Summary
She died once, and that should’ve been the end of it. But the universe doesn’t know mercy from cruelty—and sometimes, it calls that second chance a miracle. All she had to do was pay the price: everything she was, and everything she’d ever be.
Alternatively, in which a woman trades everything to remember the worst thing she ever did and suddenly its everyone else's problem.
Alternative alternatively, sometimes selfishness is one of the most bravest things you could do.

Summary
She never expected much when it came to dying. Maybe a shallow grave at the least, a tabloid headline at most. But instead, she woke up.
“Congratulations, Haruno-san,” came a voice, distant and muffled, as though she were hearing it underwater. “It’s a girl.”
Or, in which a woman who just wanted to die in peace wakes up in a body meant for something else entirely.

Summary
There're so many ways to say "I love you." and even more ways to say "Goodbye.”
But sometimes you never get the chance to say either.
He didn't realize it until his mother was gone, but Izuku comes to terms with the fact that, apparently, he is a very flawed and selfish boy. What's one to do when the person you love most in the world is taken from you, never to be seen again? Why, just get rid of the whole thing.
It's as they say; the devil doesn't come to you with a red face and horns, but disguised as everything you've ever wanted.
Alternatively, Izuku would do anything to get back to his mother, even dismantling Hero Society from the ground up.
Alternative alternatively, in which Midoriya Izuku betrays everyone and lives happily ever after.

because i could not stop for death by Rottenwrites
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia

Summary
When Aizawa passed out a form asking his class to write down their irrational fears, this wasn't what he expected. The paper had scuff marks from being erased and rewritten over and over, until finally the word 'touch' was scribbled on.
Aizawa doesn't like it, doesn't like the implications, and doesn't like the pit it creates in his chest.
___It takes him months to fully accept the fact that he's not dead, and even longer to grasp that superpowers weren't a figment of his imagination. Part of him is screaming at the universe for not giving him the peace he wanted, and the other part is lying down sobbing.
But there was one thing he was sure of, waking up sucks. Waking up into a world where the unnatural was natural? That sucks even more.
