    Summary

    “What are you talking about?” Grace's fingers played quick chords as he spoke. He didn’t even look as he did it, but it did not make them any less purposeful.

    “Discussing possible reasons why Tau Ceti is not infected while other stars are,” Eva replied deftly. “I would invite you to join, but we were just finishing—”

    “Oh, that’s easy.” His hand twisted a knob, and the notes came out sharper. “It is infected—Petrova Line and everything.”

    In Grace's opinion, dreaming about time traveling is no excuse for getting out of practice with his Eridian. To the rest of the Petrova Taskforce, it seems a bit odd that their resident Astrophage expert has suddenly taken to carrying a keyboard around and playing it whenever he speaks. Eva Stratt resolves to figure out what is going on.

    Summary

    When Cal's hand ripped away from his, Lightning fought for enough breath to shout.

    But none came.

    A dull thud echoed through his chest when he landed, his body finally coming to a final resting place.

    Biting back a groan, Lightning shifted until he caught sight of his friend.

    Cal was out cold, lying in a crumpled heap a few feet away.

     

    What was supposed to be a fun, friendly race to the Charlotte Motor Speedway goes horribly wrong when Cal and Lightning’s car breaks down on the side of the road. Things only go downhill from there…

    Summary

    A glint of navy and a familiar outline parked next to the crew chief stand has his head spinning, and he unconsciously rises out of his chair to get a closer look. Feeling slightly dazed, he begins.

    “Hey, did that look like-”

    Before he can finish his sentence, the image cuts to an overview of McQueen’s pit crew, finally landing on a close up of his new crew chief. Gray haired and stern faced, barking instructions into the head piece. The announcer cuts him off.

    “Darrell, it appears McQueen has got himself a pit crew, and look who he has for a crew chief.”

    It can’t be, Smokey thinks, eyes glued to the scream. Louise has his arm in a vice grip. He can feel the crescents of her nails digging into his skin.

    “Wow, this is history in the making! Nobody has seen the racing legend in over fifty years!”

    For a moment the entire bar goes dead quiet, and Smokey's mind goes blank.

    Summary

    Heavy, wet breathing, and a choked-off voice: “C-come in. Please. Someone, come in. This is Midoriya Izuku. Bakugou Katsuki and I are t-trapped—”

    He cuts himself off, just as Katsuki fuzzily realizes his head is pillowed on Izuku’s thigh. His thoughts come in slow like molasses.

    Izuku breathes hard. “—Under a building. We’re under the building.”

    //

    or:

    Izuku has had this thing about him that Katsuki has never been able to name, but he's been chasing it since he learned how to run. It takes a catastrophic building collapse during their third year and a severe concussion for him to realize what it is.

    Aizawa loses ten years off his life. When does he not.
