    Summary

    If this were anything like the comics, Izuku Midoriya being quirkless would be the norm while heroes would be treated as a rarity. As it stands, everyone’s got a super power, except for Izuku, of course. No worries, though, because he’s over it (nope) and has moved on to bigger and better things (again, nope) like working at a tiny comic book shop and indulging in stories where being able to lift a bus with your bare hands was deemed impossible until proven otherwise.

    Oh, and running into your heroic ex-boyfriend? Also unlikely. But Izuku’s life isn’t like a comic book (maybe?) and Katsuki Bakugou is standing right in front of him: still perfect, still handsome, and still putting his combat booted foot in his mouth.

    [Or: AU where Izuku works at a comic book shop because that’s as close to a hero as he’s gonna get, and Katsuki plays the part of heroic ex-boyfriend who is good at everything except winning Izuku back... maybe]

    Summary

    Just before hitting the ground, he realized something that struck him harder than the impending impact: he didn’t really want to die. What he truly wanted was a change. He wanted something different. He wanted to be someone different. He saw, with sudden clarity, that the path he had been so desperately trying to follow was the very thing that had led him to this moment. It was a path not meant for him, a path forged by and for everyone else but him.

    He was never meant to be a hero.
    --------------------------------------------
    Situated when everyone is around 25ish Years old.

    Au, where Midoriya never became a hero. Instead, he becomes a hero analyst with many secrets and is slightly more resentful about how everything turned out.
    Midoriya is done with everything and everyone. But when a new and dangerous new villain appears, he’s forced to go back to Japan to confront the threat but also his past, present, and future. And to make things even worse, he’s beginning to catch feelings for a man he’s spent years insisting he hates.

    Summary

    The last thing he remembers is leaving school. It was a half day, as he’d finished his exams early, texted May about staying over at Ned’s place, sent another text to MJ and then a twitch of his spider senses--

    Then a pinch at his neck, like a bee sting, but deeper. Darkness. Then here.

    Huh. Kidnapped. That’s new. If he was less emotionally dead from finals and sleep deprivation, he’d probably have a stronger and much more appropriate reaction to that.

    At least he's got Captain America and the Winter Soldier to keep him company.
