    Summary

    Izuku Midoriya’s father is a Hou-ou — a Japanese phoenix.

    For some reason, this means yokai have a standing invitation to pester Izuku with their existence. Birds assemble choirs for his birthday. If there’s no cedar leaf under the welcome mat, the amazake babaa that lives two apartments over will be knocking on their door by evening. His yokai-purifying excursions get mistaken for vigilantism far too often.

    (What’s going on with All Might? Is Principle Nedzu a yokai? Tokoyami, could you please get Dark Shadow to stop calling me ‘my Lord’?)

    Summary

    In a world where 80% of all people are born with some kind of special ability, known as "quirks", society has developed around a new form of celebrity; heroes. A publicly sanctioned form of defenders who are given special permission to freely use their quirks to rescue civilians from disasters, apprehend criminals, and maintain public safety. However, beneath the surface of this society there are villains who use their powers illegally and selfishly, and innocent people enduring prejudice; both for having undesirable or dangerous quirks, and for having none at all.

    Izuku Midoriya is a quirkless young man; but he harbors in his heart a burning desire to be a true hero and works hard every day towards that goal. One day, he finds himself face to face with Japan's Number One Hero: All Might, who makes him an offer that will change his life forever, and make his distant dream a reality.

    This is a full rewrite of the story of the My Hero Academia anime and manga. The story will attempt to maintain the core themes of the series while exploring an alternative narrative in which the protagonist Izuku finds himself the center of a harem of (basically) the entire female cast.

    Tags will be added with new chapters.

    Summary

    Ethan Reed, once an ordinary young man from Earth, is mysteriously transported to the vibrant world of Pokémon. Stranded and bewildered, he spends over a year in an untamed forest, surviving and adapting to his new reality while waiting for rescue. During this time, he creates a small plot of land for himself and the surrounding Pokémon, cultivating a farm of berry trees, a secluded meadow, and a rough shelter.

    One fateful day, Ethan is rescued by an experienced Pokémon Ranger, who helps him reach Eterna City. There, Ethan is welcomed by the community of Pokémon trainers, nurses, and League officials after his harrowing experience. Despite their warm reception, Ethan feels out of place and uncertain about his future in this unfamiliar world.

    Summary

    The first two nights, Harry sleeps like the dead— or, well, maybe that's not the best comparison, given the number of inferi attacks reported lately.

    He sleeps like a log. Like a dead log. An un-re-animated dead log. From an everyday, inanimate, non-whomping tree.

    After that, Harry wakes up screaming more nights than not, and he even cries on the bad ones, which makes James cry too. In this regard, James reckons that his first week of parenting a full-grown teenage adult bears an awful lot of resemblance to parenting a newborn baby. He feels both blessed and terrifyingly out of his depth.
