forget-me-not and take courage, he who is duty-bound by AlexaRouge

Summary
Atsumu wakes up in what he will eventually learn from Motoya is the Shrine of Resurrection, his memories barren but his body marked with scars of forgotten stories. He wakes up to a barely familiar voice, stringent and irritable yet comforting in a way he hopes he’ll eventually be able to explain. He wakes up for a destiny he isn’t sure he can fulfill.
Atsumu had. . . a family? He also had friends. Fellow champions, his mind whispers. Someone else who shared his face. Two-toned. . .feathers? A rock-hard reprimanding pat on the back. Sharp narrow eyes, and even sharper teeth. Cool yet caring glances given behind a smart pair of glasses. Their names slip through his fingers and haunt him in his nightmares.
Atsumu served – serves – a prince. He knows he serves him out of obligation and duty, a mishmash of guilt and the sort of courage found in good people and vessels of the hero’s spirit. He knows he served him to the best of his ability yet ultimately failed him and the kingdom. What he doesn’t know yet is that he served him out of love as well.
(or: BOTW told in vignettes but I shove SakuAtsu down its throat.)

Summary
(Formerly known as Into the Deku-Verse)
Shota sneers at the teenager across from him. His defense raises like the hairs on the back of his neck as he glares steadily, ready and waiting for whatever will come from this encounter. He narrows his gaze when the teen shifts; just the thought of sharing this rooftop with Japan's most notorious villain makes his skin prickle. “Deku.”
“Y-yes!” the teenager cries out in relief, taking a small step towards Shota, “I’m Deku! I’m so g-glad you—”
“Deku,” Shota growls darkly, flicking out his capture weapon hastily to snag the villain before he can make his move. He's quick to tug it taut, leaving no room for Deku to escape. “You’re under arrest.”
“I-I’m what?! W-wait!”
tl;dr
Hero Course student Izuku comes to the realization that he is definitely not where he's supposed to be.

Bookmarker's Notes
He sets his hand on the knob, and draws in a breath, expecting something— a trap or something, maybe— as he turns the handle and—
Nothing happens.
It doesn’t even turn. Izuku’s hand tightens on the metal handle, giving it another sharp turn, even channeling One for All faintly to get the job done but...
It’s locked.
“Whole lock’s busted,” Deku tells him, uninterested. Or... seemingly uninterested. His voice hitches in a way Izuku knows his own voice does too, and for some reason, guilt pools in his chest. “This side of the handle doesn’t even turn. I should know; I tried for hours. And inside you’ve gotta yank on the handle and kick the door in or it’s useless too. Also took ages to figure out.”
“It’s...” Izuku stares at the door in disbelief, “it’s locked. It was... it was locked that day. With All Might. That’s why you never— why you were never— you couldn’t go down.”

Summary
A Papalogia AU
When a startling discovery drains the dreaded Black Dragon of the Apocalypse of his anger, Acnologia is left wandering through the centuries without clear purpose. Somehow, it is a path that leads to five young dragon slayers coming into his care and to the joining of a guild of human mages—who are also mostly children. No, he has no idea what he is doing, but if it is what it takes to atone for his sins, then he is willing to try.
However, with the shadows of the Dragon War still lingering, the plight of the dragon slayers is not over. But this time, Acnologia found something to protect, and he would fight the gods themselves if it would keep them safe. Unfortunately, it is a resolve that may prove to be true.
Acnologia and the dragon slayers, and their journey alongside Fairy Tail.

Bookmarker's Notes
Lisanna had given a soft smile and mentioned having it set in a necklace. Freed looked his over with a fond expression that Laxus couldn’t understand but for some reason it made Freed happy so he wasn’t complaining.
“Here,” Laxus said, passing his own stone over to Freed, “It’s not something I’d ever use. You can have it.”
“Really?” Freed checked, then smiled brightly when Laxus nodded. “Thank you. This is perfect. It’s just what Juvia’s been looking for.” Then he walked on ahead to speak to their employer about when the next train left.
Laxus froze. There was a heavy feeling in his chest and stomach he couldn’t identify. “Juvia?” he asked in confusion. He hadn’t even known that Freed interacted with her.
“You didn’t know?” Lisanna asked in surprise.
“Know what?”
“Mira-nee says they’re dating.”
The heavy feeling intensified. “What?”

Summary
The Kingdom of Fiore. A neutral country of 17 million people. It is a world of Magic.

It is in this land that a familiar guild, formed by familiar mages embarks on familiar adventures, and it all starts much the same way as before, with the arrival of a familiar blonde to a familiar building to meet familiar faces.
"Hello, my name is Izuku Midoriya. A Fairy Tail mage!"
Okay. Maybe its not all that familiar.
Well, how about we find out what else changed? Fairy Tail has never been the type to conform, after all!

Bookmarker's Notes
“Oh right. You’re probably new, yeah? Never seen ya with Goodfellow before.”
Good what?
“Who?”
“I meant our little friend over there.” Gesturing to the field, Lucy saw that Izuku had seemingly finished helping with harvesting the fields and was instead replacing damaged or broken tools. Things like bent shovels or cracked hammers. A small line of farm hands formed as the mage went about creating replicas with his Earth Make.
Sometimes they came out perfect, other times he apologized and had to make them again when they came out even slightly crooked or cracked.
“I didn’t know he had a nickname like that.”
“Not quite a nickname. It’s just how some people at the village took to calling him after the first couple months. See… we’d be lucky if we managed to get a mage to come down here every couple months or so, way too expensive for us. But then he started coming over. Week after week, month after month.”
