    Summary

    “Well.” She tucked some hair behind her ear, “I’ll see you later then.”

    At her cue, he stopped following along, letting her move away from him, and he watched as she walked off, shouting after her, “I’ll see you! Just you wait! I’m gonna court you! I’m gonna court you so hard!”

    She flipped him off over her back, and Simon grinned, not at all offended.

    Or: 3 times Simon went to Doric, and 1 time Doric went to Simon. Also, he's courting her so hard.

    Summary

    "So what are you looking for in a girl?" Kayano asks, eyes glinting.

    Karma pretends to ponder it. "Oh, definitely someone short, with a high voice. Cool colored hair is nice, maybe green or blue. And pigtails. Definitely pigtails." His taste is also decidedly male, but that’s none of their business.

    "Oh my god," Nakamura whispers to Fuwa. "It's so obvious. He totally has a thing for Kayano."

    The girls of class 3-E are determined to match Karma up with someone. Problem is, he's already taken.

    Summary

    Satoru doesn't survive the fight with Fushiguro Toji. He dies, cold and alone, leaving behind only a curse with a taste for carnage. Suguru brings that curse to his lips, swallows down the remains of his best friend, his one and only. He doesn't know if it's Satoru's soul or just a mindless curse he's ingesting, but still, he can't part with it.

    Summary

    The boy shifts on his feet. “The year is two thousand and eighteen? Common Era?”

    Slowly, smile still plastic on his face, Suguru faces Satoru. This fucking dumbass. “Satoru,” he says, dangerous edge to his voice, “what did you do?

    Satoru makes some bastardization of a sound, half between a laugh and a cough. “...Whoops?”

    “I,” Suguru grits, pinching two fingers together, “am this close to mass murder.” He’s joking. Probably.

    Summary

    The kid stuck out a tongue, swiping the impressive fringe on his face away. Diego’s heart stopped. “Well, this loser just got a 91 on his Pre-Calc final, so eat it.” He threw his head back and shout-sang, “We-e-e-e are the champions, my friends!”

    Holy shit, that was Five, and he looked like a fucking weeb.

    Diego was vividly reminded of scene culture as he stared at the slightly-off version of his youngest older brother. Admittedly, it could’ve been a lot worse. The kid’s hair was dyed the same shade as the Five Diego knew and tolerated now, and some of his jewelry actually could’ve been regarded as cool, if it wasn’t clearly cheap plastic. He looked like the same not-age Five was now, just way more cringe.

    “At times like this,” said the other, slightly older kid, dryly, “I hate that I even have to call you my brother.”

    Diego’s chuckle died in his throat.


    or, the Infinite Switchboard shows the Hargreeves a timeline where Five Hargreeves grew up not a Hargreeves, not Five, and not anything like the old man they know. The comparison is funny, until it isn't, because being reminded of what could have been is its own kind of torture.
