Summary
In a world of magical gifts, Joshua cannot use his magic freely in Korea under the eye of a conservative culture. Being caught doing so? It invites disaster… When the worst happens, Joshua faces a frighteningly quiet new world. In the midst of Seventeen's debut, Joshua must adapt quickly – but he’s not alone and can count on some treasured friends on this new journey.
With each passing moment Joshua can feel the easing in Seokmin’s energy, the illness slowly relenting. The sharp fraying feeling that had reached up Seokmin’s throat gentles under Joshua’s will. A smile breaks across Joshua's face, his hands pulsing with the gentle warmth of the healing magic. Seokmin won’t be up tomorrow, or the next day – but. But he might be up the day –
“What - are you doing.”

Summary
Hitoshi knows there's something wrong with himself before he's even old enough to have a sense of self. He looks at his reflection and knows that the infant looking back at him isn't what he should be seeing.
His dreams are a maelstrom of grief and fear, his mind overwhelmed with a lifetime of emotions his brain isn't developed enough to comprehend. There's an ingrained instinct blaring that everything is wrong wrong wrong.
--
In which Hatake Kakashi is reincarnated as Shinsou Hitoshi, and he wants nothing to do with this world's so-called "heroes."

Summary
Billy Hargrove doesn't keep his promise to Max. He doesn't keep it in a pretty spectacular fashion, actually. Instead of staying away from her friends, he murders one of them.
Unfortunately for Billy, Hellfire meets right after basketball practice. And fortunately for Steve, Eddie knows CPR.
(Or: There is a clearly defined set of steps to keep someone's heart beating. There's no guide for the aftermath. Steve, Eddie, and everyone they love write one together.)

Summary
Ricky has a stalker.
They send him letters. They break into his house without a trace and leave gifts. A watch he never wore. A perfume he stopped using years ago. A quiet sign that someone has always been watching, and they’ve always been here.
The police are useless. No forced entry, no fingerprints, no leads. Just silent offerings and letters that know too much. Every security system fails. Every camera catches nothing. Every lock remains unbroken. But still, they get in. They watch.
Ricky refuses to let fear control his life and he most certainly won’t be driven from his home. So he finds his own solution.
He gets a guard dog.
Not some soulless one trained into hollow obedience, but something real. In illegal fighting rings beneath the city, Ricky finds his answer: a mutt with floppy ears who knows what lurks in darkness, because he's fought it before.
