    Summary

    When Sakura Haruno is pronounced killed in action, the world she once held together quietly begins to fall apart. Team Seven fractures beneath the weight of her absence and the guilt that each of them carries.

    Naruto swears she’s still out there somewhere, refusing to believe she’s gone and unwilling to stop searching. Kakashi carries the silence like penance. And Sasuke, who’d known her and loved her since childhood, learns what it truly means to be left behind.

    Then comes Karin Uzumaki, a rescued experiment of Orochimaru, assigned to fill the void Sakura left behind. At first, she only wants to understand her, the girl everyone can’t seem to forget. But fascination curdles into something else. And piece by piece, she starts to take what was never hers.

    Because if Sakura Haruno is gone, someone has to be her. And Karin is willing to become the echo.

    But the closer she gets to the team, the more the cracks begin to show: the secrets they’re hiding, the nightmares they won’t admit, and the eerie sense that Sakura’s story isn’t over.

    Because sometimes, the dead don’t stay gone.

    Summary

    For the past three years, going on four, Marinette Dupain-Cheng has had the pleasure to be the girlfriend of one Chloe Bourgeois. Sure, Chloe could be a handful, and her insistence on expensive gifts sometimes was just too much... but when someone spent over a year doing everything they could to win you over, it tended to touch your heart on some level.

    Of course, for all that Marinette loves Chloe, she has the misfortune of being ignorant to one crucial detail about her girlfriend: Namely, that Chloe Bourgeois is one of, if not THE biggest bully in College Francois Dupont. A crucial truth that Chloe has taken great pains to conceal from the girl who stole her heart with a smile. But with evil on the rise, and a nosy new classmate, how long will it take for the house of cards Chloe has stacked comes tumbling down?

    Edit: TVTropes page has been acquired!

    (Otherwise known as an AU where Chloe and Marinette are an established couple from Origins onward, and have been for years. Enjoy!)

    Summary

    Possibilities lined up before her. If she was a superhero, everyone would love her. She would have parades. She’d be powerful, perhaps more powerful than her parents. She couldn’t wait to tell everyone that she, Chloé Bourgeois, was a superhero!

    Then she looked in the mirror.

     

    Leather.

     

    Chloé was wearing not only a full-body leather suit, but on top of that she wore leather gloves, boots and a belt. Leather-on-leather! An atrocity! Even worse, Chloé’s hair was pulled out of its neat ponytail, and had turned into a mess of curls. Chloé spent an hour every morning having her butler straighten her hair, she didn’t want it to revert to it’s natural curly state every time she transformed! The excessive leather did not even spare her head, giving her both leather ears and a leather mask that tinted her sclera blue.

    If Chloé’s mother, the Queen of Fashion, ever saw this, Chloé knew exactly what she would say: “Ridiculous! Utterly ridiculous!”

    So this is why superheros had secret identities.

    It's not Sakura's fault she's a bit spacey and distracted. You would be too if the dead refused to leave you alone.
