Summary
In un mondo dove la popolazione viene divisa tra poveri e ricchi. Fama e messi all'oscuro.
Hellevator, posto altamente sovrappopolato. Dove ci vive il popolo comune, con una vita al quanto pietosa e dolorosa. Ma c'e un modo per cambiare la sorte. L'ascensore. Hellevator,chiamata così tra la fusione di hell(inferno) e elevator (ascensore). La sorte della fama e ricchezza sfortunatamente non è una cosa che possono decidere gli abitanti di hellevator. Ma di chi vive nel lusso più sfrenato, chi ha una scelta così sfrenata su molteplici vite che non gli appartengono, ma che servono per portare avanti la loro popolazione e luogo abitativo, l'Alto. Decidono poche persone, il minimo indispensabile, ogni anno.
Quando otto ragazzi, dalla sfrenata voglia di vivere, di avere fama e amore, pieni di volontà di diventare famosi con la loro musica decidono di scappare da hellevator, se nessuno ti sceglie o ti dia una via, scegliti e createla. È questo in cui gli Stray kids credono. Otto ragazzi, chiamati i "prescelti" decidono di evadere da Hellevator a segreto di tutti. La loro evasione sarebbe dovuta andare alla grande. Ma gli imprevisti nascono come funghi, ma non mollano. Non fin quando sono uniti. O forse...- Language:

Summary
Yearning was dangerous. It offered hope in places where hope didn’t exist, couldn’t exist. For years Masa had yearned for the love he read about in storybooks, only to realize far too late that what he longed for was nothing more than an unattainable wish. So instead of letting himself be poisoned further, terrified that he would become little more than a ghost if he stayed, he left. Alone and unseen he had left the place he once called home, and he was all the better for it.
Or: Masa is an invisible child who much prefers not to be seen. That starts to change, however, when he wanders into Moominvalley and meets a family eager to prove to him that visible or not, he deserves to be loved.

Summary
A string of strange disappearances catch the attention of Team Free Will. It’s business as usual, except the magic involved is volatile, and while they’re plus one Castiel, they’re minus one angel of the Lord. Trying his best and making everything worse, Dean just wants to get back to the bunker, where everything made more sense and Cas was actually talking to him.
But first they have a case to solve, and with things like “we need to be extremely careful” and “active threat” being thrown around, Dean really couldn’t have predicted that the main issue would be his keys to the Impala getting pinched out of existence.
Good thing he knows a guy with an exact copy.

Summary
Sage doesn’t remember falling, but they do remember the impact.
Waking up in a reality not your own is a startling realization. It breaks you in a way you never thought possible. Suddenly everything is new and no one knows you, not the real you, and no one ever will… Nothing makes sense, but Sage always takes the truth for cold, hard facts.
It's a fact that they are now in a fantasy novel. It’s a fact that they are now a cookie. It’s a fact that “Sage” has possessed the body of “Shadow Milk”. It’s a fact that they must survive this cold, harsh reality they have now found themself in.
They are being watched. They are being hunted. They are losing this battle of mental fortitude, and Sage isn’t sure they can make it out alive.
Or
This is my version of a yandere transmigration story for this fandom! It's like one of those transmigration manga you can find on Webtoon, but I add my own spin on it. IT WILL GET DARK! Violence and threats are frequent in this fiction, so please read at your own risk! Stay safe and healthy! I'm writing this fic in between my other ones as a "funny ha ha" more than anything else. Updates will be slow!

Summary

“Sorry kid it’s not gonna happen.” The doctor huffs, “Oh dear so you really think there’s something wrong with him then? Most of the other kindergarteners in his class have already begun to show signs.” Inko looked down at the shaking Izuku,
The doctor continued, “My records say that you’re a fourth generation quirk user. What powers do you and the father have?”
Inko ponders for a moment, “Nothing too special, I can float small objects towards me, and my husband breathes fire. They’re useful enough I suppose.”
“Izuku should have already manifested one of these quirks or a combination of both. But after viewing his X-rays I don’t think he’s going to.”OR
In a world that acts cruelly to those who are different we join Izuku Midoriya a quirkless child vigilante working his way up to his dreams. Ensue chaos along side a loving family who show him love is unconditional.

Summary
The weak, flickering light cast by the UV rod beside his makeshift cot appears harsh. Painful. Hostile even. Something makes him freeze just shy of its threshold, brows furrowed in consternation.
He takes a step backward, clenching his fists. He feels better, stronger, healthier, untouchable even, all of which would go away if he stepped into the light – the light that promises a salvation he’s not so sure he really wants anymore—
