Why Time Travel Diego/Lila Fanfiction Works So Well

Diego Hargreeves/Lila Pitts — The knife-throwing vigilante meets his match in a Commission-raised chaos agent who mirrors any power she touches — including his ego. From asylum meet-cute to married parents across apocalypses, theirs is the Umbrella Academy's most functional dysfunction.

Time Travel — Characters travel through time, either to change events, escape danger, or by accident. Romance may span different time periods or involve changing the past.

Two trained weapons raised by terrible parents recognizing each other instantly is the show's thesis in romance form. The excitement of different time periods, the complexity of temporal paradoxes, and the possibility of fixing past mistakes or finding love across time. That's why time travel Diego/Lila fanfiction is one of the most consistently popular combinations on AO3.
