Summary
Quirkless, bullied, scrawny, orphan Yagi Toshinori has no chance at becoming a hero, much less the symbol of peace that he wants to be. But he refuses to give up on his dreams, and neither does the number one hero: Dekiru.
A semi-silly short story where Midoriya and Yagi's roles are reversed.

Summary
“Can I still be a hero, even without a quirk?”
‘Oh’
“My precious child,” Hisashi hugged his sobbing son, “Quirks are only one part of a person. And you, with your blinding smile and incredible mind that your mother and I love so much, have everything you need to become a hero.”
Midoriya Izuku's innate perseverance to become a hero and ability to analyze heroes and quirks are already impressive. What will happen when these qualities are encouraged and cultivated by a loving father who continues to give advice even beyond the grave?
Or: What if Horikoshi remembered that it takes two to create a child and gave Izuku the classic dead parent backstory to boot?
Rated M for language, angst, and detailed descriptions of injuries

Summary
Midoriya Izuku, grandson of Shimura Nana, was always a poorly thought-out backup plan after Shimura Tenko got snatched up by All Might. That backup plan becomes a lot more realistic once Izuku finally snaps only to be pulled back to the land of the living by his Sensei.
Shimura Tenko always had a 'villainous' quirk, but with his adopted father's help he was able to control it and use Decay to become a pro hero. Although, he might regret that decision when it leads to him becoming the teaching assistant for the hellions UA calls first-years.
Uraraka Ochako never had grand aspirations. For her, seeing her parents happy and taken care of was enough. Apparently, that motivation was also enough for the Symbol of Peace to declare her his successor after one conversation with her.
This is their story

Summary
After being kidnapped by cultists, learning he was a half-dragon, and being saved by a pretty dragon warrior with silver scales, Izuku's entire life has been turned upside down. Now whisked away to a new world, he must learn how to control his magic to end the Great Wither, keep out of the reaches of cultists who want to make him undead, and find the courage to confess his feelings to his silvery body guard.
It's a lot of growing pains, but if he can at least learn to stop blushing every time Ochako flirts with him, it'll be a start.

End of The Line by WindsCarryFar

Summary
The League of Villains consisted of some of the most dangerous individuals in their society. From decaying an entire city, to immolating the tallest of towers or to sneak in anywhere as anyone...but they are still constrained by human limits which brings their downfall when they bite off more than they can chew.
My take on the war arc and my frustration with the League of Villains as antagonists.

Build Me Up! by L3opard_Sp0ts

Summary
After his internship with Gran Torino and the Stain Incident, Izuku is stuck with one lingering thought: he can’t be another All Might. Gran had said his admiration was a shackle but what did it mean to not emulate All Might? Who was Izuku anyway if you stripped the All Might from him? Could little quirkless Izuku really be a hero? There’s only one thing to do really. If he needs help with being himself, then he’ll go to the one person who has never bowed to society’s expectations of her: the R-Rated Hero, Midnight!
It’s painfully obvious to Nemuri that Izuku Midoriya is about as awkward and anxiety riddled as possible but she’s never backed down from a challenge before. And if this bone-breaking nervous wreck needs a little self-confidence, well then she’ll just have to build him up one brick at a time.
Sometimes just a little confidence can change the whole world.
