Summary
Charles Xavier is interned in a psychiatric hospital thanks to the voices he had heard ever since he was a child, believed to be a schizophrenic man. He knows well now that those voices aren't in his own head, that he can control those voices, even if it takes its toll on him when he does so, and he learned to call the hospital his home after years.
Things change, however, when a new patient arrives who can block Charles out of his mind — the first in the telepath's life —, catching his attention immediately.
Title from "Various Storms & Saints" by Florence and the Machine.

Summary
“You wanted to see me, Boss?” Chuuya asks.
Mori smiles. Oh no. “Oh, yes. Thank you for coming.” Chuuya can almost see the daggers Dazai is glaring at Mori. “As you can see, Dazai has had a couple of unfortunate accidents resulting in the temporary loss of use of his arms.”
Chuuya looks over at Dazai, who, sure enough, has a cast around each arm. The cast on his right arm ends above his elbow, completely encasing his hand, and is supported by a sling. The one on his left leaves his fingers exposed and lets him freely move his elbow, at least, but that isn’t a lot when your other arm is useless. Chuuya is getting a bad feeling about this.
Mori looks like the cat that ate the canary when Chuuya looks back at him. So much so that Chuuya is half tempted to look around for little yellow feathers. Mori continues, “Due to his condition, Dazai will need someone to look after him and help him do things in the meantime.”
“Mori…” Dazai growls. Chuuya can feel his lip curling in disgust. Maybe he should’ve just skipped work today.
“I’d like you to act as his caretaker, Chuuya.”

Summary
To Dazai, drowning is as old of a concept as it gets. In fact, the ridiculous amount of times he’s attempted with this particular method had, for better or for worse, prolonged his breath-holding duration significantly. The instances Chuuya would fish him out himself had been few, though struck the most, as each time Dazai would ask why he didn’t just let him die in peace, his answer would be the same:
“As long as I’m around, you’re not getting what you want that fucking easily. Just accept the fact that I’ll save your sorry ass every time…
…even though you'd never do the same for me.”
Oh, how Dazai currently wishes that were true...
Or: The time Dazai jumped out of a helicopter for Chuuya.

While You Were Sleeping by Belkacaramelka (annabelleg)

Summary
The one where quirkless fanboy Midoriya Izuku rescues Pro Hero Todoroki Shouto, gets mistaken as his fiancé while he is in a coma, and gets caught up in the most unlikely fake engagement... until his childhood enemy and Todoroki's classmate Bakugou Katsuki tries to catch him out, and they both end up discovering a lot more about each other than they'd expected.
Quirkless AU based on the film; endgame BakuDeku.
--
Katsuki didn’t know when the change had happened: how he had gone from asking why Todoroki chose Deku of all people, to wondering why it was Todoroki that Deku chose.
Troublesome Deku, who cooed like an idiot at cats, tripped at a random catcall and sang badly. Who, despite everything, proved that it wasn’t the quirk that defined a person.
Deku, who was too much, not his, and undeniably off limits to begin with.Update: Epilogue added

Summary
“You know Kuroba-kun has never turned down a dare, he was dared to run around campus in his underwear before and he did it.”
“Hmm so you’re saying I need to challenge him? Try and give him a dare he would refuse and then one of us would win?”
“Mm you can try,” Kuroba snickered, patronisingly.
Shinichi was sat in his common room with his nose in a book, when KID’s civilian identity showed up with some classmates and begun playing ‘Truth or Dare.’ Shinichi had noticed KID a couple of times in his university but decided to keep his distance; it didn’t feel fair to unmask the thief outside of a heist. That didn’t stop the detective from observing KID whenever Shinichi did catch a glimpse.
Throughout the game, the thief gets dared to do something he seems to really not want to do, and of course the detective could easily end his misery but… he wants KID to lose his winning streak. Blame the rivalry in him.

Summary
The Dark Lord lingers. Severus spirals. Did Harry Potter ever truly exist at all?
[Severus Snape splits his time between the war effort, a mysterious plot hatched by his students, the ever nefarious Dolores Umbridge, and the physical and mental well-being of Harry Potter. The last one turns out to be more difficult than it sounds.
And then things take a turn for the worse.
OotP AU in which it turns out the Dark Lord had more than one way to return from the dead, and Severus discovers just how far he has left to fall. Expect dark humor, a liberal dose of angst, and plenty of Severus Snape's personal opinions.]

Summary
Erik has dreams of a dark room, of being pushed down into the floor and violated in a way that makes him scream until his throat is raw. But Shaw never, ever touched him like that, so Erik wonders if he somehow repressed memories of Shaw's torture. Either way, he hides the dreams from Charles, intent on suffering through it alone, as he always has.
And then one day, the nightmares come when he's still awake, and he realizes that these aren't his nightmares, they're Charles's. It's Charles projecting in his sleep, and then Erik realizes that they aren't nightmares at all, they're memories from Charles's hidden past.

Summary
“Here it is,” Carole says, bringing Mav’s wheelchair to a stop.
Mav’s mouth is dry. He aches for another cup of water. “Carole, tell me something, and don’t lie to me.”
“Anything, Maverick.”
“How bad does he look?”
Carole is quiet for a while. Then she comes around and kneels in front of Mav, taking both of his hands in her own. Her eyes swim with tears. “If I didn’t know any better,” she says, voice breaking, “I’d think he was dead.”
•
Or, Goose is alive when they hit the water. That's enough.
