    Summary

    He warned them. Repeatedly. Kakashi didn’t want a genin team. Kakashi had no idea of what to do with a genin team. He was self-aware enough to know he wasn’t quite right in the head. He should not be trusted with a bunch of children.

    But did the Sandaime hear him? No, because the Sandaime wasn’t Minato-sensei and the old man never listened to him. And he went ahead with the brilliant idea of saddling him with his dead sensei’s son, Itachi’s little brother, and a kunoichi who was so much a cannon fodder that she had a literal target on her bright red dress.

    He would not be blamed for the shitshow that was about to start.

    OR.

    Kakashi only knows how to teach three things: survival, assassination, and pretending to be normal. Good thing that's exactly what his cute little genins need to learn. And if they also learned how to be a family in the process, well, that's just a bonus.

    Summary

    The first thing Wei Ying became aware of was cold steel at his throat.
    Not one blade—several.
    He did not move.

    Sleep still clung to him, heavy and disorienting, but instinct burned through it fast enough. His eyes cracked open to darkness cut by lantern light, and beyond it, the rigid silhouettes of Gusu Lan disciples. White robes. Swords steady. Not trembling.
    Not a mistake, then.

    Wei Ying let out a slow breath, careful not to shift against the edge pressing lightly into his skin. “Well,” he said, voice rough with sleep, “this is a new way to wake up.”

    No one laughed.
    That, more than the swords, told him something was very wrong.

    “You will come with us,” one disciple said. Young. Formal. Afraid—but hiding it well. “You are to be detained and questioned.”

    “Questioned?” Wei Ying echoed. His mind raced, sifting through the previous day. Punishments—yes. Lan Wangji standing over him like a silent judge. Copying rules until his wrist ached. Kneeling until his legs went numb. Nothing new, nothing unusual, nothing that should end with… this.

    He frowned. “Did I break a new rule I haven’t heard of yet?”

    Summary

    Grasping the emperor’s hands in his, Wei Ying squeezes them excitedly. “Lan Zhaan, I came to tell you first. A-Cheng and I are finally getting betrothed. I… will soon become someone else’s wife.”

    For a brief second, Lan Wangji cannot see. Cannot feel his body, cannot even draw breath. Even death would be preferable to this. “You… are marrying… Jiang Wanyin?”

    He wants, so desperately, to say: I know you never loved me.

    Yet the words claw at his throat: But did you have to love him?

    Or, Emperor Lan Wangji steals another man’s bride. By hook or by crook, Wei Ying is his.

    Summary

    Midoriya Izuku wanted to be a hero. Even if he was quirkless, even if he was beaten down and laughed at, he still dreamed of becoming a hero.

    But what if a hero, the very thing he sought to become, abandoned him? What if he left to die, forgotten and alone? What if a person who society called a ‘villain’ had saved him? Would he still want to become what the world called a ‘hero’?

    Despite the world constantly pushing him towards villainy, the answer was yes. Even with an awful awakening of the world around ‘heroes’ and ‘villains’, he was still going to become a hero, quirkless or not— even if it meant learning from a villain and bringing down entire social prejudices to reach it.
