Tale of Two Entrance Exams by Kizmet
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia (Anime & Manga)
19 Apr 2024
Tags
Summary
U.A's Entrance Exam is a flawed and highly biased test which wrongfully throws up barriers making it much harder for talented potential heroes like Shinsou Hitoshi and Aizawa Shouta to get into the Heroics Course… But before Aizawa failed his entrance exam, Kayama Nemuri passed it with Somnambulist, which, like Erasure and Brainwashing, only works on people, not robots.

Summary
Zuko was only eleven when he met a strange girl that his uncle had taken in.
Toph was only seven when her home was taken over, only to be whisked away to another nation.
And Iroh now had a tiny girl with jaded eyes under his care and protection, all for the dying wish of his late son.
In other words, a ward is adopted into the royal family of the Fire Nation. This changes everything but nothing at the same time.

What it Means to Be a Hero by DeusVerve
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
23 Jul 2022
Tags
Summary
Staring at a trembling boy before him, All Might knows what he would've wanted someone to tell him if he'd asked the Number One Hero if he could've been a Quirkless hero. And if that notebook he signed was anything to go by, a little help from Nedzu and the boy might even surpass him.
When Midoriya Izuku asks All Might if he can be a hero without a Quirk, the Symbol of Peace says 'Yes.'

I was too focused on my time limit instead of securing the villain. Even if you hadn’t hitched a ride, I would likely still have dropped the bottle.

“Brainwashing involves altering someone’s way of thinking, usually over a long time. [Shinso's] Quirk is more like hypnosis, or, more accurately, possession,”

“Sir!” says Iida. “Aren’t you concerned these lies of yours will cause us to lose trust in you?”“It’s possible,” says Mr. Aizawa. “But frankly, I think you can handle some motivational deception. It’s not like I routinely give you false information, unless it’s part of an exercise.”

Shadows: The Horror Movie Heroes by Clouds (myheadinthecoudsnotcomingdown)

Summary
Izuku Midoriya and Hitoshi Shinso are never going to be the kind of heroes that make civilains think ‘oh, thank god we’re saved,’ when they arrive at the scene. There's too much prejudice against them, so a kid with a villain quirk and one with no quirk at all are never going to be able to inspire that sort of trust.
So instead of becoming heroes that bring hope, they decide to become the next best thing.
The kind of heroes that make villains think, ‘oh, fuck, we’re screwed.’
This fic has a discord.

Kyoka <3
---
One for All focused on strength, obviously. Anyone who had ever seen All Might fight could see that much, but at the same time, Kyoka just couldn’t bring herself to believe that’s all there was to it. Quirks just weren’t that simple. Take her own quirk for example. Sure, it enhanced ehr hearing, but it also allowed her to project her heartbeat, not to mention the fact that it had a mutation element to it as well. It didn’t fall into a neat little category because her quirk wasn’t a one trick pony and she was pretty sure that was true for most quirks. One for All shouldn’t be any different.All Might was a strong hero, but his go-to solution was usually to punch things, which meant that for him, the solution was always to have bigger muscles than his opponent and force his way to victory by sheer strength and force of will, but...well, as much as Kyoka hated criticizing All Might, that didn’t always work. When she was singing, muscling through a difficult passage could do more harm than good. Instead of trying to get stronger in that case, the best thing to do was improve the technique and airflow so that she got a good quality sound without hurting herself. It was the same with her instruments. A guitar could be made of the strongest wood on earth, but if the player didn’t know how to use it, it would still sound terrible. There had to be some technique elements to using One for All that she should be preparing for in addition to just building muscle.

Summary
Mai's world burns around her as she watches the Agni Kai. No one is doing anything. Not Azula, who is watching on with a smile. Not the Fire Lord, who has a satisfied look on his face. Not Prince Iroh, who isn't even there.
Mai's world is burning, and she knows she is the only one who can douse the flames.
Or: What happens if Iroh isn't present for the Agni Kai? What happens when someone else steps up to take his place?
Featuring: baby BAMFs, Mai and Zuko being chaotic goth BFFs, the Yuyan adopting not one but two (2) feral children, and June making excuses to visit the Pohuai Stronghold in order to check in on her apprentices (*cough, cough* little siblings *cough, cough*)
Officially updating every other Monday!

Summary
Loki has always felt a little different on Asgard, cast out from his brother and his friends. But when he happens across a passage to Midgard, he finds himself under the bed of a hyper and overenthusiastic nine year old, Darcy Lewis, who is shocked there's a kid under her bed and not a monster. Loki soon learns that his new Midgardian friend shares not only his love of books, but also undying curiosity for the world around them.
Together, they make monumental childhood discoveries, go on dangerous adventures, and get into heaps...and heaps...and heaps of trouble.

Summary
Iroh is tired when he heads to his quarters to write a letter to the rest of his family in the Fire Nation. So tired, in fact, that he accidentally implies in it that the knife is meant for his niece and the doll for his nephew. Azula and Ursa don’t notice the mistake.
Zuko, however, does.

Summary
The shadow is a silhouette on the edge of the roof. She can’t see his eyes behind the blank white lenses of his cowl, but she can feel the cunning weight of his gaze as it rakes over her, a pair of predators recognizing one another. She keeps her posture relaxed. She looks back at him with steady eyes.
She is not prey.
She will not allow the kind boy behind her to be prey either.

Stephanie Brown and Jason Todd have been brother and sister for approximately three years. Not by blood, or by law, but by the simple fact that they once spent an afternoon together on the floor of a hospital waiting room.
When the two are separated by circumstance (and perhaps some well-intentioned meddling), Jason and Steph are forced to navigate the changes that come with new lives, new families, new homes, and new secret identities. It's just too bad that the bad guys have been plotting something too...

Summary
@lieutenantobvious | so batman hates batgirl, huh
@ohnoourtableitsbroken3 | omg why is this so embarrassing??? im embarrassed FOR her
@sugarsweetbabiex | god i want batdaddy to shout at me too
Babs sees a little face over her crossword puzzle and a pair of impossibly light blue eyes looking at her. She jolts, clutching her chest.
“Hi,” Tim says obliviously, casually balancing his weight on her drawn-up knees with his soft gummy palms. “You look sad.”
--
15-year-old Babs has never needed validation from anyone, but... Batman's latest words to her have left her spiraling. It would be a good time for a mental health break, if not for the men trying to kidnap 5-year-old Timothy Drake while she's babysitting him.- Language:
