    Summary

    This little boy with untamed curls and freckles like stars scattered across a night sky has a mind bigger than most kids his age and, Hisashi thinks, a heart bigger than anyone's. He is built from chaos, born with the intention of bloodlust and to exist with everyone below him. Yet, he was raised by nature's lily pads and grass and the soft greens of a much kinder world. A blade melts down to jewels in this boy's hands.

    He is nothing like his father.

    [aka the story of how Midoriya Izuku taught All For One what it means to love.]

    Summary

    During a routine sparring match with Bakugou, Izuku unlocks a power he didn’t know he had. While he tries to navigate his new quirk, he learns secrets about both the quirk and how All for One has used it, and that some people stick by you no matter what kind of horror you have the possibility to do or become. Most of all, he just tries to save people.

    —-

    I made a one shot about Izuku having the AfO quirk and suddenly we’re here. Anyways, read these in order, they follow a timeline and would make the most sense that way!

    Summary

    “Deku.” He says the old nickname like a statement of fact.

    Izuku—who really should have seen this coming—looks around frantically, making sure that no one hears. He feels himself go bright red.

    “Don’t call me that.”

    Midoriya Izuku has a boring desk job pushing papers and filing claims at the Hero Public Safety Commission. Or at least, everyone thinks he does.

    Pro Hero Dynamight has incredible attention to detail. So why is he at the Commission office renewing his hero license a whole month late?

    or: a weird coincidence throws Izuku and Katsuki back together after ten years apart. Katsuki is being very brave about it.

    Summary

    Red Hood died when the Dimensional Transporter exploded, snarling in the face of the Regime. Several dimensions away Izuku Midoriya woke up with skills he didn’t remember learning, memories that definitely weren’t his, and half an answer to the question that had plagued him all his life: can someone without a Quirk be a hero?

    Summary

    In one world, a long life filled with war and violence comes to a quiet, peaceful end. It’s not a life without regrets, but he’d long ago made peace with them.

    In another, two lives take their first breaths minutes apart. The first announces his arrival at the top of his lungs. The second regards the world with a sleepy calm.

    “Huh,” Mitsuki says, staring down at the newborns in her arms. The screeching one’s hair is the same shade of blond as her own, while the other’s is a pale silver instead. Not a color that runs in either of their families, but stranger things have happened. “Guess they’ll be easy to tell apart, at least.”

    --

    In which Hatake Kakashi is reincarnated as Bakugou Katsuki's twin brother. Katsuki's life is about to get a whole lot more annoying.
