How does a monster *not* become a monster?
Forget inspiring hope as a hero. After years forgotten underground, Arata Shirayuki first has to survive in the light.
Aizawa pushes her to master the terrifying Praying Mantis quirk she's spent her life repressing. Class 1-A is both the impossible standard she must meet and the found family she desperately craves. Meanwhile, Bakugou detonates every wall she hides behind by force...
Until the League of Villains descends upon the forest camp, and with them, comes the mother who once loved her, left her to rot, and now wants her back.
But Arata is no longer an island of one. Shoto Todoroki has seen both the girl crippled by the cold and the mantis drenched in blood, and he stays regardless.
He's the one person Arata fights her way back to through it all-even through the worst of herself. And Shoto gladly walks back into the fire every time so that he never loses her again, carving her a place by his side that lasts.
Half doesn't cut it anymore. They need both-for another day together.

The Grand King and Queen [Oikawa siblings]
Oikawa's sister... the great Oikawa Tooru, and his little sister. To get out of his shadows you went out to forge your own path, one away from him, but still with him. Just a couple of Oikawa sibling antics as they both work towards their dreams. Ups and downs and maybe even some love in between. The life of Oikawa Y/N, the first Oikawa to go to Shiratorizawa. I do not own Haikyuu or any of the characters ! Though there will be a significant amount of OC's which I've added for the sake of the story :) !! LOTS of manga spoilers !! Cussing! Lots of it too ahaaa This story travels throughout different parts of the series. The first 60~ chapters begin before cannon world actually starts! It starts with reader as a Junior high student for the first couple chapters before leading to Shiratorizawa. Once Shiratorizawa and that volleyball world starts, you're a first year until I say otherwise. (Chapter 63 ish is when you move on to second year) So yes, this starts before cannon, so EVERYONE IS YOUNGER, at the beginning. I'll add notes to clarify ages as the story goes on! Story is haikyuu x various until you finally end up w the ML🤭 this shit long asf, you've been warned‼️ Started; December 12, 2020 Ended; June 28, 2023 most impressive rankings 🥵 #1 on haikyuu #1 on oikawatooru #1 on Osamu #1 on Hirugami #2 on anime #2 on Atsumu #2 on Iwaizumi #5 on fanfiction Cover from azuldegracia on XComplete
