    Summary

    What could possibly go wrong when you decide to follow a semi-burnt feather you found in the middle of the night? Well, ...everything.

    After moving to Japan with your boyfriend and an unpleasant series of events that nearly killed you, you witness the number two hero meeting up with a villain. You decide to start investigating Hawks and, in the process, you will start developing feelings for him. In the meantime, a lot of secrets will get revealed that will turn your life upside-down. Let's just say that nothing is like it seems...

    An original side story to the canon which promises a wildly emotional and visual ride with lots of engaging and well-written original characters, all while blending into the canon through the relationship and struggles Hawks and the reader have.

    New chapter every Saturday, so stay tuned!

    Clarification: this is not self-shipping/self-insert

    The main character is kind of an original character of mine but, since she doesn't have any assigned characteristics, it can be read as a x reader.

    Shout-out to Horikoshi-sensei, the creator of the mha universe and its characters.

    I started posting it on wattpad and decided to expand here as well. (13/8/25)

    Summary

    Hanao Uchino is new at Inarizaki High School, permanently overwhelmed, and ever since one unfortunate incident at the vending machine, officially at war with anything raspberry-flavored.
    Joining the school radio club seems like the perfect solution: observe, write, stay invisible-and, if possible, never become the center of another public disaster.
    Too bad it's nearly impossible to commentate volleyball matches objectively when one certain setter keeps throwing her heart completely off the air.

    Summary

    It is said that humans are adaptable, but I'm pretty certain that whoever said that didn't consider being thrown headfirst into the world of One Piece as a possibility. Especially not with a start date in the middle of the canon timeline.

    Join a former physicist turned pirate, as he tries to navigate the many dangers and opportunities of his second life, and perhaps find a new dream along the way. Of course being stuck in Bellamy's body as he is, he'll have to survive the whims of a certain Royal Warlord first...

    Currently in the 2nd half of the time skip period.

    Summary

    You and Choso have been pen-pals for years. In elementary school, your teachers accidentally paired you two up for an assignment between two different schools, because there weren’t enough girls in Choso’s class. After they realized the mistake, it was too late. The arguing had already begun. What the best ramen was, Android VS Apple, wired headphones or a headset? That was the start of your life for the next twelve years; a best friend you had never met or seen. Until he suddenly disappeared.

    There were three rules: 1. No social media. 2. No phone numbers. 3. No pictures. And it worked. So why screw it over?

    It all worked out perfectly, until they met.

    Summary

    SPOILERS FROM THE AMAZING DIGITAL CIRCUS' ENDING!!!

    Pomni wants to save Jax from abstraction. But is that even possible? She misses Jax so much... And she entered the rabbit's mind, which had to be some place in the circus, right?

    Pomni and Caine will try to find a way to take Jax back to the circus and maybe find a cure to all abstracted people.

    This is a fic in which I epxlore the possibility of de-abstraction and the nature of the Circus and Caine. I loved the ending and I wouldn't want them to change it for anything else. Buuuut I'm a big fan who wants to explore the possibilities after that amazing finale. This is a post-canon fic where everything that was shown in the show has happened, but maybe some of my interpretations differ from others. And one last thing, Jax's pronouns will vary depending of context.

    In any case, enjoy! I promise that this will have a happy ending :)

    Summary

    Was the Devil always destined to become the Devil? Reborn upon Remnant with no memory of who he once was, Lucifer is given the one thing he never had: a second chance. This is not a story about redemption. Some sins cannot be forgiven. Not all monsters can be redeemed. This is a story about change. For it is unfortunate that the Devil's greatest sin was an act of love.

    Summary

    After a sudden magical awakening turns her world upside down, eleven-year-old Seraphina “Phin” Wells loses the one person who made it feel safe—her mother. Now alone and identified as a rare first-generation witch, Phin is placed under the guardianship of Cackle’s Academy, where she becomes both student and ward under the watchful care of Miss Cackle—and the far less forgiving eye of Miss Hardbroom. Shy, withdrawn, and carrying the quiet weight of grief, Phin struggles to find her place in a world that feels far too large for her. Yet beneath her uncertainty lies a well of raw, volatile magic—and a flicker of mischief that begins to surface as she forms an unexpected friendship. As she learns to balance emotion with control, and fear with courage, Phin begins to discover that belonging isn’t something she has to face alone.

    But something about her magic doesn’t add up. And when information surfaces about where she comes from, how will Phin deal with even more change and uncertainty?
