Summary
You couldn't even love yourself, so how were you meant to love someone else?
Katsuki knew that the relationship was hurting the both of you, even if he was too emotionally stunted to have a productive conversation, and everything he says comes off more insulting than he intends it to.
You, grieving the man you loved for 3 years, take out your anger in your music.

Summary
*Full description inside, because it's "too long"*
Jack loved his life as a Guardian. Protecting children, spreading joy, and finally belonging made the loneliness of his past feel distant, especially with Pitch gone. Yet the world has begun to change. Division, unrest, and a growing coldness spread with no clear cause, until Jack learns the truth: the Spirit of Love, Cupid, has been missing for over a century. To undo the damage, Jack and North set out to find her. Instead of the love-struck spirit he imagined, Jack finds a bitter recluse who agrees to help only if she can return to solitude once Strife—the Spirit of Anger and her natural opposite—is defeated. As Strife prepares for war, Cupid joins the Guardians one last time. Privately, North gives Jack a task: keep her happy. As he grows closer to her, affection comes easily for him, but painfully slow for her. She insists she’ll leave when it’s over, and Jack begins to realize how deeply immortality, loss, and love have scarred her.
Trigger warning! Reader has issues with self-loathing, self-worth, and suicide. If you can’t handle those topics, please read with care. I don’t own the canon characters or cover art; I own the original characters and plot.

Shin I-rang Law Firm
502, 10th floor, Okcheon Building, Sunrise Street, Bloomshore District, Linkon City
Call: XXXX-XXXX-98
You, an overworked Paralegal, isekaied a bit too hard (courtesy of Truck-kun) into a crossover world which seems familiar and confusing at the same time because why are you standing in front of a building at Sunrise Street with an offer from a very similar sounding k-drama lawyer with the power to see ghosts….and his office a Shaman’s former home.
With Skyhaven hovering over it.
As if that doesn’t make things weird enough, you keep running into the people who were once pixelated folks behind a screen of a game you played to decompress and cushion your burnout, but only now…fate had made sure you could not live as a cheering background NPC.
Or, to put simply, the Gacha gods drop you off to Love and Deepspace Universe with no return address and chaos ensues.

2) Piss off as many people as possible
3) Have funThere was just one problem…

Summary
Loop after loop, each time reset, each timeline erased, each story repeating over and over again. Then, you wake up, and suddenly, a creature appears, claiming to be there only to observe while you live out your wish—your damned wish. You were only meant to ensure that everyone else could live, but when that happens, when everyone gets their happy ending... what will happen to you?
Follow the story of (full name), who, after a dream, discovers that their wish has come true. Even though they don't remember what was in that dream, the beastly creature that appears insists that the words "I want to save everyone, no matter the cost" came from their own lips. But the creature isn't entirely cruel. It presents a choker, claiming that by pulling the trigger, they can die and reset time. And after countless resets, they finally turn to the creature for help. In return, it grants them a suit, a random weapon, and a random power—nothing more than a mere fragment of the creature's true power, whose origins remain unknown.

Summary
You go to a meeting. You go to work. You go home. Those were the only three places you visited.
The poster on the wall outside the brick & mortar says:
Strengthening Mental Health: Support Group for Anxiety and Depression
Monday, Wednesday, Friday 6:00am-7:00am / 8:00pm-9:00pmThere’s a corny image of a few hands clasped together. Grainy, like someone printed it from a stock image they didn’t pay for.
He sat in the back, listening.
You don’t talk. You never talk. But you listen intently, all your focus on whoever is up.
__
Dex is using his free time from hunting the AVTF to look after you, since apparently you're unwilling to do it yourself.

Summary
“You didn’t give it a last thought.
You made up your mind.
There was nothing left for you outside of this stupid war.
If you were let off, what could you even do?
Nobody else will accept you. Not even enemy armies.
Before you could be properly removed from their systems, you took one of the small shuttles they would probably chase after you for stealing, but at least it was one way to die.
But you wanted more of a bang. A more semi-notable death to not feel completely useless with yourself.” -
