Summary
You were once a Marine officer known as one of their youngest and most promising talents. But now you are known across the seas as the “Silent Phantom” A former Marine who abandoned everything you once knew, leaving behind your rank, your reputation, and the life you spent six years building.
But all you want is to disappear into the sea and never look back.
Unfortunately, fate has other plans when you cross paths with a certain rubber pirate captain in alabasta.
What begins as a simple encounter slowly becomes something neither of you expected. Because no matter how far you run from your past, Luffy and his impossible ability to see the good in people might be the one thing you can’t escape.

Summary
When your life comes crashing down at a young age, some screws and more are definitely going to come loose and jumbled up. You can't remember what happened. Or, rather; you don't want to.
You couldn't do anything about it, couldn't control it.
And yet, you're burdened nightly. Burdened in your moments most isolated, by a voice that insists upon the notion that you could have done more. That you could have prevented something from happening. That pushing forward is for naught.
No matter how far you go in life, it will burden you unto eternity. That, is what you tell yourself anyways. However, perhaps...
Perhaps that will change. You've opened up a little more, shied away less from visages unfamiliar to you. And now? Maybe now, you can find something that'll pull you out from this dark haze.
Maybe even someone.
...You hope someone will.

So you gotta be careful, baby, and look both ways (before you cross my mind) by WickedCinnamonRoll

Summary
You had been stuck behind the wheel for far too long. You were on your way back home after visiting family in Oregon, but before you could leave the state, you spotted a sign for a town you had never heard of before: Gravity Falls.
Taking a much needed pit stop in a cute looking town wouldn't hurt, right? That's all this was supposed to be, honest. Just fuel, food and a breath of fresh air.
But when you laid eyes on that charming old man running the local tourist trap...you found yourself lingering, hesitant to leave.

Summary
“I spent a lot of time thinking it over, sir.. I’m sure you and your friend both will be pleased with-” You’re cut off by the office door slamming open, heavy boots stomping in your direction. You swallow heavily, barely looking up at the apparently large stranger before Silco speaks up again.
“This-” He gestures to the unfamiliar person, your eyes land on her face and her eyes meet yours… “- is Sevika."

Summary
Shock. Denial. Anger. Bargaining. Depression. Testing. Acceptance.
Desire, it turned out, had stages of its own.
What began with a stolen book in a quiet bookstore slowly unraveled into something neither of you had planned: a game of restraint, temptation, and impossible honesty, where every boundary crossed demanded another question, and every answer carried you further into his world.
Some transformations don't begin with love. They begin with curiosity.
Some lessons are found in poetry. Others demand complete trust.

Summary
Honestly, the only reason you hadn’t killed yourself yet was because of how much of a loser you were.
You’d definitely thought about it, and you definitely wouldn’t mind dying, but actually killing yourself wasn’t ideal. There was just too much to look forward to. Like, a new season to a show you really liked or the sudden continuation of a comic you loved after a ten year hiatus.
Yeah, you were pretty pathetic.

OR,
You work at a convenience store and just live life one day at a time.
The universe decides to send you a man.

it was almost 2 in the morning and I had done two shifts due to us being short staffed.
There wasn’t anyone here, except for one guy
I didn’t know how long he had been there for. Since before my shifts, I know, and my shift is
over in 10 minutes.
The guy is still crying into his beer, his dark brown curls covering his face almost entirely. -

You decided to muster up the courage to try and make small talk, but apparently this guy had some form of telekinesis because he beat you to it.
“So, what are you doing out here this late?” he inquired.
You looked at him for a moment before answering, which made him raise an eyebrow.
“I was taking a walk, why do you ask?”
“Not many people come out here this late, that’s all.”he said. Then he added: "You don’t look like you’re from around here.”

Summary
you can mix oil and water using alcohol. Because alcohol molecules are amphipathic (meaning they have both polar and non-polar ends), they act as a cosolvent or bridge that binds both the polar water and the non-polar oil together into a single, uniform solution.
You and bakugo are like Oli and water. You don’t mix. Well thats until alcohol is added into the equation. -
