    This story is like the highschool drama I never had LMAOOOO
    When I first started it I thought reader was so mean but I found a piece of myself in her,,, haha I didn’t like it, not cause the character was written wrong but because in some ways— reader never let some things go,,, and this affected her relationship with Deku soooo much lol, specially the— the attachment they had with each other

    Unlike us, Deku lets go, and he always forgave us.

    This is a story of childhood friends to enemies to lovers LMAOOOOO

    I also absolutely love the way the baby project advanced the plot, such a good plot stimuli!!!

    I love love the fight scenes,,, I also absolutely adore that it’s so gradual— it’s slow burn at its finest but— REALL delicate, if you did one wrong move it WOULD burn— it’s exciting to have that uncertainty— but it becomes tenfold when you DO get the certainty.

    Deffo worth a reread, wanna come back and read this, annotate it again, experience it again

    Summary

    "Y/n, my dear, you came from the sky."

    After being an assassin against your will for almost your entire life, you finally gain your freedom when you break the spell of the man controlling you, only to fall right into the wild and exciting lives of a pair of young kings and their rowdy council. But the sunshine on the horizon is fleeting, because in the wake of your freedom comes the promise of war, and you find yourself thrust into a position of importance as one of the only people who can stop it. Questions arise about who you are and where you came from, and as you search for the answers, you may find yourself learning just as much about you as everyone else does.

    Adjust to living life free, learning who you are, and make friends. Redeem yourself. And maybe, if you're lucky, you might even find the person you're meant to love for the rest of your life. Or maybe, they're already closer than you think. Can you love your soulmates even when you don't know they're yours?

    Real fleshed out story.
    Awesome how all of the characters are written and how the plot is shown
    WORD BUILDING BE AMAZING LIKE HOLY SHITTT
    Tbh tbh, I came for the ships but GODDAMN THE PLOT LINE GRABS U BY THE NECK AND TELLS U TO LISTEN UPPPP
    It’s such a good plot, and (obviously) I love the characters.

    Very very VERY slow burn (love it) making the special moments that much important.

    Definitely worth a read (maybe two) (maybe three). Feels like a real book. As I’m saying, the world building and the relationship between character fucking slays

    Something I just couldn’t stop reading every paragraph felt in place, never did I feel like there was a point in the story where I wanted to stop. Apart from that whenever I read this fic I always feel like smiling. Soft and rough in all the right places. Very light hearted but also very rough handed when it needed to be

    As of now the story isn’t finished, and I haven’t caught up either… kinda don’t want it to end. Definitely on my reread list.

    Summary

    pro-hero deku rarely breaks from routine - the one he'd been keeping up with damn near four years. he's meticulous and lonely. he finds he doesn't really have time to feel things like love or lust or anything inbetween. he only meets you under circumstance and he finds himself unprepared for the chaos you set off in his heart. what is love but an escape from the loneliness of life?

    Deffo one of my favorite Izuku oneshots
    It’s so so good. So well written
    Goes over themes of loneliness and finding love—
    And really accepting and committing and taking that love—
    I loved the that in the fic it is talked about love in the way that falling in love is not a choice— but waking up and choosing to cherish that person everyday is the choice— LOVING on itself it’s a choice. It feels so nice to feel like— someone had those options and he choose you, and he cherish you, because it was like the air he needed. And I love that the author wrote it that way because even though it was a choice— an option— it was all he wanted (and a little bit of change)

    It also takes more insight into Izuku’s point of view which is not usually seen in fics like these, which they also delivered amazingly.

    In the world where loneliness is easier to find, easier to stay with, because of the burdens that come with being with somebody— izuku will choose you every time. He will choose you like it’s easy even though it’s hard, he will stand in your front door and embrace you.

    In the world where loneliness is easier to find. He will always choose you. Because loving is a choice, showing up is a choice, and he will chose you every time, like it’s easy.
