    Summary

    By day, you are a perfectly average student in U.A. High’s General Studies Department. You have average grades, an average face, and a quirk that nobody bothers to ask about. You are the quintessential background character, and that is exactly how you like it.

    But by night, you are Eidolon, a terrifyingly powerful entity draped in darkness, manipulating events to prevent the catastrophic war that looms on the horizon. Armed with foreknowledge of the future and a power that defies physics, you crush villains and steer heroes toward a brighter path.

    The world trembles at your name. Villains fear your silhouette. Izuku Midoriya is both terrified and awed by your cryptic wisdom.

    If only they knew that your mysterious silence is just you frantically trying to remember the cool Latin phrase you looked up on Wikipedia, and that your heart rate isn't calm because of stoicism, but because you're internally screaming, "OH MY GOD, I JUST SPOKE TO DEKU!"

    Summary

    Redstone genius Branzy makes the fatal mistake of leaving his window open when there’s been a monster prowling the streets of the city, leaving its victims mutilated. Horrified, Branzy is trapped within his lab with the monster, teeth sharp in the moonlight, and finds that it is not there to kill him.

    Only, to make an offer.

    Summary

    After Oakhurst faces a Bad Ending, Owen remembered breaking a beacon, in a castle nothing like the ruins that existed when he last awoke. He remembered a fire, and bodies of people he had never met burning around him. He remembered a beacon, and his own hand destroying something never meant to be touched by a creature like him. And then - he heard footsteps in Oakhurst for the first time in two hundred years, faces somehow familiar he had never met.

    and

    Avid remembered everything. He had died. Everyone had died. But that was impossible. Because - he was stepping into Oakhurst for the first time, and he couldn't know everyone's names, faces, habits - how each of them died. How it felt to be a vampire. He was going mad. (Elle was dead. Why did he get a redo and she didn't?)

    Summary

    “What’s the last thing you can remember?”
    “I was… in the woods with– with you, looking for those… tombs. And then… then we found one, and I jumped down…”
    And that was it.
    Owen hummed. “That’s good.”

    or, Owen decides that he wants to enthrall Avid, and he does succeed. Eventually.

    Summary

    “You killed them! You—you left me for last, just to make me suffer!” He wrapped a hand around Owen’s throat and pushed. Even if it wouldn’t do anything.

     

    “Why do this? What did I ever do to you to make you hate me this much..?”

     

    Owen started up at him, eyes empty and malicious all at once. “I wanted you to feel it, Avid. This agony.” He said, straining through the push of Avid’s fingers.“I wanted you to know what it’s like. You think you’re so much better than I am, but when it comes down to it?”

     

    He grinned, an awful, terrible thing. “We’re both the monsters of Oakhurst.”

    Owen’s plans go perfectly.

    It does not end well for Avid. Or Owen himself, for that matter.
