Summary
Asphodel
My regrets follow you to the graveThere was a pulsing, an echoing in his skull. He couldn’t hear past it. It was like all other noise was simply gone. The dull ache resonated through his bones like a nail hammering into his temple. He couldn’t focus. He couldn’t act.
His eyes scanned the vision before him. He clawed at the earth. The feeling of his nails digging into the dirt was all that grounded him.
If he didn’t have that, if he wasn’t feeling the pinch and the wetness under his fingers, he was sure he would have lost himself.
Terror raced down his spine. He couldn’t help it.
He was staring at the worst sight of his life. He had seen it before, but only in passing. He had always managed to save them before it turned for the worst. He had never witnessed a death right in front of his eyes.But this, here and now, was something out of his worst nightmares. Because staring him down like a ticking bomb was the number over Aizawa’s head. The number counting down to his death.
And whereas that morning it had been a steady stream of days, amounting to several dozen years...Now there wasn’t even an hour left.

Summary
Sequel to Asphodel:
He's always been able to tell when a person was in danger of dying. The red flashes overhead and the pulsing echoes of numbers were a fact of life for Izuku. He trained to be ready for anything because a good hero was prepared for the worst. It helped him save countless others, including his teacher.
But what was he supposed to do when his skills amounted to nothing?
The Symbol of Evil hovered at the edge of his thoughts, a constant and foreboding presence. And he wasn't the only one. Stain stood to gain from the deaths of the heroes, some of whom Izuku called friends.
All those that Izuku cared about were in danger. And his abilities might not be enough to keep them safe. He was more terrified than ever of the counters flickering above their heads.Because Izuku knew, if he wasn't able to save someone, if a counter hit zero-
Then he would lose himself completelySeries

Summary
Sequel to Cyclamen
The world does not follow a set guide. The actions of others heavily influence how the future unfolds.
They both survived their daring plan. The two of them managed to make it out alive, and yet, not entirely in one piece. Izuku knows that part of him died with Stain and that he will never get it back. Hitoshi knows that he's will do anything and everything for the life he has. Shouto can't let go of the peace he has, not when he's spent so long experiencing only pain. None of them can return from where they came, so their only choice is to keep moving forward.
Even knowing that the world would not fall into a predictable pattern.
Even knowing they may be treading directly to their deaths.
Even knowing that their dreams to become heroes may very well no longer apply.
They have to keep moving forward or they'll lose everything.
