    Summary

    Atsushi was woken by a loud knocking at his door. He sat up groggily, wiping sleep from his eyes. He squinted at the clock on his bedside and he pulled on a jumper.

    3:00 am? Who could be knocking at 3:00 a.m.?

    He almost fell out of bed before hurrying through his small, cluttered apartment to the door. The smooth, lino floor was cold under his bare feet.

    “I’m coming,” he called as he tripped over a pair of shoes tossed on the floor. The knocking didn’t stop. If anything it grew louder and more impatient. It couldn’t be Dazai, he’d made a copy of the key ages ago. Kunikida always called him first not at 3:00 am and the rest of the agency hadn’t even gone to his apartment before.

    ..........

    Or Akutagawa shows up at Atsushi's apartment in need of help and Atsushi makes a choice he regrets

    Summary

    Of course, technically, Riyo's part of the second entry. In practice, though, she's never been quite the perfect fit no matter how Enjin tried; now that she's caught her good bud Zanka fraternising with the enemy, she has to deal with whole headaches about what that bubble of isolation makes them both. Worse, Zanka's boyfriend lets his vital instrument be stuffed in a little box just to stay close to who has kept Riyo's flank safe in battle more times than she can count, and made her feel the most connected to her employment out of anyone. Zanka's boyfriend, fucking Jabber Wonger of all people, seems to know Zanka better than she ever had.

    It's really interesting what people's priorities expose about them, is it not?

     

    CH. 10 EDIT: for my fellow Explicit rating surfers, your food is, you guessed it, in chapter 10. if you don't mind being kinda confused by the surrounding plot, you'll probably like it even without reading the rest of the fic. zanriyo + zanjab at the same time and vaguely jabriyo if you squint

    Summary

    “...I didn’t try to kill you–”

    “You wanted to–” the combative bitch says.

    “–I broke your face.”

    Tenko remembers that drug-fuelled afternoon. Everything was too loud and bright, and he couldn’t stand seeing Touya’s face. Touching him. Breathing the same air. If Tenko has ever felt capable of murder, then that was the time. In hindsight, Touya was brave to repeatedly find himself in Tenko’s company. Or stupid. The guy was all instinct. Acted before he could think most of the time. Couldn’t keep a fucking lid on his anger, but that was both of them, really.

    “It was bruised,” Touya corrects him after a weighted beat, and he blinks once before continuing. “You broke my heart instead.”

    ***

    Life has unexpected ways of bringing people together. Tenko and Touya haven’t spoken in three years, so when they get the chance to reconnect, there’s a lot to say… and do.
    Or: Tenko fights with his ex-boyfriend, then gets him off.

    Summary

    On Jabber and Zanka’s very first attempt at a proper date night, they witness the unthinkable: a couple getting engaged. Out in the open. For everyone to see. The restaurant patrons applaud. Someone weeps in the background. Jabber and Zanka remain completely unbothered because HA, and, HA HA, who in the world wants to get married?

    Jabber and Zanka don’t. They aren’t like those people.

    (Or: Jabber and Zanka are exactly like those people).

    Summary

    Zanka is tasked with keeping Jabber from running too wild in his new position with the cleaners. Jabber is a ball of excess manic energy. Daily fights are a little unsustainable when there are trash beasts to be defeated on a moment’s notice.

    And since their relationship has been evolving, it's a no brainer. Jabber is a masochist. Zanka has a dominant streak. Easy peasy. It shouldn’t be too different from all the times before.

    Except, as usual, Zanka is a fucking wild card. Sex never felt hazy or vulnerable like this with any of the strangers that make up Jabber’s sexual history. Jabber is used to pain, but treated with roughness and care in equal measure is new and very disarming.

    Summary

    The literal incarnation of Jabber's soul is a beauty of sharpness and poison. Mankira. Mankiller. Ten silver rings, ten deadly claws.

    He thinks it's fitting.

    Jabber likes pain, both when it's inflicted on him and when it's plainly visible in another person. He likes fighting, tearing people apart, seeing how they break on him. He likes it even more when he loses, when he's the one with blood in his teeth and holes in his body. He was made for it, for making it happen and for enjoying it.

    And yet—

    “It’s funny, man, sum light petting ‘n yer already coming undone, ain't ya?” Zanka laughs again, lips tracing the lines of Jabber's jaw, making him tilt his head higher and higher in an honestly lame attempt to escape the ministrations. On Zanka's shoulders, his hands busy themselves clinging to the Cleaner's shirt, twisting and pulling at the fabric like a lifeline. He wants to move, to escape. He also wants to wiggle himself into Zanka's bones, carve a place in the middle of his ribcage and curl up there like a cat in the sun. “Yer so cute,” Zanka purrs, “unbelievable.”

    Or,
    Jabber, belonging, and Zanka.

    Summary

    “A vessel must be seamless. You must not leak. You cannot hold honor if you are cracked.”
    For Zanka Nijiku, life was an iron fence built out of pristine white uniforms, high-town expectations, and flawless mathematical angles.
    Then came Jabber—a fluid, unhinged Raider who brought the stench of burning chemicals, raw copper, and chaotic freedom into spaces where he didn’t belong.
    What starts as a secret, volatile connection hidden away in the dark warehouses of Sector 3 quickly spirals into a battle against deep-seated internalized homophobia, rigid family legacies, and a border town on the brink of collapse.
    When their hidden relationship is violently exposed to the Cleaners, Zanka is forced to face his greatest fear: that the rules he spent his life protecting are the very things keeping him hollow.
    From a secret shame to an absolute, unyielding alliance, this is the story of two broken pieces finding a way to lock together where the straight lines of the world no longer matter.

    Summary

    Zanka Nijiku—nihilist, pessimist, misanthropist—lives his life on a single mantra: love is bullshit. Nothing but primitive bursts of passion that interfere with the symmetry of an otherwise right-angled world.

    This offends Heaven; and so naturally they do the only logical course of action:

    Send down a cupid and force him to find love.

    (Or, Jabber is an angel sent down to help Zanka find love, and Zanka wants to end it all.)

    Summary

    “Tap out.”

    Jabber says nothing this time, but doesn’t tap out either. He is uncharacteristically silent. Zanka looks at him then, really looks. Even fucked up, Jabber is unfairly beautiful. Jabber flutters his long, long lashes at Zanka, gaze laser-focused on him as he swirls his own blood in his mouth. Then spits it out.

    Right. Into. Zanka’s. Face.

    “No.”

    Zanka is on him like a wild dog before he can even finish the word.

     

    Or; Zanka's got an itch and Jabber can scratch it. What else is there to say?

    “Alright.” The realization left an unpleasant taste on his tongue, and he pulled back Lovely Assistaff with slow movements, wondering if his actions had tainted her with shame. “You’re here to… make art?”

    Summary

    The first line addresses the recipient, but the name had been scored out so harshly Zanka can feel the indents through the back with a pass of his thumb. The first word is most certainly Dear, and he can just about make out an a and what falls between an m and an n in the next one, but anything else is a lost cause.

    My name has an a at the start, his thoughts supply, there's an n next to that.

    His rational side doesn't bother to brush it off as a simple coincidence, and he feels his heart stammer in his chest.

    After leaving his window open to sleep, a mysterious love letter finds its way into Zanka's hands. The name of whoever it's addressed to is unintelligible, but that doesn't stop him from getting his hopes up, especially when the contents start to sound strikingly similar to Jabber's words from the past.

    "I’ve spent my life convinced that to care for someone was a weakness. I’m starting to understand that it’s the only thing that makes the fighting worth it."

    Summary

    “What a surprise to see you here, Gen Asagiri,” the man says. He appears to be in his fifties, maybe - graying hair at the roots that fades to youthful black at the tips, like a photograph developing in reverse. His beard is unshaven, a patchy constellation of salt and pepper, but his eyes are impossibly young.

    They gleam with mischief, intelligence, and something else - something old and knowing. He watches Gen with open amusement, like someone who just found an unexpected letter in a familiar book. “I didn’t expect you. I’ve been trying for Yuzuriha or Taiju since I can’t get to Senku.”

    ---

    After the petrification, Gen starts dreaming of a man who died 3,700 years ago.

    Summary

    Dabi is doing his best to kill off his past self and move on with his life. He’s working a quiet café job to dodge his family’s drama and forget the person he used to be, but then Shigaraki Tomura walks in. He’s grumpy, wears his attitude like a uniform, and is exactly Dabi’s type…the human equivalent of a bad idea in a hoodie, which is a huge problem.

    What starts as snarky banter over coffee orders quickly spirals into late-night texts and an attraction Dabi can't shake off, no matter how hard he tries. Tomura is chaotic and messed up in his own way, and Dabi is terrified of how much he likes it. It’s a messy, slow-burn ride about two damaged people trying to navigate a relationship while carrying enough baggage to sink a ship. Dabi is trying to outrun his past, but he might just have to stop running if he wants to keep Tomura around.

    Sometimes, when you don't believe you deserve the good thing that’s coming for you, you spend a lot of time trying to jump out of the way. Kakashi and Iruka are shinobi. Evasion is almost second nature.

    (It begins with a long weekend onsen meet-cute, and then, as is only right for two people who love romance novels as much as they do, it takes ten years for them to figure out that they're in one.)
