Summary
I was thinking about Epilogue Dirk and what he might think of people like me who strongly relate to him, under the assumption that we're included in his UltSelf sight. So this is him realizing his ultimate self but before the Epilogues actually begin. It's really just me being a narrator and Dirk also being a narrator.

Summary
“Dustin?” he manages, when he finally catches his breath. It’s all he can think to say. Not what are you doing here? Not how did you know where to find me? Not why did you just crash your own car into a lamppost?
It’s not like Dustin was ever the answerable kind of question.
Dustin spits some blood to his left and breaks out into an uneasy smile. He limps forward, leaning on Will’s shoulder. His breath comes out in hasty wheezes. “Been driving three days straight,” he says, like that explains it. “Can I sleep in your bed?”
Then he faints into Will’s arms.
It’s the fall of 1994. Will starts a new life in San Francisco under a pseudonym, seeking refuge from his past. Dustin works for the feds, clearing up the last ghostly traces of the Upside Down.
Until the details of a strange new case force him to bring Will in under investigation.

"Who died and made Tango king, anyway!" Bdubs says.
“Some old fool, I heard,” Etho says, and Bdubs starts to take it as the insult he expects but when he jerks his head to harass him, Etho’s truly distracted digging through his things and starting to talk again. “I’m behind on all the new history around here. You'll have to fill me in."
“You really wanna get caught up? You know, there’s this story about this story about a greedy old king...”
“Tell me,” Etho says, and Bdubs does.
As the time king and kingmaker, Bdubs changes the day and crowns some kings. And crowns some kings, and changes the day, and changed the kings, and tells the story. And does it again, until it's right.

Summary
The war is over.
You have never lived in a place without war. Maybe that’s why you chase it. Maybe that’s—
The simple summary of things. You almost died, but you didn’t, and now the blood on your hands is just the blood in your veins, and your older brother glares at you from across the table sat against his will on a chair bolted to the floor. You roll that phrase around your head for a bit, perhaps more than you should, because it doesn’t suit him.
Against his will. Touya never did anything against his will, to the best of your flimsy recollection. Dabi certainly didn’t.
Or: Shouto visits Touya in prison. This, besides a tragedy, is a choice.

Toga Himiko is The Villain, Carmilla, friendless girl, the bad guy who must be defeated.
Uraraka Ochako is The Hero, Uravity, girl with many friends, the good guy who will save the day.
Atleast, that's the story they were told.
TLDR:
The societal story of Heroes and Villains slowly breaks down as we follow our characters through their story and watch those labels fall away.Series

Summary
Dirk is not a liar by nature, but he is skilled in the art of obfuscation. And the picture the negatives paint is one of tin cans, trash and puppets as the only company for weeks.
She chews her lip as she considers her next words. If pleasantries run into walls, then…
“Is everything like, okay?”
Alternatively subtitled, let’s explore what a sylph of space alpha kid could hypothetically be like.
