Summary
Instinct is a powerful motivator, and the ache for warmth in the coldest time of year is older than humanity, older even than the fossils in the Museum of Natural History.
Or:
There are so little Randall Tier centric fanfictions that I'm desperate enough to write one myself.

Summary
- Tabula Rasa –
A blank slate, the concept that the mind acts as a blank slate learning knowledge with no innate knowledge from it at the beginning. With origins from Aristotle and Ancient Greek and linking to the empirical way of gaining knowledge in the world. But, officially, named by John Locke in the 17th Century, this philosophical phenomena was important to development of the mind and other empirical theories on how knowledge was attained and formed in the mind. Many philosophers have added upon his vague discussion of a blank slate mind and one such important one was Avicenna. "The system of education helps to inform the empty mind of the youth."
Of course, he spoke in much more verbose language and, mentally, Druella could not recite what he wrote verbatim like Tom could, but she knew of the theory in its basics.
She saw what Tom was doing with Harry "Hadrian" Evans.
He truly was a blank slate, what with all those missing memories and random appearance. His lack of data and yet, there was something which Dippet could use to enroll him.
He was a puzzling little thing. And like a predator, the Knights wanted to swallow him whole.

Summary
Malcolm Fade did not have to walk into a church or temple or a cathedral to meet his goddess. He found her in a convenience store, chewing on a capped pen.
“Don’t get them.” She said, throwing a scathing look back over her shoulder before turning back to Malcolm.
“Get what?” He asked stupidly, brain struggling to catch up with the logic that had left at the first sight of her.
“The slushies.”

the biology of a sandpiper by undyingsnore
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia (Anime & Manga)
22 Dec 2024
Tags
Summary
Sometimes, he draws sandpiper eyes, staring back at him with eternally innocent, black saucers; round and pure. He could gaze within those eyes forever, lose himself in the swirls of saturated wild. They don’t look at the world and think of concrete mountains or billowing smog. He’s entirely sure that all they see is the world right in front of them, they see the sandy beaches and hear the soothing crash of waves. He sketches their beaks and with chicken-scratch he draws deadly claws swooping, catching the letters printed in yawning black ink. Feathers dance across the page in swirling patterns like that of a migrating flock: down the coast, through Japan, past China, and finding their place somewhere secret in Southeast Asia.
Beside one bullet point, he draws their footsteps in the sand before the list abruptly ends, as if a wave swept away the words. The lists he drafts are always small and short, like he can’t quite figure out the difference between them; between that of a sandpiper and a beautiful, mythical golden eagle. What separates them from him?
or; Midoriya Izuku is an anomaly within this word-- a dying species --but that certainly won't stop him from chasing dreams in little sandpipers.

The Fable of the Rabbit and the Moth by Grey_eyed_Ceridwen
Fandoms: 銀魂 | Gintama (Anime & Manga)
10 Dec 2024
Tags
Summary
Adrenaline was coursing through him, fear spreading through the room and tasting sweet at the back of his throat. There were gunshots and shouting and he was ripping Harusame apart with only his hands, but in his mind he was doing the same thing as since he’d first seen the one-eyed samurai fight.
He was wondering, with a childish sort of delight, what would happen if the rabbit and the moth danced with one another in battle, the rabbit fast and agile and leaping but always a creature of the dirt - and the moth that had been human once, so frail and burning up even as it commanded the night sky.
Who was it really that would be crushed?
A dance that could destroy them both and unbalance the whole world. His blood thrilled at the thought.
