Hebert Disassembly Services Chapter 3: Spiraling///

<<<Designation T/Taylor Hebert>>>

Not long after their small pizza party with Vista, Dad was allowed to visit. Which had been… awkward. Taylor tried engaging him in small talk, which worked, but it was still stilted and awkward. Just like it had been for years now.

A part of Taylor was disappointed, but ultimately not surprised. Just because she’d achieved ‘perfect’ psychological health didn’t mean others would too. And now with the abi...

Hebert Disassembly Services Chapter 2: Conversations///

[center]<<<Emily Piggot>>>[/center]

Despite popular belief, she didn’t hate parahumans; she just didn’t trust them. She believed it was foolish to trust traumatized men and women as a police force for villainous parahumans; however, she was just a cog in the machine. And she was pragmatic enough to simply swallow her opinions and work with what she’s got. 

And despite her low opinion, she grew to trust the parahumans in the ENE Protec...

Hebert Dissaembly Services Chapter 1: Processing///

<<<Designation: T/Taylor Hebert>>>

Master/Stranger Confinement turned out to be extremely boring, consisting of interviews and waiting. And seeing as Taylor had nothing to read besides out-of-date magazines, she opted to explore her OS and… huh.

Turns out she could still access the internet and the PRT systems despite the cell doubling as a Faraday cage. Neat, though she decided not to poke at the PRT systems… despite them being full of hole...

An Undead Academic Experience 9

Chapter 9: Detonation

<<<All Might>>>

When young Sato was abducted due to his foolishness, it felt like a stab to his missing guts. It was, however, just another failure to add to the pile, and while his successes overshadowed his failures by miles. Those failures weighed him down, like an albatross around his neck. And it was only now did he realize the ultimate failure.

While he ushered in an Age of Peace, which he...

Chapter 8: A Not-So Harrowing Escape

<<<Kana Sato>>>

Soft clinks echoed in her cell, the chains slowly swaying with herself. It was time consuming, gathering power that way. Millimeters back and forth, dozens, perhaps hundreds, of joules in each movement. The thrum and bangs of noise added a touch more, but it was only ever a touch. With what she had, what she could do, it would take time and time again to gather the power...

Chapter 16: ‘Work Experience’ Doesn’t Work

<<<Monday>>>

Pain. Monday’s word of the day was Pain. Oh she wasn’t in it at that very moment, but getting smacked around by giant rock monsters was not her idea of a fun time! ‘We’re training your situational awareness’ her ass!

But that was hours before! Now she was… going to do something they didn’t tell her yet. And she had the premonition that it w...

Chapter 15: What Do You Mean It Isn’t Paid?

<<<Himari/Spirit>>>

Himari hummed as she stepped, rode, towards their agreed upon meeting place. The sniper wished to encounter her in a nice, large, flat space. A park, in other words. It spoke of paranoia born of experience, and since she was riding on a mechanical dragon with more weapons than the average army battalion it made sense.

So naturally she decided to have some fun...

Chapter 14: Internship Talks

“Only ten seconds, finally you lot are starting to get it.” Aizawa said as he walked to the front of the class, “You all performed adequately in the Sports Festival, even if some of you made a joke of the entire event.” No one had to even guess who that was directed towards, “So here are the results.” He added as he pulled a remote out and clicked it, causing a hidden projecto...

Chapter 7: Aftermath

<<<Xiao ‘Lily’ Lang>>>

As expected of a school, even more so of UA, after what was coming to be called the USJ Incident, class 1A  was given a week to recover. Though in Lily’s case, she found herself mainly brooding, Izuki pulled her out of it whenever she called to talk, which usually evolved into quirk debates.

It helped, but didn’t change the fact that she still felt responsible ...

“Okay, ready Tay?” Honestly, she didn’t even have to ask, really.

No one wants anything to do with Lockheart more than Taylor, not that she didn’t understand or share her sister's opinions. If he ever tried what he did in their first class again, she’s pretty confident that Taylor could murder him and the entire year and all the Houses would cover for her.

Well, not the fangirls, but at that level of simpering,...

Apologies for the delay

Chapter 6: The USJ

<<<Kana Sato>>>

Kana hummed as a horde of reporters and paparazzi met her on the way into UA; not unexpected, but earlier than anticipated. There were a few ways she could go about interacting with them. Acting aloof and above it all would give her a cool vibe, though that would conflict with the ‘odd girl’ image her classmates had of her.

She could be charismatic and poetic, but that had the same problem… she’d need to...
