Summary
It’s hard not to be patriotic in the DONI office, but it’s a fresh kind of patriotism. A kind that comes easily and leaves you feeling good. The kind she’d felt in the lead-up to last November, and which immediately left her body right after.
David had laughed when she told him that. “That’s just Alfred,” he’d said. “Newbies always feel a little high around him when they get started.”
Alfred, of course, being the person they refer to as The Boss despite the fact that his ID badge says he’s an intern. Alfred, of course, being the reason why this department exists in the first place. Alfred, of course, being… The United States of America personified in a human body.
For the sake of bullshit government efficiency, countless American federal workers are let go from their jobs in the summer of 2025. It was only a matter of time before the Department of National Identity was hit, as no one knows what they actually do. Who would have thought this would set off a chain reaction leading to the reveal of... immortal personified country people who walk among us.

She works fast, doesn't ask questions, and never wastes his time-already making her rarer than most of Class 1-A combined.
Bakugo doesn't know her name, doesn't know her face, and honestly doesn't care. They talk shop, exchange gear, and go their separate ways.

Summary
You're in the belly of the death machine that is the current America. Pregnant and alone after the passing of the first and only man you've loved, you find yourself frightened at the thought of raising your baby in the world that surrounds you.
By some freak duplication of a (0) and a (1) in a line of code, you're pulled from a near-death experience and thrown back in time to 1968 New Mexico, far from home and your plans washed away. You awake amidst a battlefield and are quickly injured in your unfamiliar surroundings.
Your worldview shaken and your timeline gone, you somehow find solace in the mismatched bunch of men who find you. Once you get past the bombastic personalities and bombs, of course.
-------
The RED Mercenaries of Tuefort find a young, pregnant girl in the midst of a fight in Barnblitz. Some take it much harder than others.

Summary
“How long will I live?”
“Eternal life and FOREVER.”Inspired by Billy🔴Chance’s bf (@billybb0y) on Tiktok
Chance was a chronic gambler, to say the least. Their addiction was over-the-top, with them staying up at all hours of the night attempting to gamble away all their money for more rewards. However, even though they literally ran the casino, their luck was shabby. They would pray to Lady Luck and still end up losing thousands.
That was, until the unlucky Robloxian met a certain hacker.
007n7 was feared, known for burning down towns and killing innocent lives in his shenanigans, doing all of this with an unknown collaborator. Chance had stumbled upon this man and Seven found interest in them. After spying, he saw their unlucky problem, and decided to try and create a solution that would benefit only him. Greed and sloth.
Bribing Chance, he was able to convince the poor Robloxian to sell his soul to 007 for eternal luck. It was good for awhile— until, well, it wasn’t.
What will happen afterwards? What will be Chance’s reaction whenever he believes he’s free after 007 goes missing— only to be summoned into the same realm as him.
