Summary
The brighter the light, the darker the shadows. And in a super-powered society, those shadows are dark indeed. But whilst the world desperately trained more and more heroes, making that light brighter and brighter, the prestigious hero school, UA, had another idea. Why not tackle the problem at its source?
And so was born the infamous class 1-A. Would-be criminals from all over the country were selected, and a group of twenty now roam the halls of the school, alongside the heroes of the next generation.
Last year, the entirety of Mr Aizawa’s class A graduated. But this year was different. No, he didn’t believe they would all graduate back into society like the classes before them. He believed they could become something bigger. That was why, with gritted teeth and a manic smile, Eraser Head turned to his new class of students and said:
"You aren't villains - you never were, and you never will be. But you can take that fire inside of you and put it to good use. We're in a hero school, aren't we? Well then...
"Let's be heroes."

Summary
As a child, Izuku Midoriya decided it would be better if he were Quirkless than to have a power that scared everyone. Now a teenager and looking to enter U.A, he finds himself as the protege of All Might and a student of the best heroes in the nation. But there's no running from a part of you, and he's learning the hard way that you have to accept all of yourself to be a real hero.
Having been partners in crime with Izuku ever since they were children, Katsuki Bakugo is more than a little surprised when his timid friend makes it into U.A with him. He's knows they're going places with the best heroes in the world to guide them, but Katsuki also knows that his best friend is heading into a world prepared to reject his very being. Try as he might to blast through those problems, there are some snags even his explosions cannot destroy.
As they both struggle to overcome their problems and support their surrogate brothers, Izuku and Katsuki somehow find themselves leading their class into the world of heroes- and desperately trying to protect a little girl called Eri, the first person they saved as a team.

Thirty Trillion Cells, Eleven Systems, One Body by Anonymous

Summary
The human body, Izuku thinks, is wonderfully complex. Everything working together in perfect synchronicity, from the beating of the heart, a twitch of a finger, or peristalsis of the gut. Every level of organization brought a new layer of complexity that endlessly fascinated him.
Life is just like the human body. Sometimes it doesn’t work the way we want it too. It hurts and aches and breaks and everyone does their best to hold themselves together through it all.
One small change in an orderly system can have devastating effects.

Something Borrowed by ThisCat
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia

Summary
Izuku wants to be a hero.
No matter what anyone says, his teachers, his classmates, or even Kacchan, he wants to be a hero.
It shouldn't matter that no one thinks he can. It shouldn't matter what people think, or say, because the only thing that matters is if he can, and he's at least going to try. He'll find a way. Even if his quirk is what it is, he'll find a way to be a hero without pushing anyone else down.
...but who has ever heard of a hero who needs to borrow other people's quirks just to fight?
(Currently on hiatus for an undetermined amount of time. Sorry.)

Summary
Midoriya Izuku has always been written off as weird. As if it's not bad enough to be the quirkless weakling, he has to be the weird quirkless weakling on top of it.
But truthfully, the "weird" part is the only part that's accurate. He's determined not to be a weakling, and in spite of what it says on paper, he's not actually quirkless. Even before meeting All-Might and taking on the power of One For All, Izuku isn't quirkless.
Not that anyone would believe it if he told them.

Summary
When Shinsou Hitoshi graduates middle school a year early, his parents send him on a road trip to see new places and experience new things. They just want him to find something he likes doing in case the hero route doesn't pan out. He never expected to bump into a wanted vigilante pretty much everywhere he goes, or for most of them to decide he's their new friend. He also didn't expect a certain scarf wielding hero to think he was a vigilante and hunt him down as well. How on earth did he become vigilante bait? He never asked for any of this to happen.
(Or, the AU where everyone in class 1-A is a vigilante, Shinsou somehow attracts vigilantes like moths to a flame, and Aizawa just isn't paid enough for this.)Bookmarked by Maxemilien

Quirk Spaghetti by LifeOfMystery for Emily_Elizabeth_Fowl

Summary
The campus of UA woke up, and everything was different. To be more specific, everyone’s quirks were different. A quirk swap.
Midoriya Izuku was the first one to notice this, who woke up feeling remarkably more calm than normal, and slowly got out of bed. The lack of residual strength to draw on felt like a dull hollow space where One for All normally sat.
One for All could not be taken, so he quickly came to a conclusion. No, it had not been taken, but swapped. It would likely only be temporary, so Izuku decided not to tell anyone his findings.
That, and he wanted to see the chaos of the quirk swap with his own eyes, fuelled by the needy mind of the High Specs quirk.

Summary
From a young age, Izuku had to hide his quirk. At first, he did it because his dad asked him to, because it was something special that he shared with him. It wasn't too long before he started hiding it in shame. When he finally meets his idol, All Might, Izuku decides he can't live like that anymore. He has to take down his villainous father, All for One, no matter how much it hurts.
Basically, I looked at some fan theories about Dr Tsubasa, All for One, and Izuku and then decided, 'Hey, I want to make a fic!"
The first arc is finished! And it can be read as a standalone fic. But why do that when there's more?
