Summary
New York City, 1904. The streets are full of smoke, noise, and promise. Romano arrives from southern Italy with nothing but grit in his teeth and fire in his gut, chasing a ghost of his brother and a chance at survival.
He finds a room above a bakery instead.
Alfred—bright-eyed, golden, and far too American—offers him bread, safety, and something worse: patience. But the city doesn’t run on kindness. Not when the mafia owns half the block, and not when Romano’s old name catches the attention of a different kind of Vargas.
There’s power waiting to be taken. Blood waiting to be spilled. And somewhere in between, a place to belong—if they don’t burn it down first.A gift for an old friend.

Summary
There's a beautiful statue of a boy in Yuuei University. No one knows how long it's been there or where it came from, but legend has it that one touch from the statue's soulmate can bring it back to life.
Katsuki stares down at the scarred hand holding his and shakily concludes that, yes, he's hallucinating and yes, he probably needs to lie down.
But his rationalizations are quickly dashed when he looks over his shoulder and finds his idiot friends sitting upright with their jaws on the ground, and identical looks of shock and disbelief on their dumb faces.
Katsuki's heart falls through his stomach.
No, no, nope, no, no fucking way, he thinks as he slowly turns around, hoping, no, praying to see pure, solid marble again.
---
Or a DKBK modern-day retelling of the myth Pygmalion and Galatea, featuring a very much in love Izuku and a very much in denial Katsuki.

Summary
Karamatsu didn't plan on running away, but after the NEET suddenly found himself at the side of a charming, kind-hearted look-alike of his brother, Karamatsu decided he was doing just that. After all, he had the strong impression that his brothers didn't want nor need him anymore, so Karamatsu was ready to abandon his old life and family.
Ichimatsu didn't even know that his brother was living under the roof of a stranger's house, but he was willing to prove Karamatsu wrong.
And Don basically finds himself a stray, runaway puppy and decides to adopt him. Which was totally fine. Except he didn't expect himself to fall for Karamatsu at all, which complicates this weird love-triangle even more.

Summary
Something goes wrong. The crown is split during Narinder's defeat, splitting the power between him and the Lamb.
Narinder keeps a portion of his godhood, and the Lamb finds that abilities they had access to before are no longer possible: Healing is cut short. Powers are halved. And there is a very real chance of permadeath, as the ability to resurrect is not possible without full power, and the God of Death is not cooperative.
Afterlife and Purgatory are not options either. Dying means erasure. Gone.Lambert knows Narinder grows stronger by the day, crown or not, and yet keeps him spared as they try to figure out how to complete their own goals. Narinder vows vengeance on the lamb for usurping him. After a few unsuccessful murder attempts, he's in for the long haul. It is only a matter of time before the Lamb's guard is down before he can strike, and The One Who Waits is very patient. When a mystic being demands they save the bishops from purgatory, an alliance is in order.
Except...the lamb's actions and their presence begin to unlock abilities within the God of Death he didn't know he had prior to his imprisonment, among other fickle things, like emotions. The prophecy didn't warn him of that part.
