    Naoto Shirogane grew up under pressure. His father, Retsu, was a low-class Pro Hero who thought he deserved more. More fame, more recognition, a legacy worth broadcasting. When Naoto showed no sign of a Quirk, Retsu snapped. He called it training. Discipline. Tough love. But it was manipulation. Obsession. Abuse, dressed up as preparation for a future that never felt like his. Then, at thirteen, Naoto's Quirk awakened. Quickslot, unstable, overwhelming. One surge of power, and his mother was left injured in the fallout. Retsu didn't hesitate. He saw no frightened child. He saw a monster. That same night, Naoto was thrown out. Declared dead. Blacklisted. Erased like a glitch in his father's perfect narrative. He disappeared into Naruhata, and part of his hair whitened. But he got back up - with help from Koichi Haimawari, Kazuho Haneyama and the others He rebuilt himself through silence and discipline. Quickslot lets him summon objects from video game inventories, powerful, versatile, dangerous if left unchecked. Eraser Head had recommended him to U.A Witness to his actions and rebuilt mindset. He saw the boy, and a brilliant tactician who knew how to optimize Quirks in the blink of an eye. And years later, he finally accepted. Now he belongs to the halls of the hero academy, silently. He doesn't talk much. He doesn't aim for attention. But his white-streaked hair, his whole "edgy ghost-boy vibe", and his odd way of being sweet and caring, speak louder than he ever could. Somehow, he made friends. Not by trying. Just by being there. He's not trying to be a hero. He's trying to make sure he never becomes the villain his father made everyone, Naoto included, believe he was. ⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️ The following is a non-profit fan-based story.

    When Rory Gilmore wakes up the morning she's supposed to start Chilton, she isn't fifteen anymore-at least not in her mind. She remembers everything: the heartbreak, the mistakes, the endless push and pull between her mother's free spirit and her grandmother's perfection. Given a second chance, Rory vows to do things differently. She'll embrace Hartford society instead of running from it, make peace with the Haydens, and learn to balance ambition with grace. She joins the Puffs, attends her debutante ball without flinching, and builds real relationships with Emily and Richard on her own terms. As the years unfold, Rory evolves from Lorelei Leigh Gilmore, the girl who lived in her mother's shadow, into Rory Leigh Gilmore-Hayden, a woman who finally belongs to herself. Along the way, she navigates love and legacy-from Tristan DuGrey's smirk at Chilton to the whirlwind charm of Logan Huntzberger and his circle of chaos, Colin and Finn. In this world, Rory doesn't just rewrite her story; she redefines what it means to be a Gilmore... and a Hayden. A story of second chances, self-discovery, and the quiet power of becoming who you were always meant to be.

    Once, they were just kids who wore masks to save their city. Now, they're teens standing on the edge between heroism and corruption. The PJ Masks are older, stronger, and burdened with the truth of their past. But as they dive deeper into the unknown, enemies and friends must face the truth: There were never true heroes or villains - only broken kids used as pawns under the moonlight. The Older Version/Teen AU of the childhood show PJ Masks that Disney would never give us. This story includes teen stuff such as violence, emotional breakdown, unhealthy relationships, blood, death, angst, family issues and more. I don't own the PJ Masks, Disney does. I just own the plot in this story and some original characters that would appear.

The child of Lucius Malfoy and Estella Gaunt, Elias is raised in the shadow of a father who despises him and a half-brother who is openly favored. When Elias turns eight, Lucius severs what little connection remains, divorcing Estella to be with Narcissa and sending Elias and his mother away to Thornbury-a remote village far removed from the life Elias was meant to inherit. In Thornbury, Elias learns to survive with little more than responsibility, resilience, and the quiet weight of abandonment.

Together, they find solace in the wild fields, forests, and stolen moments of childhood-unaware of how deeply those days will shape the people they are destined to become.
