    Summary

    To change the course of a life, all it takes is one bad day.
    Or
    After All Might’s rejection, Izuku is rescued from a moment of weakness, not by a hero, but by a criminal just gentle enough to lift his hopes again. And with new friends and renewed hope, there isn’t much a quirkless boy with a mission won’t dare.
    Sometimes heroes…aren’t.

    Summary

    ON HIATUS for a few months

     

    “WHAT in the FUCK is that?” The horrified voice that carried over the general quiet chatter of the rest of the bar’s patrons came from someone near the door, but it could’ve come from any of them.

    Every occupant in the large main room shared the sentiment as they stared at the man? Zombie? Thing that somehow still had orange hair clinking to it’s head shuffled through the front door. The skin on it’s arms and hands was entirely decomposed, leaving the bones to clack against each other ominously while it’s brown, leathery skin creaked with each movement. The only reason the latter was even audible was because the entire bar had gone completely silent.

    “Who the hell sent a bog body here?” A woman with a mutation quirk- she had the head of an aardvark- finally recognized the body for what it was. It was a valid question- the bar wasn’t just any seedy dive bar, it was no man’s land. A place where anyone, regardless of what side of the law they fell on, could meet up with no (or at least very little) fear of attack or reprisal. Anyone who used their quirks (mutation quirks or quirks required to live excluded) or tried to start a fight was met with swift, violent consequences.

    Summary

    “Look,” Kinoshita sighed, “I know my position works against me here, but I genuinely don’t mean any of you malicious harm. Pretty sure Aizawa knows that and that’s why he lets us pester him once a month. If anything, I’m the one keeping the HPSC from being bigger pains towards you.”

     

    “I do.” Shouta suddenly swung himself up into a sitting position. He didn’t swim slowly to consciousness this time- his body only woke him back up once he was fully out of the danger zone so he woke up pretty fast, all told. He was still sore in a few places (all over), but the pain didn’t hold a candle to the agony from earlier. It wouldn’t have mattered if it did; he had bigger priorities to see to. “Izu, are you okay?”

     

    “I’m fine.” Izuku promised the ancient as he hopped off the bed to give his son a once over himself.

    Summary

    Let it be known that Midoriya Izuku will go to great lengths for the sake of analysis. These lengths may include his questionably legal entry into restricted government websites.

    Let it also be known that Midoriya Izuku will go to great lengths to be helpful. These lengths may include vigilantism, and being on a real-name basis with no small number or police, detectives, and heroes.

    Lastly, let it be known that Midoriya Izuku will go to great lengths to not let go of the things he holds dear. Not his dreams, nor his carefully constructed professional connections. These lengths… are somehow more convoluted than the first two. By a long shot.

    Summary

    “I’ll buy you katsudon tonight if you terrorize the staff.” Shouta told Izuku.

     

    “You’re part of the staff now.” Hizashi oh-so-helpfully reminded his husband.

     

    “Yes,” Shouta partially capitulated, “but I’m teaching history, not heroics. I don’t even know anything about heroics, so I don’t know why I’m watching the practical anyways; it’s not like I can weigh in on anything. Might as well be entertained.” Izuku snorted at that, then promptly turned back to getting ready for the entrance exam when Hizashi moved from Unimpressed at Shouta to Unimpressed with him.

     

    “You need to be aware if any of the students are sorcerers, or at least using sorcery instead of quirks.” Hizashi turned back to the grumpy, equally unimpressed Shouta. He had to wake up early for this, and he was pretty sure it was only because Nedzu wanted to gossip like old men. Just because Shouta was as old as he was didn’t mean he appreciated his new boss pulling him out of bed early for that reason.
