    Summary

    All Might told him to be realistic. Endeavor told him to be relentless.

    What started as spite becomes something else entirely when Izuku doesn't just survive UA's hero course—he thrives.

    Izuku isn't disruptive because he's quirkless. He's disruptive because he invalidates excuses. He demonstrates that heroism is about the work you do and the people beside you. Not the quirk you were born with.

    He becomes an unwilling symbol, and the world fights over what he represents. Inspiration. Threat. Evidence that the system works, or proof it's broken.

    And a system built on power cannot tolerate proof that it isn't necessary.

    Izuku just wants to help his friends become the best heroes they can be.

    It's very frustrating that the world keeps making it so difficult.

    Means he'll just have to work harder.

    Summary

    After a villain attack and a very bad day, Midoriya Izuku does not receive a miracle.

    Endeavor intervenes. But Endeavor is not the sort to offer cozy comfort. He offers resources, expectations, and oversight.

    But with structure, supervision, and time, Izuku learns what it means to be useful without being expendable.

    What follows is not redemption, forgiveness, or a shortcut to greatness
    This is about being quietly powerful.
    Adapting.

    Along the way, Todoroki Shouto learns what it means to train with someone instead of alone.

    Summary

    All things considered, Zelda's pregnancy has been going pretty well. She barely had any morning sickness, and her mood swings have been pretty mild, if she says so herself. In her second trimester now, she's showing, but not yet so big as for it to be unmanageable, and she's full of energy. But, maybe, she thinks, not nearly enough energy to deal with whatever is happening in her and Link's house in the new Castle Town right this moment. And she is not sure what exactly is happening: an entirely too elaborate Yiga assassination attempt complete with disguises of people long dead, or time travel. Knowing her life, either of these options is likely, as well as a hundred more she hasn't yet thought of.

    “What the fuck,” she thinks.

    “What the FUCK,” she says.

    Summary

    The war is over. But while on patrol, Aizawa and Midoriya are both hit by a quirk that sends them back in time in an alternate universe. A universe where Aizawa is a villain, not Oboro. Now, both Aizawa and Midoriya need to figure out what's wrong and undo it somehow, before time runs out.

    Summary

    "Admit it, Eraser. You've finally fallen in love with me, haven't you?"

     

     

    Shouta wonders for neither the first nor the last time what he's getting himself into.

    "No," he finally replies, "but I think my ward might've."


    Or: the one where Eri gets a mom, Aizawa gets a headache, Emi adopts half of UA, and laughter really is the best medicine.

    Summary

    Shouta took the papers without a word. Mostly standard: release forms, clearance, a summary of his work history signed off by his boss.

    Then he noticed them. Tucked between the documents. A stack of letters, worn around the edges. His name scrawled across the front in different handwriting.

    Fan mail.

    He raised an eyebrow. “What’s this?” he asked to be sure, holding up the letters.

    She glanced down, then gave a dismissive wave. “Oh, those? Fan mail. Mostly from one person. We don’t know how they got the address. But it’s underground division policy; No public interaction, so we kept them.”

    His grip tightened slightly.

    “You kept my mail?”

    Or:

    Midoriya was a Eraserhead Fanboy from the start and wrote him letters since he was a child, but he never got them. Now that he quit he finally found out and will read them all.
    Enter sweet kid Midoriya and protective Aizawa!

    Summary


    Just some soft Eri, Izu and Dadzawa fluff~

    ---

    Sticky fingers cleaned up, twenty minutes later, on their feet again, energy bubbling, Izuku lets Eri climb him, clambering up his hip, his shoulders, swinging briefly from his elbow to grab onto his back. Her occasional parkour lessons with Aizawa-sensei are very much showing.

     

    Then she's wriggling back around to be hanging from the front of his shoulder, pressed against his chest, and Izuku can't help but grin down at her, looping an arm below her butt to keep her solidly in place,

    "Hey, want to see your Dad?"  There's a gleam of mischief to her then, a hint of her Dad's Cheshire grin, 

    "Yes!"  And Izuku doesn't know it, but there's an edge of that same demented sharpness to his own expression as he beams at his teacher,

    "Sensei, catch!"

    Summary

    Nine days is a long time, all too fucking long. And there’s clearly some kind of Quirk interference or ability, messing with Izuku's senses and reality.

    They’d expected this might be a possibility, but Shouta did not expect for the effect to be lingering this far into the rescue operation.

     
    Izuku's sight is currently gone, and he does not trust that it's Shouta speaking to him. This has just made the whole rescue operation a whole lot more difficult.

    Summary

    They're at a distance close enough to look like they're familiar with each other, but Shouta knows most of the people in Midoriya's life.

    If this is his father, then it’s probably not good news. And if it isn’t, then that’s probably even worse.

    He lingers, watching the two of them. Just because he knows most of the people in Midoriya's life doesn't mean he knows them all. But he can't gauge Midoriya's level of comfort from this angle, and something about the scene isn't sitting right with him.

    Summary

    "He's a cat, so," Shouta replies.

    Sekijirou blinks at him. "He's— what."

    "A cat."

    "Okay," Sekijirou says, voice surprisingly high in his shock. "Want to explain why?"

    "Because it's Midoriya," Shouta grumbles, waving his other hand in the air like that explains it. And it does, really, because of course it's Midoriya. The universe has decreed that if there's trouble in Shouta’s life, then Midoriya is going to be at the heart of it.

    Shouta isn't convinced that Midoriya being a cat for a week is going to be easy. Apparently, this might be one of the rare times he's wrong.

    Summary

    Uraraka hops from one foot to the other and puffs air out of her mouth. “The problem is Deku,” she says.

    Isn’t it always, Shouta thinks. Aloud, he says, “And what has he done this time?”

    He hasn’t done anything,” Uraraka protests. “It’s what you’re doing to him that’s the issue. You’re really gonna leave him in the dorms all by himself for four whole days?”

    “I’d like to hear what else you’d have me do,” Shouta says, genuinely. “Do you have any reasonable alternatives in mind?” He's not optimistic that she does, but it is worth a shot.


    (In which, due to unfortunate circumstances outside everyone's control, Izuku faces the prospect of spending a few days of break alone on campus, and his friends take it upon themselves to intervene.)

    Summary

    She had captured his attention right away, and his heart not long after. The following months were some of the best in his life. Inko was like a missing puzzle piece he never knew he’d been missing. He began looking forward to coming home. He was more careful on patrols, and eight months after they had started dating, he began to save up any spare change he could after his measly pay from being a beginning underground hero. He had wanted what they had to last forever.

    Shouta had been so sure that she had felt the same way. He had been so sure. Until he came home from a long, hard patrol to find her gone.

    Summary

    In the end of the world, only two remained.

    Aizawa and Midoriya lived through the destruction of Japan, and were left with only each other as they lived in their new normal. They were okay.

    But then they went back.

    Or

    A Dadzawa time-travel fix-it fic where the first war ended much worse than it did in the original story.

    Summary

    Most people who are time travelers don't have a time quirk. They're simply in the wrong place at the wrong time and fall victim to someone else's. Midoriya Izuku, the walking definition of "danger magnet", is one such case. In the space of time between getting his provisional license and hunting down a work-study, he finds himself...out of time. 15 years in the past, to be exact. And he has no idea how to get home.

    Summary

    When Aizawa expelled his entire class, he didn't expect to end up undercover at Aldera Middle School as a maths teacher, trying to uncover part of a human trafficking ring.

    He certainly didn't expect to find rampant discrimination and a new problem child to deal with.

    OR

    Aizawa is sent undercover to Aldera, and of course Midoriya manages to get involved.

    Summary

    While out on patrol, Shouta comes across Midoriya, who may or may not have unlawfully apprehended a villain. As it turns out, Midoriya seems to have an affinity for getting involved in trouble.

    And as it turns out, Shouta seems to have an affinity for taking in powerful, aspiring heroes.

    (Hizashi just says that between Oboro and Shouta, they simply have the tendency to take in strays. Hizashi is rarely ever wrong.)
