Summary
It wasn’t supposed to be so cold today.
William grumbles internally as a gust of cold air cuts through his thin sweater. The metal mailbox freezes his fingers as he tugs it open with both hands, cursing the way the door sticks every time. He didn’t bother putting on a coat just to walk down the driveway, but now he’s wishing he had.

The aftermath of John's first talk with Claire after his suspension, but the weather is a little different that day. This has a greater effect than you'd think.

Summary
Yesterday, John was the most powerful student at Wellston.
Now... things are a little different.
“I’m warning you now, nobody will rescue you. Nobody cares about you... So unless you want to face the...ah, consequences, I suggest you school your mind and behave.”
But John has never been very good to listening to what other people tell him.

Summary
Sera has found out about John's secret, but there's one thing she doesn't understand.
Or: the exact dialogue from John and Sera's fallout in episodes 173-174, but something else is going on behind the scenes. John is the only one who knows...
My (very late) entry for the Unordinary writer's discord challenge from October. Prompt: horror!

Summary
By a random stroke of chance, Arlo and Rei are affected by a mysterious, unregistered ability. It's untrained, circumstantial, and weak beyond the detection threshold of most ability gaugers, but even a weak ability can make a big difference at just the right moment.
Or: 5 minutes doesn't change much. 5 minutes changes everything.

Summary
Kim Dokja, in a very brief moment of stupidity, sees Yoo Jonghyuk and thinks that he has met a kindred soul, a fellow slave to capitalism. Or in other words, a fellow modern day salary worker.
What Kim Dokja does not know is that Yoo Jonghyuk is very much not a fellow salaryman.
Yoo Jonghyuk is the CEO.
And in another equally brief moment of stupidity, Kim Dokja fails to realize this fact.
For months.

Fave John vigilante AU! The characterization is very good. Also I adore the news headlines/interviews/social media formatting, makes the story feel extra lifelike!

Summary
"The best strategy against Mondstadt," Kaeya says, "is to take her down before war even begins."
"Wouldn't that be the best way for any nation?" Diluc says. Then, "why am I still humoring you about this?"

Summary
The first time that Alhaitham killed someone was when he was five years old.
Afterwards, he had been taken in by his grandmother. She had sent him to a child psychologist, from whom he had learned the right words and actions to present normalcy. It had not been the psychologist’s intention to teach him this, but it had been useful.
There are certain matters from Alhaitham's childhood that he thought he'd long since left behind.

Alhaitham gets a depressing backstory! This author has several good fics :)

Summary
Midoriya Izuku has always been written off as weird. As if it's not bad enough to be the quirkless weakling, he has to be the weird quirkless weakling on top of it.
But truthfully, the "weird" part is the only part that's accurate. He's determined not to be a weakling, and in spite of what it says on paper, he's not actually quirkless. Even before meeting All-Might and taking on the power of One For All, Izuku isn't quirkless.
Not that anyone would believe it if he told them.
(This story now has a TV Tropes page!)
