Summary
Gen Asagiri is a gentle soul, but everyone has their breaking point. When Senku is shot, something freezes and shatters within him. He will not be kind. He will do everything he can, the very best he can manage, to ensure not one more person he cares about is hurt.
Gen's POV in the beginning, swaps to Xeno's POV for the final battle and aftermath.
There was a book quote, Gen wasn't sure where he'd first heard it. There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man. Well, the Kingdom of Science had no shortage of gentle men. Beneath his masks, deep down where his true self hid beneath the layers of acting required to be so deep undercover, Gen Asagiri was also very, very angry.

Summary
The vivid clarity of the world around himself, draped in a dark cloak of night that his enhanced eyes saw through as if it were but a thin sheet; the crisp autumn air tickling the inside of his nostrils with such saturation that it almost felt like he could taste the coming winter on the tip of his tongue. The breeze that came from this altitude tickled his bare skin, and despite its ineffectual chill against his strengthened flesh, goosebumps climbed up his neck from the tactile sensitivity he bore against its breath.
Everything felt so real, realer and fresher than it'd ever been. If that made sense, which it probably didn’t.
His senses then were just so alive that he didn’t think he could recall a time he’d ever been so… aware, of everything.
Toji fucking Fushiguro. Who would've guessed. In the middle of Shibuya too, like, really?

Summary
Peter Parker ended up in Gotham with the cliché "Everyone Forgets You" trope, then found his way to the Metropolis and become a Daily Planet intern, and somehow still find his way to Gotham and photographs the vigilantes around to post it online.
No one told Peter that the fucking Bats are camera shy.

Summary
| This guy was weird. Did he not know who he was? Yeah, that was probably the explanation, no sane person would willingly house the feared Yiling Patriarch in their house… right?
“Hey, mister, didn’t you ask who I was?”
“Why would I care? I’m still waiting for an answer on why you were lying on the ground dying in what is basically my backyard.” |
Wei Wuxian falls off the cliff and dies. Or well, he should've. But when Cale's involved nothing goes 'as it should', right? So instead, Wei Wuxian wakes up very much alive, and very confused as to who this random person is. Why don't they recognise him? Why are they so clueless on literally everything, and why are they saying that the Burial Mounds is their backyard??

“Where’d you get this number?”
“From my dad’s files,” Allison said, sounding impatient. “Will you help me or not?”
“What the hell’s the rush?” Dean asked. “And why are you calling us anyway? You don’t even know us!”
There was a moment of silence, on both ends of the line for once.
“My dad went out on a hunt,” Allison finally said, and for the first time she sounded less than completely confident. “And he hasn’t been home in a few days. I didn’t know who else to call.”
