A scene that keeps coming back no matter how I dismiss it:

What if Xeno came to Japan instead of the other way around?

Now this idea floats in my head without a good reason for it happening, but for any reason Xeno is coming looking for Senku or maybe 💜👑 looking for Gen and arrives during the Stone Wars before Gen, Chrome, and Magma leave to deliver the radio. He's basically beelined his way there, with Stan... well, Stanley is incapable telling Xeno no, but this one's been stressful enough he thought about it for half a second while the ship was being built.

And the ship's sinking when they make radio contact.

It's hubris. Xeno knows how to make things and so does Brody, but the sea is unforgiving. A humpback whale gets irritated by their fishing net, or maybe orcas object to them trying to opportunisticly snatch some of the tuna they are hunting. Minor damage, they can take it. A bad storm dumps more water on them than their bilge pump was designed for. The shape of the boat isn't ideal and they go through metal fast patching up damage. Xeno knows to use gunmetal bronze and sacrificial zinc tabs to avoid corrosion, but boat design is not the same as dealing with aerospace engineering. He could make a little boat to skirt the coast built mostly for use on a river, but crossing an ocean with all the supply and seed stock to ensure they weren't reliant on foraging if nobody's home is different.

There are small miscalculations and while he's fine with iteration - that's the scientific process - the crew isn't holding up now that Stanley's out of his area of expertise and they don't have a strong unifying goal like getting their kidnapped leader back. These are marines, not navy seamen, they don’t have anyone like Ryusui or Ukyo with experience sailing a craft on the open ocean. They have to take the longer route because rediscovering a sunstone's use is not something they would think to do. Damage happens and Xeno seems to be having fun with recycling broken bits into solutions, but this is not like Stanley stealing the Perseus and it's plans to follow the coast. Poor morale means slacking on maintenance means a snowball of small inconveniences until they are limping toward Japan and there is one last winter storm blowing down out of Siberia. (The source of the fresh looking snow all over when Senku & co run to catch Homura while the team leave with the radio.)

Leo contacts Gen and Senku on the radio, Xeno is ecstatic. They hit a rock, just to solidify that the universe thought this was a bad idea, and the villagers paddle out to rescue and salvage what they can with the wind howling.

I have a very specific and very vivid scene in my head of Xeno with his leg under a pile of boxes that fell as the sinking ship tilted, seeing Senku for the first time when our protagonist uses a combination of Magma's muscles and some lever or pulley action to free him. Properly broken bone, should not have gone back for [probably the platinum.]

Femkacchan and deku fic where they get together, drunk one night stand style, and kacchan remembers it, but deku doesn't (or he does, but says he doesn't to save face maybe???). A few weeks later kacchan discovers she's pregnant and goes into a panic. She wants the baby, she knows that this is more than likely the only chance she'll ever have to have a baby, with her attitude and personality she doesn't exactly have a line of interested parties, but she wanted it to be different. She wanted to be in a relationship, maybe married even?, and she wanted a more stable and secure future. But she realizes, quietly resigned and maybe even a little bit wistful?, that's not going to happen. She debates telling deku that he's going to be a father, but when she looks at him and watches him, she sees how excited he is for the future, she sees the lingering stares between him and uraraka, and she reflects on how strained their own relationship has become and ultimately decides against telling him. She also decides against telling her parents, she already knows what her mother would say, how she should have been careful and how she's a fool for keeping the baby when her hero career has barely begun and how she needs to marry the poor bastard that put the baby in her goddammit katsuki we don't need anymore problems (kacchan is loud, aggressive, bullheaded, and she never backs down from anything. She's the exact opposite of what anyone had wanted/expected from little katsuki bakugou). And while she knows her father would be overjoyed and supportive, she just can't deal with her mother screaming and berating her, so she doesn't tell him either.

What she does decide to do, begrudgingly because she absolutely can do everything all on her own goddammit! But she also realizes it's not just about her anymore, is talk to recovery girl about her pregnancy and her decision to keep the baby. She won't tell the older lady who the father is, no matter how recovery girl tries to persuade her otherwise, she's made her decision and the green haired bastard will never know, not if she can help it. She's not going to put him in a situation where he'd feel forced and obligated to help her, and she resolutely ignores the voice in her head telling her that he'd probably want to help her with everything because she's his /kacchan/. It only took her a day to realize, after some serious thought, that she wanted him to help out because he was in love with her [the way she was in love with him].

Recovery girl talks her through all the changes she's going to go through, both physically and emotionally/mentally. She talks to her about how she won't be able to use her quirk the futher along her pregnancy goes, how she'll have to limit if not altogether STOP any kind of activities that aren't calm and slow and careful. She talks to her about prenatal vitamins, what to eat and what to avoid, and more. By the time recovery girl is done with her spiel, kacchan is - overwhelmed to put it lightly. She knew there was a lot to babies and pregnancy, but she didn't realize just how much there was to everything. Recovery girl gives her a break once she sees how overwhelmed the explosive teen is, she pats her on the shoulder, gives her a granola bar, and tells her she'll be right back.

Kacchan nibbles on the granola, deep in thought, when the cause of all her problems bursts through the nurses office. She jumps and turns around, a scowl darkening her face when she sees Deku's sweaty face, Uraraka helping him through the door. The moron broke the fingers in his left hand and crushed the bones in his right shoulder, again.

Lan Xichen/Song Lan | 4k | Chapter 1/2

The first letter Song Zichen writes to Lan Xichen starts like this:

I had enough of solitude.

It takes two weeks of quiet coexistence, morning hellos and evening good nights and notes on bits of paper consisting of ‘yes’-es and ‘no’-s and ‘thank you’-s, until Xichen works up the courage to ask:

“What brought you to the Cloud Recesses, Song-daozhang?”

Song Zichen looks up from the book he’s not reading, pulls out a sheet of paper, dips his brush into ink and starts writing.

-

in which the years pass, grief dulls but doesn't disappear, and new paths open forward.

16, 19 and 29?

((Thank you!))

16. A fic you're very proud of?

Probably the most recent thing I wrote- Cut Concepts, about Randall and Henry growing up to look like their character concept art. Not saying the fic itself is AMAZING but I was amazed at how quickly I wrote it. I saw some related fanart and my brain just went, “WRITE”.

19. Where do you write?

In notebooks mostly then I type everything up! In light of Covid, we’re not allowed to sit in coffee shops any more and it’s too cold outside so now the furthest place I can go is my kitchen/living room  :’)

29. Where do you get your inspiration from?

Real life, books and FANART!

Robert swung his belt over the zipline cord and held tight. Several feet below Tony was barking up a storm, swirling around in ecstatic little circles. Robert steadied himself, exhaled and pushed off.

He lasted three second in the air before the belt snapped from friction and he plummeted face-first to the solid tile below.
