    Summary

    The public and press were buzzing with excitement and curiosity at the news that Todoroki Shouto, the son of the #2 Hero Endeavor, would be joining the incoming freshman class at U.A. that year.

    His homeroom teacher, Aizawa Shouta, however, had seen far too many like him - the privileged kids of famous heroes - egos monumental and undeserved. And Endeavor being boastful, ill-tempered and ruthless at best, made him almost sure that his kid would be most problematic of problem children.

    His classmates, while mostly concerned with the start of their own Hero journey, had heard the news. Endeavor was a household name, so of course they’re eager to meet his son.

    But once they did meet Todoroki Shouto, he didn't exactly fit into the shape any of them anticipated. In some ways he did - he’s cold and distant, perfect and untouchable. But in others he completely defies any and all expectations.

    .

    This Shouto fic will follow the teachers and students of class 1-A as they get to know him, and he them. As a clearer picture of his past and current home life begins to form, every one of them grows increasingly concerned for the Shouto that they’ve come to know and love.

    Summary

    Though the war is over, Shouta is left to cope with chronic pain from a lifetime of injuries and scars sustained over his time as a hero. Hizashi suggests an herbal solution to mitigate it.

    Hizashi shrugs him off, puts the joint to his lips, and takes a drag.

    "Sometimes we make selfish decisions that aren't entirely rational," Hizashi murmurs, smoke spilling out with each word. The visual is oddly tantalizing, even as his cheeriness drops into something more somber. "You're hurting, I'm hurting— so let's just not for a minute, okay? Now, c'mere."

    Hizashi lets out a sigh, and Shouta is convinced he can see the tension physically leave the blond's body alongside the wisps of smoke. He flops on their bed and with his free hand, pats the spot next to him. Shouta stares hard before succumbing to curiosity; he sits down and scoots along the bed until he's leaning into the familiar body warmth.

    Summary

    Izuku steps towards the other teen, holding his hand out to shake, “I’m Midoriya Izuku by the way. We haven’t officially met yet, right? I don’t remember seeing you at the Entrance Exam?”

    The blue-haired boy pauses, studies his hand uncertainly before shrugging. “Shirakumo Oboro,” he introduces in return, hand phasing right through Izuku’s when he goes to return the handshake. Shirakumo doesn’t seem surprised by it, but Izuku whips his hand back when the intense chill climbs up his arm.

    or,

    Izuku tries to pretend eveything is okay even though his homelife is crumbling around him, there's an insanely powerful Quirk that's not entirely his coursing through his veins, he suddenly knows his childhood hero, All Might, and to top it all off, he seems to have befriend a pastel blue-haired ghost that has way too much insider knowledge on Izuku's new homeroom teacher, and English teacher. He's really just trying to survive Yuuei...

    Summary

    I thought I would die. I thought I would die and all I wanted was for you to come save me.

    That was what he wanted to say. But the words stuck to his lips, and he stood there, unmoving. Frozen.

    “Shinsou?” Aizawa muttered. “What is it?”

    “Nothing,” Shinsou whispered, his voice dry and hoarse.

    ---

    Shinsou is captured by a group of quirk experimentalists over the summer. When he escapes, he returns to school a shell of his former self. Aizawa and Kaminari notice something is wrong as they try to uncover the truth.
