Summary
Izuku Midoriya was waiting to be saved up until the day he died.
Or at least, he thinks he did. He might have also time traveled. Hopped dimensions. Given everyone around him amnesia, including himself.
The only thing he knows for sure is he’s awakened in a world that’s forgotten him, everything and everyone having changed and moved on.Homeless and on the run, robbed of his life and family, he has no choice but to learn to defend himself—and others—making friends, enemies, and a new family along the way—one he’ll do anything to protect, even it means dying and losing every semblance of himself, including the love of those he’s trying to save.
Vigilante!izuku au with found family, a descent into insanity/villainy, redemption, dadzawa, Dadbi, and a suicidal wannabe hero with no sense of self-preservation.
TLDR; in which immortality comes at a price Izuku isn’t willing to pay, but damn if he’ll let anyone else suffer for it.

Summary
“Why are you telling me this?” Shōta asks calmly, confused.
There’s a beat of silence over the phone.
“You’re your son’s next of kin,” the social worker says slowly, almost accusingly, “you are the listed father on the boy’s birth certificate and since Midoriya Inko is no longer around to care for her child, sole guardianship is appointed to you as next of kin.”
And Shōta’s brain stalls.
His what?

Summary
Kintsugi: The Japanese art form of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with gold. It represents the idea that broken doesn't mean unfixable. That even something shattered can be made into a stronger, more beautiful piece of art.
Izuku knows that life will always be unfair to people like him. He knows that he can't bring his mother back from the dead or make his father love him. He knows he's destined for a life of loneliness and pain. Knows that his goal to be a quirkless hero is nearly impossible.
Izuku knows that he's broken.
But can the people that come into his life help put him back together?
Will Izuku let them?Series

Summary
Izuku was blind, born with a genetic defect that controlled his very life from the moment he opened his eyes.
When his quirk came in, life seemed to be looking up.
He could see!
But as he was deemed to be useless by his classmates, treated unfairly by his mother, and told he was lesser than by all of society, Izuku’s only solace comes in the format of a phone call with his father.
But what if there was another way?
What if he could be what he always wanted to be?

Summary
Izuku was only alive out of spite. He was supposed to die. His mother wanted him dead, his father would have tried to kill him, no doubt. He was confident nobody missed him when he went missing. He was supposed to die.
It hurt, it hurt so fucking bad to think that he wasn't supposed to make it to age eleven. But he was alive and surviving to the best of his ability. He learned how to fight with a knife before he learned how to multiply. He learned how to pickpocket and shoplift before he learned the difference between primary and secondary colors.
Izuku learned how to survive before he learned how to live.

Quirk: Knife! by brightredwings

Summary
Izuku Midoriya is unlucky, to say the least and life hasn't exactly been kind. Things weren't so bad in the beginning, but once he was diagnosed quirkless, well, it all went to shit. Everyone grew to hate him, even his best friend and own father.
Was it really that impossible to become a hero without a quirk? It doesn't really matter because to Izuku, the term hero is flexible. He'll be his own hero because he's learnt from his own experience, people are selfish and the only one he can rely on is himself.
Left alone to fend for himself in the world, Izuku goes out to change things on his own terms, despite his methods being slightly illegal. Keyword, slightly. It's only illegal if he gets caught, right?

Summary
“Can I get a name for that?”
“Bakugo.”
Izuku’s hand froze over the screen. Slowly, he looked up at the customer, his carefully crafted work facade falling.
The boy’s blond spikey hair was sticking out everywhere like an explosion, framing his face and getting in the way of his bright red eyes. The light coming in through the window broke against his UA uniform and his raised arm that was holding his phone, which he hadn’t looked up from once.
Izuku’s voice caught in his throat, but he managed to choke out a stammer.
“K-Kacchan?”
His head shot up and he looked at Izuku for the first time. His eyes widened, but it was impossible to tell what from. Shock? Horror? Recognition? Surprise? Maybe a mix of all of it? His voice came out in a coarse whisper, laden with emotion.
“Deku?”-----------------------------------------------------
After seeing all the issues that her son was going through, Inko decided that enough was enough and moved the two of them away. Izuku took this as an opportunity to cut ties with Kacchan and ended up working at a local cafe. But, what he wasn't expecting was that his childhood friend would walk right through the front door four years later.
