Summary
Remus John Lupin; most people would’ve described the recently turned five year old as reserved and kind. His mother, Hope Lupin, knew him to be a smart trouble seeking menace, and his father, Lyall Lupin, recognising his younger self in his son, knew that his son would become a great wizard, just like himself.
As much trouble as he caused his parents at times, they loved him with the entirety of their hearts and would rather suffer the unbearable pain that comes with being cursed by an unforgivable, than have their boy in any kind of suffering.
The sad reality is that not even a week after little Remus turned 5, his entire life changed, and not for the better. As much as his parents would’ve wanted to take his place and suffer in his stead, they couldn’t. As much as Lyall wanted to rewind time and retract his vile words, the words that angered the one responsible for his son’s agony. He couldn’t.
Somehow one of the things that broke their hearts the most was how their son, who was once fascinated by the moon, who enjoyed observing the moon right before he went to bed, would never look up at the night sky again, as he grew abnormally scared of the moon, no matter what phase it was in.- Language:

Summary
In the spring of 1944, the 104th Medical Battalion of the United States Army is disbanded, and its men reassigned to various infantry companies in preparation for their invasion of occupied France. For First Lieutenant Novak, this is less than helpful, as he has so far met his platoon’s designated medic a grand total of twice, and has both times found Sergeant Winchester to be the optimum combination of reckless, arrogant, and downright insufferable so as to make cohesive platoon function near impossible. When the time comes to move out, however, Castiel has to reconcile himself to the fact that men are going to go down and trust that Dean Winchester may well be the only person who can put them back together again. WW2 ETO infantry AU.

Summary
The day the sun and the moon met, neither knew that the other held everything for them.
The sun and the moon had been meeting across time and space through this universe and the next, though this would perhaps be the most fraught with destruction. Their hearts were spitfire and their hands reached across chasms great and teeming with roaring waters; they knew many lives and many forms, but here in this place, they were two young boys connected by the threads of fate tangled around their souls, pulling them closer against thrashing branches and furious winds set to keep their tragedy away from the world for just a little bit longer.When Izuku was four, he met a boy in the City of Dragons.
When Katsuki is twenty-two, his soulmarking ceremony confirms his worst fear: Deku is his soulmate. The boy he hasn't seen in years.
The threads of fate bind their souls together through fire and tragedy, leaving naught but smoking ruins in their wake.

Summary
Katsuki never expected to read a hero interview that wasn’t absolute shit, but he was straight up impressed by whoever this Ze was. They didn’t write the same vapid bullshit he’d come to expect in a hero society reliant on popularity polls for rankings. He’d always refused to entertain the media vultures, but something like this was worth his time. If Katsuki played it right, he might rise up the Commission rankings without becoming a media puppet. Maybe he could convince his boss, Hawks, to let him work whatever high profile case Eraserhead was on while he was at it too.
After having his dreams of becoming a hero crushed, Izuku was exposed to the harsh reality that most heroes were just public personas set up by the Commission to maintain public order. He could live his life dissecting heroes from a safe distance as the popular writer Ze and still spend his nights as a moderately legal vigilante without any complications. Izuku thought he'd left Kaachan behind after moving during the last year of middle school. That was until his latest hero profile subject, Red Riot, asked him to consider interviewing Ground Zero. Seven year later, he still apparently couldn’t say no to Kaachan.
