We Can All Be Heroes by Amandyalmonds

23 May 2025

Summary
Izuku wanted a lot of things.
To not be quirkless, to save lives, for Kacchan to act like his friend again.
But as the years went by, none of these things happened, until he started running into the now-graduated class of 1-A.
Or,
Izuku listens to Kacchan's bullying and doesn't apply to U.A. He still wants to save lives.
So instead of becoming a pro-hero, he becomes a paramedic.

Quirk(less) by awkwardnerdgirl_lex

Summary
Midoriya Izuku was not having a good day. First, he got hit by a car. Next, he got chased across the city by the police while the city was simultaneously swooped into chaos. Third, he somehow found himself stuck in the police station having manifested a quirk. Yup, this probably makes the top ten on the list of horrible days he's had to live through.

Inverted Heroics by ObsessiveOddball

Summary
Izuku Midoriya is used to no one believing in his dream, but he never thought it would hurt quite so much to hear his idol echo the words he had heard so many times before. With his dreams crushed, and his resolve faltering Izuku finds a new path, walking the fine line between good and evil. He just hopes he doesn’t fall on the wrong side when the time comes.
AKA the villain!Deku fic where Izuku follows a slightly more positive version of Stain’s moral code instead of joining the League of Villains.

Summary
“Who are you?”
They were just three words. But they were enough to break his heart into million pieces and for his life to go crashing down into the flames.
Or
He never thought a disease like this will take his life and love away. Slowly and gradually even, as if fate wasn't cruel enough already.
(If the Major Character Death is making you uncomfortable, the second chapter's an alternate ending.)
(Yuuri`s the one with Alzheimer's -- spoilers, but just wanted to clear things since usually it`s Victor in other fics or meta. :3 )

Summary
Because clearly, being fifteen and waking up six feet underground knowing your mouth had been sewn shut wasn't enough, he needed a nice dose of amnesia to go with it.
He'd have made it out just fine, led a normal life even, had Batman and his customary capacity for craziness not barged in.
Or, the one where Jason's not a beautiful princess and Damian's the actual best murder-brother anyone could ever ask for.

Summary
There was a ghost that haunted the decks of Lotus Pier, it was said. If you stepped across the wooden planks at night, walked along the endless docks and flying purple banners, he would appear.
He was always in darkest black, dressed as specter and shadow. In the emptiness where a face should be was a thick fog, features washed away and leaving behind only glimmering red eyes.
He looked ferocious as a ghoul, it was said.
Jin Ling thought he looked sad.

Summary
Midoriya Izuku just wants to lead a quiet, peaceful life. This is foiled by the fact that a) he can see spirits, b) his good nature demands that he help anyone he sees in trouble, and c) he, by all rights, should not exist.
Helping the heroes who have fallen victim to the new quirk-breaking drug is a terrible idea for many reasons, the first and most important being that he hates attention and avoids it like the plague. But he's the only one who can help, so he does.
This is, Izuku decides as he breaks in, more trouble than it's worth.

For Want of Izuku's Toe Joint by Talavin
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
14 Jul 2025
Tags
Summary
When he was four years old, the doctor showed Izuku and his mother the x-ray of the boy's foot. Since he only had one joint in his pinky toe, the doctor explained, there was a very high chance his quirk would manifest eventually. Year after year passed without any sign of it though, leaving Izuku to wonder if he could become a hero even without a quirk. Nevertheless, Izuku does possess a subtle, but extremely powerful ability - the kind that could make him the greatest hero of all time.

Burn Your Wings by oWhiteKiwibird
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
31 Dec 2020

Summary
Izuku inherited his parents’ quirks, but he swore he’d never use his fire.
He knows first hand how—bright, burning, scorching, painful, terrifying, destructive—it is, after all, and Izuku promised (promised his crying mother, promised his burning self, promised the laughing memory of his father) that he’d become a hero who stops that kind of despair.
Even if he has to burn his own wings to do so.
But when someone with the exact same problems, fears, and pain shows up... Izuku can't help but try to heal them. And in doing so, he himself may be healed too.

Summary
Tartarus is razed to the ground and Eri is visited by a man who's more than likely Afo to reverse the damage done to him. Izuku is terrified, but there's nothing he can do about any of it. He may as well just enjoy the time he's getting with his father, now that Hisashi is back home.

Summary
“Okay.” He took a deep breath and exhaled. He then looked at Phichit, “I was a figure skater for Japan but I retired about 18 years ago and currently, I work as a coach and choreographer with my partner. I skated under the name Katsuki Yuuri. I am, as of now in my mind at least, 47 years old.”
Phichit stared blankly at Yuuri. His twenty-year-old (soon to be twenty-one-year-old) son had just mentioned 'retirement' and 'years ago' in one sentence. He even added 47 somewhere in there.
“Huh...”
“Phichit?”
“Huh?”
“Err... I did tell you I have no explanation for this.”
“Ahh...”
Silence.
“Do you need water, Phichit?”
“No. I'll choke.”
“Err...”
“Yuuri...”
“Yes?”
“My poor beautiful smol son...” And then, Phichit wailed.
After an accident at the Free Skating warm-ups in Skate Canada for Season 2014 - 2015, Yuuri Katsuki changed. Everyone is in for a ride and Phichit is only eager to stoke the fire.
P.S
This is my first time writing a fanfiction. Please be kind to me! This is all just for fun while waiting for updates from the original anime series. Don't take this seriously.Series

Summary
In one universe, Deku means hope. He stands amongst crowds of heroes and leads humanity into a new era of prosperity.
In another branch, Deku means despair. He stands atop of a pile of corpses and leads villains into a new era of crime.
In a third branching timeline, Deku means Midoriya Izuku. He sits quietly by the window in his hospital room, and he sees them all.

The Art of Indifference by qye

Summary
Bakugou is used to being the center of attention- be it anger, confussion, or fear (mostly fear) everyone always gives him a reaction.
Until all the sudden, Deku doesn't.
What a fucking asshole.
NOTE: This fic was started a very long time ago, before the majority of the manga and the anime were released. As such, the characters are closer to their season 1 characterizations than they would realistically be, seeing everything else that happens. Soooooo, let's say this is an alternate universe where basically none of the actual plot points have taken place. Cool? Cool.
Hope you enjoy!
