    Summary

    Izuku Midoriya, son of Inko and Hisashi Midoriya was only four when he realised men were not created equal. The path of a normal family was instantly cut off before it even started.
    “Sorry kid it’s not gonna happen.” The doctor huffs, “Oh dear so you really think there’s something wrong with him then? Most of the other kindergarteners in his class have already begun to show signs.” Inko looked down at the shaking Izuku,
    The doctor continued, “My records say that you’re a fourth generation quirk user. What powers do you and the father have?”
    Inko ponders for a moment, “Nothing too special, I can float small objects towards me, and my husband breathes fire. They’re useful enough I suppose.”
    “Izuku should have already manifested one of these quirks or a combination of both. But after viewing his X-rays I don’t think he’s going to.”

    OR

    In a world that acts cruelly to those who are different we join Izuku Midoriya a quirkless child vigilante working his way up to his dreams. Ensue chaos along side a loving family who show him love is unconditional who want to provide him with a normal (ish) childhood.

    Summary

    Izuku was born quirkless. To be fair the diagnosis was accurate at the time, it just didn’t stay that way for long,

    Through a series of events involving a dying man high on drugs and Izuku’s ability to attract trouble, he finds himself in possession of a seriously overpowered quirk known as All for One. Perhaps it was some form of divine intervention that attempted to keep him quirkless because a quirked Izuku is a terrifying force indeed.

    As Izuku attempts to master this new quirk, much to the distress of all those around him, the villain All for One is forced to come up with an excuse for why he’s now effectively quirkless in this utter mess of crack.

    But Midoriya turns out to be a little harder to hate than Hitoshi expects...

    Summary

    Izuku slowly drifts towards the back edge of the building, as if drawn by some invisible force. He gazes down into the abandoned alley below, full of trash cans and rats most likely. Bakugou's words replay in his head, over and over again.

     

    Take a swan dive off the roof.

     

    For the first time in his life, Izuku doesn't overthink his decision.

    Instead, he pivots on his heel, inching them closer to the edge. With outstretched arms, Izuku tilts his body backward.

    He falls.

     

    TLDR - Izuku decided to take Bakugou’s advice and attempts to kill himself, but the next day he wakes up unharmed and very confused.

    Summary

    Izuku shifted to go in the third window instead of the second - he could drop down one more floor once the hero outside was gone. He used his knife to quickly flip open the lock and slipped inside, shutting the window behind him just in time to see the hero round the corner.

    He let out a sigh of relief and turned around, only to freeze at the sight of two pro-heroes, someone who was probably a hero-in-training, and a little girl in a hospital bed all staring at him.

    “What, exactly, do you think you’re doing?” Eraserhead asked. Casting his gaze quickly to the side, Izuku saw a dark grey owl spirit with glowing red eyes looming over the hero's shoulder. The sharp snap of a beak from the blue, glowing heron spirit in the corner - an aosagibi clearly belonging to the other hero, Present Mic - punctuated his words.

    Summary

    You can't be a hero, they said
    you're useless, they said
    when one is pushed down all their life, the logical course of action would be to give up. And Izuku was so god damn close to doing so. But he didn't. For better or worse (worse, a lot might say, and Izuku might even agree, thought he could never quite bring himself to regret it) his life changed.
    So, Izuku looked back to all the people who told him he was useless, to the fate that seemed to agree that he would never be a hero.
    He showed fate the middle finger and did it anyway

    Summary

    Some AU I came up with:
    Aizawa rescued Izuku from the league of villains and takes care of the child for now. Izuku has two quirks in this AU, one natural - Forced Quirk Activation - and one that AFO 'gifted' him with - Self-Heal. He has a pretty big handprint-scar on his face and started as a problem child, scared and wary of people. But Aizawa managed to help him slowly heal.

    This AU is just some silly little thing I came up in my freetime and like to add to it as I go, so I don't have a plan at all. Mostly I write for fun so I hope you might enjoy this as well :D

    This is a wild collection of chapters, drabbles and short snipplets of Aizawas and Izukus life together :D With some art if I feel like it! :D I'm trying to order the chapters in some kind of consistent timeline.

    Also, this is the first time I actually post stuff here so I'm still figuring everything out - sorry! (To be honest, I have no idea what I'm doing...

    Summary

    Izuku steps towards the other teen, holding his hand out to shake, “I’m Midoriya Izuku by the way. We haven’t officially met yet, right? I don’t remember seeing you at the Entrance Exam?”

    The blue-haired boy pauses, studies his hand uncertainly before shrugging. “Shirakumo Oboro,” he introduces in return, hand phasing right through Izuku’s when he goes to return the handshake. Shirakumo doesn’t seem surprised by it, but Izuku whips his hand back when the intense chill climbs up his arm.

    or,

    Izuku tries to pretend eveything is okay even though his homelife is crumbling around him, there's an insanely powerful Quirk that's not entirely his coursing through his veins, he suddenly knows his childhood hero, All Might, and to top it all off, he seems to have befriend a pastel blue-haired ghost that has way too much insider knowledge on Izuku's new homeroom teacher, and English teacher. He's really just trying to survive Yuuei...

    Summary

    (Formerly known as Into the Deku-Verse)

    Shota sneers at the teenager across from him. His defense raises like the hairs on the back of his neck as he glares steadily, ready and waiting for whatever will come from this encounter. He narrows his gaze when the teen shifts; just the thought of sharing this rooftop with Japan's most notorious villain makes his skin prickle. “Deku.”

    “Y-yes!” the teenager cries out in relief, taking a small step towards Shota, “I’m Deku! I’m so g-glad you—”

    “Deku,” Shota growls darkly, flicking out his capture weapon hastily to snag the villain before he can make his move. He's quick to tug it taut, leaving no room for Deku to escape. “You’re under arrest.”

    “I-I’m what?! W-wait!”

    tl;dr

    Hero Course student Izuku comes to the realization that he is definitely not where he's supposed to be.

    Summary

    Quirks aren't everything in this world, nor is your family status.

    Animals are treated less than humans, even though they have the capacity to feel emotions and think for themselves. They're pushed away, merely because they're not human. Nezu? Heck, he's so smart, everyone's scared of what would happen if they got on his bad side. Half the society, at the very least, still think that he's just an animal.

    Midoriya? No quirk, he's ranked even lower, less than human. At least Nezu still had a quirk.

    At least, that's what they thought.

    Warning: This fic contains depression, suicide, self harm, etc.

    Summary

    Izuku Midoriya's Quirk was...dangerous. Since the age of four he knew what true nightmares were made of. Demons were the soldiers of hell, and they made it their mission to terrify him for fun. Peeling skin, black sillouhettes, and grating screams that froze him in place where only a part of it. Their words and dark hymns followed him, crushing his body and soul.

    But not as much as his mother did. Inko was prone to using her fists and venomous words to beat him down, and she was worse than the demons who followed him day and night.

    "God does not shine upon you,"

    The demons repeated it like a mantra, and they were all right. God hated them all, the fallen wingless angels who he damned for eternity. He loathed Izuku too, the boy who could see them. Izuku was cursed with an uncontrollable Quirk, but he tamed those demons. They were his, and his alone.

    God sneered at him, and he smiled devilishly back. God had given the demons exactly what they needed...

    Izuku Midoriya. A King.

    Yagi Toshinori watched the green haired boy walk away after saving his friend and shook his head. While the boy's actions were heroic, he was just too reckless. He walked in the opposite direction, thinking about a time he could meet the candidate Sir Nighteye put forward.

    Izuku Midoriya goes home and decides that, even if he can't be hero himself, he can still help them with his analysis. Cue Izuku catching the attention of multiple heroes who are a little more open-minded and willing to see the potential in a quirkless kid.
