouth once, twice, before a squeak pushed past his lips. “Kenma, do we… ya know? Should we…”
Kenma’s eyes once again narrowed on the cafe behind Daichi, who forced himself to not turn around to gawk openly at whatever it was that had Kenma’s attention. Before he could make any move to turn around, Kenma’s small hands were on his arms, pulling him back to the counter, his cat-like eyes glowing golden in the warm light.
“No, I don’t think we should. I want to see what happens.”

Daichi Sawamura was used to staying still.

More than 50 people, stuck within a dreamscape. More than 50 people who barely know each other and don't know what’s going on.

It seems that many fates will be intertwined tonight.

Death Need Not Apply by Salt00

Summary
No one noticed when Izuku manifested his quirk. Not at first.
A week later and people began to take notice. After a statistically improbable week without a single death, people took notice. After deadly wounds were shrugged off like nothing, people took notice. Time passed and still no one could die. When the city of Musutafu became engulfed in the phenomenon dubbed 'The Zone', people were wary. No one could uncover what caused The Zone. It was an unknown, some claimed. It went against the laws of the world, some claimed. It was profitable, others claimed.
Humans adapt. It's what they do. When faced with the bizarre, humanity adapts. The strange becomes mundane.
The rest of the world looks on in horror.
Izuku's quirk emits a massive no-kill zone around him. This has consequences.
