    Summary

    Beside him, Endo had turned to speak again, a smirk still playing at his lips- only for the look to falter the moment he caught sight of Sakura’s face.
    White as a sheet. Mismatched eyes wide and unfocused. Every muscle trembling.

    “Sakura?”

    But Sakura failed to answer, his pulse thundering in his ears, ragged and uneven, drowning out the other's words.

    (Or: I make Sakura's backstory 10 times worse.)

    Summary

    Izuku was 4 and he was on his way to the quirk doctor with his mother and father, fairly neat, grey-speckled-blue kanji written across his arm.

    Izuku was 5 and he had no quirk, no father, and he didn't really have friends either.

    What he did have, was 3 colours splashed across his body and orders to never stain their skin with his own.

    Distantly, he wonders what it would have been like, to see the green of his eyes splash across the skin of someone who would love you no matter what. It seems nice.

    Summary

    "No human is infallible to apathy after all, not even him.

    Not even he who dreamed of changing the world as a hero, who burned and soared with this frail hope on wings of wax that fell away when the heat got too much to bear- he still had the burn scars to show that he held on for as long as he could- after society turned a blind eye to his strife."

    Or there's something festering in him that's been waiting years to come out, and in this world, Izuku is not saved.

    (Alternatively, the Villain/Vigilante!Izuku fic that I started writing and grew out of my control.)

    Summary

    Izuku Midoriya used to want to be a hero. It seems a distant dream, now, after everything that he's done—after everything that he's been made to do. But it's still there. It's a dim, flickering flame, burning lower by the day.

    He doesn't have time to concern himself with that though, these days he's too focused on staying alive to think too much about what he can never have.

    Then All Might takes a job teaching at UA, and the universe says hey you know what would be fun? What if we fucked Izuku over even more than we already have? and thus, Izuku ends up in the General Education class of UA with strict instructions to report everything he can, because, thank fucking no one, he just can't catch a goddamn break.

    AKA Hisashi Midoriya is a member of one of the most notorious underground supervillain organizations, and Izuku is being forced to help them (even though, trust him, he'd really rather not). Too bad that they don't predict that Izuku's going to get adopted by half the faculty when they send him to spy on the prestigious hero academy.

    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.

    (This story now has a TV Tropes page!)
