Summary
It’s always stressful for Izuku when he enters a new home. He wishes it wasn’t. He wishes it was as senseless as returning to the Center, back to rusted cots and mildew bathrooms. But every time he steps into a new home, his emotions return, flaring up to remind him that he is still, unfortunately, alive.
---
Izuku Midoriya is strange. He talks more than Shouta expects but with an uneven smile that doesn’t reach his eyes. He’s eager to please, desperate to stay out of trouble, but something about his fake smile makes Shouta feel like he’s being laughed at.OR Quirkless orphan Izuku is placed under Shouta's care temporarily while the world tries its best to kill them both.

Summary
Aizawa Shouta’s instincts were nearly 100% accurate, as was his eye for small details. They were skills honed through years working the Underground, and only broadened when it came to dealing with 20 incredibly powerful teens year after year. So, when he noticed that Midoriya hadn’t brought a lunch for the fourth time this week, he knew something was off.

Summary
“When you’re older, sometimes you’ll need to be strong for other people,” he says when Izuku’s wails have subsided, his shaking the only sign that he’s still crying. “But right now, your job is to lean on me and the doctors and nurses and your friends. We’re here too, Izuku.”
Aizawa Shouta has been a fully-licensed Pro Hero for about one year and is still getting his legs under him, when a little boy with big green eyes and a smile like sunshine grabs him by the heartstrings after the murder of his mother. No child should have to bear such a loss alone.

“Did you,” Izuku pauses, clearing his throat “Did you come because you thought I might be here?” he thinks he sounds a little too hopeful.
"Yes." Eraser breathes out and he threads his fingers through Izuku's hair - gentle yet firm and grounding "I'm so glad I did."

Summary
Midoriya died when he was 4 years old.
He went to bed as usual after being tucked in by his mother, and drifted off to sleep not long after. He then woke up as he was walking down a street, in a body that wasn’t his and seeing out of eyes that didn’t belong to him with no way of controlling his body. A villain stabbed him as he turned down an alley, quickly relieving him of anything valuable in his pockets and left him to bleed out.
Then it happened again the next night, a patient in a hospital coughing up their last breath as Midoriya was locked into their head, seeing what they saw, feeling their pain and hearing their thoughts.
It wasn’t long before the doctors figured out that the young boy’s quirk was to blame for the nightly deaths. It was named “optogram” after the old roman superstition, and Midoriya never got a restful night of sleep again.
And yet, despite the horrors that came with every night, Midoriya was determined to help as many people as he could and stepped forward to start the UA entrance exam.

A Race to 'Freedom' by Frog_On_A_Lilypad

Summary
“Heroes have said that they will make it their top priority to find and save this boy from whatever danger he may be in. For now, all anyone can do is pray that Izuku Midoriya, a five year old quirkless boy, will be found and brought back to the safety of his home and the heroes.”
Izuku was now fourteen years old, and was still living in the shie hassakai yakuza stronghold. He had been taken when he was only five and no heroes had ever came to save him. Izuku still loves heroes though. It doesn't matter that he hasn't been saved by any... or that he probably never will be. Izuku still loves heroes. Heroes are really the only thing he still had that connected to the outside world and the few memories Izuku had from before he was taken. If anything, his love for heroes was a coping mechanism for all the experiments and pain he had endured over the years.
Izuku was left to wonder how much longer he would have to wait to get out of the hellish life he was living. How much longer until he was finally… Free?

Summary
Of course he knows he’s a pawn. He’s far too intelligent to not have figured that one out. But, still, he complies. He follows along because who else does he have? He’s abandoned, Quirkless, functionally useless to civilian society. At least this way he can be as close as possible to his childhood dreams of heroism.
--
Loyal asset of the Hero Public Safety Commission, Izuku Midoriya is ready for his next assignment. He was expecting to be up against powerful quirks, he was expecting to walk a fine line between the Commission and UA. Hell, he was even expecting the beady-eyed attention of Principal Nezu. The only thing no one was expecting - not the HPSC, not Nezu, and certainly not Izuku - was the wild and welcoming chaos of Hero Course Class 1A. Will they be enough to break Izuku out of his compliance?

Summary
Hound Dog growls in agreement as he nods. “Very much so, tell me Midoriya, what are your future plans?”
“Yea,” Hawks nods in agreement. “Where do you see yourself going, kiddo?”
The fourteen year old swallows, wiping his sweaty palms on his pants, and leans into the mic. His voice cracks. “Do…Do you want me to tell you what you want to hear or what I’m really going to do?”
The four heroes give him their undivided attention at that question, Nedzu looks up from his papers, Eraserhead looks up from his phone, eight pairs of eyes are on him and he shifts nervously.
“Well,” the winged hero sounds completely thrown by the question. “We’d like to hear what you’re really going to do.”
He leans into the mic again, void of anything and everything, and answers softly. “So, to answer your question, I plan on killing myself and don’t see a future for me.” The door to the auditorium opens, which signifies the ending of his session, so he bows. “Thank you for your time.”

Summary
The boy almost always had a big, bright, welcoming smile on his face. People’s first impression of him always ended in them loving him, there wasn’t anything not to love about him. He was bright in more ways than one, kind, friendly, and already had the heart of a hero in the making. It was hard to believe that he was the biological son of the worst villain in history.
