Character-study Stories

theCuppedCake has kindly allowed me to write a one-shot/character study of 'Jane' from their Flight School series. This takes place in 'So Dark that it was Bright'. Contains minor spoilers if you haven't completed the first book.

"This is what I must do, to protect what I love," he responds. "It's not enough to just try to boot him out. His network is beyond comparison." "Just how large is it?" Jean gasps. "He is the new uncrowned king of Mondstadt," Kaeya says. "Almost every knight we have either is loyal or blackmailed by him. Several captains listen exclusively to him, and he even has Varka's ear. You, Jean, are the only one he does not have blackmail on." <><><> In the aftermath of Diluc's departure, Kaeya is left to pick up the pieces. With the same skills that allowed him to enter into the Ragnvindr household, he must now fight for the freedom of Mondstadt. The only question is: will he be able to survive what it takes to catch a traitor? (Also posted on ao3) Cover by ImberLapis

"Katsuki was not friends with Deku. Actually, instead of being a friend, Deku was some kind of nuisance in his life, something clinging to him like shit on a shovel. Always running around, openly crying at each minor inconvenience, like a weakling." Or, a study of Bakugou's feelings regarding Izuku and the evolution of their relationship throughout the years.

Izuku's love is inevitable. Katsuki's love is like a head-first collision with a truck. Goes all the way to the end of the manga, excluding time skip. Beware spoilers if you haven't gotten to the end yet!

Business partners, father and son, call them what you liked, the both of them had lost so much in a matter of months; slipping through their bloodied hands like grains of sand into a broken hourglass. However, it was their fault that their hands were bloodied and it was their fault that the glass was shattered. But no matter how much pain it gave them, they had no plans to change their ways. For the chips were down but they had aces up their sleeves. The perfect hand had come around and they bet big, holding their breaths and rolling the die. This was their opportunity to do something for the server and they were crazy to not have seized it.

Sirius Black found a purpose three times in his life, and two of those times were Harry. A character study and Sirius's thoughts at important points in his life.

"The lanterns danced around us, throwing light on her face. I watched, entranced, as she laughed delightedly. 'No,' I called out, desperate, as my vision blurred. I reached out to her, and woke up, to the sound of a river flowing nearby." Riko lives on the outskirts of an ancient town, in a hidden house with her friend Adria, and permanent visitor Jun. Every day, she rests by a patch of jasmine by the river, and dreams of a woman she has never known. (Better than it sounds. Essentially, you explore three different worlds through the eyes of Riko, and then you also explore the several different characters. Try it out?)

Chiyoko really hated Kei Yonagi. She was weird, uncontrollable and a mess of a personality. She die everything the opposite way of the way Chiyoko did. aka the au where Chiyoko is pinning for Kei and Kei is the one that meets Chiyoko on the swings after princess iron fan. (My first lauguage ain't english, sorry for grammar mistakes. this was just me writing fanfiction for this fandom because i need it.)

Kaeya Alberich never knew what it meant to have ambition. Not until he came to Mondstadt. His life before that lacked any form of it, drowning him in an emptiness that he never understood. This is his story. A story of a boy who once had no idea of what it meant to dream, yet later learned what it meant. And maybe one day, will learn what it means to watch as that dream shatters right before him. (Angsty character study of Kaeya that I'll try to update but don't really know where I'm going with it)

Within this universe, there were timelines some would consider a failure. Whether it came from a simple mistake or a conceptual tragedy, it makes no difference to its conclusion. Such is the struggle known as the Pan-Human History. Among its ruins, came one man, determined to find its failure and saves his world from its impending doom. At the sacrifice of his most loved one.

A character, many facets. A small series: Burn it all - where with each fragment I reveal another layer of her mind, her struggles, her fire. It's a very different concept I tried: introducing a character in fragments. --- "She was the contradiction - fire in her blood and restraint in her veins."

This is a character study more than anything else, probably won't finish it but feel free to place bets on who's gonna win.

AU where Takizawa's family is still alive out there, thinking Takizawa died that day during the anteiku raid. He pays them a visit :) "It's late. Far too late to be turning up like this, but it's not like he could have very well marched up the respectable, homely residential neighbourhood street in broad daylight. Everything about him screams ghoul, and that fact alone has his hand stilling, half-way raised to knock on the door."

Mark had always considered himself to be a good person, but as he rose through the corporate ranks, he began to lose sight of what truly mattered. His ambition and desire for power blinded him to the harm he was causing others.

Will he be able to make amends and find redemption, or is it too late to change his mind? Follow Mark's descent into darkness.

Were you looking for a hero? Because I think Lightning left a message: “Too damn bad.” Character piece. Spoilers up the wazoo.

Dazai has been missing for a while. Forgoing texting or calling (he won't answer) Chuuya investigates Dazai's whereabouts on his own. Inspiration drawn from Ne Me Quitte Pas (Don't Leave Me) by Orion Sun. "Swear you came down like a comet/You be all in my dreams like I'm fucking haunted"
