Summary
“What’s the last thing you remember?” Hizashi asked again, snapping Shouta out of his thoughts.
“I went out on patrol with Nemuri.”
The blood drained from Hizashi’s face. His eyebrows furrowed. Nemuri took a deep breath and looked him in the eyes.
“That was four months ago, Shouta.”
OR
Eraserhead goes missing during patrol only to return four months later with no memory of what happened, and whoever took him won't let him go so easily. While his students and fellow heroes are all too willing to help him put the pieces together and hunt down those responsible, they'll soon find themselves in way over their heads.

Summary
After the hell that had been his students' first year, it might've been naive for Shouta to hope their second year would be better.
He really shouldn't have been surprised when an outing to the mall ended with him on the verge of bleeding out while trapped under a pile of rubble with Present Mic and a few unlucky students.
These kids can't catch a damn break.

Summary
“I’m retiring,” says Aizawa. “I should’ve retired years ago, but I was too stubborn and that damn motto made me worse. I won't be able walk normally for the rest of my life, but that’s beside the point.”
”The point,” Hitoshi repeats numbly, almost hysterical.
Hitoshi gets a gift.

Summary
Sometimes, Hitoshi pretended that Sensei was his dad. He'd never admit it in a thousand years, but sometimes when Aizawa patted his head or praised him for finally pulling off a move he'd been struggling with — he imagined that Todoroki was right.
Hitoshi always gave off that he was annoyed about Todoroki’s insistence that he was their teacher's secret love child, but in his head, he wished for it more than anything in the world. He wished that it was Aizawa and Yamada that he went home to every night instead of the Fukushimas. That he could call Eri his little sister instead of just someone he wished he could be.
(Or, stuck in an abusive foster home, Hitoshi is on the edge of his rope.)

Summary
Shinsou Hitoshi grew up always being told he was destined to be a villain, and everyone knows a villain can't be a hero.
So he couldn't really be a hero, that's fine. He'd be as close to a hero as a villain could be.
OR
Shinsou becomes a vigilante and is surprisingly good at it.

Summary
“Please…” Shinsou murmured, and Aizawa hated how this time, there was a hint of hope in his voice.
“Shinsou. you. will. never. brainwash me again. Never,” Aizawa said in a deep voice, enunciating each and every word firmly. “If you do, it won’t be without consequences. Am I understood?” Aizawa asked, feeling unbearably sick of himself—sick of how he was making a kid tremble.
“Yes. Yes, sir,” Shinsou said without hesitation, nodding eagerly, as if he feared the opportunity might slip away if he didn’t take it quickly.
Aizawa took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. “I'll take your word for that. But this is the last time I’m so forgiving. There won’t be a next.”
Or,
Aizawa goes undercover to investigate a villain organization. His trainer turns out to be Shinsou, a 15-year-old teenager. Now he has to find a way to work with Shinsou and bring down the organization without blowing his cover and getting them both killed in the process.- Language:
